What's a good moveset for Gyarados?
 
I thinking something like this.

Gyarados @ Leftovers
Trait: Intimidate
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Hidden Power [Flying]
- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake
- Taunt

I'm clueless about the EVs. :\

You can try Secret Power on Gyarados and Water Gun is good too.

Allegoric Zapdos July 7th, 2006 6:30 AM

What?!? Secert Power and Water Gun?

Have 264 spd, lots in Atk, and put the rest in HP/SpD.

I didn't expect that!

Thanks for real helping Zapdos!

Dawson123 July 7th, 2006 6:38 AM

You're right! Tackle is better because you have more PP.

Fr0st July 7th, 2006 7:00 AM

TBH you should be reported and you are a gimmick as you weren't this stupid before
When in this thread did anybody before you say tackle is good?

Pax Deorum July 7th, 2006 7:20 AM

You're funny, too bad you'll be banned soon =(

Flame Demon July 7th, 2006 7:54 AM

Stop spamming my thread man. That's not cool. Water Gun and Secret Power are two moves that nobody would use.

Sammi July 7th, 2006 7:59 AM

Dawson123 -- Don't you DARE spam the thread. Next SPAM post I see out of you will be a warning.

Sorry to interrupt your thread. ^^;

Flame Demon July 7th, 2006 8:06 AM

It ok. This guy needs help anyway. :\

The EVs are working great!

~*^*~~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~~*^*~

Okay, Sammi, how about we ban this noob right now?

~*^*~~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~~*^*~

Sammi July 7th, 2006 8:19 AM

He's got it coming to him now. =) Whee!

Okay, let's get back on topic now. XDD;;

Flame Demon July 7th, 2006 8:21 AM

Whoa! This guy's scary! Literally!

__Dragonair__ July 7th, 2006 8:25 AM

how about dragon rage?(i thing its a god attack)

__Dragonair__ July 7th, 2006 8:27 AM

i ment good -_- (darn me with my alful spelling)(sorry for posting twice in a row)

Flame Demon July 7th, 2006 8:28 AM

Um, the edit button it right there.

Dragon Rage does 40 damage. In OU most Pokemon have 300+ HP.

aragornbird July 7th, 2006 8:29 AM

~*^*~~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~ ~*^*~~*^*~

It’s called the EDIT BUTTON. Use it to EDIT your posts so that you won’t have too double post, because that’s not allowed.

Also, Dragon Rage sucks big time. It only use 40 HP of damage. At level 100, even weak Pokemon have at least 200 HP, which means you’ll have to use this attack at least 5 times in order to kill them. What a waste.

__Dragonair__ July 7th, 2006 8:31 AM

sorry im new and i dont know where the edit button is ill look for it before i ever post again(so sorry)

shanecdavis July 7th, 2006 8:40 AM

Interesting how Dawson was banned and now Dragonair is suddenly here.

I will humor the post by saying that Dragon Rage should only be used in NLE/Pika Cup, since, as Flame Demon said, 40 damage on a 400 HP Poke is laughable. Gyarados has a crappy base SAtk, so only physical moves should be used. Please don't offer suggestions unless you know more about movesets, attacks, stats, and the metagame.

__Dragonair__ July 7th, 2006 10:01 AM

well my dragonair had dragon rage it worked well but i didnt know it was that bad o.O i got rid of that attack when it evolved into my new dragonite thats has wing attack (now any better but) oh and sorry for suggesting such a weak move *blushes*

jc_rcw July 7th, 2006 3:33 PM

lol, anyways you can go into a more defensive set.
[email protected]
Dunno the evs :x, but they are more defensive.
Hidden power flying
earthquake
rest
roar

It was something like that, don't remember atm.

Exokriz July 7th, 2006 4:29 PM

I wouldn't know how effective this would be.....just a suggestion though

[email protected]
Modest
-Flamethrower
-Ice Beam/Earthquarke
-Surf
-Thunder

Just a thought, it may be helpful, a good Sp.ATKer that could blow away pretty much any element

Rubberbandman July 7th, 2006 4:39 PM

Special Gyara is horrible, SAtk is its worst stat

jc_rcw July 7th, 2006 4:39 PM

Not really it kinda fails, it has much more use attacking, than by using sp. atks.

Toothache July 8th, 2006 12:27 AM

Hydro Pump is about Gyarados's only special option, since it has a way of fighting back against the anti-Dragon Dancers (Claydol, Solrock, Lunatone). Sure it has only 60 base Sp Att, but with STAB + 120 power move the overall effect isn't too bad. The surprise factor alone makes it viable.
