ludicolo has some usefulness thought. leech seed and rain dish. and its def stats is good too. but i don't bother another water or grass pkms since i got azumaril and breloom

you CAN make toxicroak learn earthquake in-game. trust me, my toxicroak got earthquake, till i realized that it's not that great and replace it with cross chop. it's all through multi-chain-breeding (in game, you can breed TM moves to egg as well as egg moves, but it's a really hard work). for my toxicroak: cross chop/ poison jab/ sucker punch/ swagger (face it, 50% hitting itself is ridiculous). if you REALLY want that Earthquake, i'll tell you how to breed it, but if you don't like "hard work" then fine :v :v

totally agree. the confused status is OP in-game. 50%. ridiculous. but why don't you expect for eviolet?? duclops with eviolets is MUCH bulkier than dusknoir

i knew that :v :v, but the fact is bastiodon is totally shitty in-game or competitive, i don't eve mind using it. if you just use him to deal with these situations, and it can do nothing else beside this, so i don't understand at all. but magnezone and wobuffet is totally different. their usefulness is WAY BETTER (one can trap, and one can kill things). another candidate for your strategy is aggron. it's good in-game, and it can learn both endeavor and metal burst. but Rock Head+ Head Smash >>>>>>>> Sturdy + metal burst. so....it's your choice @@

miror coat just work because arceus only got sp.atk move. if you face a physical atk or a drak type, it won't work. but from now on, we got anther PERFECT pkm for these situations, namely WOBUFFET :v :v (sash or band- anything you like) this is so much patience. if you want to use this strategy, i got another better combo: use whimsicott with prankster leech seed, let it die. then send someone with sturdy and endeavor move. one-turn-kill (endeavor make sure your opponent got 1 HP left, and it will drain to you with leech seed, even leftover regen can't save it)

these are the best moveset for fire pokemon in-game: 1, Blaziken: sword dance-flare blitz- high jump kick- whatever u like (me: brave bird) 2, Arcanine: flare blitz (of course)- crunch (good)- CLOSE COMBAT (it is a "must", or else you can do NOTHING to rock type, very good coverage)- extreamespeed/ or whatever you like (kick outrage to another side dude. 120 base power, but mostly we can get so much better dragon to use like flygon and tyrantrum, even nasty plot lucario will be much more superior, and u got lock to a move that u got no STAB or super eff much in game) 3, darmatian: see from vinny. can't be aggree more. 4, Infernape: close combat and flare blitz- mach punch/ thunderpunch (coverage water) and anything you like. be sure to use iron fist ability. 5, chandelure: look at this: FIRE BLAST- ENERGY BALL (THE BEST FOR WATER TYPE)- SHADOW BALL- and whatever you like: will-o-wisp/ confuse ray/ substitue 6, ninetales: the only grass move you can get for him is energy ball right now. noway vulplix can learn solarbeam through breeding. so: fire blast/ extrasensorry/ energy ball/ will o wisp or nasty plot (trust me, if you are not using a tanker ninetales, 2 status move for him is useless, and nasty plot isn't that good for him, bcz he die really quickly after one hit) 7, houndoom: this is the best moveset for him: SUNNY DAY/ SOLARBEAM/ FLAMETHROWER/ DARKPULSE. its just incredible. set up move like nasty plot??? my moveset can almost do EVERYTHING BETTER after one sunny day. can you set up in front of water type like sunny day?? stop telling me like "we don't have TM energy ball or solarbeam or sword dance...blah blah blah blah or thunder punch blah blah blah...", you CAN get these moves through breeding (gen V mechanic breeding for details), or i can post a picture of my own pokemons in-game and they got these move for you to see

if you think train a deino to lv 64 is painful, imo building its moveset even more painful , face it, outside dragon pulse and dark pulse (tks god ame gave us this in epi 11), it needs A LOT OF BREEDING to make itself become one-man-show in game. those 2 moves got poor coverage. what else??? u can mix it with outrage- but who use outrage when d.pulse can always does better damage? we CAN'T get earth power to it yet (trust me, no-way-at-all), and maybe u can breed charizard with a female deino for it to learn flamethrower or fire blast. now that's something useful tho (IF ONLY YOU CHOOSE CHAMANDER FROM START). but it need.....10000 steps to hatch (if u can get flame body, still 5000 steps), and at least 10-15 eggs average to have a good IVs one. and it's realllllly hurt..... so even if i can get one, no-way i will build it and train it. too much effort and the result is not quite as you expect really. basically its usefulness is poor not because i underestimated it, but it cannot reach the useful TM or tutor like in normal game

