A Salamence Question
 
I have 2 shiny Bagons, 1 of which I'm turning into a Life Orb-using Mixed Sweeping Salamence. Trouble is, one has very bad Sp. Atk and Defence IVs (Bashful) and the other one has very bad Speed and HP IVs (Quiet). Which one should I use? And could you give me EV distribution ideas too?

Salamence is better suited a physical attacker. With its ability intimadate the oppenants physical moves do less damage. So go for Bashfull. Attacks I recomend are Earthquake, Dragon Dance, Aerial Ace, And Rock Slide.

The first can be DD/CB, the second can be Specsmence.

Thanks for the advice but the slot on my team for a Physical attacker has been filled. Which one would be a better mixed sweeper?

EDIT: I have an idea. Life Orb Mixed Sweeper Salamence: I'll use the Quiet one, put most EVs into Sp. Atk, Speed & Defences, and give it Dragon Dance

EDIT 2: Scratch that. Can't be done. DD is only an Egg move for the Bagon family

You could use the other one for mixed sweeper purposes, I would give hold item, Quick Claw to help it sometimes attack first....or Salac Berry.... The Teach it something Like Ice Beam, Flamethrower, Dragon Claw and Earthquake (or Aerial Ace)

Everly84 June 21st, 2007 7:21 PM

this lacks a stab move, and makes it vunerable to other salamences, give it dragon rush/dragon claw
