[flamec80]

On Gardevoir, Shadow Ball > Hypnosis.

 

[rocky505]

gardevoir isn't a physical poke he's special so NO.

 

[TogeticTheRuler]

I know one thing,replace fireblast with flamethrower,more accurate+if fireblast misses on the 2nd turn,flamethrower will do more dmg ^-^
What about the items?they wanne items!

 

[rocky505]

dude it's a future team

 

[Swellow_91]

Blaziken @ Leftovers / White Herb
Adamant / Jolly nature
- Bulk Up
- Sky Uppercut
- Overheat
- Aerial Ace

EDIT

aerial ace is most likely going on xatu.

You could always try Facade / Return. I would go with Earthquake but I see you teach it to Aggron.

 

[rocky505]

aerial ace is most likely going on xatu.

Rock Slide/Earthquake/Aerial Ace/Slash?

You probably can't get Rock Slide from sapphire, maybe just through breeding. Earthquake is nice, but it kind of covers the same stuff as Sky Uppercut, so neah. Slash/Return/other damaging move is sadly your best option. Also, no flamethrower, you need more power because of adamant. SD would be great.

xatu
timid/Jolly
drill peck/aerial ace
psychic
wish
confuse ray/Light Screen/Reflect

hmm...don't waste Aerial Ace on him. Drill Peck is better. But give him Light Screen or Reflect as a last move. Or just lose Psychic and give him both. You already have Gardevoir. If you really want a good bird, get Dodrio or Swellow. Much better choices. And you don't really need a Wishpasser or ppasser.

aggron
adamant
earthquake
double edge
brick break
iron tail

He begs for Rock Slide. A nice set, but IMO, lose Aggron. I though he was great too, until I saw him in person. Get Rhydon. Much better, with Rock Blast/Earthquake/Brick Break/Double Edge something. 4x weak to Ground and Fighting is just murder.

gardevoir
timid
psychic
thunderbolt
calm mind
hypnosis

K. No Shadow Ball for Christ sake. Just kill all the ghosts with either something else or Psychic. And when Dusclops comes in, switch.

i can't use tutors cause i can't trade.

The other two guys might be Regice (nice boltbeaming special sponge), Salamence (a monster, physical, special, or mixed), Weezing (great tank, and poison type with levitate pwns), Ludicolo (Grass/Water, covers both types, and it's great) and other. Get some special sweepers or tanks/sponges.

 

[rocky505]

i can't move tutor and what i meant was bulk up is replacing swords dance.and i can't breed blaziken it's a male and there are no ditto's in sapphire.

 

[Lathspell]

I do believe someone said there was a place where you could find Dittos, can't remember where. Anyway, ignore that. Put AA on Blaziken then, and keep Bulk up, but my advice, try to switch the game for Emerald or just restart until you get a Female Blaziken. Or even better, restart and get Swampert . Blaziken, although my favourite, is the worst starter of the three.

 

[rocky505]

yeah on emerald not sapphire and im not starting a new game not switching with emerald either.

 

[Freakshow]

You can't get Ditto in sapphire . Dittos are only available in FR/LG/E

 

[rocky505]

i still need two more pokes and i don't like any of the ones mentioned earlier.

 

[Lathspell]

Right, it was emerald. On Sapphire, really, those are kind of the only pokes worth mentioning, and of course, Metagross. I gave you good suggestions, if you don't like any of them, just say what do you want from the last two pokemon? Most pokemon on third generation are crap. There are a few that shine, like Sala and Metagross, Regice and Swampert, but most others only look good. You really need a tank and a sponge. Gardevoir can be a sponge, but a tank is a must, and the only two good ones are Weezing and Skarmory. Just say what do you want, and we'll rate your movesets.

 

[rocky505]

i guess i'll get a how about a cradily.

 

[dude]

for xatu u should choose areal ace

 

[rocky505]

hey dude im ignoring you dude hey dude guess what dude im not teaching xatu aerial ace.

 

[Lathspell]

Cradily...hmm..The debate for what's a good moveset for him was long and painful. It eventually lead to this result:
Cradily @ Leftovers
Impish Nature
- Toxic/Mirror Coat
- Rock Slide
- Recover
- Earthquake/Iron Defense

You could have said in the first place that you wanted Cradily. Still, in Sapphire, without trading and the Emerald Tutors, let me see...Wait a sec, Corsola can pass both Recover and Rock Slide to Cradily. Mirror Coat too, I believe. Earthquake is a TM and Iron Defense can be gained through Aron. Or just use Amnesia instead of Iron Defense, it works good too.

You could add an Manectric to your team:

Manectric@A berry forgot wich
Timid
Crunch (breed with seviper)
Thunderbolt
Thunderwave
HP: Ice, Grass, Water/Bite/Filler

Its easy to get this manectric if you dont have the right HP use Bite/Filler

 

[rocky505]

cradily can't use iron defense.
