JUST A COUPLE OFF QUESTIONS

FOR THE SCEPTILE WITH CRUNCH WHO DO I BREED IT WITH

TWO IS THIS GOOD TO ADD AND TAKE SOMETHING OFF FOR IT OR NO

LUGIA
HYDROPUMP /SURF
AEROBLAST
PSYCHIC / THUNDERBOLT
EQ

Training Bagon will also take less EXP points, iirc.

um how exactly do you chose what type of TM 10 you get?
You see, it is based on Deter Values, or how far from the maximum values you are. IT is the correct combination of DVs that gives you the type that you want.<<<Click> Rock Tomb. Regardless, flamethrower > blaze kick, and either bulk up or swords dance (tutor) > fire blast.


- aireal ace
- dragon claw
- extreeme speed
- drgon dance
Earthquake, brick break, iron tail, or rock slide > Dragon Claw. Keep it one type, mixed sweeping isn't that easy (flamethrower hits alot, thats why I said that for your blaziken)


- fireblast
- sword dance
- bite
- slash
Swords Dance is good. But throw on 3 of baton pass, aerial ace, rock slide, Shadow Ball, and body slam/return

and that the pokemon I want to rate
Where are the others in your team? Is this for the emerald battle fronteir?

About that Metagross I tried to get another Adamant one but could'nt do it I got one Careful and one Jolyy these are it's DV's
Careful Beldum's DV's:
HP:24,25
Atk:30,31
Def:20,21
Spd:2,3
Sp.Atk:20,21,22
Sp.Def:20,21

Jolly Beldum's DV's:
HP:0,1
Atk:10,11
Def:20,21
Spd:4,5
Sp.Atk:16,17
Sp.Def:19

The Careful one wins quite easily but I just wanted to check the Nature with you. The moveset is


228Atk 94Spd 76HP 52Def and Sp.Def
Agility
EQ
Meteor Mash
Explosion

I agree Metagross's speed's nothing to write home about, but don't worry about it so much unless you're up against a big meany (ie, some flame spitter like Rayquaza). Shadow Ball or Sludge Bomb over Agility. Earthquake and Meteor Mash are fine, but drop Explosion. Metagross is an excellent physical tank and a reasonable (if done right) overall tank. Therefore, you'll want Aerial Ace or something along those lines there (eg. Sludge Bomb) because the first 3 aren't going to cut it on their own. My personal opinion is Brick Break and Shadow Ball, then you build from there, but some say Meteor Mash (for STAB) over Brick Break. Your choice there.

More importantly, put your EVs together. I agree with the Speed, SD, and the Att, but you don't really need HP here. Metagross's HP is reasonable enough, and its defense is excellent. Instead, focus on 3 (primary and 2 secondaries) so you get more out of them. I'd suggest a bucketload of Att, and a bunch of SD, and dump the remainder in speed (eg. 252-Att 150-SD 108-Speed)


Thanks in advance.

I'm trying a new team for link battles

hydropump
d-claw
doubleedge
fly

All of these moves need to be replaced. Breed for D-Dance, and then put on Earth Quake, Aerial Ace, Rock Slide. Or even Steel Wing or Brick Break instead.


thunder
dig
crunch
reflect

Thunder Bolt for Thunder. You could go for a Special Hidden Power like Ice or Grass for Dig. If not use Thunder Wave.


razorleaf
gigadrain
bodyslam
lightscreen

Meganium is frail when it comes to making moves. You could go for a Sunny-Beaming set (Solar Beam, Sunny Day, Synthesis, and HP Fire or Giga Drain).


t-bolt
hypnosis
dreameater
hiddenpower(Ice)

Replace Hypnosis for Psychic, put on Fire Punch for Dream Eater. And use Calm Mind for HP Ice.


recover
psykic
fly
d-claw

Get rid of Fly and Recover for Thunder Bolt, and Ice Beam. You could also use Calm Mind for Dragon Claw if you like but it can stay.


doubleedge
irontail
dig
hyperbeam

how is this lugia?

lv 100 serius nature
attacks



First thing to do is realize that Lugia's best points are its defensive stats. Therefore, any attack you put on will not be of terribly great effect unlike (say) Rayquaza. Play to your strengths, not your weaknesses: consider a Hitmonchan (great attack but terrible SA) using elemental punches.

Next, survey your movepool: Your offensive stats are low, so your next option is your movepool. Your choice is physical or special, and the pool is reasonably large enough that you're not uncomfortably restricted, unlike Gyarados for example.

