-Seed Bomb

Shinbora lvl 33
Lax nature
-Psywave
-Fly
-Air Cutter
-Psybeam


This is my team. From what I noticed, I do not have any Pokemon that can learn an ice type move, making dragon types a little tough to handle. I considered the Vanipeti, but its just so freaking ugly that I don't want to use it.

What pokemon should I use for ice type moves and who do I replace for them?

 

[Perriechu]

Shinbora can actually learn Ice beam, when you can teach it, forget Psywave, since Psybeam pretty much covers Psychic types, then at Lv44 it learns Psychic.

Problem is that the Ice Beam TM is only available after finishing the main plotline, since it's found in the Giant Hole. I need an ice type for the 8th gym and possibly for the Elite Four

 

[Perriechu]

Oh right ~ Well anyway.

You don't really need an Ice type for the last gym. A strong Ground/Flying/Psychic or something else will pretty much deal with Iris/Shaga. The Elite 4 you will need Ghost/Dark/Fighting/Psychic/Flying.

Since Alder (champion) isn't battled until Post-Elite 4 you will have a wider range of moves and such ~

 

[solopy567]

Well I just need something to counter dragon types.

What I noticed is that I can capture Crimgan in the Dragonspiral tower.

So I'm thinking this:
Exchange Gamageroge for Crimgan and teach it surf
Exchange Shinbora for Swanna and teach it Fly and Dive.
I reckon Waterfall will have very very few uses so I can always take some common Pokemon, teach it waterfall and use it for whatever I need like the part before Victory Road, unless I need Waterfall inside the Victory Road as well...That makes things complicated.
What really ruins it is that Crimgan can't learn Fly, cos if it could I could capture a Pururiru, level it up and teach it waterfall and dive

You don't need HM's for the storyline in BW (Only Cut is needed 1 time). If you want something to counter Dragons catch a cubchoo and you should be fine.

Beartic
-Icicle Throw
-Rock Slide
-Brick Break/Super power
-Night Slash (You will have to breed for this just catch a male purrloin and level it up until it learns night slash and breed away)

You can get a water type for ice moves, after all, all except magikarp can learn a ice move

The only Ice move before beating the E4 is blizzard and it is very unreliable. So a water type with Blizzard is not going to do as good as an ice type with a more accurate move.

 

[Heart Gold]

Get the Ice Cream Pokemon. It has decent stats and you'll come to love it after using it. I thought Gyarados was ugly and I wouldn't use it in Platinum but after using it I came to love it and now I think it looks awesome.

If that still won't work then try a Dragon Type to handle the dragons?

Oh and there is also Beartic, but I still recommend the Ice Cream.

 

[Bankaiglade]

I have almost no knowledge of the new pokemon,But...Theres an ice cream pokemon?!?!?!??! Awesome!!!!xD And,i`d use an ice type or water type that can learn ice shard because it hits everytime ! (except when protect or detect is used by the foe)

 

[Pika-power]

I'd use the ice cream pokemon....
