With Mega Sceptile's high Special Attack, it's a great filler move, plus it seems to come in handy a lot (other than its bad accuracy). - Roost Other good moves you can consider are Brick Break, X-Scissor, Power-Up Punch and False Swipe (to catch Pokemon). Fly is Crobat's main STAB, but if you don't want to wait 2 turns you can use Acrobatics. - Earthquake Surf: Until a Water type is obtained. - Energy Ball - Power-Up Punch Share Playthrough), Sceptile @ Sceptilite (I SR'd for a Shiny - it was worth it lol) What is a good mega evolution Pokemon for my team for Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire? The other moves are pretty self explanatory, although you can use a mixed set with Psychic > Zen Headbutt for accuracy. Don't give Linoone an item as pickup gives random stuff like Revives and Repels, for Flygon don't give Yache berry as many people are just too lazy to find where they planted berries (or even plant them in the first place).and it's one time use, some random wild Pokmon's Ice-type move would waste the berry. - Earthquake. Norman: Marshtomp with Dig is very good for freely damaging the Slakings thanks to Truant. He destroys everything. - Iron Head. Rock Head is a must for Double-Edge. Magnezone is a beast. If you want Protean, catch the required Kecleon so you can DexNav for a Protean Kecleon. Heart Scales: Repeatedly use Rock Smash on Route 111 (right outside Mauville City), Sceptile @ Wide Lens / Sceptilite I went with a team I tried to balance with as many types as I could get, along with some high base stats. Route 119 Rival: Like before, Wailmer and Slugma should fall easily to Manectric and Marshtomp respectively. - Hammer Arm I have a soft spot for Treecko. Dragon STAB is surprisingly rare in Hoenn and hits a lot of things for fantastic neutral damage. TM Earthquake: Seafloor Cavern (on the main path, can't miss it) Swampert's favorite teammates include defensive Roserade, as it 4x resists Grass-type attacks and can set up Spikes that make Swampert a pain to switch into; Rhyperior, for setting up Stealth Rock and defeating Flying-type Pokemon reliably; and Flying-type Pokemon, such as Togekiss and Zapdos, to take Grass-type hits and build momentum for Earth Power is coverage and Yawn is also an option. - Cut Also useful against Steven's Metagross. Quick question, what would be a good froslass alternitive? Poison Jab: Main STAB move. 5) Great typing facing trainers like Sidney & Norman. Salamence: Meteor Falls Interior, requires Waterfall (Bagon) - Solar Beam: TM22 at the Safari Zone :), This team features not one, but two HM slaves, to allow the rest of the team to fire on all cylinders. Sceptile @ Sceptilite - Thunderbolt. Thunder Wave- Paralyzes target - Double-Edge Froslass is a pretty good BoltBeam user, with passable Special Attack and good Speed. Manectric @ Magnet / Life Orb but they are not necessary. Once you get the EXP Share, however, levelling it up becomes trivial. TM19 Roost is awarded to the player as a Prize for defeating Winona, the Fortree Gym Leader. Ability: Levitate Swampert's strongest moveset is Mud Shot & Hydro Cannon and it has a Max CP of 2,974. Roserade is here to deal with Water types when the Ralts evo of the team can't. Surf is Walrein's go-to STAB and takes the responsibility off of Linoone, Ice Beam is STAB and kills Grass-types, Crunch is filler, and Earthquake covers Electric and Rock types. Crobat - Poison/Flying Biology. Stealth Rock. Return: Pacifidlog Town You can replace Giga Drain later for Leaf Storm or Leaf Blade if you want Sceptile to be fully physical, but Giga Drain is really useful early on. Ability: Synchronize Otherwise, this team will straight up scrape anyone who tries to beat you. Glacia: Hariyama OHKOes both Glalie (and Walrein with Close Combat after a Fake Out), so the only annoyances are the Froslass. Nice dual type Pokemon. - Toxic - Psychic that are only available through, Earthquake (TM26 - Seafloor Cavern) / Rock Slide (TM80 - Route 134), Bulk Up (TM08 - Gift from