  • Is my team okay for competitive battling?

    Blazer/Typhlosion
    Rash nature, somewhat vain
    Lead Powerhouse, takes out Pokemon with Choice Scarf Blast Burn

    Yoko/Gothitelle
    Naughty nature, strong willed
    Staller, confuses opponents

    Dono/Sandslash
    Bold nature, capable of taking hits
    Staller, avoids attacks and strikes hard.

    Tsui/Serperior
    Rash nature, alert to sounds
    Powerhouse, takes out opponents with swift speed and Leaf Blade
    Or Aerial Ace.

    Preyo/Gyarados
    Sassy nature, alert to sounds
    Powerhouse, Secondary Leader, spams Thunderbolt and Surf with a high Special Atk.

    Aero/Togekiss
    Quiet nature, capable of taking hits
    Healer, heals party and also serves as a Tank.

    So, waddaya' think?

    Unfortunately no. Most of their natures are terrible for competitive battling. Gyarados specializes in Attack, not Special Attack. I suggest reading our stickies and possibly doing some research on Smogon to get a better idea of the metagame. :)

  • Oh. Ok.
    It's just that I battled my friend with Gyara as lead and managed to KO 5 with just Thunderbolt and Surf. That's all.

  • Well, since this is the in-game help forum, Natures don't really matter for in-game battles, or at least they never have for me. Let's not worry about natures for now. Just post their movesets and we'll go from there.
