[snorlax]

one dragon=/=dragon based team

rest-talk Milotic seeing as how it will probably taking all the hits

 

[chubb-o-wub]

Altaria@??
Modest
-Fire Blast/Flamethrower
-Dragon Claw
-Safeguard
-Heal Bell(from XD)

Here's a cleric for your team.

 

[Shichiro]

Dragonite can be a Heal Beller too if you like, though IIRC it too needs XD mods to get it.

 

[Souless_Heat]

If I want a cleric I guess I will use a Miltank, what else?

 

[Frost Nova]

Sceptile likes Leech Seed
Sceptile@lefties (Subseeder)
Timid Nature
- Leaf Blade
- Sub
- Leech Seed
- T-Punch

Much better than the special sweeping moveset.

Milo can act as your status absorber:
Milotic@lefties (ReSTalker)
Bold Nature
- Surf
- Ice Beam
- Rest
- Sleep Talk

Pure pwnage. Nuff said.

[Souless_Heat]

Heh Special Sweeper is more fun to use for me. Even though your right when you say that the set you put up is better, I just hate it.

Oh yes!

In regards to my first set, I think I will make the next two Altaria(without XD mods) and Latios

 

[Neo]

Btw, does Marvel Scale still work if you're asleep? Cos otherwise it'll be able to take more hits with a status effect and Recover than using Rest.

 

[Souless_Heat]

Yes Marvel Scale will activate when you use Rest.

Also I am re-thinking about using Latios

 

[chubb-o-wub]

Tee-hee............ Starmie owns this team. Just to be safe though...

Crunch over Toxic on Sceptile
&
Latios@Lum/Petaya
Modest
-T-bolt
-Ice Beam
-Dragon Claw/Psychic/Recover
-Dragon Claw/Psychic/Recover

For Latios, it depends on what you want. Either a pogey that doesnt die off and owns, or one that owns more, but dieing off earlier.

 

[Souless_Heat]

Hmm... Latios is the only other Dragon I would use in Emerald-But I don't want to use any legendary pokemon

Actually Sceptile would do more to Starmie with a Leafblade. Luckily Starmie won't OHKO Sceptile and Latios and since Starmie really won't survive a Leafblade and Sceptile is faster it could OHKO it. Yet your right, Starmie is the total counter of a Dragon team.

 

[WhiteWizard42]

any boltbeamer is, 'cause almost everything in most dragon teams is dragon, flying, or water at least, sometimes a combination of those.

could use kingdra if you're concerned with starmie. good defensive stats, and not weak to bolt or beam, and 4x resists water.

 

[Pottsie]

I wouldn't call ;336; Seviper a Dragon Pokèmon. I would have a ;006; Charizard to replace ;336; Seviper and a ;130; Gyarados.

 

[ZNtelle]

could use kingdra if you're concerned with starmie. good defensive stats, and not weak to bolt or beam, and 4x resists water.

In which case you'd have to go with DDFlailing Kingdra. Dragonbreath isn't the best way to defend against Starmie.

Kingdra @ Liechi Berry
Lonely Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) / Mild Nature (+SAtk, -Def)
- Dragon Dance
- Endure / Substitute
- Flail
- Hydro Pump

I don't encourage cutting SDef because this is the way, apparently, to deal with Starmie. You get the idea here; DD up, End/Sub when needed, and Flail on out of a battle. I like Endure more on this set because it makes Flail somewhat more effective. Sub will require some luck, but will work to activate Liechi after 3 subs - if and only if your HP is divisible by 4. If it isn't, don't even bother with Sub. Hydro Pump is for those Steel- and Rock-type physical walls.

 

[WhiteWizard42]

if your HP isn't divisible by 4, then 4 subs will leave you with 1-3 HP, and have flail be at max power (and activate liechi if you're using it). i'd probably use lefties with sub, though, since you have DD to boost attack.

 

[Souless_Heat]

I wouldn't call ;336; Seviper a Dragon Pokèmon. I would have a ;006; Charizard to replace ;336; Seviper and a ;130; Gyarados.

Seviper is in the Dragon egg group, and I can't get EQ TMs out of thin air for Gyarados, and I prefer to leave my Charizard on my LG team.

Ok well I have decided to use a Lanturn. It should work wonders against a Starmie

 

[Zora]

And do not use Charizard.

Seviper is in the dragon group. I can tell she wants it to be a dragon type, or in the dragon egg-group.

Laturn will be good.


You may want Gyarados due to lack of physical sweepers, but only if you can get HP flying.

 

[daksunt]

i think go with flygon item leftovers
dragonbreath-dragon claw
earthquake
flamethrower-fireblast
hidden power elec(if its possible)

 

[Souless_Heat]

No way is hell for Flygon...

Well Seviper is a mixed sweeper and Salamence can bring down so much it isn't funny, I will try to get DD-mence, but getting DD is tough...

 

[*Jean Grey*]

what about a Dragonite instead of Salamence,it has more chances of taking an Ice Beam than a Salamence does
