looks good but steelix in my opinion isnt a good wall because its weak against 3 types that the majority of ppl have which are fire, ground, nd fighting. u can keep him but a skarmory wud fit better .. thats just me tho =]

alakazam and selemence are perfect sp. sweepers. jus make sure to give alakazam a focus sash =]

so all in all .. the only thing id say that'll make ur team pretty stable is a switch from steelix to skarmory. =]

ive choosen him because many people told me that hes a great wall they said that he can take up to 2-3 eq be4 fainting so yeh.... and that he has no 4x weaknesses

i also have an ev trained scarmory so any way is still good

luckyCHARMS September 17th, 2007 11:48 PM

hmm 2-3 earthquakes? maybe from a magicarp or something lOl! but if its going head to head against something like an ev trained metagross's eq its done =/. but yeah its your choice dont get me wrong .. yes steelix has superior defence compared to skarmory but skarmory has less chance of getting supereffectively hit yaknoe? =]

shadow_ki6 September 17th, 2007 11:51 PM

lol thanx for the advice
is there anything else i can do to improve my team....
ive realised that most for my team has too many defence weaknesses what can i do about this

luckyCHARMS September 17th, 2007 11:56 PM

when it comes to that .. theres pretty much nothing u can do. the best thing to do is if ur poke is cornered in by a poke with ur weakness is to switch out to a poke thats resistant to the move that the enemy poke is going to use. hopefully u have good prediction skills LOL cuz nowadays ppl teach their pokemon move types you'd never think they'd kno lOl.

also i think the specsmence is awsome but he/she looks better fitted with a focus sash. but one or the other is just as effective on him/her

shadow_ki6 September 17th, 2007 11:59 PM

lucky thing i have dusknoir yeh.......:] ill switch to him if i think they're gonna use eq or any other crazy moves lol

Wait! Fighting is fairly common, and EQ is everywhere, but steelix can take at least 2 EQs...sheesh. I haven't read past this post...but your information is inaccurate. First of all, steelix can EASILY take 1 EQ from metagross, maybe 2, though I'm not sure there. I actually prefer steelix to skarm...take away resistances and weaknesses, and steelix is far superior. If you have decent prediction skills, you can use steelix very effectively...and any good team should have a poke that resists EQ...just because steelix doesn't resist it doesn't mean its bad...it is better IMO (most disagree). Steelix can absorb garchomp's EQ...easily as well, so let's not jump to conclusions, shall we?
