item:charcoal
flamethrower
fire punch
fly(might replace with something like sunny day or wing attack)
fire blast

*gasp* Replace fire blast with rock slide, fire punch with swords dance, (I think it can learn that) and replace fly with wing attack. Remove charcoal and give it lefties.


item:none
rest
sleep talk
snore(i think thats wut its called )
metronome

This entire set depends on you sleeping. (it can learn metronome?!) Give it surf, EQ, ice beam, and rest for a mixed sweeper. Also attach a mint berry.


item:dire hit
solar beam
sunny day
sleep powder
toxic

I didn't know 1 use stat enhancers activate when you hold them...
Synthesis over sleep powder and you'r fine. Though you could give it HP *fire* over toxic as well. Lefties as the item.


item:charcoal
flamethrower
fire punch
thunder punch
sunny day

Get rid of fire punch and charcoal, give it rest and a mint berry instead.


item:quick claw
slash
surf
thunder punch
fire punch

Get rid of quick claw for lefties, and give it a special move over slash if you want a special sweeper, or use slash, EQ, rest, and body slam for a physical sweeper.


item:dire hit
sunny day
solar beam
razor leaf
dig

If your not strategetic, give it the same moveset as venesaur and remove dire hit for lefties, or remove razor leaf for body slam and dig for EQ.

I didn't check if these pokemon can learn the moves I suggested, I kindof guessed.

Smeargle

Bide
Taunt
Swagger
Recover

You are most likely wondering why I have used Bide as one of my attacks, well the idea is this, you use Swagger to confuse and raise your opponents Attack Power, then you use Taunt so your enemy can only use Attack moves and then you use Bide, which means that either the enemy will damage itself during its confusion or if it does hit you, then when the Bide kicks in the damage will be doubled. The Recover is used to replace some of the lost HP in the process.

That looks like a good idea, but maybe rest over recover and attach a mint to get it up to full HP.

The mint might be a good idea but personally, unless I have the Early Bird ability or sleeping attacks like Snore or Sleeptalk, I find that Rest tends to make you sleep for too long as when I have used it before, I tend to sleep too long unless you keep a lot of awakenings with you.

Smeargle has bad stats, so it doesn't often last very long. I was just thinking it would help to make it last as long as possible. Maybe if you have a pokemon use sunny day beforehand, then put a weather recovory move there instead.

EDIT: Or you could use:

@lefties
~Swagger
~Bide
~Sunny Day (+ PP ups)
~Synthesis (+PP ups)

I posted this team a while ago and nobody rated it. Could somebody please rate it.

I did rate that team before. Look a couple of posts up and you'll see it.

Wrong team WPM (though they are strangly similar) its on the 3rd page. Now go get that team rated.

item: King's Rock
moves:
Swords Dance
EQ
Wing Attack
Slash/Return/Body Slam


item: Lefties
moves:
surf
EQ
Ice Beam
Mirror Coat/Counter/Rest

item: Lefties
moves:
Solar Beam
Synthesis
Sunny Day
Body Slam/Sludge Bomb

item: Scope Lens
moves:
How about screech?
bite
slash
Toxic/Surf

Wow, these teams are similar.

Then again people don't choose Smeargle for their stats, the only thing it has going for it is that it can learn every known Pokemon move except for Transform, so while it doesn't have the stats or HP to make a tank or a good Sweeper, it has great potential as a Baton Passer, Annoyer, Imitator, One KO Sniper, Eroder, Group Healer, Suicide Assassin or even an All or Nothing Smeargle .

(Baton Passer)
Baton Pass
Ancientpower (10% of raising Att, Def, Spec Att and Spec Def by 1 Lvl)
Calm Mind
Dragon Dance

Your basic Baton Passer with a powerful weapon that maybe will increase your stats further.

(Annoyer)
Will-O-Wisp
Toxic
Stun Spore
Teeter Dance

You can use this Smeargle to affect any Pokemon with some sort of status effect you like.

(Imitator)
Role Play
Mimic
Mirror Coat
Magic Coat

This one copys the enemies abilities and moves as well as use their own moves against them.

(One KO Sniper)
Lock On
Sheer Cold
Guillotine
Spikes

This one uses Lock On to make sure the 1KO hit connects and the Spikes makes sure that even the enemy escapes, the next one suffers damage.

