Ari0n Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 (edited) So, I'm stuck at Shelly's gym. Her Yanmega just swipes my team, so I would appreciate some help with either new pokemon or a tactic. My team is: Frogadier (lvl 34) - [Ability: Protean / Item: Sea Incense / Nature: Naughty] Moveset: Water Pledge / Lick / Smack Down / Quick Attack Bibarel (lvl 33) - [Ability: Unaware / Item: none / Nature: Lax] Moveset: Headbutt / Cut / Rock Smash / Yawn Noibat (lvl 32) - [Ability: Infiltrator / Item: none / Nature: Rash] Moveset: Screech / Air Cutter / Roost / Razor Wind Roselia (lvl 35) - [Ability: Poison Point / Item: Rose Incense / Nature: Calm] Moveset: Giga Drain / Growth / Leech Seed / Magical Leaf Pangoro (lvl 33) - [Ability: Iron Fist / Item: none / Nature: Bashful] Moveset: Body Slam / Vital Throw / Work Up / Karate Chop Note: I'm using Bibarel as TM slave and my objective was to get an Aggron and a Chandelure to complete my team. I'm starting with Frogadier / Bibarel and using Smack Down on Masquerain (leaving him with low HP to make her waste her Ultra Portions) and Yawn on Illumise. Then after I use yawn I switch to Pangoro and try from there. Any help is appreciated, thanks. Edited February 4, 2017 by Ari0n Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DELETETHISACCOUNT Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 She uses 2 Ultra Potion,I used my Growlithe with Flamethrower and Ursaring with Slash and keep focusing on 1 poké at a time.I switched my Growlithe when Anorith came in.If possible,use a fire type and a powerhouse,it worked for me at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alextron Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 You should use a Fire-type Pokemon ('cause she use uses bug-types duh). Also a Rock-type Pokemon such as Graveler can be very useful (resists bug STABs,but don't bring it out while Masquerain is still alive). Noibat isn't very useful until it evolves at around level 48-ish so get a better Flying-type for now (Unfezant, Pidgeot etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfox Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 perhaps catching a Geodude in the cave bellow the grand staircase will help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I caught a geodude with stealth rock and setting up stealth rock was very easy it took down most of her Pokemon's health down easily. (Yanmega especially). Also if you want I can give you a Charmander with flare blitz and some other egg moves. (hopefully, it will help). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maltor Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I speak from experience here (since i'm doing a dark mono run right now) when i say Pangoro just won't work in this gym. He pretty much gets outsped by everything, and Struggle Bug just wrecks him. As some already suggested, getting a Geodude from below the staircase, or even a Slugma from the trade arcade (since you'll probably need one for breeding, due to Magma Armor) will do wonders for you.

seki108 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Instead of Noinbat, I would suggest almost any other Flying type (even Fearow). It just can't take a hit. Regaurding Yanmega, in my case, I had my Frogier and Zebrastrika (2 special attacker) doulbe attack it, and take it out before it attacked (otherwise it caused too much damage) Since Rosalia knows Giga Drain, it should be able to one shot Anorith. 49 minutes ago, Maltor said: even a Slugma from the trade arcade I would definitely say Geodude. From my experience at least, Slugma was too slow to get off an attack 80-90% of the time. Fire attacks are useless in this gym (unless you can outlast Rain Dance) and Slugma's rock throw didn't really do much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC Slugma can learn Flame Burst not needing to go over the level cap at Shelly's gym, and the terrain there is Grassy terrain (is it?), so you can pair up Slugma with a Fake Out pokemon (Technician Persian comes to mind), stop Illumise from using Rain Dance, and just remove that grass from play. But yeah, Slugma is super slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have been so much easier. Well, if I do another run, I'm doing this. Thank you. Edited January 31, 2017 by seki108 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ari0n Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 Thanks for all the help, I managed to defeat her using a graveler <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
