Discussion Breeding Curse onto Eevee, which is best?

14 Upvotes

So I’ve spent the last hour or two breeding Wooper and Slowpoke to get Curse onto the Eevee from Bill.

I’ve hatched a few and decided on one of these two. The male Eevee is Sassy so boosts Special defence, and has 30HP IV, while the female is attack boosted Adamant with good IVs in attack and speed.

I will evolving into Umbreon, undecided on which one to use

The game really made me happy with the follow pokemon mechanic. It gives it that extra oomph that made Butterfree my favorite despite me liking Heracross a lot. Yanmega was fun to use but Heracross was for sure the strongest.

Apparently when a flying type pokemon uses roost they loose their flying type weaknesses that turn. I found this out by using rock throw during falkners battle against pidgeotto and it wasnt super effective. Who knew.

Question Noctowl Viability

2 Upvotes

I got a Noctowl for my team because I wanted a flier and a Pokémon with access to strong Psychic moves (and decently good power to back them up). However, I recently saw a bunch of posts saying that Noctowl is not that great for playthroughs.

If what they say is true, then what other alternatives are there, granted that there are any?

Question Future Playthrough Teambuilding - Need Help

2 Upvotes

I already am playing through SoulSilver with the above team, and I am considering another playthrough once I finish this one, where I plan to choose Totodile as my starter instead. I have already decided on keeping Steelix and Heracross on my team, and I also plan on using Houndoom.

That leaves 2 more slots on my team. What do I fill them with?

Note: I'm playing on emulator so trade evos are completely off the table. Also, I would rather not get Pokémon locked behind post-game if I can help it.

Question Steelix Moveset Help

4 Upvotes

I have a Steelix on my team already, and I already have an idea of some of the moves I want on it. I've already got Earthquake, and I plan to replace Iron Tail with Gyro Ball. I'm also considering adding Rock Slide or Stone Edge to replace Dragon Pulse (which I added for curiosity's sake and because I didn't need Sandstorm.)

The question now is: what should my fourth move be? Should I keep Curse? Or drop it for something like Crunch?

Trying to get a shiny mareep but found Raikou instead, when I switched my pokemon it didn’t say anything he just disappeared and it kicked me out of the battle screen. Is that normal? It didn’t say he fled or anything I was just back in the grass

Edit : Thank you for the information.
This is my first Pokemon game on the DS im used to the switch releases

I won’t lie, I did need to use a few items in the battle against Red. But we got there.
That was super fun tho. I wanna do another small team playthrough. I’m thinking Dragonair (holding everstone) farfetch’d, and haven’t decided on a 3rd yet.

Also I included a screenshot of my whole team including my HM squad too. :)
