The Pokemon D/P Thread

[Bartylby]

I just realized you need to have rl friends to get spiritbomb :/ serebii didnt word it very well, and ive never used underground before so I thought there were random people to talk to there D:

At least you can talk to the same person 32 times. If it had to absolutely be 32 different people it would suck. >_>

Spiritomb itself is pretty cool though. His typing yeilds no weakness like sableye.

Foresighted Fighting/Ground for 2x.

Lbelle just die and train your team. Alot of others I know are rushing through the game like you kinda did, and ending up with pokemon who are very high like 60+ but the rest of their team is very weak, rendering a type weakness in most cases because of a lack of variety/movepool. You're better off training a team of 6 varying pokemon to 45 and taking on the elite4. So just train those 30s you have to 45ish and try again.

Also a little tip for beating the elite4: Buy all the shit you want, tms, meds, etc, until you have an insignificant amount of money left. Now you can play the Elite4 over and over earning exp and whiting out without a loss at all. Eventually you'll get strong enough to beat them that way... After beating them a few times you also end up earning back the money you blew anyway. And who needs money in pokemon games anway pfft.

Only fags use medicine in a Pokemon game.

Or let their Pokemon die.

Are the Elite 4 this gen that hard? Their line up doesn't seem very impressive unless you're only limited to current gen's Pokemon. Except for the Champion's.

Also, it's Mirakuge or Spiritomb, not SPIRITBOMB. We're not on Namek anymore.

i am

I'm broke bitch!

Nick cannon stole your shoe's, how you like him now?

Foresight removes "No effect" also, why did I think ground is 2x versus Dark lol? My mental type chart is rusty

Yeah that was confusing me <_>

Dark is 2x weak vs Fighting and Bug. So, foresight gives fighting the ability to bypass ghost which it has no effect against and makes it like Dark/Ghost is just Dark? I've never read that anywhere, I guess I'll buy it though.

No it's still Ghost/Dark.

The easiest way to think of it is as if Foresight causes the "No Effect" which is 0x the base damage, to become neutral, x1 the base damage.

So in the end you have:

x1x2 from the Fighting/Bug resulting in x2.

It makes sense now, thanks.

You can still beat them down with a single pokemon if it's strong enough, but if your team is around 50-55 when you get to them, yeah, you'll have problems. As I mentioned before they have pokemon in their lineup that target the weaknesses of the rest of their team's type's weakness, and will switch it in immediately if needed. I think the highest level pokemon in the Elite Four is like 66.

Also, it's Mirakuge or Spiritomb, not SPIRITBOMB. We're not on Namek anymore.

I just checked out the new Pokemon on the list and realised that too.

Anyway, suggestions that should work in theory.

Dustox Heracross Vespiquen Beautifly Drapion

Salamance or Infernape, Flamethrower/Flare Blitz x4, Earthquake

Quagsire Hippowdon Sudowoodo Whiscash Golem

Sceptile or Leafeon or Roserade, Leaf Blade/Magical Leaf and Giga Drain, please proceed. 4 of them are 4x weak to Grass.

Rapidash Infernape Steelix Lopunny Drifblim

Surf/Earthquake the 1st 3, CLOSE COMBAT the bunny, Ice/Rock/Thunder/Ghost/Dark any one would rape the last, just need to be faster than him, decent speed with weaksauce defenses.

Personally I'd use my Infernape on this team, if he can't sweep it then I'll have to think of a better final build.

Mr. Mime Girafarig Medicham Alakazam Bronzong

Gengar, Shadow Ball. Last one seems tough, high defences, 2 weakness, Fire and Ground, 1 ability negates Ground attack, while the other reduces Fire damage taken, go with Fire.

>.> Suggestions welcomed.

[Priran]

It's not that simple. Unless you can oneshot them all, most if not all of them are prepared with a move to cover their weakness.

For the first one, Vespiquen often entrenches itself with Defend/Heal Order.

Second one really is cake, yeah.

For the third one, Lopunny and Drifblim aren't as simple as you make it seem. The Drifblim is a Baton Passer, and the Lopunny will rape you with Attract-type moves.

For the fourth one, unless you kill it in one hit, Mr. Mime will set up Light Screen/Reflect his first two turns, no exceptions (as far as I know). Medicham knows a Fire, Ice, Electric, and Grass type punch. All are fighting type, so he gets STAB, and the grass one drains. Girafarig knows I think some buffing moves. Bronzong just sucks to kill since he has ridiculous defense and HP, spams Clear Mind, and can't be Toxic'd. Also, I'm pretty sure all Trainer-held Bronzors/ongs have Levitate and not Heatproof.

Medicham knows a Fire, Ice, Electric, and Grass type punch. All are fighting type, so he gets STAB, and the grass one drains.

The punches are their respective elements so I don't think he gets STAB. Also the punch that drains HP is Drain Punch, TM60, and it's fighting type not grass. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[Lbelle]

1st time I went through the elite 4 it all seemed pretty easy until the last one, this time around it's all pretty hard and I'm only on the 3rd guy ugh

right, my bad, was thinking of other drain moves

Do what I suggested, it's what I did in my Emerald the first time through because my levels ended up being so low when I got the the E4 (around low 40s). So I just bought up until my money was very low and challenged them until I was around 50+. I imagine you're encountering trouble in one/two hitting Pokemon so that could also be remedied by taking my other advice which is rounding out your team so that you aren't limited to 3 very small movepools.

[SilverBreeze]

Does anyone have a Houndoom or Houndour egg they can trade me pleeeeeeeeeeease

[Lbelle]

All of my pokemon are atleast 45 and I am fully stocked on hyper potions and revives. The Elite 4 isn't supposed to be a cake walk...

[Lbelle]

YESSSSSSSSSSS BEAT THE ELITE 4 I LOVE DIALGA AND LUXRAY THEY SAVED THE DAY <3

[SilverBreeze]

lol grats, luxray is best pokemon, I told you! :D

[Lbelle]

[Deejay]

lol, kinda funny pokeymans story.

In the original red version i remember owning face at the elite 4 without using the rare candy cheat. I got all the way to the final battle with your rival. He was pretty much owning me and my entire team until i sent out my articuno which took 2 of his last 3 pokemon out. When he was switching to his last pokemon i was really sweating because I only had 2 ice beams left. (Since i used all my other moves on the first 4 trainers)

To my freakin uber delight my Articuno leveled up before he could send out his last pokemon. I got the message to learn a new move called Mist. I was jumping up and down like an idiot because I was so happy that I'd almost won. Anyways, 2 ice beams later his last pokemon had like 1% HP left and i was omg drooling because I thought I could finish him off easy with my newly learned attack.

ARTICUNO uses Mist!
Your ARTICUNO is shrouded in a foggy mist!

(-______-;,)



Fuckin bullshit. I went and told my friend about it who laughed and told me I shouldnt have learned Mist and just used struggle. I say Fuck that jazz, what the hell kinda legendary pkmn learns mist as such a rediuclously high level.
