Sassy's ok, its not exactly the fastest poke anyway. Still, its better to reduce a stat you never use rather than a potentially valuable one. Still, its a wall and high HP/Def IVs are the most important.
|
Is there a reason why Slaking uses Return instead of Giga Impact?

This has probably been asked before, but what would be a good set for using Golduck as a Special sweeper on a SS team?
|

How 'bout we help him???? |
That's an ingame team, so it doesn't really matter what he uses.

But I used it as a Mixed Sweeper on a Hail Team and it worked fine. Not WOAHOMG, but fine enough stay in the team. |
So probably something like Surf/Ice Beam/Cross Chop/Substitute would be good? No idea on natures and such.
|
i need a good mixed wall and special sweeper thanks
|
I used it just like that, except Hypnosis in place of Sub.
You could just go with Smogon's mix standard in 104 Atk / 252 SpA / 152 Spe and Mild nature. It worked for me. |
Hey. I just hatched this Magnemite and I was wondering what I should do with it. http://pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa081.png Magnemite Modest Magnet Pull Metal Sound, Tackle, Thunder Wave 31 HP/ 18 Atk/ 31 Def/ 24 SpA/ 31 SpD/ 16 Spd Hidden Power Fire 54 Should I use this as a parent to aim for a higher IV Magnemite, or is a defensive Magnezone good? The lack of a Hidden Power Ice/Ground/Grass aches, so I was wondering what I should do with it. I'm not so good at IV breeding, so.. If this could be used as a defensive or support Magenzone, though, I would appreciate a moveset and EV spread. |
Aim for Hidden Power Ice, Ground, or Grass for Magnemite. I say it could be used as a parent though because of the 31s on the board.
Just keep on trying til you get something better is all I can say. |
Whats the best moveset for (need at least two ultimate sp.attacks)
[email protected] orb Serious Nature |

What's the set for a Special Sweeping Starmie? I mainly need it so Gyarados will stop raping me.

Hiya! does anyone have a moveset for a timid Jirachi please? (got a legit shiny one YAY! :) )
|
According to smogon only the specs set uses timid:
[email protected] Specs Timid 80HP/252SpAtt/176Spd Thunderbolt Psychic HP Fire/Fight/Bug Shadow Ball/Grass Knot HP choice is dependant on what you fear- Darks or steels. Since you have already saved i guess you dont have the luxury of resetting for any of them, so I'd check because otherwise steel's are gonna screw you over. If you dont have any water pulse could be an alternative, albeit a bad one. I guess 20% onfuse rate isnt bad. |
hello, im a complete n00b at this but hey id like to take a first step, anyway these are the pokes id like to use for my first (real) team:
Salamence Snorlax Electivire Tyranitar Milotic Lucario movesets and reccomendations are greatly encouraged thanks. |
You lack a Physical wall in that group. Snorlax and Milotic are both descent Special walls though.
|
Any recomendations for a good physical wall? i don't think i need both snorlax and milotic there, i can always swap either of them out.
|
A few common recomendations would be Skarmory, Forretress, and Weezing.
|
Lots of things can be Physical walls. Hippowdon, Rhyperior, Torterra, Steelix, Forretress, Swampert, Skarmory, Gliscor. Some of those might be tanks but they serve the same purpose.
|
Tangrowth is my favourite Physical Wall. And your team needs something to stop Tyranitar anyway.
I run; Tangrowth @ Leftovers 252 HP / 228 Def / 28 Spe Impish - Knock Off - Leech Seed - Power Whip - Stun Spore |
Quote:

Quote:
Hmm... I think i'll give Steelix a shot and leave snorlax behind. So now the team is: Salamence Steelix Milotic Electivire Lucario Tyranitar Now lucario seems compromised... what could I switch him for? |
Quote:

Quote:
|
That does not make any sense- you can have more than one Pokémon of a type in your team, not to mention Steel/Ground and Steel/Fighting are quite different in most aspects. And don't forget Pokémon is a team-playing game.
