Anyone got any idea on the best way to catch a pokemon in the safari ... I've been trying for two days now to catch a houndoom I've tried throwing mud at it ... I got 3x mud at it ... it got super close to being caught then fled. I tried bait then mud - no avail .. 2 x bait nothing... Any help lol? Gah, never mind ... Just caught it. 1 mud throw . It's as if God just wants me to look silly lol.

Welcome to the site I've been playing pokemon right from the beginning too. Got a bust version of silver lying around somewhere, a bust yellow and Red in my draw that I think still works lol. I gotta say, I've been on this site a year ... used AR for most of Console playing lifetime and I STILL haven't got a clue how RAM works, so well done and best of luck . P.s it's nice to see a British person around here ... thought I was the only one

I guess my whole reasoning as to docking toxicroak was completely over looked then. Don't bring my name up when you are explaining your points to anyone - that would be rude. I know I am not the best at this whole competitive scene but I know enough to make a decision based on my past experience - as I stated on your thread. Don't try and make me out to be some sort of prized idiot. Sometimes I wonder if we are supposed to rate your team and propose alternatives, or merely look and bask at how great your team building skillllz are. You've got a nice team there. All the best - I give it a perfect 10...

God knows how many I've lost . Resorted to using Q tips now haha

Mexico - Incubus

I can't really think of anything for the other two atm but I might come back later

Chamberlain - Coheed and Cambria

Yeah. At the moment the sets are ok but the team isn't. There's little synergy at the moment... I have to go pretty soon so I dunno what I could recommend. But if we work from your Infernape, he's weak to water/ground/flying/psychic. So pokemon that would complement him well are Vaporeon/Gyarados/Umbreon/_levitater/darktype_. So lets say you went for Gyarados. Infernape would do all he could do until he came across someone who countered him - you anticipate the following move and switch to the next pokemon to take the move for him. SO infernape vs EQ - switch to Gyarados - Work with gyarados until an electric type comes out - then you switch to someone that is immune to electric. Ground types are good, but they share a common water weakness with infernape, so something like Jolteon/lanturn w/ volt absorb or Electivire w/ Motor thingy can instead come into the electric attack and make benefit of them. Though they share the same ground weakness as infernape - Gyarados is a flyer and can set up on a lot of EQ users. That would be how you'd play a hyper offensive team, switching between extra strengthy pokemon that can cover each others weakness. If you need more help I'll be back in about 5 hours.

Hey Roland I can't account for all trade evos but slowking/steelix are just fine. I can go through Gengar and Alakazam in about 5 hours though if you still need me to. EDIT: Mail evos work Trade Evos Work Trade w/ Item evos Work

Yes this was SS. I'm doing everything there is to possibly do in game, so if there's anything to find I should find it, but as it stands, everything so far is fine .

It looks much better. However you can't get more than 510 EVs and no more than 255 in any given stat (and no more than 252 is needed) so you should really put on the EV's I specified.

I've had a run throughish type thing on No$ and the difficulty has been upped... as I expected . However the only new pokemon I have found would be a glameow en route to mr pokemons house and some version specifics that have been added to the game. I'm probably just not looking hard enough, I'll have another look around and edit this post afterwards. Not got as far as morty yet so I can't say about the glitch that's happening. I'll tell you when I get there . EDIT: Ok slapped on the walk through walls cheat - I don't battle suicune at all, morty IS in his gym and his pokemon are of a higher level.

You have a 33% of using Eruption when you are at full health similarly you have got to outrun the person you are using it against .. Again even slimmer chances. Wraiths heracross has a boosting move plus a stab attack that doesn't rely on extraneous variables such as HP. Your typhlosion is nothing like wraith's heracross .. all it does that is similar is uses the resttalk strategy. If it is working for you then great, however I highly recommend you change the set ... or even get a different pokemon. I love Typhlosion too .. but the problem is, it is lacking in a lot. It has the stats but not the moves. If you wanted something like wraiths heracross you could run a set that consisted of howl/flare blitz/rest/sleep talk. 252 HP/52 Atk. 100 def/ 100 spdef w/ leftovers and an adamant nature nature.

I hope that helps.

I agree with Randomspot said, it may be very helpful if you wanna battle competitively if you have good natures ... as he said they are not that had to come by . Comments etc in red

DO NOT do this ^^^^. You have a perfectly fine lead for one and two this gyarados won't do anything much considering it has pitiful Special attack - and dragon dance doesn't boost that special attack either.

