Starmie has analytic even though its get max evs in speed and also get timid.

Starmie @ Life Orb
Ability: Analytic
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
- Psyshock
- Thunderbolt

It doesn't make sense because with all of that it would have a speed of 361. Although not extremely fast, it can still out speed some pokemon. Also since it's not a set upper( it doesn't set up) natural cure would be better.

Analytic also triggers if Starmie forces the opposing Pokemon out (the condition is not "Pokemon attacks after its opponent", the condition is "Pokemon attacking is the final thing taking place in this turn", so it also works on switches, and in double battles it only works if the Pokemon moves 4th), so Starmie can actually get pretty decent mileage out of it.

For future reference you can post small fixes to the dex here, rather than make a new thread every time: http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/small-objective-changes-typos-poor-wording-etc.3618600/
