I just realized, if a Smeargle uses Power Trick and then Belly Drum and then Baton Passes to Shuckle, it gets over 2000 attack. Even higher than what Attack-Deoxys can get. Have Trick Room in effect and Shuckle will always attack first.

That's quite a lot of crap to go through without the aid of a special condition on the opponent considering how fragile Smeargle is. :V

Also, Shuckle's Defenses will be virtually nonexistent, and coupled with its very low HP, priority moves will destroy it in a second.

Scizor used Bullet Punch!

This is why every Smeargle in existence has Spore. Generally you wouldn't start off with this tactic, so hopefully you get rid of most pokes with priority moves.

Although going through all that trouble to buff Shuckle is pretty stupid if something else will OHKO everything without the Tricks.

Still waiting for a second Leaf Stone.
Will trainers call me even when I'm standing still?
Got everyone else deleted except for that leaf stone girl.

NO
I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR BULBASAUR AND HOW YOU CAN'T CATCH A FUCKING DROWZEE

I DON'T WANT TO FIGHT YOUR SHITTY LV9 HOPPIPS AND HOW YOU ARE IN SYNC WITH EACH OTHER
I WANT A LEAF STONE

Machamp/Rotom used Sleep Talk!

Drake · « **Reply #247 on:** October 31, 2009, 05:33:05 AM »

Bringing Spore out on a pokemon with a possible Sleep Talk without having already figured out it's moveset is really stupid.

Prody · « **Reply #248 on:** October 31, 2009, 05:56:52 AM »

The thing is they'll switch into your smeargle.

If you switch out, Machamp gets a free dynamicpunch in to confuse your next pokemon, and Rotom uses will-o-wisp.

IMO the best way the use smeargle is a lead endeavor set or after everything that can counter smeargle has been dealt with.

Rikter · « **Reply #249 on:** October 31, 2009, 01:13:05 PM »

Could someone please explain to me whats so good about Rotom and its other forms?

Prody · « **Reply #250 on:** October 31, 2009, 01:28:06 PM »

Rotom is probably the best spin blocker, has extremely defensive typing, ability and stats, and with the extra formes it gives it an extra niche to nail some specific pokemon down. (Leaf storm for swampert, overheat for scizor)

Rotom-H is the best counter for Scizor as it resists bullet punch, and threatens to hit first hard with overheat.

Upon switching Rotom into any unprepared attacker, it'll force the opposing party to switch out, therefore allowing you to scout more of the opponent's team.

Rikter · « **Reply #251 on:** October 31, 2009, 01:35:14 PM »

Alright I guess i'll try some of them out if I decide to play on Shoddy sometime today.

EDIT: Actually I may make a team out of my name Like Zengar did.

EDIT2: Should I use Registeel, Rypherior or another Rotom form for the other R?

Prody · « **Reply #252 on:** October 31, 2009, 02:04:52 PM »

Roserade, and this will be your lead.

I forgot about Roserade.

I guess so far I have this

Roserade
Infernape
K?
Togekiess i guess the other options don't look to appealing for this letter
Empoleon
Rotom (?) Can't decide on which from and I may want to wait until i've decided on the other K member.

Pako · « **Reply #254 on:** October 31, 2009, 02:48:16 PM »

A little question for you guys:
Like we all know paralysing an opponent halves their speed and burning them halves their attack, so what if Nintendo decided to make poisoning an opponent half their defence and/or special defence.
If they did so how do you guys think this would affect the metagame?

Prody · « **Reply #255 on:** October 31, 2009, 03:06:40 PM »

That would upset the metagame a great deal. People normally use toxic and toxic spikes enough already.

Pako · « **Reply #256 on:** October 31, 2009, 03:20:30 PM »

The only pokes that would be in the game would be steel types.
It was just a question I saw on antoher forum.

Prody · « **Reply #257 on:** November 01, 2009, 03:05:56 AM »

Another forum...? Mariland? Smogon? ~~Serebii?~~

Bananamatic · « **Reply #258 on:** November 02, 2009, 04:25:15 PM »

YEAH
spent my lunch break beating E4.

I have no freaking idea how can a lv46 Meganium outspeed a lv47 Houndoom(no quick claw), but beating E4 with 3 grass pokes at 44-46 isn't a bad thing. Actually only 2, since Weepinbell sucks. Hard. :V

Prody · « **Reply #259 on:** November 03, 2009, 03:22:27 AM »

I'm pretty sure you can sweep the AI if you have sleep powder already. Sleep + Stat boosting items.

I'm avoiding the stat boosting items as they are too cheap IMO.
Still, sleep powder Exeggutor managed to sweep Aerodactyl and Charizard on his own :V

Bananamatic · « **Reply #261 on:** November 12, 2009, 02:11:47 PM »

necroposting yay

Anyways, Grass mono completed.
The only problem was Red's Charizard, as I've had to go through 50 revives before he ran out of Wing Attacks and Flamethrowers.

Finished with a lv56 Meganium and a lv55 Exeggutor. Not bad, considering I've played it on a GBA.
Weepinbell was useless, I've left the game on for hours and the second leaf stone never came.