(Eroder)
Hail
Sandstorm
Ingrain
Spikes

As the Title states, it uses Eroding moves to damage your opponent.

(Group Healer)
Aromatherapy
Heal Bell
Wish
Tri Attack

This Smeargle is made for keeping your Pokemon Team in top nick.

(Suicide Assassin)
Destiny Bond
Mean Look
Whirlwind
Double-Edge

Great for when your opponent has a Pokemon you really REALLY want out of the way and you want to make sure it comes out so you can eliminate it.

(All or Nothing)
Lock On
Fissure
Mean Look
Destiny Bond

As the name suggests, if you cannot take out the opponent's Pokemon with the Lock On/Fissure KOer, You trap them with Mean Look and stick a Destiny Bond on them.

Ahh. The days of G/S/C. I haven't played on Crystal or Gold for a while but my Crystal team was the best that I've ever had. (At least that's what I think).

1) Typhlosion
2) Fereligatr
3) Meganium
4) Ho-oh
5) Mewtwo
6) Suicune

I can't remember there moves but I beat the E4 at least 250 times with them so they must have been good.

the elite four is not at all a good standard for how good ur pokemon is. practically everyone who owns a pokemon game has beaten the elite four (considering its one of the main objectives), but many people have pokemon with bad movesets or abysmal stats.

personally i think stadium 2 pokecup masterball (round2) is the golden standard for testing how good a team is or not, just because the difficulty level is so insane.

considering the smeargles:
because the stats are pretty bad, i think the OHKO moveset with mean look is the best just b/c it brushes all stats aside and ko's pretty fast. fissure and horn drill could cover any immunities and destiny bond or perish song could go nicely as well (just make sure the opponent has no hazing moves to eliminate the mean look). btw arent some of ur moves exclusive to r/s/e? and i believe this is the g/s/c forum...

I must admit that I am not 100% sure if some of my Smeargle moves are from GSC or not, but then again I was using a Pokemon RS site where all the moves were listed and they dont mention if its a new move or not , so you could be right, if you are, then some of my Smeargles are not truely valid, at least not in GSC.

Ones in bold came in RSE,



For a list of GSC attacks, you can check out the page on the site,

http://dynamic3.gamespy.com/~psypoke/gsc/attacks.php

Crikey! It looks like I somehow managed to slip in at least one RS move in each Smeargle... Doh! *lol* well in the newest versions of the Pokemon RPG, they could bring back the Smeargles, you do have to admit at least that all these new moves available, Smeargles have great potentional as specialists in a number of tasks like I demonstrated in my examples above, with their fairly low stats keeping them from becoming too perfect.

Well its true that Smeargles have a huge pool of moves it could learn, but thats the fun part as it allows you to come up with a lot of interesting combinations, the tricky part is taking into account that despite its massive Move Pool, there are a lot of combinations that are not worth using as Smeargles as pretty weak stat-wise so anyone hoping to do well by sticking a bunch of heavy powered attacks together is going to be deeply disappointed with the results.

As for creating a Smeargle topic, that might not a bad idea as the real trick is to design some Smeargle types which people would be gald to have in their group instead of been left out like the hapless Ditto or Unknown.

who likes my politoed.
@mystic water?

-whirlpool
-perish song
-surf
-hypnosis?

Here is my team



*knows Surf thanks to 's Sketch and my Mimic!*

*Same thing as , except instead of Suf, it knows Fly!*

maybe u should post the movesets for ur other pokemon because thats mainly wats being rated...?

and im just curious. how is it again that u get surf on arcanine and fly on raikou??

What you do is teach your Pokemon Mimic, and you get someone else to get a that knows Sketch and the move that you want to teach to your Pokemon. Then you do Mystery Gift with that friend, and make sure that when he does it, that he is only carrying with him, then go to the training building in Viridian City, and save before you battle Cal. Then when you get into the battle, use Mimic, and if uses Sketch then fine, but if he uses the other attack, then turn off your game and keep doing this until he uses Sketch first. Then Mimic should be replaced by Sketch, and the should use the the other attck now, and by using Sketch, Mimic should be permenitly replaced by that attack!

P. S. I don't know why my knew Mimic, but when I caught it, it knew Mimic

Does anybody have a good move set for this team, with one of these Pokemon knowing Rest?








P. S. Please post this so that it something obtainable in the Silver Version, with an exception to , I don
