Moveset Update Help Please?

[Hatchetball]

I need to update my Emerald teams moveset, since I just transfered them to Diamond. Can someone help me?

For Held Items, I put none, because I need to know what they should hold.

Starmie @ None

Ampharos @ None

Nature - Rash

---------------------------------
I also need a little help with EV/IV training my Shiny Croagunk

I'm wondering what the best EV's are to give it, where to train, what moves I should teach it. Also I'm not sure what it should be. Compared to my current team, I dont know if I should make it Special Sweeper, Wall, etc.

Currently it looks like this:
Shiny Croagunk(Male) @ None, yet.
Ability: Anticipaion
Nature: Impish
-Pursuit
-Faint Attack
-Revenge
-Swagger
------------
Stats:
HP: 60
Attack: 41

Sp. Atk: 36
Sp. Def 24
Speed: 30
___________
It is untrained. Just got it.

Can someone help please?

Edits in bold for you right there...

 

[Hatchetball]

Thanks,
However...
1. Ampharos @ Calm/Modest <--- That is not a held item...
2. Its a little late for nature changing, of course I am breeding them and will have new natures in the future, I am asking for help with the current natures...
3. Most of them are level 99/100 already, so spending all that time changing the natures is not what I want to do at the moment.
EDIT: 4. Why would I change a Sub-Bolt-Punch Ampharos, for Focus Blast? O_o
Also, no help for Croagunk? ..Anyone?

 

[Faceless*]

You could run CB Sucker Punch on your future Toxicroak, or you could Scarf, or Substituting Toxicroak

 

[Hatchetball]

Its not going to be a Toxicroak...
I would just use the Shiny Toxicroak I have if I wanted to, but I don't want to use Toxicroak, Croagunk is under used and someone should use it. (Guess I'm the only one who wants to...)
Also, for future posts in this thread please, ...type like human beings...
I can understand societys need for simplifying, but for god sake, just spell it out.
"Slang" or not, just put it in terms everyone can understand what your saying.
(Not to sound like a jerk, I'm just tired of this slang crap I get everytime I ask a simple questions, its annoying googling ignorant usages of abbreviations >.>)

 

[Faceless*]

You think I'm being ignorant? Let me spell out CB for you then, C-H-O-I-C-E B-A-N-D

and seeing how you would say Croagunk is under-used, you have just proven to be a novice at the game, Toxicroak is Under-used

 

[Hatchetball]

What the hell? I wasn't referring to you as being ignorant O_o just the overuse of abbreviations.
Novice? I play for 10 years and I'm a novice...? What ever you think, thats your opinion.
Yes, Toxicroak is another "under-used" pokemon, as is Croagunk... I never said it wasn't.
Its not like I don't know what CB (Choice Band) means... Seeing countless abbreviations is just annoying.
You don't have to get all offended by my opinion and then give me yours in hope of offending me for your own self graditude. Be mature. >.>

At the moment, you comment does make it appear that you are indeed ignorant...

Can someone who knows what they are doing answer my request?

 

[Anti]

For the record JimmyRay, Starmie is OHKOed by very little and Focus Sash is really a terrible item for it. Same with Dragonite...and if you worry about ice attacks, yache berry ;)

CB is Choice Band, Scarf is Choice Scarf...yeah. Name is a good player, let's not have this erupt into total chaos.

However, the team isn't very good. Nothing can take a physical hit, and any physical threat with a choice Scarf will 6-0 (basically destroy) your entire team. Special Sweepers (the good ones) will do the same thing, even to more sturdy pokemon like Gardevoir.

Common sweepers like CBtar (Choice Band Tyranitar), Garchomp, Gengar, Alakazam, and Heracross will mow down this team, pretty much uncontested.

Also, Nuetral Natures are really bad. Since WiFi sets levels to 100, you won't have to worry about training. You WILL have to worry about breeding, that's just a truth of the game. You HAVE to rebreed, not just for good natures, but for good IVs (individual values).

With no walls, this team will be stalled and promptly destroyed.

Physical moves on Gengar is also a no-no, unless it's McGar (SkarmBliss killing Gengar set with subpunching).

Also, for future reference, post what the team WILL look like, not what is looks like at the current time. That helps a lot more.

I suggest going to Serebii and/or Smogon to sharpen this team up a bit, the movesets, natures, etc. show a lack of understanding of some basics.

Also, if you don't know about EVs (seeing as none were posted), you'll want to read up on those as well. Smogon and Serebii...

 

[Hatchetball]

Yet again, wtf.
I know how to breed an all that. I'm not asking for that. Moveset, thats it. These get alternated with my actual team. I know I still have to breed these, thats why I want a moveset O_O ...
Yet AGAIN, I know about EV/IV's, I am just not sure what to make of this Croagunk, I assume wall with Toxic-like attacks.
I didn't ask how to beat these 6, I know my flaws. Like I said, these get alternated in and out of my team. Though, I do enjoy the critisism, nicely put.

I asked for help on the Croagunk because Serebii does not state what the proper IV/EV's to give it are. And Smogon is useless. (I have no idea what to give it, because I'm not much of a "Poison" type trainer, which is why I ask...)