lol, and i hope you already got helix fossil in your bag, or else the quest won't start. for me, i spend at least 1 week to find that fossil *cry*

if you want a better aggron: kick your aggron into trash can and build a new one. these are steps: step 1: catch a female aron (good IV-ignore nature) step 2: do the quest helix and get a male tyrunt, evolve it to tyrantrum till it get Head Smash and Earthquake (tyrantrum is a very good pokemon, so it's not waste of time at all) step 3: breed female aron with male tyrantrum---> then you can get a aron with BOTH HEAD SMASH AND EARTHQUAKE. then buy ability capsule to get Rock Head ability and change nature to adamant. then train it- max atk and max HP EV. there you go. you 'll get a aggron with this moveset: Head Smash- EQ- Double edge- Iron tail/ Metal burst/ whatever you like. think about it: 2 STAB with 150 and 100 power (so it is 225 and 150 after counting STAB), Earthquake is TOO FAMOUS, and double edge 120 power WITHOUT RECOIL (like head smash). is that enough for you?? just don't use him in front of Fighting or Ground type or sp.atker pkm, and enjoy the one-man-show :v

corsola?? oh my god i'm totally forgot about this thing. looking for it right now :v :v, when cloyster is obtainable, he will love the rock blast from this little cute corsola

can't wait till epi 12 comes out :v :v :v good job everyone :v

the game using gen V's breeding mechanic, so you CAN breed TM moves AND egg moves to the egg. trust me, my archeop got earthquake :v

my fav is ARCEUS. why? simple. it's God. want another reason? i don't think we need more :v

i think you're not a poke-trainer "maniac" like me :v :v. only 5 times??? do you know how i get my gyarados above with that IVs? i breed it for 4 GENERATIONS (basically he is GRAND-GRAND SON of my first magikarp- which actually i have to reset like 50 times to get a magikarp with good IVs), and each generation i need at leat 10 eggs, so it is total of >50 eggs to get that gyarados- AT LEAST 10 HOURS IN-GAME. if i can get power anklet or some IVs transfer item, it could be shorter than this process

it's true. my heracross destroy 5 luna's pkms, except sabeyle (c'mon, anyone want a moxie heracross got prankster burn? maybe guts heracross will love it, but my hera doesn't

starly- staraptor in episode 9 COMPLETELY KICK that braviary in the @ss for sure. reckless- brave bird- double edge- close combat- and whatever you want (me: endeavor) is SO MUCH MORE POWER and USEFUL than braviary's superpower and that low speed and by the way: only 26 IVs and that make you happy?? sorry but if you want a good physical sweep, don't take anything less than 30 IVs atk OR if it has >=26 IVs atk, the IV speed must be >=30 like this: (i don't even feel happy for my staraptor because of sp.def IVs, but its job always done before anything can touch it so....)

CLOSE COMBAT ON ARCANINE!! it's a simple breed, and it's powerful. u-turn for archeop of course. it's useful on everything, in-game, even after-game for some kinds like battle tower, even competitive.

i got a level 41 team pick up, and i NEVER got blast powder and ultra ball (only great ball and poke ball), but maybe i'm just unlucky but in-game, i found that level ball is very useful. you can buy it in department store (maybe 3th-4th floor i don't remember exactly) just 300$ for one ball. just use it.

you can go back to epi 10. it's already an egg togepi event in-game. so i don't think something that "cute" will be all over a mountain....especially where Absol is around you know... wolfs are always hungry...and eggs have many nutrients... and know what, i'm thinking of a view that Larvitar stand in the top of the mountain and ROAR like Katy Perry. why not??? of course in the top of the mountain we'll have an event pokemon, so just make it REALLY HARD to get one, and larvitar is a worthy prize :v

this update table is WRONG. maybe it's just the pickup tabkle for episode 9, from episode 10 Ame had changed it, so we can't get rare candy in level 41 (for now in epi 11: at least level 81 to get rare candy). the reason is simple: you can farm infinite money and rare candy with level 100 team pickup

i know right :v, so we should breed as many as possible in this episode for our team, like Earthquake, Sword Dance, Stone Edge, Thunderbolt, Ice beam, Sludge Bomb...... (ssshhhhhh, keep it silent, Ame might be hearing this....)