Brawly) / Poison Jab (TM84 - Mirage Mountain), Surf (HM03 - Petalburg City after beating Norman) / Superpower (Level 46), Thunderbolt (TM24 - From Wattson after completing the New Mauville sidequest), Charge Beam (TM57 - Mauville City Pokmart), Dark Pulse (TM97 - Team Magma/Aqua Hideout) / Shadow Ball (TM30 - Mt. Ability: Rough Skin Leaf Blade- Good power, STAB Route 118 is also the location you get the Good Rod. I would suggest adding a Mega Stone to it, so it can actually use good Flying STAB, but that isn't available until after the postgame, to it's in the same boat as Swampert's Ice Punch, i.e. It can stand on its three-toed feet with a hunched posture, and pick up or grab objects with its hands, but when moving about it tends to run . Woah. - Frenzy Plant: from Mauville Move Tutor Ability: Trace / Synchronize > Pixilate - Hidden Power (TM) / Flash (TM) / Thunder Wave (TM)*. Sludge Bomb After you get to the E4, you can delete your HM moves and give Tentacruel more useful moves in Dazzling Gleam/ Ice Beam. They also have a Mega Evolution that makes that Dragon-type, which is pretty handy. - Fly Because his Attack was already pretty good compared to his Special Attack, there's no doubt about whether or not it would be a physical set. Can deal with Psychics with Dark Pulse and X-Scissor. - Waterfall / Dazzling Gleam Ability: Inner Focus - Moonblast: Level 62 or Move Reminder in Fallarbor Town Ability: Guts Seviper @ anything - Flamethrower Earthquake is Earthquake, no explanation needed. You can teach Manectric Thunder Wave if you don't get the Hidden Power type you want, or for when you are about to catch a Legendary Pokmon. It's a strong defensive Pokemon that packs quite the punch. - Giga Drain Flamethrower: A great coverage move. Best part? I respectfully must disagree with you on Raichu. Ninetales is the butt of my team, but still fills a key role. TM72 Volt Switch is awarded to the player as a prize for defeating Wattson. Since I decided to play through the game with the Exp. Phoebe: Give Gyarados a Persim Berry to block Dusclops Confuse Ray, and set up a Dragon Dance for free. - Shadow Ball Aggron @ Assault Vest - Leaf Storm (Move Reminder) ), Item: Swampertite So while Meteor Mash is really great STAB, it lacks reliability and accuracy. - Cross Poison Waterfall, Surf, and Dive can be alternated depending on what part of the game you're going through. Every team needs a Dragon type and [emailprotected] are great. Manectric - Dragon Claw. He has high defenses and Attack so make sure you have physical hits if you swap any moves out. replace Iron Tail for Iron Head, accuracy over power is better than power over accuracy as Iron Head is strong enough STAB for Aggron to use and its does not have that 25% chance of missing. His defenses aren't that bad so he can hold in there longer than most and he has a really good Special Attack. It was replaced with Shadow Ball once Wallace was defeated. - Leaf Blade Nasty Plot to sharply raise Special Attack and Will-O-Wisp to inflict burns (and take less physical damage). Waterfall Gyarados @ Rocky Helmet - Ice Beam. Once you get to the Battle Resort, there are a lot of good moves he can learn, including two great STAB moves! - Growl (starting move) > Mud Shot (Level 16) > Brick Break (TM31 - Sootopolis City). - Sky Uppercut / High Jump Kick Gardevoir Then give it the power bracer and you have the most OP azumarill in existence. Feint Attack and Needle Arm are STAB, Poison Jab is for Fairies, and the last move slot is more filler than anything. Energy Ball covers all weaknesses and Flamethrower is solid STAB. I taught Manectric Flash when I needed it. - Steel Wing - Moonblast - Steel Wing Great team! Fly and Iron Head are STAB. Today's team is Gen 6/3 ORAS starting with Mudkip. If you ever need Giga Drain again, you can reteach it; you don't have that option if you let Treecko evolve at L16. Your choice of Ralts evolution. Knock Off is helpful so Hariyama doesnt get completely walled by Ghosts types, but it should still be kept