They share a Fire weakness? Milotic got that covered. Ground? Salamence's immune. People who are new to competitive battling often think 'switching is for noobs', when switching is the spirit of Pokémon. |
Quote:
|
I saw your Tangrowth set. Stun Spore's for noobs. Tickle's where it's at :P
|
Quote:
|
Ah, I was being serious, too!
My team has Vileplume for Stun Support, and sp.attackers aren't he only thing that switches into Tangrowth. Sweepers like Mence loves to come in, with their Fire blast. Still, there offense is the main attraction. They wouldn't like getting softened, making a very easy switch-in for teammates. |
Well, it's not like they like getting Paralyzed either. d:
Tangrowth is just that awesome. |
Not as good as Plume, but it is awesome.
|
What would be a good moveset for... a mixed-sweeping Lucario?
|
im starting to ev train a machamp and i was wondering if u can help me choose:
what nature? "guts" or "no guard" 252 Att and 252 Spd (was wondering if this spread his good) and moves: rest, sleep talk, ice punch, dynamitpunch/cross chop tnx |
Sorry dude, that's a horrible EV spread for a Rest-Talker. Not bulky enough to utilize Rest-Talk. I use the following set:
Machamp @ Leftovers Adamant No Guard 252 HP, 36 Att, 216 Def, 6 Spe Dynamicpunch Ice Punch Rest Sleep Talk Even with this set, you can OHKO (or at least come close to) things like Snorlax, Blissey, etc... This survives and counters TTar much more effectively. |
thanks king tyranitar actually i took the idea for a machamp form seeing in the battle log the battle of u and dark azlef
|
It's a very standard Machamp, but man, does it do a great job. Pair it with Gliscor to destroy things.
|
Magmortar @ Salac Berry/Petaya is an option...
Mild | Flame Body < 4 HP, 132 Atk, 164 SAtk, 208 Spd > ~ Substitute ~ Focus Punch ~ Overheat/Flamethrower/Fire Blast ~ Thunderbolt SubPunching Magmortar. Sub down to the chosen berry and sweep. Focus punch is under your belt, crippling any Blisseys that think they can wall you. EVs: 4 HP - Gives Mag the HP to activate the Berry at 1/4 HP 132 Atk - 2HKO Blissey, including Lefties 164 SAtk - Left over. 208 Spd - Lets you outrun ScarfTran after the Salac Boost whom would otherwise ruin your fun. Opinions? |
can someone give me a blissey set?
i havent used blissey before but i sorta want evs to fit with this blissey:seismic toss, twave, heal bell,softboil |
Quote:
Natural Cure Calm 216 SDef/ 252 Def/ 40 HP - Softboiled - Aromatherapy/ Heal Bell - Seismic Toss - Thunder Wave The standard Calm Blissey. Easily the best Special wall in the game. It's understandable if you can't get Aromatherapy (especially if you're breeding on Emerald, where Roselia is unavailable), so Heal Bell works well too. Overall, they're exactly the same move, except Aromaterapy hits Soundproof Pokemon (like Exploud, I think). |

D_A, weren't Event Moves banned already? If so, Wish Blissey is out of the question.
Although I have to agree that Toxic is always a very good option on Blissey. |

Anyways, dont quote me on this, but on smogon as of late there has been a vote to get events unbanned, and it should be implemented in the near future hopefully. |

Unless, you're talking about- *gasp*!- hacking! |
Hey, I was raising my Houndoom, wanted to run this by people. This is entirely for one person, I already have the Smogon standard NP sweeper, this is just a slight variation.
