Progress

Finished

Drapion already has some defensive bulk, so I like the Careful nature on Set 2. Although, would you think Battle Armor is a better ability than Sniper for Set 2 if it's meant to be defensive?

For Set 1, would you consider Iron Tail? I know it's a transfer-only egg move. Then again, Drapion can naturally learn the elemental fangs for coverage so probably Iron Tail isn't the best idea.

Whoops, it was suppose to be Battle Armor. And I don't have access to Iron Tail, so I didn't include it. If anyone thinks Iron Tail is a good idea, I'd need access to a parent to breed it on first.

With agility, you can afford to run adamant. Also, adamant makes for a great assault vest user. Idk about careful, I don't use him that way without AV.

Yeah, iron tail since it learns night slash via level up.

Right, it's more of a question for the community - whether or not Iron Tail as an egg move is worth it. Hopefully others will chime in.

If Iron Tail indeed gets the vote, I will be able to provide you a parent. I can catch a parent from the previous gen, tutor it, and hand it to you.

Curses lol. I saw it leared Pursuit, but didn't notice night slash. Now I shall go off to the breeding materials requested board to request an iron tail parent.

Y'all know my thoughts on egg moves that a pokemon learns via level up... >_>

That said, I bet no one will ever use Iron Tail lol. The first set looks fine, I'm not sure Skorupi needs 2 sets really but I'm just thinking of our cloners there.

I was just proposing two sets. Was seeing what people thought of each to see which one I'd do. If people had interest in both, I'd be fine doing two, but its not necessary.

I got a gligar with iron tail, so I have it for a possible egg move now, and I added a poll to see what set do people want me to make.

Also, what are everyone's thoughts on the natures of the two Drapion? Should the first be Jolly or should I switch it to Adamant? And for the second set, do you like Careful or should I go with another nature?

If you're going for a bulkier AV style set, go for adamant, but jolly is not bad on 95 base speed. Same on the second, if you want a full specially defensive, go for careful, if you want AV, adamant is the way to go.

Do you have the pokemon bred and finished up? To speed up the distribution process, we will be collecting the completed pokemon as they get finished, so let's coordinate the transfer of this pokemon over to me (or any cloner) at your nearest convenience. Thank you!
