Articuno

[Emeralda]

I'm training an Articuno. Could I improve its attacks from here?

Hidden Power (Fire)
Aerial Ace
Ice Beam
Double Team

Thanks for your time.

Articuno@leftovers
Bold??
-Ice Beam
-Roar
-Rest
-Sleep Talk

-SB ;001;

 

[magnemiteZ]

Bold or Calm.
But imo, Articuno is very shitty in-game

 

[Emeralda]

I seem to have got him completely wrong.

Nature = Jolly. ehehe.

 

[magnemiteZ]

w/ Jolly it's worse

 

[Emeralda]

OK. So should I switch my focus to something else? I want an Ice Pokémon.

 

[magnemiteZ]

yeah, you could do.

Walrein and Lapras are better Ice Types.

 

[Emeralda]

Ohf course! Lapras! I love Lapras.

I'll trade from FR and get started.

 

[magnemiteZ]

Would you like a set for Lapras?

 

[Emeralda]

Um, go on then. Although I have a pretty good idea.

 

[magnemiteZ]

Lapras@ Leftovers
Bold or Calm Nature
-Ice Beam
-Thunderbolt
-Surf
-Sing / Rest

 

[Akayfortyseven]

You could try for a physical lapras for fun purposes

impish?
Dragon Dance
Double Edge/Body Slam
Earthquake
Hydropump

 

[Lugia Catcher]

Articuno@Leftovers
Adamant Nature
Ice Beam
Hidden Power (fire is good)
Aerial Ace
Rockslide (I'm not quite sure if can learn)
It is better to get a non-uber pkmn to have great skill. Try Lapras, two types.

lapras doesn't get Earthquake btw

 

[SwordofAeons]

Hmm well if u want you can still Mind Read and Sheer Cold. But its gay and will get a lot of people mad. Lapras is better.

 

[WhiteWizard42]

lapras has the annoying hax set, too:

lapras @ leftovers
nature: bold/calm
trait: water absorb
- Sheer Cold
- Horn Drill
- Rest
- Sleep Talk

it's completely dead against anything sturdy.

lapras doesn't get Earthquake btw

Yes, your right, sorry, i was thinking of walrein.

 

[SwordofAeons]

Even with sturdy Sheer cold can hit.

 

[EmbersBackUpSinger]

Ice Beam,Sheercold,Fly,Agillty

 

[WhiteWizard42]

Even with sturdy Sheer cold can hit.

no. sturdy means that OHKO moves can't touch it. sheer cold is an OHKO move, therefore it can't hit sturdy pokes. which has got to say something about the lapras that can't kill a shuckle.
