And the new unova champion is james Yeah I beat the elite 4 I might have used my pokemon from black and white but they are mine anyways Now any one know what I need to do now You can cross all the bridges now. Cross them, then keep following the routes until there's nothing new to be reached in doing so. You have now been almost everywhere. Go to whatever places you haven't already been to after that. Once you're done with that, go check Giant Chasm. I haven't, so I don't know if there's anything to do there, but I feel like there probably is. |

Allright, now my party is in serious need of more audino farming.
My current party (before taking on 5th gym)
Smanters - Lv.30 - Azumarill
Toast - Lv.27 - Sandslash (couldn't find a Trapinch still so I took the next best thing.)
Fridert - Lv.24 - Mincinno (w/Skill Link)
Saber - Lv.20 - Servine (yeah, #1 priority for audino training, right here. Suprisingly it holds its own just fine thanks to Leaf tornado's Accuracy dropping hax.)
Gunz - Lv.22 - Growlithe
Mukka - Lv.25 - Emolga
So yeah, Toast and Smanters are the only ones who are...decently leveled, at this point. but even Smanters needs training too, as I used Toast for ALL of the 4th gym (and won with EASE.)
If you're wondering why I'm using Emolga, it's because Emolga is actually pretty good, it's not just cute. like Mincinno, it packs a punch. (but Mincinno won't pack any real punch until i get Bullet Seed and Tail Slap.)
Also, Scrapped my Mareep.

My mecha Aggron will strike all of you down. ALTEISEN!
It can even surf.
I just crossed the badge check for Victory Road, and my team right now is:
(All level 50-53)
Aggron (Alteisen)
Electabuzz (Narukami) electivire trade plz
Absol (Acemu)
Sigilyph (Nephtis)
Zangoose (Baiken)
Banette (Orpheux)
Dang I love my Aggron. I'm not sure if it's IVs or whatever, but it has some really sweet stats and a great nature. Aggron is so cool. I also liked Excadrill but that thing is 'ubers' and I don't want to ezmode everything with him. Like, 120atk at level 40 or something... It was OHKOing everything with normal damage, and even almost OHKO'd with 'not very effective' a few times, and it has really high speed so almost always goes first unless underleveled. And heck, Clay's Excadrill took out all of my pokemon on its own like 3 times until I leveled up more and finally barely beat him.

^Excadrill is only "uber" because of his ability, Sand Rush. Double speed in sandstorm, it made it a staple for OU sandstorm teams. It also has decent defensive bulk and a great base 130 attack stat.
Aggron is a good pokemon. One of the highest defense stats in the game, a great attack stat, the ability to use a STAB 150 power move without any consequence...however.
For one, Aggron's type is horribly unforgiving. Having a x4 weakness to fighting and ground moves, which are extremely common, hurts. Second, Aggron's special defence is horrendous, and most neutral damage special attacks will kill Aggron in one hit.
Excadrill isn't a easy button unless you happen to also have a Hippowdon or Tyranitar.

True, it has some common weaknesses... But not as depressing as Golurk. Also, it's not much of a problem, because it has the awesome Sturdy skill. But is the sp.def really that bad? I either have really bad Pokemon or this Aggron has great IVs on sp.def... But I don't really know anything about that and only know the basics of EVs.
At level 54, it has 83 sp.def, which three of my other Pokemon have, and I don't find that terrible... My Sigilyph has about 100 and Electabuzz has 120. I thought these two was above average since most Pokemon I've had have grown with sp.def similar to my other four.

^Sigigylph probably has horrible EVs and IVs in sp.def, and Aggron has decent.
Also, Golurk's weaknesses aren't too bad at all.
Golurk has 5 weaknesses.
Aggron's defensive typing is okay, it has 2 double weaknesses and 1 normal, which is decent, if those two doubles weren't among the most common offensive types out there.
Wait. You're using Sturdy?
...*facepalm* so much for what I said about using a 150 power STAB move with no drawbacks.
On the topic of Golurk, it's an offensive pokemon anyway. It gets No Guard and dynamicpunch.

Post by Indigo on Oct 20, 2012 18:39:45 GMT
Yeah, Golurk did pack a punch, but it felt like 5 weaknesses was too much, compared to a lot of Pokemon, and it died too easily, not having many resistances either. It's a great glass cannon, but just unreliable at times. But when I think about it, I think it was more useful than my Banette...
Well, Aggron is just for an in-game team of course, so the EVs and IVs are all over the place, same with all my other Pokemon. I just found it above average compared to everything else I have now, it's won me a lot of battles single-handedly when I thought I lost, with its impressive damage, defense, and Sturdy.
Speaking of which, is Sturdy really a lot worse than Rock Head? He does get Heavy Slam as the heaviest Pokemon in the game, which can do 120 just like Double-Edge (you said 150, but I'm assuming you meant Double-Edge that does 120 and does recoil damage, unless there's another breeding/TM attack I'm not aware of), also with STAB. And apparently with Aggron, he'll almost always get 120 power off of Heavy Slam, because less than 10% of the Pokemon are heavy enough to take less than that.
I just like Sturdy because it always ensures you'll get at least a turn, which can be used for a good chunk of damage considering Aggron's attack. With lots of OHKOs and some criticals, and Aggron not having the best speed, I think it helps out a lot.

And apparently with Aggron, he'll almost always get 120 power off of Heavy Slam, because less than 10% of the Pokemon are heavy enough to take less than that. I'm guessing he was referring to Head Smash, which I believe is a 150 power Rock-type move with 50% recoil. Which results in 225 power with STAB. That's one way of looking at it. Sturdy certainly proved to be quite helpful for my Crustle for that very reason, but on the other hand Aggron's strongest attacks have recoil, so Rock Head is definitely the way to go there for maximum power. |

Post by Indigo on Oct 20, 2012 19:51:10 GMT
Oh, yeah, I'll assume he was referring to Head Smash. It's only learnable through breeding (after E4), so right now Sturdy is the best bet, and again, it's just the in-game team. My Aggron will awaken as a true ace later... Reincarnating as a baby.

Post by Stove on Oct 20, 2012 21:05:36 GMT
Wait, Head smash is only from breeding? *facepalm* then yeah, sturdy's fine for now.
well okay, about to challenge the 6th gym, and still haven't audino farmed yet.
my team:
Fridert - Lv.32 - Cincinno
Smanters - Lv.31 - Azumarill
Toast - Lv.30 - Sandslash
Saber - Lv.28 - Servine
Gunz - Lv.27 - Growlithe
Sigigylph - Lv.19 (my flight slave)
also, never found it before, but where to you go to relearn old moves from level?
yeah, I'm horribly underleveled. Also have a fire stone to evolve my growlithe, but I'm waiting till level 45 to get flare blitz and outrage first, then relearn extremespeed when I get to arcanine.
That's why I need to know it.
as for reincarnating as a baby, that's what's gonna happen to my crazy awesome Azumarill, who will come back as a adamant nature one with Aqua Jet.

The 6th gym is in Mistaltron city, right? There's a house near the Pokemon Center there where you can learn/delete moves.

Same with the Move Deleter, the move tutors for the starter-exclusive moves, and the guy who tells you what type Hidden Power is. |
