Due to the increasing amount of threads being made asking for help with their teams, I've decided a thread like this would help out, rather then just closing all of the new threads.

Basically, you can post here asking for help with your teams from any of the Advance Generation games (R/S/E/FR/LG). This is not a thread to have your team rated, but simply asking for help with choosing a Pokémon to have or a move to learn, things like that.

All the teams posted in this thread must be for in-game use only, so no competitive teams or anything like that can be posted here, but rather in the S&M forum.

And just a note to those who are helping out, most people who post in this thread for help aren't going to want to breed an entirely new Pokémon or EV train or anything, so try to avoid suggestions like that, thanks :]

Ok, so i'm about to restart firered. I have my team all figured out except for one spot.

Venusaur
Rhydon

I need a pokemon for the last spot.

Also, if i do use this team when i start, i don't get any pokemon until i'm a ways into the game.

I restarted my Fire Red, and already have a basic sketch of what my team will be. This is just for in game use...

Blastoise
Surf
Earthquake
Ice Beam
Bite

Fearow (I don't like Pidgeots!)
Drill Peck
Return
Steel Wing
Hyper Beam (I don't usually use 2 of one type, but I don't want to hidden power it)

Arcanine
Flamethrower/Overheat (I plan on buying the TM Flamethrower in Celadon)
Aerial Ace
Iron Tail
Extremespeed

Electubuzz/Jolteon/Magneton (no Moveset made yet)

And that's all I can think of right now. Yes I know there will be 2 Pokemon weak to electric and 2 pokemon weak to ground, but oh well
Uh, in a house.

O.K,

in Pokemon LeafGreen, here is my "Team in the Making"

1. Blissey
Moves:
Heal Bell
Thunder Wave
Seismic Toss
Softboiled

2. Togetic
Seismic Toss
Softboiled
Counter
Thunder Wave

3. Clefable
Thunderbolt
Ice Beam
Thunder Wave
Softboiled

4. Wigglytuff
Seismic Toss
Surf
Thunder Wave
Wish



All moves in red are the moves that i need help with.

You see, i can only teach these moves once but I need them more than once.

Thunder Wave: Blissey, Togetic, Clefable, Wigglytuff

Seismic Toss: Blissey, Togetic, Wigglytuff

Softboiled: Togetic, Clefable

Can you give me any chain breedings or anything I can do to teach each of my Pokemon their specific ovesets>

It will be greatly appreciated!

it should, but make sure the male pokemon can learn no level up moves, and save prior to breeding
For example: get male clefable, and female clefable, save, run around a teach tutor moves to the male, then put both in daycare, if egg hatches with the egg moves, then you are safe, and you can save, just be careful

If he is in the daycare, and he reaches a level that he learns a move, then he forgets one move and replaces it with another, you could lose your move tutor moves

oops, my bad, if you use clefable, he has no level up moves, so you will be safe if you use him

I don't think that tutor moves can be bred.

That being said, keep Toss and T-Wave on Blissey. There is no better normal-type special wall.

I'd say to give Softboiled to Clefable. Togetic just doesn't seem to have anything resembling a purpose on that team. Counter is nice, but not on an underpowered Blissey.


As always, thank you, PC'ers, for tolerating the crap that comes out of my mouth.

any move that is learnable by the offspring and known by the father pokemon can be passed down, so this should include tutor moves

You can't breed tutor moves. Period.

At ^ poster: The baby can learn them, but only through tutoring. If a father knows calculus, and a son could learn calculus, but he needs a tutor to do so, is the son born knowing calculus? Nope.

Was that second word supposed to be 'can't?' The first and second half of that post were rather contradictory.

EDIT: He wanted me to edit the word in bold from 'can' to 'can't' so that he doesn't seem like an idiot.

Jlizard, are you saying I can breed a Male Clafable with a Female Wigglytuff and the Igglybuff learns the tutored move that clefable knows?
Oh my god no. I'm saying the opposite.

and @ChronicEdge: Hahahah, yes it was. Thank you for pointing that out. I'll edit it now, and I hope you don't mind me asking you to edit my quote so I don't look like an idiot =p

No problem.

Oh, and that calculus metaphor was beautiful, by the way.

WWW- Like I said before, if you want to use Togetic, don't give him Softboiled. If you really want a Togetic with T Wave, it's better to just egg move one in D/P/P. :/
