Damage Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Hello all. Its far from now but I have a grass team as the title suggests and every other mon has chlorophyll. Makes for a solid ability in the sun. I thought about how to counter fire mons especially charlotte when it hit me that Abomasnow has snow warning which (I think) tones down fire moves. Not enough to save the day but can give me breathing room against fire opponents. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampellow Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Always Lotad. Tangrowth also has VERY good physical defense and should be able to take at least 1 field boosted physical fire move if trained properly and then retaliate with ancient power. Cradily functions similar to Tangrowth just on the special side, although its SpD isn't as high as one would wish, but it does have access to Ancient Power+Brine naturally and other useful moves via TM/Breeding. Also any pokemon that learns Rain Dance in any way, off the top of my head Amoonguss, Roselia, and Gogoat all learn it by TM, with Budew learning water sport as well.

SkyRunner Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Hail doesn't tone down Fire-type attacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Felix Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Abamasnow will die to any sort of fire attack, regardless of the weather. And Hail does not weaken fire moves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quickslip Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Also, Roserade can get Weather Ball if you burn a Heart Scale, which is wicked in the Rain. Chickorita is available at that point I think, and it has decent speed and learns Light Screen and Reflect which may or may not buy you enough time to do whatever else you need to do to win.

Damage Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 Well shoot. Snowman is off the team again. Cradily is a necessity on a grass team. Or a rock team. I was looking at tangrowth but that speed is looking real suspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlado Vladimir Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 I honesstly don't think you will ever beat her with your own Sun team (specially if ithe majority of it is Grass type).... the best way to beat her imo is to catch a Horsea and evolve it into Kingdra (you have to be patient, cause you'll need a Dragon Scale) I suggest you get one with the Swift Swim ability, it should beat at least 3 of her pokemon if they are about the same level...pair it with a good Rock Type and you should be good to go Ludicolo is another good option and it is a grass type Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 Never say never my friend. Chesnaught was on the field with my magneton against her my first time fighting her. When she had two ninetails. Magneton died then others switched in. Chesnaught never left. His special def is atrocious. The problem is just getting her first mons paralyzed then setting up. If I can find some mons to cripple for the setup she can go down like all the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 I was thinking Liligant since it was such a monster last time I used it but I spent the last hour and a half mining to get a sun stone and nothing. I'm gonna roll with Leafeon since better coverage and far superior defense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 well did you use you free sun stone which byxbysion grotto? if so well good luck mining for 1 since it is all RNG and luck for mining. also what did you use the sun stone on. Don't tell me you used it to get a sunflora or bellossom they are not worth the sun stone. but if you used it on a cottonee to get whimsicott well kinda worth i guess but yeah. well as of now leafeon does not get much since there are not many TMs and move tutor. i would rather use a leavanny since it is kinda the same as a leafeon but the problem with leavanny is its X4 weakness to fire.it has better coverage than leafeon right now and it also get stab bug type moves.
