Pinsir moveset

[Souless_Heat]

Pinsir@Leftovers
Nature: Adamant
HP: Bug
Rock Slide
Brick Break
Sword Dance

Back in RBY I used to always catch Sycther, and it was the same in GSC, and when it came to RSE I only used Heracross so now I think it's time I used a Pinsir on my team, at least for fun.

Please tell me if this moveset is ok. I don't have the Earthquake TM since I am using it on a Dragonite. Thank you!

 

[Tazzler]

It is fine.

Salac Bery is an option.

Power of Hidden Power [Bug]?

 

[Souless_Heat]

Yes, the move is Hidden Power Bug if that's what you were asking. Pinsir does need a STAB attack

 

[snorlax]

Eq>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>bb

no the attack power

as in

70

or 50

or 30

or 86556

you know

Numbers

 

[Souless_Heat]

Yeah except I don't have it. See? This is why I hate people who don't read what I post...

 

[snorlax]

[Souless_Heat]

Then I will probably insult your suggestions

This is the fun moveset I gave my Adamant HP Bug 60 Pinsir I got in the Game Corner in Leaf Green:

Pinsir@Choice Band
Adamant
HP Bug Greater than 50 (So it's stronger than or equal to Rock Slide and Brick Break)
Rock Slide
Earthquake
Brick Break/Focus Punch

I've seen people giving it Fury Cutter because they were so desperate to get a Bug-Type move on it ._.;

 

[Souless_Heat]

They need to give Pinsir a bug move it can use, they seriously are screwing with a great pokemon

 

[magnemiteZ]

...Yet you still haven't said the power of it's HP Bug.
And if it doesn't have HP Bug at all yet / this is a predicted set... lol

 

[Souless_Heat]

Yes, but I have a big problem.

When I was at the slot place cashing in for Pinsir, like on the 30th soft reset I got a shiny Pinsir, only it had a Hardy nature and it's HP is rock.

Please help me with a moveset for it! It's my very first shiny pokemon in FR/LG

 

[rocky505]

oooo too bad but you could try

pinsir@salac berry
adamant
subsitute
focus punch
rock slide
hp bug.

 

[Souless_Heat]

Umm.... except I want to use my Shiny Pinsir

 

[rocky505]

why it has a very bad nature for a pinsir.

 

[Souless_Heat]

No a bad nature would be a -ATK / -Speed / +SP.Atk nature. Hardy is completely nuetral all around so actually it isn't a bad nature, just not a good one.

 

[Tazzler]

Pinsir@Leftovers/Salac Berry
Hardy Nature
-Swords Dance
-Earthquake
-Brick Break
-Rock Slide

 

[Souless_Heat]

Thanks Tazzler, umm this is very bad, but I can use another move besides EQ right? Maybe Double-Edge?

 

[Tazzler]

Go ahead......
