I was wondering, what would be the viability of a LC Trick Room team?

Charmander · Jul 8th, 2011, 3:03:57 PM

Little Cup Trick Room is pretty bad for a few reasons. The defensive cores in LC (PokeSeed and such) are pretty strong, so switching easily stalls it out. Secondly, there is too much priority. Trick Room is normally supposed to ensure you go first, but it doesn't against priority. Lastly, stuff in LC such as Acrobatics Gligar is fast and strong. Normally, Trick Room is only used in other tiers because many strong Pokemon aren't fast enough to succeed, but in LC, it's not the case.

tl;dr there's no point just be faster

i've tried it, and cubone is really the only sweeper worth using. as charmander said, the best sweepers in little cup are fast too.

even deepseatooth clamperl has shell smash

So, I didn't see this on the rules, and this might be common-sense but I'm new to LC, but is the Pomeg glitch in Emerald.. frowned upon?

Not at all, we allowed it so many of the 3rd gen and before genderless Pokemon could use some of their much needed level up moves.

kidfresh · Jul 27th, 2011, 11:23:25 AM

Alrighty, thanks!

**blarajan** · Aug 1st, 2011, 11:29:30 AM

Excuse me for noob but what IS the pomeg glitch?

***Vader**** · Aug 1st, 2011, 11:42:54 AM

In the Third Generation of Pokemon, it was possible to set all of your Pokemon's HP negative or something with the Pomeg berry, but end of the day what matters is you are able to battle with eggs and level up the Pokmon inside them, which lets them learn new moves and accrue EVs. However, once hatched, they revert to Level 5. Long story short, genderless Pokemon can use their level-up moves from gen 3.

**blarajan** · Aug 1st, 2011, 1:09:23 PM

Oh alright. Wow that's pretty fucked up haha. Um. How does Bronzor use its level up moves this gen, then?

**Elevator Music** · Aug 1st, 2011, 1:17:47 PM

It doesn't.... at least afaik. Only 3rd Gen Pokemon can use the Pomeg Glitch, so 4th and 5th gen genderless Pokemon can't use their level-up movepools (at least for now, you never know what glitches the future games will have 9.9)

**blarajan** · Aug 1st, 2011, 1:21:49 PM

Oh alright. Just wondering, thanks.

Percussionist · Aug 1st, 2011, 5:11:33 PM

I'm interested in starting Little Cup, but have no idea where to start. A push in the right direction would be appreciated.

Assuming a Pokémon with Flail or Reversal has 20 or less max HP, if it had 1 HP, would Flail/Reversal have 200 or 150 base power? On Serebii, it says that it has 200BP at 1 HP-4% and 150BP from 5%-10%. Just wondering because having 1/20 HP falls under the category of 1 HP and 5%.

Diana · Aug 2nd, 2011, 10:21:48 AM

It would be 150BP because of its percentage.

Princess of Johto · Aug 3rd, 2011, 6:02:40 PM

Ok, this is probably going to be a nooby question but, how do pokemon with genders get their level up moves (That can only be gained after level 5) at Lv. 5 in-game? Is it similar to egg moves? I hope this question makes sense.

Lol, like the rules say any pokemon that has a gender can have any level up move (Even ones over 5) so I'm asking how.
