Tempo17 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 So back when version 6 first came out my save file got corrupted and that killed any motivation for me to restart from the very beginning, especially since I had just EV trained a good 15 pokemon 8-9 of which I was planning on putting on a rotation with my main team depending on the situation. But since break has started I decided to give it another chance since version 7 is coming out soon. Keep in mind that I have not started version 6 yet but I am planning to once I catch up story-wise. My current team: Greninja Infernape Tangrowth Noivern Mawile Toxicroak* I really wanted to switch out toxicroak with something else since its main stab, revenge, has a minus priority and its best hitting move is zen headbutt. So keeping in mind that I have not played version 6 yet are there any good pokemon that could replace toxicroak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowStar Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Nidoking / Nidoqueen would work well on your team given that you don't have a Ground - Type and they could cover Toxicroak's Poison STAB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimTim Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) Another decent poison type replacement is Drapion, which you can obtain as Skorupi in Sheridan wetlands(if i am not mistaken), it has a considerable defense and Hone Claws to boost attack and boast only one weakness ground, and also imagine the prowess of crits from Sniper Drapion+Night Slash.

Veterans Zumi Posted January 4, 2016 Veterans Share Posted January 4, 2016 if you want a really good poison typed glass cannon though, you should go for Crobat. Acrobatics, confuse ray, poison fang and air slash (or hypnosis/brave bird by breeding) will make a LOT of fights later on much easier due to that it outspeeds almost everything, making it easy to confuse others and having a chance of inflicting toxic poison with poison fang, while acrobatics literally destroys everything considering crobat's attack stat is ridiculous. the only thing is that it's a real glass cannon, so it can usually only survive one hit if a move is super effective. it can easily inflict status effects before you can give the other a chance to do any damage though because of its speed, so make use of that.
