Hazer?

[zeppelin]

im pretty new to competitive battling so could somone tell me whats a hazer and how do i use it effectively?

 

[Volteon]

Hazer is a Pokémon which uses... Haze!
I think the only good Hazer are Weezing and Vaporeon, maybe there´re more...

There´re also the Pseudo-Hazers, which makes the same thing as haze, but with a diferent attack (Whirlwind and Roar).

 

[Akayfortyseven]

yes, and haze eliminates all stat changes (like swords dance attack boosts etc), so its useful against a sweeper like a curselax (i think ), or annoying double teamers. I prefer roar or whirlwind though because more pokes can use them and it doesnt get rid of your stat changes. however taunt renders these useless (it makes you use attacking moves only).

 

[Volteon]

Oh yes, Haze eliminates all stat changes, doesn´t matter, raised or lowered, reduced S.attack from overheat or speed from Curse will be neutralized (in case of curse, so does Attack and defense)

I didn't really know that switching out got rid of stat changes, I thought maybe they did but wasn't sure.

 

[The Organizer]

Hazor is a pokemon that learns the move HAZE, HAZE eliminates any stat changes, IE curse and stuff. Thers also roars, the use the move roar to elminate stat changes.

Erm, i think your just repeating what weve all said? anyway, a hazer can also cripple a baton pass team, and if done at the end of the chain can waste all that hard work in one move. id suggest a roarer or a whirlwinder as a lot more pokes can learn them whereas haze is really only limited to weezing and vaporeon... yeah. its a pretty good tactic if you can use it right but only if you know they are going to use stat-up moves.

oh ok thanks.

 

[Ancient Chaos]

arbok, crobat, and seviper can also learn haze

Another great way to use a Roar strategy is by using Psych Up to take their stats. This is called Leeching.. Then you Roar them away. You then take their stats and they lose them That is called Leechswitching.
