Ask a simple question, get a simple answer mark 2.

I dont get the math. THe power items are triple? Or are they quaddruple?

I know how much pokerus and macho brace do.

Lets say I had sneasel w/ pokerus, and I fought gyrados (that would be 4 in total) Would the power bracer make it 12?

(2x2)+(4x2)=12

The power items give 4 EVs to their corresponding stats.

 

[Vine Whip]

Ah ok. Thanks.

 

[GodofFaith]

Where is the nick guy in the pokemon D/P?

 

[Lateralus]

OK. I got a question for you guys.

I have an Adamant CB Rhyperior. It currently has Stone Edge/Earthquake/Avalanche/Megahorn.

Should i Give it Focus Punch over Avalanche?

*cough*

 

[sanjay120]

Focus Punch or Arm Hammer could both work there.

The nick guy IIRC is in Eterna city condominiums.

What's the best Blissey to use when you don't have access to Seismic Toss?

 

[Blue Ditto]

Calm Mind Bliss is useable. And now you don't have to fret about using Charm > ST.

I think Focus Punch if you use sub i don't know of Arm Hammer

 

[Dominos Pizza Pwns]

So which of these 2 then:

aromatherapy / Thunderbolt
Ice Beam
Softboiled
Sing

or

Calm Mind
Thunderbolt
Ice Beam
Softboiled

which?

Calm Mind

It's CB, and you don't need Substitute for CBPerior.

If I was to use tentacruel as a starter (don't ask), would it be worth breeding HP electric for gyarados?

 

[Treedweller]

I'm no expert on Tentacruel, but he walls Bulky Waters like no one's business, so HP Electric would be great for not only taking out Gyarados, but other water threats that they throw your way. Still, be wary of Electivire + Gyarados, if your opponent begins to become accustomed to your strategy.

As for me, I have a Calm Mind WoW Mismagius, and thanks to it's wonderful IVs, it has access to HP Ice. Which provides better coverage, Shadow Ball + Thunderbolt, or Shadow Ball + HP Ice? I know Electric prevents the set from being completely walled by steels, but I'm not sure how it fares against common Mismagius counters or Metagame threats.

 

[GLink]

Could someone link me (or just tell me) the damage formula for dp?

Also, how do i calculate a pokemon's speed after agility?

 

[ihcati]

You double the origianal speed.

 

[Taishaku]

Paralyze drops a Pokemon's Speed by how much? I can never get this number straight.

Thanks, I'm just concerned HP electric wouldn't be a 2hko on gyara. I'm not super worried about electivire, as no one would expect me to use tenta in the first place (I can also switch in cress should things go sour with electivire)

 

[pooch]

Any suggestions on an EV spread for Magnezone?

Current Speed / 4

 

[Captain Awesome]

Lets say I beat the Tower Tycoon for the first time and I have not spent a single Battle Point. How many BP would I have?

 

[Taishaku]

@Captain Awesome

3 + 3 + 20 = 26

 

[GodofFaith]

anyone know the new uber list?or link

 

[Taishaku]

@GodofFaith
That's a taboo topic. Nobody can determine tiers yet because nobody has actually used the DP Pokemon competitively.

You can guess the OU list though. Anything with decent base stats and moveset. Anything with a purpose and nothing that can totally outclass it.

Leech Seed

I apologize if this has been posted before, but I can't find a response since the thread's become so big.

Does Big Root increase the draining power of Leech Seed? I see it increases Ingrain and all the other draining grass types, so I'm hoping.

Thanks

I believe it increases Leech Seed's HEALING (not damage drained by the opponent) by 30%, along with powering up all draining moves (and subsequently the amount they drain) by 30%.
