Is it impossible to get a female Venusaur from the Dream World? You should be able to get 1 in 8.
I haven't seen myself, but I have heard that the starters aren't found randomly, but are released as (male-only) events.Is it impossible to get a female Venusaur from the Dream World? You should be able to get 1 in 8.
Problem with PD is that you often absolutely need Venu to be able to hit something like Politoed with a Grass move, without locking itself in and letting a Nattorei get a few free layers. Steel/Bug or Grasses are so common that it really is detrimental.He's not the best sun sweeper, and certainly not anymore since Power Whip/Giga Drain are illegal, but he's still damn good. Sludge Bomb is still very powerful and it is your reliable STAB, so your other STAB can be Petal Dance. Everything but Heatran that resists Grass is smashed by a +2 HP Fire or Sludge Bomb, so sweeping with Petal Dance is very possible. Though now it has competition with Victreebel, who has more physical attack, Leaf Blade/Power Whip/Giga Drain, Weather Ball, Sucker Punch, and Encore. The bulk Venusaur has is great though.
Yeah I thought that this was the case with exclusively code released DW pokes.I haven't seen myself, but I have heard that the starters aren't found randomly, but are released as (male-only) events.
As just posted above its illegal with Chlorophyll at the moment - just like Baton pass isn't legal with Blaziken - due to fixed genders of event give away DW Pokemon. My guess is it may take a LONG while or perhaps even never for female versions to be released given that you generally have to shell out some cash so far to get the passwords that give you access to the said DW pokemon. Helps to rake in profit and attendance at promotion - or just a good way to rake in cash through advertising tie ups.I've found giga drain to be a good option, as it offsets LO, doesn't lock you in, and can help get another +2/+2.
You really need to stop that. Read the first post, bud, it's the same on EVERY TOPIC; these are not tier discussions. So cut it out.So what tier are we predicting for Venusaur this gen? UU? BL? OU?
Absolutely. It is still the fastest Leech Seeder (under sun) and it could do a Growth Sub Sludge Bomb Leeech Seed set (walled by Heatran and Nattorei but you can't get everything and Nattorei doesn't really want to risk Venasaur's carrying Hp Fire so that leaves Heatran who has always been a pain for Venasaur) or just a very bulky special defensive Sub Leech Seed set. It can still pull off the mixed variant or special variant without Giga Drain (although the all special isn't as great without Giga Drain anymore to offset Life Orb recoil but it is still very vicious).so do you think a non growth venu is effective at all??
Jumpluff will beat you up for saying such a thing.It is still the fastest Leech Seeder (under sun)
Erufuun says hi.Jumpluff will beat you up for saying such a thing.It is still the fastest Leech Seeder (under sun)
Venusaur is tied with Shiftry and Skiploom.It is still the fastest Leech Seeder (under sun)
Lol, oops. I like totally forgot a lot of those. Still, Venasaur is probably better than Jumpluff, Shiftry and the Deer don't waste time with Leech Seed and Erufuun can't really do much to Venasaur (except Paralyze and annoy with Encore) but will fear Sludge Bombs and Hp Fire.Venusaur is tied with Shiftry and Skiploom.
Venusaur is slower than Jumpluff and Mebukijika.
Venusaur is trolled Monmen and Erufuun.
edit: ninja'ed by a lot
Er, I'm pretty sure that's all everyone's been talking about for the past several pages. The OP is entirely outdated, though.Has no one mentioned the obligatory Chlorophyll-growth set?
I guess everything still apply's . Though regardless of power whip he is being outshone by Chlorophyll.What about non-Chlorophyll Venusaur? What can they do to stand out in this metagame? Access to Power Whip is nice, for sure, but do the old Gen IV sets still apply to Gen V? Or will Overgrow Venusaur have to think more creatively in order to stand out?
