Hmm... I might train a Tyranitar, which'd have Sand Stream, enabling Gliscor to put its Sand Veil ability to use. It'd be kind of redundant to since I'm letting my younger brother train one to make up for not letting him train one in Silver.

It's a long story. Basically in Pokemon Silver I was trying to catch a Larvitar in Mt. Silver. When I finally ran into one, he asked me if he could train it. I said no to him since I was the one who encountered it and I wanted to train it since it would evolve into Tyranitar, one of my favourite Pokemon. I felt kind of bad about it ever since, so to make up for it I gave him a Larvitar egg in his Platinum file, and told him that I owed him it.

LMAO! I was wondering wtf your problem was.

I'm going to come over there and break your "Report" button.

Well, there is the "double the types, double the weaknesses" factor to worry about.

Unless it's Spiritomb, Palkia, Drapion, or something like that.

Also, another question (sorry if this is starting to annoy you). I happened to use up my Razor Fang to evolve an Impish Gligar (which I got using the Lead Sychronize trick) that has Sand Veil. Do you think I should try to catch another one that'll have Hyper Cutter instead? I know it's probably not much to worry about since I'm only considering in-game (not the world of Gyarados and Salamence who are common Intimidators), but at the same time it'll be nice to know that its attack stat will stay fully intact when other Pokemon try to lower it. I probably won't be heavily training one anytime soon, but I want to make sure that I have a good Gliscor, just in case I feel like training one eventually.

I could always just switch out after fainting a Pokemon with Outrage. I'm only considering in-game factors after all.

...though I never really considered the fact that Outrage is only super effective against very few Pokemon.

Also, dual typed Pokemon still get 1.5x STAB right? I remember reading somewhere that they get 1.25x STAB instead, to balance out the fact that they have two STABs to take advantage of instead of the usual one.

Alright, fine:

Nidoking:
Poison Jab (Same Type Attack Bonus)
Earthquake (Same Type Attack Bonus)
Fire Punch (with Outrage it hits everything for at least neutral damage)
Outrage (with Fire Punch it hits everything for at least neutral damage)

Now I'm thinking of teaching Nidoking Megahorn, for taking on Psychic types that it's weak against. The thing is, I'm not sure which move to overwrite.

I'm kind of wanting to ask you your opinion about this moveset for my Pokemon, but I'm kind of reluctant to seeing how once I do ask you it'll totally give away the team I'll use when I'm facing you. I've already given away most of my team in previous usernotes.
