My original Platinum run, the battle with Cynthia was down to my Dusknoir and her Togekiss. Just an absolutely brutal slugfest that Dusknoir won.

Similar story, in my first Sun/Moon run, during the first fight against Lusamine, it was my Primarina, up against her Milotic. I had no Revives left, and all of my team was dead, except Primarina. The only move which did any amount of damage to Milotic I had was Disarming Voice. Not even Moonblast. What I had to do was spam the weak-ass 40 base power DV, hoping I could kill the Milotic. Luckily, I did, and I've managed to win, because Lusamine's last Pokemon was her Milotic

My Lopunny with swagger, She was worthless the whole Platinum playthrough except at the very end when she destroyed Synthia with Return and heavy use of Swagger. I was very surprised.

OP here.

>StormSilver
>Elite 4 Lance
>His ace is lvl 60 Dragonite
>Dragonites Outrage wipes out half my team with 1-2 hits
>Umbreon with brave nature and leftovers
>Hes the only one that could stand up to Dragonite and tank his hits
>Confuse Ray + Payback

My little umbreon going up and taking on Dragonite felt like David vs Goliath. Really solidified my love for umbreon as one of my favorite pokemon.

latest runthrough of Crystal, first time completing the League in maybe a decade. Traded a Lickitung over freom yellow because it was postgame, bred a new one and loved the fucker the entire game. Thunderpunch/Icepunch/Rest/Return(or Surf). Everyone came in handy against the E4, but I knew Lance would be the biggest pain.

Think I had to forgo my Chesto Berry in favour of Nevermeltice on Licktung. Think I went 'mon for 'mon with Lance until his final Dragonite. Worn down Licktung comes in and scores the freeze of the game. Sure it could have happened in a few more tries, but what he did for me is with me forever now.

Quoted By:

I never really liked Hawlucha's design all that much, but my ultra moon team had a few ground weaknesses, several dark and two bug and grass weaknesses. I was looking for pokemon that would fit the bill and Hawlucha was the perfect fit typewise. The design eventually started to grow on me. It erased Alola's plentiful dark types with HJK, switched in to ground types for free and nailed them with grass knot from its surprisingly decent special attack, and eviscerated all bugs and grasses with itemless acrobatics. It soon became my MVP and the lynchpin on my team. Gained my immense respect, and managed to sweep most of haus team with ease. Habanero is my bro now.

I'm still amazed that i channeled the power of the bullshit Facility AI for a fight. The rest of my team was pretty mediocre and would have 100% lost if I didn't get lottery tier luck.

More recently, I've been waiting for a good opportunity to box my Ariados in Ultra Moon but that little fucker has been consistently punching way above its weight. It's been the saving grace of literally every Guzma fight I've had

Ruby vs Steven. Camerupt was the only Pokémon on my team with a fire move and was relatively underleveled. The rest of my team had to weaken Metagross down before it got into full restore range. I had reset that battle so many times from missing Fire Blast. Metagross hit it with an Earthquake. With barely 14 hp left, Camerupt retaliated with a critical hit.

I think Metagross in general started my seething hatred toward steel types. Hurr durr, I’m basically immune to fucking everything

Not really a single battle persay but on a playthrough of Ultra Sun my team basically had to carry Rampardos cause it was such a dead weight, which also left a hole in my team because Rampardos' staying power was so shit it couldn't do its job against Flying-Types and help with Fairy-Types.

Lumineon's weird moveset options as well as just general balance ended up making it incredibly useful particularly in the mid and late game and easily the MvP when it came to the whole game.

marowak in emerald kaizo, he completely destroyed wattson with bonemerang, it's the only gym I beat on the first try in that game
also tyranitar in fire red. I had rematched the champion and we were down to ttar vs ttar, only his was 4 levels higher. The champion had already used all his healing items, and my ttar hit three consecutive rock slide flinches to clutch the battle. Unforgettable.

No idea what I was thinking I was like 5 or 6 and regretted it after. I probably wanted an all cool looking team and thought mankey didn’t fit in. If I could go back in time I’d change it, but I’ve been nice to mankeys since then which helps a bit

At this point, Magcargo is in my top 5 favorites because of this. I spent all my luck on that battle I guess
