Any chance of a Physical set for Darkrai? And don't tell me to use a special set - just give me a physical set.
As well, perhaps a physical Phione set would be nice as well.

Darkrai@life Orb
Jolly Nature
252 ATT / 252 SPEED/ 6 HP
- Swords Dance
- Dark Void
- Brick Break
- Payback / Shadow Claw

Fighting and Ghost hit everything in the game for at least neutral. If you opt for payback, you get a stab move, but get walled by Heracross.

OR

Darkrai@Choice Band
Jolly Nature
252 ATT / 252 SPEED/ 6 HP
- Payback
- Pursuit
- Brick Break
- Return / Aerial Ace



Phione@Choice Band
252 HP / 252 ATT / 6 SPEED
Adamant Nature
- U-Turn
- Return
- Waterfall
- Toxic / <Insert something here due to lack of better options =/>


Or


Phione@Leftovers / Life Orb / Wet Rock
252 HP / 252 ATT / 6 SPEED
Adamant Nature
- Return
- Waterfall
- Rest
- Rain Dance




I dub thee Phiophail and Darkfail !!! XD


Good luck btw, you'll need it lol
 
Eh, Physical Darkrai?

I can think of something like
Darkrai @ Leftovers
Adamant/Jolly ~ 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 6 HP
- Swords Dance
- Taunt / Dark Void
- Dark Void / Aerial Ace/ Focus Punch / Rock Slide / X-Scissor / Pursuit / Poison Jab
- Shadow Claw / Focus Punch / Rock Slide / X-Scissor / Pursuit / Poison Jab

Dark Void, SD on the switch, do something with your crappy physical movepool. Or maybe you can make one just to kill Giratina or something. They'll switch Giratina in hoping to absorb the Dark Void, but you SD that turn. Then they'll try to burn you, but you Taunt. Then you kill it Shadow Claw, which also hits Lugia which may try to PHaze you. Not really recommended, but sounds fun to use.

And for Phione, I'd go with;

Phione @ Leftovers / Damp Rock
Adamant ~ 252 HP / 252 Atk / 6 Def
- Rain Dance
- Waterfall
- Rest
- Toxic / Return / Psych Up / U-Turn

Hydration set. Walled completely by Empoleon. If you don't pack Toxic, it's also walled by Quagsire, Poliwrath, Politoed, Vaporeon. If you don't pack Return, it's walled by Toxicroak. Psych Up may help you copy something's boosts, in case they decide to set up on you. U-Turn helps you get out when one of those Pokémon I mentioned is sent out.

Darkrai @ Leftovers
Adamant 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 6 HP
(Why did you put Sp. Atk?)
- Swords Dance
- Dark Void
- Pursuit
- Shadow Claw

I think I'll go with this. If I've already SD'd, I'll pursuit them on the switch.
And Shadow Claw owns their Giratina/Mewtwo/Insert Pokemon with low Defense.

Phione @ Leftovers
Adamant ~ 252 HP / 252 Atk / 6 Def
- Substitute
- Waterfall
- Rest
- Return

I'll sub and then Rest it off. This'll mesh well with my Rain Dance team.
 
Oh, my friend came up with an interesting PhyPhione set. We shall call it the Phailone.

Phione @ Toxic Orb/Flame Orb
Adamant ~ 252 Atk / 252 HP / 6 Def
- Waterfall
- Rain Dance
- Rest
- Facade / Fling

Yes, it's pure novelty, but sounds fun. Phione will stay Poisoned every turn, but won't take Poison damage thanks to Hydration, meaning Facade gets even more powerful than Return. If you go with Flame Orb, don't use Facade but Fling, so you can Burn one of the opponent's physical treats.

I'm sure Smogoners would have a field trip to hell and bash this set like there's no tomorrow, but don't we all like some fun sometimes?

Just a note, one that first set replace Pursuit for Brick break, or Dialga owns you. Dark and Ghost have poor coverage together , so you need a fighting move for coverage, and the day giratina has poor defenses is the day pokemon ends lol

And as Dark said, win records doesn't prove anything. I have a record 0f 35 wins, 32 losses-all from Dark Azelf. Does that mean I'm a bad player? Looks to me like it means I should battle other people :\
Click to expand...

Well, I dont battle noobs as it is no fun
But then again, my win record could be inacurate as I battle Lutia 50% of the time and I think Dark Azelf and Gofre know what a noob she is like LMAO :)

(Speaking of her I had another Epic battle, Luvdisk v Feebas.......

......Legend...)
 
PD WiFi Team

HI, I think I accidentally posted this as a topic, but it did not get accepted. Here's what I wanted to post, and I think that this is the right place.
I would like to make a team for my Poke'Mon Diamond. I want a nice and balanced team to use for WiFi battles. Here are some of the poke'mon that I would like to use:
Keep in mind, if there is a Diamond Pokemon that would HAVE to repleace one of these, then I will use it because I am not yet that familiar with the new PD Pkmn because I've been at the BF on Emerald for a very long time.

Torkoal - Tank?
Def Evs, Attack Evs, HP
Iron Defence
Flamethrower
-----
-----


Starmie - Special Sweeper?
Speed, Spec. Attk., HP
Surf
---
---
---


Blissey
Metagross
Ampharos - Already Ev'd for Special attack.



