  1. Btw this is a conversation I had with a friend in PU. We talked for a minute and they thought sun castform was significantly better. So thats exactly what I did.
  2. https://pokepast.es/2e4ee84ef19cba1a
  3.  
  4. [15:42:21] HappyLappy: hey, so I have a PU related question for you. Are you particularly busy atm?
  5. [15:42:28] Drop That Volbeat: nope
  6. [15:42:33] HappyLappy: cool
  7. [15:42:34] Drop That Volbeat: u trying to get into PU?
  8. [15:42:40] HappyLappy: not reallly
  9. [15:42:48] Drop That Volbeat: go ahead and ask then
  10. [15:42:57] HappyLappy: but I agreed to raise a competitive castform for another person in the WiFi room
  11. [15:43:25] Drop That Volbeat: i see
  12. [15:43:25] HappyLappy: and I have a question regarding swapping out one of the moves
  13. [15:43:33] HappyLappy: https://www.smogon.com/dex/sm/pokemon/castform/
  14. [15:43:38] HappyLappy: so the set is a rain dance castform
  15. [15:43:55] Drop That Volbeat: are u building a team?
  16. [15:44:01] Drop That Volbeat: or just one mon
  17. [15:44:05] HappyLappy: just the mon
  18. [15:44:32] HappyLappy: Would Weather Ball be better than Hydro Pump?
  19. [15:44:45] Drop That Volbeat: nah
  20. [15:44:55] Drop That Volbeat: hydro pump is your best move
  21. [15:45:07] HappyLappy: Okay.
  22. [15:45:15] Drop That Volbeat: in all honestly maybe weather ball over energy ball
  23. [15:45:28] Drop That Volbeat: but castform is never used in PU its more into ZU
  24. [15:45:29] HappyLappy: well, weather ball would become water type in the rain
  25. [15:45:42] Drop That Volbeat: ah yeah i wouldnt change anything on that set
  26. [15:45:52] HappyLappy: Ok
  27. [15:46:05] HappyLappy: ty for your help then!
  28. [15:46:07] Drop That Volbeat: np
  29. [15:46:33] HappyLappy: any other suggested changes for the set?
  30. [15:46:42] HappyLappy: I kinda wanna impress this dude
  31. [15:48:25] Drop That Volbeat: does it have to be rain set?
  32. [15:48:29] HappyLappy: no
  33. [15:48:32] HappyLappy: It doesnt
  34. [15:48:35] Drop That Volbeat: kk
  35. [15:48:38] Drop That Volbeat: gimme 1 sec
  36. [15:48:56] HappyLappy: I could ask a ZU expert too, so if you dont come up with anything good, lmk
  37. [15:49:07] Drop That Volbeat: yeah
  38. [15:49:17] Drop That Volbeat: imo sun set is a bit better if you want a wacky set
  39. [15:49:25] HappyLappy: hmm
  40. [15:49:29] HappyLappy: what do you have in mind?
  41. [15:50:18] HappyLappy: btw the castform I'm raising has 4 EMs
  42. [15:50:25] Drop That Volbeat: 4 ems?
  43. [15:50:28] HappyLappy: egg moves
  44. [15:50:31] HappyLappy: Clear smog
  45. [15:50:35] HappyLappy: Amnesia
  46. [15:50:36] Drop That Volbeat: gotcha
  47. [15:50:38] HappyLappy: Hex
  48. [15:50:40] HappyLappy: Ominous wind
  49. [15:51:12] Drop That Volbeat: i wanna make sure these moves are compatible real quick
  50. [15:51:18] HappyLappy: ok
  51. [15:51:41] HappyLappy: ?
  52. [15:51:51] Drop That Volbeat: gotta do it in PU form
  53. [15:52:03] HappyLappy: !learn castform, hex, amnesia, ominous wind, clear smog
  54. In Gen 7, Castform can learn these moves only when obtained from:
  55. Gen 5 egg: drifloon
  56. Gen 6 egg
  57. Gen 7 egg
  58. [15:52:17] Drop That Volbeat: nah
  59. [15:52:19] Drop That Volbeat: i mean
  60. [15:54:14] Drop That Volbeat: https://pokepast.es/2e4ee84ef19cba1a
  61. [15:54:20] Drop That Volbeat: there you go :)
  62. [15:54:43] HappyLappy: is energy ball better than solar beam? or not really?
  63. [15:55:21] Drop That Volbeat: oh it gets solar beam
  64. [15:55:26] HappyLappy: it does
  65. [15:55:30] Drop That Volbeat: yeah replace thats with solar beam defo
  66. [15:55:35] HappyLappy: ok
  67. [15:55:40] Drop That Volbeat: makes the z move stronger
  68. [15:55:43] HappyLappy: got it
  69. [15:55:47] Drop That Volbeat: and spammable in sun
  70. [15:55:55] HappyLappy: ok cool
  71. [15:56:54] HappyLappy: the castform is modest. is that a huge deal over timid?
  72. [15:58:39] Drop That Volbeat: depends
  73. [15:58:52] Drop That Volbeat: do you want speed?
  74. [15:58:58] Drop That Volbeat: cuz its kinda slow without timid
  75. [15:59:21] HappyLappy: The castform I agreed to train is modest
  76. [15:59:32] HappyLappy: so If it had to be modest, how would you change the EVs
  77. [15:59:46] Drop That Volbeat: evs shouldnt be changed at all
  78. [16:00:17] HappyLappy: Hydro pump is on there in case an opposing pokemon sets up rain, right?
  79. [16:01:33] Drop That Volbeat: that and for extra coverage
  80. [16:01:39] Drop That Volbeat: when sun runs out
  81. [16:01:44] HappyLappy: got it
  82. [16:02:22] HappyLappy: 1 last thing, Is it ok if I put this convo in a pastebin to show to the guy I'm getting the castform for?
  83. [16:02:51] Drop That Volbeat: yeah of course
  84. [16:03:01] HappyLappy: cool
  85. [16:03:03] HappyLappy: ty again
