Imprison Smeargle?

[Darien Shields]

I had this idea a while ago, well, really it started a while ago, when I was fighting a friend, Gardevoir to Gardevoir, and I giot Imprison back. It was really useful to remove a lot of my enemies powerful attacks (Psychic, mainly), but I knew that unless I had an intimate knowledge of the foe that this would be hard to pull off again.

So I thought of the Imprison Smeargle. I basicly though, get it with 4 slots of sketch, use one for Imprison, and leave 3 blank. Then in a 2v2 battle (I expect that it'd get clobbered in 1-on-1) have it Sketch some more moves and then use Imprison.

Is it feesable? Has anyone else thought of it?

I suppose you could slap on some common moves instead, you know, Thunderbolt, Flamethrower or Ice Beam, or if you've got a particular weakness (like Will o Wisp or another status one) in the team that you don't want to come up, then you could lock out those moves.

Ideally though I suppose you'd need to know what your enemy has. If you did, would it be feesable then (if not any other time.)

Your idea doesn't work. You can't have the same move more than once on a Pokemon. This makes four times Sketch on Smeargle impossible.
You could use Imprison on Smeargle with three other moves where one could be Sketch and after you Sketched one of the opponent moves use Imprison.
The other two moves on Smeargle can be some common moves your opponent uses. Of course, if you know them.

Smeargle with Imprison is a good idea for any battle because he can Sketch almost any move. The only problem being Smeargle's low Stats is its downfall for staying around long in a battle. Things you might want to Imprison are Rest, Recover, Status Moves, and common attacks like Surf.