These are Poke'mon taht I would likke in my team, but just because I have them on here, doesn't mean they're gonna be in my team. If there is a Pokemon better, I'll swap it out and try it.
I need a 6th spot also.
If you give me genuine help, I'll provide you with a Masterball.
I am leaving at 5:30 PM EST Time to go on vacation to camp and I would like an answer by then.
Thanks
Kody
 
Torkoal is kind of a lame tank. He has the defense, but the amount of weaknesses he has (Ground, Rock, and Water, all three very common) make him less than ideal. Not to mention his movepool is pretty small.

Starmie is a pretty good Special Sweeper.

Starmie @ Choice Specs
Modest/ Timid
252 SAtk/ 252 Spe/ 6 HP
- Surf
- Ice Beam
- Thunderbolt
- Psychic/ Grass Knot

Specstar. Modest gives you more power, but Timid lets you outspeed Timid Gengar.

Blissey is commonly known as the best special wall in the game. :P

Blissey @ Leftovers
Calm
252 Def/ 216 SDef/ 40 HP
- Softboiled
- Seismic Toss
- Ice Beam/ Aromatherapy
- Toxic/ Thunder Wave

Good thing you have Emerald- Seismic Toss is only obtainable through the Emerald Move Tutor. Anyway, Aromatherapy lets you heal teammates, but Ice Beam gives Bliss a second attack and makes her a somewhat decent Garchomp counter, and allows her to hit Gengar. Thunderwave allows you to paralyze foes, but Toxic allows her to stall and is, in my opinion, better.

Metagross @ Choice Band
Adamant
252 Atk/ 244 HP/ 12 Def
- Meteor Mash
- Earthquake
- Explosion
- Thunderpunch/ Pursuit/ Bullet Punch

Raw power. Thunderpunch is a third gen Move Tutor move, by the way.
 
Thank-You for helping me. I'll think about it. I'll think about the MasterBall too, but I need 3 more Poke'Mon. Probably a Physical Sweeper, Maybe a tank...?
AeroDactyl
Atk/Def Evs
-EarthQuake?
-
-
-


I figure if I get an AeroDactyl, and a Dragonite/flying dragon poke'mon, I can use Fly on Dragonite ( i know fly is bad, but I do get random good hits) and then that moment, use EarthQuke on Aerodactyl so I can hit the other 2 opponents without hurting Dragonite. Is Fly worth it? Would I be unbalanced and weak because I have 2 flying types?
I would like a pokemon with decent fire moves, one with decent physical moves, and a pokemon of a type i dont have yet.
----AeroDactyl?
----fire pkmn
----?

I need those 3 more pokemon
 
Dragonite is flying so EQ won't hurt him anyway. Is this for double battles? I have an Aerodactyl that does pretty well as a physical sweeper. Watch as people tell me this isn't a standard moveset, then watch me not care.

Aerodactyl@Life Orb
EVs: 252 att, 252 spd, 6 hp Jolly
Thunder Fang
Ice Fang
EQ
Aerial Ace
 
Never use fly. EVER
Sorry, but it has no use whatsoever.
Anyways, rant over :P
Standard Aerodactyl:
Aero@Choice Band
Jolly
252Att/216Spd/42HP
EQ
Stone Edge
Fire Fang
Ice Fang
I myself don't run the HP EVs, but apparently they're standard. Some people also run rock slide over Stone edge since it has better accuracy and high flinch rate.

Standard Dragonite:
Nite@Life Orb/Leftovers
Jolly
252Att/252Spd/6HP
Dragon Dance
Outrage
Fire Ounch/Fire Blast
Earthquake
DDNite, quite a beast.

Uh....k.....(obiliously I can't explain it way I wanted to, so I just dropping it.)
I'm workin on both teams....for my uber one, would it better to have Spacial rend on my Darkrai instead of Thunder? (i'm running the mixed sweeper set from smogon but it don't mention Darkrai's event moves, Spacial rend & Roar of time.)
I'm also wondering if Scope lens would be a acceptable held item instead of Life orb, due to Spacial rend's high-critial hit ratio....(also, focus punch with a higher critial hit ratio would help....probaly still hax though...)Also, should I have metagross as my psyically defensive pokemon for the standrad team, or leave the heavy psyical hitting to my Garchomp & have a supportive psyically defensive pokemon that can hurt the foe bad when needed, like Forretress or Scizor?
Click to expand...
Uh...Help please? also, I'm not sure bout blissey...I kinda wanted something that still give good support, but hit harder, like togekiss or vaporeon...(i'm thinking Vaporeon...
 
Um, I was wondering if someone would be able to give me a moveset/nature/item for an offensive drapion.

Would you like the sweeper or the Choice band set?

Sweeper

Leftovers / Scope Lens Sniper Jolly MovesetEVs~ Swords Dance
~ Night Slash
~ Brick Break / Earthquake
~ Knock Off / Fire Fang
40 HP / 252 Atk / 216 Spe
Sniper is an amazing ability, especially with all the high CH moves that Drapion possesses. Night Slash is the main STAB attack here. Brick Break is for coverage, particularly against Steels and Tyranitar; Earthquake can also do this. Knock Off will hurt against Heracross and Skarmory, but Fire Fang offers more general damage. Drapion's good Speed and Defense make it a prime candidate for Swords Dancing. The Speed is enough to outspeed base 100 neutral nature Pokémon.

Here's the set I'd use....(I hate the idea of being locked onto 1 move....)
