[size=2]POKEMON GLITCH ANALYSIS
[/size]
Today, we have the two (yes two) pokemon that single handedly brought the term "Glitch Pokemon" to use here today.
MissingNo/'M
Yes, they share an analysis because they have the same stats and moveset other than MissingNo gets Substitue and 'M gets pound (sounds like he was ripped off) Onto the base Stats
From Bulbapedia (Well, Melchior is down, and we don't have their BASE stats, so stop booing)
HP: 33
Attack: 137
Defense: 1
Special: 29
Speed: 6
You see his enormous attack, and then nothing else. But, I have a moveset here for him:
Set 1:
"Sweep? No."
Double Edge/Tri Attack
Thunder Wave
Earthquake
Seismic Toss/Bubblebeam
This MissingNo set tries to sweep something with it's crap defences and speed, and massive attack stat. Bubblebeam is there mainly because of the speed drop, although if there were an R/B/Y stat calculator, I could see what it could do against the likes of Onix, who you should be Earthquaking anyways. Thunder Wave is there because of a switch, although you should use MissingNo only when their entire team is already a combination of Paralysed, Sleeping (not from rest) and frozen. Double Edge is for STAB, although with his Crap HP, you might consider the weaker Tri Attack, if only for no recoil. Earthquake is for Gengar/Rock types (because Gengar doesn't get levitate in R/B/Y) And Seismic Toss for consistient Damage against stuff that can take your other attacks. It's a shame he doesn't get Hyper Beam for a finisher (It's glitched in R/B/Y)
Counters: Anything with an attack and more than base 7 speed (everything)
Opinion: He has good attack, but so does Dragonite, and Dragonite has a move pool and defenses. And a learnset. Don't catch one of these unless you collect useless pokemon, and use him just for your infinite item cheat, it's all he's useful for.
Yes I did just copy/paste this of of Sparta, but it's my work anyways.
