Aipom

Aipom and team

OK...I'm raising an Aipom for reasons that have to do with the anime. I know it is not a good battler but I need a good nature, item, and EV's so I can raise it to be good. So far, I have this:

Aipom@???
-Focus Punch
-Fire Punch
-Substitute
-??? (ok, so I need one more move).

Here are my other pokemon if you want to have a look:

Pikachu@Light Ball
-Thunderbolt
-Iron Tail
-Volt Tackle
-Thunder

Sceptile@Scope Lens
-Solarbeam
-Leaf Blade
-Dragonbreath
-Body Slam

Donphan@Leftovers
-Earthquake
-Ancientpower
-Rock Slide
-Hyper Beam

Swellow@Choice Band
-Aerial Ace
-Fly
-Steel Wing
-Quick Attack

Crawdaunt@Shell Bell
-Crabhammer
-Surf
-Crunch
-Brick Break

That's it thanks for anyone who rates/helps with my team and Aipom.

^ Thanks...now I just need to know what EV's should I focus on...If it is going to learn Thunderbolt, I'd like its Special Attack to be good, then its attack has to be good...
 
No. Do NOT use thunderbolt or any form of Special Attack on an adamant pokemon (usually). Adamant LOWERS aipoms already bad Special Attack. Also, Never use thunder wave on a choice banded pokemon. It can never do damage if you use it (unless you switch).
 
Mainly SpA and Attack,its probably the best you can get with Aipom.You could use shadow ball over thunderbolt if you want.

do not use this you should go with a sub punch version.
 
try aerial ace in order to help get rid of fighting types...just a sugg
 
OK, for Aipom the two moves that must stay there shoud be Sub-Punch combo. Though it has bad special attack, I'd like it to know at least one, for example: Aipom is against an Ice type, if it knows Fire Punch...then Aipom has a chance of winning, something like that. Anyway, I won't put Choice Band on Aipom if it has Sub-Punch. Leftovers is a good choice, especially because of the hp lost with substitute. So does anyone know, what special attack would suit Aipom?

Stabbed Return does more damage than Super Effective Aerial Ace other than heracross and breloom, but by then you should switch.

Putting special attacks on Aipom in stupid. You play to its strengths (Attack) not its weaknesses (Special Attack) It you come across something that is super effective to Aipom SWITCH! Aipom can't take a hit regardless of what its facing. Giving it an adament nature isn't going to help Aipoms's already poor SpAtk. This is the best you can do with Aipom, don't be an idiot use it.

Aipom @Choice Band
Adament Nature
-Substitute
-Focus Punch

Rofl an choice band with sub-punch will never work believe me never!!!
and what means this:Giving it an adament nature isn't going to help Aipoms's already poor SpAtk
your sugest adamant yourself to
 
So..I guess Aipom will learn Shadow Ball against Ghost pokemon, should I get Return or Body Slam...I think Aipom knows Body Slam but I don't know if it could be a possible move.
 
^ Thanks, I'll keep that in mind...How 'bout my other pokemon on my team? Are they okay too?

Aipom@Leftovers
-Substitute
-Focus Punch
-Return
-Shadow Ball

Is that a good moveset? The Nature is Adament I think but what about EV's? Attack or raise the Defenses??
 
Max Attack and Speed and Adamant Nature.

It will die to anything and you need the power. Plus, it is fast enough (slower than a lot of pokemon though) and you need the power. Tickle is also a fun option that sorta works as a attack and defense upper, but it is the opponent's whose stats are being lowered.

Okay I don't think you getting what I said. He said hes going to keep the Sub-Punch combo so of course he's going to make it adament. Adament give you +Atk -SpAtk so it doesn't help his already poor SpAtk.
