best oras team with swampert

- Hammer Arm - Earthquake. Skarmory is a very defensive Pokemon. I would also recommend Mega Evolving Medicham more often than Sceptile, because Medicham is normally in bigger need of a buff to its stats. 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. Hey, gotta deal with 'em somehow! - Stone Edge: see above Giving Mega Swampert 152 Speed EVs is for out speeding Pokemon in rain not faster than Mega Sceptile, his arch enemy. Ability: Pure Power. - Shadow Ball I have one question though. - Brave Bird Swampert @ Soft Sand Echoed Voice was my Swablu's best buddy till it evolved and I just couldn't part with it, not to mention how much better it gets with Pixilate. Time for the HM Slaves. Strength and Cut are half-STAB, half-HM (more on Surf later), Rock Smash is an HM and is also great for Heart Scale farming, and Shadow Claw does good damage to the Ghosts that Linoone doesn't like. Ability: Shed Skin Night Slash/Shadow Ball I'd keep x-scissor on MSceptile and swap EQ with Leaf storm. Dragon STAB is surprisingly rare in Hoenn and hits a lot of things for fantastic neutral damage. Night Slash: Helps against Psychic types. Earthquake: Good coverage move. - Dragon Claw / Dual Chop Shadow Ball covers against Ghost and other Psychics. Aerial Ace for Fighting types. Magnezone @ Magnet - Thunder Wave / Hidden Power [Ice] I gave her Hone Claws so she could land Iron Tail/Stone Edge more often. Milotic is also another option, but evolving Feebas is a hassle. Today's team is Gen 6/3 ORAS starting with Torchic. Overall, just my favorite of the starters. Linoone: Route 101 (Zigzagoon) Volt Switch and Thunder Wave are there if you ever need it, and HM Strength is there because Manectric is the perfect Pokemon to hold it. Ability: Static - Dragon Claw. - Flamethrower Magical Leaf comes in handy against Water/Ground types that Manectric can't touch, as well as Rock/Ground types. The Magnemite line has great stats, including a monstrous Special Attack stat and a great Defence stat. Earthquake Strength - Cut (HM) Flip Turn. You could go mixed or choose Leaf Blade in place of Giga Drain and run Brick Break in place of Leaf Storm and go physical, although his base Attack isn't great compared to his Special Attack. - Dive Thunderbolt: Given by Wattson after calming the box legendary and investigating New Mauville Break Aggrons Sturdy with Quick Attack, and switch to Gyarados on an Earthquake to OHKO with Waterfall. I have finished the game twice and now I'm doing it again. Leech Seed and Toxic wears the opponent down. Any good water type alternatives for Walrein or Milotic? If not, Earthquake for Electric types (although its attack isn't that great). Steven gives you one early on and it's a great partner. - Rock Smash. - Pursuit - Earthquake / Knock Off / Heavy Slam / Poison Jab. - Fire Blast: TM38 at Lilycove Department Store for 30k Pokedollars Weezing has pretty good moves, pretty good stats, and a good defensive typing, which paired with Levitate, makes it a great physical wall. Strength because you need a Strength user and it's a decent move. That said, you can take advantage of Crobat's high Speed and good Attack to end most Pokemon quickly with STAB Acrobatics and Cross Poison. - Earthquake In these cases, the more generally helpful item will be noted instead. Ability: Pickup Woah. Ability: Torrent Gardevoir can also take on most of Team Aqua/Magma as the teams use a lot of Poison and Dark type Pokemon. Flygon @ anything Shadow Claw to help against Ghost types is another option. - Shadow Claw. I just love Mega Sceptile, he was my favorite starter from Hoenn and still is. Need I said more? TM71 Stone Edge can be purchased from the Lilycove Department Store for 30,000 Pokmon Dollars. - Double-Edge - Strength Ability: Guts Swampert @ Swampertite Moonblast is a great move as is, and just gets better when you Mega Evolve. Pickup gives you free stuff, he learns a good chunk of the HMs, and he evolves early! Share turned off, I decided having bulky Pokmon would be a good idea. Hariyama destroys the Elite 4, being good against Sidney, Phoebe and Steven. Flamethrower is a good move that provides coverage and takes out the pesky Grass types. The moves give the best coverage he can have. You have to Mega Evolve Heracross. It was replaced with Shadow Ball once Wallace was defeated. - Toxic / Toxic Spikes. - Crunch - Flamethrower Ability: Trace Arm Thrust is fairly subpar, but Force Palm is quite a solid move that will last until the midgame. - Calm