Any more ideas?
and rate!

I never really took into the double battle environment, so some of the stuff I'm about to say might be void.

Thunder is a real chancey move. [Edit: took consideration for Rain Dance]

Kinda alot of Electric attacks.

Doesn't Attract just infatuate the opposite gender? If so 50% chance you'll face a opposite gender and then about 50% it will likely to attack (did not take consideration of seperate pokemon gender % and genderless).
Also doesn't infatuation go away if you switch Pokemon?

You might want Bronzong holding damp rock to make the rain last for awhile, cause I see it as more beneficial protecting Probopass, Sceptile from Fire and giving Lanturn a boost than just protecting Brongzong with Occa Berry (no battler would dare to attack with a fire attack in a rain dance unless it's 4x)

Slaking troubles me with his ability, so I always overlook him. Why'd you choose him over other Pokemon?

Edit: If Rain Dance last for awhile 'might' wanna replace some thunderbolt for Thunder.

I give about 5/10, needs work.

Well most people tend to use male natured pokemon when battling, I looked it over when studing more than my fair share of battles, plus thunderwave also is a bonus... But even if it's a ground type so thunderwave protects, my stab hydropump with mystic water coupled with most of the favorable grounds a Rock, I one shot pretty much all the time... Also I thought of using a damp rock, but didn't favor me, considering bronzong is my slowest next to probopass, and his rock negates fire, but brozong being his only weakness fire chose that I at least need one turn to put it up if I can last one turn then I'm fine.. Also with slaking I stated I used skillswap from bronzong to switch skills (in that situation I do not set up rain dance for it is again unfavorable in this situation and will usually only use slaking to wipe out enemies fast (slaking beig the 4th highest in attack)) that's how that works

Ohh gotcha, overlooked skillswaps ability, cause I mainly stick with single battles.

I don't fully know about Bronzong's full situation, but my past experience with a x4 weakness and a damage reducing berry has always led to a 1hko. If you wanna survive for at least 1 turn, might wanna consider Focus Sash.

Bronzong only has a 2x weakness, but if one fire attack hit him before he could use rain dance he could lose alot more help, bronzong is mainly a support, raindance for probopass's thunder skill swap for slakig then hypnosis or reflect or benifits, earthquake is there cause he needs a physical Attack to be a little useful

I will destroy you.

You're going down, next weekend, I'mma save this to notepad. >

U can copy it, study it... And find every counter u can for it... You'll lose anyway >=D

Woops mixed up Bronzong's typing.

I could easily counter everything you have. Considering using my two open spaces to do that.

But you won't, cause... well you won't...

Yeah, not worth my time (probably won't even have enough time anyway).

All I would have to do is get a Golduck and then probably a Spiritomb.

Golduck having Cloud Nine and Spiritomb having Taunt.


Really the only thing I'm afraid of is your Slaking (and possibly your earthquake strategy), but I switched around my move sets so I could incorporate Focus Punch into Rhyperior's move set again.

Yeah, Slaking is the only thing I'm afraid of, so I'm gonna need to find a way to make it stay in battle so my Breloom can do away with it.

Just gotta take out his Bronzong really and then his Slaking only becomes 50% effective due to Truant.

Makes sense, I'll do away with Bronzong using my Flygon's Fire Blast

Cept that's why bronzong has an occa berry, plus full special defense ev's so it will be able to come in at one attack at least... wether it be rain dance or skill swap, and slaking's speed ev's are maxed, so it outspeeds ur breloom one fire punch will knock it into obvlivion i win =D

Arcanine's Flare Blitz will take out 65% HP to Occa Bronzong. Take advantage of Bronzong's slowness

Keep Slaking in with Umbreon Mean Look+Baton Pass or Dugtrio

Sounds promising, but you shouldn't really plan on holding back bronzong, i mean he's really not your biggest threat cause even if skill swap doesn't play in, i can still do big damage... i usually OHKO every opponent with full happiness+Life orb+return, that's 204 base damage without the stab bonus... plus i don't belive in switching out unless it is u-turn or baton pass, so i don't fear meanlook (that's also why i fail at choice sets but thats a tale for another time) oh did i mention my gardevoir has 31 ev's in special attack... full special attack ev's twisted spoon and a special attack nature, it's got 174 special attack at level 50 ^-^ so i have a decent revenge killer as well

I believe you mean IV's. and I just figured out I'm training Breloom COMPLETELY Wrong, well, not in terms of EV's, in terms of how to get the attacks I need. Turns out, SHROOMISH, Not breloom, Learns Seed bomb and Spore. And that means I have to keep it a shroomish until level 45, THEN Evolve it. It's rediculous D: T-T
I'll still beat your Slaking, somehow.

thats what i did with my ludicolo xD, he was lotad for 45 levels xD... we'll see i suppose... we'll seeeee

oh cob on an off topic note... a video i commented like forever ago apparently got the highest rated comment with 42 likes...

Well, at least my Breloom is a Female so It's easy to get an Adamant nature... And I'll try for some good IV's.

And which video?

well juuuust... C

last mirror b fight... i just pointed out something and everyone was all OMEFFIN G THIS IS.... SOOO TRUE... and i'm like... sure?

Lol xD Stupid Breloom, I'm just gonna get all it's EV's as a shroomish, then rare candy it on Pearl. I also need to scour Marriland for an Impish Skarmory, they're IMPOSSIBLE to breed DX

I'd help u but this shiny treeko is the death of me... it's making me rage...

oh btw... >.> why no my siggy no work?

Bred a Duskull with 31 IVs in both Def and Sp. Def and has an Impish nature.

My Porygon-Z has 31 IVs in both HP and Speed (though the speed doesn't matter too much because I stupidly didn't EV train it in it) with 183 in Sp. Atk at lv 50 with Adaptability and Silk Scarf.

The Natus that I'm breeding right now will at least have 31 IVs in Sp. Atk and high speed IVs as well as the possibility of having 31 IVs in HP (the first Natu I caught had both 31 IVs in Sp. Atk and HP)

Off to catch a Rhyhorn now.
