From what I have learned here, attacks of the same type aren't good. On your pokemon, you have several moves of the same kind. The last three have at least 3 moves of the same type.

I'm not that great(actually, I'm horrible) at movesets, but I suggest that you keep the strongest, and add in fillers.

Sapphire Skitty July 8th, 2005 9:56 PM

Okay, I'm not experienced at rating......but here it goes.

Swampert- Muddy water, surf, and mud shot are almost the same moves. Replace Muddy water with Blizzard. The reason why you should keep surf is because it has better accuracy than Muddy water. Mud shot can be replaced with Facade. The Sitrus Berry is fine.

Nuzleaf- Try giving it more grass type moves. Cut can be replaced with solar beam (in the safari zone) unless you totally need the HM. The silk scarf can be used for a normal type. Try giving it a miracle seed or blackglasses.

Latias- Subsitute Refresh with Thunderbolt. Mist Ball is uneeded, because it has low PP and Psychic is a more powerful Psychic move. So replace Mist Ball with Ice Beam. Let Latias hold leftovers; she will be useful in the pokemon league if you teach her the moves I suggested.

Raichu- Ayiyi! What do we have here? THunderbolt, thundershock, thunder wave? Try replacing thunder wave with Double Team. Use Iron Tail instead of thundershock. I like how you let it hold the magnet.

Chimecho- Psychic is fine. Replace confusion with double team. Replace Psywave with Take Down. The twisted spoon is fine.

Torkoal- Flamethrower and Heat wave are fine. Replace ember with rest. Replace rock smash with body slam. Give it Charcoal instead of quick claw.



Well, for a first timer I did a pretty good job! I hope that my suggestions have helped. (BTW, I do not own Emerald yet so I'm a little unsure about some locations.)

Give it Lefties if you want a Cursepert or give it Chesto berry to be able to use Chesto Resting.

Nuzleaf Lv.46
Ability: Chlorophyll
Nature: Brave
Item: Lefties
Moves:
Explosion
Extrasensory
Solarbeam
Sunny Day

Sunnybeamer moveset. You'll speed up and sweep with Solarbeam. Extrasensory can't do so much damage (compared to Solarbeam), it's just for pokemons that Solarbeam can't do a good damage to. Explosion is cool to surprize the opponent.

Latias Lv.48
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Docile
Item: Lefties/Soul Dew
Moves:
Recover-pp 20
Calm Mind
Dragon Claw
Psychic-pp 10

Calm Mind up then sweep.

Raichu Lv.46
Ability: Static
Nature: Sassy
Item: Lefties
Moves:
Quick Attack
Substitute
ThunderBolt-pp 15
Focus Punch

Chimecho Lv.46
Ability: Levitate
Nature:Careful
Item: Lefties
Moves:
Heal Bell
Reflect
Light Screen
Yawn

Some sort of Pseudo Passer moveset. It's sp.attack isn't very good so you should just use it with this moveset. Heal Bell is a good move and Yawn is to force the opponent to switch. It won't live long anyway... :\

Torkoal Lv.46
Ability: White Smoke
Nature: Quiet
Item: White Herb/Lefties
Moves:
Overheat
Sludge Bomb
Body Slam
Curse

You can choose to give it White Herb to restore Overheat.

Don't give your pokemon certain attack-type increasing hold items, because 10% doesn't worth to use them.
Hope these suggestions will help you. Well, good luck!

Swampert Lv.46@Lefties
Ability: Torrent
Nature: Mild
Item: Sitrus Berry
Moves:
Earthquake-pp 10
Ice Beam-pp 10
Sword Dance/Rock Slide/Curse
Surf-pp 15

Surf is good, since it can't learn Hydro Pump. Use Ice Beam for Swampert's only weakness: Grass! Of course, always have Earthquake, but if you're waiting until Level 52 to teach it Earthquake and not waist the TM, you can do that to. And, of course, Sword Dance or Curse can help with boosting the power of Earthquake. Or you can use Rock Slide if you can't find anything else.

Nuzleaf Lv.46@Twistedspoon (for Extrasensory)
Ability: Chlorophyll
Nature: Brave
Item: Silk Scarf
Moves:
Faint Attack-pp 20
Extrasensory-pp 20
Giga Drain/Solarbeam
Swagger-pp 15

Sorry! Cut and Fake Out just never work out. Why not a Grass attack since its a Grass Pokemon? And Extrasensory can take down those mean Fighting-types and use a Twistedspoon for the extra boost it needs. Keep Swagger to confuse and then sweep. Or you can use Sunny Day with Solarbeam to sweep with that and Extrasensory. And finally, keep Faint Attack so it has one Dark attack.

Latias Lv.48@Lefties
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Docile
Item: None
Moves:
Recover-pp 20
Thunderbolt/Ice Beam
Dragon Claw-pp 15
Psychic-pp 10

Even if you just caught it, you need to teach it good moves! Keep Psychic and Recover and give it Dragon Claw and either Thunderbolt or Ice Beam. Or if you like stronger sweepers use Calm Mind to strengthen the sp. attacks and then sweep.

Raichu Lv.46@Salac Berry (for speed for Focus Punch)
Ability: Static
Nature: Sassy
Item: Magnet
Moves:
Thunder Wave-pp 20
Sustitute-pp 10
ThunderBolt-pp 15
Focus Punch-pp 20

Sub/Focus punch is good for Raichu. Use Sub and Paralyz with T-wave and use Focus Punch and T-bolt to sweep. Use the Salac Berry to boost Speed to sweep faster.

Chimecho Lv.46
Ability: Levitate
Nature:Careful
Item:Twisted Spoon
Moves:
Confusion-pp 25
Psychic-pp 10
Calm Mind-pp 20
Psywave-pp 15

Chimecho is not a Pokemon I would pick for a team considering that it has truely horrible stats and can learn barely any good moves, so I'm not giving any advice on Chimecho.

Torkoal Lv.46@Lefties
Ability: White Smoke
Nature: Quiet
Item: Quick Claw
Moves:
Sunny Day-pp 5
Flamethrower-pp 15
Curse/Sludge Bomb/Body Slam
Curse/Sludge Bomb/Body Slam

Rock Smash and Ember for Torkoal is a huge no-no. And have 2 Fire Attacks that basicly does the exact same amount of damage is also not good. Keep the one with the most PP.
