My Metagross
well im back again this a new thread and i finally got my metagross to ownage standard
i run it like this Name: Element ---- [email protected] Trait : clear body Nature: Adamant EVs: 252 Atk, 152 HP, 106 Spd Meteor Mash Psychic Agility Earthquake Thx too Angelic Diablo for alot of help with this moveset any other idea's to help out my metagross with help. hope this is enuff for you guys to comment |

Evs and Nature and the rest of the moveset look fine though. |
I never, ever suggested Psychic thank you very much... If you must you a psychic type attack, please use Zen Headbutt
Thunderpunch or Explosion could be used as well |
If you're gonna use a special attack on him, try Grass Knot - it deals hard damage to Rhyperior and Swampert, which are often switched in as counters.
Explosion is really nice on him and usually ensures a kill. |
im on 3rd gen emerald ill run it like this
ame: Element ---- [email protected] Trait : clear body Nature: Adamant EVs: 252 Atk, 152 HP, 106 Spd Meteor Mash Psychic/Rock Slide Agility Earthquake EDIT:Sorry angelic i forgot about the spec you did i just did it by memory |

but yep i agree Explosion >> Rock Slide |
ok ok ill guess this is al down to me then i think ill have ROCK SLIDE coz of the added flinch and the power
|
Quote:
Explosion is FAR more powerful than rock slide will ever be. And it hardly ever flinches, plus it misses a lot X_x |
but explosion makes the user faint what good is that when your sweeper is dead lol i'm not saying its a bad thing but the whole BOOM and your dead thing doesn't tickle my fancy, i think that there are more bad points to explosion but because of the 250 damage (i think) its a good move anti-pop you've converted me explosion is the better move and i will consider adding it to my move set.
will it be the same set if i add explosion (e.g. EV's and move set) EDIT: can any1 link me to the EV's guide plz i no its off topic sorry |
Im not the person to give advice, but Psychic should be replaced with something like agility to raise his speed.

agility is already in the move set Name: Element ---- [email protected] Trait : clear body Nature: Adamant EVs: 252 Atk, 152 HP, 106 Spd Meteor Mash EXPLSION/ROCK SLIDE/PSYCHIC Agility Earthquake |
Quote:
EVS for Agiligross are : - 152 HP / 152 ATT / 104 SPEED. |
EVs: 252 Atk, 152 HP, 106 Spd
should i run those EV's?? |
Could you run his speed up a little?
|
I think some people have forgotten some other choices that were valid for Metagross in the 3rd Gen. Namely Shadow Ball, and to a lesser extent Sludge Bomb.
My Emerald Metagross had Shadow Ball over Explosion, but was otherwise the same. You could also keep Explosion, scrap Agility, and make it a Choicegross. |
Can't believe nobody suggested the The Compiled Guides Thread.
Anyways, yes Agiligross is the best Set like Anti said earlier, but there's the CB Version as an alternative. Metagross @ Choice Band Trait: Choice Band EV's: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Earthquake - Explosion - Meteor Mash - Rock Slide. |

lol schizo. Anyways, Can anyone imagine how Metagross would suck if it had bounce?
|
Quote:
But two turn moves like that suck because the opponent can switch out or protect or SD or something in that turn. |
Yeah. But What if he had shadow force? Can break through protect. hehehe
|
Anything sucks with bounce >.>
|
Quote:
Whoa your pokemon should totally be able to bounce you all the towns it'd be hilarious watching them bounce off screen =p |

and Shiczo? No, I base what I say on actually experience and what better players than myself tell me ;/ |

But back to metagross, if you want, you can run special agiligross. It gets the Speed AND special attack of rain dance kingdra. Scary :0 Metagross @ Leftovers / Lum Berry Trait: Clear Body EVs: 252 SAtk is all I can remember, probably run standard agiligross EVs only with SAtk EVs insrtead of Atk Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Agility - Thunderpunch - Ice Punch - Hidden Power [Grass] Worked pretty well actually ;) Even after the surprise wears off, it's still a rather effective set since it still has good sweeping power. It isn't the best by any means, but it's fun to run. |
Yeah, don't let another conversation like that happen in a thread again. 'Kay?

Anyway, this is the meta i know of: Metagross (Agiligross) @ Leftovers Trait: Clear Body EVs: 252 Atk / 156 Def / 100 Spd Adamant Nature - Agility - Earthquake - Explosion - Meteor Mash Agility up then Meteor Mash or something like that. Very powerful. (This is 3rd gen) |
