I'd have to grind for another shiny to have it fit on Team Purple and it's really more bright pink that purple

STARMIE :D

thanks to dazzling gleam!!!

You'd probably want to keep thunderbolt and get rid of icebeam since watertypes are only weak against lightning/grass, and it helps your nidoking out since he's weak against water.

oh my loving adasf

jesus this made me cringe harder than it should have.

don't need to remind of all my losts :C

[Regulith]

You don't need to make your Pokemon able to counter everything, Nidoking isn't exactly greased lightning so a lot of things are going to be faster than you and be able to just mop up with a STAB super-effective move

[Niff]

someone should explain what STAB means

[Zanaran2]

someone should explain what STAB means

same-type attack bonus
if a pokemon uses a move that is the same type as itself it gets a 50% boost

why would you keep nidoking in on his weakness?
