8 out of 10 that Gyarados is reallly a good one

The team is very solid and stable, so I can't really do much to critique. What I can do is ask the more knowledgeable people on the board what the purpose of a Tauntridos is. I can't understand how it would be benificial to force an opponent attack. In all but one of the scenarios in my mind, I can't see how it would work. Perhaps someone could give me an example?
Person 1 sends out Gyarados Person 2 sends out Exeggutor Person 2 switches Exeggutor for Jolteon Person 1's Gyarados uses Taunt Person 2's Jolteon uses Thunderbolt Person 1's Gyarados faints. _________________________________ Person 1 sends out Gyarados Person 2 sends out Exeggutor Person 2 switches Exeggutor for Jolteon Person 1's Gyarados uses Dragon Dance Person 1's Gyarados uses Earthquake Person 2's Jolteon faints _________________________________ Person 1 sends out Gyarados Person 2 sends out Exeggutor Person 2 switches Exeggutor for Jolteon Person 1's Gyarados uses Dragon Dance Person 2's Jolteon uses Endure Person 1's Gyarados uses Earthquake Jolteon's Salac Berry activates Person 2's Jolteon uses Thunderbolt Person 1's Gyarados faints _________________________________ Person 1 sends out Gyarados Person 2 sends out Exeggutor Person 2 switches Exeggutor for Jolteon Person 1's Gyarados uses Dragon Dance Person 2's Jolteon uses Endure Person 1's Gyarados uses Earthquake Jolteon's Salac Berry activates Person 1 switches Gyarados for Rhydon Person 2's Jolteon uses Thunderbolt It doesn't effect Rhydon So you see, in each of the scenarios, unless the Gyarados is REALLY good at predicting, it doesn't really have a chance to really use taunt effectively. At least, according to my mind. |
the idea is for poison,leech seed that kind of stuff
|
thats a good point I didn't relize all of those scenerios I bet there is more too

It's really all about prediction, I guess. In the same go, one could (say) switch to Salamence or Aerodactyl after the Endure is taunted. So I understand how it'd be good, but not as good as everyone says it is. But then again, the scenarios are rather biased.
|
yup all about luck:)(message too short)
|
The point is to stop pokes from PHazing you out (ie. Suicune), and to stop random junk like WoW, T-Wave, and stat ups.
|
That makes a lot of sense, it does.
|
wow that is very good team
|
lol wtf.
Jolteon @ Leftovers always. Anyway... Quote:
Check that, be REALLY careful of Swampert. |
On that Starmie, it's better to go with Thunder Wave than Psychic if you're going to put Rapid Spin in there. Starmie with Psy,Surf,T-Bolt is more of a sweeper, while a Starmie with T-Wave, Rapid Spin, and Recover is more Utility/Annoyer.
...Maybe it's because I don't like Rapid Spin *doesn't really deal with Spikes/Leech Seed* |
*punches bliskem* I like my sweeping starmie it helps a lot:)
|
anyway
lol...taunt screws weezing,stops skarmory and suicune and well blissey without softboil is finished off easily... Celebi too...no HB/CM, leech seed or recover...means a dead celebi. Deathstar is done. Starmie - icebeam/thunderbolt/recover/rapid spin |
happy to see some one who understands the power of taunt:D
