Just a few of my ideas... not all, since a few Pokes I'm not familiar with.

Metagross @ Leftovers
Adamant Nature
-Meteor Mash
-Earthquake
-Thunder Punch/Explosion
-Agility/Explosion/Pursuit

Some people can't get Thunder Punch... if not, Explosion is nice. Agility unless you use Choice Band. Never use Special moves on Metagross unless you're doing a surprise special sweeper. Pursuit can be a good move, too... switch Gross into a weaker Poke, and predict when they'll switch, and Pursuit for a possible OHKO, especially to something like Gengar.

Milotic @ Leftovers
Bold Nature
- Surf
- Ice Beam
- Hypnosis
- Recover

Breed for Hypnosis... it's well worth it. Sleep-Talking Milotic, the one Fiore mentioned, works also, but I don't prefer it.

Electivire @ Leftovers
Adamant Nature
- Thunder Punch
- Ice Punch
- Cross Chop
- Earthquake

Electivire's Attack stat far outweighs his Special Attack, so this is a decent physical sweeper movepool... Ice Punch for Grounds, Earthquakes for Steels that may pack ground moves, Thunder Punch for STAB, and Cross Chop to take out any Blissey in a single hit. Pretty much, this set up can wreck havoc on any team. It did on mine!

Spiritomb @ Leftovers
Sassy Nature
- Pain Split
- Taunt
- Will-O-Wisp
- Dark Pulse

Spiritomb is a great dual wall, and has some attacking potential too. But this set is a good annoyer set. Taunt someone so they attack, it shouldn't do too much to Tomby, and Pain Split the difference. Will-O-Wisp for any physical attacker who comes to getcha, and Dark Pulse for a decent STAB. Dark Pulse could be replaced with Sucker Punch for a Taunt-Punch combo, but then go with Careful Nature, or something along those lines.

Thanks for your help guys looks like imma be breeding and training for the next couple of days.

Soulinferno June 19th, 2007 5:54 PM

Sorry for double post but to get metagross to learn thunder punch I would have to breed that into him?

sims796 June 19th, 2007 6:25 PM

Mamamia...I'm never gonna get help with my Roserade at this rate.

But seriously, to answer your question, I checked out serebii.net, and it doesn't even look like it can learn Thunderpunch. I could be wrong, but I didn't see it on the list of learnable moves. And I didn't see anything in the breeding movelist.

EDIT: Oops! I thought you could breed it into him... my mistake! Metagross can't learn any new moves because of Beldum's 1-move syndrome. Only way to get it is to transfer from Emerald, or the likes.

I sent you a PM, but I'll post here too for general reference.

What you gotta do is cross-breed... it's strenuous, but well worth the outcome. Here's the layout:

1.) You'll need a male Hitmonchan, learns Ice Punch at Lv31

2.) Breed that Hitmonchan with a female Machop. The resulting Machop will have Ice Punch. Butmake sure that your resulting Machop is a male.

3.) Take that male Machop, level it up to 37; it will learn Cross Chop.

4.) Breed that male Machop with a female Electabuzz (make sure the female has the nature you want, and let it hold an Everstone).

5.) You'll end up with an Elekid that has both Ice Punch and Cross Chop! With Everstone on the Adamant female, there's a 50% chance the offspring will be Adamant... so keep tryin'!

And BTW, be sure that you put an Electabuzz into the daycare for breeding, and not an Elekid... otherwise, you'll be waiting for an egg for a loooooooong time. ;)

Cross-breeding can require quite a bit of articulation... so if I made a mistake, or if someone has an easier way, please do post!

Get the elekid in XD if you want it has all the elemental punches and cross chop. Some guy at the outpost stand will give you it if you purify his togepi or togetic i dont remember which
