Yeah cursepert rocks, in fact swampy in general rocks. As long as its purple :P Rhyperior is another nice one. And :O ive found a use for it on a ghost!

Dusknoir@Leftovers
Impish
252 HP/152SpDef/106Att
Curse
Painsplit
Pursuit
Shadow Sneak
Anti Blissey machine. Curse it, then if you think they will switch out, Pursuit it. Otherwise pain split takes a nice chunk out of whatever switches in and decimates blissey. It probably wouldn't work, but its nice in theory :)

Forrtress, Skarmory,Reflect Metagross, Scizor , Hell just about any Steel type, Bulky Gyarados, Torkoal, Swampert, Regirock (it survives 3 brick breaks even with no def evs ), Heracoss (If Weaviles not packing Aerial ace), there are quite a few.

Using curse with a ghost pokemon kills half your HP :/

I know, which makes painsplit all the more effective. As an example, lets say you're facing blissey and manage to get the painsplit in. Assume both have max EVs and IVs in HP:
(294/2= 147)+(714-25%=536)=683
Dusknoir^^^ ^^^Blissey

683/2=341. This puts blisseys health way under half and fully heals noir. This calculation doesnt take other damage and healing into account, but its till gonna hurt :) And like i said, i doubt it would get put into practice, but it was a nice thought.
 
If a pokemon has an effort ribbon it means its EVs are maxed out right?
 
Would this be worth doing?

Use curse 3 times, then baton pass to an agility user.
Use agility a few times, then pass to a weavile.

Would it be worth doing?

You should lead ninjask. Use sword dance then the speed boost kicks in, use protect and speed boost kicks in again. baton bass to umbreon. use curse 3 times, then baton pass to weavile ^^
 
O.o that could work...

in the end, would i able able to out speed some scarfer's?
 
okay I have a question! I have an R4 and theres this program that let's you create Pokemon and download them on to your game you can give it any moves set, any stats,and any item if I were to (lets use ambipom for an example) give him 252 EVs in speed and 252 in attack would it be considered hacked or illegal?

Yes any pokemon you have caught, or breeded, or traded from a friend who caught or breeded it, or got in mystery gift is hacked.

Depends on the person really, I for one do not care if you hack to get it, as long as all it's stats and moves and everything is ok

You mean Pokesav ??


Well, imo its ok as long as you make the pokemon legit, by that i mean not 31 in everything and 999 in every stat or 252 evs in everything or a stupid ability like wonderguard on something that doesnt get it.

I couldnt care less if the pokemon is used against me in a battle but made to look legit and has normal ivs and evs. It saves breeding time and Hidden power Breeding time. For example my friend has a Modest Baton pass (Pokemon XD move) Lunatone with Hidden power ( i forgot which HP type it was) he really wanted one and i sympathize with him, he pokesaved it, just because he wasnt about to spent hours, days, weeks even years to get a Modest Hidden Power Lunatone from pokemon XD with the correct Ivs for a good HP, just so he could get Baton pass aswell. I dont mind about stuff like this.

However, If you do use it i suggest you keep it undercover to save the hassle and only use them for personal use and not re-distribute them, just keep them to yourself for battling. Some people will get angry that they are battling a "hackbag", It can be argued by some people that you should take the time and breed them yourself. Ive already stated i dont mind, but some people arnt as sympathetic to hackers, weather they hack "legal" pokemon with legal stats movesets, abilities etc or illegal stats movesets, abilities etc. Just remember that.

alright thanks,you know I have about 60 machops in my storage box! I just couldn't get one with the right nature and ability.........
 
Is Focus Punch worth trying for Poliwrath? I figure Sub up, then Belly Drum but unsure of what Fighting move to give him, Brick Break or Focus Punch
 
I bred this Skarmory:

31, 21, 31, 29, 16, 30

Any good? I would have liked some more in attack though :\ Is SpDef needed on Skarm?... Does its crappy SpDef matter?

As for now, I'll keep breeding =D
 
That's perfect. It REALLY is. If you want more, go ahead, but that's do-able.

Skarmory won't ever need to take a Sp.Atk, so that doesn''t matter.
