Pokemon Farming: Mareep

September 12, 2007

Today in Pokemon Faming, the electric wool Pokemon, Mareep!

I chose this little ball of fluff because I wanted to farm something unusual and give it a useful moveset, because playing with Mareep and its evolutions can be challenging.

Mareep, and it’s evolutions Flaaffy and Ampharos, are like any other electric type, except unlike its fellow electrics, it has a rather low speed stat. Unfortunately, it’s move pool isn’t so diverse either. But, with what it can do, it can still do some damage! So I’ve made up a little moveset to help show it’s stuff!

  • Thunderbolt (STAB)
  • Thunder (STAB)
  • Signal Beam (A tribute to the ball of light at the end of it’s tail for which its known for, not a bad move, bug type)
  • Iron Tail (A steel type move to help deal with those rock types)

Breeding it wasn’t too complicated, just time consuming! I had to level a female to learn signal beam, used my beefy Feraligatr to breed iron tail to a male, leveled him up, taught him thunder and thunderbolt (I had a lot of extra TMs so I took the easy way) and bred the babies you can now receive!

So, want one of these Electric sheep? He’s how we do it:

  • Comment with your Name and Friend Code
    • Even if we have traded before, I need your information again!
  • Get a Pokemon to trade (preferably non-Sinnoh, though I will take anything, items are always appreciated. If anyone has a Kangaskhan to spare though, I’ll gladly take one! Not required though, of course!)
  • Be in the Wi-Fi zone between 8pm EDT on September 12 (Wednesday)
  • Make yourself available to Trade (Invite–>Trade) I will come to you when I’m ready.

My Information:

Trainer name: God

Friend Code:5369 6895 7194

I’ve been away for a couple of weeks, I’ve been moving, and it’s good to be back! See you all tonight!

Note: If you miss a farming event just visit the Missed Farming Eventsarea of the forum and look around.

I love Mareep! Ampharos was my first level 100 pokemon back on Gold version, so I’d love one of your little ones (after I work out the time difference heh).

Alright, i’m calling it a night. It went pretty well, I did miss a few of you however! Visit our forums
http://forum.pokefarm.com/
and check ‘missed farming events’ and ask for a Mareep and we can reschedule.

Thanks again everyone, I got quite a few pokes that I didn’t have before! Win-win!

Hi there, I was wondering if I could join here at Poke Farm. I’ve been playing for a long time and would not only like to help out but also like to have some battles as well as finish off my poke dex. I’m able to get most of all the pokemon as I have all the games. Right now the ones I’m really in need of getting are the 2nd Gen starters as I’m not sure If I can trade them from Crystal to Ruby and then to D/P. I was reading the articles here and I have to say I totally agree on the GTS thing, I hope when and if they release the next game for 4th Gen that they fix that.

Anyways please email, even if you can’t use me as a PokeFarmer I like to trade and/or battle with people. I’ve been playing Pokemon since first gen, so I like to think I know my stuff. I live in the USA, Neveda PST. I’m generally playing at night. You can contact me by email or IM to set up times to be online.
