Yes, but they are fast.

A swellow switched on my mence after I killed the other guys poke, used protect to active orb, then lauched a facade next turn to kill my mence...x.x

Its powerful
 
hey yoko rains (the kakashi guy)

Good Regirock natures are probably Impish, Adamant, Brave, Relaxed, Sassy, Careful.

Only use Sassy and Careful on a Sand storm team.

Registeel can use almsot any nature because it's attack stats and defences are equal to one another. However, some that stand out as good include Bold, Impish, Relaxed, Careful, Sassy, Calm.
 
dumb question: is it possible to trade with other players before getting the national dex? ive acquired a pokemon diamond but kinda want to send over some low-level ev-trained shit to beat it with (like the dratini i recently got in a trade) that way the time spent playing through isn't a complete "waste"
 
Oh yeah, and you were talking about Regice a while back? well, if you use one, try going for 252 defense. It's really really bulky that way. Lets just say Weavile's LO Brick Break would 4HKO, (it did 36 to 39%) and Garchomps Outrage did 52% ... so with leftovers you can easily take physical volleys as well, and kill their counter.

Some other guys that thought they could kill Regice and got beaten down by Ice Beam included Mamoswine, Charizard, Gyardos... its a great poke.

Yes. I started my D/P game with Eevee, Corphish and Budew by trading with my brother. It's really fun, but if you level them up too quikcly, they won't obey you.

Is this bold regice or calm? o_O
 
Calm Regice. I use it on shoddy, and people freak out when their physical attacks don't kill it off.

EDIT: about the Weavile thing, I forgot, it had Focus Sash, not Life Orb. So Weavile does more than I thought. Garchomp still can't OHKO after Leftovers factors in.
 
Ok, here goes.

Regice @ Leftovers

Calm 204 HP, 252 DEF, 54 Sp. ATK

Ice Beam/Blizzard
Charge Beam/Thunderbolt/Thunder
Sleep Talk
Rest

Basically, I switch in on a special attacker, they switch to a physical attacker. I charge beam it, try for special attack boosts, rest off damage and absorb status. Ice Beam does a lot of damage even with almost no EVs. Charge Beam prevents waters from trying to stall you out, and helps beat Blissey 1 vs 1.

Regice is one of the only pokemon the learns BoltBeam, but gets stab for the ice move : O

If you want more Special wallage, put the 54 into special defense. I find that 470+ is enough for me. If you want to guarenteed survive two maximum damage Outrages, get 364 HP. Otherwise, you get 352; a leftovers number.

Right on. Regice > Blissey all the way : )
Click to expand...
Incorrect. Regice is a far cry from Blissey in terms of Special Defense, which is to be considered in tandem with HP; it also lacks immediate healing and has a Stealth Rock weakness, which detracts from it very much as far as walling is concerned. Regice tops Blissey only very slightly in terms of physical defense, but loses a lot of support options. Additionally, while Blissey can use Calm Mind to supplement its mediocre 75 base Special Attack, Regice is stuck at its 100 base Special Attack unless it uses Charge Beam. Regice also simply doesn't have Blissey's extent of coverage; Regice needs Seismic Toss or Psych Up to beat, say, Raikou, which means it sacrifices either an Electric move or Sleep Talk, the former reducing type coverage significantly, and the latter leaving it helpless when it tries to heal. In summary, it is fallacious and indicative of little experience to suggest that Regice may even approach Blissey's level of special walling, much less exceed it.
 
Usually Charge Beam / Ice Beam / Rest / Sleep Talk has been the best moveset to me.

I guess I do have this wierd question, but nevertheless here goes. I've been looking for a special wall that learns Wish. Now before you say "Wish Blissey!" or "Wish HYPNO YEAAH!", I am making this for my Wi-Fi Team. In other words, no NYPC - learned moves. Could anyone at least name off a couple of them that could work in the OU environment? Thanks if you can seriously answer this.

EDIT: Good physical wall-like Pokemon would be good to know as well if you can ramble ones that could work.
 
Aside from those, Gardevoir and Togekiss are semi-sturdy on the special side; Togekiss also learns Baton Pass to make passing easier.
 
Thanks. I'm guessing Leafeon is a bit crappy for it, eh? (Toxic Spikes =/= Yawn). That should be decent enough for answers on my question.

EDIT: Yeah I forgot. "FUCK UMBREON" was what I promised thyself after battling Lee. >_>
 
How do you do the most damage? What Pokemon should you use, and what should you attack? When I say this, I mean damage percent, so I'd be having a Lv. 100, my opponent a Lv 1. The Lv. 1 must be super weak against the attack I'm using, and the attack I'm using must be a STAB'ed, Choiced (or some kind of stat boster) and be an attack that goes into the monsters strong parts (if the monster I'm using has high Attack it must be a Physical move, and vice versa). So how/what would I need to inflict max damage?
 
I'd say Jirachi as the special Wisher. With 100 HP and 100 Sp defence, plus resistances to Ice, Psychic, >>DRAGON<<, Grass, Steel, Flying and Rock. Unlike Umbreon, he can actually do damage too and has the very important U-Turn attack.

Make sure you have something to take Fire attacks though.

+6 Modest Specs Overheat in the Sun vs -6 min defence Shedinja Critical hit would do it.
 
Um just curious... WHY do you want to know this :D


Oh, and I can't take credit for that, I noticed it in some dude's sig
