4th Gen Vespiquen or Mothim?

Vespiquen of course. Its an overall better battler no questions asked.
 
kay, thanks. The other members of my team are Garchomp, Empoleon, Lucario, Dialga and Abomasnow, so its mainly defense, and I needed a good offense poke. ah well, post E4 team is what I'm more concerned with.
 
I know, but I already have fighting for lucario and I hate having o of the same types, and I also need a good flying so its between the two; and anway I chose vespiquen.
 
Mothim, ftw.

... though, I never did ever use a vespiqueen.
 
Both of those pokemon are bad. but vespiquen is the better of the 2
 
Yo, Vespiquen has that Defend Order thing - totally cool.
Mothim is just plain and pasty.

There are better Bug / Flying out there -____-
 
Mothim is only useful if you slap a Choice Scarf or Focus Sash on him. Otherwise his low Speed coupled with horrendous defenses will get you nowhere.

Vespiquen, though, makes a surprisingly good wall, considering you give her Defend Order and Roost/Heal Order, so yeah, it's Vespiquen.
 
Mothim, at least it can outurn and OHKO Golem with a specs Energy Ball insted of beeing OHKO itself.
 
Why would he choose mothim just to defeat 1 Golem when all five of his other pokemon can take care of Golem? Besides, he already chose Vespi! 8p
 
I was just saying Vespiquen mave have high defenses, but it's speed very much weakens it.
 
The both suck, but it doesn't matter what you use when you're fighting the E4. Use whatever you want, it doesn't matter.
 
And, Mothim has a great movepool to use: Bug Buzz and Air Slash for double STAB, Energy Ball to kill incoming Rocks, Psychic for Posion-types, Shadow Ball for Ghosts...if only it would have speed equal to it's offenses it could jump into BL.
 
I was going for a Yanmega, but I can't really get him until after the E4, I know my team's pretty terrible [its my first time playing Diamond], but I'm just trying to get through the E4 so I can compose a formidable team for the battle area.

That's fine for the E4. What do you think looks defensive about this team? Dialga has crazy Sp.Att, Lucario is an awesome sweeper, and Garchomp is an offensive beast.

Because the Bug, Psychic and Champ wont do too much to the steel types.
 
That's the idea. Everybody type matches on these guys because that's what you do to beat them. That doesn't make you defensive, it just means you aren't an idiot.
 
re:

I'd go with Vespiquen.
In my previous games it has always been the powerhouse of my team.
But maybe that's cause I love training them. -__-"
 
Neither....they both are horrible...blec...get a pinsir,beautifly,or heracross...or maybe a nice little drapion...