Mind Nice dual type Pokemon. Dazzling Gleam is an alternative, not as powerful but strikes multiple enemies which is useful for hordes. I won't list the locations of the HM's since they're needed to complete the game anyway. Quick question, what would be a good froslass alternitive? - Crabhammer Shadow Ball: Mt Pyre, the giant casket room with the Medichamite Base 80 power and 100 accuracy make great use of its high Special Attack. Its better to replace Growl with Mud Shot instead of Mud-Slap in case you need the accuracy drops the latter provides, but Marshtomp should start reliably KOing things by the time it gets Dig to no longer need Mud-Slap. You can give it a Persim Berry to block Magnetons confusion, but it should be a clean sweep. - Ice Beam - Thunderbolt - Strength If you want, you can replace Tentacruel with Sharpedo, but it does have shoddy defences and it's rather lack luster without Speed Boost. - Earthquake Surf is preferred over Waterfall because of its higher base power, and Waterfall works better on Gyarados anyways. - Giga Drain / Leaf Storm And finally, in the depths on the Shoal Cave (and by the depths I mean the first room), we meet our final permanent team member, the thicc walrus. To get Dragon Dance, first reach the Pokmon League. Dollface (Banette) @ Banettite - Waterfall - Ice Beam Ability: Huge Power. Brick Break: Sootopolis City - Quick Attack (starting move). Brick Breaks primary use is to break the screens that Glacias Glalie #1 and Stevens Claydol set up, should it be necessary. Dragon Pulse is your main Dragon type move and is coverage against other Dragons. I don't understand why people wouldn't want to spend money on TM's, if they want to use them, they're going to have to buy them eventually, whether that be during the game, or once they've completed it. - Supersonic (starting move) > Confuse Ray (Level 17) > Fly (HM02 - Route 119) 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. What is a good in-game team for Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald? Cacturne is a great mon, and its Needle Arms do a surprising amount of damage. Surf should be used until you catch a Carvanha on Route 118 and teach it Surf, then you can delete Surf if you so wish by going to the Move Deleter in Lilycove City. Thunderbolt is a great move and fits better with the Mirror Coat set. Just don't use against a Grass type. - Volt Tackle / Discharge - Poison Jab Swampert does well in Hoenn because there are very few required battles against Grass Pokmon. Leaf Blade- Good power, STAB X-Scissor and Flamethrower are also coverage, and Swords Dance is to set up. - Headbutt, Hoenn = Linoone Roserade is here to deal with Water types when the Ralts evo of the team can't. Coil: Boost Attack to sweep. Swampert predicts storms by sensing subtle differences in the sounds of waves and tidal winds with its fins. Can deal with Psychics with Dark Pulse and X-Scissor. This is much more reliable than gambling on random encounters, and its often a large timesaver. Anyway, Kecleon may seem like an odd choice, but it is surprisingly solid. Route 119 Rival: Like before, Wailmer and Slugma should fall easily to Manectric and Marshtomp respectively. Ice Beam and Flamethrower are fairly late in the game, but you could wait or substitute with another move of your choice. While Weezing might not be as good as Aggron or Skarmory, I already had a Steel-type, so I decided Weezing would be a good addition to the team. After clearing four Gyms in a row with no new members, we head to 111 and catch a Trapinch! Fly to the Move Relearner in Fallarbor Town, and use a Heart Scale to relearn Dragon Dance, which will be crucial in setting up sweeps against Phoebe, Drake, and Steven. Quick Attack is primarily used to conserve PP on more powerful moves, and to break Sturdy on specific Pokemon. A great Pokemon that adds to this teams diversity, Psychic and Moonblast are STAB. - Earthquake - Leaf Storm / Leaf Blade Altaria is my favorite Dragon type you can obtain in Hoenn (Besides Flygon). But anyways, Swampert is a great pick because he fills the spot for the Water HM user and he has a great movepool. Ability: Marvel Scale / Oblivious - Boomburst I hear Froslass is bad because it requires babying a weak Snorunt for a long time. 