Pokemon Platinum - The definitive thread: Mach 3 (Competitive Discussion)

Why doesn't Altaria get Outrage? F**k Salamence, the only UU dragon is now the only non-Outrage Dragon as well...


If you read the first topic post you'd note that that what pokemon gets what hasn't been confirmed 100% yet so there is still a chance it does.
 
The current members of my in-game party are: Infernape, Alakazam, Gengar, Golbite and Gabite.

There are the moves they get from tutor on 212:

Gengar: Icy Wind, Thunder Punch, Fire Punch, Ice Punch, knock off, Trick, Ominous Wind, Sucker Punch

Golbat: Ominous Wind, Air Cutter (Damn! No knock off!??)

Infernape: Fire Punch, Vacuum Wave (sorry folks, still got to breed your thunderpunch on)

Gabite: Fury Cutter xD

Alakazam: Thunder Punch, Fire Punch, Ice Punch, Trick, Knock Off
No Vacuum Wave!

So, everyone who was fantasizing about Vacuum Wave Alakazam can just keep fantasizing I guess. >.> Hypnosis Gengar may be crying, but the era of Trick-Scarf Gengar has begun!! xD
 
Gengar
Timid
@Black Sludge
Trick
Substitute
Shadow Ball
Hypnosis/Focus Blast/Destiny Bond/Explosion

Sounds like riot


Lead Scarfgar with trick would be fun for those Deoxys S users. Trick them scarf as they set up screens or SR. lol
 
Sihk, I don't know-- I don't have a blaziken on my team. I'm sure someone will get around to testing it. I do have a couple of different level 1 torchics in my Diamond, but I got other stuff to do right now.
 
Wait, nevermind, I checked the list yesterday and it does get ThunderPunch I just forgot for moment :P

No need to breed for Everstone then I guess :/
 
1) Will be possible battle from Platinum vs Pearl?
Remember CB Pursuit in Japanese D/P? Well I think it works in the same way

Also, if Hypnosis' acc went down, did Recover's PP go back up to 20?
 
Sorry Jibaku, my Alakazam's recover is still only 10 pp

edit: Also for in-game players, it also seems epic to me that gengar gets Icy Wind. HP Ice Gars just lost some value.

Sorry Jibaku...I don't remember

I don't know so much about the Japanese game of pokemon

What happened?....and so what do you think will happen?

Thanks for the info on Gengar. Looks like he won't be so broken (as in tossed aside).

Heh, what if Scizor and Gengar meet up, and Scizor decides to use Swords Dance... and you Trick whatever item you're holding to it, most likely Choice whatever. It's locked into Swords Dance for the moment, and you probably got a Life Orb in exchange.

Hmm....

I love you Gengar.
 
Later game's settings override.

Eww gengar gets trick what the hell now alakazam has a smaller niche eww that's more annoying than hypnosis eww

porygonz trick seems less awesome now.
 
Though gengar already has some major 4-slot syndrom with Shadow Ball, Focus Blast and Thunderbolt to consider. Yeah, I'm guessing HP Fire would be the next option. Maybe HP Fighting for those who hate focus blast's accuracy?

Anyway, yeah GameFreaks still has not forgiven Alakazam for being such an RBY beast. No Vacuum Wave, and whoring out its best niche-move (trick) to Gengar of all pokes.

Trick Gengar is the way of the future! lol

How many want to bet Azelf also gets trick? >.>
 
I think Roserade went up in value because of Hypnosis losing accuracy :D

In Celestic now, I need to find the move deleter to get rid of one of my moves ... or get a Surf poke :(
 
Is Azumarill getting Ice Punch or what :( I just want to run Aqua Yet and Ice Punch on the same set. Would've been awesome. OR i'm blind and i haven't seen it.
 
oh man gengar getting trick is insanely awesome ._.



again is there anyone testing hypnosis? wdro my man are you down?
