Sceptile Moveset!
My sister's giving me a gold nugget on FireRed if I can fix up her "Treeky".
I just want to see other's opinon on this, I'll try nmot to get all defensive, but some moves of his are TM one-time moves, so I'll only delete them if I must. Treeky/Sceptile @ MiricleSeed Lv. 84 Lonely nature Ability: Overgrow Attacks: Dragon Claw Dig Leaf Blade -- -- (no attack) ATK:190 DEF: 126 SP.ATK: 194 SP.DEF: 172 Speed: 240 If possible, can it made so that False Swipe is used? It's super useful, and my sis just wants a powerful Treecko for both battles and catching wild pokémon. |
In battle, False Swipe is rather useless, since you want to defeat the opponent and not capture their pokemon.
Here's what I use for Sceptile on NetBattle. It's an old standard, but it works [email protected] Berry EV: 252 Speed, 252 Sp Att, 6 Def Nature: +Speed, - Att Dragon Claw Crunch Leaf Blade Hidden Power Fire Now, since this is in-game, and it doesn't look like you've EV trained that Sceptile at all, I'd say you need to go read up on it. |
Treeky/Sceptile @ MiricleSeed
Lv. 84 Lonely nature Ability: Overgrow Attacks: Bulk Up Solarbeam Sunny Day False Swipe ATK:190 DEF: 126 SP.ATK: 194 SP.DEF: 172 Speed: 240 I haven't EV trained it, and my sister thinks it's useless to do it. :p Anyway, since Treeky's attack is raised by Overgrow, MiricleSeed will help raise attack too, and with Bulk up and Sunny Day, he should have a heck of a SolarBeam, right? Forgive me if I'm wrong, I'm just an all-out attack type person who isn't any good with moveset. XD |
Bulk Up is illegal for Sceptile, and it boosts attack not special attack. Overgrow activates only when you're almost dead, and miracle seed's power boost is so little that it won't make any difference at all for Sceptile.
Check the Pokemon Battledex for Sceptile's entry, and how to use it. |
Bulk Up is definately a wasted move here, since all of Treecko's power is based on Special Attack. Grass moves are based on Special Attack, and Bulk Up only increases his Attack and Defence, something which is very useless for him.
Making him a Sunnybeamer (Sunny Day + Solarbeam combo) is a very bad move, because its just asking for a fire type to toast him to death. Sceptile is fast, but there are things out there which are faster, and if he doesn't take them down he's dead himself. EV training is also worth the effort, since it makes the difference between OHKO and 99% damage sometimes, and that little sliver of life can be just enough for your opponent to survive and kill you instead. |
Um.. what's the battledex? XD I'm stupid.
|
Just go here, there's a whole section devoted to Sceptile:

Okay, so..
Treeky/Sceptile @ Leftovers Lv. 84 Lonely nature Ability: Overgrow Attacks: Leech Seed Substitute Leaf Blade False Swipe And then I EV train it in Speed and Sp. Atk? |
Actually, since you're at such a high level, all your EVs are probably spent already. Go and breed a new Sceptile, do the EV training first (Speed and Special Attack), then level him up.
|
O.o Okay. Thanksies people! ^_^
|
This set works for me. I maxed out Speed and Sp.Atk. I also use Dragon Claw over Crunch, 2hkoed R-Dancing Kindgra o.O!

I’d go HP ice over Dragon Claw. @[email protected] Dragon Claw has just about one use and Kingdra’s it. HP ice will do much better on Salamence and Flygon, etc. Any water type more or less pwns Kingdra anyways, even if it goes HP elec.

Of course, you'll have to wait for the game to come out for that. But they finally made Sceptile into the ultimate grass type special sweeper. |

Gyarados, off-hand is the only real use for Thunder Punch on it. |
