When I first got into Pokmon a while ago, Kecleon was my favourite Pokmon, because chameleons were and still are my animals, so no doubt I loved Kecleon. For all the people who just love Magcargo or Torkoal, I choose Camerupt due to type advantages. - Ice Beam - Hidden Power (TM) / Flash (TM) / Thunder Wave (TM)*. Fly is Crobat's main STAB, but if you don't want to wait 2 turns you can use Acrobatics. - Thunderbolt I didn't really think of Medicham as something that was very worthwhile, but I tried it out as I wanted to use Azumarill. Tate & Liza: Send out Swampert and Gyarados. - Bullet Punch Ability: Immunity - Crunch Make sure to get a Pickup Linoone specifically; the prospect of free items is simply too good to pass up. - Psychic Ability: Inner Focus Pyre), Will-O-Wisp (TM61 - Mt. Deadly against Dragon types and can use Shadow Ball on fellow Psychics. - Dragon Claw. - Calm Mind Medicham @ Medichamite Swords Dance boosts its already decent attack and makes it a good physical sweeper, especially when Mega Evolved. - Nuzzle The Assault Vest makes Aggron more of a tank, and I don't use status moves anyway. :), This team features not one, but two HM slaves, to allow the rest of the team to fire on all cylinders. Ice Beam - Knock Off Also on Route 111, we encounter one of the most underrated Gen 3 mons IMO. Flamethrower - Leech Life (starting move) > Wing Attack (Level 13) > Acrobatics (Level 35) The Flash Fire ability is underrated, but if you can pick up Drought do so. But anyways, Swampert is a great pick because he fills the spot for the Water HM user and he has a great movepool. Ice Beam- Good power, covers Grass weakness - Poison Jab You make a Pokemon stronger and get Gallade much earlier at the same time! You can teach Manectric Thunder Wave if you don't get the Hidden Power type you want, or for when you are about to catch a Legendary Pokmon. - Surf - Focus Blast / False Swipe. - Tackle (starting move) > Bulk Up (TM08 - Obtained after defeating Brawly) > Close Combat (Level 46). Surf is because I was too lazy keep switching Pokmon so I had a different Surf-er, whereas, if you are patient enough, Superpower just gives him a little more coverage. Lenny (Linoone) @ Nothing It has enough power to easily drag a boulder weighing more than a ton. - Drill Peck - Hammer Arm I also used a Metagross, but you can't get that easily anymore. Swampert's strongest moveset is Mud Shot & Hydro Cannon and it has a Max CP of 2,974. Mist Ball/Luster Purge. Power-Up Punch is better just because it will always raise Attack and is 100% accurate. Magical Leaf is good for Rock types and Water types. Volt Switch: is great STAB and lets you pivot. TM Earthquake: Seafloor Cavern (on the main path, can't miss it) - Psycho Cut The first team on this list that wasn't just Hoenn all over I like this team. - Steel Wing. - Fly. The other three main team members should be plenty up to that point, though, and with how fantastic Salamence is, it's arguably worth the effort. - Earthquake Found at the route after Rustboro and Petalburg Woods, Swellow can be quite useful in battle and as a flyer. Pyre Raichu is fast enough to not need Quick Attack. -Moonblast Pyre). For every Pokemon on the team, give recommended moves for use throughout the playthrough. Fire Blast and Flamethrower are great moves, but I prefer Fire Blast because of Contests. Moonblast and Psychic are its main STAB, and Shadow Ball is Ghost coverage. Changed my team according to the suggestions. If you choose not to evolve your Magneton and just give him the Eviolite from Route 123, he has less HP and less in both Attacks than Magnezone, but every other stat gets better. - Foul Play It also creates free turns for Mega Swampert with its slow U-turn and by baiting in Electric-types such as Zapdos and Tapu Koko. Steel-typing gives it good resistances and pretty good STAB moves throughout the game. - Toxic I couldn't have Gardevoir as they are both Psychic-type, and the road to Gallade is pretty tough on Kirlia, so I decided on Meditite, and I was pretty happy with my decision. Now if you want. - Stone Edge So Energy Ball is STAB, Dragon Claw is STAB as a mega and Earthquake and Rock Slide cover all other weaknesses. With