Hi everyone. I bet you were expecting Moltres, but I didn’t pick
the Pokémon of this week. Don’t worry; we have an excellent
Pokémon for you instead of that one. Let’s see what Gyarados has
to offer.
Amazing, Gyarados used to be just another Pokémon. Today it is
one of the most used Pokémon. It is both flying and water type,
bad against electric but let’s not worry about that for now. Its
ability cuts foe’s attack which is always good.
It has excellent Attack and Special defense. So you don’t want
it to use Fire blast, it’s complicated sometimes. Beginners
might want to teach Gyarados Fire blast, thunderbolt, surf or
stuff like that. But this one is pure attack my friends.
The suggested move combination. Gyarados was made for total
destruction. You’re about to find out…
Gyarados.
Nature: Adamant (+ Attack, - Special Attack).
Equip: Leftovers.
EV´s: 252 Speed, 252 Attack, 6 Special Defense.
- Taunt
- HP Flying
- Earthquake
- Dragon dance
Great. The most predictable and common combination. Get Gyarados
out, your opponent will switch for a tank and you’ll use Dragon
dance. Your opponent wants to start its tank strategy. But YOU
HAVE TAUNT! Checkmate. Earthquake works wonderful in double
battles.
Gyarados.
Nature: Adamant (+ Attack, - Special Attack).
Equip: Liechi berry.
EV´s: 252 Speed, 252 Attack, 6 Special Defense.
- Earthquake
- Flail
- Substitute
- Dragon dance
Substitute and Flail, sweet. One or two dragon dances, then
Substitute until your Liechi activates. After that is just a
matter of choosing which is better; earthquake or flail.
When should I use this Pokémon?
Oh man. Everyone has a well trained Gyarados and you should have
yours as well. Works against Blissey! So that’s good enough to
go fishing your Magikarp.
What should I use against this Pokémon?
Remember we said something about electric-type Pokémon? They are
4x effective against Gyarados. Use something electric and fast;
Electrode or Jolteon. Ghosts are good as well. If you manage to
burn or poison Gyarados before it uses Taunt, you have a pretty
good chance there as well.
Bottom line:
Use it, please. He is strong and not as hard to use, almost
perfect. Just keep on training…
Rating:
4.7/5
Hope you enjoyed.
