I'm really thinking of dropping this dumb Zebra. So far the moveset is pretty decent: (lvl 20), Shock Wave, Charge, Paralyzing move + Flame Charge, but I hate how frail it is.

The Green Monkey too, so fucking frail to shitty Herdier and Patrat normal attack moves.

the rock flying is pretty good though, it just has a bad ability but high attack stats..

yeah, thing is you pretty much have to lead with it because if it takes a hit it becomes totally useless

i think my main problem is a water, the waters in this gen suck

Shock Wave is useless since it's a physical attacker. It gets Spark at ~20, and Stomp at 29. I dropped it at 31 though in favor of Galvantula (the electric spider), and it was a great decision. It's actually even MORE frail than Zebstrika, but those things aren't meant for defense anyway. I mainly like it more because Compoundeyes+STAB Thunder=massive rape

I got that mole in the very first cave right after the first gym >.> It took like thirty seconds.

@ kyuukyuu: I want to try that Victory Road Bug/Steel. Durant or whatever.

Any recommendations for a Special Wall? Right now I'm using a Jellicent, but he doesn't seem that good. That Snow-Flake guy seems pretty decent.

For sure, Victini is a GOOD pokemon. But no, he's not at all overpowered.


Don't use Ice as a wall. You can probably get away with it in story mode, but competitively, it will get murdered by Stealth Rock and Fighting Pokemon.

On a side note: It seems like the starter and the legendary Water may be the only Water types worth using this gen. The sea turtle from the fossil may be good, as well as the Pringles thing. And the thing that looks like it's the evolution of Luvdisc has 165 HP.

I just got the main story done. The post-game isn't as good as HG/SS though.

The Elite Four and the end bosses were ridiculously hard. Especially Getssiisisisisidisi... the robe guy. That Dark/Dragon Pokemon he had just murdered me.

Ok, so they ramp up the game after you beat it, but just because everywhere you go everyone is 10 lvls higher. Already got a good ferrothorn to start a mean barrier team, can't wait to battle real people.

I'm super psyched for the 5th gen. The zone is stupidly big and cool, the number of features is ridiculous for a DS title and the MP looks really promising as well.

I want Ash's old eyes back though.

So, who'd you guys use for the 2nd gym leader? I'm trying to use Timburr, but finding that he's pretty weak, especially tho that squirrel wearing a shirt that she uses. That thing trashes me.

Why do people hate Serperior? With 113 Speed, and 95 defenses, Substitute/Leech Seed/Glare/Torment (maybe Giga Drain?) @ Leftovers is an absolutely sickening moveset.


Subseed is only good in competitive play and even then i use Breloom instead because it does it plain better with poison heal, spore, and focus punch.

As for plain power? The only good grass is Shaymin and especially Shaymin-s. High speed, spatk, and seed flare and if it's S forme stab air slash as well.

Gen 5 starters are really lackluster. Infernape was far superior, Swampert and Empoleon were better and grass traditionally suck anyway.
Python is garbage, number 1 advocate of getting rid of it.

I used Timburr. That squirrel thing sucks, so I was like "No way that's gonna defeat my Timburr. Then it uses Retaliation (I had never seen it before), and I was like "WTF JUST HAPPENED?!" Thankfully, I had Roggenrola >.>

Speaking of which, just got my Gigalith and Conkeldurr

Conkeldurr = Stupidly powerful... basically carrying me this game.

At first, I was getting destroyed trying to rely on my grass started (pulled the whole "100% of xp goes to my starter" so that I can just walk through the game... this gen, not so much) So I got owned for a while, then got Conkeldurr and basically just had him 6:0 every trainer in the game. Fighting + Rock + Ground + Normal move set on a 140 attack stat = everything just rolls over.

You mean Manaphy.

None of the fairies are all that great really. Just interesting typings with broad movepools (except for Manaphy).