Houndoom @ Power Herb 40 HP, 252 SpA, 218 Spe Timid nature Nasty Plot Fire Blast Dark Pulse Solarbeam I know, I know... power herb is not so popular, but this is tailored specifically to counter one person, and her only real counter for Houndoom is her Swampert. The HP this one has is ice, so that can't counter it, the one that's the normal NP sweeper has HP fighting, but it still gets rammed by that Swampert. So, even though this is a one-off, it'll come as a shock, and Houndoom'll be able to take out a big chunk of her team after her main counter's gone. I start with Houndoom and NP on the switch, then I've got a non-charging Solarbeam. |
Wanted to know if Toxic or Twave was more effective on Blissey.
I also want the standard Aerodactyl set and Yanmega set plz. |
Quote:
42 HP / 252 ATT / 216 SPEED Jolly Nature Trait : pressure - ice Fang - Stone Edge - Earthquake - Fire Fang / Pursuit / Crunch You could also go Hasty @ Life Orb and use Fire Blast on that last slot if you fear skarm, forry etc. [email protected] / Life Orb / Wise Glasses 252 SP.ATT/ 252 SPEED / 6 HP Modest Nature Trait : Speed Boost - Protect - Bug Buzz - Air Slash - Hypnosis / Hidden power [Ice/Ground] Im finding Toxic > t-wave more and more useful as we go further into the metagame ... |
I was wondering about the plausibility of a team of grass types (ie every pokemon has grass as one of its types).
I recently realized that despite grass being my favourite type, I have no competitive grass types. I was thinking of Tangrowth as a physical wall, Venusaur for status effects, Celebi for w/e I feel like, etc. But I'm not sure. Also, I would prefer workable, but unorthodox uses for the Pokemon. So far, I have a Sassy 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SDef Ingrain-Leech Seed-Toxic-Substitute Venusaur, although I was thinking of rebreeding for Light Screen to help deal with Flamethrowers, Ice Beams, and Psychics. As well, I need a better EV spread. Ideas anyone? |
Quote:
Venusaur @ Lefties 252 HP, 252 SpD, 6 Spe Sleep Powder Leech Seed Energy Ball/Grass Knot Sludge Bomb/Substitute Leaving in Sludge Bomb is just the Smogon standard, and really effective, but you can still do Substitute if you're dead set on subseeding. You may need some extra SpD EV's in Speed if you're going to try that, though. Oh, and no offense, but you should know that the notion of having a team entirely composed of grass types won't work very well. You'd be hard pressed to find a team that can't counter a grass type with any of its pokemon. You'd be wrecked in no time flat if someone had something like Yanmega or Heracross, and especially if they had a MixMence. |
I've seen a Cresselia in action that is pretty weird, but I think it actually works.
[email protected] Orb (Unsure of Nature and EVs) Rest Sleep Talk Psycho Shift Ice Beam/Psychic/something The key Dark-type threats to Cresselia are mainly physical, so why not Psycho Shift them with a burn? While you snooze, hopefully Sleep Talk Psycho Shift and send a Sleep. (I think it works like that.) This, however, can really be upset by Sleep Clause and the damage rack-up from the burn, so Wish support may be appreciated. Just wanna know opinions on this. |

Either way, dont tell me not to suggest something when your trying to use a Power Herb Solarbeam to take out a pokemon that Houndoom has no reason to be left in against. Basically if you want Solarbeam, at least chuck him on a Sunny Day team, one time use items FAIL |
I'm looking for a moveset on a EV'd Frosslass I received in a trade. Currently it has the moves Ominous Wind/Blizzard/Ice Beam/Hail. Im think of using it as weather support or spikes/thunder wave support. Any suggestions?
|
Well...That's a Faillass. lol try this.
[email protected]/Focus Sash Timid 252sp.atk/252speed/6HP Ice Beam Thunderbolt Spikes/Shadow Ball/Destiny Bond Thunder Wave You'll have to breed for Spikes. Otherwise, you could try this. [email protected] Scarf *...wtf?* Lonely 204atk/112sp.atk/196speed Shadow Ball Ice Beam Wake-Up Slap Destiny Bond No bolting here sadly, but you could toss it in there at your own expense. Wake-Up Slap seems like a joke, but it 2HKOs Tyranitar and OHKOs Weavile, which you outspeed. Destiny Bond will down anything troublesome. Lastly, there's Choice Specs if you wanna give it a go. |
Spikes is a egg move, I did not know that. Thanks for the sets, I think mine is best suited for that first set.
|
Need a set for a Rest Cresselia and a Rest Bronzong.
