relicath
whats a good build
mine is impish nature ev 252def, 128hp, 12? atk ability; rock head moves; double-edge rest sleep talk head smash please help |
I'm no expert on Relicanth,but Double Edge should be replaced with something else.Maybe Water
Pulse or Stone Edge. |
if you are trying to use it as a physical wall, then you could go with:
Relicanth @ Leftovers Impish/Relaxed Nature 252 HP/164 DEF/92 ATK Ability: Rock Head -Head Smash -Waterfall/Surf -Stealth Rock/Calm Mind/Amnesia/Protect -Yawn/Protect resttalk is not good on relicanth because of its X4 grass weakness, as well as its common weakness of electric, ground, and fighting. with this set, you can either use it for basic physical set with waterfal + stealth rock + yawn/protect. you can also use calm mind to boost its special stats as well for surf so that it has a chance against other physical walls like hippowdown/skarmory/donphan and for becoming a good offensive wall even against special sweepers. amnesia is an option if you're worried about special sweepers. if you want to go for a physical sweeper, you can give it Choice Band: Relicanth @ Choice Band Adamant Nature 252 ATK/252 HP/4 SPD Ability: Rock Head -Head Smash -Waterfall -Earthquake -Stealth Rock/Yawn/Rain Dance stealth rock/yawn/rain daince are options for using the move and switchout. all strategic. rain dance is an especially nice one since you can switch relicanth out, bring something else in, and then bring relicanth out for the boost of Waterfall. if you want to have a physical sweeping relicanth but do not want to have to bother with choice band, you can try the following set: Relicanth @ Liechi Berry/Life Orb Adamant Nature 252 ATK/32 HP/224 SPD Ability: Rock Head/Swift Swim -Head Smash/Stone Edge -Waterfall -Earthquake -Rock Polish/Rain Dance the combos are rock head + head smash + waterfall + eq + rock polish and the other is swift swim + stone edge + waterfall + eq + rain dance. i know everyone prefers rock head, but swift swim does have an advantage. not only does it double relicanth's speed, but it also boosts Waterfall's power by an additional 50%. while Head Smash has a 225 BP with STAB but 80 accuracy, Waterfall has 100% acc, 20% flinch and 160 BP. also, Waterfall being a water type move is more threatening to a lot of pokes. with Rain Dance up, Waterfall would 2HKO blissey. |
cool thnx
i lyk ur swift-swimming relicanth now wats a good build for GLACEON |

Eevee Evoulutions are made of fail. Only usable ones are: Jolteon, Vaporeon, and not for begginners, Umbreon. |
Was gonna say the same thing, but umbreon fails in 4th gen too with all the physical sweepers running about with cross chop and close combat...any other questions?
|
Quote:
Yeah. So that's removed automatically, so only usables ones are: Vaporeon and Jolteon. |

Bold I fail at EVs for EVlutions...bad joke, I know ~Baton Pass ~Substitute/Acid Armor ~Surf ~Ice Beam/Acid Armor Off the top of my head really, but one of the best water absorbers IMO. |

Porygon @:Choice Scarf Trait: Adapitibility Modest Nature Tri Attack Ice Beam Thunderbolt Nasty Plot. Great pokemon overall. Underused: Roserade @:Focus Sash Trait: Natural Cure Modest Nature Sleep Powder Synthsis Grass Knot Sludge Bomb. Meh. ** Specsmence (Salamence). @:Choice Specs Trait: Intimidate Modest Nature Hydro Pump Flamethrower Draco Meteor Dragon Pulse. Gengar @: Wide Lens Trait: Levitate Timid Nature Substitute Focus Punch Thunderbolt Hypnosis. I prefer this myself. Starmie @: Focus Sash Trait: Natural Cure Timid Nature Ice Beam Thunderbolt Grass Knot Surf. There is a wide pool of sp. sweepers to choose from. Edit: omg, Anti beat me. |
Quote:
Porygon-Z with Nasty Plot and Choice Scarf sounds weird, eh? Gengar needs Focus Sash/Life Orb :) Roserades without Extrasensory are walled by ANY Poison types, like mr. Weezing. It doesnt need Synthesis Fire Blast on Salamence :) Starmie MAY want Rapid Spin but its fine :) Otherwise good job |
thanx alot im gonna go with starmie, salamence, and porygon-z
um one more qestion... what 3 pkmn is good to put in my team if i already have porygon-z, salamence and starmie |
Quote:
Salamence@Focus Sash Trait: Intimidate EV's: 132ATK / 122SAK / 252SPD Moves: - Fire Blast - Dragon Claw/Dragon Rush(But low acc T_T) - Dragon Dance - Earthquake |

Thanks for noticing the typo, and the underlined compliement. Otherwise, Good Rapid Spinner is: Btw, 3 sweepers on your team is a big no-no. Claydol @: Leftovers Trait: Levitate Bold Nature Rest Rapid Spin Ice beam Reflect. Sp.wall plus Rapid Spinner is a nice one. |
would shuckle be a good wall?
|
Garchomp makes a good Physical Sweeper as well
Choice Band/Scarf Lucario Taunt DDos Check Shuckles base HP.... it's only like 20... so its horrible :P It can only take a few hits |

Nononononononononononononononononono. Shuckle can't support gyro ball with 10 base attack...but the "nononos" were for using shuckle. First off, its HP sucks, but that isn't the bad part. It is walled by and poison or steel type, or anything with rest/aromtherapy/natural cure, making shuckle a total waste...and cleric is a shuckle counter, sad as it is...use something else, like steelix, a MONSTER wall.

ok now ill need 2 physical sweepers for my team...
what is best to suit my team |
