rate my heracross
i can also except gen 5 moves
Heracross Ability: Guts Item: ??? Nature: Adamant Stats: HP: 364 Atk: 383 Def: 249 Sp.Atk: 161 Sp.Def: 289 Spe: 269 Moveset: Megahorn Close Combat Earthquake Stone Edge opinions are welcome i designed this for gen IV but with black and white and i will probably send him over to gen V. So gen V moves are also welcome. |
Well, uh, this is kinda of an impossible statlist. D:
A Pokemon can only have a total of 510 EVs to be distributed to stats... Yours has 1530. It can't have max in everything. The most is only two stats. But, I guess I would recommend giving it a Choice Scarf as a hold item, and 252 Attack / 252 Speed / 4 HP in Evs. |

I'm kinda knew to the whole competetive battling scene, which I am soon to get into. My question is:
Does Baton Pass transfer ALL Stat changes or only POSITIVE Stat changes. Like if I used Curse and then Baton pass, would it transfer the speed Drop too? |
Yeah, I think it transfers all. It transfers some more things too:
Stockpile effects, charge effects, substitute, confusion, curse, perish song counter, leech seed, ingrain, aqua ring, the higher crit rate (after focus energy, for example), defense curl bonus (for rollout), mean look (and similar)... |
Ok... What pokemon would be reccomended as a revenge killer In OU?
|
I think it depends on what are you looking to revenge kill... :s
Most revenge killers have a choiced item, I think XD |
Quote:
As for suggestions about the Heracross, if this is just for storyline purposes it would be fine, but if you plan on using it for Wi-Fi I would get rid of Stone Edge for an entry hazard or physical attack/speed-boosting move (if Heracross can learn any of those, I really don't know anything about Hercross's movepool aside from MegaHorn.) If you can't find an entry hazard or good stat boosting move, Venoshock wouldn't be a bad replacement either, since Toxic and Toxic Spikes are used so often in Wi-Fi, but it's use would probably be fairly situational, and I'm not sure if it would benefit you more than Stone Edge would. |
Well my plan for my team is to have like a lead Azelf to, well, Lead off my team, and then I have Dragonite, Lucario, and Snorlax, with a Magnezone to counter Dragonite's biggest weakness, Scizor. I want to have some sort of revenge killer in my last slot. I'm thinking something that can take out Gengar, since He's probably one of my biggest Weaknesses.
Does that help? |
If a Pokemon has between 90 and 100 EVs on a stat, will a vitamin work or not? I need to know this to figure out what my EVs are (was EV training and lost attention for a minute, now unsure if I have 28 or 30 on one stat). Thanks in advance.
|
Vitamins will work as long as ten have not been used or if your EVs are within 10 points of their max.
|
Your post is a bit vague. I know that 255 is the max, but both extensive online searching and personal testing have shown that regardless of whether the EVs are from vitamins or not, vitamins cannot be used on a stat with 100+ EVs. I'm just wondering if that also applies to 90+ EVs since the vitamin would either not give 10 EVs or would raise the stat to over 100 EVs. Are you saying that vitamins won't work from 90 to 100 EVs?
|
Oh I thought it would still work. But if you've done extensive online researching and personal testing I would just go with what they say.
Quote:
|
Just about any OU pokemon with priority or that's fast with scarf I guess...Scizor, Lucario, etc...
|
If you want a good revenge killer, you will need to actually think about which will work the best. It depends on your team and how the revenge killer will work.
Some good revenge killers: Hitmontop Flygon Scizor Dugtrio (and there are more) |
RE: EV training
