Could someone help me find out some information on Gengar? What kind of EVs and nature would Gengar need to OHKO Blissey with Explosion after Stealth Rock while holding a Life Orb?
quite right, once you complete the hoen pokedex, you can go to the prof and he will give you the choice of one of the three johto starters.Symbols? I thought you got the starter for completing the pokedex in Emerald.
And I wanted to see 'em so I could fish the GTS for 'em.
Anyway, thanks a bunch. ^^
Destiny Bond activates and takes your opponent's Pokemon down with yours. Since, because of Pursuit, your Pokemon is still in battle Destiny Bond doesn't wear off.What happens if one uses Destiny Bond, attempts to switch out next turn, and is KO'd by Pursuit?
Why is the recommended ev spread for physical swampert 252 HP / 6 Atk / 252 Def? Shouldn't it have more attack than that considering it's the physical set? Even mixpert has some evs in spAtt...why doesn't this have any offensive ev's?
I'm hoping to make it so that my swampy can 2HKO the average Blissey with e/q but I don't want to change any evs until I know whether the "recommended" spread is important for whatever reason.
Just some suggestions:So I am in a tournament this summer where we each got assigned a type and are expected to build a team of 6 pokemon of that type and two that arent. Seeing as my luck is god-awful, I was handed the Poison type. So my question is this;
If I was to build a Poison type team with two non-poisons (who also cant be legendary) who should I pick and why?

Psychic hurts Fighters more than Gengar's other attacks, but most of them won't enjoy boosted Shadow Balls, so it still remains a lesser option.
Life Orb numbers aren't really necessary, they're actually pretty useless and the benefits aren't so huge. Having said that, the difference between 69 and 70 power Hidden Power isn't significant either.Ok, so I'm now planning on breeding a mixed Tangrowth. The analysis recommends a 29 HP IV for LO recoil, but at the same time asks for HP Fire. Now, there is no way to get HP Fire 70 with a 29 HP IV, but you CAN get HP 69 with it. Is this one point of power worth sacrificing for the 29 HP? Or should I just go for 70 and forget about the LO number?
Also, could someone recommend the best HP Fire IV combination for this? (HP Fire mixed Naive Tangrowth)
Egg moves are never random. They are always set to override level 1 moves if the Pokemon has multiples of those (Spiritomb). Assuming the parent's moveset doesn't change from leveling up in the daycare, every single egg and baby will have the same moveset.Quick question about egg moves. I'm breeding a Staraptor with egg the egg moves Pursuit and Steel Wing. I've got the egg with the DC man, but I need to go EV train a few pokemon. My question is, are the egg moves like gender/ability/shiny and decided once it's made, or is it like IV's and is decided as you pick it up?
From the strategyDex: "40 Attack EVs and a Hasty nature (92 Attack EVs when using Timid nature) are recommended when using Explosion, allowing Gengar to OHKO standard Blissey after Stealth Rock."Could someone help me find out some information on Gengar?

The stallbreaker was obviously tl;dr: :This Gliscor set also makes for a very effective lead, with the ability to Taunt the slower users of Stealth Rock, such as Hippowdon and Metagross, while setting up its own. If you are using Gliscor in a lead position, it is recommended that you give it 88 Atk EVs to guarantee the 2HKO on max HP Metagross with Earthquake, which can be taken from Defense and then HP. Getting Stealth Rock up early on in the game is highly beneficial as well, and so it is a good choice over U-turn for leading Gliscor."What's a typical lead Gliscor set/EV spread? I can't find a specific lead set in the analysis, but the Stallbreaker set looks about right; is it?
No you're not. Staraptor can't breed for steel wing. It's TM47. There's no reason for you to even use it. At lvl 34, staraptor learns close combat, which is way way better. Maybe you meant double edge? If the father was a skarmory you're going to have to make do with take down.Quick question about egg moves.

Errr, since it's a TM and the baby can learn it normally through a TM, it's a guaranteed Egg move. I'm just answering the question, but obviously Close Combat is a whole lot better. XDNo you're not.

I have no idea about your question though, heh.
