I need one that includes a T-bolt (cause I have no electric type). I'd also like Shadow Ball to take advantage of his amazing attack. I need the other two moves, though. I was thinking maybe Curse and Toxic. Any thoughts?

Calm Mind raises SPecial Attack, Psychic is avaliable in the Game Corner. I like Shadowball, Toxic, Thunderbolt, and Mean Look.

Mean look is good, except for 1 thing......U CANT GET IT!!!!!!!I was thinking that banette could be a powerhouse, i mean, he's got good stata, and he can learn powerful moves

I've always liked the idea of this set:

Shadow Ball
Will'O'Wisp
Psychic
Thunderbolt

You could always drop your T-Bolt for Calm Mind if you find yourself in need of it.

BTW, doesn't Shadowball run off Atk, not Sp. Atk? So wouldn't using Calm Mind be almost pointless? I mean, if it if just for T-Bolt/Psychic, why not just not use T-Bolt/Psychic and open up slots for Curse or something.

T-bolt is needed becuz he has no pokemon for water types,and with 1 or 2 calm minds, this guy is almost unbeatable.Trust me,that's how my gardevoir was the only guy i used for 14 lv. 50 battle tower battles, and she didnt faint once

Calm mind also boosts his Spcl.Def, which is kind of low to begin with.

Thanx everybody! I know I'm going with Shadowball, Psychic and Thunderbolt so far, I'll decide on the other later.

Oh, Dragonmaster123: I DID answer your post. Twice.


Also, why is Will-O-Wisp so popular? I've asked before, but I've never understood.

will-o-wisp is an auto burn attack, which deals damage every turn and lowers the enemy's attack

i like this set

thunder
shadowball
will o wisp
taunt

willowisp and taunt work together to make the opponent attack while the burn will sharply lower physical attacks to banette making his only major weakness dark types
thunder for more power with the abscence of a stat boosting technique and shadowball for a same type bonus

hoo hah... i must be mr originality