Skill Link, Bullet Seed becomes one of the best Grass-type moves out there, and Earthquake is a standard. Metagross @ Expert Belt But if you do, I would certainly recommend it. - Steel Wing, Item: anything The last slot is a coverage holder. Thunderbolt is your Electric STAB move, Flash Cannon is your Steel STAB move, Thunder Wave cripples opponents and can help with Magnezone's bad Speed, and Charge Beam can buff up their Special Attack so they can tear through teams. With Mega Sceptile's high Special Attack, it's a great filler move, plus it seems to come in handy a lot (other than its bad accuracy). - Sludge Bomb - Rock Slide Ability: Static Just don't use against a Grass type. Of course Ghost is a problem, but if your entire team is wiped and Linoone is your only surviving Pokemon, you're in serious trouble anyway. - Power-Up Punch Swampert | BW | Smogon Strategy Pokedex Magical Leaf was primarily used against Wallaces Whiscash and Milotic, but it was also very helpful for dealing with Team Aquas Carvanha and Sharpedo, so Gardevoir wouldnt take extra damage from Rough Skin. Grass Knot covers Ground types. He has amazing Special Defence and good Attack, and a pretty great movepool. Magnezone will be great help against Norman and Winona, but watch out for Earthquake on Altaria. When theres a particularly annoying Pokemon that I don't want to waste one of my key troops on, I roll out Ninetales to hand out some super-effective mojo. While everyone thinks Dawn Stones are a pain to obtain just use Super Training! Ability: Rock Head - Dragon Claw / Dual Chop - U-turn. Also useful against Steven's Metagross. - Cut, Sableye Item: Miracle Seed Yawn / Earthquake: Yawn if you can be bothered breeding it. Tentacruel Gyarados @ Rocky Helmet (Pre-E4 - no items, moves or Pokmon only available in the Post-Game) Mudkip will be better for your Water HM user, and Blaziken has better type advantage, but guess what? Ability: Torrent --> Swift Swim Psycho Cut/Psychic Thunder Wave can be used in the same way, since it learns Thunder Wave through levelling up and you get Thunder Wave as a TM quite early in game. Flannery: Marshtomp easily solos this Gym with Mud Shot as well. Item: Black Glasses Tri Attack is a decent move and is really just a filler and Flash Cannon is your Steel type STAB. To keep things tidy, we will remove any teams posted as comments in this thread. The moves give the best coverage he can have. - Volt Tackle / Discharge - Signal Beam. - Earth Power Toxic and Protect wear the opponent down effectively. - Psychic - Bite (starting move) > X-Scissor (TM80 - Victory Road) 2. Surf: STAB and an HM. Swellow and Sharpedo are also constantly in the party, while Blaziken, Gardevoir and Manectric are constantly rotated, that way by the time I get to the Pokmon League I'll have a full party of six that are battle ready. Hammer Arm for coverage and Ice Punch takes care of the 4x Grass weakness. They also have a Mega Evolution that makes that Dragon-type, which is pretty handy. before Flannery, not enough coverage, id replace delcatty with a linnone hm slave and mightyana with garnavor with movesets of. Good Special Attack, Special Defense and Speed, but low HP and Defense. Gallade Same with Earthquake. - Focus Blast Medicham - Shadow Ball - Stone Edge: see above Swampert is very strong. Until then, use whatever item you think works. Ability: Pickup Roserade: Route 117 (Roselia), Super Training (Shiny Stone) Shadow Ball for other STAB, and Confuse Ray just to be annoying. - Coil - Thunderbolt Crobat @ Soothe Bell > nothing - Stone Edge Swords Dance: Good for setting up. Grovyle is easily dealt with by Golbat/Crobat. - Wake-Up Slap - Strength - Psychic Teams should be aimed toward making casual runs of the game efficient, enjoyable and hassle-free. I used an Air Cutter Beautifly to cleanly KO it, but if you didnt pick one up, Wing Attack Zubat should also make quick work of it. Bro sub out Gardevoir for Gallade as it takes forever to get dawn stone if you have one system like me. Who needs an Uber starter and the only Grass/Dragon type? Swmapert can also be an HM slave. Exploud is a decent Pokmon with stats that tend to lean towards the Special Attack. - Dark