What would be the best pokemon to have at level 100?

Question

What im mostly looking for here is type and ability advantage. A few pokemon with a type combination that would cover a wide span of weaknesses. (Side note: I have alot of rare candies)

Answer 1

Best Pokemon? There is no such thing. Neither in the anime, nor in the games.

You need to make things more specific. What exactly do you mean by best right here?

A Pokemon that doesn't have any weaknesses? A Pokemon that has the highest stat total?

And also, are you meaning to use the said Pokemon for beating the game or for playing online with others?





Let me tell you - in game, any Pokemon will work if well trained. You just need to be several levels above the gym leader in a town/city, and you'll be fine.

Online though, there is no best Pokemon, once again. You need to come up with a very balanced team, but even then somebody will beat you with a strategy your team wasn't meant to handle.



Weakness wise, the only two Pokemon that doesn't have any weakness are Spiritomb and Sableye because of their typing.



Stat wise, Arceus, the legendary Pokemon from generation 4, still stands at the top of course.

With a 720 base stat total, the only thing that even comes near is Mewtwo with 680 base stat total.

For non-legendary, it would be Slaking with 670 base stat total. Dragonite, Metagross, Salamence, Tyranitar, Garchomp, and Sazandora(Gen V) are among other Pokemon with high base stat total of 600.

Of course, the person talking about Ulgamoth is wrong in a lot of ways. Ulgamoth has 550 base stat total.



The last advice I can give you for getting closer to making a very great team (not perfect, because no single Pokemon is best) is that you should learn about Natures, IVs, and EV training.

If you use Rare Candy, your Pokemon doesn't get any EV points. Therefore, a Pokemon that has been EV trained to level 50 will have a great chance to defeat the same Pokemon at level 60 or even higher when not EV trained.

Online, people will simply crush your whole team with just one or two Pokemon if you don't EV train and work for a good nature and good IVs.



In the end, there are so many different sets of combination in the online play because a single Pokemon isn't the best.

Answer 2

Well, it depends upon which generation of Pokemon you are playing.



Generation I (Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow/Green): Mewtwo. Mew can be powerful too, coz he knows all TM and HM moves.



Generation II (Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal): Tyranitar



Generation III (Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald and FireRed/LeafGreen): Salamence, though it's so rare.



Generation IV (Diamond/Pearl/Platinum and HeartGold/SoulSilver): I guess its still Salamence.



Generation V (Black and White): Here's my answer. The most powerful Pokemon ever (yes, it's more Powerful than Arceus, legendary Pokemon, would be a Pokemon named Urugamosu, or called as Ulgamoth. He has the highest stats of all Pokemon ever created (yes, he almost maxed out every Attack stat, Special Attack, Defense, Special Defense, etc.) and can learn almost the most powerful moves.



The best thing is that you can catch Ulgamoth twice in the game of Black and White. First, he'll be given as an egg in P2 Lab and it'll hatch to Meraruba. It's a pain training Meraruba and evolve it to Ulgamoth, because Meraruba will evolve only at level 59. However, you can catch Ulgamoth right after you beat the Elite Four first and before you battle Elite Four the second time and become the Pokemon Champion.



If you don't play Black and White, then I guess I spoil you. But believe me, I haven't made a straight 30+ victory on Battle Subway (in Black and White, it is the Battle Frontier) using the conventional Pokemon found in the game and older generations.

Answer 4

If you'll be using them for battles, then you might consider training them seriously instead of feeding 'em with Rare Candies.



Anyway, here's a list of some Pokémon which would be good to be used in battles:

You may pick the hottest Pokémon in use, but some might consider them as over-powered. However, it's still up to you on which Pokémon to train; and of-course, most of all, have fun~!

Answer 5

Spiritomb canbe pretty darn good. If you teach it Nightmare with this other move (i forget) that puts the other pokemon to sleep, you're pretty much unstoppable... because, the other pokemon is asleep.



Unless the other Pokemon has Snore....



But overall it is pretty beast.

Answer 6

I think the best would be tyranatar dragonite gengar charizard and 2 otha pokemon

Answer 7

i had a blastoise that was quite strong and beat almost every pokemon at the elite four.



it wasn't even level 100, but damn it would kill everything.



anyway this is just my opinion.

Answer 8

Swampert

Ludicolo

Answer 9

If you don't want to use a super, I would suggest using a dragon, like dragonite, slamence, or another. Dragons have very few weaknesses and many that are not very effective against it. If you don't care about using a super, go with mewtwo, mew, or arceus

Answer 10

Flareon. If it's the best Fire Pokemon, (Other than Ledgendarys) I think It'd be the best FIRE Pokemon.

Answer 11

Dragonite

Weavile

Mamoswine

Blastoise

Yanmega

and many more

Answer 12

I have a tyranitar and its pretty good when not up against water types. It defeats everything. And Jirachi though you can't get it unless you went to an event or cheated.

Answer 13

Without going to an event I'd have to say mewtwo. It's got REALLY good stats, and if you teach it Physcic, Shadow ball, Aura Sphere and Ice beam it should have no trouble with, well, anything.

Answer 14

Well the basis of a strong pokemon is its attack, special attack, and speed. Look at Salamence.

Answer 15

Magikarp for bragging rights

Answer 16

i think starapter would be.
