The Captain Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Also, as I have proved and tested over countless Random WiFi Battles, Rain Dance Tornadus and Shiny Event Raikou with Thunder and Weather Ball is an extremely potent combo.

CaT in Rogue Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Sleep Powder and Leech Seed are also pretty good if you're up against a tough opponent. On another note, I recognize a few of you from PokeCommunity Forums. Quote "Whether that is right or not...I also...as a Rider...have a wish that I want to fulfill."

sirbibbleton Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I bred a 31 Attack/31 Special Attack/31 Speed Deino and got a Hasty 31 Attack./31 Speed Zekrom while the forum was down, and I still cannot decide which EV spread I should give Deino so it can be a mixed attacker...nature on deino? keep in mind that, what with pokesav and RNGs, perfect IVs aren't such a huge deal nowadays. and mixdreigon isn't the best in the world ever since it has such a fantastic special movepool, and mixmence out-classes it anyways. It's Naive. And while it's true in general, I felt Hydreigon is better in disposing Jellicent, Reuniclus, and other "bulky", common pokemon who are weak to Crunch (STAB). Also because a certain Salamence I have literally has 0 IVs in Special Attack (Naive too). -__- It's a mixed Dragon Dancer though, so... And yes, I do know about competitive battling, so I don't need team advice or stuff like that... thanks for your advice tho. And I don't pokesav because I don't know how to use it, and I don't know how to RNG either and don't want to know.

~Takava Nirhii~ Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I've been thinking of maybe trying out EV training, taking it out for a spin before I start work on my Random Matchup team. Any one suggest a good Pokemon to EV train for a beginner?

Ballom Nom Nom Posted October 15, 2011 Author Share Posted October 15, 2011 A physical/special/mixed sweeper would be the easiest, because you can get routes with every wild Poke giving the same EV for Attack, Speed, or Sp. Attack (Route 1, Celestial Tower, any waterway). ~B~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I don't pokesav because I don't know how to use it, and I don't know how to RNG either and don't want to know. fair enough, ttar is usually better to deal with both of those, but ok. i'd also like to point out that max sp.a dark pulse is a solid 2hko on 252/0 jellicent w/ life orb, but max attack crunch only ohkos 252/216 jellicent after rocks + 2 layers of spikes, but it will ohko 100% of the time. 156 attack EVs are enough to always KO jellicent after rocks + 2 layers of spikes, and it'll do 80.7% - 95.3% to 252/0 reuniclus. max speed with the rest dumped in sp.a is probably the best way to go, if your team is otherwise threatened by those two pokes. any ideas on what moves you want on it? crunch is a given, as is draco meteor, since you aren't running max sp.a. other ideas?

I might throw in Surf or something, though it might lose coverage/power with that move. Earthquake can be considered, but it might just end up being a worse Salamence clone only redeeming itself with Crunch. Focus Blast is powerful but inaccurate. The three aforementioned moves can deal with Heatran though, who otherwise walls it. No Dark Pulse since I couldn't import an Arbok.

Archer Vonn Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 sounds workable, i wouldn't run surf since it has minimal investment. heatran -does- wall it but putting surf on it would be too weak. focus miss -should- be considered, even though it isnt very reliable. fighting/dark has great neutral coverage.

Artezza Magnus Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I've been meaning to finish the Gen V pokédex, but I haven't payed much attention to porting over all my old 'mons from Pearl into White. So many other things that need to be done...*stares longingly at Pokémon cartridges* I believe I made a fully trained UU team sometime when the site was down...didn't really think too much about it, just started making pokémon that ranked amongst my favourites and six of them happened to be UU.

Saint-14 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Have any of you read Black Adventures comic. It's the best interpretation of Pokemon EVER!!! But not recommended for those under 14. Some themes are suggestive (heck, the whole premise of the comic is!). Quote BZPRPG: Akamu, Toa of Ice Talk to me about Destiny!

Ballom Nom Nom Posted October 16, 2011 Author Share Posted October 16, 2011 (edited) Haxorus, come to think of it, I've heard about some of those Pokemon Manga comics. They're pretty hardcore compared to the games, since they're for more mature audiences than the average Pokemon player. From what I recall, my friend told me that in the comics, Pokemon regularly kill each other in the arena! To make matters worse, guns apparently exist in this Pokemon universe (if you recall, the only episode of the TV show to ever feature a gun was banned), and so Archie and Maxie shot and killed each other in a duel!That's serious stuff right there. I'm glad the games are nowhere near that violent. ~B~ Edited October 16, 2011 by Ballom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyska Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Black Adventures is a fanmade webcomic, rather than a canon manga. The Pokemon being able to talk is an entertaining touch, but it sort of negates N being special if everyone can talk to their Pokemon. Also contains gratituous crossdressing.

The Captain Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Is a physical Zoroark completely pointless?
