Contest Beautifly

[Claire Bennet]

Hello, whats a good moveset for a Beauty Contest Beautifly?

[sims796]

Oh. I'm not sure. I don't think we do beauty contest. You might wanna take it to Diamond/Pearl section, I'm not sure.

[Claire Bennet]

This is for Pokemon Emerald though

[sims796]

Ouch. Even worse. I mean, technically its asking for a moveset, but I think we only do battle sets.

Ask a mod to move it-you might not get much help here.

[airconditioning]

I'm pretty sure nobody here cares about Contests, unfortunately.

However, I did find a decent contest moveset for Beautifly...

Sleep Powder
Stun Spore
Shadow Ball
Whirlwind

It's for the Smart contest, though. :(

[Claire Bennet]

Hmm ok but how do I get Shadow Ball?

[airconditioning]

TM30. It teaches Shadow Ball.

[Claire Bennet]

What if I have already used it?

[airconditioning]

I dunno. Breed it on? I really don't know.

[Claire Bennet]

Ok thanks anyway, I'll use the moveset you gave me :)

[ultranerd57]

You might not be checking anymore but you can get Shadow Ball in P/D at the battle tower for 60 BP I think.

[airconditioning]

We're talkin' 3rd gen, here. :P

[El Gofre]

eurgh contests, the only thing between me and the blck trainer card lol

[ultranerd57]

Ok then if you have FR/LG its 4500 in the game corner.

[Claire Bennet]

I'm playing Emerald sorry lol

[sims796]

I have the perfect site. www.serebii.net.

Look at the pokemon of the week. It has battle moves & contest sets.

[Claire Bennet]

Is it a Beautifly this week?

[Faceless*]

No, it's a Dusknoir =(

I'm sorry, I'm no good when it comes to contests, I'm straight out battler

[Claire Bennet]

Hmm where do I get a Heartscale to re-teach my Beautifly Stun Spore? & How do I find out what my Hidden Power type is?

[sims796]

No no, the OLD pokemon of the week. there are two, under the news category:

Pokemon of the week (go here)
4th Gen Pokemon of the week.

4th gen, is obviously new. But the old one has all 3rd gen & under pokes, with movesets, strategies, & contest sets.

[Claire Bennet]

Ok, but where do I get a Heartscale from?

[Faceless*]

Wild Luvdisc, low chance though

Just Thief on the Luvdiscs

[Claire Bennet]

Ok is there any other way though?

[sims796]

Wild Luvdisc, low chance though

Just Thief on the Luvdiscs

No. High chances. Literally 50/50. This is not a lie-like in the thread, "Plz help my team"

[Claire Bennet]

What is a good partner for a Beautifly in a double battle?

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

What is a good partner for a Beautifly in a double battle?

You mean actually battling? Not for contests? If so, beautifly kinda fails in those, sadly.

[Angelic Diablo]

Or you could just use anything with Earthquake... CBDugtrio!!

[Claire Bennet]

I just found out I'm going to fight my friend in a 3 Vs. 3 fight tomorrow so I'm using the Serebii guide & wanted to know two good partners for Beautifly

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

First, you want a CB EQer like CBmence, rhydon, or duggy. The other should be something that covers its weaknesses I suppose...

[Claire Bennet]

Keep in mind the three pokemon all have to be lvl 40 by tomorrow

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Keep in mind the three pokemon all have to be lvl 40 by tomorrow

then you have a serioous problem. Breeding and EVing those pokemon will take too long. you're gonna have to find the best EQers you have and use those.

[Claire Bennet]

I normaly cant EV, so in one day is impossible & I don't want to breed

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

I normaly cant EV, so in one day is impossible & I don't want to breed

That's what I just said :/

you'll have to find a pokemon you already have to use. Or stay up all night, it's your call.

[Claire Bennet]

Would Slaking be a good choice?

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Would Slaking be a good choice?

Yep. Just be sure you have something that can take a hit to switch into attacks, since with slaking, you'll have to switch a lot due to traunt.

[Claire Bennet]

I was actualy using Slaking as he has Hyper Beam, when I use it Slaking needs to recharge he next turn & his ability is activated the same recharging turn

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Yeah, but then CBcross comes in for the OHKO...then again, slaking is the ONLY pokemon that can make use of hyper beam, might as well use it I suppose. What happens when gengar shows up O_O That's the beauty of shadow ball.

[Claire Bennet]

Ok first what is a CBcross & who mentioned a Gengar?

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Ok first what is a CBcross & who mentioned a Gengar?

Choice band heracross.

I mean, if your friend or whoever has a gengar, hyper beam won't do crap to it. Or any ghost, steel, or rock type for that matter.

[Claire Bennet]

He won't use Gengar I know all his pokemon he doesn't have a Gengar his brothers do but they are all tight

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

He won't use Gengar I know all his pokemon he doesn't have a Gengar his brothers do but they are all tight

Eh?

You should still be prepared.

[Claire Bennet]

Ok but is a Seadra a good 3rd pokemon?

