I have a question is there a item that grants the user the levitate ability or is there a Move other than magnet rise?
Yeah. Keep in mind that Medicham will end up with Truant. Not quite as handy as you'd like.Here's something I've been wondering about for a while.
Say you have a Scarf Medicham with Skill Swap and a Slaking on your side of the field in a double battle. If you use Skill Swap, will it successfully give Slaking Pure Power?
That's probably the only viable solution. Aside from Tracing a Pokemon with levitate, but that's limited to a small pool of pokemon that aren't really going to benefit from it.Levitate is simpler to obtain compared to slightly similar Flying-type.
~Skill Swap against a Levitate opponent (Double Battle much?)
~using Conversion when a Flying-type move is present in movepool (Smeargle, LOL).
~Arceus or Smeargle with "Judgment + Sky (Flying-type) Plate"
~Oh noez! Kecleon was clobbered with a Brave Bird!
The only differences between Oventom and Motortom is their appearances, and the fact that Oventom gets Overheat, while Motortom gets Leaf Storm. I would say that Motortom makes a good check to bulky waters, especially Swampert. Leaf Storm should be able to OHKO pert if you put some Spa evs in. None of the other forms can do that much to Pert.
Well that's a given. But seeing how diverse the Oven-Tom is, just from having one extra move, I would like to know if Leaf Storm opens him up widely, or at least close to diverse, in compettitive battling. Other than using him tp beat Swampert & Suicune, why should I pick him over Oven?
Well, you'll need the resistances to deal with common offensive types (Rock, Ice, Electric, Dragon, Fighting, Water. Plus others I've forgotten) This usually means at least one: Steel, Ghost, Ground.I'm just starting to feel my way through competitive battling, and I was wondering: Is it better to make sure you have at least one of every type of move on the team, so you can KO anything the opponent throws at you, or to make sure that your team has as many resistances as possible?
I'd like to be able to win with a team I actually like as opposed to one I put together wholly based on strategy.
Does Leech seed effect grass and/or flying types?
Alright, thanks for answering.It does not affect Grass-types, but Flying-types are still affected, yes.
Well, besides the Hypnosis accuracy drop, she was already hit hard in DP with Salamence, Metagross, Tyranitar, etc. gaining much more powerful moves to slam her with and new, much more powerful threats that she just can't deal with.I've been hearing Milotic is now BL, (I seem to remember Milotic was OU before), what changed when Platinum came out, and what did Platinum bring to the metagame?
