In order to question Grant, i've decided to make a Thread to do so.

a. Why would you try to make a Sp.Sweeper a Physical Sweeper?
b. Nerfing Down Ubers by giving them a bad moveset and Bad Individual Values, when most people like to make their pokemon stronger is just plain wrong.

Section II: newbies section.
a. What are physical or sp.sweepers? They are pokemon with a unusually high speed, and either a good Pure Attacking base stats, or a good Pure sp. Attacking base stats. And also, they usually tend to have a good movepool of Physical or Sp. Sweeping attacks. Their Job, is to get rid of the opposing trainers pokemon as quick as possible, however, their are Will-o-wisper's or Walls that stop them from playing their Role.

b. What are walls? again, these are pokemon with a unusally high Def stats. The exact opposite of Attacking. they also usually have Will-o-Wisp like said above, Toxic, Thunder Wave, Hypnosis, and the likes.

c. Iv's/Individual Values, Links are useful, i'm assuming. So here, http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?t=105223 That link will also explain what Ev's and dv's are.

d. What's a moveset? Put simply, a Pokemon with 4 good moves/attacks.

e. What are roles? There are various rules, such as Phazer, A pokemon like Skarmory, who spikes and whirwind's them away. Physical and Sp.sweepers? See section II a. Tanks, Tanks A pokemon who defends ageisnt attacks, as well as Attack with their own variety of moves. A good example of this is Rhyperior, A pokemon in dp. http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/464.shtml Spiker/Stealth Rocker, Put in simple words, A pokemon with both Whirlwind and/or Stealth rock in their movepool. A good example of this is Skarmory. http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/227.shtml If there is anything i've missed, please inform me, and I will put you in my credits list below, which requires me to edit my post and add the thing I missed.

Section III: Credits. Me atm, if anyone posts in this Thread, and tells me to add, then like said above, I will add it and put you in my credits section.

Even if it does weaken an Uber, it's sometimes good to give Pokemon even if their stats are lower on that side, a different move for anti-walls. Mixed sweepers usually end up the best, as I use every single one of them in my team.

Even if *Mewtwo* is being argued with at Grant's thread, O_O Sometimes it is a good idea to give it ONE attack move for wall breaking purposes


O yeah, I'd also like to point this was more of a guide then a questioning thread :D
