MILOTIC IS NOT A SPECIAL SWEEPER... I WILL EAT YOU IF YOU TURN IT INTO ONE!

Milotic@Leftovers
Trait: Marvel Scale
Nature: Bold
EVs: 252 HP / 172 Defense / 80 Special Defense
- Surf
- Icebeam
- Hypnosis
- Recover

Standard Milotic - it works very well.

Skarmory@Leftovers
Trait: Keen Eye
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Defense / 4 Attack
- Spikes
- Whirlwind
- Toxic
- Drill Peck

Consider adding in Ninjask to your team if you're gonna use Absol or Heracross

I like the idea of having Milotic with hypnosis. So i will change it. But if i added rest to skarmory his main attack would be Drill Peck? And it would make him more of an Annoyer, which is okay with me. Ill considered that.
Thanks for the help.

Ninjask on this team will do wonders. Seeing that Heracross and Absol have a low speed.

Without Ninjask - they will probably lose instantly. Ninjask needs this team.

EDIT: Skarmory needs Whirlwind more than Rest - Rest is optional - WHIRLWIND IS NEEDED.

If I added a Ninjask, which pokemon would I take out? And what would his position be? I would assume, looking at his moves that he would be a baton passer, but thats just my thought.
Thanks for the help, this is the first time ive ever done this. :)

About Skarmory: If i added whirlwind, is it still possible to have drill peck? Since they are both egg moves?

Hits everything in the game for at least neutral damage therefore Aerial Ace isnt needed.


Heracross - @Choice Band
Brick Break
Rock Slide
Megahorn
Pursuit/Sleep Talk


Absorb sleep ad pwn with sleep talk, or kill Gengar and the like on the switch with pursuit, its up to you

Milotic - @Leftovers
Toxic
Ice Beam
Surf
Recover


Good, but in 3rd gen Toxic> Hypnosis, however this is reversed in 4th gen

Absol- Physical Sweeper (2)
Swords Dance
Perish Song
Shadow Ball
Iron Tail/Bite/Slash

I have no idea, but this isnt really good in 3rd gen

Skarmory- @Leftovers
Spikes
Roar
Rest

Drill Peck

Claydoll- @Leftovers
Reflect/Rapid Spin
Light Screen/Rapid Spin
Earthquake
Ice beam/Explosion


Psychic has Horrible type coverage

I need help figuring out items and also if you could, help with movesets, or even, if i need help me change around my Pokemon.
This is for pokemon Ruby. Thanks :)
Changes are in bold, take out Absol and put in a special wall such as Blissey, also you dont need Claydol and Milotic, as both are dual walls and in their place get a special sweeper.


EDIT: Ive put on the items for you

Okay, so i've updated most of the new movesets, and pokemon. I'm just missing a special sweeper, does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.
Maybe something like Starmie, or Gardevoir?

I like the idea of Manetric, i'll think about some other canidates aswell. The reason i put agaility on ninjask was because some of my team is lacking in speed, and i could use it to help up their speed with baton pass, not to help ninjask.

But the reason for having Ninjask is to take advantage of his Speed Boost ability, which boosts his speed one stage every turn. Since that boost can be BP'ed, why would you need Agility?

Last time I checked, everyone else gave 3rd Generation movesets except Lumine. Think before you post.

Manectric is more useful in 4th Gen - it can learn Overheat ;D

Get a heal beller so you can abuse rest...or something that can learn wish and replace rest with substitute.

I guess you guys are right about the agility. I didn't know he had a speed boost. I have a question about baton pass, does the move only pass the stat that occured before i used baton pass or does it pass on the stat changes after aswell?

Could you rephrase the question? Watch out for intimidaters like Mence...EVIL. You BP drops in stats too, if that's what you mean.

Baton Pass lets the user switch out 0.0

Lets say you use Swords Dance - then Baton Pass.
The pokemon who comes to the playing field first gets the Swords Danced effect.

Thats what i thought. But is it possible to, lets say, use swords dance twice then baton pass and still get the same effect of 2 swords dance's?
Sorry i didnt phrase my question correctly before.
