Who's your "HM Slave" In Ruby and Sapphire?
I just decided to get back into Pokemon, and since I lost my cartridge, and my DS got stolen (tragic stuff) a couple years back. I decided now to boot up some roms of Sapphire, and Pearl, I'm playing through Sapphire, and I was wondering what Pokemon you like to use to pile all of your HM moves on. I'm thinking Linoone for this play through.
|
Same one I used, so naturally, I would say, "Great Choice!"
|
i used zigzagoon it was also good for randomly finding Rare Candies with its Pick up Ability
|
For Platnium i use Gligar, Defog, Strength, Rock smash,Cut
Perfect :) |
It's always the little furry thing you get in the very beginning that make the best typical slaves.
(ex. Zigzagoon,Bidoof, and furret*I think*) |
I used zigzagoon but gligar later on then onix then all 3 for no reason XD
|
I used Sharpedo and Tropius. Sharpedo can learn Surf,Waterfall,Dive,Strength and Tropius can learn Flash,Cut,Fly and Rock smash! So they were perfect HM Slaves for me.(Early in the game I used zigzagoon).:D
|
I use Swampert because it can learn surf, waterfall, dive, and rock smash. Even though all its moves are HM, it still is a very reliable pokemon in battle.
|
I used Zizagoon and Linoone for HM slaves. xD They could learn Surf,Cut,Rocksmash and some other ones. Didn't want to teach HMs to my battle team lol. And for Dive and Waterfall I think I used Swampert..
|
I used Zigzagoon. Sometimes I used Geodude too.
|
I just started a new game on Sapphire a few days ago so at the moment, Skitty is the unfortunate little blighter. How it can learn Flash will forever be a mystery...
Unless it swiped a torch somewhere along my travels. |
I used zigzagoon early in the game and then used Tentacool and Tropius since all HMs can be learned between the two of them.
|
Linoone can learn a lot of HM moves and also has a very useful pickup ability. However, Tropius is probably the best HM slave because it learns Cut, Fly, Strength, Rock Smash, and Flash (all the non-water HMs). Azumarill can learn the 3 water HMs (Waterfall, Surf, Dive), Rock Smash, and Strength. Having those 2 pokemon is enough to navigate through the game. I usually don't have an HM slave. I generally spread out my HMs among a few pokemon. I've never had a pokemon with only HM moves. I don't like having a pokemon on my team with a severely limited move set.
I remember that I once taught my Hariyama to Surf because I didn't have any water pokemon. I thought it was a little funny how an obese fighter is able to Surf. |
Zigzagoon and Electrike... I don't think I ever trained my Electrike at all, I just used it for HM's.
|
zigzagoon and mightyeana are mine as they are the easyesy to catch and have good abilitys
|
I've only used "HM slaves" a couple times in various pkmn. games. But the one I did (Emerald) I used, of course, Zigzagoon. :D I don't like using "HM Slaves" so normally I teach my regular pokemon: Cut, surf, fly and strength. I find another pokemon to use: Dive, rocks smash (and later) rock climb and defog.
|
i used kecleon, lol. (nincada and gulpin earlier for flash, cut, strength and rock smash)
|
I actually found out recently that Absol makes an awesome HM slave... it learns Cut, Flash, Rock Smash, and Strength...
I also use Wailmer for Dive and Waterfall... and I throw Rock Smash and Strength onto it too when I have to go underwater to the underwater cavern thing |
I remember using Zigzagoon most often.
|
Zigzagoon/Linoone, because it can learn most of the HM moves that I wouldn't want to teach to my main team (i.e. anything but Surf, Strength, and Waterfall) and because its Pickup ability gives it another use.
|
Zigzgoon/Linoone or Poochyana, they are both good HM slaves.
|
My HM Slave would probably be Linoone. XD;;. Just used it when im in an important joirney. :DD. Linonne is really useful. ^^
~Fairytales. |
Swampert + Zigzagoon. Although neither can learn Flash.
|
I... have several HM Slaves. XD; Right now, Wailmer is going to be my current one, with Surf, Dive, Strength, and Rock Smash so I can go through the Cave of Origin. >>;;
|
... Slakoth XD
Who knew such a small creature could come in handy? And Wailmer is usually my Water HM slave. |
