Rate please~

[The Corrosion]

Bump?

[The Corrosion]

This is growing to be really annoying.

[Deino Dan]

Your team is good but train Zekrom because it is ten levels below the rest. By the way good job making your pokemon know all different types of moves. Another thing is Hydreigon can learn Tri-Attack(awesome move) just give the move rememberer girl a heart scale.

Somebody?

Long post...

Ability: Victory Star
Moveset:
Confusion Psychic
Zen Headbutt Brick Break or Focus Blast
Flame Burst Searing Shot
Wild Charge / Thunderbolt

I replaced Confusion with Psychic since Psychic is a stronger Confusion. Zen Headbutt can be replaced with Brick Break if you want Physical Power, though Focus Blast is the better option. Searing Shot is better than Flame Burst in every way, so get your Heart Scale ready and head to the Mistralton Pokémon Center. Wild Charge can be replaced with Thunderbolt, as the recoil is heavily unneeded.

Psychic can be found in Route 13, but it requires Strength. You can receive Brick Break from a woman in the Iciruss Pokémon Center lobby, Focus Blast can be found in Wellspring Cave, and Thunderbolt can be found in the P2 Laboratory.

Ability: Mold Breaker
Moveset:
Surf X-Scissor
Swords Dance
Poison Jab Earthquake
Dragon Claw Outrage

X-Scissor can be a good replacement for Surf, though I don't see what you won't be killing with a Swords Dance-boosted Outrage or Earthquake. Swords Dance is fine as it is, so yeah. Poison Jab is replaced by Earthquake, for killing Steels that could otherwise wall this set. Outrage, which is learned by Haxorus on lv. 66, will be your primary killing tool. Even though it comes with a cost, confusion at the end of the move, you would probably kill everything, with the exception of bulky Steels, with a Swords Dance-boosted Outrage. To remedy that, it is suggested you make him hold a Persim Berry if you have one.

X-Scissor can be found on Route 7 and Earthquake is in Relic Castle 1F; in the room that leads to the exit to the northwest of the desert, near the stairs.

Ability: Overgrow
Moveset:
Leaf Blade Reflect or Light Screen
Leaf Storm / Leech Seed
Giga Drain / Energy Ball
Growth Calm Mind

Serperior's movepool is ridiculously shallow, it couldn't even learn Earthquake! Leaf Blade can be replaced by either Reflect or Light Screen, whichever suits your team. Leaf Storm can be replaced by Leech Seed (Get some Heart Scales ready!). It feels great when there is Reflect or Light Screen, so your opponent will be dealing significantly reduced damage. Then every turn, a bit of their HP is given to your Pokémon. Giga Drain can be replaced with Energy Ball, even though the difference in Base Damage is very small, there is a chance your opponent's Special Defense will be lowered. Growth is replaced with Calm Mind, because you don't have a physical move to run anyway.

You can buy Reflect and Light Screen in the Nimbasa Pokémon Center for 30,000 each, though of course, you won't need to buy both of them. Leech Seed can be relearned, so get ready with a Heart Scale and go to the Mistralton Pokémon Center. Energy Ball can be found in Route 12, while Calm Mind can be received from a Sage in the Relic Castle.

Ability: Intimidate
Moveset:
Outrage
Bulldoze Bulk Up
Crunch
Earthquake

I don't see anything wrong with this set except for Bulldoze. Bulldoze is a weaker EQ, with the side effect of lowering the Speed of the targeted Pokémon. Why do you even need that, anyway? Bulk Up raises Krookodile's already awesome Attack and average Defense by one stage each.

Bulk Up can be received from a Sage in Route 14.

Ability: Teravolt
Moveset:
Dragon Breath Outrage or Dragon Claw
Strength Bulk Up
Zen Headbutt Stone Edge
Fusion Bolt

Dragon Breath can be replaced by Outrage, which Zekrom learns on Lv. 85. If you don't want to exert that much effort, Dragon Claw is for you. Zekrom's Attack is better than his (its?) Special Attack, so utilize that. Strength is replaced by Bulk Up, an excellent move that raises Zekrom's Attack and Defense. Stone Edge is there to kill the Ice-types that would run over your whole team (All your team members bar Victini, so what would happen to you once you'll face Kyurem?). Fusion Bolt is lovely STAB, so keep it. Strangely, Zekrom can't learn Earthquake. Poor thing.

Stone Edge is found in Challenger's Cave B2F. You can only enter Challenger's Cave if you defeated the E4, which I suppose you've done, judging from the levels of your Pokémon and you having Zekrom.

Ability: Levitate
Moveset:
Dragon Pulse
Hyper Voice Focus Blast
Flamethrower
Surf

There's nothing wrong with your set here, except for Hyper Voice, which is useless. Focus Blast is for Ice-types that will kill you.

I think I mentioned where to get Focus Blast in Victini's spoiler, so yeah.