Pulse. Moves are after getting rid of most HMs for the E4 and Champ. - Flamethrower I sometimes rotate my Pokemon around, so these might not be the six I always use. Silk Scarf-boosted Fake Out does quite a lot of damage to neutral opponents, and free damage is excellent. Swampert - Movesets & Best Build for Ranked Battle | Pokemon Sword and - Double-Edge - Strength Pokemon: Making The Perfect Gen III Team - The Gamer Gardevoir @ Miracle Seed / Rocky Helmet Yawn. Skyler (Flygon) @ anything Waterfall and Crunch are physical STAB. Ninetales @ anything - Dragon Claw. Fly is more for convenience than damage, but it could work well in combination with Swamperts Surf in a Double Battle. - Confuse Ray. - Surf / Dive as it is needed for the story mode. - Boomburst Ability: Shell Armor Azumarill @ Quick Claw What is a good in-game team for Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald? - Earthquake Dig can be used in the same way as an Escape Rope to escape caves and Surf can be used to surf at a normal speed (since we also have Sharpedo in the party). Great Pokemon who also gets Fly and Strength. Altaria is my favorite Dragon type you can obtain in Hoenn (Besides Flygon). Psychic is STAB. - Growl (starting move) > Mud Shot (Level 16) > Brick Break (TM31 - Sootopolis City). I'm about to challenge the E4 while writing this: Cuddles (Swampert) @ Swampertite - Shadow Ball I call it a SpA Sweeper Specialist. Swellow @ Sharp Beak - Earthquake. - Fly The Diantha look-alike set would be ideal considering Hyper Voice is useless if I Mega Evolve Blaziken, but if you want to invest fully in Gardevoir, go ahead. You have to Mega Evolve Heracross. Ability: Sand Veil Share Playthrough), Sceptile @ Sceptilite (I SR'd for a Shiny - it was worth it lol) It was replaced with Shadow Ball once Wallace was defeated. Gardevoir - Psychic/Fairy - Psychic - (filler move). Shadow Ball: Mt Pyre, the giant casket room with the Medichamite Ability: Sturdy U-turn- Good power, allows you to switch Pokemon without wasting a turn. - Arm Thrust (starting move) > Force Palm (Level 13) > Wake-Up Slap (Level 38) Lucy (Ninetales) @ Pecha Berry - Close Combat: Level 43 your ORAS team? : r/pokemon - Reddit For Boomburst, use a Heart Scale or just level up to level 58. - Water Gun (starting move) > Surf (HM obtained after defeating Norman) - Dive, I had to make him into a HM slave since I didn't have any other team members that could learn the Water HM's and I didn't wanna get rid of a team member to have an HM slave. but they are not necessary. - Calm Mind Sceptile @ Sceptilite - Dragon Pulse At least all the moves are STAB :/, Aki (Breloom) @ Silk Scarf - Cut Blaziken is my personal favorite of the Hoenn starters, and his Mega is amazing, so why not? Good team but I would replace Gyarados with Aggron as you have 2 members weak to electric types and Aggron walls most of the E4 combined with its broken mega evolution with solid defence and great offensive power, other than that, good team :). Before you ask why I have two Megas on this team, I Mega Evolve a different one depending on the situation. Ability: Static / Lightning Rod --> Intimidate Good "All-Around" Team? - Pokemon Alpha Sapphire - GameSpot Ability: Lightning Rod / Static There are others moves you could use here, like Sunny Day or Amnesia. - Thunderbolt / Discharge This Pokmon also has powerful vision that lets it see even in murky water. This team performed very well in a Nuzlocke I just completed, and it makes a very strong team for a casual playthrough as well. - Moonblast: Level 62 or Move Reminder in Fallarbor Town - Rain Dance / Rock Slide / Hammer Arm. Intro Pokmon Team Builder Reimagined | Best Swampert Team | Ruby, Sapphire & Emerald SuperSalamence93 13.3K subscribers Join Subscribe 417 Share Save 33K views 1 year ago Hey guys how's it. I know, I know, no Pokmon has Fly, Dive, Strength or Rock Smash and that's because I just waited to get the Eon Flute before doing any Flying and the rest was just me switching out random HM Slaves and other Pokmon to do what was necessary. Raichu @ Magnet Blazer (Blaziken) @ Blazikenite - Draining Kiss - Power-Up Punch - Magic Coat Ability: Rock Head Walrein @ Leftovers Swap it for