Do you rely on Haxxy moves?

    Pretty self-explanatory.
    Dou you use strategies that include maybe Double Team or Confusion, or like to abuse Serene Grace with Pokemon like Togekiss or Jirachi for flinching enemies to death (probably the safest of all these strategies), or do you like going safer ways to achieve victory?

    For myself, i mostly seem to have bad luck with most of these strategies, haxxy moves don't really work for me, so i prefer going with safer strategies.


    Oh, and i first wanted to call this "Do you rely on Hax", that's why the H is unintentionally capitalized
     
    Not particularly, but I don't avoid them like the plague like some players do. I'm torn between hating Metronome and loving it.
     
    I avoid them like the plauge they are.:P Using these kinds of moves lessens your control of the battle; you begin to depend on that small chance that everything will go the way you've planned. This is why I use things like Yawn and Surf that have perfect accuracy.

    This is especially true in the Battle Tower, where the odds seem unusually tipped toward the AI. When Stone Edge misses three times, yet the AI's Sheer Cold hits on the first try, you begin to hate inaccurate or "lucky" moves.
     
    I wouldn't call them haxxy moves, but for example my blissey has bolt&beam, and she doesn't have Serene Grace. So if there's a situation where neither can get a supereffective hit, I just use ice beam since I like freezing people better than paralyzing.
