(@PhantomUnderYourDesk and @Redstone, I do want your thoughts on this)
OK, first:
Second:
I've been unimpressed with Hidden Power Fire. I've done the math, and to be honest, Hidden Power Fighting doesn't look much better - the math tells me that Hyper Voice does just as much, if not more, because it's a neutral hit. (the only issue with that is the pure steel-type Gararewl, but that's not too common... right?)
I've decided that my best options when facing a steel-type are:
-Hyper Voice the living daylights out of them, like anything else.
-Wish on the way out to set up either FEAR or an Infinite Phasing plan that I'll work on once Roar is patched (exciting~). ***Edit: infinite phasing doesn't work
or, most commonly:
-Switch out.
So, instead, I'm going to use Synchronize to cover Nucleon's other weakness: other nuclear types (Xenoqueen and Nucleon mostly, but I also see a lot of Urayne).
This means, of course, that we can eschew the HP IVs, which makes shiny breeding a whole lot easier (phew~).
So. Back to route 9, and see y'all in a bit!
Fair enough, in the end you're using nucleon so the choice is between extreme easy mode and really easy mode. The small optimizations don't matter that much at that stage so go with what ya feel like.
