Lord C Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I am currently leveling a Ratatta in the Day Care for him to learn Endeavor, so that I can cross with a Phanpy to breed two Donphans with Sturdy and Endeavor (the second in case he uses Hyper Potion or something [i'm theorizing he has Rough Skin, which would kill off the Donphans) and use my Meowstic's Fake Out to finish it off. I am wondering however, what other possible means could have been used to deal with the hammerhead dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krim Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Pretty sure I used focus sash destiny bond the first time, although that was quite some time ago. The way I remember best was when I did it in mono-dark. 5 Prankster Purrloins with Sand Attack, 1 Crawdaunt with swords dance. GG Garchomp.

Cyanna Cyril Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I used Balloons, Curse, Will-o-Wisp, and Flame Burst damage. Stacking all of that damage made it completely possible to overcome that fierce foe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krim Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Hey, you take what you can get in monotypes. And I actually like Purrloin a lot so using it outside of fodder was kind of nice. Even if they did faint right after their intended purpose was finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amanojaku Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Air Balloon Perish Song Jigglypuff, Garchomp can't touch it at all since Essentials' dumb AI will force it to spam Earthquake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironbound Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Curse or Dbond Cofagrigus is fat enough to take any one hit. If you breed it with a +Def nature and decent IVs and max out its EVs in physical bulk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartar Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 The easiest (and cheesiest) way of going about is using a prankster Murkrow with Perish Song. Otherwise a Fairy type with Air Balloon is the way to go, since it'll keep spamming Earthquake over and over. In general there are lots of ways for defeating the thing.

kalzone678 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I fluked the heck out of this thing, and i am so proud of what i did. I used nature power with my Quick Claw Sceptile, got Heat wave, and burned garchomp. Then i switched to Azumarill, then i switched to Noivern, then back to Azumarill and so on. This was to block incoming earthquakes and dragon claws . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sound of silence Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Easiest way to cheese the fight is with a sturdy sawk from pyrous mountain that has counter in its movepool. Give it enough HP EV's and counter should be able to one shot garchomp provided the moronic AI doesn't use stone edge.Otherwise I prefer to switch through intimidate 'mons to get it to -6 atk and then stall out with leech seed.

DemICE Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 most recent, 2 prankster purrloins, 1 golurk with curse, and it just died with serperior tanking forever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJWongTong Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 First time I did it with my regular team I just kept sending out mightyena and sacrificing other team members. I finally used sand attack on it until my Mightyena died and then sent out Slurpuff who proceeded to use cotton guard and spam draining kiss.

Developers Voctrode Posted September 13, 2016 Developers Share Posted September 13, 2016 obviously the easiest way to kill it is to prankster sand attack it to -6, use mist to create misty terrain, use smog to turn the misty terrain into corrosive mist and then blow up the mist to one shot it.....................

Bin553 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Beat it with having a seel with focus sash start the fight and perish song it. The seel was lvl one, from the egg gotten in the Daycare quest , was lucky it came with perish song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hect Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 (edited) Curse Yamask, Focus Sash and Swagger.. I'm not even ashamed. Edited September 13, 2016 by Lagspike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord C Posted September 14, 2016 Author Share Posted September 14, 2016 Holy shit... all you guys make me feel like a noob. All the more because my original strategy failed (partly due to Leftovers, partly due to more Full Restores than I anticipated, partly because I was too lazy to train a second Donphan) Either way, I used two pokemon with sturdy: Graveller and a Donphan (this one with Endeavor). Opened with Graveller and used Self-Destruct, which set the volcanic field in fire. Next Donphan used Endeavor and Garchomp died due to the burned field.

Kami no Varou Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Believe it or not, I came here in the first place to confirm you were indeed supposed to loose against him. I'm on my first run, I didn't know at all I'd encounter a lv. 75 Garchomp I was supposed to loose against, so I didn't prepare anything, and I beat him on first attempt. ^^' How ? With a lucky Curse, because he missed my Cofagrigus ^^' Then a Sturdy Forretress + Self-destruct to speed up the process a bit, and just stalling. I assumed you were supposed to loose against it because at the end of the fight, things happened as if I had lost - and by logic anyway, no way you can ask a player to beat this at this point of the game with pokemon under lv. 45 *_* Well now I know I was supposed to loose. Guess I'm not one to do as I'm said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimstringer Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 i find that endeavor./curse feel like cheating vs the boss monsters, i won the muk fight first try,this one too maybe they should be immune to these type of stuff :/ i might stop using them i feel like a cheater their huge healthpool has no point destiny bond should be in the list too i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defeating a single boss mon is quite easy if you're prepared for it. Power split, Power swap, toxic, poison fang, fling, endeaver, curse, destiny bond, perish song, subseed, ... the list is longer but what is considered skill and what is considered cheese?

rakky Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Must say I didn't beat him, but if I'd start over, I think I'd get a quick claw from the sandshrews under the grand staircase and give it to a pokemon with destiny bond.

Personthing Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Intimidate Stoutland + Baby Doll eyes. -2 attack the first turn it comes out, and then I just kept spamming baby doll eyes until it had -6 attack. Helps that baby doll eyes has priority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
