Ninetails help

[Weavile05]

I'm trying to decide on a moveset for my Ninetails on Sapphire.

Flamethrower
Attract
Confuse Ray
Willowisp

I know there's only one attacking move, but Ninetail's doesn't have that many attacking options anyway.

I like it! But,will-o-wisp could be changed... to solarbeam(if it can learn) Oh,when u get the TM psychic check (its on victory road somewhere)and see if it can learn that.(idk if it can) xD Oh and lastly,Give ninetails charcoal to make flamethrower stronger!

Try breeding a Vulpix with Faint Attack. I'm not exactly sure how you do that in Gen III, but it might help.

The only other suggestion is getting a Vulpix with HP Grass. Try attacking Kelceon, and the type it changes to will be your HP Type.

Ok... I might consider still doing these... but I already beat steven anyway.

Vulpix with Faint Attack... No thanks. Already got Ninetails to level 45 so.... that's not happening.

Can't learn Solar Beam... Can't learn Psychic (would have put that on my Claydol anyway)
HP Grass could be an option... as long as it already is grass. Isn't there someone though that can tell you your Hidden Power?

I'm trying to decide on a moveset for my Ninetails on Sapphire.

Flamethrower
Quick Attack/Secret Power
Will-o-Wisp/Confuse Ray
Iron Tail/Dig

Given with what I had to work with I'd say I did pretty good :] Flamethrower for your STAB. Quick Attack to finish of, or Secret Power to inflict a status effect, Will-o-Wisp to criple rock/ground/steel types or Confuse ray to well Confuse em' but I'd say Will is better, Dig can defeat the mentioned Steel and Rock types, Iron tail just goes for Rock though~

I know there's only one attacking move, but Ninetail's doesn't have that many attacking options anyway.

Comments and Suggestions in bold. Secret Power isn't that hard to get, Iron tail can be obtained once Waterfall has been received,

# his name is ninetales not ninetails
# you can change attract to fire spin to block oppoment change pokemon and have damage in turn

I like Dragonomega's options, possible too.
Curse of Ninetales: Does it really matter how it's name is spelled it sounds the same.
Attract I used a TM for, so I really don't want to get rid of it.

um well idk about saphire but i had this on my so far back ninetales on ss

hypnosis(bred with stantler)
energy ball(traded tm from platinum)
flamethrower
i think i had willowisp or something sorry idk about saphire i do agree get it hp grass

 

[Weavile05]

If she already has the IVs for HP Grass, then I will teach it, if not, then I'll just leave it, but maybe put Dig on somehow. Energy ball and Hypnosis wouldn't work.