away from Psychic types. It is vulnerable to Grass moves. Gardevoir @ anything Ability: Torrent > Swift Swim Kiwi (Dodrio) @ King's Rock Giga Drain is also STAB and Shadow Ball is for type coverage. For its moves, Night Slash is STAB, and Psycho Cut is coverage on Fighting types. It can be given a Wacan Berry in case Salamence connects with a Thunder Punch, but its very difficult to lose this battle. Ability: Sand Veil Hey, gotta deal with 'em somehow! Just have a Pokmon in your PC knowing Dive. For Boomburst, use a Heart Scale or just level up to level 58. Dragon Claw Dragon Claw- Good power, STAB when Sceptile is Mega Evolved Hariyama destroys the Elite 4, being good against Sidney, Phoebe and Steven. Ice Beam and Flamethrower are fairly late in the game, but you could wait or substitute with another move of your choice. Iron Tail is STAB anti-Fairy, Stone Edge is also STAB. Dragon Breath Earthquake is through Heart Scale as well! Ability: Trace Seafloor Cavern Archie: Gardevoir handily deals with Archies entire team, but if youre scared of Crobat outspeeding, switch to Manectric for Discharge. Ability: Pickup Ability: Sturdy Who needs an Uber starter and the only Grass/Dragon type? So we have our first special attacker! Gardevoir is a great special attacker with an amazing movepool. - Dragon Claw If you choose not to evolve your Magneton and just give him the Eviolite from Route 123, he has less HP and less in both Attacks than Magnezone, but every other stat gets better. TM42 Faade can be purchased in Mauville City for 10,000 Pokmon Dollars. I sometimes rotate my Pokemon around, so these might not be the six I always use. - Earthquake Echoed Voice was my Swablu's best buddy till it evolved and I just couldn't part with it, not to mention how much better it gets with Pixilate. Swampert @Swampertite/Whatever else you'd like - Dragon Claw Ability: Overgrow -> Lightning Rod Gallade For the last move, you can use Rain Dance to work with Swift Swim, or you can use Rock Slide or Hammer Arm for coverage. Banette @ Banettite Giga Drain is learnt by the prior evolution, I think. - Earthquake While everyone thinks Dawn Stones are a pain to obtain just use Super Training! Time for the HM Slaves. Weezing has pretty good moves, pretty good stats, and a good defensive typing, which paired with Levitate, makes it a great physical wall. Dazzling Gleam / Will-O-Wisp: Dark types will walk all over Banette without Dazzling Gleam, but Will-O-Wisp is good for burns. Magical Leaf is good for Rock types and Water types. - U-turn. - Brick Break / Reflect, Note: Many Pokemon in this team can Mega Evolve, it's up to you who gets to do so. Swampert is my personal favorite of the three starters. Ralts can be obtained in a horde encounter on Route 104. I think Aggron is worse than Gyarados because it's unable to sweep the Elite 4 like Gyarados can. Just don't use against a Grass type. - Ice Beam Of course this doesn't always work, but the moveset I run on Ninetales highlights its strengths and covers my team pretty well. Flamethrower Ability: Sturdy Heragross is a very good physical sweeper with an interesting typing that cancels out some weaknesses. - Thunder Wave / Hidden Power [Ice] Hariyama is a very strong Pokemon with high HP and Attack stats, and has a large variety of moves to choose from. For all the people who just love Magcargo or Torkoal, I choose Camerupt due to type advantages. Finally, Rock Slide is nice coverage against Flying-types that may annoy Swampert (and is basically your only hope for Winona). Shadow Ball/Dazzling Gleam/Grass Whistle It receives. - Thunderbolt Absol @ Absolite - Fly - Ice Beam I'd keep x-scissor on MSceptile and swap EQ with Leaf storm. Actually camperupt has 5 more SpAttack than Attack. - Power-Up Punch Dazzling Gleam: Route 123 near the Berry Master's house, given by a Fairy Girl If you recommend a Pokemon that is restricted by version exclusivity, trade evolution or events, please, Do not recommend Pokemon, moves, etc. Swampert @ Soft Sand I just got her in Victory Road and after a little bit of training, she evolved. - Shadow Ball Power-Up Punch is just there to make his Attack even more OP, and the rest are coverage or fillers. 