In the Distribution Stage

I don't really know where to go with the egg moves for this thing. I was thinking about doing another set for doubles, but I don't know if anyone would actually want one, and given that I don't do doubles... I don't really know if this thing is great in doubles... so yeah...

If anyone has any suggestions, just post here. It doesn't have the best of egg moves... so they are more or less throwaway.

Hahahahahahahahaha

haaahahahahaaahahahaha
aaahhaaahhahaha

aahhahaha

ha.

Okay I'm done laughing at the name of the set.

I'd say Growth instead of Rollout.
Other that it's all good.

I was going to go with Growth too... until I realized it learned it at level 6... why is it even an egg move?

The name of the set is hilarious. I love it.

This thing actually has some use in doubles, especially when it learns Rage Powder. This allows your ally to set-up, which is not very common in doubles due to the normally fast-paced all-out offensive nature of doubles.

This thing also does not have great egg moves so anything really would be fine. The set listed can actually already work for doubles though I don't think breeding for HP is worth it. I mean it's an odd choice but it might work for the surprise factor.

Regardless, only one set is needed for Foongus Amoongus.

I don't really see the need for hp, especially on a defensive set. Stun spore is the only necessary egg move, and drop rollout for rage powder. Other than that, all good!

It already learns Rage Powder though. And the main reason I had HP fire was for pokemon like Ferrothorn which won't be affected by Spore, Stun Spore, or Rage Powder to potentially prevent it from being completely walled by grass types.

Oh whoops, I misread the previous post, I thought he said it was an egg move.

And yeah, I can see that being useful. Also, this thing can run a really, really effective assault vest set with hp fire. I just realized it gets giga drain and regenerator, which is unbelievably good for an AV user. I actually propose a modest attacking set with hp fire and the regular bold set with or without. Since it gets spore, everyone is expecting it to do that. I remember now this thing paired with slowbro being a terrifying regenerator core.

Alright, I'm backtracking now, I thought it's special attack was higher than it actually is. 85 isn't great. We should probably focus on what it does best, pivot. Bold is best, stay with that.

I was going to say, its special attack isn't that good, but was willing to try if people wanted it. Though anyone have any ideas on the egg moves? They are pretty much throwaways outside of Stun Spore, but I'd like to get people's opinions at least, as Roll out seems pretty... meh

These are fine.

Actually, Body Slam is better than rollout I think.

Also, lol at "discussionary phase".

Body Slam is better but apart from Stun Spore they're all filler anyway so this looks good to me.

I think the way to go with the EMs should be Defense Curl, Endure, Gastro Acid, Stun Spore.

I added a poll for the last egg move just because its easier that way, and this still has most of the 48 hours left for discussion anyway, so if anyone cares enough to vote, they likely will.

If this thing ends in a tie I'm going to do whatever is easiest, because they are throwaway anyway.

you uneducated swine how dare you

I be has an edumacation I's tells u wat!

I'm really glad the moves sit at 3-3-3 right now.

Well this poll isn't doing its job...

AND THE WINNER IS BODY SLAM!!!

Hmmm... I just realized. Amoongus has a base speed of 30... should I be going for a 31/0/31/30/31/0 spread... O.O

I got a 31/30/31/30/31/30 one... so its "finished"

Yeah, with stun spore, honestly, the speed probably helps. Nicely done Zoid. Now focus your hidden power breeding abilities on me so I can get this accursed Oddish done.

*focusing*

Just wondering, if I rebreed this to get the 31/0/31/30/31/30 spread, would people still want the 31/30/31/30/31/30 spread? Or should I just give one? And if so... which?

The 0 atk would be optimal, but I don't really think it matters. The 30 atk would be fine

Yeah, don't worry about it Zoid.

Everyone is going to get a 31/30/31/30/31/30 foongus. I just got my 5th one with this spread, I'm done with it lol

Ignore this post... it was a moment of weakness...

And now I have the 31/0/31/30/31/30 Foongus. Only took a shiny and 5 31/30/31/30/31/30 Foongus to get... but I finally got one!!!

(also, thanks Seph for the ditto that made it possible )
