[Official] Battle Frontier
I don't know if anyone has one yet, but making another one. This will be the official thread for the Battle Frontier in HG/SS. Talk about anything that is related to the Battle Frontier.
Also, I've noticed in the Battle Tower at least one trainer has a legendary if you do a tag battle with a bot. |
I got to the Tower Tycoon, and Factory Head, four times each, and I always lose...
|
I'm looking forward to finally playing the Battle Frontier, for some reason I have never got to a single one in any games.
|
No offense, but could the OP please use better grammar? Sorry, it's hard to understand.
I find one thing odd....how the trees are suddenly tropical, and the architecture (buildings) represents the Battle Zone, north of Sinnoh. They should've kept Johto trees, and buildings. Probably Olivine-style buildings, seeing as it's next to Olivine |
does anyone know how to battle a frontier brain at the battle tower? i've done 21 consecetive double battles. do i need to do single battle? please help!!

I wish that there were people actually willing to do Wi-fi tag battles.

I finally beat the Battle Frontier last week XD
I feel so proud :D |
Compared to D/P, the HG/SS/Pt AI is a lot smarter. Where most of the time you can make it through 21-35 battles with just one pokemon blitzing, the computer seems to know exactly what will screw you over much earlier on than before. I got beat at round 7 by a speedy Sleep Powdering Venomoth with Psychic. Not fun.

I got a 21 Win streak in the Battle Castle today, which was good, and lost to the Battle Factory head, which was lame. I'm also working on some new Pokemon to take for the Tower so I can get a better tag battle streak. I'm currently on 28. |

I do enjoy the frontier though, as I never bought Platinum. I like the Battle Factory, 'cause it's interesting battling with pokemon that, normally, I wouldn't use. |

that is so true also i was 1 battle away and a jumpluff beat my pokemon:( |
Beat Thorton a couple of weeks ago on the first try, thanks to a Kingdra I was lucky enough to pick up from the 17th or 18th battle. Haven't been focusing on the Frontier much though. Trying to fill up the Pokedex a bit more first.
How many battles does it take to reach the Hall's Brain anyway? |
Battle frontier makes me unhappy ;-; all the facility's make me mad!,
Battle Factory - Don't get me started!, I use it the most though it's fun x3 Battle Castle - I like this one I've already got Silver, onto Gold : ) Battle Hall - I think this is the one with the single pokemon and ranks... if so Dx,`Rampardos got owned by an Infernape Battle Arcade - Got my pokemon swapped with the Brain! Battle Tower - Deathly boring D; |

I have Silver on all the places except the Hall. I find that to be too easy, and I don't really want to go forth for Gold there unless I have some awesome Pokemon.
And iirc Hall is 50 Battles for Silver, and 170 for Gold. |
My favourite place in Battle Frontier is the hall. Don't know why, I just like battling there.

Best Battle Tower Teams?
One of the last trainer card-upgrading tasks I have yet to do is win 100 battles at the Battle Tower.
I admit I haven't spent a huge amount of time there, mostly because I consider it a huge grind...but I have been able to make it to the first match with Palmer...who then trashes me with his Milotic. I'm considering building a team that leads off with a high-speed attacker to inflict a status condition (poison, sleep, curse) followed by a high def. and sp. def. defender to absorb damage as the stat problem wears the opponent down. I thought I'd ask all of you what teams you've had good luck with. Any must-have items or moves? Thanks for any input! |
you might want to ask this in the help thread.
i find a lapras with perish song comes in handy though. |
DeeJay, I merged your Battle Tower Team question here seeing as this is the [Official] Battle Frontier thread.
Surprisingly enough, I have yet to really give the Johto Battle Frontier a go. Even though it's the same as that of DPPt's, I really haven't entered it much, I could say the least for the Battle Tower since I don't actually have a team to use. I will say though, you're going to have to use strategy to defeat Palmer as his Pokémon only get tougher the second time. |
im making a BT team, suggestions and help needed :) :
(is this the place to post this) Spiritomb @ Choice Scarf Pressure. [Nature here] Trick Grudge Dark Pulse Shadow Ball Trick to give opponent choice item, then grudge and faint so the opponent has no pp and has to struggle. Then my next Pokemon will take the stage. Scizor @ Leftovers Technician. Adamant. Agility Bullet Punch Bug Bite Aerial Ace/Swords Dance well, while the opponent struggle, speed up using agility and swords dance (if you have it), until your necessary, then go on a killing spree, leftovers restoring any damage struggle did. Aerodactyl @ Choice Band Pressure. Adamant Earthquake Rock Slide Crunch/Dragon Claw Iron Head in case scizor dies, aerodactyl comes in for a quick kill. |
@Hiiro: Sorry I started the whole separate thread. Wasn't sure if I should or shouldn't post in this one!
I am also thinking of training up a Spiritomb. A ghost-type with Curse is always one of my favorite moves...Has anyone had good luck with moves that badly poison opponents? I've noticed sleep-inducing moves work pretty well... |
So far I've beaten all of the facilities =) So I have all of the Silver ones.
Battle Arcade seems the easiest to me and i almost challenged the Brain again but I lost like around my 4th match. As for the rest well the Battle Tower is the most annoying. Battle Factory is okay and interesting. The one I find the hardest is the Battle Hall since you only stick with one type and have to beat all the rest. Battle Castle i just simply love it! XD |
I really, REALLY hope that if the Frontier exists in Black & White, they find a better way to save. Part of what makes the Tower and Hall such grinds is the excessive saving...
Oh, and BP need to be a bit easier to acquire! |
