角金魚 怎麼配招

Moves Waterfall is a hard-hitting STAB move and is Goldeen's best option for breaking past bulky foes. Drill Run is a very important coverage move, as it threatens Electric-types such as Magnemite and Chinchou. Knock Off cripples bulky switch-ins to Goldeen, such as Foongus and Ferroseed. Poison Jab allows Goldeen to OHKO Cottonee and 2HKO Spritzee after Stealth Rock damage; however, Megahorn is an option to hit most Grass-types harder than Goldeen's other moves. Set Details Goldeen's Attack and Speed EVs are maximized, allowing it to hit as hard and fast as possible. A Jolly nature is used so that Goldeen can hit 17 Speed. The remaining EVs give Goldeen a point in Special Defense to let it check special attackers better, especially Electric-types such as Magnemite and Chinchou. A Life Orb is the preferred item to maximize Goldeen's damage output. Using 0 HP IVs lowers Goldeen's HP to 19, so it only takes 1 damage from Life Orb recoil. Eviolite can be used instead to boost Goldeen's defenses, giving it more bulk and opportunities to switch in at the cost of some firepower. If using Eviolite, the HP IVs can be set to 31. The ability, Lightning Rod, is the main reason Goldeen has a niche; it turns Goldeen from just another mediocre Water-type to one of the best Electric-type counters in the metagame. Usage Tips Goldeen should be sent in on Electric-types, as it hard walls them thanks to Lightning Rod. Goldeen can destroy most Electric-types one-on-one with Drill Run, but keep in mind that Electric-types without Hidden Power Grass are likely going to switch out of Goldeen anyway. Use this opportunity to predict the switch; Knock Off is a good catch-all move, removing the foe's item. Team Options Goldeen is quite prone to being worn down quickly due to the amount of switching it does, as well as Life Orb recoil. Therefore, teammates that can remove entry hazards, such as Archen and Vullaby, are appreciated. In turn, Goldeen can handle Electric-types for these Pokemon. Fire-types such as Ponyta, Larvesta, and Vulpix make for good teammates, as they can easily break through Grass-types for Goldeen. Any Pokemon that appreciates a solid switch-in for Electric-types will enjoy having Goldeen as a partner; this includes nearly all Flying- and Water-types. Be sure to have a solid answer to Grass-types if pairing Goldeen with another Water-type. Clerics such as Spritzee and Lickitung pair well with Goldeen, as Goldeen hates all forms of status and often risks being burned by switching into Chinchou's Scald.

Goldeen can make use of its good Attack, Speed, and usable bulk combined with Lightning Rod to serve as a niche counter to some Pokemon while still being able to deal significant damage to the opposing team. Being a Water-type with an immunity to Electric-type attacks, Goldeen hard counters most Magnemite, Chinchou, and Return-less Ponyta, and is bulky enough to take a hit from most other physical attackers and respond with an attacking move or Knock Off. Aqua Tail is a strong physical STAB that can hit hard thanks to Goldeen's good base 67 Attack; it is used over Waterfall because its extra power gets some important OHKOs and 2HKOs against Pokemon such as Mienfoo. However, if you can provide enough entry hazard support and residual damage, Waterfall is a slightly more reliable option. Megahorn complements Aqua Tail well and allows Goldeen to hit Grass-types for heavy damage, OHKOing Snover and 2HKOing Lileep. Drill Run is the best coverage move for Goldeen, hitting the Pokemon Goldeen hard counters, such as Chinchou and Magnemite, super effectively. Knock Off allows Goldeen to provide valuable utility for its team in removing the Eviolites of bulky switch-ins. As Goldeen tends to lure different Pokemon in than Mienfoo—specifically Grass-types such as Ferroseed or Lileep—it can provide support to Pokemon that Mienfoo is less adept at helping. For example, by luring in Ferroseed, Lileep, Snover, and Porygon (Pokemon that would never switch into Mienfoo) and removing their Eviolites, Goldeen can weaken many of Vullaby's checks and allow it to clean up the opposing team. Goldeen works well with teammates that appreciate its ability to make Magnemite and offensive Chinchou near-useless. Vullaby appreciates Goldeen's ability to shut down some of its checks and soften others with Knock Off; in return, Vullaby can switch into Grass-type attacks and use Brave Bird to check Pokemon that set up on Goldeen. As Goldeen is excellent at luring in Grass-types such as Lileep and Foongus and removing their Eviolites with Knock Off, Pokemon that can break through Lileep and Foongus with this help make for excellent teammates. Tirtouga benefits from Goldeen's ability to switch into Chinchou, and after Goldeen has used Knock Off to remove Lileep and Foongus's Eviolites, Tirtouga can OHKO both Grass-types after a Shell Smash. Goldeen can help Tirtouga further by luring and 2HKOing Croagunk with Drill Run. Although Goldeen can OHKO Snover with Megahorn on the switch (or use Knock Off to remove its Choice Scarf or Eviolite and proceed to outspeed and OHKO with Megahorn), it is still vulnerable to being revenge killed by Choice Scarf Snover and thus appreciates teammates such as Vullaby and Ponyta that can switch into Grass-type attacks. Frillish and Mantyke hard-wall Goldeen, although they don't appreciate Knock Off; carrying a Lileep or even a Magnemite or Chinchou of your own can help deal with them. Goldeen cannot effectively stop setup sweepers such as Axew. Riolu counters Porygon, and can use Protect and Copycat to revenge kill Axew with its own Outrage. In order to get a lot of OHKOes and 2HKOes, Goldeen needs entry hazard support and residual damage. Ferroseed can provide Stealth Rock and/or Spikes, Snover can provide hail residual damage and check Drilbur, and Hippopotas can provide both Stealth Rock and sandstorm for residual damage—although Sandstorm teams may not appreciate stacking up on weaknesses to Grass-type moves with Goldeen.

