PvE Analysis

Mesprit has middling attack, middling defense, and middling stamina. While it's not necessarily terrible, it's not particularly exciting either. Higher Psychic-type DPS than Lugia, but lower than even Confusion/Psychic Gardevoir. If you have access to Alakazam or Espeon, I have a feeling you'll want to leave the Emotion Pokémon on the bench.

Best PvE Offensive Moveset

Confusion + Future SightBest
  • Confusion is the superior fast move on offense.
  • Extrasensory falls behind, but not by much. 
  • Future Sight benefits from STAB and is Mesprit's highest DPS moveset.
  • Blizzard lacks STAB and doesn't suit Mesprit's role. 
  • Swift lacks STAB and can't be Super Effective vs anything.

PvP Analysis

Confusion + Swift and Blizzard

Confusion sports significantly stronger damage output than Extrasensory, though the latter generates energy slightly faster. 

Swift is Mesprit's cheapest Charged Attack, padding up its otherwise clunky moveset, but it isn't very strong. Blizzard costs the most amount of energy, but provides useful coverage and can also deal significant damage if unshielded. Future Sight benefits from STAB to threaten considerable damage, but demands a lot of energy to use and doesn't provide coverage.

Great League

The 'M' in Mesprit stands for mid, and it's a mostly an apt description. Middling stats, middling moves, middling typing - Mesprit isn't going to be making waves without a significant move update.

Ultra League

Mesprit falls behind other bulky Psychic Pokemon like Cresselia or Armored Mewtwo in this league, and is strictly an inferior pick due to its slow access to costly charge moves. Confusion hits hard when it has a typing advantage, but the same can be said for other Psychic-types as well. 

Master League
The only league in which the 'M' in Mesprit doesn't stand for mid. It stands for miserable.