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). Actually camperupt has 5 more SpAttack than Attack. Swampert is a great Poke in its own right, with a solid movepool, great Attack, and only one weakness. - Ice Beam But then it will have a very low level and need a lot of experience before it becomes useful. Flygon is the powerhouse of the team (it's worth training up Trapinch). - Fake Out (Level 10) Please follow these guidelines regarding detail in your post:. Linoone = Pick Up Second of all I have some changes you can make. - Psychic Close Combat: Powerful STAB move - Thunderbolt. Route 118 is also the location you get the Good Rod. - Acrobatics - Giga Drain Strength will be the main move used until Aqua Tail is learned. Nasty Plot to sharply raise Special Attack and Will-O-Wisp to inflict burns (and take less physical damage). - Hex. Ice Beam As for the last two slots, it's up to preference. So Energy Ball is STAB, Dragon Claw is STAB as a mega and Earthquake and Rock Slide cover all other weaknesses. Swampert is the HM slave, but he has powerful enough moves that he can get you out of sticky situations as well. Shadow Ball and Thunderbolt or Energy Ball are coverage, or you can use Calm Mind to set up. Yawn / Earthquake: Yawn if you can be bothered breeding it. - Shadow Claw This is a in-game team, it doesn't need to set up. Pickup is super useful as well, hence why it has no item. - Surf / Dive as it is needed for the story mode. - Flash Canon Earthquake: Seafloor Cave, right before the final evil team leader battle, you can't miss it People may not like spending money on TMs, and Stone Edge isn't too reliable either. [emailprotected] @Mega Stone/Filler I won't bother listing the locations of these HM's, since their necessary to complete the game anyway. Waterfall and Earthquake are accurate STAB. Swampert + Hariyama + Manectric + Absol + Gardevoir + Crobat This team, for starters, has a lot of possible mega-evolutions, so that's always fun! Blaziken is my personal favorite of the Hoenn starters, and his Mega is amazing, so why not? - Ice Beam Lilycove City Rival: Swellow and Wailord fall to Manectric, and Magcargo goes down to Swampert. Very fast, with high Special Attack but low defenses. - Dragon Claw - Psycho Cut Swampert: Mud Fish Pokmon 3 Attack Height Weight Gender Egg Group(s) 4'11" 1.5m 180.6 lbs. TM Thunderbolt: Mauville City (help Wattson clean up New Mauville) Swampert is a great starter becuase its only weakness is Grass. 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. 1. Ah, the evolution to the infamous Pikablu. You can also take on Winona with Stone Edge, but it is not recommended. Ability: Soundproof Finally an early Earthquaker! TM Ice Beam: Sea Mauville Rock Slide: On a small island on Route 134 Waterfall Cut Ability: Flash Fire You're going to need an Electric type. I prefer Frenzy Plant to Leaf Storm because it has a higher base power, and so a higher chance to OHKO the opponent. Ideally, this is the Pokemon you want Ninjask to Baton Pass to. If it's male, I use Gallade, and if it's female, I use Gardevoir. The best team for Pokemon Emerald with Swampert Swampert Image via The Pokemon Company Swampert is the mainstay of this team, as the final evolution of the Water-type starter. Fly Zen Headbutt is solid filler coverage, and Earthquake is Earthquake! Item: Black Glasses I would recommend Protean as it gives him STAB on every attack, but Colour Change is still useful in a lot of cases. - Needle Arm - Rock Slide. Ability: Shell Armor I'm too lazy to put all the locations for the Pokmon, items and TM moves, so you can just go and look it up on the DB or somethingidk. Surf is needed quite a bit, but Dive and Waterfall really aren't, so they can safely be switched for one another at any given time. Earthquake is Earthquake, no explanation needed. - Hidden Power (TM) / Flash (TM) / Thunder Wave (TM)*. - Boomburst / Hyper Voice - Swords Dance / X-Scissor. - Cut But if you do, I would certainly recommend it. What is a good in-game team for Sun and Moon? Return: Pacifidlog Town - Confuse Ray. 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. Sceptile. 