Along with Banette, this week special "Hidden Ability" Togekiss becomes available. Unlike Banette, where it's a direct download for a certain period of time; you'll be able to raise a set similar to the one below, on your birthday! When you register your "Dream World" account online, be sure to insert your birthday for a big Wi-Fi surprise. I reiterate this Wi-Fi gift is only available for Black & White and cannot be transferred to a previous generation games. Super Luck is this Modest Master's altered ability, granting higher Critical Hit-Ratios.

Moveset Sidenotes:
In complete antithesis to the other Ev Trained Pokemon of the Week, Togekiss packs a wallop with a large move pool. This kiss of death as I like to call him, is one of my favorite Meta game team members. Amazing Special Attack that can One Hit-Ko most, so long as it's Super Effective. Additionally it packs extra bulk for sustaining any feeble attempts at retaliation from your opponent. When looking at Togekiss' movesets consider what your team is lacking in powerful sweeping type advantage. To play it safe and get a feel for the power of this poke, try creating an Elemental set comprised of Heat Wave, Magical Leaf, Water Pulse, and Roost. While these aren't Togekiss' main power moves (except for Heat Wave), they will give you ample coverage against any type you come across. Roost works especially well in this Poke because of its optional bulky stats letting it stay in the match for the long run, rather than a quick slash.
If pure power is your prowess than consider re-organizing its Evs towards only Speed, Special Attack, and the remaining on Hp. Truly the reason this Poke is so fun to train and use in Meta game, is you don't know what to expect. All you can count on, is that the move will be quite caustic to any members ill-prepared to pwn a flying type. The set suggested above gives you great coverage against types like Fighting, Grass, Ice, Poison, Steel, Rock, Bug, ect the list carries on! To avoid having a move "brick" on you, switch Psychic for Shadow Ball. It still gives you the chance of lowering foe's Sp.Def, but it won't be negated with a Dark Type or stalled with a Psychic on your opponent's team. Have fun safe in the knowledge that additionally with this particular kiss, critical hits are increased in ratio due to Super Luck. Thankfully Tms are now reusable in fifth generation, which makes experimenting with your Moveset a lot less painful.
Conclusion:
Hands down, this Pokemon is close to my heart! I've swept many with my personal "DreadBlimp," and such a sweeper can be yours, as soon as your Birthday roles around! Expect to see many more of these scary sweepers in today's Meta Game. Keep on testing and very little will go array. Always know that Togekiss is designed for Special Attack, so you may be wasting your time trying alternate physical sets. Even so, I always encourage testing of any type, whether it seems logical or not. You never know what kind of loop you could send your opponents on when you shock them with an alternate unexpected set. If you come up with your own Ev set for this sweeper, feel free to comment within the Blog itself and spread the insight. That does it for your double does of Ev Training Trials, until next week, I'm DeoGenZ; peace=D
I personally prefer Serene Grace over Super Luck, mainly for flinchax from Air Slash. Also, I don't believe you can teach a Dream World Togekiss Heat Wave because the tutor is in Gen IV. Flamethrower is probably a good substitute for it, though.
