Poliwrath. Best cb escavalier check and cb entei check, as well as being able to check a lot of other things(absol, aggron, offensive cryogonal etc), but it cannot check moltres(number one used fire type iirc) because of stab airslash/hurricane. If you're going to use Poliwrath as your water type "mixed wall", your team is going to have a lot of trouble against the ever so popular moltres.

Can a sub par speed IV be made up? Like being able to compensate for a sub par IV. I have this Deino thats speed IV is 15 but its IV on HP is 31 and Sp. Atk is 26( which isnt the greatest I know).

Is it better to have a Zebstrika as a lonely nature or a Jolly nature also what move set would be best for it?

Quote:
If you have Sap Sipper, running a physical attacking set would be somewhat viable, but a special attacker set would still be the superior choice. Zebstrika @Choice Scarf Sap Sipper/Lightningrod ability 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Modest nature ~ Thunderbolt ~ Overheat ~ Volt Switch ~ Hidden Power Ice/Grass or Zebstrika @Life Orb Sap Sipper/Lightningrod ability 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid/Modest nature ~ Thunderbolt ~ Overheat ~ Hidden Power Ice/Grass ~ Protect/Volt Switch (this is more of a VGC set though) |

Is there a good physical move set because I have enough Specials |

Its not a mix, but milotic is a wonderful wall. |
I need help understanding the roles of weather starters. I want to breed all four weather starters. My main issue is dealing with Speed. It is my understanding that the slower Pokemon gets the lasting weather effect. Now does this mean you want a low Speed IV? A Speed hindering nature?
I fully intend on breeding Max IV in everything but Speed. So what I need to know is the desired Speed IV, nature and any egg moves for these Pokemon. Also a desired Hidden Power unless this changes from person to person. Abomasnow Ninetails Politoad Tyranitar I guess if you have the info for Hippowdon I can breed those later. |

Politoed's viable HP type is Grass. It's rather slow anyway, so there's no need for max Speed IVs here, unless you're going for Choice Scarf. The best thing to do when you're up against Sand or Hail teams is not to set Politoed as your lead when the match starts, but to only bring it in when necessary. Tyranitar has no reason to use Hidden Power, as its movepool is very wide. It's rather slow anyway, so it can use a Sassy nature alongside Fire Blast. HP Fire is the best option for Abomasnow. Regarding the IVs, see Politoed. |
Well the reason I asked is because I like perfection. Basically from what you've said none of their speed IV matter? So I can have 0 or 31?

I do not understand tiers.
So a NU team means that you can only use NU pokemon? Who is there to stop me from putting a NU and a OU together? |

I don't even know what that is. I just battle via friend code or on random matchup

Help with Vaporeon
This is a simple question. I have this Vaporeon and I have trained it to level 100; I just wanted to know how it will fare in the metagame. I was redirected from the Quick Question thread to here so mods...don't delete this.
Vaporeon Bold (Often dozes off) @ leftovers HP: 464 AtK: 123 Def: 221 SP ATK: 229 SP Def: 220 Speed: 168 Surf, Toxic, Acid Armour, Protect Should I rebreed or this a good Vaporeon? |
More than stats as global, EVs and preferably IVs would help in deciding.
Bold is a good nature so in that field it's pretty good. |

I'm thinking of adding in a Blissey as a special wall, and Scizor as a baton passer. Any suggestions (other pokemon to use, builds, etc)? |
