Your Favorite Pokemon Duos?

noob3

You all know some of these, like Skarmbliss, Heatgrowth (or whatever it's called, lol) & Gyrados+Electivire. What are your personal favorite combinations, or just 2 Pokes that you find to go good together?

I like Jirachi+Gengar
 
For stalling I seem to have success with Hippowdon and Milotic, switching back and forth. Kinda situational though.

I REALLY love Memento + WOW Spiritomb into a Houndoom switch, that allows for some stellar set ups.

Those don't really count as much as something like heatgrowth, but still.
 
i'm pretty sure

Gyravire (gyarados+electivire)
Growthran (Tangrowth+heatran)
Skarmbliss (Skarmory+blissey)

are the only official 2 poke comboes out there (as in, have nicknames)
 
In adv we used to have Dugtrio and Magneton to counter SkarmBliss. We could still consider Dugtrio and Magnezone, if SkarmBliss was as threatning now as it did on 3rd gen.

It may looks like I'm trying to annoy you, but seriously, what do Celebi and Blaziken have in special?

Well...not really, I just like to BP Subs and CMs from Celebi to Blaziken. It's kinda cool that Blaziken resists or takes neutral from nearly all of Celebi's weaknesses when Celebi BPs (4x resists bug, 2x resists Fire, Ice, Dark, neutral from poison and ghost, but takes SE from flying...but how often do you see anything besides Mamoswine, Togekiss, or Staraptor carry a Flying move?), not to mention Celebi resists three of Blaziken's weaknesses (Water, Ground, and Psychic) so such moves probably won't come my way when I BP. Not to mention the sub lets Blaziken get in a free hit or set up an Agility.

Nothing really special...but I like it. Guess it could work with SD and Sub, too...
 
Since I'm an obvious advocate of these, I'll just list the ones I like instead of explaining since I've probably explained them many times before.

Shuckle + Dugtrio
Shuckle + Magnezone
Shuckle + Bibarel
...God forbid Shuckle + Wobbuffet :D
 
I need to fit in a ,antine into my team as it was my fav and what do I come up with?

MANTIVIRE

Basically it's gyravire, save the intimide and taunt, but it's a little more obscure as noone expects a mantine in OU in the firstplace, let alone a switch in to erectivire
 
Oh, if we're doing doubles...I kinda like Ampharos + Slowking, although it's stopped by anyone who smells what I'm up to first turn.

i can also imagine maybe two pokemon with intimidate, for example, Gyrados and staraptor, could be a good anti metagame lead as they could seriously screw over an exploder, and one can even U-turn to safety.

That idea just made me erectivired.
 
Hippowdon + Skarmory is the ultimate physical resistance duo, being able to set up Spikes, Stealth Rock and Sandstorm while having two reliable recovery moves to soak up hits with their massive defenses. Also, they don't share any weaknesses. Forretress + Hippowdon could also work, though you're more dependent on Hippowdon for PHazing.
 
Oh yeah I didn't see it so BlissSkarm. For obvious reasons. And also Ninjask Baton Passing speed boosts and swords dances to Marowak.
 
For walls, I like Dusknoir and Umbreon. Usually a physical Dusknoir and Special Umbreon, but I have used mixed or reverse of both. (Special Dusknoir and physical Umbreon)

Say Dusknoir is out first, and they are gonna go for a psychic attack, Umbreon absorbs that, and same with Dusknoir absorbing Umbreon's fighting weakness.

Sweepers I like Starmie and Electivire, or sometimes Dugtrio.
