The Ultimate Catcher
Okay maybe this is a stupid question and is impossible, if not I'll just have to settle with Gallade with Mean Look, Hypnosis and False Swipe, but anyway:
This is what I'm wondering, is there any pokemon that in any way could come to have these four moves, and perhaps as a bonus high attack (:P): Mean Look Hypnosis/other sleep move False Swipe Odor Sleuth/Foresight (so it can hit all pokemon) I know that breeded so it gets mean look as an egg move gallade can have the first three, but it cannot learn foresight or odor sleuth, any chances of a pokemon managing this amazing combonation of moves? If the odor sleuth cannot be done a replacement with a healing move(e.g refresh etc.) would I suppose be almost as good. |
hmmmm, i know that Mightyena can learn Mean Look and Odor Sleuth, but unsure on hypnosis...
It would be good though, and unsure of False Swipe, but maybe... ~M51 Check on Yanmega and Absol also, they may be able to. I know yanmega can learn Hypnosis and forsight, and Absol can learn mean Look, odur Slueth, False Swipe, but unsure on hypnosis... ~M51 |
I use Parasect with Spore (sooo much better than Hypnosis) and False Swipe. Mean Look is only relevant at all against Mesprit and Cresselia, and Foresight is only relevant against Ghosts.
|
I use my Box Altaria generally as my catcher. Sing + False Swipe is good, plus it has a lot of resists from the Dragon type. Super Fang is on my Pick Up Pachirisu as a back-up safe damager.
Smeargle can learn all four of those moves you are after. If you're willing to try it, could be extremely useful (fix it at L50 to use Repels for Cresselia/Mesprit) |
Ah this is something I couldn't understand, how do you get smeargle the moves you want, I was always curious about this, because they usually have quitet low speed thus go AFTEER the enemy so how do you get it the moves you want?
|
Smeargle learns moves by using Sketch. It learns Sketch at L1, then every 10 levels (L11, L21, etc). To Sketch a move, the easiest way is to have a faster Pokemon in your team use the move in a double battle.
Say for example you wanted Mean Look, and you had a Golbat with the move, get rid of all but one of the opponent's Pokemon first to give Smeargle a chance to survive, then have it use Mean Look, and in the same turn have Smeargle use Sketch on Golbat. He would permanently learn Mean Look, and you can do the same for the other moves he needs. Encore is also a useful tool for getting Smeargle to learn moves, since you can force the opponent to use the move you need then Sketch it that way. |
THank you so much, all of this has helped so much, the smeargle one was the answer so thanks loads, but the spore also reminded me loads....come to think of it I think I actually had a smeargle with moves alike those on my emerald....I could have just transferred it over but it got stolen with my fire red..... and both of them were completed :(
Either way thanks loads...this should be no problem to do once I've got the poke radar, thank you so much! |
in my opinion an 'ultimate catcher' isnt needed, i caught every legendry without usin a masterball or any particular technique. Any poke with the followin things will do:
Status inducin move Strong move, regularly effective Weak move, not very effective best of all is if the pokemon u want is resistant to ice beam, just hit them till they freeze :) |
Breloom with spore/false swipe is teh awesomeness.
