The national dex is available immediately after defeating or capturing the primal legendary. You do not need to have the rain badge to obtain it, he tells you about it whether you already have it or not.

Upon reflection, I think I may try some of the more devious tactics as employed by the other Battle Tower goers. Trick Scarving, Sub-based OHKO protection, safely managed setting up and all other manner of devilishness seems to be the order of the day. Back to the drawing board (read: Battle...

The idea with using Magnezone in the first place was his ability to avoid OHKO moves while still fulfilling an important function to a high standard. Removing Magnezone and replacing him with a physical sweeper would add a weakness in my team to ground types with high defence. Bliss can't TWave...

Thank you for the suggestion. As luck would have it I have a similar Garchomp I can (and will) test the substitution with although the Mamoswine weakness isn't as prevalent if the wall space is occupied by a flier or levitator which can take EQs and won't be as vulnerable to Ice Shard...

Returning to Pokémon after six or so months of inactivity upon getting Heart Gold my taste for victory at the Battle Tower is as strong as ever. The idea is the conventional Sweeper, Wall, Sponge to try and be as versatile in the Battle Tower as possible. The threats of OHKO moves and adjusted...

Whats the use in Stat-upping if you only have one attack. The opponent will pick up on this and force switching. BoltBeam is there as a part of Blisseys Strat, not just randomly. Its not there as a Cleric.

Asuming he's paralysed everything into oblivion, Machamp isnt going to have much issues outspeeding things. You might want to have something which will 100% Destroy a boosted Electivire, because its going to be pretty easy for him to exploit this. Uxie is your only poke that isnt weak to 'Vires...

But yeah, the game wont remember that at level 50 it was untrained, so they will be recalculated to whatever they would have been IF they had been trained.

Yeah, Theres not much to critique about that team without looking stupid, take it as a complement.

Said the Hare to the Turtoise. I play too absent mindedly for sweeping in the battle tower, -I fail at tekken- death coming from mistakes too easily. http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23270 shows MANY succesful bulky or wall orrientated teams, Could someone please humor me, rather...

The Mence/Bliss/Suicune was a proven team by others, because of IV glitches in FR/LG Suicune was enfebled. I then desided to switch to forretress because of this, and some other niggles i had. Walls i found, performed MUCH better than my sweeping orientated team i originally planned, a...

One of the very reasons forry wants Counter. Deals with fat phs attackers like the Hippo or Skarm

Did you manage to get a hold of a Ice Punch AND DD feraligatr? if you can't get one (DD+Ice Punch on Dragonite on emerald, import to D/P, breed with female Totodile) I can hook you up with a male Toto with both moves for nothing much, i can add in Jolly too, for outspeeding Jolteon after a...

That too is debatable, some would say he's so fragile it doesn't matter if he looses a little HP each turn. It depends on Opinion, if you'd rather you miss more but hit for more, or go with Rock Slide. I dont like either of them, But thats my opinion. Same goes for Life Orb/choice Band...
