The Search For The "Best" Physical Wall/Tank(Maybe)

WOA!!how'd he get Booted out??and ok.thanx
 
can you ever come back after getting booted out?and also I think that I am going to go with Swampy!
 
no you would have to make a new profile. like i said try duskinoir with this moveset:

Will-O-Wisp
Shadow Sneak
Pain Split
Substitiute

since duskinoir has high defense & sp.def, use substitute. it will take a couple of turns to get you out of that. then in the mean time, pain split to get your hp up a little bit, then toxic or will-o-wisp to give it that sp. condidition. then switch out. btw shadow sneak is good for a pokemon that is weak to duskinoir and it goes first.

His low HP makes Substitute more of a risk than a blessing sometimes. And When your banded I believe its oringinally a couple weeks or a month.
 
Yeah like I said I want to go with Swampy sooo yeah!Also Who Should be my lead?Maybe Weavile or Gengar?
 
I do!I like Shoddy I like the format of netbattle more but I like the pokemon way better on shoddy!
 
No, it's not best to use Gengar as your lead. Never lead with something that's slower than Weavile and is weak to Pursuit.

oh i forgot. i use electivire (i'm usually against a ground type first). then i switch into gengar and he won't be effected (levitate ability).

I do!I like Shoddy I like the format of netbattle more but I like the pokemon way better on shoddy!

yeah i know. whats your name on there? i will battle you one day.
 
my name is Blazikendude!Also what moveset would you suggest as a moveset for Gliscor and Gallade(one of my new favorite pokemon!)?
 
Gallade
Adamant
Leaf Blade
Swords Dance
Psycho Cut
Close Combat

Or (my favourite)

Gallade
Careful
Will "O" Wisp
Psycho Cut
Close Combat
Swords Dance

I prefer using Gallade as a pokemon that can take hits just as well as dealing them out. (why don't people reply to my threads like this:'( )
 
Gliscor @ Leftovers
Impish Nature
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 6 Atk
- Roost
- Knock Off / Stealth Rock
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge / Aerial Ace

Makes a great Heracross counter and supporter.
 
Have you considerer Umbreon? She has a max of 394 life, 350 def and 394 of SpDef. Only weak against bug and fighting.

her moveset would be:
Toxic
Mean look
Moonlight
Baton Pass

She can only max out two of her stats though. It is recommended to max out her HP and Defenses.

If you do decide on Umbreon here is an alternate moveset.

-Wish/Moonlight
-Mean Look
-Baton Pass
-Toxic/Curse/Taunt/Yawn/etc...
 
ok, i finally thought of a great moveset for shuckle that i got in a trade today (sure its been used already).


gyro ball+power trick=one of the greatest pokemon you will ever see.

we all know shuckle has horrible attack & speed, but gyro ball and bad speed can do a little damage. unfortunately, it could do more with power trick. a nasty little move that switches attack & defense, now your shuckle will have the best attack you might ever see on a pokemon. plus gyro ball=wiping the floor. unfortunately, this does limits shuckle time in battle a little.

plus throw in toxic, rest and a chesto berry will make shuckle last a while.
 
No its not the best pokemon. One slow sweeper, any physical attacker blows shuckle away.

This is the best sweeping shuckle: Trick Room + Power Trick = Greatest physical sweeper ever!

Ok, you have used trick room, then the other person would be clever and guess your going to use power trick next, you use power trick, and they have a free hit on your defense. Thats a dead shuckle.
Its bad and too risky to do that!
