Parasect only has 95 base Attack (Compared to Gallade's 125), but it's well worth it for Damp, Spore, and False Swipe all on one Pokemon. If you insist on using sleep, or encounter something that cannot be paralyzed (Electric-type or Limber ability), I would still recommend Parasect over Gallade:ĭamp ability prevents opponent's use of Self Destruct or Explosion, so you can catch that shiny Graveler without it killing itself. More useful ability (Super Luck) that gives you critical hits on False Swipe, works well in conjunction with Swords Dance and the Razor Claw 130 vs 125, so it's not a huge boost though. Slightly higher Attack stat when not Mega-Evolved (I can't bother watching the animation every battle). Now, since both Absol and Gallade learn Thunder Wave, it's mostly up to personal preference. Paralysis has the additional effect of making the opponent slower. Thunder Wave means you only have to use the move once (even over multiple battles, such as for Latias/Latios). A measly 55% accuracy (60.1% with the Wide Lens, at the cost of your item slot), and the opponent will wake up after 1-3 turns anyway. It doesn't get Thief, but is infinitely cooler.ĮDIT: Changed Absol to Aegislash, changed Disable to Thunder Wave on Gardevoir, added Sharpedo for OR/AS. Moveset: Fly - Acrobatics - Thief - Roost Notes: Covet has STAB, Thief works on Ghost-types. Moveset: Covet/Thief - Super Fang - Strength - Cut *Notes: Fly in OR/AS is obsolete due to the Eon Flute. Moveset: Surf - Waterfall - Dive - Rock Smash Notes: Rock Smash isn't really needed in X/Y. Damp prevents that shiny Geodude from Self-Destructing, Spore is for Pokemon who cannot be paralyzed (Electric-type or Limber Ability). Moveset: Swords Dance - False Swipe - Spore - Synthesis Typing makes you (and therefore the opponent) immune to many recoil moves. Lagging Tail makes is so you take hits in Shield form (since King's Shield has priority and most attacking moves will go after the opponent). Notes: After inflicting Paralysis with Gardevoir, you can switch to Aegislash. Moveset: Swords Dance - False Swipe - Block - King's Shield Do not Mega Evolve, as Magic Bounce can kill the opponent you're trying to catch. Notes: Paralysis is the best status, as it neither damages the opponent like poison/burn nor wears off like sleep. Moveset: Swords Dance - False Swipe - Thunder Wave - Mean Look Tricked Ring Target makes enemy Ghost-types vulnerable to False Swipe.* Notes: Skill Swapped Telepathy prevents enemies in hordes from being killed by allies. Moveset: Mean Look - Skill Swap - Trick - Disable Thunder Wave Oh, and I have a team of Pickup pokemon that I forgot to transfer from X/Y, for farming Leftovers and other miscellaneous items. I'm currently working on a squad of Synchronize Ralts and a catcher Gallade. Finally, I have five breeding Dittos one 6IV, one 6IV for Trick Room, and three for Hidden Powers Ice, Fire, and Rock. I have my trusty Flame Body + Fly Talonflame, for quick breeding. I have three HM slaves, between whom I have just about every field move I could ever need: Golduck for Surf, Dive, Waterfall, and Dig Linoone with Cut, Secret Power, Rock Smash, and Strength and Tropius, which carries Fly, Sweet Scent, and Flash. My "pokemon toolkit" in ORAS is a bit like this: Which are your favorite pokemon to use for all of your non-battling needs?Īlso, general utility mons appreciation thread. I have quite a few pokemon I don't use for anything but utility- HM slaves, breeding dittos, farming certain items, catching other pokemon, etc. Submission Filter Image Only Image Only No Image No Image Media Only Media Only No Media No Media Discussion Only Discussion Only No Discussion No Discussion Info Only Info Only No Info No Info Art Only Art Only No Art No Art Crafts Only Crafts Only No Crafts No Crafts Memes Only Memes Only No Memes No Memes Venting Venting No Venting No Venting No Art & No Venting No Art & No Venting No Memes & No Venting No Memes & No Venting Clear Filter Clear Filter Event Calendar
