Gengar @ Life Orb Timid 252 SpA / 252 Spe / 4 HP - Shadow Ball - Focus Blast - Thunderbolt - Hypnosis Considering how Platinum destroyed Hypnosis and its accuracy, are you using D/P? ?_? Gengar @ Choice Scarf / Choice Specs Timid 252 SpA / 252 Spe / 4 HP - Shadow Ball - Focus Blast - Thunderbolt - Trick / Hidden Power Ice Use Trick if you want to mess up Gengar's counters or Hidden Power Ice for revenging Dragons. |

Either life orb for all out or wide lense. Then just a 6 hp /252 speed / 252 sp.att spread @ timid. You can also scarf it or specs it, then trick becomes an option too. |

Adamant 252Att/252Spd/6HP Outrage Earthquake Fire Punch Sucker Punch This nidoking hads sold so many records, he's gone platinum :P Terrible joke, but hows the moveset? Dragon-Ground-Fire hits the entire metagame for neutral, Outrage and STAB EQ hit amazingly hard between them. Sucker Punch for priority. Is it at all viable or is it better to stick with the current standard? |
^
Except that Nido doesnt have the attack enough to use it effectively and Non-STAB Outrage is USELESS. Mixed Nidos work much better in UU as they can effectively take down Steelix( Earth Power) and other walls. |
Can someone give me a set for a Registeel/rock.ice For a trick room team?
|
Can I get a moveset for Lapras?
|
imunster:
If you'll use it in UU, use this set: Lapras (M) @ Life Orb Ability: Water Absorb EVs: 16 HP/252 Atk/224 Spd/16 SAtk Naughty nature (+Atk, -SDef) - Dragon Dance - Hydro Pump - Ice Beam - Return Its a wall-breaking Lapras. DONT chnage the EV's unless you want to miss out on some crucial 2HKO's and OHKO's. Basically,Dragon Dance, then hit their incoming physical wall with Hydro Pump / Ice Beam. Hit special walls hard with a boosted Return. May seem odd at first glance but is VERY effective. |
Is this useable?:
Shiny Meditite @ Serious 31/31/31/x/31/31 It was my first chain.. I got super lucky :x |
Awww, dammit, so close, Franklin!
Serious, unfortunately is an unusable nature. Adamant/Jolly is the way to go with Medicham. |
Can I also get a moveset for absol?
|
Absol with razor claw or scope lens with super luck
Night slash sucker punch psycho cut stone edge |

[email protected] Orb Nature:Adamant/Jolly EVs: 252 Att, 252 Spd, 6 HP Ability: Super Luck Moves: Sucker Punch/Night Slash SwordsDance Psycho Cut X-Scissor SD power up and proceed to sweep. Sucker Punch is priority while Nght Slash has high crit rate. Psycho Cut for crits, X-Scissor for Dark types that wall you. Also, could someone give me a good set for my Relaxed Uxie, if there is one? |
[email protected] *Not a Cresselia*
Relaxed 252HP/252def/6sp.def Stealth Rock U-Turn Yawn Thunderbolt/Psychic/Protect Don't treat this like a Cresselia, which is impossible thanks to its different support. Stealth Rock early, then proceed to U-Turn things and build up SR damage. Yawn assists in causing switches or putting something to sleep. The last slot is for whatever you need support for: Thunderbolt for Gyara/Starmie, Psychic for STAB and Infernape/Heracross, and Protect to scout Choiced attacks, letting Yawn safely activate, and providing Leftovers recovery. |

Can I get a moveset for Dragonite and Vileplume/Bellosom (whichever is better)

What would be a good pokemon to cover scarfed jolly medicham's weaknesses and counters?

But yeah, 3 of the 5 counters named by smogon (Celebi, Cresselia and Dusknoir) are all weak to ghost/dark attacks. All three of these pokes are also EV'd with physical defence in mind, so a special sweeper with access to a ghost/dark move should work. Smogon also list gyara/salamence as counters due to intimidate, so HP Ice gengar could work: [email protected] Orb Timid 252SpAtt/252Spd/6HP Shadow Ball Focus Blast HP Ice Thunderbolt Standard set really, just with HP Ice over hypnosis (If you're playing platinum you'd do this anyway). Shadow ball hits the first 3 counters for STAB'd super effective damage. while thunderbolt/HP ice nail the final 2 for quad-damage. Obviously gengar cannot switch into the latter two, but if you can remove them prior to showing medicham then they're one less thing to worry about. |
Also note, however, that Medicham is weak to Ghost, as is Gengar. Have fun switching in against Dusknoir. Cressy and Celebi can run their STAB Psychic to kill Gar, so I think this is more sane, although harder to get.
[email protected] Specs Modest 252sp.atk/212speed/40HP Fire Blast/Flamethrower Earth Power Dragon Pulse Explosion/Hidden Power Grass/Overheat Heatran is usually Scarfed these days, so SpecsTran runs a nice surprise that can't be dealt with until it's too late. Anyway, this can switch into most sets of the above 3 Pokemon (barring Earth Power Celebi, Earthquake Dusknoir, or HP Ground Cressy, which honestly, you shouldn't see at all) I shouldn't have to explain the moveset. In the last spot, Overheat is your "Crush things now wonder what comes in later" move. HP Grass smashes apart waters that come in (bar Gyara), and Dragon Pulse for neutral coverage and Mence. |
Hmmm, Gengar and Specstran? Seems pretty fun, however, could this also work alongside Medicham?: (bar the psychic weakness)
[email protected] Band/Scarf 252 atk/252 spe/6 hp Adamant - Megahorn - Stone Edge - Close Combat - Night Slash/Sleep Talk The main reason why Cresselia is the main counter to medicham, is it resists all of its moves and can destory it with thunder wave, which is the only reason why band hera is listed here. However, Cress dies immediatly from megahorn. Dusknoir only can use Will-o-Wisp against Medicham, which Hera loves to switch into, and it might scare off Dusknoir. Sleep Talk could be used against Spiritomb, another Medicham counter. But in all honesty, I'm most likely going with SpecsTran.. *sigh* the most standard pokemon.. |
Can I get a moveset for Dragonite?