I've never EV trained before, but have intend to for my black and white versions. I've read the serebii guide, but had a few questions:
Anis |
Not quite.
The maximum EV your pokemon can get is 255 in each stat, and 510 EVs altogether. Since 4 EVs = 1 stat point, you should only get max 252 EVs in a stat. Any more will just go to waste. Consider what EV spread you want first, then decide what and how many to fight. If you want 252 speed EVs, fight 252 Zubat or Pidgey. If you want 252 Special Defense EVs, fight 126 Tentacruel or 252 Tentacool. This is assuming you don't have Pokerus or power items. |
what is a good moveset for my shiny Dragonite
I was very lucky when I was playing pokemon diamond and was able to catch an Adamant Nature Shiny Dratini first shot I have currently got him at level 100 and have EV trained him HP6,Atk252,Spe252 however I'm still looking for a good moveset i currently have
Outrage Dragon Dance Earthquake Fire Punch this for gen IV but i will be sending him to Gen V soon so any advice is welcome |
Quote:
Thanks again, Anis |
Quote:
And for the last question, yes. It doesn't matter what you defeat, if they give the same EVs it has the same effect. |
Haven't battled competitively in almost a year, and now that Black and White are out, I want to maybe start again. So I was just wondering if this is any good:
Chandelure @Life Orb Modest Flame Body 252SpAtk/252Speed/4HP - Shadow Ball - Energy Ball - Flamethrower - Calm Mind Shadow Ball and Flamethrower for STAB, Energy Ball for Water types, Calm Mind to further increase SpAtk, and Life Orb does that too. Yeah, I know this probably sucks :\ |
You are on the right track, however unless you plan to use it in a Trick Room team, I'd say to not use a +spa nature, but rather a +spe nature since Chandelure really needs all the speed it can get.
As far as coverage goes, it doesn't necessarily have to go much further than its stabs. A SubSplit set is one of the best things that it can do imo, and while it is not as fast as Gengar, you'll notice that a LO Fire Blast will most likely wreck anything that doesn't resist it (more so than with Gengar), and you'll easily be able to kill Blissey thanks to Sub and Pain Split etc. Also Flash Fire is afaik the superior ability, so you should probably use that :x Shanderra @ Life Orb Trait: Flash Fire 4 Def / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature - Substitute - Pain Split - Shadow Ball - Fire Blast |
I just had a few more questions:
Say I fought 252 Zubats/123 Tentacruels and my Snivy reached Lv 32, does that mean that battling Zubats/Tentacruels after this level is useless? Thanks a lot for your help, Anis |
You still have 12 EVs spare. Anyhoo, you can keep training your pokemon in EVs until it's got the maximum amount of EVs or until it's level 100. It doesn't matter what level they are, as long as they can continue to gain experience.
Side note: A level 100 pokemon can still gain EVs if it doesn't have any. The problem is, it can only gain EVs through vitamins. |
Hello guys, im new around these forums and i was wondering if you could give me hand in which EV spread would be better for a rayquaza.... My rayquaza is a shiny and it has really crappy stats, though, i would like to be able to use it in competitive play with my friends( not out there in the big leagues of PBR i know i would get crushed xD) It's stats are:
HP 31 Atk 29 Def 3 SPatk 11 SPdef 11 Spd 3 Nature: Mild So as you may notice it isnt anything close to good lol, i've checked the smogon builds but given that this rayquaza has a really poor speed IV and an spatk boosting nature i dont have a clue on what EV spread would make it at least sighly decent in competitive play... Hope you can help me out with this.. and thanks in advance =). |

