I prefer Relaxed on Steelix. Bur Impish is also fine. Stidy is well.. Useless. rock Head makes use of one move he has.
|
I don't like Gyro Ball. Bad Coverage. Ground + Ice = Better Coverage. Thunder is for Skarmory.
|
Gyro Ball + Stab Low speed 0 IV's in Spd = A lot of Damage. After that, who cares about the coverage?
|
Lack of fire moves isn't a good idea.. you'll get walled by Bronzongs.
I'd give Steelix Fire Fang. |
Fire Fang does squat. Fire Blast does an amazing job. And don't complian about the accuracy. You don't judge a Move by it's Accuracy. >3 ;)

Who said anything about Dragon Rush? That one sucks. However, Iron Tail can REALLY work.

As for steelix, I'd REALLY consider roar over SR...and ice fang isn't really very good on it. With steelix, its attack really is weak enough where you have to go for power rather than coverage. It's not like you're trying to sweep anything with it. |

Obviously, Itachi 2007. Iron Tail does work.

Look, my point is that accuracy is important. Why would we bother with No Guard Machamp if Dynamic Punch had no accuracy troubles? |
Thank you, Anti. Now do you see why I prefer it?

Iron Tail is probably the worst move. Steelix didn't need Steel STAB in 3rd Generation since he's already part Ground, which covers most of the types Steel does. That alone can pretty much make another low accuracy Steel move useless. Not to mention horrible coverage. Gyro Ball is accepted because its amazingly more powerful and has a better Accuracy. By the way, Steelix is argueably one of the worst OU Roarers.
All of your Pokemon's movesets, Loquacity, are pretty stable. Though you might want to add in a status inflictor somewhere. |
Didn't realize this before, but my team is very Heracross-weak. X.x; I need a Physical Wall who can stand up to the beetle (considering Gliscor or Weezing).
|
You have a physical wall already so..Gliscor. I think you already have a tank Gliscor set. I remember you posting it in one my realllllllllly old RMTs.
|
I meant to replace Steelix. X.x; It's been the faulty link in my team. Yes, good ol' tanky Gliscor.

Stop discussing that in the thread. I'm getting rid of Steelix anyway, so no reason for it. kthanxbai

Ok, one thing is, I love my Machamp, and hes No Gurad+Adamant 252 Attack 252 Speed+Choice Scarf. Outspeeds a LOT o stuff and hits hard. Also if you want a wall that resists Cross, then Dusknoir is also a possibility I believe.
|
Dusknoir can't really counter hera well. WoW = instant death. and nigth slash says hi! Weezing is the best Hera counter IMO.
|
Gliscor is a better Hera counter >:[ It actually has some attacking power unlike Weezing who lost physical Sludge bomb V_V;
|

yeah weezing is much better. first, it has 85 base sp atk. that's more than enough. then it has access to tbolt and flamethrower aside from sludge bomb. if it wanted to, it could run a choice specs set and dominate. for gliscor to counter hera, you have to give it aerial ace or something for nuetral damage, which pretty much sucks cus between roost, stealth rock, knock off, and earthquake, there's not much room for it. sure, knock off and stealth rock are optional, but even so, no one wants to sacrifice the potential with a move that is only worth it with grass and bug types who are not so often considered threats.
