I'm trying to make a pure, weakness-less, dragon team. These are the pokemons i had in mind

Rayquaza - Dragon, Flying - Air lock
Latias - Dragon, Psychic - Levitate
Latios - Dragon, Psychic - Levitate
Altaria - Dragon, Flying - Natural Cure
Flygon - Dragon, Ground - Levitate
Salamence - Dragon, Flying - Intimidate
Kingdra - Dragon, Water - Swift Swim
Dragonite - Dragon, Flying - Inner Focus

Some of you might say that using only 1 pokemon type is a nono... I know that. That's why I made this thread, to discuss the pro's and con's of this dragon team and how to improve it :P

Let me know what you think and help me achive my goal as a pure Dragon Tamer ^^;;

Please Consider:
EV Training
Pokemon Nature
Essential Moves (Offensive/Defensive)

PS: I didnt put this into the simple discussion thread because i think I've asked too much and it may turn out to be a discussion thread +)

...you forgot Dragonite

and well...you're just using too many legends, as a dragon trainer

myself, I consider the legendaries CHEAP...sorry

I know there aren't enough to make a 6 member team, so um...double up.

I always use 2 flygon 'cuz it's fast and can be both a physical and special

sweeper...despite it's crap amount of weaknesses.

I do like that all your pokemon team here are actual dragons though.

a lot of people seem to think that many pokemon like charizard and aerodactyl

count as dragons simply because they're part of the breeding group...

*Checks serebii.net* Ahh, and I thought I couldn't get Dragonite into my Emerald =P Now to look for an fr/lg friend ^^ Thanks for correcting me! *Edits post*

That list of dragon pokemon is not my final team, im just listing all dragon typed pokemons out

I used to use Aerodactyl and Charizard. But now im making a Dragon Typed team =)

I think this should be moved to Pokmon GB Strategies & Movesets
Err think so, but I'm more focused on Emerald pokemons. Anyway, if I'm wrong could someone move it pweese? Thanks

Altough it might sound stupid, a Shelgon might be an interesting addition.
Since it has Rock Head, it can keep using Double Edge without any recoil....

[email protected]"Something"
[Careful] to raise SpDef a bit.
Attack: 252 EV
Agility: 6EV
HP: 252 EV

Double-Edge
Brick Break
Aerial Ace
Rock Slide

I'm not sure if the EV distribution is any good, but since Shelgon is slow, and it's SpDef is low too, I guessed that it'll be better off as a full-attcker who attacks a few times then dies.

Kingdra (F) @ Lum Berry/Cheri Berry/Leftovers

EVs: 129 Def / 129 Spd / 252 SAtk
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Hidden Power [Grass]

RD and sweep. This is what I used when I had it on my NB team. Berries for paralysis since it gets screwed pretty badly without the speed.

dragon dance
fireblast

Dragonite[rash]@leftovers
EVs - at least 240 Sp,200SpAtt,100 Att and rest in hp
ice beam
thunderbolt
focus punch
substitute

Flygon[jolly]@choice band
EVs - max Att and Sp
earthquake
rockslide
HP bug <-return if u can't get it

I think Rain Dancing Kingdra in a dragon team isn't such a good idea.
If Kingdra faints and it's still raining, the opponent might get a Water type out which has Swift Swim.
And since most Water types have Ice Beam on them...

I think you can guess the rest.

Thanks a bunch guys, that really helps. Btw what's HP bug/flying?

It means "Hidden Power bug/Flying. And good luck on your Dragon team. Im thinking of making a pure fire team. :P Is this team for competitive or for in game battling?

That won't be much of a problem as long as Kamahi has something that can hurt water types. Only about six Pokemon with Swift Swim have enough base Sp. Atk. to OHKO a Dragon with a 4X Ice weakness (without crit. or hax), according to NB's damage calc.

I like this one. Make "something" a Choice Band too.

Hmm... I might need lightning attacks then... But I dont think it would fit in

Use the Dragonite moveset that Ice gave you. You can also try to catch the ones that share a Rock+Water type on the switch or some predicting with FP. Either Salamence moveset from kohei or Ice would work as well if you've used DD...I think...

Meh... o_o;;

Well its NOT a Double UP..if you look at the secondary Effects...

Drangon Breath.... to Paralyze...(30%)
(and plays nice against grass/ghost etc....)

Dragon Claw ...straight damage..with a 80/100...

The only double up would BE...Thunder Wave & Dragon Breath,which I'm saying One or the Other not Both!

Negative.
It most definitely doesn't work like that.
thunderwave > dragonbreath
dragon claw > dragonbreath
so dragonbreath shud never be used.And yes it still is a double up.

and in the end the dragonite moveset i posted above is still the best.
