  1. 1. All-out lightning blitzer vs Stealth Rock setting elephant



Recommended Posts

The idea is their intended roles in Showdown.

Raikou is generally an all-out attack 'mon (well looking at its sets); Donphan's for spinning hazards (and setting them), although I'm not sure if he's still viable in that regard right now.

 

Anyway, Raikou for a variety of reasons.

  • Is saber-tooth tiger, which also brings some connotations with my high school mascot.
  • Electric-type
  • Good sweeper 'mon for team when needed.
  • No feelings on Donphan, even though Ash had one for a good while.

Ride the thunder!

Anyway. I like Electric types. Ad Raikou is quite cool. While I'm starting to like Suicune more (blame Crystal, the manga not the game) I still like Raikou a lot. He's pretty awesome. Donphan is neat as well. And I like Elephants. Just doesn't appeal to me as much.

Donphan. To be honest, it was (huh, did I say this story before? I lost track) the first pokemon I caught in the Master ball. I did not believe Elm when he said it could catch ANY pokemon WITHOUT fail and Donphan was the first new pokemon I saw after getting the Master Ball so yeah...

Raikou on the other hand is my least favorite of the three beasts. Doesn't mean it isn't cool, but meh, I don't even like it as much as Donphan.

Back when I was a little kid, I caught a Raticate with a Master Ball because I got frustrated that none of my Great and Ultra Balls were working. Basically, we all do dumb things as kids.

 

As it is, I probably like Raikou and Donphan equally, so I'll abstain this round. Though, I might vote for one or the other near the deadline so that both pass, if possible.

I think Raikou's been down this path long enough to know how things ended up.

 

Despite its valiant efforts in the Toughness contests, Donphan stole all of the Contest Spectaculars and in the end, moved on to Round 3.

However, that's not without Donphan being marked by Raikou's comrades in their bingo books.

 

(Then again, do people even use Donphan in contests?)
