He's much better when you focus on physical attacks. Magnet Rise to omit his Ground weakness

ninetales
Move set
flamethrower
will o wisp
comfuse ray/Nasty Plot
extrasensory/Energy Ball/Dark Pulse

Let it sweep some more

porygon-z w/Salac Berry
move set
Nasty Plot
Psychic
Ice Beam/Thunderbolt
Tri-Attack/Recover


Salac-Recover combo is an option here.

sceptile w/Big Root
move set
Leech Seed
Giga Drain
Dragon Pulse
Substitute


Big Root to increase the power of Giga Drain and Leech Seed. Roserade can also pull this set off, except for Dragon Pulse

or the physical version:


Sceptile w/Expert Belt or Life Orb
moveset
Swords Dance
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Leaf Blade


Hariyama w/Life Orb or Muscle Band
move set
Earthquake/Stone Edge
Cross Chop
belly drum
rest

If you really want to use a Belly-Resting Hariyama this set would work to an extent. (I just wish I'd caught my shiny Hariyama.)

luxray
move set
Spark/Thunder Fang
Ice Fang

crunch
Roar

or if you must use special attacks:

Luxray
moveset
Rain Dance
Thunder
HP Ice
Roar/Thunder Wave

The team needs quite a bit of work but I think I've put you on the right track.

NO NO DONT YOU DARE TEACH THUNDER TO LUXRAY! its better at physical attacks than sp.'s, use thunder fang instead

dont use sp. luxray, youll fall to your knees

sims796 June 23rd, 2007 9:51 AM

Yes, sp.att Luxray is a waste of time and energy.

sanjay120 June 23rd, 2007 1:07 PM

Guys, Thunderbolt Luxray does more than Spark Luxray on a Pokemon with equal defenses. Try it out on any damage calc.

And Magnet Rise sucks. It only lasts for five turns and Metagross has better things to be doing, like killing whatever dares to EQ it.

And lol Giga Impact PoryZ.

sims796 June 23rd, 2007 1:25 PM

I feel that both moves are a waste of time on Luxray. And Thunderbolt is much stronger than Spark. If it isn't doing much more than slightly the same amount of damage as Spark on a Luxray, it isn't worth using.

I can see tons of Bulky Waters and even Skarmory laughing at Luxray with Thunder Fang. Naughty Natured Luxray w/Thunderbolt does a LOT more than Thunder Fang would hope to do.

Next thing I'd like to spit on is someone suggesting PorygonZ with Salac Berry. Unless you ran with only 270 Speed, and a lot of HP and defenses, I heavily doubt that could actually work.

Lastly, Leaf Storm + Leftovers offers far more benefits than Giga Drain + Big Root.

You must get rid of all the Physical attacks on Sceptile because he is a Speical Attacker. Remove Leaf Blade, Quick Attack, and since you dont have Leaf Blade, remove the scope lens.
