RE: Grumpig + Shadow Ball? Good or Bad

If it's for the tower, what are his EV;s? Might help people suggest a set.
 
RE: Grumpig + Shadow Ball? Good or Bad

I EV train Grumpig...but I didn't keep track... >_<

is there another way I can caculate it?
 
RE: Grumpig + Shadow Ball? Good or Bad

No, but did you use the standard 252/252/4 spread?
 
RE: Grumpig + Shadow Ball? Good or Bad

(O_O)I don't know what that is. I got around 5 to 6 points everytime I leved up. O.e
 
RE: Grumpig + Shadow Ball? Good or Bad

You obviously have no idea what EV training is then. It probably just some random numbers now and is competitively useless. As for the question, Shadow Ball is a great Special Attack, especially when you can get STAB. But Grumpig is not your best option.
 
RE: Grumpig + Shadow Ball? Good or Bad

Well what other move could I give it?
 
RE: Grumpig + Shadow Ball? Good or Bad

Shadow Ball is physical in Generation 3 on account of being Ghost-type. So on a CM set, it's useless. (Oh yeah, and so is Hidden Power Poison.)

Why did none of you notice this?

As for a move suggestion? If you have someone with an Emerald version, teach the pig Fire, Ice, or Thunderpunch. If you don't...well, just remember to teach it something that isn't physical.
