if you take advantage of the glitches dont use the stone till you have 5 of them, just give the stone to a pkmn to hold and clone that pkmn 4 or 5 times.
I would choose Starmie over Poliwrath personally. I'm more of a Special Atk/Def person. Also, Starmie has a greater ability to learn moves, giving you the chance to create a better moveset than possible for Poliwrath.
I have also experimented with battling the two. Starmie can beat Poliwrath without using type alignments (Starmie's Psychic vs. Poliwrath's Fighting)
On the other side, Poliwrath can learn a lot of good physical attacks. I have one with Dynamicpunch, despite its low aim. XD
To decide, ask yourself: Do you battle better with physical or special moves?
It all depends on what you are going to use it for. Starmie is a great special sweeper (Surf, Thunder Bolt, Psychic, Ice Beam), whereas Poliwrath can be either Physical or Special. So it depends on who you want.
I second the post above. XP I'd personally choose Starmie, but it depends on what other Pok?mon you have in your team and which type of attacker you need more~ XP
I don't know yet...Cause polywhirls got 2 less.Tomorrow,If polywhirl get more than Staryu,Then i'l stick with polywhirl.But if the votes stay like this then i'll evolve Staryu.
I would evolve Staryu into Starmie because of it's good sp.attk and sp.def.
Also, you can teach it moves like Psychic, Thunderbolt and it learns Recover. It's really strong
