Ginger_Warrior Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I know nothing about Smogon's metagame but aside from the lack of ground immunity, surely Jolteon is closest to Zapdos for sweeping. Pseudo-BoltBeam combo via HP Ice, with Shadow Ball and Volt Absorb to absorb T-Wave. He makes a good snack for Dugtrio though. | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demoli Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Seeing as you already have 'Bro for thephyisical side, I suggest changin wobbu EV spread to 252 HP, 252 SpD and Sassy nature (To ensure some crucial encores). Wobbu might have big HP, but it's no blissey and it's defences are also mediocre, so those HP EVs are needed. For Mienshao to KO gliscors with HP ice, it needs 96 SpA EV's with neutral nature btw. If you are using Zapdos offensivly, you might aswell be using thundurus. But if you are keen on using Good old 'Dos, you should ditch the lightning rod set and go with the standart offensive pressure one, because it has access to one crucial move you need on your team: Heat Wave. T-Bolt, Heat Wave, HP Ice and Sub/Volt Switch is a great set, specially if you use choice scarf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaaps1 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Because wobbufetts massive HP stat doesn't need to be boosted. Wobbuffet is also the only special wall my team has at the moment. I used smogons wobbufett set and instead of having speed evs I put them in defence instead. It's not a matter of whether the HP is high enough, it's about maximizing the effectiveness that Wobbuffet will have. To be honest, I would still go with a 252hp spread, and if you wanted a special wall, just give it 252hp/252sp def. It's really counterproductive to give Wobbuffet defensive EVs when the only way it can harm its opponents if by taking damage itself, especially when it has no recovery. Of course, again that's assuming your team isn't based around stall. ~It's Super Effective!

Demoli Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 For a scarf zapdos try a 252/252 Spa/Spe, Timid if you are using Volt Switch or a +Spe/ -Def/SpD if you are using u-turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furah Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 You need to go into Entralink into someone's Black City and talk to people to get them to come to White Forest in your game.

Miner_Guy Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Why isnt there anyone in my forest? It took me like 70 hours to get to it, so surely there should be some grass in it? And is there any other way i can get people in it without having to use the entralink? Like isnt there a point system, could that get me grass?

Alg Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 It's measured in days. If you take more than 10 days to finish the game, the forest empties out. I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miner_Guy Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Oh, i thought it was the longer the time. Are the days like actually the amount of days or measured by the amount of playtime i.e 24hrs=1day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the days like actually the amount of days or measured by the amount of playtime i.e 24hrs=1day?Nop, actual days. Say, you start the game on the 10th, if you get to the forest on the 17th, you'll still have people in it, but if you get there on the 24th, it'll be empty.

Ginger_Warrior Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 So I used Ferrothorn in the Super Subway for the first time today and... yeah, I see what all the fuss is about. With Magnezone and Starmie in 2nd/3rd there's a big weakness to Fighting and Ground. Also, both are running HP Fire, so Magnezone's Flash Cannon doesn't really offer anything Starmie can't already do quite comfortably. I'm thinking Magnezone for Reuniclus or Sigilyph| just to add more bulk and cover weaknesses to EQ and Focus Blast.

proton Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I'm currently getting a Latias for my team, What would be a good spread on the EVs for her? I was thinking of maxing out speed and go for def, S. def EVs to make it worthwhile. But not really sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miner_Guy Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 I didnt realise that you were suppose to use vitamins first on my larvesta before you ev-train, so how can i reset the evs? I have used 152 evs on spa and speed and 4 on hp how can i do it so i can use vitamins on spa and speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alg Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Use the vitamins first. They can only bring the stat to a maximum of 100 EVs, but you can still train the stat yourself after. I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miner_Guy Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Hmm, ill just train the other 100 evs instead of using vitamins, although i tihnk i trained 8 hp by accident because of a bad calculation, so ill get that to ten or twenty and use a berry EDIT: If you use berries so say you have 6 speed evs left, what happens if you use another berry? Does it go to zero or are you not allowed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginger_Warrior Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I'm not sure but I think where it normally says "Wobbufet's HP stat was lowered," it would now say something like "Wobbufet's HP stat won't fall any lower," if it had 0 HP EVs before the berry was fed. If you have 6 EVs, it would go like: 6 EVs - 10 EVs = 0 EVs, NOT -4 EVs. But you'd still be able to do it. | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
