What's the best pokemon? And combo?
|
There is no best pokemon, lol. If you count with ubers, maybe Mewtwo or Deoxys-A.
Combo : Magnezone + Weavile, Tangrowth + Heatran, Jirachi + Salamence, Gyarados + Electivire |

No, she just wasnt using the pokemon that are banned (Which ive already explained to you). Even with ubers there is no "best" pokemon, they all have their own strengths and weaknesses.

Please reiterate your post, I do not understand. |
She was telling the truth, there is no best pokemon. Every pokemon has their owns good and bad points, and even banned ubers have their problems. Basically Every pokemon can be killed by something else, there is nothing that comes close to being the best.
Better? |

Don't know if this has been asked before (and I apologise if it has, it's just I don't feel like reading 34 pages, lol) but I need some clarification on rules surrounding hold items.
I was always under the impression that every Pokemon in the team should be holding a different item, but I've noticed that pretty much all the teams I've come across have more than one Leftovers being used (the most common example). Is this OK? Or does this rule still exist? I'm sure I remember in areas of the actual Pokemon games (like Battle Tower) it was even an in-game rule so it seems strange that this is not enforced outside. |

what would be a good EV spread for an impish skarmory, with the attacks: roost, fly, spikes, and wirlwind?
|
Quote:
Fly ??? Drill Peck , Brave Bird or hell even Aerial Ace would be better than Fly =/ 252 HP / 16 ATT / 200 DEF / 40 SP.DEF 252 HP / 60 ATT / 196 DEF Those are the two ive had most success with this gen.. |

Also I was just kind of wondering this...when building teams, what pokemon are YOU ALWAYS sure you counter? For example, I stress being able to take out Garchomp, Infernape, Gyarados, and Salamence. you? |
SpecsMence, although that has turned into more of a "caution". Now, it is Tyranitar, who always causes me grief. But I have to remember that Sceptile, Gyarados, and Forretress can deal with it, with some creative teamwork.

IMO, all of those, if you play them wrongly, they cost you the match so you have to have a viable counter for them. @Sims, Life Orb Mixtar ftw lol XD |

I fear Heracross less than what I used to now. I used to get so freaked out when he came. Now that I'm used to using Gya, he's not so tough. Weavile really isn't a problem, but I hate it when he takes out Grumpig. Vire is walled by Grumpig, at least this new Special-Oriented Vire. Togekiss gets played by Magic Coat...as do Heatran, who should be on that list. Am I hitting below the belt? No, unless I mention Metal Sound. Whoops, just said it :P I REALLY hate Porygon Z. |

Ok and wall break Heatran Taunt/Metal Sound or Explosion/Fire Blast/Earth Power or Hidden power [ice/Electric/Grass] Those are Nasty and can be tailored to beat certain threats, shuts most walls down with taunt and its plethora of resistances. EDIT : At least they are nasty untill some people start using Magic Coat Grumpigs >=[ EDIT 2 : I was thinking of using Nidoqueen in OU, yes OU lol Looking at its Stats and typing, i was thinking it would make a great heracross and Lucario counter. Im thinking something along the lines of [email protected] 252 HP / 252 DEF / 6 ATT Impish nature - Aerial Ace - Earthquake - Toxic Spikes / Stealth Rock - Roar What do j00 think ? I wish it still got Lovely Kiss like it did in GSC lol |
Hey, you're stealing my Heracross counter. >:[ That's what I run, and I can say from my experience it works pretty well.

Alright I need some help with IVs
I bred a ghastly and went on serebii to check its IVs and although the results are specacular, I just don't trust my luck. Alright heres my Ghastly: Nature: Timid Level 1 Hp: 11 attack:4 Defense: 5 Specail Attack: 7 Special defense: 5 Speed 6 I typed this in and all my Ivs came out to be either 29 or 31. Obviously since it's level 1 it has no evs but i don't know if i punched it in wrong. Can someone do it for me themselves or explain this? If you need any other info: It likes Sweet food Often lost in thought |
Umm....when you check IV's checking at level 1 is not reliable at all. You don't have enough information as a level 1 to determine what the IV's are.
If you wanna check IV's get someone online on wifi to give you and IV battle which is a level 100 battle so the gastly becomes level 100 you can insert the stats and then check it's IV's. ;p |

There are no such things as good or best Pokemon as all have weaknesses and strengths. Dark type moves however, could own more than half of the Ubers around. Just think of all the Ubers and how many would be owned by Crunch, or Shadow Ball or something. |
As far as Nidoqueen goes, I've found it to be a slightly weaker Gliscor with a rock resistance and a lost ground immunity, and also a lack of instant recovery. however Toxispikes is cool. Just remember to run away from STAB Earthquakes (well, that's pretty obvious...)
The one thing with Nidoqueen is all of those weaknesses. Ew. Gyarados (bulky water style) goes very well with Nidoqueen, as it can take most hits Nidoqueen can't (especially the water and ground ones). Nidoqueen can also take Thunderbolts and Stone edges. |

I was gonna use it in conjunction with a Rest-Talk Gyara actually XD |
