Swanna # Surf / Dive / Fly Panpour # Surf / Cut Scrafty # Strength / Dig Ferrothorn # Flash I don't have a Waterfall user yet. Since Dig / Flash are (infinite use) TMs, this Generation effectively ruled them out as necessary at all -___- You can just swap it in and out at your will. Escape Rope? Psh. |
Ducklett for surf, dive and fly.
Samurott for waterfall, surf and cut (I also have false swipe on him). My Gigalith knows strength as well, but I don't consider it as a HM slave. I don't know what Pokémon I used the other HMs on... I haven't really found a "perfect" HM slave yet, I'll keep looking. Or I might just get Bidoof/Bibarel. The thing I really miss is a good HM slave for fly. When I was looking for one in HG/SS I found out that Aerodactyl probably was the best one but still not that good. Btw, that link, I got comic based on it. http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/7793/1306458786266.png It makes my eyes so tearful. ;_; |
I put Surf, Dive and Waterfall on Samurott (I removed both later on), Fly on Archeops, Cut on Pansear and Strength on Sawk and Excadrill.
|
I used one of the monkey Pokemon or a spare Herdier generally, although a Biberal and Golduck in post-E4 sure helped with exploring all those rivers/waterfalls/underwater areas. I kept Fly on my Archeops.
|
Hmmmmmmm.
Well! I remember using Zekrom post-elite four as my Fly slave, but since then that's kinda changed and any flying Pokemon is basically my Fly slave now. Not sure what I used before Zekrom, though... :( I definitely know Samurott was used for Surf before the elite four, while for post game, I'm not really sure, I think I used whatever I came across. And Emboar had Strength, iirc. And Pansage = obv Cut slave. In fact, I can barely remember my team post-elite four. XD But still, that story made me feel bad! ;__; |
I have a remoraid with waterfall dive surf that I pull out when ever I need him, and I have a makuhita with strength, and an oddish with cut, since they're not really used that often.
I do really enjoy that HM's aren't required to get around as much as before, so I haven't really used the HM slaves that much (hoenn basically said you MUST have peliper in your team for surf and fly). |
Samurott: Surf, Waterfall(deleted)
Stoutland: Strength, Surf Unfezant: Fly Liepard: Cut I kept this up until I beat the Elite Four and got a better team. I didn't use HM moves often after that (except Surf and Fly, obviously:P). Personally I think those two are the only really useful moves for battling. The others are rarely all that effective. |
I put my HMs on anyone who can use them/I don't care about. HM slaves FTW. But it's such a pain to withdraw them if I don't have space. e 3e
|
Pretty much anyone was an HM slave if needed up until I got to the Elite four. Even used Emboar for Strength.
|
As of right now I have Surf on my Samurott, Strength on my Sawk and my Golurk knows Fly. Of course, my Golurk will always know Fly. Cruising across the skies in the arms of a robot? How awesome is that?! :)
|
It's always the Bibarel + Tropius combo for me. Before I got them, though, I got away with Samurott, Watchog and Swoobat. They have all HMs and Flash!
|
Well I haven't completed the game as of yet so haven't really thought out my HMs.
Swoobat has fly. As for the rest of my team, I don't know what I will do, I probably will pick up a few HM slaves, although switching about will be a pain, although as someone else as said, I've noticed you don't really need to use HMs as much to get around in Unova (luckily!) |
I generally don't have specific HM slaves. I just teach them to whoever can learn them in my main party, and then delete the moves when I no longer need them, unless they're already good battle moves like Surf on Sp. Attackers, and Waterfall and Fly on Physical Attackers. Strength is also decent, and I keep it in my team until well into the post-game where I no longer need it, at which point I replace it with something better.
|
Well, in my first run I used these:
HM01 Cut - unused / Simisear (not a team-member beyond Castelia City) HM02 Fly - Braviary (only post-E4, as I couldn't find one on GTS to breed from until then). HM03 Surf - Samurott HM04 Strength - Druddigon HM05 Waterfall - Buizel HM06 Dive - Buizel Buizel was a HM Slave. Fly was deleted afterwards, because I wanted Brave Bird. On my second run: HM01 Cut - Simisage (Deleted just before E4) HM02 Fly - Unfezant HM03 Surf - Frillish HM04 Strength - Krookodile HM05 Waterfall - none, never got that far. HM06 Dive - as above. |
HM01 Cut - I actually don't remember, pretty sure it was on my monkey though.
HM02 Fly - It was on some random Pidove until I caught Resharim. Best use of a legendary ever, amirite? HM03 Surf - Samurott. I always choose the water starter, so it always winds up being an HM Slave. ;_; HM04 Strength - Stoutland because it isn't too bad of a move to be on my main team. HM05 Waterfall - Samurott. HM06 Dive - Samurott. Also, that story is why I try not to use HM Slaves. >_>; [/softie] |
lol, I don't see why you would need HM slaves on this region.
Cut - Useless once you find the items behind the trees Fly - Keep Strength - Useless once you've scoured the Abyssal Ruins and pushed all the boulders into holes Dive - Useless once you've scoured the Abyssal Ruins Waterfall - Useless after you've gotten Landorus at the Shrine Surf - Keep Umm yeah. |
well.... for this gen I had my shiny birael transfer from my hg to white. I haven't use any hm slave yet except for strength birael. Other than that I use surf on samurott. :D
|
----------Postgame-----------
Unfezant: Fly Shiny Basculin: Surf & Dive Krookodile: Strength & Cut Serperior: Flash -----------Ooold------------ Stoutland: Surf & Strength (After I replaced Stoutland with Cobalion for Strength and my Shiny Basculin for surf) Unfezant: Still Fly Serperior (sometimes) haves Flash |
golduck works well for several hms in black
|
I still don't understand why people use HM Slaves, after all that's transpired in B/W.
Have you not learned from Team Plasma at all? |
Ducklet/ Swanna was my main HM slave but she was also a good pokemon she had brave bird, surf, dive, and fly but i used her alot in the elite 4 especially on the fighting one.
|
Dragonite- Fly, Surf, Waterfall, and Dive
Tropius- Cut Yeah, that's it. |
I really dont have an HM slave (even when I was playing through the game). My starter had Surf and my Unfezant had Fly. But when I started bring in Pokemon, my Bibarel was my HM slave yet again (even though getting all of those moves deleted was a pain)
:t354:TG |
That story made me sad ;;
Anyways, two of my main Pokemon actually had HMs in my imported Black. Stoutland had Strength and Swanna had Surf and Fly. Since Swanna had the two primary moves needed, I didn't really need to carry around a slave. However, when I got to my English Black and White, none of my Pokemon were taught HMs. As a result, I captured Ducklett in both (named Sauce in Black and Qwerty in White), and they both learned Surf and Fly. I also found that Druddigon was useful as a slave as it could learn Strength, Cut, and Surf. However, for Waterfall/Dive/Surf I think I used Frillish? At least in White I did. |
Archeops got saddled with Fly. Samurott got Earthquake. I think I just gave Cut to Pansear and dragged it out of the box as necessary. And since the TM's can be used repeatedly, one of Samurott's moveslots alternated between Waterfall, Strength, and False Swipe.
I never got around to using Dive, lol |
