Looking for suggestions and improvements to this rain team. Really appreciate it :)
Hi guys, I've put together a rain team and am looking for any suggestions. Different pokemon, different abilities, different items... Anything and everything I am desperate to get this right
Here's my team so far, Trying to build a team that is ridiculously strong in the 3on3 rated battles. Ferrothorn - Nature: + Def, -Speed EVs: 252 HP / 48 Def / 208 SDef Iron barbs Rocky Helmet Power whip Leech seed Thunder wave Gyro ball Rotom-W Nature: +Sp.attack, -Attack, EVS: 252 SpA/ 4HP / 252 Speed Levitate Choice Speccs Thunder wave Hydro pump Thunderbolt Volt Switch Cloyster Nature: +Attack, -SpA, EVS: 252 Attack/ 4HP / 252 Speed Skill link Focus sash Rock blast Icicle spear Shell smash Razor shell Gyarados w/ mega stone Nature: +Attack, -SpA, EVS: 252 Attack/ 4HP / 252 Speed Intimidate Waterfall Dragon dance Ice fang Earthquake Politoed Nature: +Sp.attack, -Attack, EVS: 252 SpA/ 4HP / 252 Speed Damp rock Drizzle Surf Hypnosis Focus blast Ice beam Lapras. Nature: +Sp.def, -Attack, EVS: 248 Hp/ 8SpA / 252 SpD Leftovers Hydration Surf Ice beam Thunder Rest A little unsure of lapras. Thanks everyone, really appreciate it! |
could it be worth dropping Lapras for one of the Water based Multi-types like Empoleon, Poliwrath, Greninja, or the like? Would allow more types of move to be thrown in and give you advantage in more places. Perhaps even something like an Aira Sphere/Dragon Pulse Blastoise could be a good bet? Throw in Rain Dance and Hydro Pump.and it should fit nicely. Hold item could be many things, perhaps an Eject Button in case someone pulls electric or grass so you can switch to Mega Gyarados? Pr you could run a choice of two Megas?

What does SVP mean? I see a lot of passerby's saying it.

Liking the idea of scizor, would having three physical attackers not be overkill though? |

That's the short version. In our opinion, these kind of teams work best in 6v6 Singles. |
Hatching Eggs
Okayy , So I Sometimes Breed Pokemon & Yess , The Fastest Way Is By Having A Pokemon With Flame Body Ability . But If You Have Two Pokemon In Your Party With Flame Body Ability , Does The Pokemon Hatches Faster Or Is The Same Speed As Hatching It With One Pokemon With Flame Body ?
|
Its the same speed. Things like Flame Body or Magnet Pull dont stack.
|
in addition, you can't just have the pokemon in your party, it needs to be leading your party for Flame Body to actually count
|
Actually, you need to put your Pokemon with Flame Body (i.e. Talonflame) in the last slot of your party. Then, there are some ways to obtain Eggs faster, like obtaining the Oval Charm (you'll need to have seen, not obtainted, every single Kalos Pokemon as seen in the Kalos Pokedexes) and you can use Hatching O-Powers to hatch them faster in combination with a Flame Body Pokemon ;)

Oops, ah well, I always was in the understanding a Flame Body Pokemon had to be in your last slot, anyway, this has been cleared up now ;)
|
I always put my flame body pokemon first , but I forgot about the Hatching-O Power . Maybe I should use it .
~ Thanks (: |
Ok... What does RSVP mean?
And extra words so I can post. |
New to Pokemon-Few Questions
Hello everyone,
Pokemon X and Y are the first Pokemon games I've ever played. And actually my first real introduction to Pokemon period. I'm enjoying it immensely and have gotten very interested in all things Pokemon. The two things that have gotten me hooked the most are collecting as many kinds of Pokemon as I can, and breeding for shinies. As soon as I heard about shinies I started breeding right away. Once I got to the daycare all other gameplay just stopped. Recently though, a friend told me I should finish the game first so that I can get better quality Pokemon and learn how to breed for IVs and things like that so I don't end up with shiny Pokemon that aren't really very good. I decided that she had a good point, but at the same time I was a bit sad because I would have liked to breed a bunch of cook pokes and then play through the game with them. So then I started wondering... After completing the game can I breed all the Pokemon I want and then save them for the next gen? I know that you can transfer Pokemon from previous games into each new one, but will they still be shiny, and have all the same IV's and everything? I would think yes, but I don't want to waste my time so I thought I'd check. So for example, I would like to breed all the shinies I want and just leave them as level 1 and then transfer them into the next gen when it's released. I was also wondering if after completing the game I can still run around and explore and catch whatever Pokemon I want, or do I have to do all that before a certain point? And finally I was wondering if there was a good site to go to if I wanted to check what nature best suits each Pokemon and other things like that. I'm sorry about the long post, thanks for reading. |

