Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
ideally they shouldn't show up as moves at all. and what do you mean about bidoof? if you're asking about how simple works, i've answered that in the FAQ: the boosts are treated like normal stat boosts and thus are doubled by simple.
yes, i was asking about simple. thanks for the explanation.
will you receive the boosts every time you switch in?(i'm assuming you would; just making sure)
spectral thief seems pretty good, even though only smeargle could use it.
btw sorry about not capitalizing properly, i'm using a device where the shift key is weird.
== Boomburst
== Flamethrower
== Surf
== Special Attack
With Specs and a positive nature, Exploud is coming close to 700 Special Attack when switching in. STAB Boomburst off that will hurt. Pity it's never better than neutral.

quite an interesting concept, could see some potential threats in a couple mons, lycanroc dusk i doubt would have to much of an issue here, gaining an attack buff to help its already insane damage off of accelrock or crunch. although losing out on stealth rocks can harm some sets...
Normal Chansey set, but now a lot harder to hurt.
252 Atk Life Orb Lucario Close Combat vs. +1 248 HP / 252+ Def Eviolite Chansey: 400-476 (56.8 - 67.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
random calc but also that, compared to this
252 Atk Life Orb Lucario Close Combat vs. 248 HP / 252+ Def Eviolite Chansey: 601-710 (85.4 - 100.9%) -- 6.3% chance to OHKO
so yeah

Ok I wanted this before on her, but school y'know.
+1 252 EVs, 31 IVs, Scarf Araq p much outspeeds the whole unboosted OU meta.
I get you're saying "but people can get free stat boosts." The only issue with this is, not a lot of mons will. This is thing outspeedsMega Alakazam and Mega Aerodactyl. And I'm p sure people don't wanna lose coverage on a super fast mon already.
For picky people, if the opponent is at +1, which could be scarf or "Speed", then it outspeeds anything below base 125 speed. That's still a lot, with only threats that include Megas and Koko.
also if you want, this is what I used: http://choicescarf.com/ p good site if I say so myself.
