Pokemon Platinum - The definitive thread: Mach 3 (Competitive Discussion)

Just my opinion. I'm a heavy Tyranitar user though so almost all my games are in Sandstorm. Leftovers and no SS might change Salamence's situation totally. I will also admit I have been taken by surprise by Roost-mence once or twice.

LO lets +Speed Mence (whose mobility is quite useful) still take out the targets it needs to take out.

edit: WHAT!? Shaymin gets Earth Power!? Holy shit! Sit down hidden power. lol
 
Bad logic. Will-o-wisp is a Fire-type attack, so obviously Fire-types will learn it. The only non-Ghost, non-Fire-types that can learn Will-o-wisp are Pokémon with ghostly qualities, or that can learn pretty much anything in the case of Mewtwo, Mew and Arceus.

Agreed.

Another Example of common misunderstanding is Sucker Punch.
It is called "Ambush" in Japan. This explains why Pokemon without hands like Ariados can get it, and why not all punching-move compatable Pokemon (Like Jynx) can get it via move tutor.
 
EARTH POWER SHAYMIN


Just have confirmed, people. Uber for sure?

Well that just shook things up. Now Seed Flare/Air Slash/Earth Power/HP Ice @Specs can rape the metagame. Uber for sure? No, nothing's for sure. Will it be debated and will people bitch and moan over whatever decision there is? Yes, for sure.
 
Machamp gets Superpower;
Mesprit and Uxie get the Elemental Punches, Knock Off, Signal Beam and Trick;
Banette gets Icy Wind;
Hitmontop and Infernape get Endeavor;
Roserade gets Seed Bomb, rofl;
Earth Power for Ho-oh;
And nothing for Gardevoir :/

And, once again, Earth Power for Shaymin...


@ Bogmire: It was confirmed the moment I read the move's name. At least Land Shaymin will be OU, yay. But who knows what will happen with Skymin?
 
Heard that Platinum pokesav is out? Ok I'm gonna test out new egg moves. I'm gonna test nasty plot gastly and ampharos first. What can breed with ampharos that can learn tail glow?

Pokesav is in Japanese. I need the English translation of spiritomb, nasty plot, ampharos, and tail glow.

Smeargle. :D

And congrats for ground Shaymin! The cute one needs some love, too. ^_^;

I need the Japanese translation of these pokemon and moves :(

The reason I need to use pokesav is that I only have one DS and I don't have those pokemon with the right moves.
 
Smeargle's Japanese name is Doburu (doodle-ish sound).

Ampharos is called Denryuu (electric dragon).

I don't know about Sketch but in Japanese drawing is Gekga or something O_O.
 
Knowing Pokémons and moves' names won't help with Platinum Pokésav, I'm afraid. You'll need to hack them in D/P Pokésav, save them as .pkm files, and then load them in Platinum Pokésav.

I've hacked them in Platinum itself, Arael, without any problems. :3
 
Wow Shaymin got ANOTHER toy....First shaymin got its new stats, then it got Serene Grace, and then Air Slash, and now it gets Earth Power....oh my...Shaymin is getting some major love.

Strange, my Pokésav have all the names in strange characters (not hiragana/katakana, not "????", but REALLY STRANGE characters).

But anyways, it's easier to hack in D/P Pokésav. At least, everything's in English :]
 
I don't know if it was confirmed or whatever, but I just tested this- Non-Movie Shaymins (flower paradise) cannot transform into Skymin.