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. Manectric was not brought onto the team until the 6th Gym, where it started to shine the most. There are others moves you could use here, like Sunny Day or Amnesia. - Giga Drain - Magical Leaf - Crunch Ability: Blaze - Hypnosis - Magic Coat - Leaf Storm (Move Reminder) Linoone @ any item Magical Leaf is good for Rock types and Water types. It can stand on its three-toed feet with a hunched posture, and pick up or grab objects with its hands, but when moving about it tends to run . - Dragon Claw - Earthquake - Draining Kiss - Surf TM70 Flash can be obtained in Granite Cave. *TM51 Steel Wing can be found in Granite Cave. - Knock Off - Overheat (TM) Swampert for water HMs and Earthquake. Dragon Pulse / Dive: Dragon Pulse for coverage or Dive for another HM. - Strength Victory Road Wally: Gyarados Ice Fang takes care of Altaria. Lenny (Linoone) @ Nothing Acrobatics is by far the strongest STAB move, with 110 BP per turn (provided Crobat isnt holding anything). Ability: Synchronize / Trace --> Pixilate Sceptile - Grass (Mega Sceptile - Grass/Dragon) It receives. Ability: Guts Swampert: Starter (Mudkip) You could also go with Alakazam but I just love Gardevoir. - Flamethrower - Sky Uppercut / High Jump Kick For all the people who just love Magcargo or Torkoal, I choose Camerupt due to type advantages. I don't like putting HMs on my main party Pokemon, so when I need an HM I'll switch someone (usually Ninetales) out for an HM slave like Linoone or Sharpedo. Night Slash- Decent power, covers Ghost weakness. - Earthquake: TM26 from Seafloor Cavern beneath Route 128. Route 110 Rival: Slugma and Wailmer both fall to Marshtomp, but Grovyle is more of an issue. 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. Manectric is only able to deal with Winona and Wallace with Thunderbolt, and Glacia with Flamethrower. - Fly [emailprotected] Expert Belt - Fire Fang Magnezone - Dark Pulse - Zen Headbutt / Psychic Rocky Helmet is a good generic item, but it needs a few specific berries against the Elite 4. - Moonblast Ability: Thick Fat Psychic is STAB. - Psycho Cut Sceptile is easily taken care of with Crobats Acrobatics. - Steel Wing - High Jump Kick Banette is probably better. Mega-Pokmon adds a great boost to Pokmon. Ideally, comment on more than just the four moves you'll . - Leer (starting move) > Volt Switch (TM72 - Obtained after defeating Wattson) With Skill Link, Bullet Seed becomes one of the best Grass-type moves out there, and Earthquake is a standard. Roserade @Miracle Seed/Black Sludge/Filler As good as any other Pokemon are, Mega Heracross is a flat out boss. - Thunderbolt. - Hyper Voice. Gallade It can even learn Blizzard or Ice Beam to deal with Grass Pokemon by itself, but it isn't. Weezing is underrated, Im glad you added it onto the team. - Surf. 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. The Flash Fire ability is underrated, but if you can pick up Drought do so. While it has mediocre attacking stats (70/80 respectively), it does have access to 3 HM moves and nice typing to cover both Sceptile and Linoone's weaknesses. I like how you added altaria to the team, altaria is one of my favorites. Ability: Thick Fat Hariyama easily removes Magneton and Delcatty, and Gardevoir can come in to clean up Roselia and Gallade. When navigating around tight bends, where if you go too fast you'll end up on the shore, that is when having a normal speed surfer pays off. - Psycho Cut - Thunderbolt: TM24 after New Mauville quest If you really want to, you can replace Headbutt with Surf for another HM move, or Shadow Claw for better coverage. Shadow Ball for other STAB, and Confuse Ray just to be annoying. - Fly. If Manectric has a good Hidden Power type such as Ice, Grass or Water, keep Hidden Power as your main move, otherwise discard it. - Leaf Blade - Rock Slide, Swords Dance- Most of the useful moves Sceptile can learn are physical. I also used a Metagross, but you can't get that easily anymore. - Cut Ability: Rock Head Gardevoir doesn't have any great abilities, but on a rare occasion Trace can help in some cool ways. - Surf (HM) - Will-O-Wisp [emailprotected] But now I do, and this Pokmon takes great advantage of its great ability: Huge Power. Focus Blast is Steel coverage and Thunderbolt is extra coverage for other types. Yay, swampert! Camerupt Manectric @ Magnet / Life Orb Aggron - Steel/Rock I'm about to challenge the E4 while writing this: Cuddles (Swampert) @ Swampertite Leaf Blade/Thunderbolt. Rock Slide is a powerful coverage option that works as a good backup against Winona, should Manectric fall. Glacia: Hariyama OHKOes both Glalie (and Walrein with Close Combat after a Fake Out), so the only annoyances are the Froslass. - Tackle (starting move) > Rock Slide (Level 28) - Rock Smash, Cut: HM - Water Gun (starting move) > Surf (HM obtained after defeating Norman) Linoone is always in the party, as he is my HM Slave, however he is never used in battle. - Strength. - Fly This is the newest addition to the team. Sludge Wave is also good for the Grass types, along with Ice Beam. - Volt Switch. (Did I