What 2 moves would work best on a Kingdra, with Waterfall and Dragon Dance- Draco Meter, Outrage, Hydro Pump or Yawn?
drop dragon dance- it doesnt make kingdra fast enough. If you want the speed and power, use it after a teammate has used Rain Dance. Generally the best Kingdra is the wall-breaker, so run Waterfall / Surf / Ice Beam / (some Dragon move).

If you want to power up Kingdra, DONT use Dragon Dance, use Rain Dance! The boost to speed and power is better than a single DD can offer.

Personally I prefer Outrage...

How about a Double Dancer with Rain Dance to power up the Waterfall...?
What he said. It's mega sexy.

EDIT: c3's idea is good too. However, if you do that then I advise using the Mixed Rain Dance set on Smogon, or something along those lines. If you want to find it quickly, it's the third set from the bottom, right above Rain Dance (special) and right below Dragon Dance (Ubers). It seems pretty legit.

You are destined to have a Sharpedo. I suggest rebreeding and EV training that hoe, and give it a choice Item- run the mixed sweeper set.

That Sharpedo has chosen you, not the other way around. Keep it, for it will serve you well.

-The two pokés must be of different genders (duh)
-The two pokés must be in the same Egg Group (search on Serebii or whatever what egg group your pokés are)
-No Lati@s

Breeding works the same in every game. Your pokés most likely weren't in the same Egg Group.

I removed the "(ASK ALL POKEMON RELATED QUESTIONS HERE)" in the title because, all Pokemon -elated questions? In the Poke Center? What other sort of questions would one ask in here? It just seemed like it wasn't needed.

Why is Weezing UU? It essentially has no weakness, and learns Will-o-Wisp, Haze, and Pain Split.

Anyone happen to have an extra shiny Deoxys just lying around they don't need...

Always wanted one...

Edit: AH! Everytime I see a Shiny Deoxys on the GTS, and I happen to have the pokemon to trade...I get an error and it resets my game!



I'll trade a LEGAL Shaymin for it...

Because Psychic usually OHKO's it. Well, depends on who uses Psychic or another Psychic-type move.

I understand your view because of Levitate, but Psychics own Weezing!

Azelf and Cresselia are the only Pokemon that commonly carry Psychic in OU (according to June's statistics). Azelf usually Explodes after setting up SR, and Cresselia would rather have Ice Beam for coverage.

Well, since we're being specific here, maybe a Pokemon EV'd MAX for Sp. ATK and built to be a sweeper would probably OHKO a Weezing with a Psychic-move at or above BA 90.

Well, sure, that would be a OHKO. But Cresselia is OHKOd by a Crunch from a Pokemon with base 200 Atk and max EVs.

Weezing is slow and has mediocre attacking stats. Despite having access to Flamethrower/Fire Blast, Thunderbolt/Thunder, and Hidden Power Ice, it won't really do severe damage to things, except for 4x weaknesses and such. Heatran, an extremely common Pokemon, is like, the best switch-in to Weezing ever. And not only Psychic types, but Weezing has a weakness to Special Attacks in general. Haze is normally considered worse than Roar/Whirlwind I believe, but it still gets the job done.

When you use a move like Iron Defense, Swords Dance, Roar... boosting moves, how much does one stage equal to? And two stages IS twice that, right?

BTW, let's say you have 236 Defense, Attack, or whatever else as an example.

Stage -6: 0.25
Stage -5: 0.29
Stage -4: 0.33
Stage -3: 0.4
Stage -2: 0.5
Stage -1: 0.67
Stage 0: 1
Stage 1: 1.5
Stage 2: 2
Stage 3: 2.5
Stage 4: 3
Stage 5: 3.5
Stage 6: 4

so for a 236 stat:
+1 = 236*1.5=354
+2 = 236*2=472

Ok, thank you. Another thing, if it was a stat of 430, would 6 stages bring it all the way to 1720? Or would it stop at some point before that?

And lastly, the effects of Power Trick can be baton passed, correct? So if I were to use Power Trick with Shuckle, then Baton Pass it, would the Pokemon it's being Baton Passed to have the same attack stat as my Shuckle? Or would that Pokemon have their defense and attack switched?

Yes, you would have a stat of 1720.

Power Trick can be baton passed, yes, and the recipient will have its attack and defense switches, but it's not a really good strategy as most pokés with massive defense have bad speed greatly limiting their sweeping potential.

Should I post a thread about the Action Replay codes you need for legal pokemon?
I.E. Nature, pokemon mod, EV mod, IV mod, move mod but they are all legal stats/ moves?
When I found those it was very helpful and I thot I could put them all together for everyone to see.

PokeSav is overrated :-(
I remember the days of make the pokemon transfer the code here now put it in ur AR after 55555 minutes ok now test it *game freezes*
I did the AR update on a comp, then had to switch comps now I can't downgrade that update which means it is old-fashioned code typing for me :(
Smaller than putting in a Pokesav code.

Can't you just copy-paste the entire code?
Read my post veeeeeeeeery slowly...
I HAD MY UPDATE ON ANOTHER COMP and I can't reset my AR, this comp wont recognise it because its a higher version.
And this is off topic anyway should I just post it I think it could be helpful in SOME way...
people who had this problem...

So POKeSAV works by connecting into the action replay and entering the codes? ...Interesting.

Does it have a way to make the pokemon shiny?
