Plusle? Lethal??

[The Great Butler]

I've found Plusle+Minun to be an annoying in game combo to face, especially in Battle Mode in Colosseum, more specifically the last battle of Under Colosseum's Double mode.

The eighth opponent in said challenge ALWAYS sends out Plusle and Minun first, Rain Dances with Minun then starts a barrage of Plus+Minused Thunder attacks....not to mention that Plusle has a Magnet and her Lunatone also knows Thunder (Actually I think everything on her team knows Thunder except Solrock, it's Plusle/Minun/Volbeat/Illumise/Solrock/Lunatone)

There are STILL people that think Rock is immune to Electric? I find this hilarious.

It is? WOW! Yah learn something new everyday, i never used plusle, it is that good?

In all those cases though, the Pokemon were still Ground-types.

Watch Attack of the Prehistoric Pokemon. Wow since when is Kabutops Rock/Water/Ground? OMG Kabutops is the first ever three type Pokemon.[/sarcasam] Sorry about that, couldn't resist.

ON-TOPIC: STABed + super effective = x3 That is all for toaday's math lesson, remeber tomorrow's lesson is on attacks used against dual type Pokemon. That is how Plusle knocked out those two, but still Plusle, and for that part Miniun(sp?), aren't bad just because they are Pika clones and cute. Give them a chance first. Weak Pokemon strong Pokemon, that is just the selfish perception of the trainer. You should use the Pokemon you like, unless it is a Scramble challenge, then you curse the people who gave you Ledian. Just saying you never kno what will be good until you try it out, except Ledian it just flat out stinks.

The anime never really helped.

but didn't pika win against ground-types anyway?

AIM FOR THE HORN!

if so, it would be hella weak to grass. sceptile leaf blade: STAB, CH, 8x effective = OW.

Doesnt Relicanth and Skarmory lose they're weakness to electricity with rock and steel(and doesnt it make it "Its not very effective",at least for Rock?)

 

[HarleyScarow]

In ASB, maybe Electrics can beat Grounds, but otherwise, nah.

 

[~*Myuu the Ryuu*~]

Of course Plusles are lethal. My sig's been ravaged by them.

Seriously, I used to train a Plusle on my first Sapphire file. It was actually pretty good for a level 30ish electric.

You don't want to face Plusle and Minun at the same time though. Plus+Helping Hand+ thunderbolt=very bad situation. I'm basing this off of the Battle CD where you have Plusle and Minun.

it is quite funny. I remeber when people tought that psychic beat ghost (because of gengars poison type) and in the series they always got names wrong (e.g. growlithe was once called arcanine and poliwhirl once said poliwrath by mistake

In Johto a Machamp was reffered to as Machoke, it's pre-evolved form.

LOL. Nice karen quote there. Mines lv 16 in the PC. Never used him alreayd had Flaafy, which i traded in for raikou and now he (Raikou) and Feraliggtr are my main fighting force! Raindance, Surf and Thunder. Let the shock wars begin!

Plusle isn't abnormal. You expect a Skarmory to take a STABed super effective hit?
