My recommendation is to teach it Substitute, Pain Split, and whatever else for the last two moves (preferably Shadow Ball and Focus Blast for type coverage).

Oh hey, have I ever told you guys my love for Blissey?

Hey, I have a Sub Pain Split Gengar with those two moves...

I also have a Blissey.

My team gemerally barely meets the average level of each gym, or is even rather underlevelled (in the case of Cianwood my team was mostly level 21-24 while Chuck's pokemon were near or at level 30). I just can't be bothered. Thankfully I have my totally legit level 100 Arceus (honestly, it's legit, i got it from an event held not long ago) to cheese my way through gyms if I have to.

I blame the pokemon in the nearby areas not being properly levelled for good training. When I was levelling my pokemon to take on Bugsy's Scyther it was done purely on level 5-8 Zubat's and Slowpokes. Not saying it was difficult or it couldn't be done, it just took ages. I mean, they could have thrown us a few lv 11 or 12's to speed it up a little...

Well, I started playing Diamond again seeing as I have no $$ for HG/SS. I am trying to find a decent Plant Pokemon to counter my Rival's Empoleon. Any suggestion's?

Against Empoleon specifically, you'd probably be better off with an electric type, since steel/water is neutral to grass. (alternatively, you could trade someone for a torterra and use ground type attacks)

Is there a ground/fighting pokemon in this generation?

Nope, no ground/fighting types. I actually had to check, as it seems like something we could've had already >.>

As I'm breeding pokes for Mauve, I could give you a baby Turtwig or Mudkip (Because I herd u *is shot*), who both have evolutions with Ground-type moves. Just remember that ground is weak to water and that makes both of those guys neutral to Empoleon's main attacks.

Also, it's D/P. Shinx and it's evolutions are all electric, which are handy for Empoleon.

That would be cool if you could. I do have a Shinx (in which I've named Thor) and has already evolved into a Luxio already. But I find him so hard to raise because (imo) there seems to be no decent move set for him. I just got to Hearthome so I should be okay given how strong my Kadabra is right now.

My current set up is...

Budew lvl 18
Monferno lvl 18
Kadabra lvl 21
Staravia lvl 18
Gyarados lvl 20
Machop lvl 16

I know I can get an Eevee here which I may swap out for Budew and raise to Leafeon or Umbreon. I am leaning towards the latter so I have a good pure Dark type.

Well, I can trade you any of the Gen 1, 2, or 4 starters right now, but Gen 3 starters like Mudkip are on Platinum, which I can't find right now as I'm moving between buildings right now >.>

Anywho, my SoulSilver FC is:

Trainer name is Julford, but you could call me Sally and I'd still show up :P

EDIT: I'll be available about an hour from now.