Finally, I'm creating a a black and white team and wanted some advice from you experts (apologies if I'm on the incorrect discussion thread for this). So far in my team of six EV'd Reshiram (Sp Atk & Spd) and EV'd Zekrom (Atk & Spd) are pretty much secured on the team, but I wanted to get a good balance of types and stats. Thanks a lot for your time, Anis |
@ Diakuren:
I would probably say that a Swords Dance Rayquaza would be the way to go, since Dragon Dance relies far more on its speed than a SD set does (SD uses Extremespeed as its main way of damaging stuff that would outspeed it) Rayquaza @ Life Orb EVs: 252 Attack/ 252 speed / 4 Defense - Swords Dance - Extremespeed - Dragon Claw - Earthquake/Overheat SD + ES kills stuff that's faster than you, Dragon Claw is there for a semi-mandatory stab (Outrage would make Rayquaza much easier to revenge kill due to the fact that it would lock it in the move, preventing you from using Extremespeed), and Earthquake damages Steels in general, while Overheat might be used over it to kill Scizor, Forretress, and Skarmory. @Anis: After you've reached 510 EVs (In your case by smacking around Zubats, Chanseys and Testacools), you have reached your limit and will not gain any EVs from fighting other pokemon, unless you remove some of them by feeding them EV-reducing berries. You do not have to fight 252 Zubats in a row to get 252 EVs in Speed, they add up over time. IVs = Individual values that range from 31 to 0, and determine a pokemons stats when hatched/caught. Generally speaking, a pokemon with a 0 IV in speed will (at lvl 100) have 31 points less in speed than a pokemon with a 31 IV in speed, hence, it is important to make sure that your pokemon have at least decent IVs before you start to EV train them, in order to reach their fullest potential. You can determine the IVs of a pokemon by using an Action Replay device, using various IV calculators on the web, or simply by having an IV battle (at least in Gen 4 games). If you are trying to determine the IVs of a pokemon, make sure to record how many EV it has gained, as if you lose track it will be hard/impossible to make sure what the IVs really are. ALSO, your name creeps me out. |
I was just wondering if these would be good sets for a Scolipede.
Offensive 255atk/ 100def/ 100Sp. Atk/ 55spd Megahorn Toxic Venoshock Rock Slide/Earthquake Megahorn for Stab, Toxic to boost Venoshock's power, Rock Slide for Coverage against Fire and Flying, Earthquake against Rock or whatever else weak to it. Sp. Atk EVs help with Venoshock. Kind of a Tank I suppose. Defensive 225def/ 200sp. atk/ 55spd Toxic Venoshock Rest Protect I'm not too sure about this one. It's kind of a basic stall set. Sp. Atk for powering up Venoshock. |
Rate my dragonite
Nature is adamant at level 77
Move sets: fly, thunderbolt, aqua tail and outrage stats: Hp: 251, Attack 279, Defense 156, Sp. Atk 175 Sp def 169 Speed 147. |
I'm not entirely sure of this, and I'd wait for some verification (as I can't find any currently online), but I had been told Venoshock only doubles in power when a pokemon is specifically "poisoned" and not "toxic-ed", seeing as how they're two different status conditions (i.e. Toxic increases in damage the more a pokemon stays in). Anyway, here's an offensive set suggestion:
http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/bw/545.png Scolipede@Focus Sash/Life Orb Jolly Nature [+Spe; -SpA] Ability: Swarm EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe - Protect / Swords Dance - Megahorn / X-Scissor / Poison Jab - Rock Slide - Earthquake Quite honestly, poison doesn't hit enough stuff to actually be a good attacking type, so it's not entirely suggested that you run a poison type attack. Try this set out instead. Toxic + Venoshock seems like a good idea, but there's a few hinderances to pulling it off with Scolipede, one being what I mentioned at the beginning of this post. If it's true that only the regualar "posion" status affects the base power, it loses any point it has. Also, running Toxic on him isn't the best idea as his 60/89/69 defenses are kind of shaky making the setup turn quite difficult despite his nice speed and focus sash (as the sash could easily be broken by entry hazards and the all-too-common sandstorm). That also brings me to the my next point. I highly suggest not running a defensive Scolipede due to his poor HP and SpD, and mediocre Def. Hope this was helpful. :] |
Quote:
Consider Fire Punch as well. Fire Punch can hit Ice Types that Dragonite is weak to as well as Steel Types that resist Outrage and Fly. |

