Why would Zapdos not work as a lead?

To the person above me, Gengar sucks as a lead. I'd never start with something that has the potential to be OHKOed by Weavile no matter what I do.

I didn't say it wouldn't, but I only just replaced my crobat lead so i wasn't sure what to lead with now.
 
^^I know of one that I used to use on my team:

Tyranitar@life orb
Docile Nature
232 Sp. Atk, 200 Spd, 76 atk
-Stone Edge/Earthquake
-Crunch
-Ice Beam
-Fire Blast

Takes out one pokemon almost all of the time. I prefer Earthquake for fellow Tyranitar leads, but without Stone Edge, Blissey will not be reliably 2hko'd if it has max hp/max def.

The main idea with this set is to predict your opponent's move and attack correspondingly. Fire Blast OHKO's Skarmory, Forretress, while easily 2HKO's Bronzong, Jirachi. Ice Beam OHKO's Dragons and Gliscor, a common counter, while 2HKOing Hippowodon. Crunch hits Gengars and Azelfs who don't switch fearing a CB Pursuit; Fire Blast takes care of Weavile.

With this lead, you can expect to make a bold first move because the opponent most likely thinks you are running CB Tar and switch or attack accordingly. Your opponent's perception and prediction most likely will lead to their downfall if you predict correctly. Tyranitar is also an amazingly bulky pokemon and works well lategame as a wall-breaker. Mixtar is easily one of the best leads.


Idk but I'm not particularly fond of Crobat leads because after hypnosis they seem like a fast, offensively-challenged pokemon. Too bad Nasty Plot+Hypnosis and Hypnosis+Brave Bird is illegal.
 
oh is driftblim a good starter?? i've tried it before and it seemed to work well but i would like to know if it is really any good. it can pass subs and stockpiles but koed by a stone edge from aerodactyl with jolly nature
 
If two pokemon breed and they both have the same egg move, will the baby have the egg move?
Example -
Lv. 1 Male Machop with egg move ice punch
Lv. I Female Machop with egg move ice punch

will the baby have ice punch?
 
Hey I guess I wasn't here during his time, but does anyone know anything about this Gunitdawg guy. He has a great spiritomb, but I know nothing about him or have even see anyone of his trade threads.
 
Some NPC in Diamond mentions there are some trees which you can coat with honey which yield rarer pokes compared to the average tree...does anyone here have a decent list of good trees? I know the tree below Hearthome City (next to the abovementioned NPC) has yielded fairly rare pokes for me; does anybody have any suggestions?
 
just use the same one if you know where it is,

just got this off GTS
magmortar lvl 100
31/18/22/31/27/31
EV's are in the wrong places (252hp instead of 252 speed) the IV spread gives me HP ice 70 so its very usabe, i am concerned about trying to reset the EV's so i can swap the HP and speed EV's around and make it choice specs magmortar, but i would rather have what i have currently ev spread wise rather then take a huge risk on a reset method thats not proven
 
I bred two pokemon together. Today, I noticed that the DS clock was messed up by about a year, so I changed it and when I looked at all my eggs. It said that they had been received in Mystery Zone on January 1, 2000.
 
I'm really sure that it's not hacked because I bred it myself. ALL my eggs got turned that way as of today.

-_- And I was going to hatch it at The Sendoff Spring because I just got the national dex.
