Did anyone use Hypno?

[123LTJ]

Did anyone use Hypno for your Psychic type over Alakazam? I've never seen one used by any of my friends. I was just wondering.

[Lady Kinogassa]

My friend Danny used a Hypno over Alakazam all of the time, He was sick of seeing *everybody* use 'Zam

[RaZoR LeAf]

I use a Hypno on my team all the time. I find him less fragile than Alakazam. And cooler looking.

[Myth]

My latest team has one! Used as a blardy tankage dood. But if u ask me, and alakazam is definitely for offense

What's a good Hypno moveset?

[bme]

Seismic Toss~Thunderwave~Reflect~Rest
Psychic~Meditate~Thunder Wave~Headbutt/Body Slam

1 and a half years ago I told everyone here that hypno was awesome because I managed to kill a moltres with one, lol.

I like reflect, rest, substitute, and psychic, with the possiblity of twave over substitute. I used hypno on a standard team so i had other thunderwavers.

Twave, meditate, headbutt, and psychic also works.

So nobody uses Hypnosis/Dream Eater on him? It would kinda fit his motif.

[bme]

Like a certain someone said, Hypnosis does what it's suppose to. It fails. :P~ It won't work well because anything put to sleep by Hynpo will just be switched out. =/ IF it wasn't for Hypnosis's bad acc., you could do that, then someone thinking you're a newbie, they switch. You then do a Thunderwave. >=D

[edit] i'm lame enough to edit, whee. Actually Hypnosis isn't that bad. But Dream Eater...nah. ^^;

[MetalScyther]

Yep. Hypnosis, thunderwave, counter, and psychic is also a very usable moveset, because its getting used for everything. Hypnosis disables a pokemon to kill later, and thunderwave helps your whole team. I found a tauros switched into my hypno once, and countered when he bodyslammed, and then the tauros became sad.

[The Muffin Man]

Yes. and we all know how useful it is to paralyze AND sleep a pokemon. And Counter! Pure genius. My biggest problem sure isn't Chansey when I'm using a Hypno without Body Slam.[/sarcasm]

[MetalScyther]

Are you ****ing kidding me? Jesus christ. I thought you had enough common sense to know why we use sleeping and parylises moves on pokemon, pmm2.

And if you think that everything sucks just because its countered by chansey, then your even a bigger idiot then I thought.

[Edit] I just reread my post and I realized that your too stupid to comprehend my sleeping and paylises comment, so I'll explain it, since even after many years this still seems to be a new concept for you.

Hypno uses hypnosis. If it fails once, no biggy, because it has great staying power. After the poke is slept, they either die to psychic, or they are forced to switch. If they switch, you thunderwave. Counter is there for fun and could possibly screw over a tauros or something. If you weren't looking for counter then s-toss works fine also, along with bodyslam.

[Cheesey]

I like Hypno, although I don't like his huge nose very much XD

Mine has.... Psychic, Seismic Toss, something, and something else, lol

[SWAMPERT1]

Heh, yeah that set alone gets screwed by Gengar.:no: But we love Hypno still.

Prodigy - Oh ty. I forgot to quote that.:D

[Mr.E]

Seismic Toss is screwed by nothing, hence the usefulness.

Despite being a Fighting type attack, it is effective against Ghost Pokémon.

[bme]

Oh duh. I'm thinking of G/S/C. hehe..:wave:

[Charidron]

I have never used Hypno but not Alakazam ether. But what do you meen with "Did anyone use" It IS people out there who still play R/B/Y:rolleyes:
