Your HM Slave?
 
Which one was yours? Mine was Bibarel. I stoped training it at lvl fifteen so I could register Bibarel in the DEX as soon as it evolved from Bidoof.

Same for me, i used Bidoof/Bibarel, i think most people did as well

I caught a Kricketot thinking it would evolve into something super awesome. So I was training it and then it evolved into Kricketune and I was like "WTF!! I caught a Super Marioman?!?" So I had no use of him so I taught him Cut then I saw that he could learn almost every HM so I started teaching him them. And that's how Super Mar-- Uh, I mean Kricketune became my HM Slave.

I personally just picked up random Pokemon when I needed them, I'm just trying to keep a balanced team of (what ended up being 5) on Pearl, I had Torterra, Luxray, Typhlosion, Lumineon, and Alakazam. I had various move slaves, I mean it's not like I planned on using them, Budew was my Cut Pokemon, Steelix covered Rock Smash, Rock Climb, and Strength. I never saw Surf as a Slave move, it's very good, but I had to use Water Fall (not much good with it being Physical now) on my Lumineon, nothing else could learn it.

Eh, I used my Charizard for HM moves...lol

There was a thread on this before, though it is months old...so anyway, back then, I said my "HM slaves" as they are called were my Lv. 92 Charizard with four HM moves, and a freshly-evolved Blastoise with the other four. Before you go critiquing, the Charizard was my LeafGreen starter who basically didn't really work well in a 4th Gen. team, but seeing as she was my starter, I grew attached to her. So I used it for HMs because Flying on Charizard is just cool. In no way would I use her competitively, of course, without replacing all of the HM moves.

Anyways, nowadays, I use a Shiny Latias, a Suicune, and my Pickup Ambipom, though I may replace the Latias for my newly-acquired Shiny Ho-oh instead.

Oh, and I don't use Bibarel because the thought of Surfing on one horrifies me, personally.

*Cough*

Bibarels are mine. They work perfect.

Shiny Umbreon August 23rd, 2007 7:00 PM

I taught Fly, Surf, Strength, Rock Smash to Pokémon in my party because I can't stand having to bring Pokémon just to get through a cave or a sea route. That's unless the move is really really bad like Cut.

I taught Cut to a Bibarel, and Waterfall to a Goldeen (I think so) but I don't thin kthey count as HM Slaves.

Also, I taught no Pokémon Defog because I have a guide with maps :)

Dude...you're berserk with the shinies....slow down.

Rai August 23rd, 2007 8:00 PM

I normally don't use HM slaves but in my Pearl, Bibarel was my HM slave~

The Fallen August 23rd, 2007 8:19 PM

I use a Geodude. It learns all the moves I don't want my normal party pokemon to have. I taught my Blastoise surf, which is an effective move in batter too, so why not. I recently caught a Tentacruel for waterfall, and my Staraptor knows fly. So, that pretty much covers it all.

Monty Kensicle August 23rd, 2007 8:22 PM

My HM slaves consist of two Toys-R-Us event Mews I received at said event in Roanoke, Virginia.


With all due respect,

ufo August 23rd, 2007 8:23 PM

Tropius makes an excellent slave, along wiht linoone, tentacool also is efficient (wiht the water HMs and cut)

Ayano Katagiri August 23rd, 2007 10:10 PM

I use two Pokemon, Bibarel and Pelipper.

Bibarel is really handy for this, kinda like how Lioone was in R/S/E.

Bibarel: Rock Smash, Cut, Strength, Rock Climb
Pelipper: Fly, Surf, Waterfall, De-Fog

bigboss22 August 24th, 2007 1:37 AM

i used geodude for strength rock smash rock climb and something else.
but im interested to know which pokeomn to use that is good with false swipe cause u see i used garchomp

Jordan August 24th, 2007 5:52 AM

IN the 3rd gen, I used a Slakoth for Strength, Rock Smash, and Cut.

Jordan.

Denizen August 24th, 2007 5:56 AM

Yep, Bibarel is my HM slave. Water and Normal - perfect, it's also a good wall.

It's so much nicer to concentrate on 5 fighters with no bad moves, than 6 fighters that take longer to all level up and have Rock Smash and Cut taking up valuable space.

I can't believe I only used a HM slave for THIS generation.

Azonic August 24th, 2007 6:34 AM

Geodude and Bidoof are mine, I never evolve it.

msdmario August 24th, 2007 7:16 AM

Bibarel was mine. It learns 6 of the 8 HM moves. All it doesn't know is the flying HM moves.

Lumine August 24th, 2007 7:34 AM

mine was steelix
cut
rock smash
rock climb
strength

Cema August 24th, 2007 7:40 AM
