Blastoise and Charizard: Complete

I think they turned out quite nicely.





A single dragon dance puts Charizard to 225 Speed and 216 Attack. That makes for some mean outrages and flare blitzes.

Blastoise and Charizard

The ever-loved Kanto starters are getting shots on my team.


Blastoise
Adamant
Earthquake, Aqua Jet, Fake Out, Return


Charizard
Adamant
Dragon Dance, Flare Blitz, Outrage, Protect


They are going to be teamed up, since the flying type of Charizard allows Blastoise to use Earthquake when he needs to. My general strategy will be to fake out Charizard's threat and have Charizard Dragon Dance, then proceed to sweep with the two from that point on.

A Dragon Danced Charizard is faster than any unboosted Pokémon, and has the same Attack as my Infernape, basically. Outrage covers all Pokémon but steel-type, which Flare Blitz readily handles in its stead. Flare Blitz has the STAB, though, so I will be using it over Outrage when I can, especially since Outrage locks me in for 2-3 turns plus confusion.

As for items, I am pretty much considering Sitrus Berry for Charizard and Leftovers for Blastoise.

Blastoise has already been bred with the three egg moves (Aqua Jet, Aqua Ring, Fake Out). That was quite a fun adventure, but luckily a Seel can learn or have bred all three of those moves, which made breeding them onto a Squirtle pretty easy.

The fun one will be getting three egg moves onto a Charizard. Charizard can have Dragon Dance and Outrage passed from a Dragonite, which is easy enough, minus the fact that he learns his last one at 55. So first I have to level a MALE Dragonite to 55 for those two moves. Then, I breed those two moves onto a MALE Charmander. I then proceed to level Charmander to level 61 to get Flare Blitz, which then can be transferred by egg to a new Charmander. I will then take that MALE Charizard with Flare Blitz, Outrage, and Dragon Dance but is above level 50, then breed it with my well-loved Ditto until an Adamant Charizard pops out. Superior IVs would be nice, too, but I won't be TOO picky.

Battle Tower + Poopy Pokémon = so fun

Persian
Fake Out
Aerial Ace
Bite
Return

Muscle Band
Delcatty
Fake Out
Double-Edge
Helping Hand
Sucker Punch

Life Orb
Beedrill
Poison Jab
X-Scissor
Brick Break
Aerial Ace

Expert Belt
Furret
Helping Hand
Follow Me
Me First
Return

Focus Sash


Record win streak: 20


Also, if you can't tell, I finally finished Delcatty after about 2 hours mining for blue shards and star pieces. I stuck a life orb on her and it turns out that she can do a mean amount of damage with her fake out. Because she's wearing the life orb it's the same damage as Persian's fake out, so since they both open with it, every opponent's pokémon essentially opens the fight with two Pokémon with somewhere between 30% - 70% health, which is always fun.

Buttcatty


Delcatty
Lv. 50 Female
Nature: Jolly (+Spd, -Sp.Atk)
Ability: Cute Charm (Foes have a 30% chance of being attracted on contact if they are male.)
Moves: Fake Out, Sucker Punch, Helping Hand, Double-Edge
EVs: 255 Attack / 255 Speed

HP: 135/135
Attack: 114
Defense: 76
Sp. Atk: 63
Sp. Def: 74
Speed: 116


Delcatty is, stat-wise, one of the worst fully evolved Pokémon, leagues below even Beedrill. But hey, there's the challenge! I'm still working on getting the Blue Shards for Sucker Punch (I need 4 more). Then, I will be able to test this little Delkitty out.

It is my belief, though, that a Pokémon with Fake Out, and a 120 power stab move (which hits for 180 power at normal effectiveness) is nothing to scoff at. And, in the event that she is in a situation where she is useless (vs. Steel/Rock), then she has a Helping Hand to make her partner even more deadly.

New OU team?

Next on the agenda, which I hope to have finished by the end of fall break, is a [vomit] Trick Room team. Yes, yes, it's shameful, but there is a certain power to it that cannot be denied.

Crrent considerations for team:

Parasect
Bronzong
Rhyperior
Slowbro
Slowking
Snorlax
Marowak

Also, I might need to make my own database for Pokémon stats, since pokegoons is currently out of commission.
