I believe this is the last one on the re-breed list. Refrigerate may be slightly better than Snow Warning but, auto-hail still isn't bad as it can break sashes. I see a Rock Polish set on this one.

I saw an interesting mixed Hasty Lead set on Smogon. How about we try that? We already have a full physical and special set and Refrigirate is better for both as it doesn't disrupt your whole team. A Snow Warning lead set sounds pretty good as it gurantees it'll set up Stealth Rock which could be helpful to Hail teams that cant find a Pokemon to do it. You don't see many leads nowadays but they are useful on Weather teams in which HA Aurorus will fight right in.

This thing also gets alot of cool status moves that leads usually want like Encore, Stealth Rock(ofc), as well as Screens and a Counter move. I see this as being the best way to make use of its ability imo.

100% Blizzards alone is not worth using its ability. The Chip damage can be a double-edged sword depending on your team and Blizzard is actually weaker than Refrigirate Hyper Voice and wont go through subs. Modest can still work on a dedicated Hail team though as it will still hit hard and provide another weather set-upper. The Hasty lead set though seemed interesting and thought it was worth a mention though it does look a bit strange at first glace I'll admit.

If we do stick to pure special though I would recommend Timid instead. Its not super fast but if this is on a Hail Team speed is a bit more important as if it can get the KO first when it needs to it will help it last longer which makes you able to keep Hail up longer.

I always up for interesting sets. It could be decent as a Stealth Rock setter.

But I'm not too convinced with Hasty because I feel like it's only limited for Rock Tomb. If people don't want to run Rock Tomb, the attack stat is pretty much useless. I'm ok with Timid though.

aw hails yes!

Since hail isn’t permanent anymore, you’re going to have to switch it in again. So timid. But it’s weak to everything. So a couple points in defense likely will never matter. So hasty.

Honestly, I read that smog review, and I think hasty actually makes sense. The slight decline in an uninvested stat will never matter. But bash is right, hasty is more niche, so I think for the sake of generalization of sets, timid should probably happen. Either way, one set would have to be bred from the other.

I will say Timid just to spare Bash the 6IV breed XD

I'm going for Magnet Rise as the last egg move over Mirror Coat, only because my parent has Discharge, Barrier, Haze, and Magnet Rise. The first two Amaura already have Mirror Coat as the 4th egg move.

If Mirror Coat is really necessary, I guess I can breed that.

I think Mirror Coat is a bit better b/c Sash shenanigans.

If anything Barrier might be the one to replace. I'll add Mirror Coat.
