Alakazam Lost the The ability to Use punches in 4th Gen, but this is 3rd Gym so all the Elemental Punches, plus Timid Nature with Leftovers, and as the last move Calm Mind/Psychic/Shadow Ball. Ev's 4 hp/252 Speed/252 Special.Atk

Anti August 1st, 2007 6:01 PM

I mean w/o calm mind. Why shadow ball? It's physiacal in 3rd gen.
So basically the punches and psychic. Can that work?

Yeah, pretty much Psychic Get' Stab, or same type Attack Power. and Heracross Can't Switch in on that. so it's Standard, and therefore works. Edit:darn we had a mod Viewing this Thread and She/He Went away. well there goes our Sticky, unless She/He's Infoming another Mod About This Thread. The Sticky has Officially been cleaned, and Thrown in the Garbage/away. btw, i forgot that Shadow Ball was Physical in 3rd genaration

Anti August 1st, 2007 6:12 PM

Darn, this could be so helpful to new players too. We could mention items like charcoal and miracle seed are totally useless.
PLEASE sticky this. It would save us from responding to those useless threads.

Well, they'll come on in a few Hours or something like that. better yet, since you Pm'ed Smarties, he'll be looking at this thread. btw, they are 10% Boosting Item's, and that isn't a lot. you should be using Item's like Choice Specs in 4th gen, and Item's like Leftovers in 3rd Gen. Leftovers is the Most Commonly Used Item in the Whole Game, and the fact that you're able to clone in 3rd and 4th gen, you should do it with Leftovers. here's a link to a cloning guide, http://faqs.ign.com/articles/787/787198p1.html
[B]Edit: i just Informed/Pm'ed aragornbird, so he should know about this thread in a while.[/B]

Lord Mike August 2nd, 2007 5:05 AM

Outspeeding is Important, so you're right, with Jolly Nature+Choice Scarf, will be outspeeding a lot of slow things, plus the fact that nobody's expecting a Jolly Nature Rampardos. just Adamant. Edit: Smarties-Kun is on now. and in this thread.

Smarties-chan August 2nd, 2007 6:16 AM

Many of these questions could be asked in the D/P simple questions thread, but I do see the logic behind this. The GB Strategies and Movesets forum is getting cluttered with pointless threads.

I haven't decided whether or not this thread deserves a sticky yet, so I'll watch over it for a couple of days and see how much it actually affects the amount of pointless threads. However, I don't want to see any where-can-I-find-this-Pokémon/item etc posts like Lord Mike put as his examples; I want the questions to be strictly about moveset related matters.

*edit* I'll also wait until I hear Aragornbird's opinion on the matter.

Exactly, why wadn't i thinking? this the Pokémon Strategies & Movesets Forum. so this Thread should pretty much be about about R/S/E or DP Movesets. but mainly Dp, also, Breeding Questions should go here, http://www.pokecommunity.com/forumdisplay.php?f=63 but i don't know if they can go here or not, but i don't think so.

Of course I am aware of the breeder's corner, but since it's hardly active enough for a simple questions thread, questions like ''what Pokémon can Zigzagoon breed with'' can go here as well. (and yes, I know there's a faq about egg groups and such, but there are always people who don't bother reading them, and many people don't even seem to know the breeder's corner exists.)

I'm just gonna put a Link to the Beginners Breeding Guide, http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=15870 btw, if you didn't read the First/Second page, if you Put an Everstone on a Female Pokemon/Ditto. there is a 50% chance that the Baby/Offspring will have the nature of Ditto, or the Female Pokemon. and it's also good if the Female/Ditto has High Iv's in one or more Stats. that way it will breed off the Iv's to the Baby too. Calculate the Iv's with these Iv Calculator's http://www.serebii.net/games/iv-calcdp.shtml or, http://www.serebii.net/games/iv-calc.shtml

I don't about the Rest but use/Calm sassy for Bellosem, Mightyena Jolly/Adamant,Shaperdo Adamant. Use this Ev Spread for Both Mightyena or Shaperdo, 252 speed/252 atk and Either 4 hp or Defense. btw, Garchomp is weak Agenist Ice, or Dragon. but mostly people use ice, because it has a 4x Weakness to it.

Azonic August 2nd, 2007 8:14 AM

OK ppl. I was wondering What moves my Cresselia should have.

Should it have Icebeam over Psychic or Psychic over Icebeam?

And Toxic or T-Wave?

It should have Ice Beam over Psychic, and it depends you could go either way i guess. (With Toxic or Thunderwave).

Stickied for great justice.

Rayl August 2nd, 2007 1:00 PM

Yeah, moveset for umbreon?

Anti August 2nd, 2007 1:46 PM

Umbreon, this is the standard:

[email protected]
Bold Nature
EVs: Can't remeber but someone knows
~Mean Look
~Baton Pass
~Toxic
~WISH

I'm pretty sure that's it. Use mean look and BP it to someone who has a good type matchup on the pokemon who is trapped.

EDIT: Wish is usually in confuse ray's place. Sorry on the mistake.
