what slaved pokemon do you use?
 
So, I have entered hall of fame, and before doing the delta episode I have decided to make an exploration journey to explore every corner of Hoenn region, catch every pokemon and get every single item out there.


But, certain moves are required of course, so let me slave few pokemon(harsh term though).


Those are my slaved pokemon, after level them up and teach the proper moves:

Wailord

Dive+Surf+Waterfall

Aggron
https://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/black-white/anim/normal/aggron.gif
Cut+Strength+Rock Smash
Thunder Wave(To capture pokemon)

Ninjask
https://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/black-white/anim/normal/ninjask.gif
Flash+Dig
False Swipe(To capture pokemon)

Unfezant
https://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/black-white/anim/normal/unfezant-f.gif
Fly
(yup there is soaring, but I still like to fly)


What do you think about this combination, any ideas or suggestion? what pokemon do you slave?

I used to use Marill and Zigzaggoon as HM Slaves. Marill learns almost all the HMs except Cut and Rock Climb (which is only a gen 4 thing) and Ziggy is a pretty decent HM slave for an early game mon.

As for your question, I'm not too much of a fan of using multiple slaves soooo your team isn't exactly my cup of tea.

i used a linoone and a wailord lol.

i'm gonna use all the pokes in my trade shop for sun and moon to fulfill my utility needs :D i've basically got every utility need covered :P

Hey, I did the same thing you did! I went through all the routes in Hoenn after I beat the Elite Four. However, I only used one Pokemon as a catching mon (I think it was Breloom, because it can learn False Swipe? I think?) and just taught the Pokemon I caught the HMs if I needed.

In general, I don't really use HM slaves. I don't like the idea of wasting a team slot.

multiple slaves is not a good choice yes, but since it is only for exploration, it is an opportunity to try different pokemon :)

slaves are not good in early game play, because you need every possible pokemon, so just sacrifice one move of one of the capable pokemon

I use Sharpedo for Surf/Dive/Waterfall and Linoone for Cut/Rock Smash/Strength

Hikamaru August 20th, 2016 11:04 AM

The only real HM Slave I seem to have in my game right now is a Linoone, who I mainly use for Cut purposes.

nosvee August 20th, 2016 9:08 PM

Sigilyph is my flyer, I have a spare Zangoose for catching, and Samurott is my water buddy (Dive, Surf, Waterfall). Those are really my main go-to's for now lol

Kikaito plush August 21st, 2016 2:00 AM

I used Swampert for Surf, Altria for Fly, zigzagoon for rock smash/cut and a peppler for waterfall.

Multiple moves per pokémon, I don't asume that you use them for battels?

yup, one of the common slaved {XD}

kingdenas August 22nd, 2016 3:17 AM

My HM slave is usually Linoone. But sometimes I need to use a Water-type Pokémon to Dive/Waterfall

I used to use my starter (Sceptile) for Cut/Strength, although I would delete those moves later when they're not longer needed because I'd hate to see HM moves on my starter.

Latios is for Surf.

That's all the relevant ones, really. All the other HMs I don't really care for/taught them to temporary 'mons before depositing them in the PC, I think. :x

wow, I used to used Sceptile to cut too, and delete it later

So you will need to swap your pokemon often, and that can be boring sometime

it knows fly, surf, rock smash and strength :P perfect for victory road and your travelling needs :P also can learn dig and flash too but u don't really need dig tbh...only missing cut (not needed late game tbh) and waterfall and dive but hm... i don't think there's any divespots at all in XY and i think ppl complained a lot about too much water in gen3 that Alola probaly won't have any divespots :P

it's also fun for trolling gym leaders and NPCs hhahaha. fly and dig...

I must of made a mistake there

Kokobeans August 23rd, 2016 10:59 AM

I used Hawlucha for Fly, Rock Smash, Strength and Cut
Swampert for Waterfall, Dive, Surf.

TlentMught August 23rd, 2016 11:14 AM

i have one that i nicknamed cilan (yeah like the anime) he does lots hms

EmperorFlux August 23rd, 2016 12:59 PM

Nice setups everyone! I like using a variety. :)

Rivvon August 24th, 2016 7:03 PM

Latios. Fly, Surf, Waterfall, and Dive. It's been the only Pokémon in my party for the majority of my post-game playing.

MyUglyOne September 21st, 2016 3:58 PM

I tend to space the HMs between the Pokemon in my party rather than teach multiple HMs to one "slave".

Imafroggy September 21st, 2016 8:07 PM

Quagsire is my most used slave next to Gyarados.
I usually use Pidove or Pidgey or Wingull for flying. They're my transportation slaves.
Bibarel is a nice one too.
