Why would i use a Lapras in OU? :/...lol
Is Honchkrow a weak pokemon? I'm asking because honchkrow has low def. and low sp.def, and it's speed is..... well...... not greater enough if you know what I mean. If a Honchkrow is not that weak, then how is it not? I mean like which is the best nature and best moveset with the ability superluck? And has anyone on this site ever used a honchkrow in battle before?
Comments in bold.I want to EV train a Shedinja. I have caught a lot of nincadas and bred some of them to get better IVs. I'm down to two, but i can't decide whether I want to use the one with a Lonely or Naive nature. I want it to have the attack power to deal a good amount of damage, but I also want it to be fast enough to stike first on some pokemon.
Lonely is the best Nature for Shedinja because he's already slow anyway.
I am making it evolve at Level 25 so that Swords Dance is passed on. I plan on giving it a 252atk-252spe-6spa spread. Here are the current stats:
Nincada1 - Level 24 - Lonely - Strong Willed
Stats: 51 35 47 25 26 29
Possible Avg. IVs: 10 24 22 25 29 22
Nincada2 - Level 24 - Naive - A Little Quick Tempered
Stats: 49 33 53 22 20 33
Possible Avg. IVs: 02 28 22 12 17 26
I also evolved both of them into Shedinja w/rare candy, recalculated the stats, and reset:
Shedinja1 - Level 25 - Lonely - Strong Willed
Stats: 01 61 29 26 27 30
Possible Avg. IVs: 15 25 23 25 29 21
Shedinja2 - Level 25 - Naive - A Little Quick Tempered
Stats: 01 56 32 22 21 34
Possible Avg. IVs: 15 25 19 09 17 25
Movest: Swords Dance, Sucker Punch / Shadow Sneak, X-Scissor, Aerial Ace/Will-o-Wisp
I may be making this more complicated than it really is...
Also, should I EV train it as a nincada or as a shedinja?
Doesn't matter as long as you never gave it EVs when leveling it to evolve it.
Anyways, any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,

Heatran, Jolteon, Latias, Rotom-A, Starmie, Zapdos, Magnezone, etc.What are some good counters for Skarmory's Taunt set?
186 Atk vs 176 Def & 334 HP (70 Base Power): 81 - 96 (24.25% - 28.74%)Can a Magnet Pull Probopass KO Skarmory using Power Gem?
Use 156 HP / 252 SpA / 100 Spe as the EV spread, that one is outdated and doesn't outrun the standard Metagross anymore.So I guess Magnezone is a better choice. He can trap Skarmory, and then KO it with Thunderbolt, am I correct?
Magnezone @ Leftovers
172 HP / 252 SpA / 84 Spe
~ Substitute
~ Magnet Rise
~ Thunderbolt
~ Hidden Power Ice / Hidden Power Grass
Is there another attack I can use instead of HP Ice or HP Grass?
Well you NEED superpower on any Scizor set or you are utter steel bait. Use SD/ bug bite or roost/SuperPower or Brick Break/Bullet Punch.
Also, is it just me or does this have quite a bit of potential ?
Lapras@Leftovers
248 HP / 204 DEF / 56 S.DEF
Careful / Calm nature
Trait : Water Absorb
- Block
- Protect
- Sing
- Perish Song
Sing the obvious fighting type/counter and then Block your secondary counter and then Perish Song and Protect and wait for it to run out and switch on the last turn. Fun, no ? XD
Yes, for the higher damage output.And I would be using Modest Nature for this set?
Another quick question, on the standard DDMence set, can Fire Blast be replaced with Fire Fang?
I'm thinking of doing this because I currently have 24 SpA EVs on Salamence. I was thinking of removing these EVs and maxing out Atk and using Fire Fang to maximize the power of my other moves. Does this sound like a reasonable thing to do?