ever mention that Intimidate is a fantastic ability? Giga Drain is learnt by the prior evolution, I think. Crobat - Poison/Flying - Shadow Ball Before you ask why I have two Megas on this team, I Mega Evolve a different one depending on the situation. Ability: Inner Focus 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. - Extrasensory / Shadow Ball. - Rock Slide / Stone Edge. Dive - Cross Poison - Flare Blitz / Blaze Kick - Psychic Manectric is the best Electric type available in my opinion. Surf: STAB and an HM. This is a list of major battles the team will have to contend with. Since I decided to play through the game with the Exp. I have a soft spot for Treecko. Changed my team according to the suggestions. This is for a standard team, so just pick Mudkip. Swampert is the aforementioned starter that's an absolute beast in competitive matches and can carry teams in PVE. Flash Cannon- Good power, STAB Ice Beam: Good against Grass types. - Leech Seed Tentacruel @ Black Sludge - Signal Beam It has a high Special Attack stat, and good Special Defense and Speed. Rock Slide is another option and covers most of his weaknesses, but Earthquake is just overall better due to its higher power and accuracy. - Rock Slide / Hidden Power [Water]. - Earthquake Ability: Overgrow - Cut, Sableye Gardevoir @ anything - Double Hit - Fly Your call. - Fly Best Team for Hoenn ft. Zeldawars MysticUmbreon 581K subscribers Join Subscribe 27K 2.7M views 6 years ago Hey guys welcome to the Best Team For Hoenn. Power-Up Punch is better just because it will always raise Attack and is 100% accurate. This makes it a great defensive lead for a team that needs a reliable entry hazard setter. - Water Pulse 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. - Earthquake. The other HM Slave of the team, your game's respective Lati Twin. - Flamethrower Best part? - (filler move). - Close Combat Any good alternatives to moonblast? Of course this doesn't always work, but the moveset I run on Ninetales highlights its strengths and covers my team pretty well. Frost Breath is better in most cases, because it'll be 120 STAB rather than 90, bar random Shell Armour Pokemon. - Roost - Fake Out / Focus Blast, Jolteon @ Air Balloon Ability: Levitate Share your best in-game teams for Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire on this thread! Every team needs that tank that makes everyone mad when it endures everything you throw at it. TM10 Hidden Power can be obtained in Fortree City. - Steel Wing Exploud is a decent Pokmon with stats that tend to lean towards the Special Attack. - Flash Cannon 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). Knock Off: Covers Hariyama's Psychic weakness and removes items. - Giga Drain. - Dragon Pulse: from Battle Resort Move Tutor for 12BP Alright, so this will be your starter obviously. TM42 Faade can be purchased in Mauville City for 10,000 Pokmon Dollars. Other moves are pretty standard. So this comes very early on in the game. Bellossom - Leaf Blade Gyarados is an exceptionally useful Pokmon ingame. - Flamethrower Steven: Lead Manectric into Skarmory, and Quick Attack to break Sturdy before KOing with Discharge. It has enough power to easily drag a boulder weighing more than a ton. Spam Surf on Swampert, which Gyarados resists, and use Crunch with Gyarados on either Pokemon. Steel Wing- Covers Rock and Ice weaknesses - Thunderbolt - Steel Wing If you recommend a Pokemon that is restricted by version exclusivity, trade evolution or events, please, Do not recommend Pokemon, moves, etc. Raichu @ Air Balloon - Dazzling Gleam / Will-O-Wisp. Gardevoir is a great special attacker with an amazing movepool. Ability: Clear Body After it was of no use to me, I taught it Hidden Power again. - Dragon Pulse - Growl (starting move) > Mud Shot (Level 16) > Brick Break (TM31 - Sootopolis City). Ability: Frisk Because it is.) Brick Break/Dazzling Gleam - Thunderbolt - Metal Sound. Rock Slide: It's a great coverage move for two of Mega Sceptile's weaknesses. - Fly - Waterfall. Close Combat: Great coverage move. - Earthquake Ninetales @ Charcoal With access to Swords Dance, it could be a potential sweeper. Ability: Torrent :), This team features not one, but two HM slaves, to allow the rest of the team to fire on all cylinders. Some other Pokemon were used for some of these battles, and those instances will be noted with alternatives. You can teach Blaziken Flare Blitz and High Jump Kick by going to the Move Reminder and exchanging one Heart Scale per move.
