Dragonite

hey there!
I just need an opinion about my Dragonite, its level it's 55 and it learned these moves:

Surf
Ice beam
Fly
Wing attack

does it look weak? or should I teach other moves?

Not too good... give it Outrage or Dragon Claw. If you go with Outrage, equip a Perism Berry on it. Get rid of Fly an' Wing Attack. Then Put Aerial Ace on it too. Cut Surf for Thunderbolt or Rest.

Good but mine knows;

Dragon Claw
Thunder
Ice Beam
Wing Attack

Ideal moveset:
Dragon Dance
Thunderbolt
Earthquake
Dragon Claw

The problem is Dragonite hardly ever has time to use Dragon Dance an' get away with an EQ afterward. Unless yur in Net Battle an' have it's speed EV maxed out, not a good idea. Or if you just play around with pathetic gamers an' wanna make them cry when you max out yur attack an' speed.

It depeds who Dragonite is fighting. I wouldn't know though because I've never actually used one. It takes too long to train up because Dratini and Dragonair learn few good moves and take a life age of Middle-Earth to grow, even if they are traded.

A Dragonite should have Ice Beam, just in case...

ND: True... very true...

Ice Beam does come in handy but not if you plan to fight other dragons, you still want the Outrage+ Perism Berry effect. Not only is it high power but it is powered up 'cause of the fact that Dragonite is Dragon. Stick to the types of the Pokes to pick moves first, then add to it.

Mine is good...

Level 66
Outrage
Fire Blast
Waterfall
Dragon Claw

ShadowGX: Yeah, Dragon Claw is good to put on him.

PokMayhem44: No it isn't.

what happen if i catch 200 pokemon

nintendo_dude it is good. I beat the whole Elite 4 with it.

Ok, but it can be improved. I didn't mean it was bad or anything. Anyway:
Keep Dragon Claw, Outrage is optionable but normally I'd drop it for Thunderbolt, drop Waterfall for Surf and Fire Blast for Flamethrower.

The_King_Of_Game: I don't know.

lv 99 dragonite @ leftovers
thunderbolt
flamethrower
ice beam
earthquake

LVL 100 Dragonite @ dragon claw
thunder
rain dance
outrage
surf

from lvl 5 dratini, pain in the rear to train it, but worth it. reason why i used the raindance/thunder vs. the thunderbolt is that most cases that you would opt to use thunderbolt would take 2 turns to cause opponent to faint anyways, seeing as dragonite doesnt have the same type bonus. also, using rain dance, i can opt to use thunder repeatedly, and it wont miss.

alot of pokemon that other people use that you would actually use electric moves against have high sp. def, so thunderbolt from a non-electric type is nearly never enough. if you know they can 1 hit-ko you(ie. they're going to use blizzard or ice beam), but you have first go, take the chance with thunder, because its strong enough for the 1 hit-ko against them.

You can beat the Elite 4 with a peanut. It's so easy! Well, if yur not an average trainer it can be hard. At least get rid of Waterfall on the poor creature...

The Elite Four are easy, especially the Hoenn ones. The only ones I thought gave the slightest challenge were the Johto ones and I still wiped the floor with them.

I thought the second time Kanto ones were the hardest. Unless you spent most of yur time on one party or just a couple monsters like I did, then it's not. But for a newer trainer, it might pose the biggest challenge.

Ahh wellz, we best be back to Dragonite now.

I always have a team of six different types (normally Fire, Water, Grass, Electric, Psychic Ice, although this time in Leaf Green I have Fire/Flying, Water/Ice, Rock/Water, Electric/Steel, Grass/Poison and Normal, try to gues swho they are). They were quite challenging, but not so bad really.

Dragonite takes way too long to train.

I just use my favs. On Emerald, my favs happen to be the best team I can have. I just need to work on the moves a bit more... infinite TM's helps.

I know, an it takes so long to evolve too. It's not even worth waitin' for.
