Hey guys, I was wondering if you could help me with the last addition to my mostly mono-ice hail and trick room team for NU. My lead is Snover, Beheeyem for trick room and fighting type counter, Beartic for life orb attacker, Walrein for my wall (thick fat turns it into a reliable special wall as well), Armaldo for rapid spin and stealth rock support, and the last slot is what I'm stuck on. I don't know whether to use Lapras for curse, thunderbolt, blizzard, and Zenheadbutt, a Choice Banded Delibird to take advantage of Ariel ace and the hustle ability, or a Glaceon with choice specs and hidden power electric to cover water types. Remember, this is a combination of Hailstorm and Trick Room, so all of these Pokemon will be as slow as possible. As of now I'm leaning towards Delibird because with its STAB, +50% damage boost, a x2 attack bringing it to over 450, Ariel ace's base power climes to over 100, and Ariel ace never missing, it sounds like it might be fun to use and catch a lot of people off guard.

If I switch in espeon while a whimsicott uses encore, thanks to magic bounce does he end up encoring himself into using encore? Cuz that would be awesome =p

Please help. 10 questions! Is Blissey generally a useable Pokemon?
1. Is Blissey a good Pokemon to use in OU?
2. Is she a good user of Counter? 3. Isn't Defense Curl,Softboiled,Seismic Toss and Refresh a good idea on her? I mean she can fix her low Def issue and Refresh is to heal status without needing to switch. Those following aren't questions concerning competitive battling but well, let me ask them since I have already opened up the topic :) Thank you good mods. 4. Is she difficult to find in Safari Zone and capture? 5. Did you know that she can take physical hits just like Aipom and Mr.Mime, a bit worse(almost exactly the same though) than Raichu,Roserade and even better than Alakazam? 6. Wouldn't Blissey be a great Pokemon id they gave her at least 30 base Def? 7. Why does she have such low Def ? I am not talking about the game as everything is about balance. A pink monster with vast HP and both defenses looking up the sky would be overpowered. I am talking about real life. Say she existed. What would make her have such little Def yet so much HP? 8. Wouldn't you yet prefer Blissey with these stats: 255 HP 10 Att 30 Def 10 Sp.Att 10 Sp I would really prefer that. Blissey would be much more sturdy physically and besides her speed and sp.att are already useless. 9. Is Blissey good in-game apart from healing Pokemon outside of battle? Does Alomomola do the same thing outside of battle(healing teammates)? 10. Why does Blissey's TGC card claim only 120-130 HP while Wailord's 200? Blissey has the highest HP. Also, Drifblim and Wigglytuff's cards claim a bigger HP than Alomomola's while Alomomola has more HP than them. I mean, in the games Blissey has the most HP yet in the card games she has way less than wailord,alomomola,wigglytuff etc |

Good answer buddy! I didn't know she could take hits like Spiritomb! I would never imagine that actually as Spiritomb is considerably durable. Anyway, seems that she has potential.
But still, without any EVs she can take a physical brawl just like Aipom and Mr.Mime and better than Alakazam. As for the moveset I suggested, it was actually for my 'fun' team. You know, in these teams you choose Pokemon you like and make some crazy movesets. Just to have fun,not to win. Your movesets,although common, are indeed the best for Blissey. Won't you answer the rest of my questions stranger?! |

Couple questions:
1. Is Shuckle even midly competetive? I would assume it makes a good wall. 2. EV training is battling a pokemon against a wild pokemon whose dominant stat is the stat you want to increase, yes??? Or does the wild pokemon's stat have to be HIGHER than the pokemon you're EV training? |
Quote:
2. I'm not sure what you mean by that. Care to elaborate? |
Awww. Shuckle is awesome, though :/ lol.
I am not too farmiliar with EV training. I read a couple "essays" or "articles" on EV training, but the grammar and spelling were akin to a 5 year old with a typewriter, so I don't really trust the source. I'd love to learn more about it, as I rarely go halfway with things and I want to start breeding and training for "perfect pokemon". I guess my question is REALLY: "do you have a link to a valid source of information about EV training?" |

Soulsivler :( That IS gen four, right?
I have a window open, reading a breeding article, on Smogon right now. I'll peek around. Thanks! :) I'll also check out the links. |

Say pokemon A is faster than pokemon B. If pokemon B uses protect, and on the next turn pokemon A uses encore as pokemon B tries to use a different move, does it encore protect and change pokemon B's move to protect despite the fact that protect would go last? Or what would happen?

I was looking at the tiers for battles and noticed a column titled "BST."
What is this representing? |
Quote:

Hate to ask another question so soon, but: are HG/SS pokemon in the same tiers as S/G???
|
Quote:
Tiers for G/S are listed right here. |
Nope, GS and gen 4 are totally different metgames (understatement) and should be treated as such.

Rate meh team please!
I haven't acquired all of them, so I don't have the IVs.
Porygon-Z Dusknoir Meganium Wailord Altaria Flareon I didn't have room for a psychic, so just please give some CC. (constructive criticism) |
