Sacrifice Attacks:
Attacks like Explosion and Self Destruct always seem
to be at your downfall, but are they really? From playing
the game we have found out that when you are really
low on health you and have nothing to do against your
energized opponent (which has almost all its health!)
you should use a sacrifice attack. This way you take
out yourself, as well as the opposition.
Quickness:
You would often think power is the only means of winning,
but its not. By starting your battle with a fast lead
Pokemon, it could very well give you the edge you need
to succeed. A fine choice would be electrode, most likely
the fastest Pokemon in the game.
Crippling Attacks:
If your Pokemon seems to have the lower hand in battle,
try using some status changing moves. A great combo
is confuse ray and then hypnosis. This way you leave
your enemy useless and just ready to be destroyed.
Surprise your
opponent: Surprising your opponent is often
the best way to baffle their minds and strengthen your
chances of victory. By equipping a Pokemon with a move
it shouldn't have, your enemy will be completely thrown
off. For instance, Rhyhorn with the Surf ability.
Dig and Fly:
These two moves can be both useful, and a painful. When
you have the ability to use Dig or Fly, you should.
As it is an attack that you can't be hit while executing.
The only known way to nail someone using Dig or Fly
is with the ability Swift. Beware these moves as they
are highly dangerous.
Ghost versus
Psychic: As you know Psychic Pokemon have
the edge over most types. Your best bet against one
of these powerhouses is a ghost type like Gengar. Even
though the ghost's are weak against psychic attacks,
if you can get one sleeping its done for.
