Iron Ball
Why is there a point of having an Iron Ball? The only thing that makes it useful is that it gives the most power on the move Fling... Tesh 12:26, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
- Trick also combos nicely with it. --DarkfireTaimatsu 19:28, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
- You could have the Pokémon holding it use Trick Room and then the Speed cut would become a good thing. Shiny Noctowl 19:39, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
Oh, it just seems like a pointless object. Never mind. Tesh 19:48, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- If the pokemon holding it uses a ground type move like earthquake it will be able to hit flying type and levitating pokemon. Or thats what i believed, havent tried it out yet.
Black Sludge
I've always wondered, is there any advantage to using Black Sludge on a Poison-type Pokémon as opposed to Leftovers? Blink 17:37 16 August 2007 (GMT)
- You could use Trick or Switcheroo. Or, if the opponent uses Thief, Covet, Trick, or Switcheroo on the first turn because they don't know what you're holding, and they aren't a Poison-type, they will get hurt. --Shiny Noctowl 16:48, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
- Or, if you're required to give each Pokémon a different hold item, it's the equivalent of being able to use 2 Leftovers. Zurqoxn 00:04, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
- I see. I thought it might restore a little more health or something.
