Why Bold?
 
Why do people use Bold Blissey, her defense sucks just like her attack, I am using her soon as a special wall with:
Blissey-Lefties
Natural Cure
Calm
Evs:200 HP/58 Sp Attk/252 Sp Def
-Stealth Rock
-Aromatherapy
-Softboiled
-Ice Beam

Is she good with my set?

Trait: Natural Cure
Nature: Bold
EVs: 252 HP/252 DEF/4 SDEF

Stealth Rock/Aromatherapy
Icebeam/Seismic Toss
Softboiled
Thunderwave

Believe it or not, Blissey can take a few physical hits with Bold.

J-Rad September 6th, 2007 3:52 PM

1) That set seems fine
2) To answer ur Question, people use bold, because some dude claimed a bold def. EV trained blissy survived a cross chop from a lonely 31 iv eletrivire

Because with 714 max hp and max 130 Defense it can take a Cross Chop from an Electivire and Survive, and ive seen one survive a STAB'd Earthquake from Garchomp.

Without Bold it dies to those things and just about everythig else physical, with Bold it can do a descent job of taking physical hits, just as long as you arnt asking too much of it.

Also calm nature isnt needed as its Sp.Defense surpasses over 300 even with no + Sp.Def nature and no EVS in it, thats more than enough to wall special hits easiy.

And have you seen Blissey without a + Def Nature and no EVs in Defense......*Shudder* its not a pretty sight, 25-56 defense at level 100 lol, with Bold max 130 Defense and 714 hp is somewhat better.

i was thinking the same thing .also why do people say to get an impish jolteon when his def isnt even his best point?

Angelic Diablo September 7th, 2007 12:19 AM

Jolteon should always be Timid, unless Choice Scarfing then Modest, but the Eeveelutions aren't meant for choice items so I'd stick with Timid

No, Bold max Def/HP Bliss was standard since ADV. Now she has a bit more SAttk taken from HP, but Bold 252 Def remains as the best choice to survive a few hits.

pokenutjob September 7th, 2007 12:25 PM

Azonic September 7th, 2007 4:53 PM

Okay, so when did we get on the topic on Jolteon? Eh?

Whoever told you Impish was good on Jolteon is very, very dumb :-[

Why no Seismic Toss? ?_?

Thunder Wave is good on Blissey

Azonic September 8th, 2007 12:49 PM

Some prefer to use Icebeam over Seismic Toss. I like Seismic Toss better.

This moveset is getting popular too

Icebeam
Seismic Toss
Softboiled
Thunderwave

How do I get Seismic Toss?I know in Leaf Green but I don't remember if I used it or where it is.

Azonic September 8th, 2007 12:51 PM

I think you can get it from a Move Tutor in FR/LG

Yes it is, but how will I get it to a Chansey in DP since Chansey can't pass moves?

Breed one on Leaf green or Emerald if you have it (Emerald is easier to breed on because of everstone and magma armour etc) with the correct nature Ivs etc. then teach it the tutor move and transfer it Via Pal Park.



or you can just put up an offer on the trade center of this forum and someone will bound to have one (as they are in mass distribution via cloning), thats how i got mine.