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Ok but is a Seadra a good 3rd pokemon?

Wouldn't KINGDRA be better? and it doesn't have many resistances...skarm on the other hand...HAHAHAHAHA

[Claire Bennet]

Ye Kingdra sorry but I don't have time to train a Skarmory to 40 by tomorrow :\

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Ye Kingdra sorry but I don't have time to train a Skarmory to 40 by tomorrow :\

then use kingdra :/

Really ,anything that'll win you the battle. I don't know what you have ready to use by tomorrow, so I can't really help much :/

[Claire Bennet]

Hows my Beautifly's moveset so far?
Gust
Morning Sun
Silver Wind
Whirlwind
The only problem is if I take out Gust for Stun Spore I will only have 1 attacking move & after all this is a battle moveset we're talking about for the meanwhile

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Morning sun is bad, especially on pokemon as fragile as beautifly. I's resort to smogon or serebii, as I can't really help on beautifly.

[Claire Bennet]

How about this moveset?
Silver Wind (Main Attack)
Attract
Stun Spore
Whirlwind
This moveset is a mini-annoyer

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Whirlwind...it's too fragile to use it as well. Annoyers genrally fail...

I'd use a double powder set with sleep powder over attract. Whirlwind should be replaced, and silver wind is kinda "meh." again, go to serebii or smogon for a good set.

[Claire Bennet]

Beautifly can't learn Sleep Powder, only Stun Spore

How about this Kingdra moveset?
Twister
Agility
Surf
(Filler Move)

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Beautifly can't learn Sleep Powder, only Stun Spore

No.......

Kingdra @ Leftovers
Trait: Swift Swim
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SAtk / 4 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Rain Dance
- Hidden Power [Electric]
- Surf
- Ice Beam

FTW

[Claire Bennet]

The problem is I already used the TM for Rain Dance & Ice Beam on other pokemon :\

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

You can get ice beam at the game corner...and there are a few water types that learn rain dance. Breed with horsea to get it as an egg move (it passes TM moves) and then teach it ice beam.

[Claire Bennet]

Ok I'll get Ice Beam but I don't have enough time to breed Horsea sorry

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Ok I'll get Ice Beam but I don't have enough time to breed Horsea sorry

You aren't gonna get anywhere without breeding :/ fior short-term fine, but for future reference, you need to breed.

[Claire Bennet]

Could you give me a good moveset for Marcargo please?

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Could you give me a good moveset for Marcargo please?

Woah! didn't see that coming...wow, talk about a terrible pokemon...I'll give it my best:

Magcargo @ Leftovers
Trait: Flame Body
EVs: 252 HP / 128 Def / 128 SAtk
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Flamethrower
- Reflect
- Yawn
- Substitute

A totally random, probably-terrible set I came up with. It's a bad pokemon...

[Claire Bennet]

What pokemon do you suggest to go with Beautifly & Kingdra?

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

What pokemon do you suggest to go with Beautifly & Kingdra?

A rock resist...probably a dual wall rock resist, like swampert, though it's more of a tank...donphan perhaps...Registeel works, though most peopel think it sucks. EQ weak, so yeah...

[Claire Bennet]

Ok out of the ones you mentioned I only have Donphan what is a good moveset for him?

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Ok out of the ones you mentioned I only have Donphan what is a good moveset for him?

Donphan @ Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 96 Atk / 160 Def
Impish / Adamant Nature
- Rapid Spin
- Resy
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide

FTW

[Claire Bennet]

Ok so all three of my pokemon do I give them all Leftovers? & By Resy do you mean Rest?

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Ok so all three of my pokemon do I give them all Leftovers? & By Resy do you mean Rest?

Resy? yeah, time for me to go to bed...but yes, rest. Leftovers is the most common item you'll find anywhere, especially in 3rd gen.

[Claire Bennet]

How do I get more than one Leftovers?

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

O_O

Like I know...I play on Netbattle. Out of all of them, donphan needs lefties the most. kingdra can survive on a lum berry. Beautifly is doomed anyways, I don't care what you use. Maybe a...berry of some sort...

[Claire Bennet]

I'm lucky I'm the Berry Master I have loads of berries :P

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

I'm lucky I'm the Berry Master I have loads of berries :P

Most of which are uselss for battling, sadly.

If only it could learn trick, it might be good for something...

[Claire Bennet]

What doe trick do again? Doesn't it heal them afew turns later?

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

What doe trick do again? Doesn't it heal them afew turns later?

That would be wish...

Trick is useful for switching items, so you can make blissey hold a choice band. it's quite a fun startegy to use.

[Claire Bennet]

Ah Ok, hmm I'll use a berry for my Beautifly

[Anti Pop Culture Warrior]

Ah Ok, hmm I'll use a berry for my Beautifly

Lum probably. that or a pinch berry I guess.

[Claire Bennet]

Hmm ok got to wait as I'm growing about maybe like 30 Lum berries at the moment :D

Edit: I'm cloning for three Leftovers lol
