Pokémon General Discussion

[B~T]

Give me a Johto Pokemon that I haven't reviewed yet.

[Ddude The Insane]

Meganuim.

And you know what, due to my slightly increasingly busy life, plus B~T does it a lot better than me, I'll cancel meh daily review.  Sorry on the miniscule chance someone here reads my review.

I already did that one...

how about suicune?

[Magical Girl Mimi]

Blissey. =P No, scratch that, Furret, it's the Bibarel of Gen2. =P

[The Host]

Kingdra? I love that pokemon.

Has the American date for HGSS been revealed yet?

[Magical Girl Mimi]

Nope... If it was, it'd be up there with the Japanese Release Date.

[Dudebot5000]

Blissey. =P No, scratch that, Furret, it's the Bibarel of Gen2. =P

Not really. If it was, I'd be cursing it's name to the skys. =P

You know, I've always wanted to say that. =P

[Magical Girl Mimi]

Oh trust me, it is. There's nothing worse than encountering a level 2 Pokemon for the first time when your Pokemon's general levels are in the 60s >_>

[Dudebot5000]

Nice. =P

But still, I don't find it to be of the same annoyance level. =P

[Magical Girl Mimi]

*Shrugs* Okay then. Bring on Blissey then. That'd be about the same level of annoyance when you're facing one that just won't die.(Don't even get me started on RestTalk Snorlax. ... Even if I'm using one. >>

[Dudebot5000]

You know, I enjoy pwning both Blissey and Snorlax with Infernape, Electivire, and sometimes Weavile. =P

[Magical Girl Mimi]

Obviously you don't know the brokenness of the PokeFlute+Rest. =P

[Dudebot5000]

I believe I lack that knowledge. Care to explain? =P

[Magical Girl Mimi]

Rest heals fully, yet puts you to sleep. The Pokeflute, however, wakes up any sleeping Pokemon on the field. That includes the resting Pokemon. That, I believe, is part of the reason you can't use items like that in competitive play. ... I just found that out yesterday as I was trying to catch my Impish Snorlax. =P

[B~T]

FURRET!
BLISSEY!

Type:NORMAL
Ability: Natural Cure - Pokemon with this ability have any status healed when they switch out.
           Serene Grace: Moves' secondary effects are doubled.
Tier: OU
Stats:

HP	255
Atck	10
Def	10
Sp. Atck	75
Sp. Def	135
Speed	55

Author's Opinion: This is one of OU's best Special Walls, especially since its is paired with a reliable Recovery Move. w00t. Just beware of Physical attacks, which can severely dent any Blissey.
Recommended Movesets:

Nature: Bold
Item: Leftovers
EVs:252 Defense/80 Sp. Attack/176 Sp. Defense
~ Wish
~ Protect
~ Thunderbolt/Flamethrower/Ice Beam
~ Toxic

Wish+Protect=Awesome combo. Protect helps it shield it from any attack, particularly Physical ones, as well as Explosion. You have three attacking options, which hit different Pokemon.

Toxic can rack up residual damage. Note that Flamethrower covers basically any Pokemon not named Heatran that resists Toxic.
Nature: Bold
Item: Leftovers
EVs:252 Defense/40 Sp. Attack/216 Sp. Defense
~ Aromatherapy
~ Softboiled
~ Thunderbolt/Flamethrower/Ice Beam/Seismic Toss
~ Thunder Wave/Toxic

The key thing about this set is that it has Aromatherapy support, which cancels out all of your party's status. Just be careful, as by the time you use Armoatherapy, a Physical attacked can come in and threaten it, especially Pursuit users. *stares at Tyranitar*

Ice Beam covers Salamence that tries to switch in. Thunder Wave cripples fast sweepers.

Why is it that I must depend on Smogon SO much for EVs... -____-
Countering Blissey:

Any Physical Attack, especially Fighting moves, can pretty much put a dent in Blissey severely. Nasty Plot Porygon can be a problem despite it being a Special Attacker.

Stallers that resists all its moves can just stall it out of PP.

Pain Split hurts especially.

Hm, odd-I noticed a few posts up he posted "******", yet the word's base, ****, is filtered, like it just was in this post.

OH by the way, some time within the next few days I will make a testimony to contradict Electivire's, in his words, suckiness.  In other words, I'm going to point out why Electivire is EPIC and deserves a spot on every competitive team.

In the Smog, it shows why Electivire is easily walled... =\
I never used an Electivire, but I can easily see why it isn't really that great. Not that it's bad, but...

I do not want to link it because it has cuss words, especially inappropriate ones.

[Ddude The Insane]

Electivire can be easily walled? 0_o

EDIT:oooh, 2222th post in this topic 

[Dudebot5000]

I just found it. Don't link to it.

I have to say, though, Electivire's complaints make sense. His moveset does annoy me sometimes.

However, I'ma gonna keep using him until I feel like switching him out for someone else. And spending the time EV training said change. =P
