Gym Leader Battle Walkthrough


Antares

Recommended Posts

For Charolett, I used a simply strat and killed her off in one try.

Open with Greninja w/ Rain Dance (any Poke with rain dance that's weak to grass and faster than Typlosion will work here) and Archeops with Rock Slide. Typlosion attempts to Solar Beam Greninja and gets outsped, allowing the rain to get up and active the rainbow field. Ninetails takes serious damage from the Rock Slide and then I switch Greninja to Pyroar, whose STAB normal type moves get a buff in the rainbow field. Archeops will finish off both of her leads and then Pyroar uses Hyper voice or strength (I have strength just for utility atm, but I'm going to relearn Hyper Voice soon enough). If Archeops falls, send out Flygon and Rock Slide some more. Fool proof.

Below you will find information regarding important battles during the game. The information will cover general information, what Pokemon each trainer has, and some strategies that can be used to defeat said trainer. Any of the gym leader battles as well as any boss/admin type battle are included in this list. That means that rival battles involving Victoria, Cain, or Fern have been omitted.

Also, sorry for all the posts. This is a lot of info and definitely won't fit in one post.

NOTE: Details mostly haven't been included yet due to the length it took to create this whole list. It will be updated by the end of the week. Also, I don't know why all of the info isn't aligned properly. It looks fine in editing. I'll look into it later.

But first, there’s a few things that I want to mention.

I haven't decided if I am going to include details of Admin battles since most people don’t seem to have many problems with them. Only the ones that people get stuck on (such as Aster & Eclipse in Route 3) will have details on how to beat them. If you want me to put information regarding every battle, let me know. I’m just trying to save myself some time atm.

Also, this is not 100% correct. Just like the Pokemon Location guide, this will be updated every now and then. I have made some assumptions on certain battles because I could not fish out a particular move or ability that I needed. Please let me know if something is wrong and I will fix it. Mainly held items were kind of a pain to figure out unless it was leftovers..

Hopefully this will reduce the amount of questions brought up on the forums.

Hmm... if memory serves me correctly we already have one of these.

http://www.pokemonreborn.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=10408

Granted it's not as comprehensive as this, but I don't really want to let Antares' idea die either. I might merge the two topics if that's ok?

Also, as this is a lot of work, I'd probably wait until the game is finished before doing it, as gym leaders frequently change their teams and movesets. I don't see a lot of point in doing it before hand, but ultimately I'm not going to stop you doing what you want to either.

Edit: Also you've got Boss 11 down twice.

Sorry haven't been able to post as of late. Combo of training for the YCS, Obtaining Super Smash for the 3DS and boatloads of AP homework have left my schedule packed. This should be finished by November 10-13

Pulse abra is a tricky one, having a type that is resistant to dark helps; and heres how.

Get a pokemon like steelix w/ crunch, or someone with sturdy and a super effective move. lead with that. abra should take 2 turns to kill it, 3 if it uses hyper beam on the first move

If he uses hyper beam to finish it, send in a really strong dark or bug type, and nail him with your best move. If not, send out a type resistant to dark, like a fairy type. This will trick the AI into using hyper beam, so that he has to recharge, allowing you to send out your really strong bug / dark type, and get good damage off on him. After you get the 1 free hit, switch back out to a waster pokemon, let him tank a hit. Only send out your real damage dealer when abra has to recharge from hyper beam.

make sure to save beforehand and use f12 to soft reset for better RNG (something I've been quite fond of in my monotype steel run)

he only uses dark pulse on my team (Torterra, Gardevoir, Escavelier, Medicham, dusklops,arcanine)

only torterra can take a hit from his dark pulse but one EQ is not enough to kill abra

any idea with pokemon i could train up to deal more damage? cant get steelix, i have no link stone

Onix would work just fine, the main thing is the sturdy. Abra will almost ALWAYS use dark pulse on gardevoir, magnezone, and escavelier.

Train escavelier to level cap, he MIGHT be able to tank 1 hit and get an attack off

At the flower shop in lapis? ward you can get a free fairy type, abra will use hyper beam on that 90% of the time

Get an onix, and train it to at least 31 so that it learns screech (harshly lowers defense). It will be able to get 1 screech off gauranteed due to sturdy

Catch a magnemite in shade's factory until you get one with sturdy (they can have it)

level it to somewhere in the 30s so it learns screech

use both of the screeches to pretty much floor the abra's already lowish defense.

Send torterra out, and get one EQ off, it should deal a LOT more damage now, because it hits physically

Once it dies, send the fairy type out, and pray to RNGesus that abra uses hyper beam

While abra is recovering, send Escavalier out and 1 shot that little bugger with X-Scissor, Escavaliers high attack and abra's now-super-low defense should let you kill it.

If abra uses hyper beam anywhere above, like on onyx, get another screech off. If he uses it on torterra, get another EQ off. You should be able to kill him with that strategy, if that doesn't work tell me and we can think of something else :P

P.S. If magnezone knows screech, you can use an ability capsule (maybe?) to give him sturdy. That's your choice though

Go for it! If that doesnt work then get the fairy type and use it too with escavalier as a backup, and you should have it!

Honestly, I got it using steelix w/ iron tail to lower defense, then magneton with metal sound to lower spec def, Empoleon with bubblebeam, the fairy type, then take out 75% of his health with x-scissor from escavalier.

Well, there are a few ways to beat him

First, its not an actual arceus, its a ditto. Therefore, all of his moves only have 5 PP. Buy cotton candy, and basically stall out until he has no moves left to use

Secondly, you could get a quick claw and a wynaut/kricketune, and use perish song or destiny bond

Third, you don't have to beat him. If you side with El, then you can lose the fight and the story will continue, you won't lose any money or anything, but you wont get the experience. Don't worry about the exp though, he doesnt give a ton of it
