What is this?

 

Bold Slowbro. +252 in Def/HP and +6 in Sp.Def.

 

Run Calm Mind/Slack Off/Psyshock/Scald

 

Sweeps nearly every boss if you know when to set up.

 

No need for Regenerator since you won't be switching because you'll melt everything. GGezpz

Have to say this is one of the threads I appreciate a lot. Thank you for taking the time to do this.

For Shary, I like to lead with toxic stall Blissey to take out Thundurus before going Chandelure for rest of fight. Shaui I sweep entirely with a levitate Bronzong with moveset iron defense/calm mind/psyshock/flash cannon.

Is talonflame still a required one with the change to the ability?

How do you get spikes on forretress? I can only find toxic spikes from move relearner and egg tutor.

Thank you for the guide, I refer to it quite often. However, Gengar with Air balloon post-ability change doesn't work since the AI is also informed that my poke is holding an Air Balloon. Cost me a Shary and Shaui fight. I'm thinking Rotom or its forms can take over Gengar's role in the battle.

 

Also, I'm surprised you didn't add Azumarill with Sap Sipper for Letrix, since the first 3 pokes all use grass moves on Azu. Garchomp is also a good dragon type which I think you left out entirely in this guide - Gar can setup Swords Dance and sweep Elm and Lt Surge with ease.

Any tips or possible update for Naero in Cerulean Cave B1F?

Thanks for the post - The air balloon strategy was proven fraudulent right away. Haunter works exactly the same in its place. The Letrix battle has been updated to add the Azu strategy as well - Honchkrow is *technically* faster since no set up is required, but both work very well.

 

Garchomp is a very difficult pokemon to obtain, and I tried the best that I can to minimize difficult pokemon needed in the guide. It could easily fit into the "fast dragon" category. Elm is already fairly easy to beat, and Surge is a joke with Seaking, so adding him didn't seem totally necessary.
