well yeah, and Substitute has another T in it.... lmao (Miss-spelt it)You can squeeze Ice Punch in there if you like but that would be over Belly Drum. It doesn't have enough coverage. (DAMN GAMEFREAK FOR NOT GIVING US 5 MOVE SLOTS FOR A POKEMON! AAARGH!)

Anyway, yeah, that should work fine. Hypnosis and Waterfall is a difficult choice though. (Perhaps you can get a sub passed from Vaporeon to Belly Drum up on, although Focus Punch fails then. Maybe run with Sub-Punch, something like this, with a Sub from Vaporeon.

Poliwrath@Salac Berry
Adamant
252 Atk, 72 Spd, 184 HP
Water Absorb

Hypnosis
Waterfall
Brick Break

I'm looking for a physical wall pokemon, and I'm having trouble deciding between these.

Rhyperior
Dusknoir
Metagross

I'll post more specific things later, but when at their full potentiol, which one is the best?

Yeah but without using Sub, he has to wait for Vappy's sub to break before his Salac even activates..

None of them can be a physical wall, Metagross and Rhyperior are tanks and Dusknoir is a mixed/dual wall.

Physical walls are pokemon like Skarmory, Forretress, Steelix, Weezing etc
 
Hi all, i saw a post today saying that aqua jet and ice beam on the same set are illegal, and i was wondering why. Is it because you can only breed one or the other?

ice Punch you mean.

Its a move tutor move from emerald and Aqua Jet is a D/P egg move so you cant get both.
 
i have a question about berries. Since with is a Q&A threat, i thought i might post it here.

Lets say i have a weavile..It has 6 Ev's in hp, 255 in Spd and 249 in Atk. I screwed up somewhere while Ev training, but i know i have 255 in speed, because my Weavile has Max Spd Stats.

Since i already used berries on spd before, would the beerry just decrease it by 10 or would it lower my Ev's to 100?
 
Hi all, im doing a UU team, who would work for a special sweeper and special wall?

YAY, this is /THE/ UU sp.wall.

Hypno@Leftovers
Calm nature
252 HP / 200 sp.DEF / 58 DEF.
Trait : insomnia
- Wish
- Reflect
- Thunderwave / Hypnosis
- Psychic / Seismic Toss.

I use this in OU sometimes if my team is mixape weak and it utterly rapes it.

But anyways this is the blissey of UU.

Another great sp.wall is this.

Lanturn@Leftovers
Calm nature
40 HP / 192 SpA / 240 SpD / 36 Speed
Trait : Volt Absorb
- Thunderbolt
- Surf
- Rest
- Sleep Talk.

I remember outstalling a blissey with this lol

Awesome sp.wall though.

Grumpig, Noctowl, etc can also do a good job at sp.walling

Electrode, Gloduck, Ninetails, Rock Polish or Rain Dance Omastar, Venomoth, Victreebel, Octillery.

Ive only really used those UU wise.


If you want a set ask which one.
 
Could i have a set for venomoth plz? i would go omastar but my team's already very ground-weak.

Sure

Venomoth@Choice Specs
Trait : Tinted Lense
6 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Bug Buzz
- Hidden power Fighting /Hidden power Ground /Sleep powder
- Sludge Bomb
- Psychic

Always loved this pokemon and you end up with some redundant coverage, but Tinted lense is the thing that makes this set work, because if your foe switches into a not very effective attack it does double the damage.
 
Ok, lets talk this out...

So, if the move is not very effective, it does half damage.

But with Tinted Lens, it's 2x damage.

So, is that now one whole? Or is the "not very effective" ignored?

If a move is not very effective, the damage from the attack is doubled. If the foe would normally take half damage, it now takes normal damage. If the foe would take 1/4th damage, it now takes half damage.

I can see that no-one answered your question so I'll try to help :) I think if you just use one it will drop only 10 but I'm not sure; I don't really know :( You can use a Stat Calculator like this to find out what your Pokemon's stat should be at the level it is though. I do that when I lose track of my EVs =P
 
I'm having trouble with my gardevoirs move set

Gardevoir@Leftovers
Modest
Trace

Calm Mind
Thunderbolt
WoW
Psychic/Shadow Ball

Is that a good set? And should i run shadow ball or psychic?
 
Syncronise over Trace, its generally handier and some abilities can screw you over.