I was thinking of the following: Cresselia @ Leftovers Bold 252 HP, 108 Def, 148 SpD Rest Charge Beam Reflect/Thunder Wave/Sleep Talk Ice Beam Or maybe Bronzong Bronzong @ Leftovers Relaxed 252 HP, 96 SpD, 152 Def, 8 Att (EV's slightly changed from Smogon for more survivability) Gyro Ball Reflect/Sleep Talk/Reflect/Stealth Rock Hypnosis Stealth Rock/Reflect/Sleep Talk What would do better at countering Mamo, Duggy, Chomp, etc... |
Quote:
Either would work, im not a fan of Rest-Zong, nor Rest cress, as both are offensively retarded making it an easy and essentially a free switch in to become set up fodder. Both have great utility moves so they should be utilized. Anyways, if you DO use rest -talk zong, more attack needs to be invested, aka 152. Just get wish support if your that worried about recovery. [email protected] / Shed Shell 252 HP / 152 ATT / 8 def / 96 sp.def Relaxed Nature Trait : levitate - Rest - Sleep Talk - Earthquake - Gyro ball OR [email protected] 252 HP / 72 ATT / 112 DEF / 74 SP.DEF Relaxed Nature Trait : levitate - Hypnosis - Stealth Rock / Reflect / Light Screen - Gyro Ball - Earthquake / Reflect / Light Screen [email protected] 20 HP / 252 DEF / 236 SP.ATT. Modest Nature - Ice Beam - Thunderwave / Charge beam / Psychic / Hidden power {Ground/Fighting} - Moonlight - Reflect So you dont get owned by Pursuit, and this set allows you to ohko said Chomp with ice Beam. Moves in second slot depend on what you want to hit, T-Wave slows stuf down, Charge Beam for Gyara, Psychic for Machamp etc, HP Fight to hit T-Tar and Weavile switch ins and HP Ground for Heatran. Best used with Wish support ^^. OR [email protected] 252 HP / 108 Def / 148 Sp.D Bold Nature - Rest - Sleep Talk - ice Beam - Thunderwave / Charge Beam / Psychic. W/E >_>. |
How about Suicune? Can it do well against Mamo, etc..? I REALLY want to try it out. Thanks for the sets by the way D_A <3
|
Quote:
|
Of course it hurts, but I think Cune can OHKO Mamo and Duggy w/ Surf and either OHKO or 2HKO with Ice Beam.
I'll replace Suicune later, but I want to try it out. Is Ice Beam/Surf/Rest/Calm Mind a good moveset? Can I have EVs that support this moveset? |
Quote:
Duggy cant even do squat to cune anyways with its eq lol Anyways, Sleep Talk-less Rest is not good in D/P, so much stuff gets free switch in. Try CroCune. [email protected] 252 HP / 252 DEF / 6 SP.DEF Bold nature - Rest - Sleep Talk - Surf - Calm Mind Owns. |
Can I PP stall other water types?
|
Quote:
Because you 2hko other non water absorb water types with +6 surfs lol. |
I'll try it out. Suicune looked so impressive from vids. Does GlisBlissCune makes a good walling trio or not?
|
Quote:
|
Couldn't Scarftran come in on a GK and OHKO it with Earth Power?
|
Maybe, but if you come in on Close Combat, you're screwed. Otherwise, you're safe (O noes HP GROUND!) However, if you switch it in on MixApe, then it's going to know you're Scarf'd 95% of the time.
For Rest-Talk Cresselia, if you want it to counter MixApe, then Psychic is a must. Charge Beam hits Gyarados and can break a stall war, and Ice Beam is for Dragons. |
Prediction is easy, but I could also come in on a Flamethrower, and people could guess I'm a nub thinking a Fire boost will win me the match.
|
How are these EV's for this set?
