I want to get a good Raikou and Suicune, but I'm uncertain about how the process works on Colosseum. Are their IVs set in stone after the first time I fight them, or can I go back and capture them with the Master Ball when they're in the Deep Colosseum?

Things like being threats more than phazing. Weezing special sets counter stat uppers like Gyarados better. Phazing's best for spikes / SR abuse or countering BP.

Must've been XD. Anyways this is cleric discussion.

Mew learns Hypnosis from level-up in D/P.

LocoUser: CM / Hypnosis / Sub / attack Mew anyone?

You still have to predict the status, double status is very dangerous. Nothing is immune to Hypnosis / Spore / Sleep Powder, and TWavers like Gallade (who has Hypnosis / WOW too) can beat down on those immune to it. You can say they can be absorbed but only Restalk is a complete solution, but...

If a Pokemon has Heal Bell or Aromatherapy it IS a damn cleric, that's the definition. Way to shit on my topic.

Clerics seem less common in D/P's less passive metagame. Most cleric-capable Pokes seem to prefer other moves instead now, but the need for clerics is greater than ever. OU-viable clerics are hard to come by. The short list is Lapras, Articuno, Dragonite, Miltank, Blissey, Celebi, and...

Generally Cresselia has three possible WAYS to spread its EVs. 1. A physical tank (focus on HP and Defense, some in SAtk, Bold) 2. A special tank (focus on HP and Special Defense, some in SAtk, Calm) 3. A special attacker (get up to 266 SAtk, focus on HP, rest in a defense, Modest) Those...

What's a good moveset for this Zapdos from LG? 6-7/30-31/28-29/30/18/30 (speed last) Calm nature, HP Fighting 67BP Thinking about a tankish set: 252 HP / 172 Def / 84 SAtk (Discharge / Thunder) / HP Fight / Ancietpower / Roost Or should I do a sweeper instead?

Why would you pump his low SDef instead of his nice Def? Just to lol at Raikou? Gyara works with a Def boost from 79 base thanks to Intimidate.

You need to carry Shadow Ball to do anything to Shedinja.

Yeah, I have an idea: reset your game and catch a +Spd Azelf instead. Azelf needs to be +Spd and Naughty is really bad since all it boosts is Explosion and it makes CB Weavile no matter what OHKO you with CB Pursuit.

You should, like, ALWAYS use an Impish Torterra outside of CB, which I don't condone in any way. Torterra's an excellent ground / rock resist, two very good resists to have, and I have been strongly considering using one on a Tyranitar team since TTar loves to have a ground resist to back him...

Not really, you're then rocking three Pokemon with water and grass weaknesses at the very least, and if you're trying to run TTar on that team you're adding a weakness to fighting / steel / ground for half your team. Not really good.

I have Diamond and Pearl, I'd rather just restart one of them and get another set of TMs and legendaries, rather than risk this stuff on the GTS.

X-Act, hence why as Surgo and I have said (Surgo said it first) that physical walling this generation is more about resistances than out-and-out defensive stats, although they help.

Walls will really be mostly about resistances this generation probably, given how much damage so much does to, well, so many Pokemon. I'm definitely a fan of Hippowdon and feel that he's a better wall than Donphan is any day, with the only perk to Donphan being you needn't build a team around...

Don't feel like checking to see if this is already straightened out, but I've made it to the Battle Tower and Earthquake is indeed purchasable for BP there.
