--- Quote from: Cargøn on January 24, 2014, 12:19:24 AM ---So if chain breeding works the way I think it does could I in theory pass storm throw from throh to a pangoro to bidoof to clauncher to binacle? the reason being a sniper pokemon with an always crit move like storm throw can pump out roughly 135 damage if my calculations are correct without the help of items --- End quote --- I don't think just any move could be passed so I'm going with no. Anyways, started making my new team. I'm turning a Trevenant into my defensive tank. It will have Harvest+Sitrus Berry, be EV trained in Def and HP, Impish nature. Moveset: Horn Leech Will O Wisp Phantom Force Rock Slide I feel like this is a bit too aggressive for a tank but I can't think of another move set, and with Rock Slide it allows it to hit Ice, fire and flying. Any suggestions? (Horn Leach I prefer over Wood Hammer because it lets me steal hp back) Edit: Considering replacing Will o Wisp with Hone Claws/Protect. |

Same could be said about ice beam-ers. Hone Claws has only one conditional situation where I can see it working, and that's in the case of a switch out. Ultimately, I feel honeclaws is better than will o wisp. Protect is practically just stalling, and without something happening while you're stalling, then it's a wasted slot. I'm guessing if you maxed its stats at 50, they'd look like this. hp 192 att 112 def 140 spatk 63 spdef 92 spd 71 that special defense is going to bite you so hard. ultimately, this is your choice to make. A defensive wall is great, but a tank is better. Covering all bases is where it's at. |

If a Gengar/Fast Ice Beamer (primarily Greninja it seems) got sent in I'd be switching out to something else, Trevenant isn't exactly going to be my tank for Def, he's in a weird spot. I'm going to be using him to switch into Physical attackers, maybe get a Hone Claws in and decide what to do from there. |
