Need help with team

u's all better be wrong about the perfect teams. cos it doesnt NEVER let uber pokemon allowed.... u can never have ur dream team EVER.

whats the catch here? i've tried all the posted teams but my team rating does not rise from 59% neither decrease. i cant seem to defeat anyone either... whats wrong with my netbattle machine?

i agree about using the GBAs to battle. but where i am im the only guy in the neighbourhood who really PLAYS the gba properly... or has a good team. the kid down the block has really weak pokemon and isnt any challenge. i defeated him loadsa times with my first team that i posted.
 
The team rating number is rather useless... as it looks a lot at the total stats of all the Pokemon. If you see any team higher than 62%, MASSIVE OU is in store, and perhaps 1 or even more legendaries. Mass ubars result in 80%+.

Can't seem to defeat anyone? What do you mean?
 
i made an all offensive.... sorta... team and got 62%. i made an all uber now.. hehe 82% yay!!

i'll post the 62% soon.

im not winning meaning.. i dont win.... what other meanings are there?
 
Note to Toothy: The original Netbattle had a randomizer, so you'd sit there and create a pokemon, and keep rerolling its stats until you get a good DV. Public outcry. Changed to the system we have now, that is on par with RSbot/GSbot

Lance:
Netbattle allows you to use ubers, it's individual servers which don't.

Also, you may be losing because you're not a very good battler, or your team could use work. One of the two always apply.
 
make that the first reason. coolboyman the hacker kicked my @$$ yesterday with a 62% team when i used my 82% uber team.... but it was only cos i didnt give enough evs for speed to my pokemon.... Salac Berry dont work either...
 
Salacs only activate when your hp is below 25% you know... (hence why you need 4 sub to activate a berry, not just 3 sub like what SPP claims to be, activating at 1/3 hp... perhaps that's true for gameboy? But for balance's sake perhaps, NB took below 25% to activate the berry)

Plus, there are many times where something with a low percentage wins against something higher... Ever watched Kangaskan sweep 3 Pokemon, then Quagsire + Clefable destroying the rest of the OU team? =D
 
sure kangashkhan's a great pokemon. its only wipeout is by fighting types... Clefable all fattened up in stats its great too. same by fighting types. and quagsire would need a grass pokemon. ... ive seen kanga's destroying teams all the time.... but quags and clefs are unbelieaveable.
 
Wha...? How are they unbelievable? O.o; Kangaskan dooms Crobat/Aerodactyl/Dugtrio easily... early bird rest makes it hard for the opponent too if they can't swords dance or dragon dance. Quagsire has always been a pure evil Pokemon. High hp and decent defense makes things difficult especially with counter, and yawn forcing switches for focus punch and disabling. Clefable is just a miracle calm minding tank with self heal.

However, Subpunch Gengar > all 3 together =/
Kangaskan and Quagsire can't hit it, and Clefable gets slaughtered by focus punch... Kangaskan can learn shadow ball, but I just didn't take it... guess I can consider that, but that means dropping my only fighting attack on the whole team too for another shadow ball user...? (Other shadow ball user is Yanma, who's slower than Gengar anyway)
 
shadow ball has only 80 base attack how can u keep it on? i just saw that crobat is horribly weak in GSC. it cant learn slugebomb or... shadow ball. how come?

if i go with another pokemon for ur trio like dusclops. i THINK it can learn both sunny day and solarbeam. that goes for quagsire and maybe a good seismic toss with a high level 100 dusclops should do some stuff with the other two... and shadow ball for clefable. its psychic aint it?
 
dusclops shouldnt have attacks b/c its a tank. dont give it sunny day/solar beam. siesmic is ok for the 100 dam guaranteed hits.
 
i really dont understand the stuff about tanks, stabs physical sweepers and all that. i just now... a little about them.... so all the pokemon i use must go for both defence and attack and everything at the same time.

Dusclops is ONLY good for being a tank (pokemon designed to take damage) due to the unbelieveably high defences. It's attack/sp.atk power pretty much goes down hill which is why Dusclops is no good with attacks.
 
If Dusclops is to have an attack, then you only got 2 choices: shadow ball or earthquake. All the other attacks are not strong enough in base power. Attacking Dusclops can give many surprises, but it is just a LOT harder to use, and requires much more skill. If you're still confused about all the different aspects of the game, then I'll suggest you to not try having Dusclops to attack besides night shade or seismic toss, because it's harder to control. And feel free to PM someone if you're still confused about all those "roles," so we can explain it to you or even proof it to you on NB.
 
tanks are pokemon to take the damage? u mean something like CurseLax? Im not using dusclops, but at that time i was just trying to suggest that a ghost pokemon with solarbeam and seismic toss could defeat Quagsire, Clefable and Kangashkhan....
 
And regardless of what a Dusclops is capable of doing besides mean look/curse/rest/double team, it cannot possibly beat Clefable ;) And even that, it's based on luck along with stallwar.

Tanking pokemon is someone to take damage. That is correct. Snorlax is one who can take damage and sweep at the same time (not necessarily Curselax... just any Snorlax besides Drumlax)
 
whats a stallwar? if im correct in just making from the term.. it means someone who stalls for time and battles or something?

my snorlax in NB is just a curselax i use on battle. Curse, Seismic Toss, Rest, Sleep Talk.
 
stallwar is where the battle drags on and on, with both side stalling their butt off, prolonging death in an irritating manner. GSC battles are 80% stallwar.

That is not a curselax... that's just a Snorlax with curse (a fancy name for defense curl in this case). Seismic toss isn't affected by attack power anyway... so why use it? Also, sleep talk is quite weak now that rest cannot be used when you're already asleep.

Curselax- [atk or sp.def + / sp.atk -] @ chesto berry
EV: hp, atk, def, sp.def
-curse
-rest
-double edge
-shadow ball

Of course... If I must use Snorlax... Sublax all the way (much faster in setup compare to Curselax, and it's gurantee death against *something* as long as Substitute is used safely, which isn't hard at all)
 
substitutes break easily.... i never went for them much..... hehe my simple curselax works wonders for me most of the time...... it could be a buggy bug but when i had my NB version 1 less than the beta1 of advance it could use Rest during Sleep Talk...
