Bronzong is not Salamence weak.

I personally think Blissey letes people set up Physical Swepers anyways.

Then how do I deal with Specsmence? Gyro Ball most likely won't do anything.

*Stares at Iron Thorn*

First off, it's not that Bronzong can't kill Salamence, it's that Salamence can't kill Special Wall Bronzong. If Salamence stays in with Draco Meteor on Bronzong, Bronzong will kill with Gyro Ball within 2-3 turns (not sure since Metalkid's can't calculate Gyro Ball yet). Bronzong can also set up Light Screen, Reflect, or Stealth Rocks.

Just put base 150, if you have the right nature and IV's, Bronzong will be damned slow and 150 is the max power of Gyro Ball

Also, go Naive, it needs as much Speed as possible.
 
Tacking onto the Shedinja question:

That means Focus Sash prevents it from dying once no matter what, correct? =D

Focus Sash means if your pokemon is hit when it has full HP, if it usually kills it, it'll survive the OHKO. The item will then be gone. If you took a little (or a lot) of damage before hand though, then the Focus Sash will stop working. In other words, it prevents a OHKO at full HP once.

I know. I said once.

Hrm...

So in order to get Shedinja, I evolve Nincada with an open slot in my party and viola! Shedinja appears with Ninjask. Does it have the same IVs as my Ninjask?

Also, if I use Endure, would Focus Sash trigger?

Shedinja will have the same IVs and EVs.

If you where to use Endure, then there's no point in Focus Sash, as they do the same thing, except the item does it automatically at full HP once. Endure does it at any HP, but will fail if used continusly (100% of working, then 50% if used again, so on so forth).

Okay... so if I switch Sehdinja into Stealth Rocks, does Focus Sash stop it from killing it?

And after Focus Sash triggers, the item discards, correct? Can I use Thief after I endure using Focus Sash to steal an item?

And if I have Focus Sash and then use Endure, will Focus Sash trigger?
 
Should I use this Roselia?


Timid Roselia
HP: 25
Atk: 10
Def: 20

Spd: 31

Hidden Power Ice 66

Sadly, it has Poison Point :( But it's so awesome, should I use it for breeding or train it up. I guess if I have a Cleric it won't matter so much, but it is really a useful trait.
