    I am putting a Typhlosion on my team and I need movesets, what EV's should I work on etc. Right now it's moves are really bad (three fire moves) and it needs help.
     
    Typhlosion has a bad movepool, but heres a moveset for you:

    Flamethrower
    Thunderpunch
    Earthquake
    Toxic

    Note that Thunderpunch is a move tutor move in Emerald version.

    But I reccomend the Typhlosion moveset here:

    EDIT: I will not post links to other websites. I will read and follow the rules of PC
     
    Thyplosion = "Hmm I'm not sure if it's the worst of all starters, or if it's Feralgiatr?"

    Thyplosion- [attack + / sp.atk -] @ salac berry
    EV: attack and speed
    -howl/endure
    -earthquake
    -some physical move stuff
    -overheat

    Terrible Pokemon... overshadowed at everything it can possibly do. The best that I can think of is to try to howl once, then launch physical attacks. Hope that you get salac kicking and hopefully sweep, with Blaze + Overheat as special attack backup =/

    Whatever it can do, the two other fire starters can do it better, and it's not funny when all the other 3 grass starters can OHKO you too, yet you cannot OHKO any one of them.
     
    Typhlosion's choice of special moves is very limited, and it's attack stat is only above average.

    Typhlosion@Lum/Salac Berry
    EV: 252 Sp Att, 252 Speed, 6 Sp Def
    Nature: + Sp Att, - Att
    Flamethrower
    Sunny Day
    Thunderpunch
    Quick Attack

    OR
    Typhlosion@Salac Berry
    EV: 252 Att, 252 Speed, 6 Sp Def
    Nature: + Att, - Sp Att
    Overheat
    Endure (Emerald Move Tutors)/Howl
    Reversal
    Rock Slide/Quick Attack
     
    Doggone it, I broke a rule about not posting links to other websites.

    *sweatdrop*

    *mutters random stuff to self*

    *waits to get a scolding*

    accidents happen...
     
    Typlosion@Salac Berry/Petaya Berry
    Flamethrower
    HP Grass
    Substitute
    Sunny Day

    Hey, why not use Sunny Day+Blaze+STAB+Petaya Berry(Maybe)?
     
    Hmmm,gots one.

    Typhlosion@Salac Berry
    Flamethrower
    Overheat
    Earthquake
    ~~~~~~

    Go with toothy,since he's the expert.

    Two fire attacks? And where's the EV distribution?

    Typhlosion can't even mixed sweep well, and if you want Reversal, you're going to need Endure.

    Adam, you might want to read the Advanced Trainer Guide already, cos you obviously haven't yet.
     
    Now if i posted something like that they would call me "mean"
    ^^


    Blah blah blah
    Typhlosion[jolly]
    EVs - Sp, Att, SpAtt
    rockslide
    earthquake
    focus punch/howl/roar/something physical
    over heat

    overheat and flamethrower has its uses on one pokemon
    but its not this
     
    Overheat and flamethrower IS actually ok in Adamhays's situation. What's not ok about his moveset is reveral without substitute or endure, not the two fire attacks.
     
    And I am mean, so what's your point, Ice Demon? :-p
     
    Bah, mabye I should take him out of my team, but I'm gonna test him out for a bit. thanks for the suggestions, I'll decide which i'll pick.