Last, its role in battle: Clearly a sponge, though it needs offensive ability. Therefore consider EV training carefully. Being a sponge, 1 move is immediately necessary: Recover. Otherwise, consider your choices carefully.



surf
earthquake
psychic
aeroblast



Aeroblast is fine, as is Psychic. Recover over Surf, and Earthquake is fine. In this case, the bulk of your offensive effort is physical in nature. Stick with high powered moves. Surf is simple damage, Earthquake can compoud things (Dig, partners) and Aeroblast has a high crit rate. Psychic (plain and simple) is STAB.



or


areal ace
recover
thunderbolt
eq



If you're using a flying move, go with Aeroblast. As I said your primary role is a sponge so don't worry about hitting so much. Thunderbolt's fine, but since you've already a physical option, use Psychic over Earthquake. Otherwise, consider Shadow Ball instead.





what do u prefer or i could clone it on emerald and have both but i cant decide they are both good



Your poke, so up to you. More improtantly, remember you have other options open to you: Ice Beam, Giga Drain, Steel Wing, Light Sreen, Shock Wave, and Reflect. Ice Beam can freeze like Thunderbolt can Paralyze (unlike Surf), Giga Drain is good for spongers (healtH), and LS/R halve damage. Shock Wave is like a loose plug in that it's basically Aerial Ace in special mode.

my team woo! Their not EV trained cause ive only just found out about it and they all know the HM's cause this is the team I use all the time, more convient.



More convenient to have a couple of HM slaves instead.




Dragon Claw
Flash
Waterfall
Psychic



Taking into account what's up there, drop Waterfall and Flash for Recover/Thunderbolt and Ice Beam.




Thunder bolt
Strength
Thunder
Double Team



Crunch over Thunder, Agility or HP Special over Strength.




Leaf Blade
Giga Drain
Cut
Solerbeam



Breed for Crunch over Giga Drain, Thunderpunch over Cut, Dragon Claw or Dragon Breath (breed) over Solarbeam.





Flamethrower
Skyuppercut
Fireblast
Blaze Kick



Consider Brick Break over Sky Uppercut, Focus Energy over Flamethrower, and Slash over Fire Blast.





Dive
Earthquake
Surf
Protect



Surf and Earthquake are fine, Brick Break or Rock Slide over Dive, HP Ghost or Endeavour over Protect.





Dragon Breath
Rock Smash (temted to replace)
Fly
Flamethrower



Salamence is physical in nature (go look up the psydex). Steel Wing, Earthquake, Aerial Ace, or Rock Slide over Fly, Rock Smash, and Flamethrower. Dragon Breath is alright (STAB) but I advise changing it for another physical.




Their all at level 74 as well!

these are just a whole heap of my stuff that i need checking up on

sceptile
dragon claw
eq
crunch
leaf blade / leech seed / giga drain

thinking or adding a thunderpunch in there somewhere
i really like him he is always with me he is my starter
Special sweeper =/= EQ. t-punch or leech seed instead. Definately not giga drain, though.

blazekein
flamethrower
skyuppercut
thunderpunch
areal ace
Instead of aerial ace and t-punch, put on swords dance/bullk up and EQ/Rock Slide.

NOTE I WANT EQ SOMEWHERE HERE IF NEEDED

swampmert
icebeam
surf
eq
rock tomb
Curse/Rest/Roar/Rock Slide/Brick Break > Rock Tomb.

mightyeena (dont ask why its lv 100 just give me good moves)
crunch
shadowball
swagger
??? currently takedown
Poison fang > crunch. iron tail/return > take down. HP Fighting is an option, if you have it.

shiftry (again dont ask)
mega dragin (giga not enough pp)
shadow ball (i think)
sythesis
swagger
Lots of options - shadow ball + brick break (no resist), extra sensory, Sunnybeam, faint attack, nature power (ok, so that move works better elsewhere). Depends on what you want.

Groudon
solarbeam (sunrays)
eq
flamethrower (sun always hits + more power)
??? currently bulk up
Swords Dance > Bulk up, trust me. Sunny beam groudon isn't that good, go for physical. EQ, Rock Slide, Swords Dance, Flamethrower/HP (Physical)

salamence
hydropump
crunch
flamethrower
dragon claw
AHHHHHHHHH. No elemence, please. Dragon Dance, EQ, Rock Slide, Aerial Ace.

charzard
flamethrower
rockslide
areal ace
brick breack (mabye eq)
I like dragon dance on there, and brick break so it hits some rock types better (then again, I use him as a good t-tar counter when going against my friend).

gyarados
dragon dance
surf
ice beam
eq
Dragon Dance, EQ, HP Flying/Rock/Iron Tail, Return/Substitute. thats about all of the useful moves it gets (not even wing attack :O )

feraligatr
surf
ice beam
areal ace
eq
Surf, Ice Beam, Crunch, Rest. Or, Swords Dance, EQ, Rock Slide, Aerial Ace/Ice beam/Brick Break. Ice beam takes out the ony 2 that resist eq and rock slide. Aerial Ace hits grasses and fighting types hard. Brick Break takes out darks.

