POKEMON

Yes, she's grass. And in the anime that gym creates perfumes from the glume and vileplume's scents, which team rocket of course tries to steal.

Team Rocket tries to steal it by cleverly disguising Ash as Ashley >.>

Okay, I have to say, with a staggering 147 base attack, Haxorus is broken. I say this because it also has access to Dragon Dance and Swords Dance, a STAB Outrage, and a conditionally ATK boosting ability. It's going to OHKO 95% of the pokemon in the game without a boost, and everything after a single Swords Dance.


And after Swords Dance:


Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if it was made uber. I mean, it doesn't have the greatest speed, but at 97 it's more than decent. Not a whole lot is going to be able to OHKO it in time, and that's what you'd have to do: get out something with a superior speed and OHKO it before it does it to you.

She has a Vileplume, and in Pokemon Adventures she has a Tangela and in Pokemon: Electric Tale of Pikachu she has a Weepinbel and in the anime she has a Gloom and oh gosh

and oh gosh..?

LOL the first time I saw Weepinbell in the game I was like, WTF is with this name?

@Mr.Moonbeam, there's such a thing as a damage calculator?! It sure looks complex.

[Jadecavy]

There are a couple damage calculators, but the only ones I've found for Gen 5 are this one and an excel spreadsheet. They changed the formulas up, so it's different. I play quite a bit competitively (or I did a few months ago), so I'm pretty familiar with the common EV sets, and unless you're going for a particular type of hidden power, IVs are always 31. It's not that bad if you know what you're doing.

Damage Calculator? Shit's gonna get serious now.

[Jadecavy]

There have been damage calculators since gen one. But I was wrong, Haxorus isn't a wallbreaker. It can't easily get around skarmory, ferrothorn, slowbro, hippo, forro, etc. But it's a decent physical sweep, other than its average speed.

[spano33]

yeah, duh, there have been damage calcs since gen 1, where'd this guy come from

[BasharOfTheAges]

Thanks to you guys I pulled out the old R4 and got it working with Black. This might be fun.

[AimoAio]

Never used a damage calculator before.I was more interested in seeing what moves would 1 hit KO the opponent tbh.

Oh, something worth mentioning was my lil bro had managed to dig out our old GameBoy Colour with Poke Red(Blue was lost somewhere D:) We had some epic times discussing how awesome the graphics looked back then() and how useful the rare candy glitch was. (Lv100 everything FTW )

Though one thing I really hated about those old retro games was that horrible ghost tower were you needed special glasses to see ghosts. It gave me and my brother nightmares when we were kids. BAD MEMORIES.
