Taunt won't work too well without priority. It might be odd, but I used a regular Rotom with trick, volt switch, hidden power ice, and choice scarf to screw over any wall/support users I see, particularly Reuniclus, Dusclops (with an eviolite) and carbink/Klefki. I also crippled many Greninjas with it as well, and some of them didn't expect it. It's also capable of revenge killing weakened 4x ice weak dragons and can KO a MegaGengar with shadow ball.

I did win against one particular trick room team. I choice scarf locked a Rhyperior into using hammer arm (stole an assault vest in the process), so that minimized the damage and walled it against my Rotom and birds.

Kubi Wrote:I'd help, but I don't have any Rotom in a luxury ball. I guess you can try waiting until Tuesday, and I'll help catch you one if you haven't done it for yourself already.

I was also thinking about remaking my Rotom, but it feels like it's going to be a real pain making one whose hidden power is ice o-o.
It has 31 IVs into sp att, sp. def, and speed, but other stats are pretty random/low ish. I'm not sure on how the IVs determine hidden power's type.

If any of you have a Poke with Pokerus, please let me know and if you want anything in particular back for it.

Sephie Wrote:Apparently, if Farfetch'd holds a Stick and uses an increased crit move, it's now programmed to be 100% crit lol. I have to try this myself because that's hilarious. Getting Leaf Blade, Night Slash, and a STAB Slash (stab slash!) with Swords Dance is pretty cool for this poor bird. I think Grass and Dark covers everything that isn't hit by its STAB Normal. Would be interesting in a Trick Room team.

Kubi Wrote:Well this is interesting. I was looking to make another Zoroark, so I traded something for a Zorua from the GTS. It's not shiny, but it had 4 egg moves on it; momento, counter, sucker punch, and extrasensory. Someone must've spent a lot of time breeding all those egg moves onto it.

I'm doing some breeding with it, so let me know if anyone wants a Zorua with those egg moves.

Kubi Wrote:Yeah, I know. It probably did change with this generation with adding in fairy to it.
Like before, there was some formula or something that's tied to a specific IV which determine's the type. Breeding around for that as well as getting the IVs you want will take a while. I guess at least in this generation, it's only those with extremely shallow special move pools that will make use of it. Technician users will have something better.

Colress Wrote:I read somewhere (I think Bulbapedia) that there is no Fairy type HP and that the formula used to calculate type from gens 3 to 5 is still being used.

Just found out my shiny Delphox has the rare Dark type HP...which won't help it much unless it were facing another Delphox or Victini.

Kubi Wrote:Oke, I added you. Feel free to trade me whenever you catch me on.

I guess it's mostly just Rotom that needs to use hidden power for coverage.

For Goodra, it really depends on what you want it to do. It looks like it can fill a lot of roles with any of its abilities.

It's a good special tank, and can make use of its special attack.
Maybe put 252 into sp attack, and split the rest into HP and Def. Then give it an assault vest?

Can't find your fc in the thread, what is it again?
