Hypnosis is so good in sweeping in so many ways.

What would ketchup taste like on a yo-yo...

the Yanmega movepool i had no idea what to put. I had Psychic up there just because it had a 90 base power and Shadow Ball didn't, but now i see why it's smarter to use Shadow Ball. As for Gengar, i don't know, I usually explode when he's at a low health, so i'll have to think about it. The reason I don't have Roost on Togekiss is because I never needed to use it, but i guess i can put it up there. Can't really do anything about the nature though. Electivire is a can do. And for the Proygon-Z, to reset the Ev's all i have to do is use the berrys right?

Gengar is more of a Sweeper than a :knockedou er.

Its attack is horrible and probably won't do much damage. Hypnosis is fantastic with Sweeping so you can keep attacking with no harm done to you.

His Attack is very low, I'll try it and get back to it. But so far it would have Ko'ed a full health Def EV trained Swampert, but it just had to have focus Sash. As for the Wide Lens, i'll try it.

What did you do to that Yanmega? :\

Take off Shadow Ball and Giga Drain for Protect and Hypnosis. Protect first turn, outspeeds most stuff 2nd turn. for the Hypnosis. Put Wide Lens on it if you're afraid of the miss on Hypnosis.

Gengar: Shadow Ball/Thunderbolt/Focus Blast/Explosion or a filler. I'd say Hypnosis over Explosion usually, but you got Yanmega, and sleep clause is standard. Black Sludge or Choice Specs on it. Even life orb would work on that set.


Togekiss: Standard. I forget standard Togekiss EVs though. :/ I don't like Togekiss.

Electivire: You're using lonely nature. Should be a Mixed Sweeper set with Expert Belt. Thunderbolt over Thunderpunch. 240 Atk, 16 Sp. Atk, 252 Spd is standard EV spread I believe.

Pory-Z: If you're running Choice Specs on it, Hyper Beam over Shadow Ball. Why Hyper Beam? 337 Base Damage with Adaptability and Stab. Hurts a bit. Life Orb is another option here, which I'd run on a Porygon-Z. If you choose Life Orb, Nasty Plot over Shadow Ball.

Salamence: Uh, that's standard, but this Salamence should be physical. :/ You have 5 special attackers, and 1 Mixed attacker. (If you're going Lonely Nature on Electvire. A DDmence set would be nice here.


Overall, you're team can't switch anyone in vs a Physical attacker really. Togekiss can take special hits for a bit I guess. But Salamence is the only thing that kind of protects you from physical attacks, but not really. Once they see Salamence, they'll easily predict the switch to it.

@Towlie wanna get high? Jk.

The Yanmegas original moveset was Protect, Psychic, Bug Buzz and Air slash. I would usually use Protect first turn anyways, the only people i can play until i get WiFi or a better computer use AMbipom as their Starter, so i use Protect, they use Fake Out, it doesn't do anything, i use Bug Buzz, the Ambipom goes down. I don'y know if i should take off the Shadow Ball for Hypnosis ofr not, but i think it's a possibility.

As for Gengar, I think i'll stick with the original set because i tried it out against my friend and well, i beat him, but his last poke was tougher because of no explosion. I'll still use the Wide Lens for Focus Blast.

As for Electevire, the only reasoni have lonely is because it's the only one i had time to breedn when i had the chance to trade and get him.

I would use Hyper Beam except i'm using Choice SCARF, and my Porygon-Z works just fine. I'll just re-do the EV's.

As for the Salamence i can't change. His attack is around 210 or so, and i don't like using DDance because alot of People i know use Haze, Taunt, and stuff of that nature.