2. Winona: Manectric is a good answer to most of her team, but Gyarados may be necessary to Ice Fang her Altaria. - Cut - Shadow Claw Chimney Archie: I used a Beautifly with Silver Wind to safely take out Mightyena and Sharpedo, and Rock Slide Marshtomp for Golbat, but Manectric also works well. - Megahorn Dive Flash Cannon- Good power, STAB Discharge is the best STAB move it gets (The sidequest for TM24 Thunderbolt comes too late and is a waste of time). - Flamethrower - Surf Lenny (Linoone) @ Nothing - Drain Punch - Shadow Ball Ice Fang is coverage against Grass, and Stone Edge against Flying types. - Water Gun (starting move) > Surf (HM obtained after defeating Norman) Linoone - Return / Facade Ability: Flash Fire - Shadow Ball. Also, I must respectfully disagree with you on Aggron and Surf. - Thunderbolt You might be wondering why so few HMs. Break Aggrons Sturdy with Quick Attack, and switch to Gyarados on an Earthquake to OHKO with Waterfall. Grass Knot covers Ground types. - Close Combat: Level 43 Kiwi is my flyer. If you really want to, you can replace Headbutt with Surf for another HM move, or Shadow Claw for better coverage. Metal Sound- Harshly lowers opponent's Special Defense and pretty much makes Magnezone unstoppable. Gardevoir/Gallade: Route 103 (Ralts), Super Training (Dawn Stone) - Shadow Sneak Swampert is an amphibian-like Pokmon with a bulky frame and four thick limbs, the two longer ones at the front serving as arms while the shorter limbs provide support for the creature if it chooses to stand upright. Ability: Inner Focus I would recommend Protean as it gives him STAB on every attack, but Colour Change is still useful in a lot of cases. - Zap Cannon Crawdaunt - Water/Dark Shadow Ball and Thunderbolt or Energy Ball are coverage, or you can use Calm Mind to set up. - Confuse Ray. Swampert - holding Swampertite with the moves: -Surf -Earthquake -Ice beam -Rock Slide Magcargo - holding heat rock with the moves: -earth power -overheat -amnesia -Sunny day Magnezone holding. - Rock Smash. Dragon Pulse / Dive: Dragon Pulse for coverage or Dive for another HM. - Moonblast / Dazzling Gleam. Drake: Gyarados can set up two Dragon Dances on Altaria and proceed to sweep Drakes entire team. - Magical Leaf Dragon Claw / Dual Chop: Since Dragon Pulse isn't easily available, Dual Chop or Dragon Claw will do. If not, Earthquake for Electric types (although its attack isn't that great). Strength: HM if not on Hariyama. Ability: Flash Fire - Blaze Kick / Flare Blitz Of course Ghost is a problem, but if your entire team is wiped and Linoone is your only surviving Pokemon, you're in serious trouble anyway. Each of these Pokmon brings a lot to the team. Really, just here for raw power and Waterfall. Swampert is the aforementioned starter that's an absolute beast in competitive matches and can carry teams in PVE. Rock Smash: HM. Ability: Trace Swmapert can also be an HM slave. Greta (Gardevoir) @ Gardevoirite Metagross @ Expert Belt Manectric is a great Pokemon with high Speed and Special Attack, which is further boosted with its Mega Evolution. Absol has a super high Attack stat and good Speed. It can even learn Blizzard or Ice Beam to deal with Grass Pokemon by itself, but it isn't. Gardevoir doesn't have any great abilities, but on a rare occasion Trace can help in some cool ways. - Thunder Wave - Crunch - Fire Fang - Boomburst / Hyper Voice - Swords Dance Latios/Latias @ Latiosite / Latiasite / Soul Dew - Ice Beam Ability: Levitate Blaze Kick was Blaziken's signature move and it's an all-around great Fire STAB. - Tackle (starting move) > Rock Slide (Level 28) At least all the moves are STAB :/, Aki (Breloom) @ Silk Scarf Sceptile is easily taken care of with Crobats Acrobatics. Very little grinding is needed, there are no version exclusives, Mega Evolutions or legendaries, and