My Monotype Challenge Team

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

EDIT: Will a mod move this to Advance Team Rating, I misplaced. Ktnxbai

It is proly for my next Monotype Challenge...

Don't bother me on EV's, since I don't do EV training for Ingame...


Swellow@???
- Nature: Jolly (+Spd, - Sp.atk)
- Trait: Guts

~ Facade
~ Aerial Ace
~ Doubleteam / HP:Ground
~ Quick Attack / HP:Ground

Just a bit of a Sweeper, I don't want Choiceband because I don't like it for Ingame and you can only receive it after the 1337 4 and the Challenge ends after the defeat of Steven.


_~°***°~_

Masquerain@???
- Nature: Mild (+Sp.atk, -Def)
- Trait: Intimidate

~ Waterpulse / Hydropump
~ Raindance
~ Icebeam
~ Silverwind / Stunspore / Haze

A little bit of help with the last move please...Or you can mention a new, fun, intresting set.


_~°***°~_

Altaria@???
- Nature: Adamant
- Trait: Natural Cure

~ Dragon's Dance
~ Earthquake
~ Aerial Ace
~ HP: Fighting / Rock | Return | Steelwing | Iron Tail | Something

'The Sweeper Set' Again, a little help with the last move...

!!OR!!

Altaria@???
- Nature: Modest (+Sp.atk, - Atk) / Mild (+Sp.atk, - Def)
- Trait: Natural Cure

~ Sunny Day
~ Fireblast / Flamethrower
~ Solarbeam
~ Dragonclaw / Icebeam

'The Special Sweeper Set' I proly use this because Flying lacks Sp.atk power. Most Flying pokemon.

!!OR!!

Altaria@Leftovers
- Nature: Relaxed (+Def, - Spd)
- Trait: Natural Cure

~ Haze
~ Safeguard
~ Aerial Ace
~ Dragonbreath / Claw | Icebeam | Flamethrower

'The Utility Set' For Hazing and Pseudo Passing. Might not be so good, but Altaria has good defenses.


_~°***°~_

Crobat@ Cheri Berry
- Nature: Jolly (+Spd, - Sp.atk)
- Trait: Inner Focus

~ Wing attack / Air cutter
~ Shadowball / Rest
~ Confuse Ray
~ Haze / Double Team

Hmm...This is kinda tricky. Because AA is proly going to Altaria or another Pokemon I have to make a choice between Wingattack(60dmg, no effects) or Air Cutter (55 dmg, High CH ratio). What would I choose? It only has 5 Damage Points diffrence. Then the rest of the set is quit hard. I don't want Mean Look+Toxic since I'm tired of that. I could try the Flying Dutchman (Named after Autumn, the inventer of this set, who is ofcourse Dutch) set: @Choiceband: Sludgebomb_Shadowball_Aerial Ace(hmm)_HP:Ground/Steelwing/Something# Jolly # 252Spd, 252Atk, 6 HP. But I don't really like CB as stated before. What will I do? Help.


_~°***°~_

Skarmory@???
- Nature: Adamant (+Atk, -Sp.att) / Naughty (+Atk, -Sp.def)
- Trait: Keen Eye

~ Drill Peck
~ Steel Wing
~ Taunt / Roar
~ Toxic

I don't really know about this set. It doesn't really pwn like NB Skarm. But this is not NB =p You can suggest some moves if you like, but I'm keeping my 2 atk moves. I don't really like 1 attack move for Ingame.


_~°***°~_

Xatu@???
- Nature: Quiet (+Sp.atk, - Def) / Rash (+Sp.att, - Sp.def) / Timid (+Spd, -Atk)
- Trait: Synchronize

~ Calm mind / Confuse Ray
~ Drill Peck
~ Psychic
~ Wish

Mixed Pokemon, normally not that good but I like him. Confuse Ray could be an option aswell.

Rate away, you CAN replace Xatu.

[aragornbird]

I've used a Xatu before while training a team of all bird Pokemon. This set works pretty well, and of course, it's in game, so no REAL competition.

Xatu
Modest (+Sp. att, - att)
Psychic
Giga Drain/HP Special
Calm Mind
Confuse Ray

[WaterTrainer]

Why dont u breed to get Aerial Ace onto other Flying types?

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Ah yes finally a rating( a bit of rating). I have a naughty Natu with Drill peck and Synchronize so I'm keeping him. Also a Lonely Skarm with Keen eye.

Blargh I'm sick and tired of breeding so no more Natures.

Yeah I know Xatu sucks, but for Ingame it's all about fun!


Why dont u breed to get Aerial Ace onto other Flying types?

I thought you were only allowed one set of TMs and therefore no breeding aswell...

Oh btw: Is is ok to give a pokemon that is going to be linked to my game, TM Steel Wing? I know I'll have 2 Steel Wings then, but I'm just not going to use the one I'm receiving from Steven. It is because otherwise my Taillow won't be able to beat Roxanne...

I'm also a little suprised that nobody else has rated this team, are you not good enough? To lazy? Or is the team perfect?(witch I doubt, since I found a mistake myself)

A pokemon that learns Hydro Pump early in the game for breeding with Surskit? Any help?

The Xatu set looks nice, but I really want Drill Peck

Maybe
~Confuse Ray
~Calm mind
~Psychic
~Drill peck

No? No healing then...

[Gagome]

....
A pokemon that learns Hydro Pump early in the game for breeding with Surskit? Any help?
...Here are a few in R/S available Pokemon from which Surskit can learn Hydro Pump:

Pokemon / level at which it learns Hydro Pump

Psyduck 50
Pelipper 61
Lombre 49
Mudkip 42
Horsea 43
Marill 45

Unfortunately no Pokemon learns it at a low level.
Maybe Pelipper, Lombre, Marill or Mudkip are your best candidates.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

What is the highest level you can catch a Marill or Lombre?

*is to lazy to google it*

[Gagome]

What is the highest level you can catch a Marill or Lombre?

Lombre: lvl 18 on route 114 (Sapphire only)
Marill: lvl 27 in grass on route 120
lvl 35 (usually lvl 20-30) surfing in Petalburg City or routes: 102, 111, 114, 117 and 120.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

*sigh*

Marill it is then. Thanks for all of your help and if anyone insists on rating this, it would be welcome.

[WaterTrainer]

I think breeding is allowed, because technically you're not using the TMs itself.

I can help with Masquerain:
Water Pulse
Ice Beam
Stun Spore/Toxic/Haze/Agility/Mist
Whirlwind(but you would'nt want to train that high, would u?)/Silver Wind

Rain Dance would be BAD. Don't use Rain Dance on a Flying team, it'll trigger Thunder's power. But you would'nt care a bit, would u?

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Thanks, and not so many pokemon use Thunder in ingame, so no I wouldn't care one bit..

Thanks anyway :):
