    Use Gyarados, Aerodactyl, or Infernape :P

    I have two of those. Gyarados and infernape. guess i need to count on gyarados. but he can always switch his team around. duggy's got stone edge. as i figured out when i battled him.

    GG, Beasty. All I can say is that your Electivire better be EV trained in Special Attack, and at least a neutral nature. Never in all my battles have I seen an Electivire OHKO Skarmory, even with Thunderbolt (does about 80% from the few times It's happened) but not an OHKO).

    great battle richard!
    :)
    my electivire has about 148 evs in sp attack and its naughty nature.
    i only use him to kill skarmbliss.
    i dont know how many people have been clobbered by him.
    did you really suspect me of cheating?
    :(

    Well, rarely do I come across an Electivire with Thunderbolt, and when I have it's done average damage to Skarmory; enough to survive it. It's never OHKOed him before, so a red flag was raised in my brain.

    But regardless, that totally screwed me up. Facing Heracross without Skarmory really sucks for me. Next time you better try something new, otherwise it would be too easy to predict! Now that I know you run a SkarmBliss killer, I'll have to be extra careful.

    yeah, i understand.
    electivire is the perfect skarmbliss killer if you train it right.
    nobody expects thunderbolt from it cause everyone trains it in attack.
    i guess you havent battled any true skarm killing electivires....
    an ev trained stabbed thunderbolt completely destroys skarmory.
    ive wrecked countless skarmories with him, so its nothing new to me.


    anyway, that was a good battle richard, thank you.
    i cant wait for the next one!
    :)

    I do admit, I made some poor choices (like trying to bank on Megahorn missing to OHKO with Aerial Ace), and thinking Spiritomb could survive one of them. I hate Heracross, and without Skarmory it makes it extremely difficult for me. Now that I think of it, I should have just Thunder Waved him with Blissey (she would have survived Megahorn, if by a few) while he was locked into it and proceed to pwn with Dugtrio (Thunder Wave raises attack, yes, but it also still cuts Speed).

    Ah well, as I often say, Skarmory is the glue of my team, so losing her often screws me up BAD.

    yeah i saw, skarmory really is the backbone to your team.
    i was focused on taking it out the whole time or else i wouldnt really be able to do anything.
    (since my whole team is pretty much phys attackers)
    i got some major hax in that battle too, like being paralyzed three times in a row.
    but i predicted you pretty well i think.
    that was a fun battle.
    i cant wait for our next one.
    :)

    see you later richard.

    lol so true.

    "Wtf, when did Skarmory faint?" XDDDD

    that had to be the funniest thing.

    haha, it wasn't funny at the time! I seriously forgot she fainted, and when I went to switch... whoops, Skarm gone. Bad. I had no one to counter whoever was out.

    But anyways, to kick off my final night before college starts again, I'll be open for a few battles.

    Any takers?
