Alternative to Swords Dance?

[beca]

-facepalm-
I spent ages attempting to get an Aerodactyl with Swords Dance, only to find out that Aerodactyl can't inherit this move (that'll teach me to do my research in future). Is there an alternative attack-boosting move that Aerodactyl is able to learn? Thanks in advance for the help =]

No, Aerodactyl can't learn any Attack boosting moves besides Curse, which is bad since it lowers its Speed. You shouldn't use Aerodactyl as a sweeper anyways. It's best used as a Stealth Rock lead.

Also, you should try asking this in the right thread.

Ah, thanks for the help =]
& sorry x_x I thought topics like this were okay in the moveset section. Where shall I post these topics, for future reference?

Bulk Up is an alternative... it'll help you survive priority moves and continue your sweep in the face of such dangers.

I would say just go with a 252 Attack/252 Speed Life Orb sweeper if you are wanting a sweeping Aero. Yeah, it won't be a prominent force, as it is better suited for Stealth Rocks, but it is still a force for an unprepared team.

Bulk Up would be great if Aerodactyl could actually learn it! :tired:
