Unown
Type: Psychic
Abilities: Levitate
Stats:
HP: 48
Attack: 72
Defense: 48
Special Attack: 72
Special Defense: 48
Speed: 48
Description: Unown was already an unfortunately limited Pokemon to begin with; only having access to Hidden Power as a move, plus below average stats really hurt it. It's taken yet another blow in Generation Six due to the nerfing of Hidden Power to 60 Base Power. It's still a cute little Pokemon, but only use as a Gimmick.
Set #1: Choice Specs
EVs: 252 HP, 252 SpA, 4 Spe
Nature: Modest (+ SpA, - Atk)
Item: Choice Specs
Ability: Levitate
Moves:
Hidden Power (Psychic) / Hidden Power (Ice) / Hidden Power (Fire)
Set Description: There's really not much Unown can do bar fire off Specs boosted Hidden Powers. Whatever HP type you use depends on the coverage you need; Psychic is STAB, and Ice / Fire are the more reliable HP types. Switch it in on a predicted Ground type move or a move in which you'll know he can take. Speed EVs aren't necessary because you won't be outspeeding anything with 48 base speed.
Other Options: Choice Scarf is plausible but the lack of power would be sorely noted. There's really no point to using any other item that isn't a gimmick on Unown.
