choice band

[fattypen]

and sorry i got a question regarding choice band. does the 1.5 times physical bonus apply only on the first time u send the pokemon with choice band attached out? or does it apply everytime u send it out?

anyone have a detail explanation of how it exactly works?

Choice Band adds a continous x1.5 to any physical attack you use.:D

 

[husk1442]

it multplies your attack stat by1.5 to not the actual move

That's what I ment, but looking at my post again, my wording is all mesed up.

oh ok.. but u are stuck with tat attk unles u switch rite -.-

 

[? Bleep ?]

Yes, that is true... but it works well with some madly powerful pokemon... some... think of a choice banded explosion 2v2 team... ouch.

wow! can somehow imagine tat O.o

erm wanna ask what Evs would be good for snorlax...

Snorlax
Trait: Thick Fat
EVs: 156 HP / 176 Atk / 136 Def / 42 SDef
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)


Some people list more SDef but, with rest I think it works fine

or

Snorlax
Trait: Thick Fat
EVs: 156 HP / 42 Atk / 136 Def / 176 SDef
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)

Atk and SDef Evs are switched from the first one.

Now it gets 330 SDef and with its 500 HP its tanking like a pro. Also gets 200 Def and 266 Atk.


BTW first set is for non-curselax second is for curselax

snorlax also works well as a subpuncher, don't forget.
