Pokémon Farming: Snover!

August 7, 2008

August 8, 2008

As we kick off our special “Winter in August” event here at Pokefarm, what better way to start than with the Pokémon that brings winter with him wherever he goes?

Snover is “can do” little Pokémon with the odd typing of Grass and Ice. While their speed is nothing to write home about, their offensive options are impressive despite a limited move selection. Their Snow Warning power creates a massive hail storm on the field with their first appearance that will never wind down of it’s own accord. With a fierce selection of attacks on both the physical and special end of the spectrum Snover and his Evolution Abomasnow can put a big dent in just about anyone if they get a chance to act.

These Snover are mixed sweepers with a variety of powerful physical and special attacks. While these mixed sweepers come in a random assortment of natures, all have a 31 IV in speed. As a mixed attacker appreciates just about any of their stats, all will be holding a Starf Berry (which boosts a random stat when Snover drops to 1/4 HP).

Their move sets are as follows:

Blizzard: With a mighty 120 power, and hitting both opponents in a double battle but not affecting your side, Blizzard takes it’s place among the most powerful attacks in the game. It’s normally rather lackluster 70 accuracy is wiped away in Snover’s Hail, not only making Blizzard automatically hit but also giving Snover a roughly 25% chance of hitting through Protect or Detect! You really don’t want to get attacked with a Auto-hitting, STABed Blizzard!

Wood Hammer: A strong special attack like Blizzard may give people the idea to bring a Pokémon with a good special defense to resist it. If they try it, you can hit them with Wood Hammer. With 120 power and 100 accuracy Wood Hammer’s powerful physical damage really packs a wallop. Just be careful as Snover takes backlash when he connects.

Ice Shard: One of Snover’s main weaknesses is his lackluster speed. With Ice Shard you will have attack priority to get those hits before your opponent has a chance to try anything funny.

Protect: Snover’s other main problem are all the type weaknesses he picks up from his Grass/Ice typing. With Protect you can scout out your opponent in relative safety for a round while the hail picks away at them.

Rules:
Post your name and FC (even if we’ve traded before I will need it again)
Only 1 Pokémon per person
If you prefer a particular gender tell me, this is on the first come first serve basis.
Get a Pokémon to trade (No eggs, though I will take anything and any Pokémon, items like Rare Candies, TMs, and Heart Scales are always appreciated!)
Be in the Wi-Fi zone at 5pm(CST) Friday, August 8th.
Make yourself available to Trade (Invite–>Trade) I will come to you when I’m ready.
If you are new to our site, your first comment will be moderated. Don’t worry if your post doesn’t show, we will get to it in time, and you will not miss out!

Trainer: Jhamin
FC: 4468-2399-7638

I look foreword to seeing everyone in the trade room!

I’d love to adopt one of these too! Either gender is fine. If nicknames are allowed, I’d like the name to be Blizzard. Thanks for a great event!

I’ll take a Adamant male if possible. If not, any male. I’d like a good one, preferably 25+ Att. I’ll give a shiny starly. Thanks, I’m interested in using it as a little cup lead, to see how it works. It’ll also be my gible counter.

If you could nickname a female one ‘Noel’ that would be nice. I’ll work with any Nature/Personality you give me. Which item would you prefer more, a Rare Candy or a Heart Scale?

Don’t know if you saw my request on the “Missed Farm Events” board, but just in case, I’ll repeat it here.

Because I am almost certainly going to be at work or commuting home then, I’d like to reserve one. Do you, by any chance, have a sassy female? If not, do you have a timid or jolly one? Thanks!

Btw, I got let out early, I’ll be on.

I’m sorry that there weren’t any Sassy ones left for you. I only had a few and it was first come first served.

I hope you still enjoy Snover.
