Pokemon Farming: Swinub!
August 10, 2008
August 12, 2008
Continuing our “Winter in August” this week, I bring you Swinub. Swinub’s an odd little piglet of the ice and ground typing. In fact, it and it’s evolutions are the only pokemon who are immune to Sand Storm’s and Hail, making them great choices if you’re planing on building either weather team. Swinub evolves into Piloswine at level 33, and if you teach it Ancient Power it will evolve into the Mamoswine. Mamoswine is not only a behemoth in size, it’s attack tops off at a beastly 394, it ties with Garchomp and Breloom in terms of attack strength. Of course since it has access to Ice Shard, it can destroy both aforementioned pokemon before they can scratch it. So, the Swinub I’m adopting out today are adamant(attack+, sp. attack-), with max attack IVs and the following move set:
Ice Shard: A STABed priority attack, if D-dance or Scarfed dragons are giving you problem, this attack will solve your problems.
Earthquake: A powerful secondary STAB attack, if you’re opponent thinks about sending in a Bulky Water type, this will rip a hole in them. If you want to have some more fun, slap a choice band on this guy.
Curse: This move raises your attack and def, hopefully giving Mamoswine more play time and powering it’s attacks up further.
Body Slam: A decently powered physical attack, with a 30% chance of paralyzing your foe, making them as slow as you after the curse.
These Swinub have two abilities:
Oblivious: Prevents the pokemon from be affected by the attract condition.
Snow Cloak: Raises it’s evasiveness by one level in a snow storm.
Rules:
Post your name and FC (even if we’ve traded before I will need it again)
Only1 Pokémon per person
If you prefer a particular gender or ability tell me, this is on the first come first serve basis.
Please do not trade me eggs
Be in the Wi-Fi zone at 2pm(PST), on August 12th
Make yourself available to Trade (Invite–>Trade) I will come to you when I’m ready.
Iitems(rare candies or water stones) are very appreciated but not required.
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!
