Mainly the same, unless you want Gunk Shot lol.

shedinjask September 28th, 2008 11:27 AM

Actually since it now gets Bounce it is perfectly viable to run an all Magikarp team.

Snorlax is mostly the same except for Superpower and I guess Seed Bomb if you're tired of Swamperts.

Ah, yes, very right, very right indeed. Go Team Karp.

4th Gen Matt September 28th, 2008 1:30 PM

I just joined a new league called the Azelf League. It is really fun and is about to start. You can check it out from the link in my signature.

Anyway, I need to make a team out of 6 Pokemon for the league. However, the league requires you to choose a tier and only use Pokemon from that tier. I chose tier 2, which contains these Pokemon:

Charizard; Typhlosion; Blaziken; Infernape; Beedrill; Wigglytuff; Victreebell; Kingler; Hitmonlee; Tentacruel; Ampharos; Wobbuffet; Corsola; Miltank; Shiftry; Sableye; Golem; Crawdaunt; Walrein; Bibarel; Gastrodon; Weezing; Electivire; Froslass; Fearow; Venomoth; Rapidash; Marowak; Gyarados; Moltres; Sudowoodo; Dunsparce; Mantine; Ninjask; Gardevoir; Medicham; Spinda; Armaldo; Relicanth; Roserade; Loppuny; Toxicroak; Yanmega; Mesprit; Raichu; Golduck; Dodrio; Lucario; Vaporeon; Noctowl; Sunflora; Qwilfish; Kingdra; Delcatty; Snorlax; Torkoal; Clefable; Kecleon; Metagross; Wormadam; Purugly; Abomasnow; Gliscor; Regigigas; Nidoking; Polywrath; Starmie; Omastar; Crobat; Umbreon; Heracross; Porygon2; Beautifly; Exploud; Swalot; Lunatone; Chimecho; Registeel; Pachirisu; Chatot; Licklicky; Magnezone; Leafeon, Garchomp


Exclude all of the ubers. Anyway, I could really use some help on my team. It does not have to be all OU Pokemon. Infact, I would prefer only 3 OU and 3 UU. I would also like it if you could somehow work this Hitmonlee into the team.

Hitmonlee @ Life Orb
Ability: Limber
Nature: Jolly
EV's: 252 Atk, 4 SpD, 252 Spe
Close Combat
Stone Edge
Earthquake
Blaze Kick

This Hitmonlee can rip through a handful of OU Pokemon. He is not as weak as many believe.

Anyway, thanks for your help!

good moveset/nature for rydon?
 
Like the subject says... I am playing ruby and thinking of catching a ryhorn and training it, so I was wondering what is a good move set for him/her and what nature should I go after more. I'm into speed and defence for natures, so tell me a good one. thanks who ever helps me. =]

wolf September 28th, 2008 2:32 PM

Go for a nature called impish, raises defense but lowers special attack. A moveset for rhydon would be... Earthquake, maybe hyper beam, substitute, focus punch, if you find it hard to get these tms, or don't want to use them, then use this moveset:
Earthquake
Mega Horn
Hyper Beam
Iron Tail

Tell me if you don't like these movesets.

Okay I don't think hyper beam will work that much if i'm getting a impish ryhorn/rydon. Also I don't use all attacking moves. For an example, I would use 3 moves and one like protect or sumthing. I hope you get my drift. xD

Yeah I just thought about it, let me see... What about this:
Attract
Toxic
Substitute
Focus Punch
or...
Attract
Toxic
Rest
Iron Tail or some high type of pp move
He should hold a chesto berry for rest.

Your Welcome!^^ With its high defense already and impish nature and once the opponent knocks his hp down you use rest and by the time you did that the foe might be fainted by now because of toxic, and with attract it would help him stay in longer.

Detox September 28th, 2008 3:19 PM

I basically want my little uxie to be of some use so i need help with a staller set....

ABYAY September 28th, 2008 8:06 PM

For Diamond/Pearl

[email protected]
Bold
252HP/252def/6sp.def

U-Turn
Stealth Rock
Yawn
Thunderbolt/Psychic/Protect

This set softens up the foe until your team can attempt a sweep. Stealth Rock is obligatory, Yawn helps cause switches, and U-Turn to help set up a counter to your foe's Uxie counter. The last slot has debate; Thunderbolt hits Gyarados, Psychic pairs okay with U-Turn for damage, and Protect scouts, as well as allowing Leftovers to give more healing.

For Platinum...I don't know much. Maybe throw in Knock Off somewhere to give more team support.

Also...wtf at those above sets for a Rhydon? Those are crap... Is it for Ruby/Sapphire? If so...

[email protected] Band
Adamant, Rock Head
252HP/252atk/6spd

Megahorn
Earthquake
Rock Slide/Rock Blast
Focus Punch/Double-Edge

CB Rhydon; hard to use, but sure as heck hits hard. Bring it in on a Tauros Return, and predict to kill something. Rock Blast is considerable with its ability to break Substitutes, but is rather unreliable. The last slot is prediction power vs. safety. Double-Edge with Rock Head gives a powerful attack with no recoil.

Infernape Girl 17 September 29th, 2008 4:48 AM

hi i would like to know what a good moves i can use on my leafeon for wifiing. my leafeon has impish nature which raises defense which is cool. so far on it i have wish razor leaf grasswhistle and roar. shouldi go with leaf balde instead or stay with razor leaf since razor leaf has more pp i think.

No ingame stuff please. Read the rules. This is competitive forum.

252 HP / 252 ATT / 6 DEF
Trait : Rock Head
Adamant Nature
~ Megahorn
~ Earthquake
~ Rock Slide / Rock Blast / Hidden Power Rock

Rock Blast breaks subs (See Ninjask). Double Edge hits Claydol/Weezing, Focus Punch his Skarmory harder than anything and other moves should be self explanatory.

Adamant Nature
212 HP / 122 Atk / 176 Spe
Trait : Rock Head

Sub set pretty much.

Hi I know this may seem like a dumb quewstion but I just heard I cant use my garchomp in OU anymore. Is this true? and if it is can anyone suggest an alternative. Thanks :)

Angelic Diablo September 30th, 2008 12:47 AM

Yep, Garchomp has been moved up to the Uber tier, but the problem with your second part is there is no proper replacement.

Salamence is the best Dragon counterpart, where as with his resistances and Sand Veil, LO SD Gliscor could also sorta fill the slot.

Unfortunately both have tried and true counters, where as Garchomp just did not, hence the reason it moved to Ubers.

At least with Platinum Salamance gets Outrage as well.

Hmm....Ok thanks I will consider that. I have a mixmence set at the moment....May breed him :)

Adding to Angelic Diablo's post... Flygon has the same typing as Garchomp as well.

In reverse, yes (it doesn't matter anything battlewise thought). Flygon should be really getting more attention after Garchomp beeing moves to Ubers.

Yup, Charizard learns those moves in D/P, but maybe if you took the time to read his post you would of noticed he said "moves available in leaf green".

Walrein September 30th, 2008 8:16 AM

Oh, sorry. So use Dragon Claw insted of the non-existing Dragon Pulse.

FinalPaladin September 30th, 2008 8:35 AM

physicalzard

dragonclaw/outrage(could use dragonrush but meh)
flareblitz
earthquake
focuspunch