This set abuses Goldeen's ability, Swift Swim, as well as its advantages over other Rain Dance sweepers in Megahorn, Psybeam, and its greater bulk. Rain-boosted Waterfall hits like a truck, being able to OHKO common threats in Little Cup, such as Gligar and Gastly. Return provides perfect neutral coverage with Waterfall while hitting Water-type resisters, such as Mantyke. Megahorn is the crux of the set, OHKOing Snover, who normally stops Rain Dance teams cold with Snow Warning. It also OHKOes Carvanha and has a chance to OHKO Wynaut after Stealth Rock damage. Rain Dance allows Goldeen to set itself and its teammates up. Psybeam OHKOes Croagunk, another bane of Rain Dance teams. Be warned, however, that Croagunk's vast range of priority attacks will either cripple or outright KO Goldeen. Goldeen's item choice matters a lot to this set. With Life Orb, Goldeen guarantees the OHKO on Wynaut and has a chance to OHKO Munchlax in rain with Waterfall. However, with Oran Berry, Goldeen has a much easier time setting up Rain Dance. It also takes on Croagunk much better due to being able to heal off Croagunk's priority attacks. The EVs give Goldeen maximum Attack and Speed. The rest goes into Defense for an extra point. A 0 HP IV is to reach 19 HP, meaning Goldeen will only take one HP of damage from Life Orb. If Oran Berry is used, the HP IV should be left at 31. It is best for Goldeen to be on a Rain Dance team because Goldeen appreciates having Rain Dance set up before it comes in. The main candidates for Rain Dance setup are Voltorb and Bronzor. Voltorb usually occupies the lead spot, as it can throw off a fast Rain Dance and then use Explosion or hit hard with a STAB Thunder. Bronzor is one of Little Cup's bulkiest Pokemon and it sets up Rain Dance with incredible reliability. Having Rain Dance set up beforehand also means that Goldeen can use Psybeam to hit Croagunk. On the other hand, if Goldeen is setting up Rain Dance itself, it is helpful to support it with Reflect and Light Screen. These screens will increase Goldeen's above-average bulk to levels where it can set up and sweep easily. Bronzor, Abra, and even Slugma can set up screens behindwhich Goldeen can sweep. Goldeen has a huge weakness to Chinchou, only being able to hit it with Return while it OHKOes back with Thunderbolt. Therefore, a Chinchou counter is recommended. Diglett is one of the best Chinchou counters, especially on a rain team. Diglett can switch into Thunderbolt, trap, and OHKO Chinchou with Earthquake. Munchlax can hit Chinchou hard with Return or Earthquake while taking minimal damage from Chinchou's attacks. Munchlax has the added advantage of taking out Mantyke, who can survive Goldeen's attacks.
