I haven't gone and got my Dittos yet. :laugh: I only got bad ones except for Timid. I'll look to see if I have any Synchronize Impish guy/gal.

Edit: I need to borrow a Adamant Ditto from you guy cuz I decided not to use Inferape and went with Heracross instead.

I do my ditto searching in Emerald, Desert Underpass ftw. Another good thing about Emerald is that there's this guy that can tell you how good your pokemon is based on its IVs and which stat has the highest IV

I havent even touched the Frontier in Platinum yet so I wouldnt know. In 4th Gen there's something on the summary page of your pokemon that tells you the highest IV anyway

who can show up to Joker's today? I actually don't have anything going on for the rest of the night... for the first time ever? Blank / kudou can one of you be there? I think I am going to come for sure tonight. There are no maybes that I have been attaching lately.

Get back to me as soon as possible so I can make the arrangements.

Hello, fellows. Been a while, lol.

A group from Grinnell are coming down again for this monthly since our school year ends on Friday, the day before, haha.
We'll probably bring 5-6, including myself, and participate mostly in brawl, some of us in melee.
Hope you don't mind. (:
We want to see if we've gotten any better, especially since we got owned last time. ;P

This is my opinion, but my opinion is far from great

Metagross is a good lead I guess, it takes out the usual ones like Aerodactyl, Azelf and Weavile

Specs Jolteon's interesting

Gyarados - I never liked sleep talkers but whatever floats your boat

Heatran- is a bitch, good for you

Lucario/Scizor - I'd personally say Scizor since if you use Lucario, there'll be 4 pokemon that get shit on by earthquake, Heatran dies the easiest. Scizor also has a redunkulously strong priority move which I dont think anyone esle on the team has, but Im a hypocrite since I dont use priority moves too much. Scizor's also the most used pokemon in the game so there's that.

6th guy - I'd highly suggest something that cant get hit by ground type moves. You dont really need a spinner since only Gyarados gets decimated by stealth rock. Another guy to take electric moves would be nice incase Jolteon dies. It'd be nice to make room for a fighting type that isnt Lucario for the sake of killing tyranitar and blissey, maybe a machamp cuz that guy's rigged.


Wait a second, you're Blue/Green. Throw a Blastoise in there
EDIT: Like Tyser said, we're probably screwed for this tournament

Just got back from the Strip Club! For Heatran, Make sure you save before fighting him and then battle, catch it, and take a look to see if it has the right Nature, then IV check it on Serebii.

Tyser I hope that is a mind game again and you actually will be there.

Twink that's awesome that you are coming again with your crew. I was actually thinking the other day about how to get in contact with your group to make another appearance.

Yep, english patch last updated February and still being worked on. It has a few grammar errors but most of it makes sense and the game is very much playable.

Glad to hear that Grinnell is coming again. GGs at Joker's, *Yawn* sleepy...

Metagross is Metagross there is nothing to discuss.

Jolteon - I am guessing you are going for hidden power Ice/Grass? Its cool but its gonna be a ***** to get it. If you go for grass then your team will lack any ice moves which are a key to dealing with slamance, garchomp and its just a good type of attack to have around. Maybe this is what your sixth pokemon should be.

Heatran - He can get Dragon Pulse and Hidden Power Ice so this moves can deal with the threats mentioned above.

Gyarados - Seems good, when I first saw your team I thought you had too many sweepers or attackers but then realize your Gyarados isn't like mine built to sweep. Also noticed your jolteon is a scout so I can see how Gyarados could come in on expecting counters for jolteon.

Lucario or Scizor - I am not familiar with either.

I was gonna recommend Togekiss as a special tank or as a baton passer to give Jolteon/Heatran nasty plot but then that would weaken your team to stealth rock in which case you would need a rapid spinner in your team.

However there is always Umbreon who can also baton pass Wish or after a Mean Look/Taunt/ Yawn/ Toxic.

You don't have to worry about Garchomp though. He's an Uber, but still need someone with an Ice move to take down Dragons.

I honestly wouldnt batonpass anything to a choice user. It might make them powerful beyond belief, but if a good enough counter comes in, you're gonna be forced to switch and lose your boost completely

You can give Gyarados Ice fang for those dragons, or give Lucario Ice punch if you choose him, but he gets outspeeded by salamence.

A Stealth rock user could be good. It takes care of guys like Zapdos, Salamence, Gyarados, and Charizard lol.

alright good stuff for the information. i really appreate it but here is a little bit more indepth on move sets and what i think on my choices.

Metagross
- Meteor Mash
- Stealth Rock
- Earthquake
- Explosion

i read somewhere that metagross is just a good lead in plat. so i decided to just roll with him, not much there

Jolteon
- Thunderbolt
- Shadow Ball
- Hidden Power (grass)
- Baton Pass

with jolteon, Hidden power grass is to take out swampert and can wreck a little damage to Tyranitars from what i've read. Baton Pass so i can get out intimidate switches with Gyarados for early/mid game

Gyarados
- Dragon Dance
- Rest
- Waterfall
- SleepTalk

gyarados is there to wreck up a lot of damage but not there to sweep cause like bone said, i would have too many attackers or sweepers. also he can be a status absorber with the rest+sleeptalk combo

Heatran
- Fire Blast
- Earth Power
- Hidden Power (ice)
- Explosion

revenge killer and hidden power (ice) to take out dragons like salamence and dragonite. Explodes at the late game when the job is done

Scizor - leaning towards scizor now indead of lucario
- Bullet Punch
- Super Power
- Swords Dance
- Quick Attack

just there to be my mid/late game sweeper, not much really there as well.

well this is what im shooting for but im still pretty unsure on how this team will work out, still undecided on whom the 6th person would be ;_;