I'd Like to request a Moveset/ev spread for an Amoonguss.
I'd really appreciate it. :) |
Quote:
252 HP / 192 Def / 56 Sp.Def / 8 Speed Calm Nature Trait : Regeneration (DW only otherwise use Effect Spore) - Spore - Giga Drain - Stun Spore - Clear Smog I find this works best. Evs maximize defenses and outspeeds min Slowbro, Reuniclus and Cofagrigus which can be useful to Clear Smog away their Calm Minds after Sporing them. Also can Clear Smog other slot stat uppers and anything non steel which is awesome. Stun Spore and Spore cripple near anything and Giga Drain is for STAB. |
Quote:
Im also having trouble with Basculin. He's already pretty fast, so I really dont know where to start with his EV distribution.... |
Well you might as well run 252 Attack | 252 Speed | 4 HP if you really want to use him.

IV breeding is just breeding constantly and checking a pokemon's IVs with (usually) an action replay. The other method was to do an "IV Check Battle" as Wifi battles would scale your pokemon to level 100. This is no longer the case for B&W as they removed the level 100 possibility, and level 50 battles are less reliable (but probably your only method of checking other than AR). The way to check IVs with these battles was by entering stats into an IV calculator (one can be found on serebii.net). RNG is Random Number Generation, described here. However this link is out of date and only works for DPPt I believe. It still explains what RNG is though. |
Could You Guys Possibly reccomend Pokemon and Moves?

3 man Team Rating please?
ok so heres how I plan to train my pokemon,

Elcectabuz Naughty nature attack 252 defense 252 health 6 Moves: Earth Quake Thunder bolt cross shop thunder punch Life orb Starmie Timid 252 SPA 252 SP.D 6 health Moves: Surf Thunder bolt Psychic light screen Items light ball I also kind of wanted to make a six man team with these in it but I just can't decide, also what good Pokemon would fit into these teams? |
I want to start up a rain dance team consisting of ONLY 5th gen pokemon. I had a nice mixed team of the 4th gen and drizzle toad as my open but sadly I'm being forced to go only 5th gen entirely.
I have no idea where to start. I'm not asking to have an entire team built for me, but I just don't know how to get my feet off the ground in doing so. I usually take other people's teams, tear them down, and swap in my own pokemon or movesets but the problem now is that I don't know the pokemon or even have teams to start messing with. |

EVs are awarded to a stat that the opponent pokemon corresponds to. For your Zubat example, I'm fairly certain he gives 1 EV point to speed. However, the issue that I'm telling you about is that Your Samurott has done so much battling (supposedly) while traveling through Unova, that it's probably reached the max amount of EVs it can take in, and thos 510 EVs that he has are probably a mess of all 6 of the stats. So you won't be able to get 252 in speed, as he's probably maxed out at the 510 EVs, where some of those points you want in Speed have now moved to, say, Defense or something.
As for natures, there are multiple ways to check. You can go to your pokemon's info in game, see what nature it is in the first page, and search it up on just about any pokemon information site. A new feature that was introduced in HG/SS however is that if you look at your pokemon's stats on the second page of their summary, the stat that is getting a bonus is red, while the stat that is hindered appears blue. This is useful if you're unfamiliar with what specific natures do. (i.e. Jolly raises speed, but hinders special attack, good for a physical sweeper). |
Hey guys. I am looking for a set for http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/628.png (Braviary), however, not sure what to do with it. |
Quote:
Jolly Nature 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 6 Def Trait : Encourage - Hone Claws / Bulk Up - Crush Claw - SuperPower - Brave Bird / Rock Slide / Shadow Claw Otherwise its pretty much an inferior Staraptor. |
what role does an Adamant victini fit? I know that adamant increses Attack and decreases SP. Attack, so my first guess would be physical sweeper. it also says "hates to lose", so it gets an attack bonus.
as far as i've figured, the most damaging move it can learn that is physical and provides STAB bonus is Flare Blitz. However, I am not sure if it is worth the recoil damage. so I really don't want to mess this one up... how should I build it? (haven't touched it yet, refuse to mess up the EV training on it as well :P) |

Thanks a lot, Anis |
I'm not entirely sure what you mean still about the EV training. :x Sure, you don't have to fight 252 Zubat in a row, but you can't fight other pokemon unless they give you speed or another stat you want to EV in. Meaning, if you fight a pokemon that gives you a defense or something that you don't want, you'll be messing up your EVs unless you remove those defense EVs with one of those berries. Sorry if I'm not answering your question still, but I'm not entirely sure what you mean. Everything that you need to know about EV training was explained in my last post. Save some specific info like the fact that you have to manually count the EVs you invest as there's no way of checking ingame. However, I'll at least give you some sets for the pokemon you requested if this doesn't answer your question (sorry, I'm just not competent at explaining EV training. xD).

