It’s time for the Battle Revolution sweeping through the nation: Pokemon! Sorry to say, but I can only show you how to optimize your team via the DS game. I can say for sure that these tips will help grow your Pokemons.
Pokemon Battle Revolution Related Tricks
Free Pikachu
Yes, I know… a Pikachu! What makes this Pikachu different from any other Pikachu you can catch is the fact that it comes with Surf, Volt Tackle, and a Light Ball! More importantly it knows Surf…
All you have to do is beat the game. Then you’ll find a new item in the shop that’s worth 0 BP. Buy it and send it to your DS! Once it’s transferred go to the Poke Mart and talk to the delivery guy there for a free Surfing Pikachu.
Free Magmortar
Go to your self-introduction and put down B416-X4HT-VTWF. Then you’ll find a new item in the shop that’s worth 0 BP. Buy it and send it to your DS! Once it’s transferred go to the Poke Mart and talk to the delivery guy there for a free Magmortar.
Free Electrive
Go to your self-introduction and put down this BA16-X4SH-E2AT. Then you’ll find a new item in the shop that’s worth 0 BP. Buy it and send it to your DS! Once it’s transferred go to the Poke Mart and talk to the delivery guy there for a free Electrive.
Note: You’ll be transferring via Mystery Gift. So if you didn’t unlock it you can’t transfer. It’s easy to unlock though. Just go to the 3rd floor of the Jubilife City TV station. There you’ll meet a guy who’ll interview you. All you have to do is say EVERYONE HAPPY and then Wi-Fi CONNECTION. Then you unlock Mystery Gift!
Pokemon’s Moves
Now if you want to really kill your friends and anybody else you should follow some of these tips and tricks.
Move Types
First off your Pokemon should learn attacks that have are different types (unless they’re there for a different reason ex: screech, tail whip, etc) to get the type advantage against your friends.
STAB
STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus) is when a pokemon uses a move that is the same type as it is. When you do this you increase the damage up to 1.5 stronger. Now combine a strong corresponding move and you get a super beefed up attack.
Move Types 2
Another common mistake my friends and I make was that we used moves like Flamethrower with a Pokemon that specializes with the attack stat. Now Flamethrower could still hurt, but you would have been better off using a physical fire type move like Fire Punch or Fire Fang.
Pokemon’s Stats
Next you should understand that stats are important for your Pokemon. It doesn’t matter if they have the coolest, most awesome move if your Pokemon isn’t strong enough to even hurt a fly.
There are 6 stats:
- Attack – This is how much damage you do with physical attacks like: Giga Impact, Shadow Punch, Flame Wheel, Volt Tackle, etc.
- Defense – This is how much damage you reduce from taking physical based attacks.
- Special Attack – This is how much damage you do with special attacks like: Flamethrower, Hyper Beam, Draco Meteor, Fire Spin, etc
- Special Defense – This is how much damage you reduce from taking special based attacks.
- Speed – This is how well you dodge your opponents attack and who gets to attack first.
- HP – This is how much HP you have left. When this bugger goes all the way down to 0 your Pokemon “faints”.
Now you should learn about IV and EV. What are they well, IV is like your born talent for a stat, and EV is like training for stats.
IV (Individual Value)
Every Pokemon have a preset amount of IV that can’t be changed. A Pokemon can get from 0-31 IV for each stat. More IV in a stat = More stats
Unfortunately there is no way to control the IV your Pokemon gets. Instead your best chances are just to catch a whole bunch of Pokemon, and figure out which one has the best stats via an IV calculator (Google it), and then breed them (a goof Ditto is ideal).
The reason you want a Ditto is, because Ditto can breed with every Pokemon that’s breedable, because of its abilities to…change forms.
I don’t know why it works, but if you think it like this: If a athletic person marries another athletic person their athletic genes may be passed down unto their child. IV works kind of like that.
EV (Effort Value)
EV unlike IV is not preset with the Pokemon. EV is like training your stats behind what the game really shows you.
Every Pokemon you fight gives you EV, and every 4 EV = 1 stat point. Each stat can only have 255 EV, and you can only get a total of 510 EV.
Giving your Pokemon “drugs” as my friends call them give your Pokemon 10 EV. You can only give 10 of them so that’s 100 EV for any stat (they don’t have to all go to one stat). Remember you’re not giving your Pokemon steroids you’re giving them stats enhancing items!
Nature
Another thing that really affects your stats is the nature (personality) of the Pokemon. It is possible for every Pokemon to get every nature in the game. Your ideal Pokemon would have a nature that would fit their stats.
Depending on the nature of your Pokemon one of their stats will be raised and another will be lowered. However there are exceptions. There are 5 (out of 25) nature that doesn’t reduce or increase your stats.
Never Underestimate the Power of Fully Trained Pokemons
For instance since I’m the only one who trains my Pokemon with “steroids” in my group of friends, I came out on top. In fact I almost defeated my friends with a Staraptor and a Surfing Raichu (The prized Pikachu from Pokemon Battle Revolution).
However soon I became Cocky and my whole team lost to a Jolteon (although I have my suspicion that the guy cheated with his Pokemon…)
Strategies
What I mean by strategies isn’t by what to do, but Pokemon “builds” that’s based off of their stats and move choices, because, yes, some Pokemon are better then others.
Sweeper
Sweepers are pokemon that attacks the opponent and gets rid of them fast. Sweepers usually have high speed and high attack/special attack.
Walls
Walls are pokemon with high defensive/special defensive stats that do things like poisoning the opponent’s pokemon while taking small damage, or something similar. They can also have a lot of HP and support your team with Safeguard and Protect (Blissey)
Status (Forgot What They Were Called…)
These Pokemons are hard to get rid of and they give annoying status effects like confusion and poison. I guess they can also be considered Walls.
Baton Passers
What these guys do is that they pump up their stats and that’s it. What? You expect anything else? Well you’re right, because after they pump up their stats, they use the move baton pass, which basically makes you switch to another Pokemon passing over all of the stat increase!
Now this is all I can think of, but there must be plenty more “builds”, strategy, and overall tricks in this game for you to use and abuse.
