It could work, but once they see Garchomp they are going to pound it to avoid a sweep.

 

[Jimbo]

That'd be a great plan if anything that got Skill Swap also got Huge Power (I.e Azumarrill and Medicham)...

tim, I haven't seen it often, only on Mixmence's...

 

[misdreavus79]

Its HP sucks (Flying, 34). And it's actually 26/2/2/28/24/25. I just calculated again. I'm also not forseeing a choice specs set. Maybe a scarf set (it's modest).

Anybody?

 

[overlord]

my lucario has hidden power ice but its power is only 57 should i use it over dragon pulse? its nature is modest and it has 25 sp.attack and 31 speed ivs.

can sum1 answer this one too?

 

[misdreavus79]

Against a salamence/garchomp/dragonite/Flygon:

HP Ice = 228 BP
Dragon Pulse = 160 BP

Take your choice. More often than not, HP Ice will be doing more damage than Dragon Pulse.

For all the UU battlers, how do you go about making a team and such?

For all the UU battlers, how do you go about making a team and such?

Well for me personally, I like to browse the RMT forum, and look at a few select RMT's (Based on UU of course)from experienced users. Then I find some strategies that work with my regular OU team and see if any of those UU Pokemon that were used could find replacement spots on this team.
Ie: I would normally use a Specsmence or Specsed Gengar to be my special sweeper, but manetric or Jynx fit those roles very well. Then continue to do that for the rest of them.
AND UU has many unique abilities and combos (Bibarel's Simple ability) that are just fun to try. They may not always be effective, but If you combo it well with the rest of your team, it could be very sucessful.

This is also because HP ice is a 4x multiplier whilst Dragon Pulse is only 2x.
I would suggest HP ice anyway... you get better type coverage.

So basicly take your OU team and "UU'fy" it?

[JerryBeans]

hope this is simple enough

would a 252 ev sp.atk timid heatran (with 31 sp.atk ivs) ohko a sassy bronzong (with 252 hp and 128 sp.def evs, with 31 ivs in both) (that isn't heatproof) with overheat

I suck at useing the damage calc and want to double check

No, not with Fire Spin.

I knew I forgot something x(

with overheat is the move though

If I did this right, 90% of the time, yes. The other 10%, it will miss.
Calculated here.
(Stats: Attacking Sp.Atk. 359; Defending 338 HP, 300 Sp.Def) (STAB, 2x weak)
Damage: 360-426

As far as the sleep cause is concerned, if my opponet uses sleep powder and i use magic coat, and his poke fall asleep does this count against the sleep cause?

 

[Pokefreak25]

ok
www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/linoone
It says for the belly drumming set that Linoone can learn ExtremeSpeed, but I have searched on Serebii.net and Marriland's poxedex but I cant find a way to get a Linoone to learn ExtremeSpeed. Is the thing on Smogon a mistake, or am I looking in the wrong place?

 

[Venom]

The only way is to get a Zigzagoon from Pokemon Box R/S, it comes in a Egg.

Any thoughts?

So that is the only way I can get a Linoone with extreme speed on my D/P? To migrate the one from R/S/E that comes in an egg?

 

[Pokefreak25]

I think that since you invoked the Sleep Clause, if someone gets DQed, it is you

 

[justenough215]

i figured as much, but if you think about it, with magic coat up, in a way the opponent put himself to sleep lol. thanks

 

[Chirnobyl]

hmm, iirc it doesn't count as you putting your opponent to sleep, therefore it shouldn't break sleep clause, it's similar to Sleep Talking Psycho Shift and giving sleep to your opponent... though both cases I don't quite remember...

 

[Imran]

can you save the log of a battle you just quit? (I'm assuming no, but I just want to check :P

 

[Eersnot]

Goldfan, explain more clearly what do you mean by "save the log of a battle you just quit"? like you win or loose then you close the window? If so you cant unless you saved it before you left the room.

So that is the only way I can get a Linoone with extreme speed on my D/P? To migrate the one from R/S/E that comes in an egg?

No. you need to buy Pokemon Box for the Game Cube its sort of like Pokemon Ranch all its for is extra storage. Somewhere along the game you get a Zigzagoon egg, that you must transfer to your ADV game. When it hatches it has Extreme Speed as s special move. Then from there you can migrate it to D/P.
