Anyway I am thinking of raising a Muk since he was always one of my favorite pokemon to use and one of the friend safari in my game has them. What is a good nature/moveset for him and should I try for the hidden ability in the safari?

I only speak English myself so I don't know what might trigger it outside of the obvious, but I know a few days ago someone got denied because their name contained a French profanity.

Cant Ride A Bus posted:So I'm throwing together an In-game rain team (or at least the core of one) and realized only after doing all the training for my Lotad that Leech Seed has to be bred on to him. Should I hatch another or is there a different move that would work well for him? I just trained up an in-game doubles Rain team: Politoed @ Leftovers Modest, Drizzle Hypnosis Surf Psychic Ice Beam Toxicroak @ Black Sludge Adamant, Dry Skin Sucker Punch Drain Punch Poison Jab Taunt Heliolisk @ Wide Lens Modest, Dry Skin Thunder Hyper Beam Focus Blast Thunder Wave Gyrados @ Gyradosite Adamant, Intimidate Ice Fang Aqua Tail Payback Dragon Dance Got through the normal doubles without a single issue. Gyrados is the weakest link on the team, believe it or not. If the team doesn't get OHKO'd they're going to regain 50% plus of their health.

I haven't played a pokemon since red, which I played to death, loved exploring and collecting, finding new little dudes everywhere. Its quite enjoyable to relive that experience with pkmn x, some pretty good stuff. Naughty by nature

Is there any other Pokemon than Breeloom that can Learn a sleep move/false swipe? I was considering Gallade but that would be a tremendous amount of effort for a catching Pokemon. Oh man, if only Pinsir learned yawn or something, Mega-pinsir would be the best catching pokemon there is even against ghost types.

Rirse posted:That odd since I remember naming the Gen 2 water starter Sobek back in D/P. On abilities: Muk's abilities are pretty decent all around, so I can't say for sure which is the best. It'd be build-dependant. Muk can have Sticky Hold, which prevents him from losing his hold item. Not sure how prevelant moves that gently caress with hold items are in competitive battling but I know having mine messed with has annoyed me many times before. His other regular ability is Stench, which adds a chance to flinch when you use any contact attack and would be FANTASTIC if the chance were a bit higher, but as it stands is still pretty good. His hidden ability is Poison Touch, which adds a chance to poison enemies when you attack them, which is also pretty drat good (it's a much higher chance than stench's flinching as well).

I've been hunting for a honedge with red attack all evening. I finally found one, but it has blue defense. Should I just roll with it and keep moving through the single player? I guess I could always work on breeding my ideal honedge later if I get into the competitive scene.

Gallade can have Mean Look, False Swipe, Hypnosis, and Thief all at once. Hypnosis isn't the best sleep-inducing move, but grass types are vulnerable to it. In order to get Mean Look, its father must be a Haunter, and it only learns Hypnosis as a level 45 Ralts or even higher-level Kirlia, so don't let it evolve until you have it. Parasect can have False Swipe and Spore in addition to Breloom, but Breloom will probably be more useful.

Actually, I couldn't use that name in WoW, either. I've just now realized that it's probably because it contains the word 'orgie.'

I'm entirely confused by what I *should* be doing to breed Pokemon with 4-5 perfect IVs. The Friend Safari only guarantees 3 perfect ones, right? So should I just catch a million dittos and hope for the best nature, and then have the Pokemon I want breed with that? This is the first Pokemon game I've actually tried to EV train and stuff in, and it's a lot to take in. I think a breeding guide for the other confused goons out there could maybe be helpful?

Eviolite Doublade has 50% more Defense than Aegislash but 50% less Special Defense, so it's a better pure physical wall. It's nowhere near as good an attacker or special wall, though. Eviolite-less Doublade is just kind of sad.

Solus posted:I said without Eviolite, also it's worse than Aegislash because it has no Kings Shield isn't it? Well, you can attack with Doublade without lowering your defenses, so that's always nice. He's not really worth looking at without Eviolite though.
