WaterMystic Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 (edited) Hey guys, I'm a bit stuck here. Samson's kicking my ass and I need to know what adjustments I need to make to have a smoother run against him. (Mostly relying on dumbluck here.) Ampharos - Plus - Signal Beam - Light Screen - Thunder Wave - Discharge I'm mostly using him to take cripple Conkeldurr and Hariyama, hopefully to face Hawlucha too. Crustle Who cares, I'm mostly using this thing as a meatbag to switch in to heal my other mons. Armoatisse - Aroma Veil - Moonblast - Draining Kiss - Calm Mind - Aromatherapy Either an attacker or more fodder. Swanna - Hydration - Water Pulse - Air Slash - Brave Bird - Roost My main damage dealer, considering using hurricane and rain dance for this. Infernape - Iron Fist - Acrobatics - Close Combat - Flame Wheel Fuck the fact that Infernape has such a shitty level up movepool and I don't explore enough. Alakazam - Magic Gaurd - Recover - Psychic - Teleport - Miracle Eye Trying to train this one up to level 60 for another damage dealer. Edited April 9, 2015 by WaterMystic Quote
Fuchsia Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Switch crustle for a pokemon that you will actually use Quote
WaterMystic Posted April 9, 2015 Author Posted April 9, 2015 Switch crustle for a pokemon that you will actually use But my pokemon can barely take Samson's touching them. Quote
Fuchsia Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 If you are really struggling that much capture pokemon that can counter fighting and integrate them into your team. Quote
WaterMystic Posted April 9, 2015 Author Posted April 9, 2015 If you are really struggling that much capture pokemon that can counter fighting and integrate them into your team. Yeah, tempted to grab a Braviary and swap it out for my Swanna, He's been slacking so much lately........ Quote
LeMasterJP Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 I caught a hawlucha on route 2 and let me tell you, it lives up to his name as a pro wrestler. Flying press = OP Quote

Helia Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Use Aromatisse more. Fairy beats Fighting. Draining Kiss the fck out of him! Also when it comes to resisting fighting Swanna > Braviary. Swanna resists it while Brav takes normal. However don't take it from me since I haven't used either. Quote

Xiri Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Altaria is actually pretty useful for this gym. Mine soloed Samson. If you can manage to get 2 Cotton Guards up, Samson won't be able to touch you. Quote

WaterMystic Posted April 9, 2015 Author Posted April 9, 2015 http://www.pokemonreborn.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=7866 lmfao, that explains it. I'm always on past 12pm. Quote

TheBroShow Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 On route 2 you can also catch a rufflet and train it to become braviary, which I hear does well against Samson. Quote
Cyclonegale Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Hawlucha is really good against Samson. Especially with how it can use the field to it's advantage. Quote
WaterMystic Posted April 10, 2015 Author Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the help everyone, I caught a Braviary and it's doing miracles. Fucked Samson up, thanks everyone. Edited April 10, 2015 by WaterMystic Quote
