What Medicham strategy would you say is more reliable/better?

1) Passing a Speed Boost(s) and hopefully a Swords Dance via Ninjask to this Medicham

move 1: Hi Jump Kick / Brick Break
move 2: Psycho Cut
move 3: Ice Punch
move 4: Thunderpunch
item: Focus Sash
nature: Jolly
evs: 252atk/4def/252spd

(Or Ninjask ->Umbreon->Medicham for passing after the attack and maybe a Wish/Mean Look as well.)




2) Using this set right off the bat:

name: Reversaler
move 1: Endure / Substitute
move 2: Reversal
move 3: Psycho Cut
move 4: Ice Punch / Thunderpunch
item: Salac Berry
nature: Jolly
evs: 252atk/4def/252spd


I have to worry about Sandstorm either way, unless I use Umbreon in the chain. I also don't have to worry about dying via a priority move if I do that. But it takes longer to set-up. So which would you say is the best one to use?


Sorry, it's not that simple of a question. >_>
 
Are the running Pokémon (Mesprit and Cresselia) natures and IVs set when you first see them (their sprite, and then they run off) or when you first meet them in the wild?
 
My friend has a set close to yours, he uses Ninjask to Sub and try to pass that with speed boosts to a Smeargle, who then belly drum's and baton passes to Medicham. (This can OHKO anything in the game, including a Cresselia with reflect up.)
 
If a pokemon has 31 IVs in 2 or more stats, will the description be for one of the 31 stats?

Example:
Pokemon X
x/x/x/31/x/31

Will it say either Alert to Sounds or Micheavious? or will it choose a random stat?

It will say a random one.
 
Okay, not a Pokemon related question, but somewhat related.

Where can I get character move profiles for Super Smash Bros. Melee (like how to use the moves, I can't figure out Shiek's chain attack)?

Yes, this isn't a simple question, and without knowing the rest of your team, I can't really say which is better. In general, it depends on what you're more afraid of. Tyranitar and its ilk kill the Reversaler, while Skarmory and other phazers stop Ninjask from getting off a pass (You won't necessarily activate your Focus Sash on Medicham, so it's not instantly doomed). A better way to test this would be to post in the RMT forum with a full team that includes this strategy and ask for advice.
 
Lucario is a great Reversaler because it's immune to Sandstorm, gets STAB Reversal, and learns Swords Dance. It can also hit Ghosts super effective.

Edit: Thanks for all the help. I think I will use Lucario as my Reversaler instead of Medicham then.

You throw it out with -> + B, (I think you should hold B aswell) and then you can steer it with the control stick.

Possibly one of the worst attacks in the game, so don't bother :P

Just wanted to know, thanks. It gets in the way after I throw needles, so I was thinking of ways to use it effectively.

Any place to learn how to get better? I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to SSBM.
 
If you bother wasting an hour or so, check gamefaqs forums (Yes wall of text).

if you bother wasting a week, master Wave-dashing. (described on the Gamefaqs forums)



Still didn't get a straight answer, is the girls key in the hotel lobby? (If no one answers I'll have to... to check for myself :O )

It's right outside the lobby, like two steps away from the North entrance.
 
That explains why I didn't find it, thanks.

Lava Cookie. Well, I hope that she at least gives away one per day :(
 
is it possible to remove EVs from a pokemon that has MAX EVs, using those berries that remove EVs, pomeg, kelpsy, etc.?
