new 2v2 strategy

[Lion Heart]

I don't think anything could take a hit from 4459ATK anyway..

 

[Phlemingo]

More like follow me. In case you miss if they're flying type, in which case you'd use Rock slide. And the risk that you would miss is there.

 

[Lion Heart]

That you'd miss who?

Marowak?

Or do you mean Follow Me > Helping Hand?

Helping Hand is there to raise power :P

 

[Lord Jaws]

For all the people out there that are paranoid about Rock Slide missing they can always use HP Rock. Only 5 less power and no flinch but it may save you when a possible miss doesnt occur.

i think golem/rydon/ and metagross-->( i remember its 604 for metagross) have better attack w/ cb than marowak does w/ thick club ( i tested it when i had my ninjask,scizor, cb medicham, tclub marowak, cb azumarill, cb golem), and switched cb meta gross and cb rydon in/out a few times... anyways not that it works better since it can only use 1 move, but rydon/golem/metagross do have better attack. Also huge power from azumaril doubles its power, while pure power only 1.5x the power. so to see the best power possible, u would have to role play/skill swap a azumariil's ability to metagross, and give it +6 attack.
604 (w/ cb) x4 (belly drum)=2416 x2 (huge power)=4832 attack

-.-;;
Follow me would help much more than helping hand in marowak's situation since it's SLOW and already has high attack.

Do Medicham Skill Swap Pure Power.

 

[Lion Heart]

Smeargle Belly Drum, pass to Metagross, Medicham uses Skill Swap on Metagross.

Make sure Smeargle is faster than Medicham or He'll Skill Swap Smeargle.

 

[kirby00]

also, u could skill swap grumpig's thick fat so that fire doesnt deal 2x damage to metagross, simila to levitate

 

[Lion Heart]

Not bad, he'd be virtually immune to Ice that way aswell :P

I think 2v2 wise Sunnybeaming would be devastating, I was just thinking...

Turn 1 would be A used Sunny Day, B used Solar Beam.

Repeat until Sunny Day runs out, or a pokemon dies, all pokemon are Sunnybeamersm with HP Fire aswell for extra power.

Or you could have like pairs, but with moves that make them compatible with the other pokemon in the party, like this:

Shiftry: Sunny Day/Solar Beam/HP Fire/Anything.
Exeggutor: Solar Beam/HP Water/anything/anything.
Lapras: Rain Dance/Thunder/anything/anything

See how if something goes wrong with the Beamers (Shiftry and Eggy), Lapras can come in, Rain Dance, and Eggy won't be fully ditched.

If ****ry learns Thunder, that could be his last move.

 

[Sin]

tclub marowak still has higher atk than metagross,methinks.even if it doesnt,the ability to switch moves is highly treasured =D

 

[Lion Heart]

Yep, but it comes at a price.

Being OHKO'd by anything Super Effective isn't cool :D

 

[kirby00]

actually highest attack is on a cb slaking (160 base attack compared 2 metagrosses/salamences 135 base attack)

 

[Lion Heart]

Yep, Slaking has it, STAB'd Double-Edges from base 160 with Choice Band is cool until they pull out a Ghost.

I prefer both Metagross and Salamence over Slaking in my teams though, as they have alot more options and opportunites for annihilation ;)

(Agiligross and DDMence is where it's at.)
