I just realized that the Spiritomb I plan to run has troubles with Blissey. Shadow Sneak does nothing to her, and she doesn't have to attack, so Sucker Punch won't do a lot. Hypnosis and WoW can be healed.

Any suggestions, or should little Spiritomb just haul its little butt whenever it sees pink?
 
You could run it with something that could potentially scare, or to a lesser extent, trap Blissey. Dugtrio is a little risky, given Ice Beam, but it has potential I suppose. Perish Trap Mismagius has a good surprise factor.
 
In that case

(((((base stat * 2 ) + 10 ) + IV ) + EVs/4 ) + level )

This only works for HP, the other stats have another formuala.

The base stat would be 100, IV is 31, and the EVs/4 63. I think this was from the Damage Formula thread, but I forget.

yes, i was talking about a formula, thank you ryouchan. Do you know the formula for other stats as well?
 
So I plan on EV training my Politoad (the one in my thread). I am wondering if it would be better suited for Belly Drumming or for Choice Banding. Help deciding this will be greatly appreciated ^_^

Not too much of a problem. Blissey can't do anything back either. Ice Beam would deal something in the margin of 15% and Spiritomb isn't too bothered about being paralysed. At worst, you'll stall Blissey out of her Ice Beams thanks to Pressure, at which point she becomes fair game for Garchomp.

Just be a (BAN ME PLEASE) and stall her. Maybe fit Pain Split in there too to keep yourself at 100%.

If I decide to use Pain Split, what should I get rid of in exchange?
 
I bred a male ratatta with pursuit with a female weavile with ice punch the baby ended up knowing
Scratch, Leer, Taunt, and Pursuit.

What happened to ice punch?

What happened to ice punch?

only males pass moves. not females

males pass moves

females pass species

so the mom's icepunch is lost. now if the dad had icepunch then it would be passed
 
EDIT: Without Smeargle, it's impossible, I'd think.

So how can I get pursuit and ice punch on Sneasel? I can't really figure it out.. or is it impossible?

If it were at all possible, I would start with Hitmonchan.

Of course, through my relatively quick, and therefore flimsy, research, it's impossible. =/
 
In the wild, I don't think so. You can do a double battle with something that can use it though (such as Hitmonchan, Jynx, Medicham) as your partner and sketch off them.
 
Okay. So I know where I can sketch Pursuit from. Ratattas! Can I get Ice Punch in the wilds?

Get anything that can learn it that's faster than Smeargle, but not strong enough to kill it, and enter a Double battle.

Looking at Serebii's attackdex, nothing can learn it in the wild.
