im not sure who i should get cause i was thinking of using pikachu as my signature pokemon, i know its over used, but know im thinking, hes a little to weak, so help please!

I'd go with either Jolteon or Ampharos.

jth1ogan3 July 5th, 2010 6:31 PM

I also would go with either Jolteon or Ampharos because they are strong

Storm_has_formed July 5th, 2010 6:37 PM

Lanturn, because the dual-typing with water

If Pikachu is a little weak, why not go with Raichu?

As stated before, Ampharos and Joteon are ideal choices as well (but Raichu is cuter <3).

I agree with either Jolteon or Ampharos. Depends on how your team is built. Take a look at these pages:

Ampharos beats the chu's any day. My Ampharos (Modest) has beaten 4 gyms singlehandedly. I'd highly recommend Ampharos, or at least Jolteon.

Although IMO, the chu's are cuter. :3

My choice would be Ampharos even though it's quite slow for an electric type. But it has the highest Sp.Attack and high defences.

Arma July 6th, 2010 1:56 AM

I'd say Lanturn, it has a great typing plus it can learn a lot of different and powerful moves like Thunderbolt, Surf & Ice Beam Which provide good type coverage.

Taichi July 6th, 2010 2:03 AM

All the cool kids use Ampharos (and Typhlosion).

solastalgia July 6th, 2010 2:13 AM

I agree on Ampharos, he's a really useful member of my team. I kinda wish I trained a Jolteon, though. *shrug* They're both great.

Garrabutártulo July 6th, 2010 3:41 AM

Ampharos can learn "heal bell" in HG and SS. Did anyone notice that?
It's great!

glaceongurl July 6th, 2010 3:45 AM

ampharos is really strong and really awesome . flaafy too.

Charizard★ July 6th, 2010 6:43 AM

Jolteon is pretty good, I have it on some of my teams.

Roughsponge July 6th, 2010 7:18 AM

I know loads of others have said it but I think Ampharos for two reasons:
A - It's attacks are quite good. Eg. Signal beam
B - Itself and it's evolutions before it are based off sheep, c'mon thats just cool.

Plus, I've used him a few times before and he is by far the funnest electric type pokemon I've used, I dont know why though. :)

HugSomebody July 6th, 2010 9:23 AM

I have a Jolteon on my HG team. His speed stat is off the chart as well as his special attack; the only thing I didn't like about my Jolteon was his poor learned-moves. TM's will save your life if you go with Jolteon.

Numbers July 6th, 2010 9:31 AM

I mostly always get Ampharos when I start Heart Gold over. Just because you can get Mareep before the first Gym and Ampharos is pretty strong.

StratusJm July 6th, 2010 9:32 AM

ya i love jolteon his thunderbolt destroys everything haha

Toa Hyro July 6th, 2010 9:37 AM

I think Ampharos because of its awesome variety of attack and special attaks with high special which i always use in my heartgold.

NickofTime July 6th, 2010 9:41 AM

In reality there are numerous electric type pokemon in heart gold so it only really matters on you preferance.

Agent Clank July 6th, 2010 10:41 AM

I would go with Ampharos,cause he has good attacks and he is cool.

I couldn't have said it any better myself. With that, please use the HG/SS Help Thread if you have any more questions.
