iDunno Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Hy guys, first time poster here. Any suggestions of held items, moves or changes in roster?

Alistair Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I find your lack of Magnezone... disturbing In all seriousness though, with everything you've got you probably don't have to worry about replacing your mons or adding new ones. Your movesets look mostly good to me, other people will probably have suggestions but I'm not a particularly refined pokéstrategist so I'm leaving that up to them. You could try basic held items if you're not sure what to use, such as Charcoal, Mystic Water and the likes (at least Plates if you don't have the corresponding items). Or type berries if you wish to cover your weaknesses during the toughest battles. Welcome to Reborn btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brakk Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Actually, you could face a problem against fast hits, because you seem to have many attackers (Modest, Adamant), but do not have much bulk (dont judge me, I dont know your EV spread ). There is still a water gym and the Water Surface field effect is like Swift Swim for all Water types. I could imagine that the gym has something like a Swampert with EQ, Waterfall, Ice Punch and Rock Slide. Since it's speed is increased already, it does not need the Mega Stone for Swift Swim and can carry something like Assault Vest. That would mean death for your whole Team, except Feraligatr. Instead of using Leavanny, I would recommend a bulky Grass type like Tangrowth to help you out. (I fear that gym since I first read the field effect of Underwater Surface!!!)

Zander Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 How in the world did you get a Metagross and an electivire? Really good pokemon though, I don't see a problem here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EndearingCharacterTrait Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Elekid is a mystery egg possibility I think, and Beldum is available after a rather long sidequest. The squad looks solid though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's bulky, and the only 'mon I have with a Steel attack is Metagross. Probably gonna give him Flash Cannon, Discharge, Signal Beam and Thunder Wave/Light Screen. 17 hours ago, Brakk said: Actually, you could face a problem against fast hits, because you seem to have many attackers (Modest, Adamant), but do not have much bulk (dont judge me, I dont know your EV spread ).

My EV spread is not very good for bulky 'mons. The only bulky ones I have are Metagross and Goodra, and that's because of natural bulk. About the field effect, I know what you mean. I remember suddendly finding a Lanturn underwater and it started randomly kicking my ass because of the field effects. I'm gonna take that advice and get a Tangrowth and/or a Leafeon. Also I think I'm gonna add a Galvantula with Sticky Web to mitigate that effect. 16 hours ago, Zander said: How in the world did you get a Metagross and an electivire? Really good pokemon though, I don't see a problem here Well, as EndearingCharacterTrait said, Beldum is available in the end of a long and weird sidequest in Byxbysion. As for Electivire, you can get Elekid in a house in Calcenon by giving the guy an electirizer (it's in a cave by the Calcenon stairs), and there's a second electirizer in a lighthouse in Coral Ward. You can enter it by using dive in a hidden spot behind the lighthouse (there's a tutorial on Youtube). Thanks for the replies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also in all honesty an all out offense team is very good instead of trying for some bulk PO other than natural bulk. Train Metagross in hp and you're good to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
