Hey, could I have a team that's just overall good for OU? I don't want ANY Ubers.
|
Can I get movesets for the following?;
Typhlosion Heracross Skarmory Blissey Starmie Not sure what should go in the last spot. Yeah, so I need alot of help. XD My only essential pokemon is Typhlosion so any changes made to the others are fine. =D |

Smogon is your friend! Also, for the last spot, try a support pokemon. |

My friend and I are doing an NU-tier battle just for the heck of it, and I need a good moveset for my Bidoof.
Current moveset: Bidoof @ Shell Bell Return Aqua Tail Superpower Amnesia |
I believe Bidoof is NFE, unless of course you meant Bibarel
[email protected] Orb/Leftovers Adament/Jolly Nature EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 6 HP Simple -Double Edge/Return -Waterfall -Superpower -Quick Attack Simple doubles all stat changes made, so if you pass him a SD it essentially passes 2 to him (unless my understanding is off). Quick Attack is there to finish off weakened foes (Focus Sashers). The rest is because that's pretty much all he can do |
You're quite right Angelic Diablo.
I still recommend running Super Fang on all Bibarel sets- it's just that awesome of an attack. Also, it's worth mentioning Pluck, which OHKO's Breloom and Heracross even without the SD. You could always run Amnesia and get a +4 Sp. Def boost. Bibarel also learns Taunt, another simply awesome move. |
I'm guessing that you want the Typhlosion as a Special Sweeper??
[email protected] Rash 252 SAtk/ 238 Speed/ 20 HP OR (Pref.) 252 SAtk / 238 Speed / 8 HP / 8 Defense - Fire Blast - Eruption - Sunny Day / ??? - Solar Beam (Only If You Use Sunny Day, or have your other pkmn use it during double battle) |

Also, this is not a Special Sweeper, but a Chlorophyll-less Sunnybeamer. I recommend a lead Typhlosion with Choice Scarf; Typhlosion @ Choice Scarf Blaze 252 Sp. Atk / 144 Atk / 112 Speed Mild/Rash - Eruption - Focus Punch - Overheat - Hidden Power [Ice] A full powered Eruption is something to fear when coming from an above average Special Attack, backed up with Choice Scarf and 112 Speed EVs, outspeeding Base 130 Pokémon. The Atk EVs allow your prediction to pay off by 2HKOing Blissey, in case the oponent switches her in to take the Eruption. Overheat is for whenever your Eruption isn't powered up anymore due to residual damage [Typhy is weak to Stealth Rock], HP Ice for those pesky Dragons. You could change Overheat or HP for Earthquake to kick Heatran's balls in case it comes trying to absorb your Eruption, but a Focus Punch also cripples it pretty badly. |

Any pokemon that would work particularly well in tangent with Typhlosion? |
Since Typhlosion is weak to SR, packing a Rapid Spinner is usually a good choice.
Blissey, Snorlax and Milotic all wall it- so having something to destroy them usually pays off, too. Blissey and Snorlax have problems against Machamp, while I recommend using Starmie to take care of Milotic. |

2) I stated that it would work better if a partner pokemon used before you sent out the Typho, or if a partner Pokemon used it during Double Battle 3) Typo 4) Typho has rather low defence, and you don't want some phyical sweeper ground typed Pokemon KOing you with Eq 5) Again, why not? 6) Excuse me, for not being up-to-date on terms, and a Chlorophyll-less Sunnybeamer, is just a type of Special Sweeper, is it not? |

You don't need to cover only types you're weak against- scoring SE hits against walls is just as important. |
Devi is right, sunnybeam sucks. The boost to fire moves is minimal and solarbeam is a sucky move with terrible coverage. It also makes you extremely predictable with 3 of your 4 moves already open to the public. Heatran walls you no end too. Use the set devi suggested.

Making up a team of Pokemon using movesets that are either using their weakest stat (such as Specslax) or just weird movesets/EVs. This team will probably be novelty, but I need some help.
Here is a Tyranitar I'm working on: Tyranitar @ Choice Scarf 232 SpA, 62 Spe, 216Att Hasty Nature Dynamic Punch Dragon Pulse Crunch Thunderbolt Meh, maybe this will be unheard of and hopefully unused currently. Snorlax @ Choice Specs 252 HP, 252 SpA, 6 Def Modest Nature Blizzard/Ice Beam Focus Blast Thunderbolt/Thunder Fire Blast/Flamethrower Snorlax has an excellent Special movepool, so why not? Confused at what to use; Base 120 attacks for power, or Base 95 for accuracy. Lax needs all the power he can get with that sagging 65 Base SpA Blissey @ Life Orb 252 HP, 252 Att, 6 Def Adamant Nature Double Edge Dynamic Punch Earthquake Softboiled Awesome coverage xD. Life Orb so I can Softboiled. Alakazam @ Focus Sash 252 Def, 202 HP, 56 SpD Calm Safeguard Reflect Light Screen Thief Walling Zam is awesome. If I can get up all three, I can sweep, sweep, sweep with everyone else. Gengar @ Life Orb 252 Att, 252 Spe, 6 HP Adamant Shadow Claw Focus Punch Substitute Ice Punch Nothing can wall the mad attack of physical GENGAR! Infernape @ Leftovers 252 Def, 252 SpD, 6 HP Bold Protect Will O Wisp Slack Off U-Turn Inferwall. Slack Off gives me instant heal. Will O Wisp lets me halve enemy attack stats. Protect for scouting and U-Turn to switch in a counter. |
I'm sorry, but deliberately misusing pokes does not warrent a rate. If they were novelty yet plausible i would, but as it stands there is no point with half of those pokes.

And I think Simple only works for moves used ON it and not baton passed to it. By the way, what does NFE mean? |
Quote:

I think that Pokemon are only placed in the NFE tier if they are exactly like their evolutions. For example, Sneasel is NFE, as he is simply an underpowered Weavile. Someone like Porygon2, however, is considered UU (I think) because he's bulkier than his epileptic evolution. And I shouldn't have to bring up Scyther.
Since Bidoof doesn't have the secondary Water typing of Bibarel, he's considered a different Pokemon, and placed in a relevant tier. I think. :/ |
Inferwall was win :( But I actually am interested in Scarftar. Is it better than CB at leads considering the extra speed?
|
Can someone help me for a moveset for a Salamence? I generally want him to be a mixed sweeper since I have 2 special sweepers and 1 physical sweeper. Any ideas?