clefable (stupid idea to raise)
ice beam
metronome
flamethrower
calm mind
Put on softboiled/wish > metronome, and t-bolt > flamethrower.

crobat (shinie yay read sig)
crunch (if can not sure) (currently toxic)
areal ace
hyper beam
sludgebomb
No. shadow ball > hyper beam. HP Fighting > crunch/toxic.

metagross @ bright powder:

meteor mash
explosion
shadow ball
psychic(i will replace this with EQ if i get a TM)



Drop Bright Powder for Shell Bell or Lum Berry. Drop Exlosion for Sludge Bomb and Psychic for Earthquake (would be good) or Aerial Ace (if possible) or Brick Break (for example: Chansey or a light-screener).




blaziken @ focus band:

blaze kick
sky uppercut
rock slide
slash(going to replace with thunderpunch very soon)



Drop the Band for Scope Lens or Shell Bell or Lum Berry. Keep Slash and Blaze Kick, consider Brick Break over Sky Uppercut, and drop Rock Slide for Focus Energy.



tyranitar @ quick claw:

earthquake
rock slide
crunch
hyper beam(for back-up)



Drop Quick Claw for Lum Berry or Shell Bell. Drop Hyperbeam for Brick Break or Substitute, Crunch for Shadow Ball or Focus Punch, and consider Aerial Ace over Rock Slide.



kyogre @ leftovers:

thunder
ice beam
hydro pump
calm mind


Standard-ish, Surf over hydropump



groudon @ shell bell:

earthquake
rock slide
bulk up
solarbeam(i dont want it so please tell me another good move)



Very simple, my friend, go to http://www.psypokes.com/dex/psydex/383/all
The best site out there for people like you looking for free standard pokemon advice.



sceptile @ scope lens:
leaf blade
thunderpunch
dragon claw
iron tail(so i cant lose to mirror coat)



Drop the Scope for a Lum or Shell Bell. Breed for Modest and Crunch.

This guy's to be used primarely in the Battle Dome, specifically to take down Dome Ace Tucker (I have a Sceptile to use on his Swampert).

- Niave @ ?
E.V.'s - 252 Att, 252 Spd, 6 HP
Bulk Up
EQ
Rockslide
Flamethrower

I do not want a Cricten (or whatever).



Huh? I don't use Crickets myself, but whatever. Breed for Adamant then, forget speed, EVs as they are. Drop Bulk Up for Aerial Ace or Brick Break, and consider Mirror Move over Rock Slide.

soo....rate my team!

Please would be nice.

lvl 61 Ninetales

grudge
flamethrower
fire spin
imprison



Drop Fire Spin for Substitute or Confuse Ray. Spite or Will-o-Wisp over Imprison.



lvl 74 kyogre

hydropump
rest
sheer cold
surf



Thunder over Hydropump, Ice Beam over Sheer Cold, Calm Mind or Substitute over Rest.



lvl 67 gengar

psychic
hypnosis
nightmare
dream eater



Reasonably standard, consider Giga Drain or Thunderbolt over Nightmare.



lvl 100 rayquaza

rest
extremespeed
outrage
fly



Decide spec and check http://www.psypokes.com/dex/psydex/384/all




lvl 73 groudon

fire blast
rest
fissure
solarbeam



Check http://www.psypokes.com/dex/psydex/383/all




P.S. Ninetales, kyogre, rayquaza, and groudon had the beneficial virus Poke'Rus

havent decided last member...possibly palkia, mespirit, uxie, azelf, or gardevoir, or some starter.



With all those sweepers? Nah, go with a tanker. Maybe Lugia.

is this a good entei for my friend he wanted to ask u guys is this a good team of three i personaly think no one can beat him

entei nature seriues
moves
sunny day
solarbeam (from above hits always and destroys all water types goanna hurt it)
flamethrower
eq (i think is there if not than it must be calm mind i forget)



*sigh* Entei is a physical sweeper: http://www.psypokes.com/dex/psydex/244/all
so while yes special moves are fine, you should be looking at physical attacks: Stomp, Substitute, Iron Tail, Facade. That last move is Calm Mind, 'cuz Entei can't learn Earthquake. Worst case is a mixed sweeper. Can't change nature, but a Modest would be nice here.



also he has another poke it has
tyranitar timid nature
icebeam
eq
areal ace
thunder bolt / crunch



A timid Tyranitar? Interesting. Again, a physical sweeper. Earthqake and Aerial Ace are fine, Brick Break, Iron Tail, Thunderwave, Ancient Power, Stomp, Dragon Dance over Ice Beam, Thunderbolt and Crunch. An Adamant nature would be nice. Or an Impish.



lastly registeel
superpower
eq
areal ace
thunderbolt



Explosion over Superpower. Your high defenses should get and hold you to the end of your HP bar in time for it.
