[deoxys_attack_mode]

*runs to a corner and vomits* those movesets are REALLY bad.

Venusaur:Frenzy Plant(If you must. If not, use Razor Leaf.), Sludge Bomb, Body Slam, HP Electric

[Obiwan Shinobi]

hypr beam sucks, as does ohko.

Articuno: Heal Bell / Rest / Sleep Talk / Ice beam
Venusaur; Sludge Bomb / Sleep Power / Leech Seed/ Synthesis
Sceptile: Leech Seed / Sub / Leaf Blade / Thunderpunch
Latias: Calm Mind / Dragon Claw / Safegaurd / Recover
Moltres: Sunny Day, Flamethorwer / Hidden Power [Grass] / Toxic
Pidgeot: Aerial Ace / Return / Steel Wing / Quick Attack

 

[S:C]

DON'T USE SMILIES TO REPRESENT POKEMON. IT ATTACKS OUR SANITY.

I had to get that out.

Sceptile: Solarbeam, Giga Drain, Double-Edge, False Swipe

Wow does that set suck.

Leaf Blade
Thunderpunch
HP Ice
Brick Break

Normally the last slot would be Focus Punch, but prediction doesn't work well in BF.

Venusaur: Frenzy Plant, Solarbeam, Giga Drain, Bullet Seed

You need a revamp.

Razor Leaf
Leech Seed
HP Fire
Sleep Powder

It will work well against Lucy.

Rayquaza: Fly, Extremespeed, Dragon Claw, Hyper Beam

That just scared me.

Dragon Dance
HP Flying
Earthquake
Rock Slide

It's a nice copy of DDmence.

Pidgeot: Fly, Wing Attack, Featherdance, Quick Attack

You lack a set here. That's why we RMTers are here to help.

HP Flying
Return
Steel Wing
Quick Attack

QA will actually come in handy in a handful of situations.

Articuno: Blizzard, Agility, Ice Beam, Mind Reader

Meh, Articuno has no real set anyways.

Moltres: Overheat, Endure, Agility, Flamethrower

What's with both Overheat and Flamethrower on the same set?

Sunny Day
Flamethrower
HP Electric
Agility

Moltres is a good Sunny Dayer.

Latias: Thunder, Mist Ball, Psychic, Refresh

"We need the cleanup crew in Aisle 9..."

Safeguard
Calm Mind
Dragon Claw
Thunderbolt

It's not that hard.

And yet, I only ever battle Pike Queen Lucy (but I'm 7 wins away from battling Factory Head Noland...)

Comments are in bold.

 

[Samayowa]

There are too many flying types in there...you should have a more balanced type range on your team....my seggestion is get some Electric types...Water(or ice)...Fire... I know you have those but without the flying type in them....

Diamond and Pearl

You didn't list natures or held items... Starmie > your team.

Just suggestions, but PLEASE lay off of the Hyper Beam-like attacks.

LOL. Hypocrite.

 

[Ridley-X4]

Y HALO THAR BOLTBEAM!!!

Really, any poke with a Boltbeam of any sort kills this team. My Alakazam > This team.

Adjustments

Well I got Sceptile and Venusaur up to Level 100 but did not change their movesets. Oh well they kick ***** anyway. Articuno accidently grew (is that possible?) to Lvl. 51, eliminating it from my team. (BTW I don't want to wait 4 Sheer Cold and its probability is too low for the BF anyway) Moltres is alright and the reason it has both Overheat and Flamethrower is 2-fold:

1. Moltres has [SPOIL]Fire Spin[/SPOIL] when you catch it. [SPOIL]What a pathetic move![/SPOIL] I saved Overheat to replace that so I have 2 powerful attacks from Moltres! A 1-2 punch if you ask me!

2. When you NEED the extra power for 1 shot that HAS TO COUNT, Overheat does the trick (i.e. a Milotic with just a few more HPs than Flamethrower can take off– I found that out the hard way >_<)

Thanks for the advice, but the Elemental Hyper Beams are unique to the 3rd gen. games and I wanted to see them in action!

On the bright side, you may have noticed that I actually did manage to defeat Lucy. After losing Articuno I trained my Swampert up to Lvl. 50 and, with only 89 EXP. left before Lvl. 51, I took it to the Battle Frontier. Before you go critiquing its moves, note that Muddy Water took care of Shuckle, and a critical Earthquake move knocked out Milotic, giving me the victory!!!! (Seviper is a pushover)

;260; Swampert: Muddy Water, Earthquake (TM), Dive, Mud Shot

Yeah, Mud Shot's whimpy, but I'm waiting for a better move. Any suggestions? (Peferably a Ground-type move to match)

I lost a chance at Noland with only 2 wins to go but I am currently on the brink of a 3rd run-through at the Pyramid and a shot a Pyramid King Brandon with the same team (Swampert, Moltres, and Latias). Wish me luck!

2. When you NEED the extra power for 1 shot that HAS TO COUNT, Overheat does the trick (i.e. a Milotic with just a few more HPs than Flamethrower can take off– I found that out the hard way >_<)

What if you need it for more than 1 shot? Or are short on options because you wasted 2 move slots on 2 same-type moves? Your logic fails.

Thanks for the advice, but the Elemental Hyper Beams are unique to the 3rd gen. games and I wanted to see them in action!

Oh! That's okay then! Use them once, gasp in awe, then replace them. :/

and a critical Earthquake move knocked out Milotic, giving me the victory!!!!

HAX! HAX!

Yeah, Mud Shot's whimpy, but I'm waiting for a better move. Any suggestions? (Peferably a Ground-type move to match)

Ice beam. Surf over dive, curse over muddy water.

 

[Diljabar]

Swampert originally had Surf and Muddy Water. Both have the same power and only differ in accuracy. Besides, I have 4 Pokémon with Surf already. 5 is just overkill and only Swampert learns Muddy Water.

Moltres starts with [SPOIL]Flamethrower[/SPOIL]. It was already there– I just left it!

I have never seen Razor Leaf knock out Mewtwo in 1 hit like Frenzy Plant. Nyah.

Ice beam. To replace Mud Shot? When did Ice Beam ever knock out a Lvl. 50 Seviper in 1 shot?
Curse over muddy water. WTF? I am an attack person! I can't leave myself open for 1 round! Besides, my Swampert has pathetic speed thanks to its nature– I can't risk it!

Surf>Muddy water. We came to rate your team, not to give your pokes cool-looking attacks.

Moltres starts with Flamethrower. It was already there– I just left it!

Get rid of overheat then. 2 same type attacks is "just overkill", as you would say.

I have never seen Razor Leaf knock out Mewtwo in 1 hit like Frenzy Plant. Nyah.

Says the person who's fool enough to face a poison type off against a mewtwo. :/

Ice beam. To replace Mud Shot? When did Ice Beam ever knock out a Lvl. 50 Seviper in 1 shot?

You have earthquake.

Curse over muddy water. WTF? I am an attack person! I can't leave myself open for 1 round! Besides, my Swampert has pathetic speed thanks to its nature– I can't risk it!

You have surf, no need for muddy water. If it's speed is bad, all the better- let it keep falling lower. Stop complaining!

 

[Unknown Shadower]

......Pokèmon is not for cool looks, when you battle it's for damage, hyper beam type attacks leave yourself open for one turn.Yer, you take looks over damage n some cases, thats a VERY bad thing in Pokèmon.

Hyper beam type attacks suck unless you use them wisely.

 

[chaos952]

Hyper Beam-like attacks suck. Period.

Diljabar, an all-out attack strategy does not work. You should download and play Netbattle to find out why that doesn't work. You'll eventually find out... the hard way.
