4th Gen Do You Have a Special Pokemon for Catching?

I'm raising my False Swipe Sneasel to a high level before I even consider using it against a Legendary. I got it fairy high-levelled in a trade, so it's been trained since Level 34, deeming it statistically weaker than other Pokémon I have.

I might just breed a new Sneasel, put False Swipe on it and EV it in Attack to ensure it can do the job properly. :p
 
I use crobat for mean look
Bennette that knows frisk and theive incase I want an item like dragon scales from horseas
then use scisior for false swipe
 
I have...

Stantler for Frisking and Thieving
Butterfree to increase chances of finding a Pokemon with an item

(My Shikacho Method)

and I have a Gallade exactly like you do xD but its on me Platinum and IDK where that is...
 
My Scizor and Slowking, work as a pair when I have my main battling team with me. Scizor's False swipe, and Slowking's yawn work together nicely.

But when I'm purposefully going out Pokemon Hunting (for one I specifically want, or a roaming legendary), I bring my Gengar, for it's Mean Look and Hypnosis.
 
I didnt realise Kriketune was so useful. I have scyther for false swipe, polywrath for hypnosis and thief. Will probably keep them though as they are 2 of my favourite pokemon
 
i use lvl 100 scizor with false swipe, but for roamers i use umbreon with mean look/ baton pass and soundproof electrode
 
First Togetic. Togetic's got average Speed and crazy Special Defense for fast Pokemon. Togetic uses Yawn. Pokemon falls asleep. Switch over to Scyther, who then uses 1 of 3 moves depending on the situation. If it's a strong Pokemon who isn't weak to Bug Moves then X-Scissor. If it's a Pokemon who is weak to Bug Moves, then Slash. If it is a really weak Pokemon then False Swipe. Assuming it is the first 2 then I use and extra False Swipe to finish it to 1 HP and asleep. After that the Pokeballs.

Epic Win :P
