Thread 57998907

Fuck this piece of shit
Playing Black 2 and the game challenges you by giving you fuck all TMs and levels up to the Elite 4, but nothing could save this irredeemable shitmon.

I wanted to make it work, I was using him since level 30. His design is awesome, I thought surely in BW2 with the babby mode split and infinite TMs, I could make something happen but it's not happening. It's over.

Also where the fuck can you grind in this game? I need to train something to replace it and kill Chauntal's ghosts.

Sunny Day + Chlorophyll + Solar Beam
you can have Synthesis with that
Body Slam is better than facade
Air Slash is better than Fly
Bulldoze for coverage would be good

>>57998912
magneton evolves in chargestone cave

>>57998907 (OP)
>physical attacker
>clearly has high special stat
It gets Air Slash a bit late but it's better than Fly at least, also you should have a Bulldoze TM which is more useful than Facade

Tropius only gets Air Slash at level 51 (lmao) and is too slow to take advantage of the flinches.
Also Solarbeam would be good if Tropius could live the turn to set up sun and was fast enough for the chlorophyll boost to matter.
Body Slam, not a TM so I'd have to waste resources at the relearner.
Maybe I'm being too harsh, but he's been a complete drain of resources on my team, wearing the fucking EXP share all through Victory Road and stealing levels from mons that actually do things.

>>57998933
Magnezone is too ugly for my kino team.

>>57998934
By its base stats it's supposed to be physical oriented. I think mine has a shit nature though. Anyway, even the special moves it gets are mostly crap. Why can't this fucker learn Gyro Ball?

I do appreciate BW2 being stingy with TMs though, felt like in BW1 you got powerful moves quickly and could of course slap them on everything. Makes the game a bit more challenging.
Magneton was using damn T-Wave/Electro Ball combos until Thunderbolt after the last Hugh fight.

Imagine having shit taste strong enough to hinder your team.

Skill issue
>>maybe the worst typing imaginable
That's not Aurorus thoughever

>>57998907 (OP)
Are you stupid? Slow Subs+Leech Seed and Harvest Sitrus make this thing unkillable.

You're using it wrong. But if you ever did want to go offensive, you breed Dragon Dance even though there are better dragon dancers. The Sitrus Leech bullshit is its best set.

>>57998907 (OP)
Side note: where did you buy the game?
I'm looking to buy a copy of black 2 cause I used to play it but lost my old copy years ago. Now they're a bitch to find

>>57998907 (OP)
>physical attacker
>highest stat is special attack

Game Freak casually acting like they're edgy and subversive by making dinosaur-based Pokemon excessively weak. It's bullshit.

>>57999272
Don't single out Aurorus when there's also Hisuian Avalugg.

>>57999005
>By its base stats it's supposed to be physical oriented
>Worst three stats from worst to best are Speed(51), Attack(68), Special Attack(72)
The fuck are you on? It's not an attacker at all based on the base stats.

>>57998907 (OP)
Yup Its really sad as its very unique. I proposed this kind of moveset change.

>>58000074
Game Freak would consider this to be too OP (or possibly even gamebreaking) while shitting out Gholdengo.

Game Freak is completely unable to comprehend what balancing is because their idea of it is to make one fully evolved Pokemon borderline unusable for a playthrough (Tropius) and the other Pokemon busted for the sake of generating artificial hype (Calyrex and Urshifu).

Alright, I wasted a heart scale to give it the Body Slam/Air Slash/Bulldoze set you people suggested, hope it works out. If not, I'm seriously going to just switch it out for Claydol or Banette.

Sorry OP but you literally CAN'T make a pokemon that has THESE stats work

>>58000902
I'm not saying it's impossible, it's just that Tropius has a combo of shitty stat distribution and awful moveset that makes it unfun to use.

>>58000902
This spread is similar to Amoonguss’ though

Well I dumped Claydol because the type matchup sucked and got to Iris, and Tropius actually helped kill Golurk and safe switching out of ground moves on Magneton. Problem is that Marshall has a Rock move on all of his mons and they kill immediately.
Also Iris raped me. Not sure what to do since Flygon is just rekt by any Dragon Pulse and Magmar gets killed without eviolite

THE /VP/ POSTER HAS BEEN FILTERED BY A CHILDRENS' GAME

>>57998907 (OP)
Leave saladmence alone, fuckface, that guy is the goat

This thread sucks ass, OP is a shitter and boxing your starter is soulless

>>58002261
>boxing your starter is soulless
In this case it's based because all the starters in Unova are fucking shit.
OP still sucks at this game though.

>>58002265
They're cool

>I'd have to waste resources at the relearner.
NOOOOOO NOT THE SHIT I CAN OBTAIN DAILY AND HAVE NO USE FOR OTHERWISE
why are pokemon fans like this
>>58000100
gamefreak's entire pokemon creation process is retarded. Artists; the guys who write dex entries; and those who make the stats, movesets and shit don't communicate with each other, the teraleak confirmed this.
I wouldn't even be surprised if stats and movesets are handled by different people too kek

>>58000887
I have no idea why you would listen to that first guy while ignoring >>57999287 which is the most widely agreed best set on Tropius. He’s obviously not meant to just fling random coverage moves, he’s got a very specific niche. If you don’t get his hidden ability yeah he’s gonna be worse, same with a billion other pokemon in Gen 5 that are only good with their HA.

>>58002293
>Artists; the guys who write dex entries; and those who make the stats, movesets and shit don't communicate with each other, the teraleak confirmed this.
Is this one of the things that a developer team SHOULD do, communicating with each other?

>>58002293
>I wouldn't even be surprised if stats and movesets are handled by different people too kek
Game Freak should be a case study on how a game developer should NOT operate.

>>57999245
Eviolite Magneton is better thoughbeit
