Linoone....

[DragonairLover]

Can a Linoone be any help at all? Are there any good movesets for it to learn?

 

[deathbyalice]

I would never choose to use Linoone. It may be able to learn Hyper Beam, but that would probably be the only good thing it can learn.

 

[DragonairLover]

Well, I like Linoone's pick-up ability. Do you know of any GOOD pokemon with pick-up ability?

 

[Castrainer]

Linoone @ Choice Band
[+ Attk, - Sp. Attk]
EVs: Maximize attack o__o;;
Extremespeed
Shadow Ball
HP Steel
Aerial Ace

Well... DUH! Its not a good Pkmn...

 

[DragonairLover]

I know Linoone's not good..but it can learn a variety of attacks. Plus, I love the pick-up ability.

 

[AdamHays]

here is an ok moveset.

Rest
Icebeam
Bellydrum
Headbutt

not the greatest out there,but still good!

Well... DUH! Its not a good Pkmn...

WHAT!? linoone can sweep your team if you did just ONE wrong switch or move. It's not even a UU but right on BL.


Linoone- [speed + / sp.atk -] @ salac berry
EV: atk, speed
-extremespeed/flail
-shadow ball
-HP Ground/substitute
-belly drum/flail

Pickup is useful ingame, and in battles Linoone isn't all that bad. Hey it's better than Thyplosion and Feraligatr put together.

Linoone@Leichi Berry
-Substitute
-Belly Drum
-Flail
-Extremespeed

Belly Drum, Substitute, Activate Leichi, Now either Sweep with Extremespeed, or if your HP is low enough flail.

The most destructive, but most narrow moveset for Linoone sadly... =/

It does work. But as mentioned, it's very narrow.

 

[Magic Mike]

It could work though...You dont really need to sub if the opp activates your berry after Belly Drum. Then Extremespeed would be the best bet. IF your're EV training, Dragonair, make sure you split EVs between Attack and Speed. Adamant nature would be nice too.

I would much rather has HP Fight than Ground, atleast if Skarm came out I could do some damage to it.

 

[Toothache]

Yeah, HP Fighting works for Linoone, it's messed over by Ghost types anyway. Or maybe HP Rock for taking out Skarm/other flying types.
