if you want help with your team go to strategies and movesets

Jimmyray July 22nd, 2007 11:49 AM

OK, then who can move it?

Shift July 22nd, 2007 11:49 AM

Does it go here, mate. Better in Strategies and Movesets. I'll report and get it sent there. Cool?

And that team is plain out horrible, no offense. The best is probaly Rayquaza with it's Modest nature, but you probaly wasted it's EV's. >_>

What kind of Pokemon hold's Dire Hit?
Earthquake on Groudon.
Take off Chesto Berry on Groudon unless you put Rest.
No Fly on Salamence.
Dragonite and Tyranitar have meh moves and stats as well.

Jimmyray July 22nd, 2007 11:50 AM

... wow. Hours of play, thrown in my face.

Shift July 22nd, 2007 11:53 AM

If you consider ME mean. Go to Smogon, they'll beat your Pokes up. >_>

And it doesn't take that long to train. Wi-Fi automatically raises/lowers them to Lvl. 50 or Lvl. 100 when you battle anyway so you don't need to go all the way to Lvl. 100.
And EV training only takes a day >_>

~Mithos~ July 22nd, 2007 11:54 AM

here i'll rate them:
EV Trained: 6 or 7/10
Moves: 6/10
Items: 4/10

One thing, every single one can be OHKOd by a semi EV trained Kyogre that knows surf, ice beam, water spout, and blizard (which is a meh move set as well)

EDIT: groudons missing a move -_-

linkinpark187 July 22nd, 2007 12:12 PM

first... with Legendaries, don't rely on too many damaging attacks. its a Legendary, it can take a hit. ok...

Rayquaza ---> since its Spc.Atk is high, i would focus on Spc.Atk's like Dragon Pulse. sure, its a Power House, but what's the point of using Physical Attacks like Avalanche or Earthquake? replase them with something a little more worthwhile.

Blaziken ---> Hyper Beam and Fire Blast are good Spc.Atk's, but because of such a low PP and Accuracy, i wouldn't use them myself. i would teach it Flamethrower and Focus Blast. though, yes, Focus Blast has a low Accuracy, if you give Blaziken the Wide Lense, that will help a bit.

Groudon ---> well, Dragon Claw is a nice touch because of the fact that its a Physical Attack. i'm not sure about Eruption (i don't remember if its Physical or Special), but even though it has Drought, i don't know if i'd teach it Solar Beam. it has a very low Sp.Atk (even for a Normal Pokémon), and your only advantage to it would be if you were going against a Water Type because of Drought. maybe teach it Earthquake, Arial Ace, and Bulk Up (that way you can really max out its Attack, lol).

Salamence ---> i don't think i have to say anything about this one. seems good enough. lol

Tyranitar ---> seems good, but...that Thunder kind of erks me because it has a low Sp.Atk...i'd teach it Iron Tail, but thats just me. lol

Dragonite ---> ...full o' problems. its got a high Attak, not Sp.Atk, so...i'll put up a moveset i think might be better:

Fly
Dragon Claw
Thunder Wave
Giga Impact

that's what i think, but its my opinion, right?

Jimmyray July 22nd, 2007 12:33 PM

Well thanks for all these helpful comments guys ;p

~Mithos~ July 22nd, 2007 12:34 PM

no problem =] anytime for a fellow pokecommunity user [/sarcasm]

linkinpark187 July 22nd, 2007 12:51 PM

you are most very welcome. hope my post helped. :D

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Wrong forum. And why would you post a youtube video of your team? That's totally pointless. Just type out your entire team.

linkinpark197, no offense, but don't rate other people's teams until you learn more about competitive battling.


*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Jimmyray July 22nd, 2007 1:27 PM

The video was made because I wanted to make the most out of my webcam. Sorry, in future I'll type.

Shinji_ July 22nd, 2007 2:52 PM

This should not be hear xD this should be at strategy and movesets and second of all why would you put it in a gbc section this is for old games <.<

linkinpark187 July 22nd, 2007 6:56 PM

hate to tell you, Aragorn, but i've been dropping many people's teams for years now. i've got close to 10 years experience under my belt. i think i know what i'm talking about. :(

Smarties-chan July 23rd, 2007 4:12 AM

Would you please mind actually typing down your team? I'm not going to watch a boring, slow-paced video over and over again just so I can spot every flaw on your team. If you really want your team rated, use text, not bad quality videos with even worse sound quality.

The key part of your post has been bolded. And who exactly have you been battling? To me it doesn't sound like they've been very good.

Anyone who suggests Fly or Giga Impact obviously doesn't know much about competitive battling. And who uses Iron Tail on Tyranitar? o.o

linkinpark187 July 23rd, 2007 10:03 AM

hmm...you think Fly or Giga Impact aren't good attacks? if your Pokémon's Attack and Defense stat is high enough, then i see no reason as to why attacks like that aren't very good. i've battled people with all legend teams using normal Pokémon and won hands down. people take the simple attacks for granted. .....maybe i should give up and stop coming to this site...no, i've still got my trading thread. XP

Jimmyray July 23rd, 2007 10:08 AM

I've completely rearranged my team now. Yes, they were HORRIBLE moves, and a few of them have bad natures, but I'm not training ANY pokemon for a while because I'm just finishing the others off for now.

Please stop criticizing my video, I posted it on youtube so people, not just on this forum, can rate it and all.

Anyways, here's my team:

Groudon, 100, carfeul (Soft Sand)

Eruption
Dragon Claw
Earthquake
Bulk Up

Tyrainitar, 81, timid (Chesto berry)

Rock Slide
Dark Pulse
Earthquake
Rest

Swellow, 100, Modest (Flame Orb)

U-turn
Facade
Brave Bird
Roost

Salamence, 100, bashful (Draco Plate)

Crunch
Dragon Claw
Protect
Rock Slide

Dragonite, 67, jolly (Draco Plate)

Wing Attack
Thunderpunch
Outrage
Dragon Rush

Rayquaza, 100, modest (Draco PLate)

Dragon Pulse
Thunderbolt
Surf
Earthquake

sims796 July 23rd, 2007 10:09 AM

Leaving yourself wide open to attack is never a good idea. A finishing move? Too situational.

As for Fly, that turn your in the air gives me free time to switch to a poke who resist it (Rock, Steel, high DEF etc). Thunder is 100% accurate when an opponent flies, and the two turns it takes to prepare for Fly at 90 base power, I could use 2 Aerial Aces at 65 base power. 40 more base power with those two turns.
-this is in response to linkinpark's comment.

EDIT: Then next time, post a video and write out the team from the start.

Jimmyray July 23rd, 2007 10:14 AM

Is my team improved or does it still suck majorly? Also, I am going to remove the Draco Plate from Rayquaza nd Salamence, because they each only have one Dragon type move. Any suggestions as to what to give it instead?

sims796 July 23rd, 2007 10:23 AM

Life Orb is an option to consider.

Jimmyray July 23rd, 2007 10:25 AM

What does a life orb do?????

sims796 July 23rd, 2007 10:29 AM

Oh boy...it increases the power of moves by-x1.3, I believe? I don't remember by how much, but a good amount. The drawback is, every hit you make causes recoil.
