To setup in Stadium, you need to roll a 2 or a 3 on your Spore roll. That isn't bad: that's 75% of the time (versus Sleep powder's 50%, with a 25% "0" (failure)). In R/B/Y it's a lot better for both of them. The point: You don't have much time to setup in Stadium so a fast acting stat mod like Sword's Dance would probably be a better call. I don't think Leech Life is worth the bits that encode it, but some people can win with it: it's just that Body Slam does almost 3x the damage (Body Slam still has the edge on psychics, but it's by less, but Leech Life is definitely better versus Grass / Poison), and the life sucking action of that just doesn't make up for it in my opinion. I can't honestly say don't use SD/Leech Life or Growth/Mega Drain, but I suggest you reconsider using something like SD/Body Slam.His strength is Spore, in my opinion, and that's the true reason to use him... ------------------

I'd go with growth on this one. People always seem to forget that Parasect isn't just a mewtwo killer. He's actually pretty useful against a lot of different types because of Spore. He could probably take Toby out with Slash. Just watch out for fire and poison. Both 4x damage. So for a non mewtwo killing, more all around Parasect, I'd go with
Spore
Slash
Growth
Mega Drain
In ALL sect movesets...he NEEDS sub/DT..because when they wake up,they are ALWAYS faster,so will will kill you in one hit... ------------------

I would use Spore/Sub/H-Beam/Swords Dance or Body Slam.Leech Life is wayyyyyyyyyyyy too weak. More movesets: Spore/DT/Growth/Mega Drain Spore/DT/Sub/Slash Caos2 ------------------

Parasect is super good, a really top-tier pokemon. I consider him offensive top-tier, which makes him even rarer, although he can be used as defensive top-tier as well.There are many great movesets with Parasect and I won't disagree with any moveset. I personally consider the best moveset to be Slo Migs moveset, followed CLOSELY by Argo's #1 moveset. Slo Migs made the most important point, Parasect is so great that he isn't just a Mewtwo killer. He can kill almost anything (except Double Teamers) with a little luck. He could kill Double Teamers too with Swift + Swords Dance, but then his defenses would be too sucky and he'd get crushed. Don't forget Growth has a LOT of defensive value on it's own. Not only does it power up your Mega Drain so you can get more life, it buffs up your Special defenses till you are near invulnerable to Special attacks. Growth + Spore + Mega Drain can be enough defense by itself. If you use DT/Sub as your 4th move, it makes you a defensive MegaDrainer. If you use Slash as your 4th move, you've got a super offensive Parasect, who still has decent defenses. ------------------
