Please Rate My Team
1. Gengar-Levitate
Nightshade, Psychic, Shadow Ball, Destiny Bond 2. Charizard-Blaze Flamethrower, Aeriel Ace, Substitute, Focus Punch 3. Rhydon-Lightningrod Earthquake, Dig, Magnitude, Sludge Bomb 4. Dragonite-Inner Focus Ice Beam, Flamethrower, Thunderbolt, Dragon Claw 5. Milotic-Marvel Scale Ice Beam, Hydro Pump, Toxic, Return 6. Sceptile-Overgrow Leech Seed, Leaf Blade, Brick Break, Return (If it makes a difference this is my team for 2 on 2 battleing.) |
Your team is ok! I am not professional at rating though. I will let the professionals come in a rate you on EV's and stuff. But as far as I am concerned you have a good team that could easily make two on two battles a nightmare for the opponent!
|
Thanks. On all of the other sites i've posted it on, everyones called me an idiot and told me not to post any thing else. People were fighting so much over what they thought I should do to my team that they closed my thread.

I can't figure out how to get my trainer card into my signature. could you tell me how??

Gengar: Needs focus. Gengar can be a sweeper, an optimum enhancer, or an annoyance. Psychic and Shadow Ball are powerful attacks for either a sweeper or an enhancer. If you want an enhancer replace Destiny Bond with Toxic and Night Shade with T/Bolt(need an attack that works against Dark). For a sweeper still go with T/Bolt, but also Sludge Bomb instead of Night Shade.
Charizard-Drop sub for EQ Rhydon-Replace Dig with Hyper Beam or Surf(Hyper Beam for a phy sweeper or Surf for a self-cover from itself) Dragonite-Very effective. Keep as is. Milotic-Maybe Rain Dance for Toxic...Or keep as an enhancer... Sceptile-Use Toxic for Return. An enhancer is a Pokemon that uses moves such as Toxic, Will-o-Wisp, or Leech Seed to drain enemy HP while you beat on it |

just get a heart scale (to find one, go east of mauville to the sand before the lake, head down till you see a couple of rocks and check both of them. one has a heart scale) and get recover back instead of return. if you have trouble with hydro pump's accuracy switch to surf, but it's a good moveset.

How about adding the natures and hold items of each? Those affect your Pokemon as well, after all.

That said, most of the Chars I've seen have something like this moveset: -Overheat -Rock Slide -Earthquake -Dragon Dance/Belly Drum/Swords Dance You could probably get away with putting in AA instead of either RS (with STAB and all), but really, because of the fact that Char counters Skarmory, you might want to leave it as is. Oh, and of course, you'll want a nature that benefits Speed. Quote:
Dig alone is a pretty bad idea, seeing as your opponent can easily predict what happens next after you go down, switch out for something that can take the hit, and promptly thwack your Rhydon before you can EQ back. Magnitude is more like a horrible version of EQ. It usually has less base power, and either way, it's unpredictable. Not the least bit practical in-battle. That said, I've seen a couple of Rhydons that go like this: -Substitute -Focus Punch -Earthquake -Rock Blast Essentially, another Subpuncher. I'd say you could have probably done better if you bred for Rock Head and replaced something with Take Down (preferably not Focus Punch for obvious reasons), but since this is a 2v2 team (in which case I wonder why you're not showing your strategies by pairing each Pokemon up and explaining how their moves would benefit one another), Lightning rod should be fine to protect at least Charizard, though I'd beware of Charizard's usual EQ. (Milotic doesn't usually need a cover, seeing as she's usually used as a special sponge. I'll get into that later.) Oh, and by the way, Rhydon has pathetic S Attack (which can't support Surf) and just not enough S Defense or Speed to survive HB's recharge while your opponent switches in your standard Alakazam and smacks you with Ice Punch before Rhydon can twitch, so I really wouldn't recommend either.

