3rd Gen The Team Help Thread

[Swift!]

I need some help with a team I'm considering putting together;

I need help with the two last spots, I was thinking of placing Jhoto pokemon but I might need to replace two for the Elite Four.

If you teach Earthquake to Onix and Shadow Ball to Flareon, then you'll only have to worry about Normal, Dragon & Dark (that is, as long as all your other Pokemon have at least one attack of their type). The last three types can be taken care of with a Fighting-type and either an Ice-type or a Dragon-type.

Would you recommend I get a Primeape to cover the Normal types?

Would you recommend I get a Primeape to cover the Normal types?

Either that or a Machoke/Machamp.

So, I haven't been able to beat the elite four, and I'm looking to fill my final two spots.

Vaporeon [66]: Surf, Auroa Beam, Double-Edge, Hydro Pump
Charizard [55]: Fly, Flamethrower, Earthquake, Overheat
Victribell [60]: Sunny Day, Solar Beam, Razor Blade, Giga Drain
Dragonair [51]: Shock Wave, Dragon Rage, Surf, Slam.

I'm willing to add just about anything, just let me know. Anyone think I should continue training Nidorino/Primeape?

Any help will be appreciated.

:)

Evolve Dragonair at level 55. Get a lot of coins in the Game Corner and trade them in for the Ice Beam TM and replace Vaporeon's Aurora Beam.

As for the other two spots, they're not really necessary, but if you want something to have, I recommend Machamp or Hitmonlee for fighting Lorelei, and against Agatha, Alakazam would do you wonders, just make sure it's as high as the rest of your team because both Gengar and Kazam have high speeds, but I think Kazam can outspeed it. And remember that in this game, Shadow Ball is a physical attack, so KO Gengar with Kazam's Psychic as quick as you can. Arbok should be no problem for you.

Edit; Also, Thunderbolt is preferable for Dragonair/nite. It's accuracy isn't never miss like Shock Wave's, but at 100%, you should be fine. Much better base power, as well.

 

[DeeJayFusion]

Hey, thanks Smeargle!

Where would I be able to get a thunderbolt TM.

I did evolve dragonair :D

 

[Sydian]

You're gonna have to get coins for that one, too, I'm afraid.

 

[Shiny]

You can get the ThunderBolt TM at the Celadon Game Corner.

 

[DeeJayFusion]

That's great. Is it worth doing that, or training a pikachu?

 

[Sydian]

I'd go for the TM. I wouldn't want to waste time training another Pokemon since it takes so long to get Dragonite. And it's a great Pokemon, too.

 

[DeeJayFusion]

Okay, Thanks for the help Smeargle :D

 

[skorupoke]

I just purified the shadow Togepi. Luckily, it had Serene Grace :D
I traded it to Fire Red, then migrated it to Diamond, and evolved it into Togetic, then Togekiss.
I gave Togekiss some Carbos and Calcium and took a look at the stats, and then I saw this:
IT HAD HUSTLE!!!!
WHAT THE HECK!>?!?!?!?!!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:(

Help me please! What can I do now? (Sadly, I SAVED when togetic became togekiss..... :( )

 

[DeeJayFusion]

There's nothing you can do, that's the special Togekiss has.
I had the same issue with my Dragonair, once it went to Dragonite it lost shed skin, I was pissed, too. But I can't change it.

 

[scyfer]

i need suggestions for my emerald team!!
i could trade over some from fire red, but anyway yeah any suggestions are fine!cuz i have no clue who to train this time:\

 

[Sydian]

Well, that depends. Where are you in the game?

 

[scyfer]

in emerald? well i havent even started a new game, i like to prepare my team before i start my game

 

[Sydian]

Oh. I see. Well, by personal preference...

Blaziken
Ludicolo/Kingdra
Raichu/Manectric
Shiftry/Vileplume
Flygon
Gardevoir

or...

Sceptile
Swellow
Aggron
Magneton
Wailord
Ninetales

or...

Swampert
Shiftry/Breloom
Salamence/Flygon
Alakazam
Manectric
Camerupt

Just potentials line-ups depending on the starter. Swap them around if you'd like, but those are my favorite picks from the game.

 

[themzr]

i can't seem to get past the elite four in leaf green here is my team please make comments on it

primeape lvl 44
zapdos lvl 55
charizard lvl 46
nidoqueen lvl 47
moltres lvl 51
lapras lvl 48

 

[Sydian]

Try to get all those level 40's to at least level 50. Also, would you mind posting the moveset? At first glance, this team should have no problem taking down the E4.

 

[c3rad]

So far My final team looks like this:

1.Sceptile