If the hardware and software doesn't change too drastically, then yes- you'll be able to transfer you 'mons over to the next gen, retaining shiny, IVs, and everything else.
The post game is pretty much exclusively just catching and breeding, really- but that can be done at any time. Some things are only available once you beat the Elite Four, though. As for natures, movesets, abilities, etc. I tend to refer to this site. |
For an exclusive move, I'm actually surprised how no website has mvoesets for Pikachu/Raichu's Volt Tackle which I really want. The problem with Raichu I am finding is that it's so hard to get the moves you want that you REALLY need to know what you want before you start breeding because once you make a mistake you need to start all over again, and since you need the Destiny Knot for the IVs AND the Light Ball to GET Volt Tackle, you have no control over Nature so starting all over again is a HUGE deal.
I am considering keeping it a Pikachu just because light ball now apparently doubels both Att and SpAtt which makes it stronger than Raichu (however it's Defense are lower and it's speed is also slightly lower, so I'm not 100% sure on that decision yet) Anyway, the Pikachu/Raichu I am aiming for is the following: Nature: Hasty (lowest stat, so it's going to get 1HKO no matter what so there's no point in even trying to boost it) Evs: 252 Speed, 252 Att, 6SpAtt Ability: Lightning Rod Moves: Grass Knot Nuzzle (maybe Thunderwave, but even a tiny bit of damage in addition to paralyze is okay too) Wish Volt Tackle So paralyzing the opponent is the only chance it has to set up Wish and since it has Lightning Rod it obviously won't have Static so there's no other way Paralyze can happen. Now I chose Lighting Rod to boost it's SpAtt so it can power up Grass Knot as well as deal with any pokemon using electric type moves, however, I might possibly consider getting rid of Wish for Nasty Plot. This however brings me to the main problem, moves in this move set hinge on having been bred onto it, or a result of a pre evolution so if I make a mistake it's going to take weeks to re do it so I want to be absolutely sure of the moveset before I commit. I have even been to competitive sites like Smogon with no help (smogon: "Pikachu can utilize Nasty Plot to double its already gigantic Special Attack" really? It's SpAtt is only a base of 50 AND it's 5 points lower than it's Attack. I wouldn't call that "gigantic"!) No one seems to have move sets with Wish and/or Volt Tackle (even though they do have move sets with physical moves) they just have the generic special attacker moveset at best so I am really stumped with this one. EDIT: Also, I have 4 female Pichus with Wish and Volt Tackle to anyone who wants them by the way! (I only need one of the 5 I just bred) they all have 3 IVs |

And Pokemon is also good for post-game stuff. This time around there isn't as much to do, but yes, after completing the main storyline you can still run around catching and breeding Pokemon, and doing whatever you might have missed out on. In fact, that's probably the best time to do all of that stuff. Quote:
Bulbapedia is best for finding out raw information about Pokemon, such as the moves they can learn, their stats, how they evolve, etc. It's essentially Wikipedia for Pokemon. Serebii is best for finding out Pokemon news, and they also have a number of useful articles and applications (such as an IV calculator and an explanation of how Hidden Power works). Serebii also has Bulbapedia-style information, and can be useful if you can't find the thing you're looking for on Bulbapedia, but generally I'd say Bulbapedia is better for that. Smogon is best for competitive battling tips. They have a page for each Pokemon explaining the best moves to teach it, the best Nature to give it, and so on. For example, here is the one for Dragonite. They're still working on updating everything for X and Y, but most of the strategies listed are still applicable. And of course, you can always ask here! :) |
