Hymdall Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Right, so in preparation for Episode 15, I've been trying to get as many Pokemon as I can for my reserves. I'm probably gonna be sticking with my 2nd playthrough file, which means I need Fighting and Ground resists. For those wondering, the main 6 are thus Typhlosion Metagross Golem Gardevoir Scrafty Vaporeon I don't have much in reserves currently, but what I do have is Clefable, Lucario, and Ninetails. As you can see, I kind of get vehemently destroyed by Ground(lord knows I got lucky against Terra). Any tips on things to pick up to patch up my weaknesses?

dondon151 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Gengar, Weezing, Claydol, and Mismagius resist ground and fighting without being weak to rock, which usually complements those types. Flygon to a lesser extent. Most grass types also resist ground without being weak to rock. I forget if all of these Pokemon are currently available.

AuthorReborn Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I would recommend Ludicolo for a Ground resist. It learns Giga Drain and Hypro Pump via level up and I believe you can breed Ice Beam onto it via Episode 12-. It packs a punch and can take out a lot of things if you have it in the rain. For Fighting resist, don't use a Ghost as most Fighting types pack Dark Type moves anyway. Use something such as Gardevoir, whose Fairy Typing resists Dark and Fighting and is immune to Dragon. Gardvoir has no real fear of Dark or Fighting moves and can pack a punch in turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weezing and Flygon were high on my list of "Maybes". Lots of good moves there, and relatively easy to train. Also Weezing just laughs at physical attacks so..

Yeah, I have Gardevoir on my team already. Estelle is a freaking POWERHOUSE. Ludicolo wasn't something I really thought of. I'll have to look into Ep 12 breeding...hoo boy that's gonna be a lot of time investment. Time to do research! Thank you both~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helia Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 (edited) A Whimsicott maybe? Resists both ground and fighting, while the prankster ability helps stunning foes/setting up a sub/sleep powder, and handing out quite the wallops with Moonblast and Giga Drain.
