[QUOTE="Pokemon Trainer, post: 10417, member: 1"] Since we are a Pokémon community, I thought of opening a weekly thread to talk about a Pokémon. We can talk about the competitive, of what we like about that Pokémon (or not), if we ever used it in the games (so we can share our experiences with that particular Pokémon: it helped in some way during your battling or not) or to simply share knowledge about that particular Pokémon. [CENTER][B]This week's Pokémon is Stunfisk![/B] [IMG]http://www.pokemon-trainer.com/images/sprite/xyorasani/618.gif[/IMG] [B]Type: [/B]Electric/Ground [B]Base stats:[/B] 109 HP | 66 Atk | 84 Def | 81 Sp. Atk | 99 Sp. Def | 32 Spe [B]Ability:[/B] Static/Limber | Sand Veil (HA)[/CENTER] This flat, fish-like Pokémon is really ugly. I never liked its design and always boxed him but in an Online Competition like the [URL='http://www.pokemon-trainer.com/threads/pikachu-cup-online-competition-regulations.594/']Pikachu Cup[/URL] in ORAS, Stunfisk really shined. For sure Stunfisk is really slow but is overall bulk and can sustain some hits from the opponent. This is the moveset I used in that competition: [B]Moves:[/B] - Scald - Protect - Stealth Rock - Earth Power [B]Item:[/B] Leftovers [B]Ability:[/B] Static [B]Nature:[/B] Bold [B]EVs:[/B] 252 HP | 252 Def | 4 Sp. Def This thing was really useful in the Pikachu Cup since the competition was 2vs2. Stealth Rock is a good start that will damage the opponent that switches in. After that you can choose to attack with Earth Power (a good Ground STAB move)/Scald (that has a chance to burn) or to use Protect and recover some HP with Leftovers. Since in that competition any Pokémon from the National Pokédex with the Electric type were allowed, a Ground type like Stunfisk is something really useful (and that's why in this moveset there isn't any Electric type move). [B]Moves:[/B] - Stealth Rock - Earth Power - Discharge - Toxic [B]Item:[/B] Leftovers/Passho Berry [B]Ability:[/B] Static [B]Nature:[/B] Bold [B]EVs:[/B] 252 HP | 252 Def | 4 Sp. Def Like before, the Evs and Nature are the same but this time the moveset is a little different. Like before we have Stealth Rock that will damage the opponent that switches in and Earth Power but this time we added Toxic and Discharge. Toxic will poison your enemy while Discharge is a STAB move that has a high chance to paralyze. You can change Toxic/Stealth Rock for Protect to recover some HP with Leftovers. Like I wrote before, I never used Stunfisk before ORAS and that online competition. I always boxed him but I have to say that Stunfisk was really a great surprise when I used him in a Link Battle and he defeated Primal Groudon (low health), Diancie (low health) Metagross/Mega Metagross (full health) and Aegislash (full health). [SPOILER="Video of the Battle"][MEDIA=youtube]voG-p5VoqdQ[/MEDIA][/SPOILER] Did you know that no other Pokémon has the same type combinations as Stunfisk? And he is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 471. And now, let's share our experiences with that particular Pokémon in our games, cool fan artworks (with the source) or anything else!
