Buttulon Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) EDIT: Completely forgot about the gym leader help thread. Sorry if this is against the rules. I'll paste this there. Hey there. So, I'm on my second playthrough of the game (came back for E16) and I'm at Samson right now. He pretty much bodies my entire team, as I don't have a lot of good bulk, and I'm pretty vulnerable to fighting type. Heres what I have: PARTY: Ampharos: Level 62 Modest nature Plus Amplified Rock -Thunder -Power Gem -Signal Beam -Electric Terrain Braviary: Level 55 (Just caught) Rash nature Defiant No item -Shadow Claw -Brave Bird -Crush Claw -Sky Drop Metagross: Level 66 (Traded from old save) Bold nature Clear Body TwistedSpoon -Meteor Mash -Zen Headbutt -Bullet Punch -Hammer Arm Nidoqueen: Level 63 Lonely nature Poison Point No item -Crunch -Iron Tail -Earth Power -Shadow Claw Chandelure: Level 63 Naughty nature Flame Body Charcoal -Flame Burst -Shadow Ball -Dark Pulse -Will-O-Wisp Crawdaunt: Level 61 Naive nature Adaptability Blackglasses -Crabhammer -Swords Dance -Knock Off -Rock Smash BOX: Arcanine: Level 60 Docile nature Justified Charcoal -Crunch -Heat Wave -Outrage -Flare Blitz Gardevoir: Level 47 (Been boxed since I got Metagross, could be very useful) Brave nature Telepathy No item -Calm Mind -Magical Leaf -Draining Kiss -Psychic Venusaur: Level 48 (Turned it into an HM slave when I stopped using it) Calm nature Overgrow No item -Strength -Rock Smash -Flash -Petal Dance Dewgong: Level 39 (Leveling it for a special attacking water type) Bashful nature Ice Body No item -Headbutt -Aurora Beam -Aqua Jet -Ice Shard So, Gardevoir is the only promising thing I can see. But I'm not sure how to level it. My team struggles against the clown with the repeatable fights, so its not really viable for grinding right now. Any suggestions?

Log on online on each one with a different username. Then trade Rare Candies from your old save to your new one by trading these 6+6 trashmons back and forth (as Rare Candy carriers). I did this to level up my pokemon for Charlotte, because it would take like 6 hours with Clown Indra... Edited July 19, 2017 by Jess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmm, then I reckon someone helped you trade the Metagross... I assumed you did it yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwinAero Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Would you prefer to do this with your personally trained team? Or would you like some traded mons as help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm. I wouldn't mind taking a traded one or two, as long as they don't make it completely easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfox Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 lemme say this briefly. in Reborn Gardevoir>Metagross most of the time due to its fairy type. also, Crawdaunt won't help much, if at all facing fighting types Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HongaarseBeer Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Get yourself a Trick Room, honestly. As far as I recall Samson's mons are rather fast, except Conkledurr of course. If you can set up a Trick Room, there's more room for you to get your attacks off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yagami Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 @Buttulon You can catch hawchula in route 2 in the morning.I think you have TM nature power so teach it to one of your pokemons because nature power becomes acrobatics in the field.Acrobatics will always have 110 bp in that field.If you have a heart scale teach your gardevoir moonblast.If you had a crobat,you could have sweeped samson with acrobatics.