[email protected] Nature:Impish EV:252 HP/200 Def/58 Atk Power Whip Knock Off Leech Seed Tickle Ignore the Tickle, I'm just having fun with that for a while. But are the EV's sound? That, or 252 HP, 220 Def, 36 Atk But that seems like overkill to me. |
Hey guys. I'm working with kids this summer and one of them has a bunch of cheated pokes that were raised to 100 per rare candy cheat. (ledgendaries etc)
I'd like a team that I can make to mop the floor with him and the other 15 kids or so that have pearl/diamond. I have diamond only. What 6 pokes do you recommend with EV's and move sets that's an all round team, standard team, very popular or w/e that can take anything they throw at me. Keep in mind non of theirs have ev's or good move sets (most likely anyways). I have sapphire as well but would rather not restart that game if it's not needed. Thanks |
Well, what are you looking for? You'll need omething along these lines:
Special Sweeper Special Wall Physical Sweeper Physical Wall Status Absorber Cleric/Late Game Sweeper/Good Lead List the Pokes you intend to use. |
There isn't a position for "good lead" reserved on a team, as Anti had said better than me:
Quote:
The other two to me are more optionary, and what you want to add, or,more importantly what you need to add to make the team work. Mixed walls, cleric, etc. |
whats the best physical sweeping pokemon and can i have its moveset im open to alot of opions
|
Having a good lead can do a lot of things. With a good lead, you can get in some status, or a Hypnosis. With a bad lead, enemies can either KO you early, or force a member of your team to take a hit they don't want to.
|
Good leads are generally fun Pokemon. Crobat, Jumpluff, Scarf Transform Mew, etc.
There is no best physical sweeper, but some good ones are Garchomp, Metagross, Dragonite, Salamence, Breloom, Machamp, Medicham, Scizor... |
However, they are one time uses. As Anti said,reserving an entire slot for that one use is ridiculous. Many pokes that have other uses makes perfect leads. Swampert, Yanmega, etc, all make great leads, and are actually useful later on.
You are just about out one pokemoin when you reserve aspot just for leading. |
Well that's exactly it. I don't know what I want. If there are certain pokes for certain slots (special sweeper, special wall etc) can someone just list a team that has all the slots filled that's a pretty decent team? There must be a cookie cutter team and moveset no?
|
Hi, people. I like making teams, breeding, and training Pokemon, but when it comes to making a team I'm always brain-dead. Anyway, I am trying to build a new team, and I would really appreciate if anyone could tell me a 6th member that could aid my team. Here are the 5 Pokemon in my team and a few other notes:
http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpicon/dpicon465.png Tangrowth @Leftovers Leaf Guard Impish 252 HP/ 228 Def/ 30 Spd ~Leech Seed ~Sleep Powder ~Knock Off ~Power Whip Yeah, a Smogon Standard. I should probably stick to these until I have more team making experience, eh? Anyway, Tangrowth has done wonders for me. There are better walls out there, I guess, but I really like Tangrowth. The weakness to ice, however, hurts me ;_; http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpicon/dpicon248.png Tyranitar @ ?? Sand Stream Jolly 252 Atk/ 252 Spd/ 6 HP ~Crunch ~Dragon Dance ~Earthquake ~Ice Fang/Ice Beam Dragon Dance Tyranitar. This thing is very powerful once it set up, and can dent a few things before he does so. Ice Fang seemed appealing due to the Dragon Dance boost, but I'm guessing Ice Beam does more to walls that try to stop Tyranitar. Or is Stone Edge a better choice? I don't know, but until now an Ice Attack helps.Item too, pl0x? http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpicon/dpicon121.png Starmie @ ?? Natural Cure Timid 162 HP/ 132 SpA/ 216 Spd ~Surf ~Rapid Spin ~Recover ~Ice Beam/ThunderBolt Mah Spinner. This thing, too, has helped me out in a bunch of situations. I picked Ice Beam over T-Bolt for Dragons and Grass Types, but I'm not sure if that is really a smart move. I've been running this thing on Wise Glasses as a filler and for a small kick, but I'm guessing it's not the best. My dilemma here is on the last attack, I guess, because even though Ice Beam has been proved useful, maybe Thunderbolt will too, and even more. