0.o that'd be very strange to see a bouncing Gross.
But two turn moves like that suck because the opponent can switch out or protect or SD or something in that turn.

Houndoom666 November 29th, 2007 4:33 PM

Yeah. But What if he had shadow force? Can break through protect. hehehe

Why is bounce in the game its a cheap knockoff of Fly.
Whoa your pokemon should totally be able to bounce you all the towns it'd be hilarious watching them bounce off screen =p

Because we don't copy movesets from other threads.

Anyways, yes Agiligross is the best Set like Anti said earlier, but there's the CB Version as an alternative.

I never said that. and if I did it was surely an accident as CBgross packs a far more devestating punch.

Metagross @ Choice Band
Trait: Choice Band
EV's: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Explosion
- Meteor Mash
- Rock Slide.

loling at "Trait: Choice Band" :/

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

See told ya =p. And if the better players are on smogon I recently made an account there and they fired down the standard Blissey and told me to go with Calm nature with Toxic/ Protect/ Wish/ Flamethrower =0

Standard blissey works best though. though most all of the ADV RMTers from Smogon are better than me ;) But Bliss can run many sets effectively, though I hate CM Blissey.

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.

luke November 29th, 2007 7:35 PM

Yeah, don't let another conversation like that happen in a thread again. 'Kay?

I've never heard of that set before.
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)
