Psych up works well if EVs are devoted into defense. I believe Dusknoir can hit 404 on both defenses. To me, Psych up is a great idea.

I just breed a Swinub for Mamoswine that is Adamant, has Snow Cloak, and has the IV spread of 19-26/31/31/20/31/19-26. I believe I should go for max HP, but Im tired of breeding and I cant decide if I should train this one or breed another. Oh and its male. The long tusks look boss on Mamoswine. And should I trust anyone on Serebii doing trade evos?

What do yo guys think the chance of the following two movies getting released in the UK?
Lucario and the Mystery of Mew
Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea
They are all I need to complete my collection and what with Dragon Ball and One Piece now being released in the UK a lot more Japanese anime could be on the way.

blissey needs to be holding the luck incense when bred to get a happiny egg. otherwise, you would get a chansey egg

A very good pokemon to have in any team is a porygon 2, a porygon 2 with eviolite means business, an ev trained porygon 2 with eviolite is a tank
if that porygon2 has trace then your opponent will think twice before fighting you with abilities like pressure, prankster, wonder guard or intimidate.
porygon2 can also learn trick room.
just thought i'd help if anyone doesn't know what to put in a team

I really love Raikou! It has been one of my favourite legendaries since, well, since I've really known about it. The legendary beasts are my favourite trio anyways, but Raikou just looks so cool!

[flamebeam]

I'll assume this is a game or something. my favorite trio would also be the Johto beasts, but my favorite is actually Suicune. yuck, how predicable!

I see no reason why you wouldn't be able to.

Seismitoad vs Carracosta? which is more recommended??.....or any other strong "new" water type Pokemon, who's not a "starter"

Between the two, I'd go with Carracosta. Seismitoad's stat distribution doesn't make it shine in any area, compared to Carracosta which has good Attack and monstrous Defense (though balanced with a horrendous Speed). Also, Carracosta can learn most important moves that Seismitoad can, in addition to Shell Smash (!!!).

I'd also recommend Jellicent for a good Water type.

Thanx

(now I'm curious about Shell Smash..)


Jellicent vs Carracosta? still Carracosta ,right?

[Mr.Ducky209]

Doesn't shiny Lucario and Hypno look like Lemongrab from adventure time?

If you're going for an in-game team, it really doesn't matter. If you're talking competitively though, Jellicent is better from a "this thing is useful" standpoint.

[Manna]

I am now a believer in EV/IV training.

Just tried it out for the first time, took so long but it's so worth it.

[LordLucario21]

The colors kind of look similar. But now that you mention it... can anybody draw a shiny lucario running around screaming "YOU MADE ME!!!!!"? But whoever asked about Jellicent and Carracosta, use Jellicent, its typing, bulk, and movepool make it amazing both in-game and competitively

[Fallen Icarus]

Jellicant is more useful in terms of stalling and utility
I myself find it annoying how Carracosta is ohko'ed by almost anything.. but that may be just me.

BTW, A pikachu with wings would be awesome.
It can learn fly (sometimes) and really, Wynaut?

But not as awesome as say, a flying Blastoise. I picture one as basically Green's ( I read the american version of the manga) Blastoise, except more awesome.

[WhiteGuyPower]
