    Thank you! Someone else who actually does a smart Blissey EV spread. =)
    A little nit-pick, but go 20HP / 252Def / 12Spd / 224SpDef. That my friend is the best Blissey spread.


    For Heatran, go with Fire Blast>Flamethrwoer to 2HKO Cress. A neutral Fire Blast does more than a supper effective Dark Pulse btw. Stick in a Hidden Power [Grass/Ice/Electric] or Explosion to go out with a bang. 40HP / 216Spd / 252SpAtk is a better EV spread.

    Give Rhyperior Leftovers.


    Garchomp should have 16HP / 252Atk / 240Spd as the EV spread. It wants Substitute over Fire Fang.


    Infernape needs 24Atk / 232Spd / 252SpAtk and with Flamethrower>Flare Blitz. Give it Life Orb.




    Gyarados weak.
     
    I always thought flamethrower>fire blast because of the inaccuracy. Also, how will I be able to kill a gyarados without changing pokemon?
     
    I DO have a lot of fire, so I could go for stone edge on gar. I can easily get f-thrower/fire blast TMs, so I could do some experimenting. Also, why does bliss need speed?

    No, that's just lack of sense. HP always comes before defenses, and we BOTH know that Blissey does not need all of that Sp. Defense when it's already running off of 306 SDef to begin with.

    Rhyperior sucks at Stealth Rock. It's much better as a wrecking ball CB Attacker.

    Heatran is too slow to use Choice Specs. Either Scarf it, or beef it with Defense and HP.

    Better EVs. Needs Fire Blast for Skarmory optimization.

    Thanks!
    Has the biggest Gyarados weakness in the world. Electivire also poses a threat, and 95% of the time, Gyarados and Electivire are on the same team =(

    And you can't kill Gyarados without changing Pokemon. You REALLY can't kill Gyarados if it has a Dragon Dance on its belt.
     
    There is no significant difference between 656HP and 714HP. HP is of the least importance to Blissey. My spread, 20HP / 252Def / 12Spd / 224SpDef @ Calm nature, is the best Blissey spread, fact.




    Does your EVs stop SpecsLuke Aura Sphere from 2HKOing you? Does it stop Flash Fired SpecsHeatran Fire Blast from 2HKOing you? Does it stop SpecsGar Focus Blast from 2HKOing you? Does it stop Nasty Plot Togekiss Aura Sphere from 2HKOing you? Does it stop MS Zapdos Thunderbolt 2HKOing you? Does it stop Modest Nasty Plot Life Orb Adaptabilty PorygonZ Hyper Beam from 0HKOing you?

    Come back and we'll talk whenever your "ideal" EV spread meets those special attacking threats.
     
    And has it occured to you that even with your SDef EVs, all they'll do is end up using said Metal Sound or Nasty Plot TWICE?

    And with no defense or HP EVs, it's not taking Physical Hits very well at all. And tell me one thing, who uses Choice Specs when it doesn't have the Speed OR the Defense to abuse it with?
     
    flamehaze, I'm going to be blunt because it's been made clear to me that those who frequent this section feel the same: your attitude has been far from stellar. We don't doubt you have a vast amount of knowledge on Pokemon Battling. -- We can see that by your usual workable sets with the explanations to back them up. However, there are differing opinions, and you need to accept that. So stop with the:

    It's a fact.
    The only truth.

    You get the picture. Just post your move set, include your explanation and move on. If you continue this attitude, there will be consequences. Thank you.
     
    How do I do a formal quote?

    Kay.
     
    Infernape cant use fire blast well, if it misses its screwed basically and Flamethrower will ohko Skarmory regardless =/

    Ohkos Skarmory and Blissey.


    Now for fire blast on Garchomp (who is bulky enough to miss and doesnt get STAB therefore Fire blast is better than Flamethrower), its there for steels who resist your main move, outrage, it allows you to get rid of them and sweep and does more to Skarmory and Forretress than fire fang will.