Hydreigon
Dark Pulse Flamethrower ??? Draco Meteor??? pls help plus how do i get ferrothorn with spikes and stealth rocks |
Don't use both dragon pulse and draco meteor..Keep only 1..Apart from these..You can teach him U-Turn.It will be pretty useful on hydreigon
iirc,ferrothorn can learn spikes and stealth rock by breeding with a dwebble/Crustle. |
Dump Dragon pulse and use either u-turn or the better move surf

EV HELP WITH MY GIGALITH
I am almost entirely sure I have invested my ev's in the correct stats but would be eternally grateful for some confirmation with my gigalith, who was ev trained primarily as a roggenrola and boldore.

Please do not send me links for stat calculators or EV, DV, IV (or any other two letter acronym) guides, and thank you again for helping !!! |
Quote:
I'm sorry but speed is the last thing you want to invest in. It's base speed is abysmal, there is no reason to give it any attention in that stat. The best thing to do is invest heavily in Def, so he can be a Physical wall. Do you need a moveset to go along side him?? (Will go ahead and post one) Gigalith Adamant natured 252 Att / 252 Def / 4 HP Ability : Sturdy Item: Custap Berry - Stealth Rock - Stone Edge - Explosion - Earthquake This moveset is still viable if he is already EV'd trained like you say. Just stealth rock first turn, and if Sturdy activates, Custap berry gives you priority so you can either explode or Stone Edge/Earthquake whatever stands in your way~ |
thank you for the opinion and i do understand what youre saying, but is there any way any of you could figure out my original questionwas; were all of these evs (maxed atk and spd) invested correctly in the okemon based on the information provided?
Thanks for your time and help either way i rly appreciate it |
Explosion sucks without max attack and adamant, especially this gen. Just go max att and hp @ Adamant.

Quote:
You can EV train from whichever way you wish. I personally enjoy training from an egg (and as the pokemon is level 1 upon hatching, the only method of EV training I can think of before it can start doing battles itself is through medicines and EXP. Share). Getting a good nature on your pokemon can be done in multiple ways. For one, a pokemon with they ability "Synchronize" can increase the chances of encountering a wild pokemon with the same nature as your Synchronize pokemon (or Sync for short). Say you have a Munna with Timid nature, if you search for wild pokemon with Munna as your leading pokemon, Timid nature pokemon will appear more frequently than they would normally. Or you could just keep trying to catch pokemon until you find the nature you want. Same goes for breeding. There's a method of increasing nature chances with an Everstone, but I forget which parent needs to hold it. I believe the female must have the desired nature and be holding an Everstone to increase the chances (don't quote me on that however). Abilities are the same deal, minus the Sync and Everstone methods. Just keep trying until you get what you want. Eggs moves are a bit different. Try searching a pokemon on Serebii, and then scrolling down to the section where it says "Egg Moves". Next to each move should be a "details" section which will tell you which parent the pokemon would need to be bred with to produce a baby with that egg move. |

Volcarona @ Life Orb / Leftovers Trait: Flame Body EVs: 6 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe or 252 HP / 96 Def / 160 Spe Timid Nature (+Spd, - Atk) - Quiver Dance - Flame Dance / Fire Blast - Bug Buzz - Hidden Power [Rock/Ground] / Morning Sun Quote:
You're on the right track, however the moveset needs to be Scrafty @ Leftovers / Life Orb Trait: Moxie EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Dragon Dance - Hi Jump Kick / Drain Punch - Crunch - Ice Punch / Taunt |
Flamethrower is another option for Volcarona. But what is the percentage rating for fiery dance to activate its secondary effect?
