  1. Oh yeah! I remember thinking about weatherball in the beginning of my run, but I forgot all about it. It's definitely stronger than using secret power: fire haha. Thanks for the suggestion. Though I would have to use Roserade or Victreebell, of which Victreebell is probably the better choice.
  2. Swalot has a something that resembles a beard - maybe not a lategame team candidate, but useable in the early game I think. Kricketune is obviously nice and bearded as well You could also argue Samurott and Walrein have beards.
  3. Hey I've finally reached the Elite 4 in my mono-grass run. I'm trying to come up with what pokemon to bring, so I'd like to hear what any of you think. Maybe some of you have already done a mono-grass run and know what's good. So far I'm definitely bringing the following two: Ferrothorn: - Very tough and hits like a truck. Is one of the only grass types you can safely switch into flying types. Can beat up fairy-types and stall out guys with toxic if needed. Mega Sceptile: - Very fast, best counter against dragon types I've got, so I think it's a must have for Elias and Lin's Garchomp and Hydregion. I think giving it secret power rock could also be useful. I'm more unsure of the following: Breloom - Technician and choice band makes a strong priority mach punch, but I'm afraid it might have outlived it's usefulness, because it is very frail, so it dies if it doesn't take out whatever it's up against. I could also bring a sun-team chlorophyll package: Whimsicott: - With prankster it's guaranteed to set up sun, can also paralyze with stun spore, but otherwise it's very frail and even with max sp.atk. it doesn't deal much damage. Leavanny: - My current one is max attack and with a good investment in HP, under sun it can really set up on special attackers, because it is quite bulky. But I don't know how often that might come up. It also has sticky web, which might be useful. Exeggutor: - Pretty useless without sun, but can pack quite a punch. Sadly there aren't a lot of mons weak to grass in the Elite 4, so it might not be that good. Venusaur: - Pretty strong, but I don't know how usefull it's going to be. Sludge bomb can help with fairy types, sleep powder might also help beat some mons. My biggest problem is that I am very weak against steel types. Breloom can deal with some, but I'm very afraid of Anna's Mega Metagross and Lin's Celesteela, since I Breloom definitely can't beat them. I'm also weak to fire-types, but there aren't a lot of those in the Elite 4, so I don't think I need to bring any counters. What do you think might be useful?
  4. That's probably where I went wrong. Thank you for your help :))
  5. Hey, I'm trying to get chespin from that lady with the sick husband. I already have the oddishweed, but I can't find her at 7th street. I've looked for her during the morning from what I feel like is every possible clock in between 5am to 11am, but she's just not there. Do any of you have any idea what I am doing wrong?
  6. Thanks guys. I'll get back to ya once I actually get around to adapting some of these strats. This community really keeps being amazing.
  7. Hey people. I've reached Hardy's gym in my normal monotype run. Generally I haven't had many problems in this run except Kiki and Amaria. My team isn't really optimized in terms of IVs and stuff like that because I find breeding and IV training tedious, but the natures are generally useful. Another problem is that I didn't fund all of the restoration projects so I think that means I am not able to get Lopunite, which is a bummer since I imagine mega-Lopunny would be useful. My team's the following. Slaking --------- naive nature ---- Fist Plate -Hammer Arm -Strength -Ice Punch -Punishment Porygon Z ------- Hasty nature ---- Wise Glasses ---- Adaptability Trick Room/Thunder Wave/Psychic Hyper Beam Zap Cannon Signal Beam Diggersby ----- Gentle Nature ---- Iron Plate --- Huge Power -Earthquake -Strength -Hammer Arm -Iron Tail Snorlax ----- Hardy Nature ---- Metal Coat --- Thick Fat -Belly Drum -Body Slam -Amnesia -Heavy Slam Pyroar ----- Naive Nature --- Charcoal ---- Moxie -Will-O-Wisp -Overheat -Headbut -Crunch Ditto ---- Quick Powder ---- Imposter -Transform Pidgeot ---- Naive Nature --- Pidgeotite -Fly -Hurricane -Tailwind -Mirror Move Those are the Pokemon that are currently around lvl. 88-90. My problem is pretty much that I have a hard time dealing with his opening of Aerodactyl and Gigalith. I'm not really able to do much against them since they destroy any opening I make unless I KO one of them. So far my best attempts have involved starting with paralyzing Aerodactyl and hitting Gigalith with Slakings Hammer Arm, which puts it to about 1/3rd hit points. Then I sent out Ditto to copy mega-Aerodactyl, hit Gigalith and send out Snorlax to hit Aerodactyl with Heavy Slam, which puts it in the red, but Aerodactyl KO's Ditto. I sent out Diggersby, he sends out Archeops. Snorlax OH's Archeops after it hurts Diggersby and Snorlax pretty bad and Diggersby wipes out Aerodactyl, but then Lycanroc pretty much destroys me. I don't really know what to do ... Anybody got any ideas for better mons or maybe a strategy I haven't seen. Anyone else done a Normal Mono-run?
  8. I finally caught one. I must have just been unlucky.
  9. Sorry, I meant route 4 as well. I'll try searching for it again, but I've been doing it for quite some time now.
  10. Hello, I'm currently playing through a Dark Type Monorun and I can't seem to encounter a pawniard on route 3 even though all of the on-the-hunt threats and my own memory inform me that it should be available there. Has it just become more rare since episode 18, am I ust being unlucky or has its location changed? Thanks in advance!
  11. Happy Birthday :D, i hope that you will have a fun day ^^
