woah, from now on ~Kazaam~ just bold your changes.

And you might want to keep Hitmontop as a Rapid Spinner. Spikes can get pretty annoying.

FYI I did bold my changes, I was trying to say that I changed everything, also, that's why I told hin yo change Hitmontop, it doesn't do well as a rapid spinner.

I meant like on Togekiss, just bold the EV's and not the moveset because you didn't change anything there.

And yes it may not be great but any rapid Spinner is better than none at all in most cases.

You know what, I always see you here trying to give advice, but I never see you battling, kinda hard to give battling advice if you don't actually battle. Anyways, I think that hitmontop only works as a technician sweeper, same as scizor.

I don't battle because I don't have WiFi and have no way of getting it, my friend just got WiFi though, so I may be able to battle once in a while.
I wasn't attacking you or anything, just saying it'll be easier to spot changes if you bold only our changes.

Either one will work I just think that if you bring in weavile when an alakazam uses psychic(thus it doens't effect you)then of course it will switch out and you can kill it with a STAB pursuit.

Personally I don't really care about your battling record or what it does to your opinion.

Anyways Kazaam, I agree with your changing Hitmontop for Forretress.. Good luck with your team.

It doesn't matter if you care, it just shows that I know what would actually happen in a battle, and you...... well you just don't.

Take the switch for Forry,

Good Rapid Spinners can stay on the field for at least two turns. and with a Defense stat like that, yuh huh.

Or I could have a brain and be able to figure it out on my own. I do assmeble teams and battle locally with friends. I'm not that clueless.

Anyways, I never said Hitmontop was a good Rapin Spinner, I jsut said it's a good idea to have one. Never meant to have an argument. The Op changed Hitmontop for Forretress, now he has a good rapin spinner. Theres nothing else to discuss really.

And it can hold Macho Brace to make it even slower(Torky) <which covers Rock Weakness (yay! smart me!)

Hitmontop can barely last a turn out there so... well... it sucks XDD

Kazaam, attacking May was not necessarry. Battle Record means nothing, especially when critisizing advice. Do you know his record? If not, don't bring it up. He might be extremley good with strategy. So don't start on that.

I say Claydol. Wanna jump on that? My record is pretty good.

I don't know who you think you are but I wasn't attacking may and yes a battle record shows you have experience for example can you tell me what a war is like? I'm sure you have never been to one but according to you that doesn't matter so just tell me what it's like when you're in one.

I say donphan. It has ice shard(like I said before) and garchomp is all too common in battle so I suggest that.
