Castform?

[FrozenHobo]

just as a novelty pokemon. i've always liked the transforming with the weather.... but i don't have any idea what i would want to put on him.... ideas?


(no, he's not for competitive play)

 

[WouW]

Solar Beam / Weather Ball / Thunder / Ice Beam

Use this in Ubers, with Groudon/Kyogre. Solarbeam/Thunder and Weather Ball are obvious, Thunder/Solar Beam for when Kyogre/Groudon comes in and Ice Beam vs Rayquaza. Or replace Solar Beam / Thunder with Rain Dance / Sunny Day or use Hail and Blizzard.

 

[FrozenHobo]

hmm.... ok, thanks. that one works well for doubles....


i liked this form of the above set:
Weather Ball
Rain Dance
Thunder
Ice Beam


edit:

nevermind, i decided to go with this set. i equipped him with mystic water so now his weather ball can do a **** load of damage once he changes form. he has some EVs in defense, spcl def, speed (not sure about how many n what yet).

Castform in Ubers is hilarious. Many other Pokemon can use a moveset like that, minus Weather Ball, with more power and speed. Even a Super Effective Thunder/Solarbeam to Kyogre/Groudon would barely faze them if it came from something as tiny as Castform. If those moves were at least STABed, then it might dent the titans to a much more noticable extent. Also, note that you're slower than both.

oh i know. i just like castfrom and decided to give him a good moveset for ****s and giggles. weather ball actually gets pretty powerful once i use rainy day (50% form rainy day, 50% from STAB, and 20% from mystic water)

edit: he's at lvl 33 right now.... i;m actually having fun using him (need more PP for rainy day though v_v)

lol castform will make uber players rofl. i would laugh too. i have never seen a castform ever in competitive play. And the weather ball will have a power of 270 i think. that is stronger than a nonstabbed super effective solar beam. wow. imagine if that thing was super effective. i am scared of castforms now. 0.o

 

[FrozenHobo]

lol aside from the 1 turn set up, he's actually alright. he'd get killed competitively in no time at all, but for an in-game team member he's alright.


so 270? man, that is pretty kick ***.... i may catch another one and make it fire based.

 

[sonic 12111]

Ya it is. Sadly due to his bad defences he would get 1hko even by an earthquake from a gliscor. 8(

 

[FrozenHobo]

yeah... if he was part flying it would be a lot better

 

[sonic 12111]

LOL ya. The only thing I don't get is the lack of a rock form for Sandstorm

 

[FrozenHobo]

i don't know either, but that would make it AWESOME for a sandstorm team.

anyways, here's my moveset for the fire form:
Castform @ Fire Plate/ Charcoal
Sunny Day
Weather Ball
Solar Beam
Thunderbolt
