The Battle Subway Thread

[wearjo]

Pretty self explanatory, make sure you follow the forum rules and make sure you dont do anything to upset anyone

So, without further ado, LET'S GO!!!

Well today I beat the subway head for the single train and got 16 bp from a 21 win streak. Then I went to go grab myself a power anklet to help with speed EV training on my Crustle.

I keep losing to double. Beat single though

[PinkPalkia]

I'm just in it for the music. Even with proper EV training the Subway still seems harder than last gen. I could really use a Life Orb right now, but I can't transfer it due to a lack of another system.

[Porgon-XYZ]

Wow, I lost to a Porygon2 one time when using my Shedinja. It traced wonder guard and I was screwed. It ended up him using struggle to kill me. This is why I taught it Toxic.

I battled in the super double train today and was just about to defeat a Hydregion until it knocked me out.

What's weird is how Spiritomb and others can learn toxic... Looks like I'll be needing wonderguard.

I did so much grinding in the subway for the EV items. The worst thing was I couldn't do the Super lines so I was stuck getting minimal payout on the Single Line for days.

[rykerr1]

I've gotten through the Single and Double trains, haven't beaten super yet. I plan on going back to it once I get an EV'd team.

[DoubleJG3288]

I have both Super trains unlocked. The highest streak that I have had thus far is 17 or so on the Super Single subway.

I also completely agree with PinkPalkia about the Subway being harder than anything from 4th gen. There are simply too many 'mons to take into consideration when building a good team these days.

I can never get past the super single but i needed items like iron ball and wise glasses so i just beat single a bunch of times.

[matt0044]

I dealt with the same thing. I couldn't beat the Single Line because, well... I COULDN'T EV TRAIN MY TEAM!!! It was so frustrating and monotonous...but I did beat it and I appreciated the extra BP for beating the Subway Boss. Now on to the Super Single line!!!

[Bobmonkey07]

fair warning: after you beat the boss on super single, trainers start having legendaries.

one team i saw had cobalion, articuno, raikou.
another had regigigas, suicune, articuno.

it is worth beating him though. at that point you'll have earned 75 BP.

[AMagicalCone]

The multi battle is getting quite frustrating for me. My partner for the first two sets of 7 always has fantastic Pokemon (Darmanitan, Druddigon, etc) but as soon as I get to the third set I end up getting weaker ones, just now it was Beartic and Sawk, Sawk used earthquake twice and knocked out my Mienshao and Starmie, oh well, back to the drawing board...

[gustavo 14]

i recently beat my 21 win streak on the super single line. my record rests at 22 now. :/

on a more positive note, i have most of my battle items back. just need choice specs and perhaps i'll try to get the tm's, just to have them all.

[emirparkreiner7]

Using Archeops, Scrafty, Zoroark, and Ferrothorn, I got 34 wins in the Super Double Train. The 7th battle had at least three legendaries (Heatran, Landorus, and Virizion). I didn't even get to fight the fourth Pokemon. I assume it was legendary as well. Is this supposed to happen? I'm not even at the Subway Boss...

[Jokess]

N00b Q!

Battle Subway Online battling or in game?

[wearjo]

omg i almost got a winning streak of 21 but then i lost

[Ciccone]

I'm actually using my in-game team at the Battle Subway, which includes Samurott, Braviary and Haxorus. I usually use Legendaries like Raikou, Entei and Suicune for the battle facilities, but I've changed my style in Black/White. The only problem that I encounter when I use my in-game team is that they aren't EV trained. So most of my Battle Subway experience revolves on luck. I still enjoy battling there, but luck plays a bigger role than it should :c
