Tropius is quite the beast in UU where there are no Tyranitar, Hippowdon, or Abomasnow to screw up the sunlight. You seem to understand it needs Sunlight or it can be deadweight on your team. I don't really like either of those sets though. I can't think of it now, but I know Smogon had a good Tropius move set.

Tropius (♂) @ Life Orb/Leftovers Ability: Chlorophyll EVs: 6 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Swords Dance - Leaf Blade - Aerial Ace - Earthquake Which is basically the same, except that it has Life Orb instead of Sash, Adamant instead of Jolly and EQ instead of Body Slam. Though, I felt that he could use more speed, since he's gonna be SDing. But then again, they're the experts. =/ --- No set for a special wall though. I think he could make a darn good UU special wall. |
Quote:
Blastoise/Espeon/Snorlax/Charizard/Venasaur/Pikachu You COULD remake it, but it would need better moves and it would have to be EVed. |
Tropius has too many key weaknesses to effectively wall. If you have Sunny Day support, it doesn't need that much speed.
|
I don't see the point of Roar on Hippowdon. If you are against a special sweeper and you use Roar, you will most likely attack after your opponent, so a Surf, Ice Beam, Grass Knot e.t.c will kill you before you can do anything about it.
I guess it could be used to force your opponent to send out a pokemon you have a better chance against, but even then you may end up with a worse situation on your hands. I think it could be put to better use, like Curse or Thunder Fang. I don't really know though. So I just wanna know why it's used instead of other moves? EDIT: Uugh, I think I might have posted this in the wrong place.. =\ |
Quote:
Most of what you said is "if if if." Problem is, nobody is going to leave Hippowdon in to get massacred by a special attacker. That's why we switch out. |
Thanks. I get that I missed a lot about it now..
Btw, I was thinking of using Thunder Fang for Bronzong, Skarmory and Gyarados mainly.. =\ |
Can anyoen give me the standard set for Mixed Nidoking?

Hi could someone post me a set for slow marowak? I dont think its worth speeding it up without passing to it aswell (Which im not planing on doing) So far I've got
[email protected] Club Adamant 252HP/152Att/106Def Swords Dance Bonemerang Stone Edge Fire Punch (According to serebii it can learn it) |
Quote:
Max attack as well. You probably will want speed as Marowak does need some of it. |
Should i put Porygon Z into my team?
Whats so good about him anyway? |
Pory Z is a good edition to a team because SpAtt is a beastly 135. It also has great coverage, and above-average speed. He's possibly my favorite special sweeper.

Quote:
The real gem is that adaptability Tri Attack of Pory-Z's, which will kill most things. |
can i get a move set for lucario tyranitar, and starmie??? -thanks

You definately need a Physical Wall. Swap out Venasaur for Skarm. Blastoise can stay, but the set needs changing. Pikachu obviously needs Light Ball; otherwise, it's out. It can be Physical or Special, although you could run Special w/ Nasty Plot. Espy wants Specs although it isn't the best user of it. Snorlax wants ReSTalk. Charizard can run Specs or Belly Drum (although BD would work better for this team). If you don't like Belly Drum, then you can DD/SD as well. |
What's a better choice for my Electivire:
[email protected] Orb/Expert Belt Adamant 252 Atk/252 Spd/6Hp -Thunderpunch -IcePunch -Cross Chop -EarthQuake OR [email protected] ? Lonely 252 ATk/ 252 Sp.Atk/6 Spd -Thunderbolt -Cross Chop -EarthQuake -Ice Punch/? I'm having a "Fun" Time deciding this.. Somewhat ThunderPunch doesn't 'Satisfy' me as much as Thundrbolt does, but the I'd be losing lots of EV's just for one attack, unless I Change Ice Punch. Any help or changes you could do to this, people? |
The second set would be best, but not with those EVs. Vire wants max Speed- split the remaining EVs between his two attacks.
NOTE: You only need Thunderbolt to take out Skarmory and a few other walls. Nothing else. |
I personally run the first set, which is pretty good.
I'd concentrate on physical than mixed, since you keep your Speed EVs. Well that my opinion pal :) |
Hm.. by that I'm taking the First one would be best, since apparently Vire needs the Speed. Guess I'll just have to live up to ThunderPunch, then. Thanks.
|
Vire can use the second set, just don't take EVs from his speed. You can be more original than a 252/252 spread.
|
Hm.. What'd you recommend as a split? Heh, I'm still a n00bzor at the EV Theme.
|
Go 252 att / 176 speed / 80 spatt.
I prefer this [email protected] Orb 252 SP.ATT / 76 ATT / 180 SPEED Mild / Rash nature - Cross Chop - Flamethrower - Hidden power Ice / Hidden power Grass - Thunderbolt Its alot harder to wall than the physical one with or without t-bolt. |