Dusknoir would be good as a gengar replacement seeing as gengar and Raikou share the same coverage. Though I recommend that you go for a will o wisp vairant to stop opposing physical killers from being such killers. Weavile will also make for a good revenge killer if you put ice shard over ice punch... though there isn't too much that outspeeds him anyhow. Errr, ice shard depends on if you are too worried about DDancers and scarfers. But would definately make for a better replacement in terms of power + speed.

Congrats How's the team looking?

Would anybody be as kind as to make me a sig . I'm looking for a sig similar to the one that I have at the moment only with Lanturn. I tried doing it myself but it just wouldn't work. Basically I want the back ground to under the sea, coral, nice blues; the works - with a shiny lanturn. With maybe one of its fins coming out of the actual back ground (like the hoot hoot in my current sig). Put my name where ever you can fit it, and on the side of Lanturn I'd like the name 'Annata' to be really finely put on there. Alsmost like it's scratched in . If that's too much forget about that part. I just want a sig that I can revolve between my two fave pokes .

Part bias part reason. The reasoning being that something like Nidoking can provide you the same toxic absorbing and can provide an instant threat with it's larger movepool. Sure given the chance to set up toxicroak is going to outclass nido and be an absolute beast, but in terms of coming in and eliminating something nido is better in my opinion, seeing as it is attacking from both sides of the spectrum with unpredictable moves. Also it'll take a hit better (nidoking taking 10% damage less from most attacks). But I've not tried out the team so I'm just thinking theoretically. And there's no sun damage of course.

Ok UU is my favourite so I'll try and do your team a bit of justice with this rate . Ok I won't .. but I'm already thinking it Ok so what you have is nice looking anti lead that will take out an ambipom - possibly. Ambi will taunt a ghost before it uses fake out ... unless the user is real stupid. So you will get one hit in which won't kill it due it's own sash and inadaquate special attack. After that it will U-turn away (breaking your sash) and send in an adaquate counter. Though the counter will be something that resists ice - you seem to have it all covered. However, Froslass does have a lacklustre non boosted special attack - it's base 80 I believe. and as such you won't be hurting many things - such as registeel who can happily shrug off the first ice beam - with stand HP fire (20.9% damage at best) - lay rocks - and then get the kill with Iron head, and then depending on the variant either curse up in the face of the next pokemon, or rest off the damage. In which situation you've done nothing, you've not stopped the lead, set spikes, ticked anyone or put anyone to sleep. This is rather situational but it can happen (one of teams revolves around the U Turn Ambipom for Swellow leads.) So my suggestion would be give it a modest nature and enough speed to outspeed common walls and all ground types, then throw the excess into HP ... similarly you could run trickspecs ... that will screw an ambipom/uxie/_SR leads_/_Status inducing leads_, and do heavy damage to everything else. Though if you're worried about accidently putting specs on something that could benefit from it there is trickscarf that you could use which is the safer option (most of the time). Ok Every team needs a physical wall especially in UU. This is more of a team playing wall - what with it's double screening. And it looks good enough. I just question whether weezing might do the job better or not as it can eliminate a physical threat almost straight away. Gone is the agility blaziken with haze, Choice scarf hotmon lee and medicham aren't going to like being burnt and moltres won't like the thunder bolt on the switch. Though if you don't like the idea of losing screens then I guess your wall may work better ... it just depends on whether you want an immediate counter or something to wall. Similarly weezing forms good synergy with lanturn. It can't take too many special grass hits that are aimed at lanturn though - so that may be where uxie gets the upper hand. Ok so it would seem that this would be the focus of your team - get him to sweep . So I'm not going to mess with it. If it's working for you great... I can't think of anything better in any case . Maybe give it focus punch ... the sub is going to be a tough cookie to break, and the opponent should be attacking first most of the time so you should find plenty of opportunities to get the focus punch in. Fine. I ran this set too but with substitute ... that was unstopable late game . I've tried to run this set before and it just wouldn't work for me . I hope it's giving you more use than it did me. I feel this pokes spot could be used by someone else though. MAybe a mixed Nidoking or Altaria. Or maybe even some sort of spinner. Torkoal could fit the bill and be used as water absorb bait for poliwrath. Thiough torkoal is weak to rock so .. more trouble than it's worth most the time. Impressive score . My teams like 2 - 25 . Anyway you got a lot of resistances, hard hitters and some good synergy here and there so I'd give it 7.5 out of 10. I think you might be weak to stall at times ... though who isn't . And also not conviced about Toxicroak on the last spot so you might wanna put a wall breaker in its place. But if it works for you then so be it .

There is ... and so is there an egeikan arceus - have a look in the PKM forum they're in there somewhere... and to get you started here is one. http://projectpokemon.org/forums/showthread.php?8595-Spiky-Ear-Pichu