Psychic or something if you wish, but the signature moves have coin-flip odds to lower one of the target's Special stats (Attack for Latias, Defence for Latios). - Dragon Rage (Level 23) > Ice Fang (Level 32). You can only get a Dawn Stone from Wally after you beat him at the Victory Road, which let's you evolve your Kirlia into a Gallade. Heart Scales: Repeatedly use Rock Smash on Route 111 (right outside Mauville City), Sceptile @ Wide Lens / Sceptilite - Swords Dance - Waterfall If you really want to, you can replace Headbutt with Surf for another HM move, or Shadow Claw for better coverage. Manectric @ Manectite It was a pain to train her up as a Vulpix but it was totally worth it. I've always loved Banette so I decided to use one on this team! Linoone You might be wondering why so few HMs. Shadow Claw to help against Ghost types is another option. Best Team for Hoenn ft. Zeldawars - YouTube Fly and Steel Wing are STAB, Night Slash is coverage and Spikes or Toxic are great status moves. Swampert (Pokmon GO) - Best Movesets, Counters, Evolutions and CP You can also take on Winona with Stone Edge, but it is not recommended. People may not like spending money on TMs, and Stone Edge isn't too reliable either. Shadow Ball/Dazzling Gleam/Grass Whistle. Hariyama destroys the Elite 4, being good against Sidney, Phoebe and Steven. - Moonblast STAB Earthquake and Waterfall from base 150 Attack is quite strong. - Iron Head They have a really good movepool and who wouldn't want to fly around the huge Hoenn region on a dragon?! However if you don't have the time to get Protean, just catch the first one, and SR for a good Nature. Ability: Intimidate - Earthquake. - Fly - Cut Zen Headbutt is a decent STAB move with a decent flinch chance, High Jump Kick is a very powerful STAB move (but you will want to be careful using it), Ice Punch covers her Flying weakness, Bulk Up allows it to set up a possible sweep, and Poison Jab covers her Fairy weakness. Good team. Pickup is super useful as well, hence why it has no item. - Surf - Strength Skarmory - Ice Beam / Frost Breath So this comes very early on in the game. Well since Sceptile is more specially offensive leaf blade isnt an option, of course you could have Giga drain instead but energy ball has more power which is better with an offensive pokemon like sceptile. Because his Attack was already pretty good compared to his Special Attack, there's no doubt about whether or not it would be a physical set. - Giga Drain. - Magical Leaf - Brick Break: TM31 in Sootopolis City. Night Slash: Helps against Psychic types. - Flamethrower Ability: Overgrow (Mega Sceptile: Lightning Rod) This is a in-game team, it doesn't need to set up. Psychic is stronger on the remaining Pokemon, and the Special Defense boosts from Calm Mind will allow Gardevoir to live Milotics Hydro Pump and take down Wallaces entire team. - Flamethrower Rock Slide: On a small island on Route 134 - Hone Claws Best in-game team for Swampert/Mudkip? - Pokemon Alpha Sapphire - GameSpot - Earthquake / Knock Off / Heavy Slam / Poison Jab. Latios/Latias @ Latiosite / Latiasite / Soul Dew - Flash Canon Skarmory @ Leftovers - Rock Smash - Earthquake (TM) / Stone Edge (TM). Flygon - Ground/Dragon - Rock Smash - Acrobatics Absol has a super high Attack stat and good Speed. TM Ice Beam: Sea Mauville - Dark Pulse: TM97 at the Team Magma/Aqua Hideout - Volt Switch. Pick Up = free crap. - Stone Edge / Rock Slide Quick question, what would be a good froslass alternitive? Return / Facade: STAB move. Giga Drain is learnt by the prior evolution, I think. Also raichu is one of my favorite pokemon. - Cut (HM) - Crunch Moveset. Hariyama @ Expert Belt Hey guys how's it going? It can be given a Wacan Berry in case Salamence connects with a Thunder Punch, but its very difficult to lose this battle. Only use it if you didn't choose Brick Break. Energy Ball covers all weaknesses and Flamethrower is solid STAB. - Ice Beam - Zap Cannon - Flamethrower Magnezone is a beast. - Solar Beam: TM22 at the Safari Zone Steel Wing- Covers Rock and Ice weaknesses Pokmon Team Builder | Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire - YouTube Ability: Synchronize / Trace --> Pixilate - Discharge. First off I love all of your Good In-Game team suggestions. - Shadow Ball Grass Pledge / Giga Drain: The former can be learnt from a Move Tutor in Mauville City if Sceptile has high Happiness. Return: Pacifidlog Town - Flash Cannon 81.9kg Male:87.5% Female:12.5% Monster Water 1: National Pokdex Hoenn Pokdex Abilities Hidden . Alright, so this will be your starter obviously. Ability: Levitate There isn't really much to say about them; they free up slots in the rest of the team's movesets and allow you to play the game. What is a good in-game team for Let's Go, Pikachu and Lets Go, Eevee? However, Sidney has two Grass types on his team, so be cautious. This guy has very good Attack and has a good movepool. What Pokemon Teams did you have on your Gen 3 playthroughs? Any good Sludge Bomb is STAB, Flamethrower is just for some coverage, Dark Pulse/Shadow Ball covers his only weakness in Psychic, and Will-O-Wisp/Infestation/Toxic is for chip damage, adding to his walling role. Crobat is probably the best flier in the game due to its high Speed and large variety of moves. Spike (Cacturne) @ Miracle Seed Confusion works well until you get Psychic, which is able to OHKO or 2HKO most neutral targets. - Earthquake: TM26 from Seafloor Cavern beneath Route 128. For its moves, Night Slash is STAB, and Psycho Cut is coverage on Fighting types. For the last move, you can use Rain Dance to work with Swift Swim, or you can use Rock Slide or Hammer Arm for coverage. Hey, gotta deal with 'em somehow! You can delete all HM moves once at the E4 and Linoone is good to deal with Phoebe. Gyarados @ anything Swampert - Strength (HM) - Quick Attack A very good wall, with good attacking stats but low Speed. So while Meteor Mash is really great STAB, it lacks reliability and accuracy. - Calm Mind Earthquake, Fly, and Dragon Claw are self-explanatory, and from there, pick an item and your choice of Ice coverage, and you're set! The last move is a variety of coverage moves. Is it in New Mauville? The other HM Slave of the team, your game's respective Lati Twin. Poison Jab: Mirage Mountain, requires Acro Bike Swampert @ Swampertite Gardevoir @ anything Moonblast is STAB and anti-Dragon. You can give it a Persim Berry to block Magnetons confusion, but it should be a clean sweep. - Discharge Manectric @ Magnet / Life Orb - Crunch / Earthquake. This is a good team but could I use swampert instead Of skeptile and replace gyrados with breloom. - Solar Beam - Thunderbolt. - Earthquake - Spikes, Magnezone - Ice Beam - Shadow Ball. - Cross Poison Crunch is very helpful against Ghost types, as the team doesnt have any Pokmon with STAB Dark or Ghost moves. Rock Slide: It's a great coverage move for two of Mega Sceptile's weaknesses. - Iron Head. Calm Mind was chiefly used to sweep Wallace for free, but because its also a TM, it can be swapped for things like Flash as the need arises. - Waterfall / Dazzling Gleam Magnezone @ Magnet With these moves, Swampert can beat Roxanne, Wattson, Flannery, Tate and Liza, and most of Team Magma's grunts and admins. Ability: Torrent > Swift Swim Linoone = Pick Up - Close Combat Swampert - holding Swampertite with the moves: -Surf -Earthquake -Ice beam -Rock Slide Magcargo - holding heat rock with the moves: -earth power -overheat -amnesia -Sunny day Magnezone holding. Sceptile has a nice physical movepool, so it's highly viable to have Leaf Storm as your sole special move and 3 other physical moves to allow Sceptile to stay in after using Leaf Storm. TM Thunderbolt: Mauville City (help Wattson clean up New Mauville) TM50 Overheat is awarded to the player as a prize for defeating Flannery. Rock Slide- Coverage against many of Sceptile's weaknesses, Swellow Ninetales is the butt of my team, but still fills a key role. Sceptile. - Earthquake. If not, Earthquake for Electric types (although its attack isn't that great). I think Aggron is worse than Gyarados because it's unable to sweep the Elite 4 like Gyarados can. Exploud can't learn Thunderbolt and you can only get Shockwave from Transfer or from the move Tutor. After it was of no use to me, I taught it Hidden Power again. - Leer (starting move) > Volt Switch (TM72 - Obtained after defeating Wattson)