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpicon/dpicon143.png Snorlax @Leftovers Thick Fat Careful 170 HP / 120 Def / 220 SpD ~Rest ~Sleep Talk ~Body Slam ~Crunch As you might or might not have noticed, that's a Sleep Talk Snorlax with the EV's for a Curselax. Yeah, might fix that later; but in the meantime, this fat guy is one of my favourite. Of course, when I wanted to build my team, I was all 'Well, Blissey', but I decided to go with Snorlax in the end. And it has never let me down. It takes Special Attacks like the beast it is and usually enver leaves the field before hacing taken someone down or at least crippled him badly. Also, I left Crunch for ghosts, and it has fared well, though i'm considering EQ... http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpicon/dpicon462.png Magnezone @?? Magnet Pull Modest 174 HP / 252 SpA / 84 Spe ~Magnet Rise ~Substitue ~Discharge ~Hidden Power Ice (63) I used to have Electivire here, and it did help quite a bunch, but I decided to try Magnezone just to see what happened. It has let me down a few times, but luckily for him I'm forgiving :P I chose Discharge over Thunderbolt because I'm somewhat more of a defensive player on everything I do and crippling more opponents sounded nice. Discharge, however, has failed me. I've had Magnezone for relatively a long while, and I can count on one hand the times it has paralyzed opponents with Discharge >_>'. So, is Discharge worth it? Or should I plain out change Magnezone? ^^'. Ok, this are the 5 Pokemon in my team currently, and I need help on a 6th Team Member. I probably have to many weaknesses like to be listed, so I need a Pokemon that can work wonders >>'. I don't know if it should be an offensive Pokemon, a Deffensive Pokemon, or a supporter. Things that have crossed my mind are: Salamence; I have a MixMence I trained a while ago and he... He is cool, I guess. Bronzong; to help me out with Tangrowth's Ice Weakness and to take Outrages or something. Plus, Reflect/Light Screen and Stealth Rock support is very much appreciated. Spiritomb; just 'cause I think he's cool. Swampert; 'cause i liek mudkipz. And many others, though I don't know why something tells me none is a good pick. Soo... Help, someone? |

One of my friends is being constantly harassed by this noob who says that Blast Burn is always better than Heat Wave, and this noob's calling my friend a dumbass for saying the inverse. Not to mention, this kid's got a shitload of lv100 legendaries to show off, as well as a Wonder Guard Red Gyarados. That's one reason I'm raising a team; to kick his ass. Presumably, since this kid rare candied all his pokemon to lv100, they're not gonna be EV trained. He probably won't be using items either, and if he does, they're probably noob items (i.e. Silk Scarf, Sharp Beak, etc.) I need some good, solid advice on team roles; here's my current candidates for the big battle: Opener Jolteon @ Focus Sash Timid 6 HP/252 SPATK/252 SPD - Baton Pass - Agility - Substitute - Charge Beam Special Sweeper Togekiss @ Lum Berry Timid 6 HP/252 SPATK/252 SPD - Nasty Plot - Roost - Aura Sphere - Air Slash Physical Sweeper Garchomp @ Life Orb Jolly 6 HP/252 ATK/252 SPD - Swords Dance - Fire Fang - Earthquake - Dragon Claw Physical Wall Skarmory @ Shed Shell Impish 252 HP/6 ATK/252 DEF - Spikes - Drill Peck - Roar - Roost Special Wall Blissey @ Lefties Bold 252 DEF/200 HP/58 SPDEF (? I still have yet to trade a Chansey from my FireRed to Emerald and breed for a good one.) - Seismic Toss - Thunder Wave - Softboiled - Heal Bell Mixed Sweeper Electrivire @ Expert Belt Mild 138 ATK/120 SPATK/252 SPD (another Pokemon I haven't really bred for yet.) - Thunderpunch - Ice Punch - Flamethrower - Cross Chop Rapid Spinner/Stealth Rocker Donphan @ Passho Berry Impish 252 HP/58 ATK/200 DEF (3rd Pokemon not obtained yet) - Rapid Spin - Stealth Rock - Ice Shard - Earthquake So I need moveset and EV spread suggestions for the Pokemon I don't have yet, especially for 'Vire and Blissey. |
Quote:
|
Thanks! And yeah... ain't nothing like showing arrogant little kids they're not the best in the world.