Overall, not bad. I'm not sure how these Pokemon will support one another, but good luck with that. |
I Cover my Pokemons' Weaknesses Pretty Good
I try to make sure that all of my pokemon know at least one move to protect itself.
Rhydon will protect my Milotic and Charizard with it's Lighningrod and ground attacks can be used against electric, fire, rock, poison, and steel. Which will also help protect itself. My Dragonite can protect any of my pokemon (including itself) from Dragon, Ice, Bug, Grass, Steel, Ground, Flying, and Water Type Pokemon. And Dragon Claw has normal effectivness against most Pokemon. My Sceptile is strong and is good against Ground, Rock, Water, Ice, Steel, Flying, and Dark types. And can protect my Rhydon, my Dragonite, Itself, my Charizard, and Gengar. My Milotic Can Protect my pokemon from Fire, Ground, Rock, Grass, Dragon, Ground, and Flying. Plus Toxic has helped me out of many tough spots. My Charizard can take out Grass, Ice, Bug, Steel, Rock, Normal, Dark, and Fighting. And it can use it's Substitute to get a clean hit with Focus Punch. My Gengar can use it's Psychic against Fighting and Poison. Protecting my Sceptile and Rhydon with one Attack. It's Shadow ball can be used against Psychic and Ghost and is ok against most other pokemon too. And I throw caution to the wind and use Destiny Bond as a last resort (with my gengar holding Quick Claw). And Nightshade is just there for me to use to deafeat pokemon if there health is low and It's going to die anyway Like if it's poisoned or burned (destiny Bond doesn't work if a pokemon faints from a status Condtion). I have spent two years thinking up this team and all of my pokemon are covered. I still have to evolve my Feebas, My charmeleon, and my Rhyhorn though. Now what do you think. |

For example, there's a little trick in 2v2 battles that used to be fairly popular involving Skill Swap. Basically, the user Skill Swapped with any opponent to get their special ability (Lightningrod, for example). That, of course, leaves you wide open. Secondly, there's the issue of stats and stat boosters. Take your average Ninjask. Even in 2v2 battles, it's a Baton Passer. It Subs, Swords Dances, Sub/Protects, SDs, and finishes off the strategy with a Baton Pass to a sweeper, such as a Choice Banded Marowak. Now, given the fact that Ninjask's special ability boosts its Speed every turn, you're looking at a grand total of four Speed boosts and two (or more, if they're lucky enough to get in another SD) Attack boosts. Without a hazer or phazer, even your Charizard is history. Heck, a STABed EQ with boosted Attack and Choice Band might even hand Milotic's scaly rear back to it on a silver platter if the Marowak in question is raised right. And no, "this Pokemon protects my other Pokemon due to its type" doesn't really work out either, especially if that Pokemon in question gets annihilated anyways while you're trying to switch in something that can make a dent in the opponent due to type matchups. You need support. Pokemon moves that just work together. Stats and overall abilities that fit with one another like puzzle pieces. Strategy, man. That said, don't rely on just type. Try to get in other strategies. Think about how each Pokemon really is used, given both its stats and movepool and go from there. |
Every team has it's weaknesses. It's impossible to create an unbeatable team. But if you've battled against other trainers than you must have way more experience than me. I can only battle against the game because I don't know anyone with a pokemon game that I can battle against. This is a good team for battleing in the game because I can easily beat any trainer. But I don't know how it would stand up to another's team.
http://www.tvsian.com/netbattle/ Here is a web adress that I found on another site. I'm browsing it now. And if I can find another Skill Swap I'll use it. I don't know which pokemon I give it to though. |

By the way, if you want a ton of opponents, go on the Smogon server. Just a warning, though: some of them actually know what they're doing there and will most likely jump at you if you give them the slightest reason to believe you don't. Not saying anything to insult you here. I'm just saying it might be tough for a beginner (to Netbattling) there. Quote:
Good luck with your NBing team, though, if you ever decide to make one. |
okay.
gengar. destiny bond is for lats resort, and should have a killer curse combo, to make it easier for DB to take efekt. change psychic to curse. you can save a lot of PP. charizard. omg i HATE focus punch. change it to fly cause focus punch is very rarely into taking effect. rhydon. 1 ground move is enough, scrub EQ and put horn drill or [insert fire,ise or thunder]punch. dragonite. too many offensive moves. scrub flamethrouer, cause char already has it,and replace it with agility. milotic. hydro pump has 5 PP, and it's not verty accurate. replace it with head butt to savve PP. sceptile. good! all i reccomend u to do is take out leech seed and put toxic. alltogether, id rate it an 8, which is pretty good. NOTE: this is the 1st time ver correcting teams, and dont know what evs or ivs are. |
Sorry. I just have to nitpick. ^_^;

