New BF team...heh

Silver Dragonair

OMG internetz
All of them are level 62:

Houndoom:
Ability: Flash Fire
Modest Nature

Flamethrower
Crunch
Solarbeam
Torment

I dont like sunny beaming houndoom any more...It can give my opponents advantages. LIke if anyone else is packing solar beam. Some clorophylling Glooms, Shiftrys or anything of the like.

Swampert:
Ability: Torrent
Brave Nature (swamperts speed isnt good anyway)

Earthquake
Surf
Ice Beam
Rest

Espeon
Synchronize
Modest NAture

Psychic
Crunch (the story here is, I wasnt the OT of this evee, I traded it from someone. It had crunch. I kept it. Thought it was awesome)
Baton Pass
Calm Mind

Heracross:
Ability:Guts
Adamant Nature

Substitute
Megahorn
Brick Break
Focus Punch

I dont like endure/reversal heracross. It takes prediction. The sleep talk/rest wasnt of my tatse. I am an unlucky guy. 9/10 it chose rest.... However, I love my sub punching Heracross

Swellow
Ability:Same as heracross
Nature:Same as heracross

Facade
Steel Wing
Aerial Ace
Endeavor

Sceptile:
Ability:Overgrow
Nature:

Focus Punch
Substitute
Leech Seed
Leaf Blade

I have two emeralds. One ruby and two sapphires games. I can really cut through the game. To get more and more TM's give them to my pokemon to hold and trade them over. Its not that hard. Emerald and R/s arent even that long. Im just lazy

battle frontier teams have to have 3 pokemon, not 6. which three will you be using? also, crunching Espeon is (WTF)^2.

Sorry, but sunny day really should be used if you're using solarbeam... The charging turn is just asking for the opponent to switch to something that resists it. Chlorophyll pokes with solarbeam aren't a problem, as Houndoom resists solarbeam and can kill grasses with flamethrower.

You have to breed to get curse, BTW.

It knew crunch? That's an illegal move, so the person you got it from obviously cheated to teach it crunch.

Heracross:@Leftovers
Ability:Guts
Adamant Nature

Substitute
Megahorn
Rockslide/Earthquake
Focus Punch
You don't really need brick break since you've got focous punch. I'd chose rock slide over EQ, as it covers its 4x weakness to flying.

or if you can part with sub-punch:

Heracross @Leftovers
Adamant nature
~Swords dance
~Megahorn
~Rockslide
~Brick break

Swellow @Choice band
Ability:Guts
Nature:Adamant/Jolly

Return
Steel Wing
Aerial Ace
Hp fighting/ground/quick attack

Sceptile:
Ability:Overgrow
Nature:Modest/timid nature

Dragon claw
Crunch
Thunderpunch/Ice punch
Leaf Blade

Suggestions in Bold.
If this is your battle frontier team, why do you have 6 pokes instead of 3? Or do you rotate on which ones you use?
 

Silver Dragonair

OMG internetz
I rotate

I dont like my Swellows without facade..This is in game. So getting a decent hidden power. Is a pain in the arse. Facade swellow with a status condition is 315. If I could predict better, it would be awesome choice banded.

Despite my friend cheating, wich he obviously did. My crunching Espeon actually saved by butt a few times. Dragon Claw is okay for kingdras. I have to breed to get crunch. Wich im not doing. Im with level 62 pokemon. I already breeded for leech seed.

Ill go with:
Dragon Claw
Thunder/Ice Punch
Leech Seed
Leaf Blade

The rockslide Heracross is good. I just need more BP. Im not going to waste my EQ TM yet.

Facade Swellow can work, but sometimes Return is better.

Yeah but with return. Your power is 102. Status condition. 153 and STAB 229.5..

Facade power is 70 with STAB 105. Status condition 140, STAB 210. Plus guts is 315.

If your prediction skills are effing awesome then slap a choice band on it. For 472.5 base power...

Basically Facade>Return

But you MUST have a stas condition. Return does decent damage always.........

Oh so when your stumped with a status condition. You're going to wish, you had a faceade. Besides your pokemon need to be happy for return to work properly.

Thats not a risk im willing to take. I dont know my happiness levels. They probably arent even good.

If you actually train with your Pokemon they will be fully happy about level 30

O RLY????

I had Swellow since it was a level 4 tailow. Now tell me the location of the return TM

Custom User Title
In the lower left house on Pacifladog, a man will give you a Return TM if the first Pokemon in your party likes you. Just use a random Pokemon that you have been training with for a while.

Note: You can get only one Return TM a week.
