Khoi Wrote:STAB w/ Fire + Belly Drum + Salac = does not compute. K, so you get extra damage, Belly Drum activates salac, but there goes 75% of your HP if you count in Sub. . . So you wasted that for a increment in speed, spe. att with fire, and a max boost for att. Anything with STAB'ed QA or ES > that, instantly. Send out CB'ed Arcanine, and even without STAB, it's GG instantly. She might be talking about 3rd Gen, but 3rd Gen Chari is pretty LOLuseless.
Honestly, I'd rather waste a slot for fcking Smeargle. Sub + Spore + Belly Drum + BP into almost anything that has high speed and can physical-sweep really well. O HELLO AERODACTYL.
Of course it's not some ultimate combo, otherwise Chari would be used a lot more. But people don't expect it really, unless they know my team beforehand. I usually use it as a late game sweeper, once I've already gotten a feel for most of their team. That way I know what they have that can and can't take out Chari, as well as what pokemon Chari would be able to come in with a substitute without wasting it.
Usually when I play against others, I don't get a look at their team and they don't get a look at mine. I feel its better that way, so you're not analyzing how to counter their team before hand. You work on your feet and come up with a strategy on the fly. I feel its more exciting that way. So, because of that, I can catch people off guard with my Charizard.
By the way, I have a BP Smeargle and do pass to my Aerodactly.
