Pokemon Farming: Zangoose
November 18, 2007
Today we bring you the cat ferret Pokemon Zangoose!
Zangoose was added into the game in the Ruby and sapphire games. This cat ferret Pokemon hails from the Hoenn region and is a dire enemy of Seviper. Zangoose saw heavy use in tournament play prior to the release of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl. It is known for its high Attack and Speed scores.
These particular Zangoose were bred from a pair I brought over from my Pokemon Ruby game via the PalPark. Both parents were of extremely high level and I paid a visit to the Move Tutor to teach them a move that was not available to them in the old game.
All Zangoose have the Immunity ability which means they can never be poisoned. This plays into their life-long hatred of Seviper.
When breeding these Pokemon I took a careful look at the move set available and what TMs I had in stock. I quick visit to the Move Tutor allowed me to trade a few Heart Scales for the move Close Combat (Fighting/Physical/120 Power) which they could not learn in Ruby.
Looking through my TMs I realized that the Zangoose needed something to hit Pokemon of the Ghost type. There were some better moves I could have gone for but the Ghost move Shadow Claw (Ghost/Physical/70 Power) seemed most appropriate for Zangoose.
- Move Set
- Swords Dance – Normal, increases your Attack power.
- Crush Claw – Normal, 75 Power and 95% accuracy.
- Close Combat – Fighting, 120 Power and 100% accuracy. It also lowers your Defense and Special Defense after use.
- Shadow Claw – Ghost, 70 Power and 100% accuracy.
All of these moves play up to Zangoose’s high Attack score. Due to the high power of these attacks you can really clean up in a breeders tournament!
Rules
1. I will take any Pokemon you want to give me.
2. The Pokemon you trade to me should be holding something.
3. I prefer berries over all other items.
4. The only exception to berries are the two items that Magby/Elekid hold when caught in the wild.
5. When you leave your information in the comments below your trainer name must be correct. When I do the trading I refer to the comments on the site to see who gets what.
6. When you enter the Wi-Fi zone select the trade option and wait for me to select you.
7. If you can, be early. I am sometimes on early.
8. Don’t be afraid to trade amongst yourselves.

It makes me really happy to have finally been able to take part in a PokeFarm trade. I’ve been wanting to for months now but kept missing them.
Thank you!

I can’t cancel the trade until you offer something.

Hello i wanted to know if you skipped over my name i went to the rest room and left my GDS
Mike

I’m back on again.
I haven’t seen you pop up as being online yet. Have you added me to your PalPad? (Just asking, in case I can’t see you because I have flakey connection).
My palpad is full tonight. I remove people and add more inbetween trades.
Okay, just making sure. :)
Thanks.
Got my Zangoose! Thanks a bunch! :)
Whoo! I can’t wait to get one! My husband’s cat it lying next to my ds, waiting for the Zangoose, too. :)
I have to drop out and refill.
Everyone should now be in my palpad.
If you do not see me know and you are still waiting please post your name and FC as a reply to THIS comment.
I’m not seeing anything, but I’m not entirely sure I’m looking in the right spot. I’m in the wi-fi club, with a trade invitation out. My game name is Sarah, and my FC is 2406 2855 6751. It’s my first time trading, so…
You were not in my palpad, just added and headed back in.
I see you now, waiting confirmation from you.
Yay! It took a couple of tries, but she finally came through! Thank you very much, and have a very pleasant evening. :)
thanks alot
I’m calling it a night! Thanks everyone!
