4th Gen 2 Questions

[alaner]

1.) Besides Horn Drill, what else attack are 1 Hit KO
2.) is there a TM for LockDown? (For any move that 100% wont miss next turn)

There's a couple more but all I can remember at this time is Fissure. As for lockdown I haven't seen any TM for it and I have most of the TMs. I suggest you check serebii.net for the TMs and HMs.

1. As mentioned above, Fissure. Another is Sheer Cold.
2. No there isn't a TM for LockDown. Unless you're meaning something else, as I don't recall a move called LockDown.

I take it you want these moves so you can have a combo of a never miss move, and a OHKO move, am I right? BAD stradegy, every normal person would switch out, so don't bother.

naw dats not da combo.
nice try tho

If your Pokemon are well-trained enough you can OHKO Pokemon with normal moves, instead of unreliable moves like Horn Drill or Fissure, which only have a 30% chance of working. My Gallade's Close Combat OHKOd half of many people's teams, and my Metagross and Empoleon have both OHKOd entire teams each.

To list all of them in one post, the OHKO moves are Horn Drill, Guillotine, Fissure, and Sheer Cold. The first two are Normal, the third is Ground, and the last is Ice.

There is no Lock-On TM. Check the SPP Pokédex for a list of Pokémon that learn it by egg or level up.

 

[Myzou]

Guillotine, Sheer Cold, Fissure, and Horn Drill are the only 4 I believe...

Destiny Bond could also be theoratically called a OHKO move, altought it requires certain conditions to be met.

Mirror Coat too has always massacred me. I don't even know what the move does and I hate it. Every time it actually does hit it seems to OHKO me.

But yeah, Lock-On/OHKO move is a bad strategy for competitive play. In game it works fine, since the AI is too stupid to switch out. But for out of game play, you could make better use of those two move slots.

LOL, grace grace grace, as a fellow trainer I expected you to know what mirror coat does, it's a must for Milotic, it is like counter but for special moves, so it gives back double what it is dealt.

Thats why wobuffet is so uber!

Any paranoid person would.

(And just to add more to my post)
Using lock on and a one hit KO move is the kind of obvious strategy that works now because people are likely to think "Oh man there's no way he's going to try something that stupid." :D

Eh? There's no prediction involved for Lock-On/OHKO... it goes something like this:

"Skarmory used Drill Peck!
You used Lock-On!

Oh crap, Skarmory, come back!
Go Metagross!

Your OHKO Attack missed!
Metagross used Meteor Mash!

You've been pwned by Metagross!"

It's that simple. :-)

On a lighter subject, is there any sentence in any Pokemon game that doesn't end in an exclamation mark?? Haha
