There isn't much of a reason to use Aerial Ace, because Fire covers most of what Flying does offensively. EQ is better for battling opposing Fire types, as well as Electric, etc.

Aerial Ace again is pointless, unless you're really worried about Fighting Pokemon. Either way, Tyranitar shouldn't be sticking around when battling Fighting types. Crunch and Stone Edge get STAB.

This is fine, but Staraptor does it better...

Discharge and Thunder Wave are not needed on the same set. Go with Thunderbolt. If you do want Discharge, Charge Beam could work in the set as a way to boost Ampharos' Sp.Attack.

Staring at my phone
Just a little nitpick on Sapphire's rate:

Rock Slide > Stone Edge in-game. SE's accuracy and PP
is a bit of a letdown, plus you may benefit from the flinch
chance.

Staraptor would be much better here than Pidgeot. Bossk
is going to KILL me
He has Close Combat to hit rock
types much harder than Steel Wing, not to mention his far
superior attacking stats.

Can a Calm nature on Ampharos still work with the moveset?

I couldnt find a Modest/timid nature Mareep and kept running into Calm natured or Jolly or Adamant ones.

On Pidgeot should i keep Brave bird or have Aerial ace instead?

Either is fine. Use Brave Bird if you feel the extra power is necessary and don't mind the recoil and use Aerial Ace if recoil is a concern. The damage output from Aerial Ace compared to Brave Bird may be rather disappointing though. For Ampharos, Calm is viable since it is more Defensively inclined than other Electric Types although Modest is generally better.

I'll keep my calm Mareep since its now Flaffy. I'll have Aerial Ace over Brave bird, I wont be able to recover with Leftovers from recoil and it seems to be better.

Is adamant preferred over Jolly or is ok? For Tyranitar?

So, is Staraptor>Pidgeot? Where does Noctowl fall into all these?

So, is Staraptor>Pidgeot? Where does Noctowl fall into all these?

Please don't make random posts. Everything Normal/Flying > Noctowl as a physical sweeper.

@Dragon Trainer: Power Gem is useless on Ampharos. A STAB Thunderbolt does more damage than a supereffective power gem.

I hope this was enlightening for you.
