So right now I have an Alakazam with Timid nature (speed+/attack- ) and is EV trained for Sp. Att. and Speed. Works quite well in the Battle Frontier, usually never faints throughout the whole series of battles.

I have him equipped with Focus Sash, if it matters, I'm debating whether or not if I should retrain another with Modest nature with Sp. Att. and Speed EV's or if I should stick with Timid and EV for Defense and Sp. Att. I like my Alakazam always attacking first and one-shotting most of the time, but I'm wondering what would be the all-around best.
Because as with Focus Sash, I'm 99% of the time guaranteed a 2 hit minimum, so I'm not sure if I should train for Defense or not.

Any ideas?

Don't go defense. Alakazam was built for sweeping.

so then should I stick with Timid nature, or go for Sp Att. with Modest?

I would go Modest personally.

i think you should just give up, cuz my gallade and drapion (more like dRAPEion) will pwn u tonight..
thats right. REMATCH!

i lost last nite, cuz i wasnt ready for dragonite, but i can hide a few tricks up my sleeves, too..
