CB Slacking with Giga Impact
Adament 690 Att with 225 damage STAB
should be able to 1hitko alot of stuff.

since Giga Impact and Truant causes a miss of one turn, why not u stack their effects on each other?

or does it mean 1 turn of truant then the next turn of recharge?

because then you can't switch out on the traunt turn. That basically means that anything that can take a hit from that can come in, set up for a turn, and then sweep your team. Ghost that set up and tyranitar come to mind. Also, anything with protect would beat any Slaking, so it isn't as good as it seems.
 
After getting the Life Orb at Stark Mountain, is there ANY way to get another? Can you transfer one from Pokemon Battle Revolution, is it attached to any wild Pokemon, or is that Life Orb the only one in the game you can get without deleting your save data and starting a new game?

And speaking of Pokemon Battle Revolution, it says that "once a gift is transfered, the same type of gift will not be able to be distributed." Does that mean I can only get one of any certain TM/evolution item/boosting item from Pokemon Battle Revolution, or is that just for the Pikachu, Electivire and Magmortar? I distributed a Dragon Claw TM back at the end of July, and don't feel like burning those Pokecoupons risking it again for nothing.

Because the recharge from Giga Impact forces you to stay in while you could normally switch during the Truant turn, thus making you revenge-kill bait while Slaking's main job should be to take down as many things as possible.
 
Is this legal?

~Rampardos

Hampardos@Choice Band/Focus Sash
Move 1:Head Smash (52)
Move 2:Hammer Arm (Breed from Rhyhorn)
Move 3:Crunch (Breed from TTar)
Move 4:Earthquake (TM26)
Ability: Mold Breaker
Nature:Brave
EVs: 252 Atk, 252 HP, 4Sdef


It's for a TR team. My custom moveset, please don't criticize because it go along with my team.

Now, I have a male Rhyhorn with Stone Edge and Hammer Arm. I have a male Tyranitar with Crunch. I bred a female Cranidos with the Rhyhorn, so it now has Stone Edge and Hammer Arm. Yet when I breed that female with the Tyranitar, the baby only gets Crunch as an egg move, no Hammer, no Edge.

:pirate:

Am I missing something? Is that moveset impossible? Or do I start with a male Cranidos with Stone and Hammer, female with Crunch and go from there? Do I need some other parents? Please help, I've been at this for 3 days with no luck.
 
Yet when I breed that female with the Tyranitar...

Egg moves are only passed down from the Male parent.

I believe you have to:
1. Breed a Male Larvitar /w Crunch with a Female Rhyhorn.
2. Obtain a Male Rhyhorn from this pair. It will have Crunch.
3. Level up the Rhyhorn until it evolves. It will learn Hammer Arm at level 42.
4. Breed this Male Rhyhorn with a Female Rampardos.
5. Celebrate.
 
Not sure where this goes, but I was wondering if a team consisting of Gallade, Scizor, and Absol in competitive battling will work at all.. Anyone have any suggestions for what the other 3 pokemon and possible movesets for the team would be? I wanna have those 3 cause they look so cool >_>; Sorry if I'm asking for too much xD;
 
I'm not the expert on teams/movesets by any means, but it seems like those three, while being pretty damn cool looking, aren't slow enough to be Trick Room material but aren't fast enough to out-speed much of anything, so I don't know. I should let someone else answer it.
 
If a Butterfree has Compoundeyes and Wide Lens, and it uses Sleep Powder, will Sleep Powder have essentially a 100% accuracy? Since 75 * 1.3 * 1.1 = 107.25%? Or can you not stack Compoundeyes with Wide Lens?

Yup, it will be 100 accuracy, though I'd reccomend a Focus Sash on Butterfree, your choice.
 
Okay thanks. It's just that I'm not exactly the luckiest person (I mean like almost ALL the time I have to use my Hypnosis 2-3 times before it hits once, and then they always wake up the next turn), so that 3% chance for me missing will come back to haunt me.
 
i know you need max happiness on a dragon pokémon to get draco meteor. but is there a limit to how many times you can learn it?

and where's the tutor?
 
Okay, hope this is a simple enough question... but I was thinking of raising up a substitute/leech seeding Sceptile with Special Attack, and was wondering what I should have for a fourth move as it's in-game and HP Fire would be impossible?

I was thinking either Focus Blast or Dragon Pulse... but I'm not sure.
 
Dragon Pulse hits everything but steels neutral, so it's a good choice in my opinion. Focus Blast gives you coverage on steels, but misses too much in my opinion.

And, after all, steels can be seeded.
 
if i would use

cresselia with rest, sleep talk, psyco shift, ice beam
which ev spread would be better.

252hp/252def/6spa or 252hp/136spa/122 def

Yes, they could probably work very well. Gallade is an excellent special tank that can cripple your opponents team with its Will-o-wisp, Hypnosis, and Thunder Wave, Scizor is an amazing Baton Passer, but can also be used to as a Physical Sweeper, aided by is great defenses. I haven't had any luck with Absol, but it could be used as an effective sweeper, or try to use it as a Trap-Passer, sealing your opponent's Pokemon's death.

Can someone tell me exactly how many of which berries it would take to completely remove ALL evs from a pokemon?

I caught a great heatran a while ago but screwed up the EVs completely, and now i don't remember what EVs i gave it and would like to redo it.