agree with the Smeargle- it's really inconvenient to use him breeding moves. maybe some really necessary and rare moves, but now it's just too boring and annoying to use, even it can breed ANY moves to Field group and tks for the sword dance set, but really i just curious, i don't use sword dance breloom since gen VI came out, and it got replaced by Rock Tomb. almost power of Stone Edge (90 to 100), but got 15% more accurate, and lower op. speed and yeah: Shroomish hunting is painful one. after 4 hours just run like a wild animal in the island, i only meet 3 Shroomishs, and 2 of them got really bad IVs/ tks god for the third, a female one with acceptable IVs EDIT: the sleep turns in gen VI now got maximum of 3???? omg... another nerf for spore

actually not "any" pokemon, i think i just go with these "power" pokemons in-game. after the last topic about Earthquake i got a lot of inspirations to start this topic. Because we can't access to those useful TMs, basically we can only build some good moves to pokemon through breeding- and even harder: multi- chain- breeding (i'll call it short for MCB from now on) and here we go: 1, Blaziken: Ok, it's uber blah blah blah, so basically the only thing i want to build here is Sword Dance. That terra'fying set up move will NEVER exist in this game 'till the end and after-game-story. The fact is it's perfect for blaziken to use, completely destroy everything after a boost. It's easy to get this, the only problem is Female Torchic/ Blaziken is so hard to get (12.5%), and we even need the one with good IVs (like...1% at all) Breed: Male Ratticate/ Leafeon/ Sandslash...(anyone in the Field Breeding section with Sword Dance) + Female Blaziken/ Torchic---->get this 2, Gengar: Gengar's naturally moveset is lack of coverage: these are some good moves we can get through level up: Shadow Ball, Destiny Bond, Confuse ray and... that's it! (sorry i don;t like that 55% Hypnosis and Dream eater combo @@) so how a bout this move set: Shadow Ball (of course) Destiny Bond (anything i can't kill, i just get him down with me ) Thunderbolt (now i'm talking about Sludge Bomb (FAIRYYYYY!!!!) MCB: male Muk/ Grimer with sludge Bomb+ female Stunfisk----> male stunfisk, level up 45 to get both Thunderbolt and Sludge Bomb, + Female Gengar/ Gastly---> got the result 3, Heracross: now i remember i said about this dude before, just to make sure he got a powerful moveset here: Close combat Megahorn Stone Edge Earthquake MCB: Male Flygon with earthquake + female Shuckle--> male shuckle, level up this thing (i know it's hard, but it's worthy) to learn both earthquake and Stone Edge, breed with Female Heracross---> simple 4, Chandelure: thanks to Lost Lore, i get this "thing" just a couple of hours ago, and oh men, destroy everything moveset: Flamethrower Energy Ball Shadow Ball Will-o-wisp/ Overheat/ whatever you want MCB: Torkoal with Flamethrower---> Snubull with Flame (i will not tell about gender anymore, you should familiar with it)---> Swirlix with Flame, level it up to learn Energy Ball----> Castform with both move----> Litwick (got both Energy Ball and flamethrower) 5, Hitmonchan with elemental punch: get Hitmonchan and elemental punch is a easy step. He learn both 3 punch at lv 36. and A LOT POKEMONS can use this to make their moveset coverage all types as well, especially Infernape and Machamp, so we got these moveset after breeding: Infernape: Closecombat Flare Blitz Mach Punch Thunder Punch Machamp: Dynamic Punch Thunder Punch Ice Punch Bullet Punch/ Stone edge? (anyone know how to breed Stone edge for machamp? i'm surely going to search for it in a couple of day and i will edit this) 6, Breloom: its name already said it all. Best fighting type pkm in gen V. but in gen VI now i think it got some bad points, especially those grass immune to Spore now. but in-game, he's still a beast. anything cannot OHKO him will die eventually. moveset: Spore Force Palm (yeah, a sub for Low Sweep in gen V, and it's perfect) Bullet seed (breed it by a male Sunflora) Mach punch (too obvious??)/ or Rock Tomb (now that's new, it works perfectly with technician, and the side effect is just like Low Sweep, but we don't have this TM now, so hopefully for Rock badge)/ or Sword dance (anyone know how to breed this move AND bullet seed for one breloom?) 7, Venusaur: moveset: Sleep Powder Growth Sludge Bomb Giga drain i will let this move for you to figured out :v :v, because it's TOO POWERFUL, especially with chlorophill and drought ninetale + heat rock. even when the sun fade away, it's too late for anything to check it. OK, so i'll stop for now. still got about 3-5 more pkms but they are not really "powerful" like these above. anyone can come up with new powerful movesets- just comment in here and myself or an admin can edit this post for anyone want to build their team to the maximum power. tks for reading this ^^
