Am I the only one that nearly can't touch Ubers? On one side, I just love the [email protected] design and their Dragon-typing, but on thesecond, I just feel like I'm cheating...any empathy?
|
The Uber tier has a very intriguing metagame. There's nothing wrong with being an Ubers player if that's what you want to do.

How can it be cheating or even feel like it when your battling ubers with your own ubers lol ?. Anyway as Deano said its a really fun metagame (My preferred one by chance) since its REALLY offensive. http://www.smogon.com/dp/articles/uber_battling Thats a good link to read if you want to read up or get into uber battling ;). |

I, myself, don't play the uber metagame. Adjusting for me is a bit difficult when I'm too glued to OU. But yeah, you should definitely look into it, I hear it's very fun. |
Lmao, forgotten how to get Crunch on Lucario.
Am I right in thinking I can breed a male Luxray/Floatzel w/ Crunch with a female Lucario or Riolu? |
Yes.
Well, is it just me, or is shoddy acting up with everyone? |
Anyone know where i can get a list of natures and what they do?

Froslass, it definitely isn't cheating like Ryan said, but I'll also point out that there is a thriving übers metagame currently; it is quite different to standard. It isn't like you're pitting OU Pokémon up against six übers without knowing you're facing them. It's about as much 'cheating' as playing standard instead of UU. Übers is also quite difficult; it isn't the cheap cakewalk everyone envisions for God knows whatever reason. Actions have higher risk in übers and you're also fighting some of the hardest-to-counter Pokémon in the game, so you're not working with perfect Pokémon either. Advice, though: play it on Shoddy. A lot of übers are hard to obtain with good stats without hard work obviously, like, ridiculously hard work, and God knows what you'll be facing on wifi. I assure you a lot of wifi übers players won't just be using 'legitimate' hacks, a lower percentage than standard. 8D;

hmm, I need some help with damage calc cause I am not good at it. @[email protected]
I have a Jolteon with these IVs 20/18/29/30/31/31 resulting in Hidden Power grass 66. Its got 252 EVs in spd and Sp Atk. Now on to the question. Is my Hidden Power Grass 66 able to OHKO a Swampert with 404 hp, assuming it has no Sp.Def EVs and decent IVs? Im not to sure about it. =/ |
What item do you have on Jolteon? I'm presuming Focus Sash or Leftovers.
|
no i have petaya berry on it though i am considering leftovers.
|
Okay, well...
317 Atk vs 216 Def & 404 HP (70 Base Power): 296 - 352 (73.27% - 87.13%) So nope. But if the Petaya boost is activated, well... |
Yup, you would need the Petaya Boost. Or run a Choice Specs Jolteon [which, hey, isn't that bad].
|
My friend recently traded me a Rash Dratini, which Smogon says can be used on a Specs set. Does anyone know it that set is any good? The set was:
[email protected] Specs EVs: 64 Att, 252 Sp.Att, 192 Spd Rash Nature Moves: Draco Meteor Dragon Pulse/ThunderBolt Flamethrower Focus Punch Focus Punch lets it take on Blissey, other moves for coverage and STAB. Is it worth my time to train it? I haven't checked its IVs yet, but it's female, so I can breed it. |
252 Jolteon: HP [Grass 66] vs 252/0 Swampert.
Specs/Petaya: 478 (Specs) Atk vs 216 Def & 404 HP (66 Base Power): 420 - 496 (103.96% - 122.77%) Life Orb: 414 (Life Orb) Atk vs 216 Def & 404 HP (66 Base Power): 360 - 428 (89.11% - 105.94%) Nothing: 319 Atk vs 216 Def & 404 HP (66 Base Power): 280 - 332 (69.31% - 82.18%) Seeing as it's usually a lead, you can't factor in SR Damage. Quote:
Not sure on the EVs, but something similar to what you listed above. |
When you use Sleep Talk, the result is random isn't it? You can't pick what move you use, can you?
|
Nope. Sleep Talk can't let you pick the move it uses, that would be cheap.
I'm running a Substitute Kingdra set with Dragon Dance, Waterfall, and Outrage. Standard EVs. Should I give it Leichi Berry, Salac Berry, or Lefties? |
SubDra <333
Kingdra @ Leftovers Jolly 42 HP/252 Att/216 Spe Dragon Dance Waterfall Outrage Substitute Has been working for me. |
I'm not the expert but...
Lefties! :D I thought that it would help out with the hp loss from sub. My question. I have an Agron level 83 that I'm working on getting to level 100. I currently have it looking like this. Gender:Boy Nature:Careful Stats: 220 hp/ 06 atk/311 def/105 sp.atk/123 sp.def/103 speed Ability:Rock Head(Which right now is completely useless!) Item:None but i need suggestions. Moveset
|
um...he needs to be trashed completley...try this
aggron @ expert belt/life orb jolly if you want more speed,adamant for power 252 atk, 126def,126 sp. def(or shove 252 into sp.def) 6 hp rock polish earthquake/iron head ice punch stone edge/rock slide/substitute this should give you more ability to sweep |
Um, both of yours' needs to be trashed completely, try this... ^_^
Aggron @ Leftovers Trait: Sturdy (doesn't really matter but...) Nature: Adamant EVs: 252 Attack / 252 HP / 4 Defense - Avalanche / Thunder Wave / Stealth Rock - Stone Edge / Rock Slide - Substitute - Focus Punch |
I got a question
Which increase Grass Damage and Water Damage more? Meadow Plate or Rose Incense or Miracle Seed Splash Plate or Mystic Water or Sea Incense |
If I'm not mistaken, all of those items boost their respective type by the same amount. Each offer a 20% boost to the respective type. Miracle Seed, Rose Incense, and Meadow Plate all offer a 20% boost to Grass moves; the same goes for the water moves vs. water items.
But meh, the boost is minimal which is why most of the skilled battlers don't use them. |
