Shuckle - needs HP EVs more than anything, since without them he sucks (with them he still sucks, but he sucks less)

Blaziken - Why so many Sp Atk EVs when your only using one common special attack, switch to Flare Blitz and max Attack and Speed

Dragonite - Sp Atk EVs without a Special Attack, and Adament Nature please

Metagross - HP > Def when it comes to Metagross' EVs

Blastoise - He's doing a mixed sweeping job, why not switch to Swampert who gets STAB Earthquake as well, but even he fails as a Mixed Sweeper due to Grass Knot/Energy Ball TMs

Spiritomb - More HP EVs, Hynosis and Dream Eater does not work against real people, try breeding for Pain Split for a recovery option

Thanks for the input, but with Shuckle's def and sp def in the upwards of 500, I believe that hp doesn't matter, as for Blaziken, Flare Blitz is a horrible move, And on Dragonite that is supposed to be speed not special attack. Why would I raise Metagross' HP when he is a Physical Tank, highest stats are his Att, and Def. Why not switch to Swampert? Because I hate Swampert, And Spiritomb, watch me make hypnosis and dream eater work. But all in all thanks for the opinoin.

Seriously, you need the hp ev's for shuckle..

Angelic Diablo September 7th, 2007 1:51 AM

HP is way way WAY more important then defense, otherwise why would people use Blissey when Shuckle has higher Sp Def?

There is only so much defense can do, but HP is the most vital statistic on a pokemon, without it the pokemon is dead, yet its Defense can still be +500 it won't really matter

Listen to Angelic Diablo, he is talking sense, you are not. Here is what you should have:

[email protected]
EV's: 252 HP, 156 Sp. Def, 100 Def
Calm

Move Set:

Toxic
Rest
Stealth Rock
Roar(??? can it learn?)

or

Toxic
Rest
Bide
Attract

May I ask why you have Power Trick when you are using no attacking moves?

If you're going with Power Trick, why not add Earthquake or Stone Edge?
