Stage One poke team...
Yay, I have agreed to one of my few friends who play pokemons rules. We are gonna battle using only stage one pokemon.
Rules: The stage one pokemon must have a stage two form. Meaning I cant use stuff like Houndoom and Milotic. (crud) Basic ruling (sleep clause etc.) Shelgon @ (item here) Nature: Lonley -Double Edge -Brick Break- -Dragon Dance -Dragon Claw Grovyle @ Salac Nature: Timid -Leech Seed- -Thunder Punch- -Sub- -Leaf Blade- Basically A mini sceptile without dragon claws. Machoke @ Choice Band?? Nature: Adamant -Cross Chop/Brick Break/Focus Punch (cant decide)- -Earthquake- -Rock Slide- -Facade- I obviously know im going to need substitute if I FP, No CB if I FP. Vigoroth Nature: Adamant -Slash- -Counter- -Aerial Ace- -Brick Break- (shame it doesnt get swords dance) Kadabra Nature: Timid -Psychic- -Calm Mind- -Fire Punch- -Ice punch- (not much else I can do) Wartortle Nature: Bold -Counter- -Ice Beam- -Surf- -Mirror Coat- This is fun to use because wartortle has the defense to use these two moves. (counter and mirror coat). Give me items nature suggestions all that good stuff. I mainly need items. |

You almost never see anyone posting here about anything except OU, and that's a shame. There are several metagames out there which are somewhat better, since the OU metagame is really limited to about 20-30 standards. I do get fed up with seeing the same Pokemon over again.
In case you don't know: uber: uber/legendary, uses the legendaries that most people ban/clause for good reason in standard play (examples Mewtwo, Deoxys, Lugia, Groudon) OU: overused/standard metagame, the most commonly talked about metagame, features unclaused legendaries (examples Salamence, Metagross, Gengar, Zapdos) BL: borderline, Pokemon that can't quite cut it against OU but work fine against most others or with some team support. (examples Houndoom, Blaziken, Claydol) UU: underused/underappreciated, below the borderlines but can just about hold their own (examples Gligar, Solrock, Fearow) NU: never used, Pokemon that have such low stats they can't really do anything, or are just never used because there are better choices (examples Raticate, Whiscash, Sudowoodo) UE: unevolved, usually used for Little Cup challenges and the like (examples Abra, Scyther, Chansey) NFE: not fully evolved, Pokemon that have a middle stage (examples Vigoroth, Shelgon, Kadabra, Machoke) There should be a sticky on terms like this (or is there one?) |
A topic with the tiers, yes; this topic, no.
|
Smogon has tier lists I believe.
|
Everyone has a server/tier list, so bleh.

Use Leftovers on Grovyle if you want to SubSeed. I'm not familiar with the NFE speed tiers so I dunno how fast he is, although I doubt much is faster before Salac.

No Machamp. =(
Machoke (M) @ Choice Band Trait: Guts Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Cross Chop - Facade - Hidden Power [Bug] (70 power) / Brick Break / Earthquake - Rock Slide Double STAB for ingame because one of the moves have a purpose if your friends are smart and use JirChamp (Reflect). ;) Earthquake if they don't use supporting moves like Reflect/Light Screen, or HP [Bug] if it has perfect 70 power (which it most likely doesn't). |

fyi, NB NFE Tournaments ban Kadabra, Vigoroth, and the like, but since this is in-game, it’s no big deal. Anyways, Wartortle kinda sucks and trying to use Counter/Mirror Coat won’t work well in this metagame. Marshtomp is the better Water starter: Marshtomp @Leftovers Nature: Brave EVs: 252 Atk/ some in Sp. Attack, put the leftovers in HP or Defense -Earthquake -Rock Slide -Hydro Pump -Ice Beam Metang is also nice, not because it has stellar Attack, but because it resists a ton of stuff . Use the CB version, just like you would a Metagross: Meteor Mash, Earthquake, Rock Slide, Explosion. Also, don’t forget about Haunter. It can’t learn the elemental punches, but it can learn a lot of other stuff. Haunter @Leftovers Hasty, Timid, or Modest -Thunderbolt -Psychic -Shadow Ball/Giga Drain/Hypnosis -Destiny Bond/Explosion All three are viable options for your sixth slot. ~*^*~~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~~*^*~ |
I cant use MAchamp in a freakin stage one game...
Oh thanks AB, I always thought Wartortle was a bad idea.... It was jus fuller really I like Metang, and Haunter. Marshtomp is a mini swampert. I kinda got bored with swampert. I can see why Kadab is banned. But why vigo, Vigo doesnt even have triple digit stats. Kadabra has 120 base Sp.attack on the other hand |
Metang and haunter are very useful in nfe.
