It doesn't? I thought Worry Seed would get rid of Traunt and changes it to Insomnia. Therefore Slaking will attack again and again without loafing around...

It does give insomnia so idc what chaos is talking about.

when I was playing PBR, as I was reading the instructions within the game, it says that Worry Seed cant change Slaking's Truant.

and it was proved by Smogon :

[Red_Star_Chris]

Yeah, bite my tongue there. Worry Seed DOES NOT work on Slaking's Traunt. Bother! That means I have to think of another perfect Pokemon for the combo like Regigigas. Regigigas might have Slow Start that cuts it's Attack and Speed in half, but when's targeted by Worry Seed, it's very dangerous. Do you people think this is a good moveset for the Regigigas in Double Battles?

Nature: Adamant
EV's: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Speed
Held Item: Leftovers
Return
Fire Punch
Earthquake
Protect

The Protect is used to defend itself while Sceptile sets up Safeguard. Then Sceptile uses Worry Seed on the Regigigas, making it brutal in battles.

Thats good, just beware of these fast pokemon that attempts to kill Sceptile.

 

[Opposite Day]

Reggigigas can't learn Protect, sadly :/

Does Magic Coat bounce back Taunt?

 

[Red_Star_Chris]

Hmm, I see...Can Icy Wind be a good move on the Regigigas because it can lower my opponent's Speed.

 

[Chaostorm]

Thunder Wave is better imo.

 

[Red_Star_Chris]

Hmm, I guess it's Thunder Wave for the last slot then. By the way, Icy Wind can lower both of my opponent's Speed.

Taunt is one of the status ailments, so probably yes.

Anyone Got A Good Set And Evs For A Sandslash Or Maybe A Venusaur For A UU Team?

Sandslash - https://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/sandslash
Venusaur - https://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56958

Depends on what your team needs, what needs to be checked, etc. If you use Swords Dance Venusaur, you should use Power Whip instead of Seed Bomb due to HGSS changes.

Anyone Got A Good Set And Evs For A Sandslash Or Maybe A Venusaur For A UU Team?

​

Sandslash@Leftovers
80 HP / 252 Atk / 176 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge / Night Slash
- Rapid Spin / Stone Edge

SD Slash, its other sets are outclassed by Donphan.


Venusaur@Life Orb
252 ATT / 252 SPEED / 6 HP
Adamant / Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Sleep Powder / Synthesis
- Power Whip
- Return / Earthquake

SD Saur is its most deadly set atm, it smacks around near everything.

Venusaur@Leftovers
252 HP / 252 SpD / 4 Speed
Calm / Careful / Sassy Nature
- Power Whip / Energy Ball
- Earthquake / Sludge Bomb / Leech Seed
- Synthesis
- Sleep Powder / Roar / Leech Seed

Support Venu, tanks hits pretty well. Choose your attack moves and support moves along with nature according to what you want. You can also ev its physical def if you want and give it + def natures. Any combinations of the moves work just aslong as you have one stab move and Synthesis.

Venusaur@Choice Specs / Choice Scarf
236 HP / 252 SpA / 20 Spe
Modest Nature
- Leaf Storm
- Hidden Power [Fire/Ground/Ice]
- Sludge Bomb
- Sleep Powder / Energy Ball / Sleep Talk

Use 56 HP / 252 SpA / 200 Spe @ timid with scarf. But yeah this is choice Venu.

Pretty much.

Dark Azelf- What do you think of the team I posted on page 20? (Sorry to be a pest:p)

 

[Pikachukid]

What moveset should you use for mime jr? (Not Mr. Mime, Mime Jr.) Why? Because I like mime jr. better. I'm going for140hp, 140 def, 120 sp Attck, and 110 speed. Yeah I'm not very good at coming up with EV spreads. So I guess I need help with a support moveset and EV spreading.

I am not a expert on Little Cup, but this seems to be the standard support Mime Jr.:

Mime Jr. @ Oran Berry
Ability: Filter
EVs: 196 HP / 116 SpD / 196 Speed
Calm Nature (+ SpD / - Atk)
- Thunder Wave
- Light Screen / Reflect
- Encore
- Psychic

 

[Peeky Chew]

I was wondering how changing Umbreon from a support to a full on tank would work? The firstb is it right now and the second how it would be:

Umbreon@Leftovers

252 HP / 200 Atk / 56 SpD
Toxic
Payback
Wish
Baton Pass

Umbreon@Leftovers

252 Hp / 252 SpD / 4 Def
Toxic
Taunt
Moonlight
Curse

There are 2 good Umbreon support/tank sets.

Umbreon@Leftovers
252 HP / 252 S.DEF / 6 DEF
Careful Nature
- Payback
- Wish / Moonlight
- Toxic / Yawn
- Protect / Taunt / Heal Bell

Or

Umbreon@Leftovers
252 HP / 252 S.DEF / 6 DEF
Careful Nature
- Payback
- Wish / Moonlight
- Curse
- Protect / Taunt / Heal Bell

Both these sets ive used and both are amazing in uu.

Blastoise @ Choice Specs
Modest
64 HP / 252 Special Attack / 192 Speed
- Surf
- Ice Beam
- Focus Blast
- Earthquake

This is your best option since Hidden Powers are apparently not possible. Though there are plenty of UU special attackers that outclass Blastoise in this respect.

I don't have Focus Blast TM(but why the heck? Already have E) now, so I'll stick to sub. Since my EVs is for tank. There's already Hydro Cannon, I'll never delete a great move, since my set is for doubles. And I got this Tyranitar ready for transfering with this set. Darn hard trying to breed it.

Tyranitar @ Leftovers
Adamant(lucky)
EVs: 56HP/252 Atk/252 Def

Dragon Dance
Rock Slide(ready to change it to Stone Edge when transfered)
Earthquake
Crunch

I might change some moves to a better one aside from SE.

Gotta admit, Umbreon's movepools got even better in D/P/Pt than in R/S/E.

 

[Dark Azelf]

Those evs are horrible though and so is the set. Stick to Blastoise strengths, either use it as a Rapid Spinner or use the specs set, your set is not playing to its strenghts. Earthquake is a horrible move on specs btw, when you have to use EQ on a specs set you know you are a bad specs user lol.

Blastoise@Choice Specs
252 SP.ATT / 252 SPEED / 6 HP
Modest/Timid Nature
- Water Spout / Hydro Pump
- Surf
- Focus Blast
- Ice Beam


Water Spout is powerful and Blastoise is not that slow so can make decent use of it. Surf for late game when you take damage. If you cant get Spout just use H-Pump to put holes in things early game.


Also you should GET a Focus Blast tm, stop being lazy and buy one from Veilstone city mart. >o lol

There's already Hydro Cannon, I'll never delete a great move, since my set is for doubles.

Hydro Cannon is awful, recharge turn = free set up for your opponent. Hydro Pump is better.

And I got this Tyranitar ready for transfering with this set. Darn hard trying to breed it.

Comments in bold.

Jolly tar with max att/max speed please so you can beat Raikou, Azelf and Starmie after a DD, Adamant is too slow to be effective. Your evs are random and dont help it what so ever stick to a pokemons strenghts, Tyranitars is sweeping so def evs do squat.

Hydro Pump? I'll find a Heart Scale to recall the move, which you do make sense. Sorry for the bad EVs, I'm not that pro.

Don't tell me I have to catch another Larvitar with the right nature and breed it all over again which cost me a lot of precious tmie just to make it right? Never mind, I'll only play with my neighbors.

And I'm lazy, and don't have to money to buy at the mart. Only 275 right now(what the...). Maybe I'll battle the league again later, I'm busy(literally).
