What's a decent moveset for a Quiet Manaphy? I know it's not the most ideal nature, but that was the only Manaphy I was able to get my hands on.

I hope you realise that Starmie won't be OHKOing Milotic with TBolt.

Max SAtk Modest Specs Starmie does 71.90% - 84.89% to a Min HP/SDef Milotic.

Wait a minute, wait a minute. You go to D_A for Vileplume advice? D_A? Are you mad? D_A is not the Plume mastah, hell, he lieks Waluigi. If that's not sad, I don't know what is.

Now, I have a question. I am breeding Snorlax (or Munchlax, whatever), and I am using this set

[email protected]
Nature:Careful/Sassy
Rest
Sleep Talk
Body Slam
Crunch
EV:244 HP, 20 Def, 236 Sp.Def

Now, I am having trouble getting my hands on a Careful Ditto. Could I just use a Sassy nature with this Lax? Sure, I'm not gonna use Fire Blast, but still, Snorlax doesn't use Speed much at all, so I could afford to use that nature, rite? I mean, if I can't get my hands on a Careful, Sassy would do, right?

AND WE CANNOT HELP YOUI IF YOU DON'T WANT TO USE EGG MOVES.

Caps for max effect.

What do you mean, you don't need egg moves, all you want is help? We aren't "giving you egg moves, but as D_A said, most of his moves are from eggs. If you won't bother to get that, we won't bother to help.I would, to be honest, as what you want to do is your big, if you don't want egg moves, I 'll give you a set anyway, no matter how fail it is (as you are asking for it), but people like Apostle won't even waste their time onthose request, with good reason.

That said, all of Ttars attacks a bred, no exceptions.

Very cute. The next time you go out of your way to prove someone wrong, at least know what you are talking about. It'll only backfire, hard.

Those are pretty terrible moves on their own. Iron Tail? Brick Break? Aerial Ace? GRASS KNOT? The thing that ties those moves together are the breeding moves, like Pursuit, or Dragon Dance. It is TOO SLOW to try with Swords Dance. Charge up turn one, get OHKO'ed turn two. CB has the weakness of getting switched out on, which is why Pursuit is there. Ice Fang & Avalance are jokes. So is Shadow Claw.

EDIT:AHA, DA BEAT MEH.

Didn't know it lacks Swords Dance.

Sure, although he really doesn't need "max" HP.

I use Leech Seed. In fact, I have no idea how you didn't know my love for all things Plume.

Look at my RMT thread "Fixing up the weakness" for my Vileplume set.

And lastly, I need a poke that can counter the current teams major weaknesses.. hopefully with good sp. def because thats what I'm lacking but still a good attack set since I'm only battling in game. I was thinking of a Camerupt, but they have so many weaknesses.. and the defense makes it easy to kill.

Any suggestions?

no one has any advice for me?

Idk, but you're better off with Milotic. Cloyster has a big time weakness in its Spec. Def, and Milotic is very resilient (depending on moveset and strategy really).


But I have a question for you guys. What's the best moveset for a Alakazam? This is what I have so far:
[ Note: Idc about the natures really]
Alakazam (Hady)
Sp. att: 209 (Almost done with Spec.att EV)
Level: 59

Calm Mind
Psychic
Energyball
Shadow ball

Or should I just switch to a Bronzong/Espeon?

When you look at Espeon, statwise, she looks like Gengar with a little more HP and MUCH more Special Defense. Then you find out her special movepool is crap.

Well, with your Alakazam, replace Energy Ball with HPFighting/Focus Blast. That way he's not completely walled by Dark types, and actually has something with which to fight back against Tyranitar. If Weavile gets in safely, though, you're screwed.

Alakazam will do well with a Timid nature, which lets him outspeed Timid Starmie and Gengar, among other things. Modest Alakazam maxes out at 405 SPATK, but he won't be fast enough to outspeed Gengar, which is crucial.

Azelf is also a solid choice. Here's my personal favorite:

Azelf @ Life Orb
Naive (+SPD, -SPDEF)
36 ATK/252 SPATK/220 SPD
Psychic
Flamethrower
Explosion
U-Turn/Grass Knot

I personally use U-Turn, but use Grass Knot if you're in need of a way to take down Tyranitar. I U-Turn once Azelf's out, to scout out what the enemy Azelf counter is (not to mention hitting enemy Weavile).

Only problem with Focus Blast is the low accuracy behind it. But thanks. :)

Another one:

Would it be wise to use Bronzong AND Dusknoir in the team for Battle tower Wi-fi?
