I'm obviously not a veteran or whatever to the process, but it seems obvious to me that the best way to handle megas in tiering is to simply tier the base Pokemon appropriately, then see if the mega stone is too powerful for that tier, and if so, bump it up. Completely ignoring Scizorite...

This is great, but Shuckle is still only in the Bug group so it doesn't expand the possible breeding options unless something in Smeargle's group somehow learns it. It's also at least reassuring that this isn't a spider-only move. Current web status: Confirmed: Ariados and Shuckle Extremely...

Soft reset to get my Rare Candies back and levelled Scatterbug to 30 manually, still hasn't learned how to shot web. Seems like Vivillion isn't getting it after all.

Powerlevelled Scatterbug to 21, no Sticky Web. Stuffed it with all my Rare Candies (saving beforehand, obviously), no Sticky Web. Let it evolve at 27, took Spewpa to the move rememeberer, no Sticky Web. It's possible it learns it at 30 or something, but I'm not finding any webs in my...

Working on confirming this, though I'm surprised nobody tried it before. I'm highly doubtful Venipede, Sewaddle and Larvesta get it, but I'll try with Scatterbug, Weedle and Wurmple for good measure.

So there were no Galvantulas or Joltiks on the GTS, but I got a friend of a friend to borrow Ariados and let me play around with the web. Makeshift battle log, keeping in mind I might have transcripted some of the battle messages wrong: Long story short Rapid Spin clears it, Clear Body blocks...

Nope, Pineco doesn't get it from breeding either. Though I did check the move rememberer while I was waiting for the egg to hatch, and Forretress learns Heavy Slam, Zap Cannon and Magnet Rise at level 0 as well as 60/64/70 respectively, if it's any consolation. Ariados is the father, level 59...

I don't have much to breed with but I can at least confirm that Shelmet and Dwebble don't get it as an egg move from Ariados. edit: did more breeding, Paras and Venipede don't get it either. If it wasn't already obvious it's a single-stack entry hazard that lowers Speed by 1 stage and...

ok yeah you guys have good points, i just tend to rate ingame pokemon based on their attacking abilities and it felt like the bug typing didnt give much offensive utility until way too late in the game also i totally did not realize there was a pre-endgame bug bite tutor derp

may as well throw in my cents regarding the team i used ingame, currently training to take on gym 7 Growlithe: Middle Tier Availability: Early on, after the first Gym. Stats: Respectable all-around, no real glaring issues. Typing: Fire isn't necessarily bad, though it goes through a rough...

i'm not sure if this should go her eor in the simple question thread, but can anyone explain the whole breeding thing to me in bw2? i mean i know you can't do it, but i've scoured the internet and i can't find an actual explanation as to why, and now i'm overly curious i know it's because of...

Just casually looking through the tutor list, my thoughts: -Caterpie and Weedle got tossed Electroweb which is...kind of odd. -Everything with wings that isn't flammable got Heat Wave; should be interesting to see if that changes much, since all those birds can actually hurt steels now...

Gonna hazard a guess as to the new forms' stats: Tornadus: 79/115/70/125/80/111 -> 79/60/130/60/130/121 Thundurus: 79/115/70/125/80/111 -> 79/100/65/145/80/101 Landorus: 89/125/90/115/80/101 -> 99/145/80/90/85/101 Sure, 145 is high, but after Chandelure and Haxorus it isn't that implausible.
