Octillery, The Jet Pokémon. It instinctively sneaks into rocky holes. If it gets sleepy, it steals the nest of a fellow Octillery. It traps enemies with its suction cupped tentacles then smashes them with its rock-hard head. Its instinct is to bury itself in holes. It grabs onto its foe using its tentacles. It tries to immobilize it before delivering the finishing blow. If the foe turns out to be too strong, It spews ink to escape.

Strategy Using Octillery
Octillery is one of those mysterious pokemon that were
given a movepool that makes no sense (though Octillery
is still an awesome pokemon).
Both of its offensive stats are equally high, though
just to screw over Octillery's nice offensive stats
and pretty good movepool, it was given poor speed.
Just so you know, this set is screwed against other
Water types, so you may want to include HP Grass to
deal with them.
Octillery is definately going to have trouble going
first, with or without Thunderwave, but Thunderwave
has been included for the 25% chance of stalling your
opponent so you can attack.
Octillery makes an equally good physical sweeper too,
with moves such as Screech, Rock blast, Sludge bomb,
Return.
EV Corner:
Max out the EVs in Special Attack and HP for Octillery with any remaining in Defense
Strategy Against Octillery
Octillery is one of those 'what is Nintendo thinking?'
Pokémon as far as its move pool goes. It has access to
Thunder Wave (for some reason), Psychic (does it look
Psychic?), Fire Attacks (again, ><) as well as some
less noticeable moves that seem extremely odd (Bullet
Seed for example, it just makes no sense).
- Anyway, a water type capable of setting up Sub
before Octillery can use thunder Wave would be an
effective way to go, since a Water type who can do
that holds a resistance to all of Octillery's standard
attacks (especially Starmie and Slowbro/king who
resist the lesser used Psychic).
- Being a pure water type makes it weak to Grass and
Electric attacks, although a Grass type would be weak
to Ice and Fire unless said Grass type had a resistant
dual type, so STAB Thunderbolt is likely to be the
most effective attack to use, although with below
average HP, Defence and Special Defence you shouldn't
have a hard type with Octillery if you use a decent
sweeper.
Contest Moveset
A good Contest Moveset for Octillery would have to be this for the Cool Contest best with Lonely, Adament, Naughty or Brave Nature:
