Weak to Water, Ghost, Dark, Ground, and Rock.  Sounds like a bad combination, as those are really common move types.

Surf, Shadow Ball, Crunch, Earthquake, and Rockslide are pretty frequently used.

still, it has a wide range of pokemon that are weak to it(grass, bug, fighting, poison, steel, ice). and im not saying its good for competitive battling, the only good "fairy" legendary pokemon they've made has been mew, simply cuz mew can learn anything(the other "fairy" legendaries being jirachi, manaphy, shaymin, and celebi)

I only really consider competitive aspects of Pokemon these days.  Beating the AI is so easy it might as well be taken out of the game altogether.

Me neither, but I might. I heard if you face Slowpoke he gives you 2 HP points. Now do you have to face only Slowpoke until you level up or one slowpoke is good enough or what?

the more you train against one specific pokemon the more you get.......like if you train on pidgeys only you get some obscenely high speed EVs.....i used a 10x exp hack one time and got a +7 on speed on the level up after killin one pidgey....it was insane

You can only get so many EV points into one stat at a time, and I believe that number is 256.  However, every 4 EV points translates into 1 stat point.  So, you really only need to put 252 into a stat.  The total EV points you can get is 510, so most people pump up two stats to 252 and one to 8.

For instance, on my Starmie, I put 252 EV points into Sp. Att., 252 into Speed, and 8 into HP.

Depending on how many EV points a pokemon gives once you defeat it, you divide 252 by that number to see how many times you'll need to kill it.  A Magnemite gives 1 Sp. Att. point, while Magneton gives 2, so you'll only need to kill Magneton 126 times in comparison to killing Magnemite 252 times.

Get it?  D:

IVs also factor in, but they're pretty much luck-based, so I don't worry about them too much.

its not necessarily how much you kill it as much as how much of the current levels exp comes from killing that pokemon......how else would you explain my 7 speed stats in one level from killing just one pidgey

EXP doesn't matter at all.

One Pidgey isn't going to level you up all on its own.  Unless you used berries to wipe the EVs already on whatever pokemon you were using, some EVs will already exist from the pokemon you killed before killing the Pidgey that made you level up.  I would guess Raticate, as it's common and gives you two EV speed stats per kill.

Thanks Turbo that actually really helped. What would you recommend for Typhlosion? Sp. Attack and defense to be my main focus?

im talking about using a 10x exp hack, the only thing i killed before the thing leveled up was one pidgey, with the 10x exp it grew a level and got +7 on the speed stat

I forgot about the hack.

The hack treats each kill like you just killed ten of the pokemon.  So, if you killed one Pidgey, you got 10 EV points.  That is 2 Speed points right there.  Couple that with you possibly using using the Macho Brace, thus doubling your Effort Points gained, that brings you up to 4 Speed points.  It's also possible that you had left-over Effort Points from a previous battle that didn't quite get to 4, and you have 23 possible points.  Couple that with the 10 XP thing, and you get to 29/30/31 (don't feel like doing the math).  Divide that by 4, and you have 7.

Has nothing to do with the EXP gained.  If it did, killing a level 100 Pidgey would give your more Effort Points than a level 1 Pidgey; that is simply not how it works, as Effort Points are based on evolutionary stages and not level, thus not effected by EXP.

Thanks Turbo that actually really helped. What would you recommend for Typhlosion? Sp. Attack and defense to be my main focus?

Well, let's look at Typhlosion's base stats:

HP (266 - 360) Attack (173 - 267)    Defense (161 - 255)  Sp. Attack (223 - 317)  Sp. Defense (175 - 269)  Speed (205 - 299)

These are taken off Serebii.net, in case you want to see for yourself.

The above stats are for a neutral nature at level 100.  Tell me what your nature on your Typhlosion is and I can help a little more.  Anyway, as you can see, Typhlosion's best stats are Special Attack, HP, and Speed, in that order.

While you can boost his lower stats in order to balance him out, it's not advisable, as he would be weaker overall since he isn't specialized in one field.  Since his defenses are low, he is pretty fragile; therefore, you want to avoid wasting points in Defense, Sp. Def., and HP and invest in Sp. Attack and Speed.  So, throw 252 points into both of them and the other 8 wherever you want (I would suggest Sp. Def so you might be able to survive one Surf).

You'll also need a moveset to go along with this build.  I would suggest Flamethrower/Fire Blast (I personally opt for Flamethrower as FB seems to be too inaccurate, but there are constant debates on this topic, and it really boils down to whether you're willing to miss an attack here and there in favor of higher base damage.), Sunny Day, Solarbeam (the combo of Sunny Day and Solarbeam makes Solarbeam a one-move attack while also giving Fire-type moves 10% more damage), and Focus Blast for Rock/Dark types like Tyranitar and the ever-dreaded Blissey.

That's only my suggestion, feel free to go with whatever you like.  Afro

I have a question which might be nooby, but that means someone should be able to answer it. Are Ground and Rock attacks physical or special? I mostly want to know for Earthquake since the Earthquake/Protect or Flying Type combo is pretty popular.
