Competitive Battling Guide: Moves

[bostonmin3]

im a beginner to competitive battling, but i know the pbr electivire won't do good, because its move set is to obvious

im gonna go with magnezone

[teamSDF]

dude your wrong about teh stab thing... its always 1.5 even on dual types

[pyromancer14]

Are you back as Gigatitan?

[Sp1nMaster007]

gay guy.

[pokemonmaster301]

hey nice vid 5/5 and suscribed

[BrallysBrawl]

If I had a Raichu holding a life orb and with the moves charge and volt tackle, how much damage can that do?

[shankadelic007]

volt tackles base power is 120 if im not mistaken + STAB bonus so that makes it 180 then add the Charge making it 360and the life orb bringin it to a total of 468

If i worked it out right

But your biggest problem would be keeping raichu alive

468 seems like alot right?

heh rollout can go over a base power of 1000 all you need is Defence curl

[bicycletx]

0

0.25

0.5

1

2

4 are how much you multiply the damage

[supersolrock]

i have roar of time on my dialga as a last resort move

[gamefreakY]

your channel sais YOU are bored of uploading, but where is ur mate?

i thought you were sharing the account!

[bigfartsmell]

Captain Falcon quote FTW!

[thegreenflashlight]

fourth, hn hn hn hn...fifth!

[wojogamer]

where do i go to find the lists of ubers, OU, UU, etc. also, please have direct link.

[Ruasyvi]

smogon type it in google

[wojogamer]

thank you.

[Akamatsaru]

Still need a bucket hat!

[Mudkip1521]

Superpower can be an extremely useful move on some Pokemon.

[OmegaForceZ]

do items next!

[funman714]

super power is good on a sizor because its way better then brick brake

[NiGHTSUnlimited]

Not necessarily. Brick Break destroys barrier moves like Reflect and doesn't lower the user's Attack and Defense.

[sirplayalot11]

i agree with the other guy,stab is always 1.5 times stronger,despite dual types,:P

great guide though,nonetheless,^_^

cites:serebii,smogon,exp

[destinydood]

100% accuracy= tackle!!!

[ivanman2009]

does badly poisoned cut the foes sp.attack?

[soccermonkey05]

No, being Poisoned doesnt affect any stat.

[LucaS77125]

You forgot 25% in damage anounts for the start

[NiGHTSUnlimited]

You're actually wrong on that. STAB is always a 50% increase, even on the dual-types.

[GigaSonicX]

nope.

[NiGHTSUnlimited]

Yep. According to Psypokes' damage calculator, STAB is always a 50% increase. If you don't believe me, check how much damage a 206 Sp. Def Alakazam takes from a 438 Sp. Atk Kyogre from Hydro Cannon, then do the same, replacing Kyogre and Hydro Cannon with Dialga and Roar of Time.

And yes, I am aware Kyogre cannot learn Hydro Cannon, but the damage calculator doesn't care about that, and I am just giving an example.

Serebii agrees with 50% static increase as well.

[NiGHTSUnlimited]

Bulbapedia also agrees.

[soccermonkey05]

And so do I. It's 1.5 for every Pokemon, even dual-types.

[GigaSonicX]

Hmm, nintendo lies.

[NiGHTSUnlimited]

Well, Nintendo's own guide says that the Chilan Berry cuts damage from a super effective Normal-type attack in half.

[Tyrox1992]

@GigaSonicX wrong! donät make guides when you dont know the "rules"

[MonsterXfan]

so you dont recomend using metronome or 1 hit ko moves  hey how do you raise your accuarcy for 1 hit ko moves

[NiGHTSUnlimited]

No Guard comes to mind. That's probably one of the best ways.

[hellmonkey500]

What pokemon can have No Guard and a OHKO move?

[ninterror]

Machop, Machoke, and Machamp are the only pokemon that have No guard. they don't have any OHKO moves so your out of luck. :P

[NiGHTSUnlimited]

There are none. The idea is to use Machamp and a OHKO attacker together in a Double Battle.

[josiepussy]

use it on lower leveled pokemon. any high levels, it's basically garanteed to miss. Just dont use 'em at all.

[NiGHTSUnlimited]

In Wi-Fi Battles, all Pokémon are the same level, which makes OHKO attacks like Sheer Cold have an accuracy of 30%.

[destinydood]

it has 30% either way..

[NiGHTSUnlimited]

You have proof?

[NiGHTSUnlimited]

First, never call me an idiot. Second, having KO'd 100 out of 100 Lv. 2-5 wild Pokémon with a Lv. 100 Kyogre's Sheer Cold, I'd say I'm right.

[destinydood]

well that i did not know anyway sheer cold usualy has 30 so yeah sorry for calling you an idiot i had no right to

[AtomosWind]

@NiGHTSUnlimited

sheer colds accuracy goes up the lower the opponents pokemon is..

[MonsterXfan]

>( ^ ' .' ^)> kirby and me say your cool

[MonsterXfan]

i dont do specific teams i just use under use pokemon do you win all the time aaron/gigatian beacause your pokemon expert

[RukarioAuraMaster]

Nice guide man. Keep em' up =]. 5/5.

[TECHdrakeD]

awesome guide GT keep em comin!

[PokeGuidesForYou]

i use 12 moves what arent 100% accurate seed flare and stone edge

[ldw95]

Like Capitan Falcon says: Show Me Ya Moves!

[Megatitan101]

oh yeah nice Aarron ^.^

[ebman477]

This is a very good guide. One thing is that I'm fairly certain STAB is 1.5 even for dual-types. My Porygon-Z does have Hyper-Beam. Choice Scarf+150 base power+STAB+great SA=good last resort.

[MaddoxIsWise]

The only thing which isn't neglected when making a crit is burn.

[phoebejoeyspikelynn]

first comment and view yeah xD nice guide ;D