Focus Punch isn't that bad, provided you have Substitute up before then. (Actually, you're only supposed to use FP if you've got a Sub. Sub first, then FP until the opponent or your Sub is gone. Basic strategy, actually. Just remember to have a Pokemon whose HP isn't divisible by four because Sub takes 25% health each time, but it leaves a bit of HP if the latter's not a multiple of four. It's worth it, though, especially if you can OHKO your opponent. That way, you could at least take down four opponents, meaning you've still got five Pokemon left to finish off the rest of the team.) Quote:
As for the elemental punches (Fire, Ice, or Thunder), Rhydon's S Attack is its second lowest stat (with Speed being its worst). Yeah, it learns them (except for Ice Punch, according to my sources), but that doesn't mean that it can do much with them. Without STAB or decent stats, you're pretty much giving Rhydon useless moves there. Edit: I just noticed something else here. If anything, you should not take Earthquake off of Rhydon. Take any other Ground move. EQ and Rhydon go together for this reason: 100 base power (of EQ) + STAB + Rhydon's Attack stat = good game, sir. Quote:

gengar[timid/+Att,-Def]@salac
EVs- Sp,SpAtt,hp ice punch thunderbolt destiny bond/focus punch psychic/substitute best used with someone that can explode and earthquake. i suggest metagross but i don't like to change pokemon so instead i will just recommend the best movesets for each pokemon. And ingame battling only requires high levels. Charizard[jolly]@salac EVs - SpAtt,Sp,Att dragon dance/sword dance over heat/rockslide/fire blast earthquake aerial ace/HP flying Rhydon[Adamant] EVs - hp,Def,Att earthquake substitute focus punch rock blast or use rhydon[adamant]@choice band EVs - Att,hp,Def rockblast earthquake megahorn double edge/focus punch Dragonite[+SpAtt,-Sp]@leftovers EVs - Att,SpAtt,hp,Def ice beam/flamethrower thunderbolt substitute focus punch And dragonite cannot protect you against ice and dragon type attacks. Though it is the ultimate of tankish dragons.So it should cover you with all other special type attacks. Milotic[calm]@leftovers surf ice beam toxic recover Use the sceptile moveset recommended above. |
I haven't had the chance to get on the Pokemon Community Forums for months. I've been working on a Milotic and I want to see what you think.

if this helps,
here is sumthing for ur altaria but you need to add another pokemon, THIS IS TALKING ABOUT WHAT your opponent could do, but you could do the same cant you? :rambo: :rambo: :dead: :rambo: :rambo: 3. Perish Trapping Skills involved: perish song, whirlpool, mean look, spider web, block, Wobbuffet How it works: after using mean look or spider web so you can run, the opponent will unleash perish song so you will be doomed to die within 3 turns. During these 3 turns, the opponent will use all forms of stalling moves possible to protect itself. On the last turn just before perish song takes place, your opponent will switch pokemon so your opponent will be saved while you perish. Wobbuffet's Shadow Tag ability also serves as a mean look. Counters: -mean look/spider web them, kamikaze style. Both pokemon shall suffer together -mass attack: unleash your strongest attack every turn constantly, hoping for a chance to faint the opponent. If the opponent faints, mean look/spider web effect will fade and you can switch out to save yourself -pseudohaze: force them to switch to neglect the effect of trapping so you can switch out Trap: pseudo-pseudohaze Using perish song without mean look with eventually result in the opponents switching. It maybe one good way to rid a powerful buffed opponent or dragon dancer... provided that you can surivive the 3 rounds. Other Note: toxic/curse (ghost type) This strategy can be mixed with toxic/curse as well. Instead of perish song, toxic/curse (ghost type) will be the killer move. It works in the exact same manner. However a new counter is available to toxic trapping, and that is rest. GIVES CREDIT TO FROSTWEAVER, he posted this on http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=5715&page=1&pp=25 look at it much more help... |
Nice well balanced team. Did they help you in battle frontier? I give it a 10/10

That team is prettty good but the return move do your pokemon really like you but anyway return sucks if you do'nt know how to use it but I like your dragonite with the 3 elements and dragon claw . those are great and why magnitude for a rhydon why not megahorn or thunderbolt? and the dig replace it for rockslide for stab. gengar:Not bad with those moves destiny bond remove for thunderbolt Night shade for brick break for those annoying dark types the shadow ball for stab and those psychic users. Grade:8/10 the grade was my opinion but the moves where really meant and sorry for acting all know it all. |
