Rate My Cloyster
 
I've never really used Cloyster before and I wasn't sure about the EVs. Suggestions are gladly accepted.


Cloyster (M) @ Leftovers ** Hard Clampin'
Trait: Shell Armor
EVs: 252 HP / 16 Atk / 164 Def / 76 SAtk
Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Ice Beam
- Rest
- Spikes
- Explosion

I thought 480 Defense is good for Cloyster consider its got Fighting and Rock weaknesses. The only thing I really hate is its HP. I decided I really needed to max it out because it was pathetic.

What do you think?

Standard Spiking Cloyster only with Rest over Rapid Spin.
Lax is better

Cloyster cannot survive the Resting turns

Flame Demon July 6th, 2006 12:37 PM

It can if you can use it right. :\

Don’t use both Rest and Explosion on the same Pokemon. That’s oxymoronic. Choose to either live or commit suicide. Rapid Spin please. Cloyster is one of those few Spinners that can stand up to Skarmory.

OK, changed it to Rapid Spin.

"Oxymoronic"? I need to look that up. :)

Pax Deorum July 6th, 2006 1:23 PM

Doesn't work well together or doesn't exist together

Flame Demon July 6th, 2006 1:26 PM

Yeah, I guess so. Rapid Spin over Explosion because I find it the most useless move there.

Cloyster @ Focus Band ** Will Smith
Trait: Swift Swim
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 4 SDef
Hasty Nature (+Spd, -Def)
- Water Pulse
- Rapid Spin
- Selfdestruct
- Aurora Beam

This is awsome.

Fr0st July 7th, 2006 6:55 AM

Stop posting tbh...
Surf is stronger than Water Pulse
Ice beam is stronger than Aurora Beam
Cloyster has bad Sp.Atk so it needs powerful moves
Cloyster is a spiker and should have spikes

Dawson123 July 7th, 2006 6:57 AM

starmie fighter July 7th, 2006 7:02 AM