EDIT: Forgot... Forry could run a good set similar to Donphan. |
Forry is great, but I just noticed, you lacked a serious fighting resist. I'd either replace Vire or Phan with either a Weezing or Gliscor.
|
Okay, so I'm just on my last week of holidays and decided that I could maybe finish off my Gallade and do a last mnute EV training spree. Anyways, I'm aiming for 3 poke's at the end of it all that will look like this:
Infernape @ Life Orb Jolly <6HP/252Attack/252Speed> Swords Dance Flare Blitz Close Combat Thunderpunch Standard Physical Attacker. Nuf said. Wanna be original and MixApe is too common so this would be a bit of an unpredictable switch in. They'll think he's carrying CB. lolwut? Gengar @ Wide Lens Timid <6HP/252Sp.Attack/252Speed> Hypnosis Shadow Ball Thunder Bolt Focus Blast Standard Gengar with Wide Lens. Wide Lens is for the accuracy as Hypnosis and Focus Blast are an important part of this moveset. No more said. Heracross @ Flame Orb/Wide Lens Adamant <6HP/252Attack/252Speed> Swords Dance Megahorn Close Combat Facade Well I'm thinking Flame Orb to be original but Wide Lens would increase the accuracy of Magehorn. I'll be using Swarm to power up Megahorn. Not sure, never made a Heracross set before. So, uhm, yeah, tell me what you think. They aren't going to be in my team but I'll put them in as substitutes or replacements if one of my team poke's isn't working. |
Go Stone Edge > Thunderpunch on Nape. It's more useful and more powerful.
|
How's this for an Umbreon set? I already have Gliscor so I was thinking of making this guy a Special Wall.
Umbreon @ Leftovers Careful Nature (+SpD, -SpA) 252 HP /56 Def /200 SpD - Baton Pass - Mean Look - Toxic - Wish EDIT: I feel kinda stupid now. I meant Special Wall, not Special Sweeper >_> |
Umbreon cannot do the job of a special wall well, due to its weaknesses and its inability to prevent setups (eg. if a Togekiss Nasty Plots, what can it do?)
I wouldn't recommend a special wall per se as judging by my previous battles, noone runs them and more often than not they provide free switch ins. Your best bets should be either Blissey or Shuckle (the latter in Sandstorm, which Tyranitar or Hippowdon can set up): Blissey @ Leftovers Calm, 252 Def/80 SpA/176 SpD Natural Cure Seismic Toss Ice Beam Thunder Wave Softboiled Shuckle @ Leftovers Impish/Relaxed/Bold, 252 HP/252 Def/4 SpD Sturdy/Gluttony Toxic Encore Rest Stealth Rock/Knock Off/Body Slam/Sleep Talk |
Alright. The Shuckle seems interesting, I think I'll use it. Thanks for the help.
|
Uh there are a lot of downsides to using Shuckle > Blissey if you haven't noticed, I would say go Blissey. Shuckle can wall physical stuff but would take a huge hit, and if Stealth Rocks are up on the field it would rob it of 25% health everytime it switches in. It still has more weaknesses than Blissey, including most notably the Water weakness.
