Current team is Snivy, Lillipup, Munna, Patrat, Panpour and Purrlion, Cat is gonna go, being replaced by Bliztle, but should I replace one of: Lillipup, Patrat or Munna with Pidove? Just beat the first gym/second or third male rival fight.
Patrat and Pidove will probably go when I can catch better. Munna had the only psychic move that I could find, but had nothing better, disappointed me.
Munna is awful. It's a moderately bulky psychic that wants to pretend that it's Darkrai and fails miserably on every front.
They're not bad early on. But yeah you get access to much better after the 2nd gym. Early on it's mostly a shit storm of generics.
Random question, there isn't an option to keep the running shoes constantly on like there was in HG/SS, is there? Holding B is getting kind of annoying.
Ugh, I assume Bike is the third gym city, as usual?
Crud, how well did Lillipup and Bliztle hold up for most of the game? And Panpour, for that matter.
I'm starting to level a Sigilyph and Scraggy since I'm replacing Reuni because he's horribly slow and can't take hits, and since I have no dark or (real) fighting pokemon, These good?
Also After the elite four, where the fuck can I grind, all I see if people 12 levels higher than me my god, not like they are beating me but I dont wanna have the fear of them having the ability to push my shit in
Blitzle has really shit defenses, I have him on my team now but he died a lot when I was trying to level him.
Lilipup is a good pokemon, Stoutland holds up through the game and in competitive play, provided you give it some TMs to work with. Blitzle suffers from a painfully shallow movepool, and Panpour isn't awful if you have it packing Acrobatics and Surf in it's evolved form.
The monkeys are the source of a lot of debate, but really the only bad thing about them is how godawful their movepools are, that being said, Simipour is the least terrible of the bunch.
Lillipup ends up being ok. Blitztle is kind of lackluster due to shitty moves. Panpour and all the monkeys suck so much ass it's offensive.
Well I'll agree with Rokku that Panpour is the least shitty one out of the three.
Double post, but w/e, sorry in advance. Scraggy and Sigil are awesome pokes, Scraggy especially. As for grinding, your only real options are to fight trainers packing 65+ stuff, or endlessly grind wilds on the northeast half of the map with a lucky egg on.
edit: not even CLOSE to being a double post
Lillipup's evolutions are pretty solid throughout the whole game if you can deal with it not having STAB super effectives. STAB Normal moves from these things can be pretty nasty. Not to mention its nice to have something where Strength HM isn't a totally wasted move slot. It's pretty brutal from a Stoutland.
Blitzle on the other hand isn't quite as lucky. It tends to be more useful before evolving, just because of where you get in the game -- not much else to use. But its not that fantastic, imo, especially compared to other electrics you can get later (yay CompoundEyes Galvantula). It gets a fire move through level up though, during a time that you don't get any extra fire types unless you happened to wind up with Pansear.
I've been using a Petilill/Lilligant for my grass needs practically the whole game; Quiver Danced giga drains are hard for things to keep up with that don't totally resist it.