the coverage is superb. Ability: Levitate Hariyama @ Silk Scarf (Each Pokmon (except for Froslass) will have an HM, including Dig. What is a good in-game team for Scarlet and Violet? - Close Combat Despite having usable STABs, [emailprotected] is obselete on the team type-wise and is generally used as an HM Slave (mostly for Dive, but Fly is also handy before getting the Eon Flute). - Night Slash You can only get a Dawn Stone from Wally after you beat him at the Victory Road, which let's you evolve your Kirlia into a Gallade. - Thunderbolt. Medicham @ Medichamite - Rock Slide / Stone Edge. Moveset. Ability: Synchronize You could also go with Alakazam but I just love Gardevoir. - Fire Blast / Flamethrower. Ninetales @ anything Flygon is one of my favorite mons of all time, plus we need a flyer, so I picked it. - Fly - Feint Attack Until then, use whatever item you think works. Now if you want. Skarmory is a very defensive Pokemon. Hariyama @ Expert Belt Thanks! Here's the team I played through Omega Ruby with! Swellow @ Sharp Beak - Rock Smash (HM) - Sludge Wave Pickup gives you free stuff, he learns a good chunk of the HMs, and he evolves early! - Flamethrower. Otherwise use Blaze Kick and Sky Uppercut, which you learn by levelling up. Endeavor- Swellow has bad defenses and will have low health often. - Brick Break / Strength - Surf And finally, in the depths on the Shoal Cave (and by the depths I mean the first room), we meet our final permanent team member, the thicc walrus. Wallace: Set up a Calm Mind or two on Luvdisc with Gardevoir, then use Magical Leaf to cleave through it and Whiscash. - Flash Canon -Moonblast Lilycove City Rival: Swellow and Wailord fall to Manectric, and Magcargo goes down to Swampert. Rock Slide: On a small island on Route 134 There isn't really much to say about them; they free up slots in the rest of the team's movesets and allow you to play the game. You could go mixed or choose Leaf Blade in place of Giga Drain and run Brick Break in place of Leaf Storm and go physical, although his base Attack isn't great compared to his Special Attack. STAB Earthquake and Waterfall from base 150 Attack is quite strong. What is a good in-game team for Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl? Frost Breath is better in most cases, because it'll be 120 STAB rather than 90, bar random Shell Armour Pokemon. Tri Attack is a decent move and is really just a filler and Flash Cannon is your Steel type STAB. - Leech Life (starting move) > Wing Attack (Level 13) > Acrobatics (Level 35) There is also a lot of water in Hoenn, so you'll probably battle a lot of trainers with Water Pokemon in the game as well. Manectric @ Manectite - Mirror Coat / Rain Dance. Ability: Inner Focus - Close Combat Close Combat / Brick Break- Your call. Toxic Spikes has to be used twice to badly poison, but it affects the whole team. Second of all I have some changes you can make. - Strength. Steel Wing is the most viable move for the last slot, since Swellow has a pretty shallow movepool. For its moves, Earthquake is its main STAB. U only have to use dusk stone on a random Snount you have. Shadow Ball: Mt Pyre, the giant casket room with the Medichamite Ability: Pressure / Super Luck --> Magic Bounce Because it is.) - Spikes, Magnezone - Facade (TM) Yawn. - Waterfall Finally an early Earthquaker! Swampert is a good defensive Pokemon, boasting key resistances to common attacking types such as Rock, Electric, Steel, Fire, and Poison-types. Fly Waterfall is your Water STAB and gets you to Ever Grande City, Play Rough is your Fairy STAB move, and Bulldoze covers its weaknesses to Electric and Poison. Arm Thrust is fairly subpar, but Force Palm is quite a solid move that will last until the midgame. Overall, just my favorite of the starters. Magnezone will be great help against Norman and Winona, but watch out for Earthquake on Altaria. As said, Crobat is another option, but on this team it shares a Psychic weakness with Tentacruel, who you can always replace with Sharpedo.
