[Chat] Most Underrated Attacker

Kingler, lways had great luck with them

Im waiting to get a good scizor (greater than the 2 87% iv i have) so i can power that up for the mewtwo battles. Its a good replacement for ttar if you dont have enough of them since scizor also takes reduced dmg from most of mewtwos dmg, and does se dmg with a bug moveset. Its also good because you dont have to worry about mewtwo having focus blast with scizors.

I have a Pinsir nest near me and I’ve got some with decent IVs. I just need to power them up for Mewtwo, also still need to get lots of Scyther candy for Scizor.

Ditto isn’t useful because when it transforms it has very low cp and doens’t do a lot / if any damage at all.

It depends on the initial CP of the ditto and what it transforms into. For example, Gengar is super effective against Gengar so a strong Ditto might come in helpful.

Unfortunately it retains its own HP regardless of the HP of what it transforms into so even being super effective it should take only a couple of hits to kill… Still fun to use them against Legendaries though.

Scizor
Kingdra
Ampharos
Exeggutor

Why do you use / pick those mons?

I also like to use alakazam which is nice

I must say Noctowl.
I think it is more useful than what it gets credit for. It got good stamina and defense. It can learn the psychic moves Extrasensory and Psychic witch makes it great for taking down fighting type Pokémon. And it’s flying type levels out the normal types weakness for fighting (it does however get weakness against electric, rock and ice).

Another one I like is Tentacruel.
High defense and decent attack and stamina. Poison and water type has its advances and dis-advances. Since it have poison type it levels out the water type weakness to grass types (although it gains weakness against psychic and ground). However when putted against the right Pokémon it can take good abuse and put in a few nice hits as well.

And of course there are more that are useful as attackers. Pidgeot, Jynx, Lanturn, Skarmory, Piloswine, Porygon2, Omastar, Cloyster, Forretress and even one of my most hated Quagsire can be usefull with its water/ground type. Theese are just a few examples.

Omastar is not at all underrated. It is one of the best counters against entei and can reach quite a high CP and is definitely a competitor with Vaporeon.

Cloyster is not underrated either, they are one of the primary Dragonite killers.

Jumpluff with solar beam. Yes I’m a noob, but I’ve had nothing but excellent experiences with him so far – both attacking and defending. Never fails to amaze.

Love these guys, good grass types are beast :crazy_face:

True, because Dragonite it part flying, but what if a Machamp is next?

You switch out the sudwoodo
(30 character limit)

Gengar with Focus Blast is my new go to attacker
