Quick Question and Answer Thread / Breeding Questions

Scratch that, she can't learn Psychic lol. So what do you think of Shadow Ball? Good against Ghost types, a Special Move and a Smart Move as well so it'll be good for contests. And lowers defense. I;m so indecisive Lol. Again thanks for your help, and anyone else who wants to add input xD

On a side Note: Can I post a thread about my Frontier Team and help on it on the Main Platinum Board, or will that have to go here?

XD yeah i just check it out and she can learn by egg move extrasensory not Psychic =p, anyway yes shadow ball it's a good move as well, look this is my roserade and is moves, check it out:

Roserade lv 70 mild nature
Petal Dance
Extrasensory
Sludge Bomb
Attract (this one only for fun, because Roserade is like this sexy lady =p)

whenever move you want is ok, yeah some are weak moves or useless but, hey, it's a game let's have fun, i remember when my classmates and i make a little tournament and i started the final battle with a Gyarados and my first powerful move was... Splash!!! We laugh hours and hours about that.

if you use Spore and put a pokemon to sleep will using a move such as Focus Punch wake it up?
yes im still trying to figure out the move set for my Smeargle :)
 
Thats good.
also with Smeargle having pretty weak attack and Sp. Attack
i was wondering what would be a good damaging move that doesnt use these stats such as :

Super Fang - does 50% damage of pokemons current health
Night Shade - based on Pokemon Lvl

what others are there?

turn it into a FEAR pokemon :)
if you can, try and get one with endure, ice shard and endeavour

then in a match you can give it a salac berry which kicks in after the endure and then use endeavour and ice shard will finish them off

I dont belive that any moves can wake a pokemon up!

wake up slap is the only move i know of that can wake up a pokemon

i dont like giving them movesets that require berries.
So far i have : Spore, Nightmare, Toxic and ______
i just need a good attacking move that doesnt require Attack or Sp. Attack stats
when i get a chance i might give it Dark Void - but the 80% accuracy is a worry
 
uuuuh... if you want a fixed-damage move you should probably go for Super Fang.

Remember, Smeargle has way better options though.

LIKE DRACO METEOR OVERHEAT LEAF STORM PSYCHO BOOST OLOLOLOL!
 
i am trying to find moves that dont use the pokemons Attack or Sp. Attack which are kinda weak
dont all the other moves you mention use them
 
No, those other moves are ridiculously overpowered special moves that won't be that overpowered when they're coming off a 20 base special attack. XD
 
yeah thats what i thought, knowing that they have a weak Attack or Sp. Attack i need something that
even with these will still do decent damage - any ideas?
 
you could always get seismic toss easily from some random machop/machoke
 
yeah thats a good possible move, any other tips?
 
well seismic toss and nightshade are the only two of their kind
and all thats left after that is superfang

so it's one of those three

it depends on if you intend to finish people with smeargle or whether its just meant to whittle down HP
 
i plan on Spore-ing it, Nightmare and Toxic it and try and do as much damage as possible
what would be the best to use? are there any pokemon immune to either of those moves?
 
well theres pokemon with the ability insomnia - whole plan goes out the window as they wont fall asleep

and theres early bird too which means that they wont be asleep for long
the nightmare covers any grass/steel types with might be immune to toxic

but you have to have a backup or use toxic very late, cos once theyre poisoned, they cant be put to sleep so they'll be attacking you

protect maybe? or a recovery move?
 
is anyway Smeargle can learn Endure? that way you can toxic enemies en always be safe, of course if the enemy don't have a high speed XD, can you try Fake Out?

yeah i know about sleeping
i would use Spore as my first move, then use either Nightmare or Toxic followed by the other

i was thinking Recover to restore health

is anyway Smeargle can learn Endure? that way you can toxic enemies en always be safe, of course if the enemy don't have a high speed XD, can you try Fake Out?

as i said before i would Spore them first move Not Sure about Endure as it would only leave me with Nightmare and Toxic to damage them
 
you might as well go with recovery

just to remind you, if something doesnt work out quite right, smeargle learns sketch 10 times so you can just take it to pastoria and overwrite the bad move with a new sketch and try again
 
Yeah thats true, i am thinking of cloning my one so i have 2 for doubles battles and give it more attacking moves
so i have the first to sleep, Nightmare and Toxic them and use the second to kill them off - sound good?