Smogon and Serebii don't give proper detailing, they don't say which EV's to train, they just give a layout, you input your information, and they give a read out, which gives false information 50% of the time...

Just cause' I don't "hang" around these forums all day you all take me for a novice, and thats pretty lame. I ask for help and get told I'm doing things wrong O_o Last time I checked I was just asking for a tad bit of help with a moveset update.

Don't explain how what kills what, I'm not stupid, I have my EV's set properly and what you say kills them sadly doesn't (right away lol) >.>

Thanks for the useless information that I already knew. If you would like to ...help that would be appriciated.

Seriously, a Heracross? "Mow" my whole team down? Thats insulting -_-

Like I said last time. Would someone who knows what they are doing help me out here >.>
Or at least answer what I am asking.
Asking for movesets, possibly natures, and items, not information I already know.

 

[Kirioroshi]

So what Iv's does your Croagank have?

 

[Hatchetball]

None at the moment. Freshly caught.

 

[Archer]

None at the moment. Freshly caught.

~LemonLiceTea said IVs.

~Smogon is far from useless.

~All these people know what they are doing

~Croakgunk is not UU it is NFE

~Impish is a bad nature for a Sweeper especially if you intend to make it a spec sweeper.

~Abbreviations are commonly used on Forums, please learn to tolerate them.

Thankyou.

 

[Hatchetball]

Already stated current IV's in the first post.
HP: 60
Attack: 41
Defense: 31
Sp. Atk: 36
Sp. Def 24
Speed: 30
My bad, thought that said EV's O_o

UU, NFE, what ever >.> doesn't mean it can't be trained. Maybe I like Croagunk... geeesh.

 

[Kirioroshi]

obviously you don't know what IV's are. I think you should revise your research data.

Lol. Iv's range from 0-31.

 

[Hatchetball]

Wow,
You are some of the dumbest people I have ever seen post, ever.
You offer help, yet it is useless. You tell ME I don't know what I'm doing when I'm just asking a few questions, yet you don't answer those questions and ***** about what I am asking.

Shut the hell up about EV's and IV's. I know those. MOVESET, thats IT, thats ALL I want. Diamond and Pearl's moves are ALOT diffrent from Emerald's moves. Maybe I don't wanna give my pokes the wrong moves? Yeah, wouldn't that suck in wifi? Yeah, it would. Sure I can goto the failure sites Serebii and Smogon. Will they tell me which moves are best for each Pokemon? No. Will they tell me how many EV's I need in a specific stat? No. Will they tell me what the best move set is for the pokemon I battle with? No. I come here and get THIS **** for asking some questions. No respect what-so-ever. I get stupid responses, false information, and just all-around dumbasses asking questions that DON'T matter.

Good luck with your sad little community of morons, children, and ignorant overuse of abbreviations.

You all have slowed down the progress of all mankind.

Might as well just delete this post. -_- ...stupid little kids

 

[Angelic Diablo]

Seriously, a Heracross? "Mow" my whole team down? Thats insulting -_-

You have never experienced a true Heracross if you take it so lightly. Heracross is a very deadly pokemon when used correctly (by a person, not a computer player)

Also, learn to take critism, your the one who has no idea what your doing and insulting people who try and help

 

[GeneralGuy]

Wow,
You are some of the dumbest people I have ever seen post, ever.

I am laughing, considering that everyone who has posted in this topic (including me) knows more about competitive battling than you'll ever know.

You offer help, yet it is useless. You tell ME I don't know what I'm doing when I'm just asking a few questions, yet you don't answer those questions and ***** about what I am asking.

The help we're offering is approved by Smogon, so don't go ranting about help. You just refuse to accept it.

Shut the hell up about EV's and IV's. I know those. MOVESET, thats IT, thats ALL I want. Diamond and Pearl's moves are ALOT diffrent from Emerald's moves. Maybe I don't wanna give my pokes the wrong moves? Yeah, wouldn't that suck in wifi? Yeah, it would.

Just so you know, EVs and IVs are just as important. Also, people have already suggested movesets.

Sure I can goto the failure sites Serebii and Smogon.

You are definitely a novice for saying that.

Will they tell me which moves are best for each Pokemon? No. Will they tell me how many EV's I need in a specific stat? No. Will they tell me what the best move set is for the pokemon I battle with? No. I come here and get THIS **** for asking some questions. No respect what-so-ever. I get stupid responses, false information, and just all-around dumbasses asking questions that DON'T matter.

These suggestions are approved by Smogon. If you want to lose, then so be it. You won't get very far at all in competitive battling.

Good luck with your sad little community of morons, children, and ignorant overuse of abbreviations.

lol, you are refusing to accept our suggestions. That shows your ignorance, hypocite.

Please read post below. Thank you.

i will caulate your iv's if you like , also you never raise a pokemon without knowing it's IV's , it is a waste of effort seeing as if they suck then your pokemon will suck , also you gave your croagunk's stats ....

You use one of these , then use rare candy trick (you see if your pokemon has right nature (one you want) then save game , then use rare candy , copy stats into iv calculator , then keep doing this process untill level 20 or or more , it's based on your prefences .

also i have played since first 151 , until a year ago i was a novice ...
