He's Sims, one of the nicest and most sensible guys around.

Hypnosis works better, because people are going to try there best to attack Milotic with physical moves. Plus because of its sp. Defense the moves going back won't doa s much anyways.

It seems you were. It doesn't matter how much you win, you can still give bad advice. Not that you were, the advice was fine. Saying you know more than May cause you had more wins is moot.

Since you asked who I was, I am May's friend.

Now, as I said, Claydol seems fine.

If you had battled enough you would know that evryone uses the sleep clause, which means you can only have one pokemon asleep at a time, which makes hypnosis not the best choice of moves.

ACtually I read around and have read battling rules. Sleep Clause says you can only put one pokemon asleep at a time. If they switched out they're asleep pokemon and sends in say a physical sweeper. Than you'll probabley switch out anyways. And if he/she doesn't, you can attack at will.

And putting that one major threat to sleep is bad? I say Milotic is arguable. One says Hypnosis, the other says Toxic. One says Flame Orb, another says Leftovers.

Besides, Hynosis saved my arse plenty of times, with or without sleep clause.

[email protected]/macho brace
Relaxed: 252 hp 252 def. 6 atk
gyro ball
overheat
EQ
rapid spin

and donphan:
Donphan @ leftovers
Impish: 252 def. 152 hp, 106 atk
ice shard

I still say that mirror coat is the best choice. If you have in milotic, they will most likely switch to starmie or gengar with thunderbolt. Mirror coat will easily take them out.

[email protected]
Impish~252 Hp/258 defense/100 attack(If you want a tank)
EQ
Rapid Spin
Counter/rest
Ice Shard

If I've got one pokemon left and so does my apponent, I'll feel a lot better if his pokemon is asleep.
And if you faint a sleeping pokemon, they don't have a sleeping pokemon anymore, so you can put another to sleep.

Edit:Never read your spam thing Naos. And technically we're debating which move is better for your Milotic. O and editing again, Iron Defense could never hurt your Torkaol.

I know it doesn't count for much but according to richard steel putting someones last pokemon to sleep is the douche thing to do.

I don't think we were spamming, cause you bennifited. Regardless, freeze is kinda dumb, since its SO hard to come by. I wish it was more common. I also say Foretress over Torkoal, what with less weaknesses.

And I say Claydol. All four (Donphan, Torkoal, Foretress, & Claydol) are viable choices you should sit down & decide on. Why hasn't anyone said Starmie? Isn't [she?] A good spinner?

Yea, and that way Chomp with Fire Blast will chomp our team. Chainchomp seems to be a problem for this team

Well, I thought it could do both, but whatever. I suppose it should stick to one thing-sweeping, or spinning. I say sweeping. So Donphan sounds cool, but Torkoal is more original.

actually- i decided NOT to use forretress- i just forgot to RE edit. i have to go pretty soon, but ill put down both donphan and torkoal. I've only recently become accustomed to the competitive battling scenario. and my knowledge of it is strictly hypothetical. what is the chainchomp moveset ? i dont quite remember.