Alright, first, do you notice all of the percentages at the top? Those indicate how much percent an attack of the type listed on the left-hand column will do. Normal damage is 100%, "Super Effective" attacks are 200%, and "It's not very effective..." attacks are 50%.

Additionally, a Pokemon with two types can have a double Weakness or a double Resistance. Some Pokemon also have a full immunity to certain types.

This table here shows how many Pokemon on your team are weak or resistant to all of the different types. In each cell is listed how many Pokemon of the coresponding type take X% damage to the attack.

Any cell in a bright red means you should consider changing your team around, because you have a large weakness in that type!

^...You did notice my comments on my team at the bottom, didn't you? It said I would replace one of my team with Jellicent and that Zekrom needs a make over. I really do hope that you read the comments next time. About the low accuracy moves...no, just NO. I hate low accuracy moves with a passion - just don't ask why.

And my charger cord is lost. NO change can or will be made until I get a new one.

Well... you know, Verinia DID rate your team and I don't see anywhere in your first post about a Jellicent. Either way, in my opinion you have far too many dragon types. I can understand the Hydreigon and Haxorus though (due to the physical and special between both) but I really think you need to change the movesets in a couple of pokémon.

To get Heart Scales, your best chance is to go catch some Luvdisc around Undella Town. They have a 50% chance of holding them. Just in-case you didn't know.

Victini I would agree and replace Confusion with Psychic. It makes more sense to have a stronger Psychic move which has a chance to lower Special Defence, thus creating an opening to deal more Special damage. I would also agree in replacing Flame Burst with Searing Shot. I would also possibly replace Zen Headbutt with Reversal. The less HP you have, the stronger it becomes. So in dire situations you have a move which can seriously harm you opponents. An Electric type move (like Verinia said) would be great - Wild Charge and Thunderbolt/Thunder all work for this respect. Other than that, I'd say Victini is alright.

Haxorus.. now then. Most of your moveset and everything is fine. I would just replace Surf with something better- which I know you're already planning on doing. I would agree that X-Scissor or something would be appropriate. Maybe even a Giga Impact if you're being totally confident or something. I don't see much wrong with it.

Serperior.. I think you could probably have a pretty good annoyer right here. According to Serebii, Serperior has a higher Defence and Special Defence than it's Attack and Special Attack. You can use this to your advantage here. What I would do is teach it Toxic, and keep in Leaf Blade and possibly teach it Double Team. Then I you can choose what you want to give it.. if it was me doing it, I'd probably teach it Coil. It raises Attack, Defence and Accuracy. But it's up to you. Either way, Serperior isn't really much of an attacker and i would use him/her as an annoyer to weaken your opponent's team.

Krookodile.. I'm not sure how good it is for Intimidate, but if I'm being honest - Moxie is a much better ability. Increases your attack one stage for every pokémon it faints. So if you're in a double or triple battle and Krookodile faints all 2 or 3, it's attack would go up 2 and 3 stages respectively. Currently the moves on my own Krookodile are: Outrage, Earthquake, Shadow Claw and Foul Play. Shadow Claw would provide a good opposite for Foul Play when against Psychic types. Seeing as Foul Play works based on your opponents Attack Stat, Psychic Pokémon don't really have a high attack stat, thus meaning it's not used to it's full potential. Plus Shadow Claw has a high Critical Hit ratio to go with it. Foul Play would help against Ghost types (and maybe a couple of Psychic Types who have a good attack) Earthquake as you know would provide an excellent coverage against various types and Outrage is there just as a powerful move (in-case I go against something big) So I would mainly replace Crunch with Foul Play. Stronger move than Crunch. But yeah, I think you'd definitely need to find a replace for Bulldoze. Maybe a stat enhancing move would be good. I would also give it a Razor Fang. Chance to make your opponents flinch is great.

Now Zekrom... I would just replace him with something else. This is where the Dragon Types come to an end. Currently your team is a walk in the park if your opponent has Ice Types. So, I would suggest changing it completely and training a Klingklang. It has a coverage of Electric (Same as Zekrom) but not weak to Ice. I would teach it Lock On, Zap Cannon, Flash Cannon (if you have the TM for it, you can find it in Twist Mountain) and Metal Sound. You'd have better coverage from a lotmore types too, due to having more Pokémon being not effective against it.

Hydreigon... yeah, there's nothing actually wrong with it. Just do what Verinia said and replace Hyper Voice with Focu Blast and you're good to go.



On another note, I seriously think you need to slot in that Jellicent and maybe a Flying type somewhere along the way. I'm using an Archeops personally (with Fly, Acrobatics [which is actually a pretty powerful move, providing you don't make it hold an item] Dragon Claw and Rock Slide) But it's up to you.

But yes, I've noticed your comments on other people's thoughts and if you really want C+C I'd suggest you'd like... not get bitchy about it. After all you did ask for it and people are giving it to you

Hope this helps.
