Need Help!

[Lanturn_Trainer]

Can some one help me with movesets for these Pokemon

-Meganium
-Pidgeot
-Lanturn
-Donphan
-Flareon

And I need help with my 6th pokemon. I don't know who to use.

Meganium:
Giga Drain/Razor Leaf
Counter
Leech Seed/Light Screen
Synthesis

Leech Seed is a bred-on move and Counter is from a Move Tutor.

Pidgeot
Don’t use Pidgeot. Dodrio is way better. Either way, they both have similar movesets (except Pidgeot can’t learn Drill Peck).

Dodrio:
Drill Peck
Return
Steel Wing
Quick Attack

Lanturn:
Surf
Thunderbolt
Ice Beam/Confuse Ray
Thunder Wave

Donphan:
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Rapid Spin
Roar

Flareon:
Flamethrower/Fire Blast
Return
Shadow Ball
Quick Attack

Your team needs a Pokemon that can take special hits. A Snorlax is a good choice:

Snorlax:
Body Slam
Curse
Shadow Ball/Earthquake
Rest

Thanks, aragornbird. I appreciate your help, but do you have any other suggestions besides adding snorlax. For example are there any alternatives to snorlax. I was thinking about adding Ursaring, but I don't know if he would work.

No, Ursaring is just a power house. Regice is a great alternative.

Regice@Leftovers
Ice Beam
Thunderbolt
Thunderwave (If you have emerald)
Rest

There's also Blissey if you like that:

Blissey @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
- Aromatherapy
- Seismic Toss
- Softboiled
- Ice Beam / Thunder Wave / Counter

again, pointless ingame. Just use Sorlax

[Lanturn_Trainer]

Allright, thanks guys. I'll get on it.

Sorry friend, that is not good advice. You are breaking many rules in Pokemon team-building, such as never use two attacking moves of the same type on a single Pokemon and never use Hyper Beam since it’s a terrible move.

What about that shuckle thing, think that was the pokemon with the highest defence and special defense in the game ? please don't shout at me if I'm wrong :S or Grumpig has a decent Special defence (I know coz I used to have one)

[shanecdavis]

Even though the Shuckster has max defenses, its HP and attacks are too low for it to be of any use. Does anyone even use it in UU?????

[aragornbird]

~*^*~~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~~*^*~

No because Shuckle sucks badly.

Who cares if it has the highest defenses in the game? It also has the lowest HP (Shedinja doesn’t count since it at least has Wonderguard). Using a Shuckle is like saying, “Hi, Steel-types, please come in because I can’t do anything to you!”

Make sure to have a devestating attack for every pokemon. Delibird is only there because you only have 2 pokemon who were not weak against water. Very bad team, you should rethink the balance. I see that this is a most likely silver/gold/christal team, so i only used genreration 2 tm's.

[aragornbird]

~*^*~~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~~*^*~

What?!? Delibird?
Delibird sucks. It’s one of the worst Pokemon out there. It’s not weak against Water but it still dies to Surf and Hydro Pump in one hit because its Special Defense and HP are so low. Seriously, you can do way better than that.
And besides, he doesn’t have that big of a Water weakness. Lanturn resists it and Snorlax resists it with its high HP and Special Defense.

~*^*~~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~~*^*~

[Johnny Boy~]

There is no snorlax on his team.
Pokemon who are week against water
Flareon
Donphan
Probally pidgeot, onsidering most water pokemon have ice attacks
Pokemon who are not
Meganium
Lanturn
Pidgeot, if not battling a water with ice attacks.

Stop critisizing my post and post your own, aragonbird.

[Kataphraktoi]

Con, delibird is so weak that it will go down to anything, and cant hurt poke it super effective on. look at its stats

45\55\45\75\65\45

extremely low in every category

[Johnny Boy~]

The only reson i posted delibird is that it was the only gsc pokemon i could find without it's magor type already used in group. post a moveset, will ya!

[shanecdavis]

Sorry, but Delibird doesn't have a good moveset and that is why no one bothered to post one. AB suggested Snorlax as the sixth member of the team since Lanturn_Trainer only posted five.

Seriously Con, you really need to handle criticism better. Take the suggestions to heart and it will make you a better trainer for it.

Shuckle is better than you might think actually

Shuckle is what I call a "staler" Pokemon. well my brother has one in level 100 and here was her defenses
Sp. Def- 700+
Def. - 700+
Well I can't remember the number exactly but still. If you give it good moves like Toxic, Subsitute and Protect then your fine. Thats why when a Pokemon has very high defenses they usually give them those moves

:t003:Dark Venusaur

[shanecdavis]

That still doesn't make Shuckles very good. Spikes/Roar ruins its day.

[Kataphraktoi]

Um no dark venesaur, shuckles defenses\special Def are maxed at around 614 with a nature boost, and only one at a time. for example, Calm+252 EV's in SpDef gives 614 SpecDef and 252 ev's in defenses give 559 def, or the other way around.

Two words: Seismic Toss.
