They wanted us to do the new
starters but we in Europe doesn't have either
Diamond nor Pearl released yet so it will be some oldies.
This week we are reviewing Crobat.
Crobat
Ability: Inner Focus
With this ability it will not loose any focus by flinching.
Pretty good.
Nature: Adamant
Atk: 306
Speed: 394
This will make sure your Crobat gets stronger but at the cost of
it's Sp.
Atk.
The other stats aren't needed. But great Speed.
Item: Bright Powder
Moves:
1) Swift
2) Confuse Ray
3) Toxic
4) Hyper Beam
Now this will make sure you will hit as much as you can because
of the
Bright Powder.
The strategy here is simple, Confuse, Toxic, Hyper Beam. If the
Fly/Dig use
Swift and you make sure a hit.
Sure Crobat isn't strong but he can have fun with the enemy.
Rating:
3.5/5
As I said, not the best but sure to have fun with =)
Crobat is one of the faster Pokemon. The main problems with
Crobat are: a small move set and weaknesses to ice, psychic,
rock, and electric.
With that said, here are some battle strategies for Crobat

Crobat
A fast, strong sweeper with nice same-type-bonus moves of Sludge
Bomb and Aerial Ace plus various other uses such as hazing away
stat boosts or disruption with toxic.
Hi everyone. Welcome to another Pokémon of the Week. Today we’re
reviewing Crobat, the bat Pokémon.
I have to admit I was lucky last week when I was facing the
second gym leader of DP and my Zubat evolved into Golbat and
Crobat a level after that. Crobat has been one of my favorites
since Pokémon Stadium 2. It has a great speed and attack and
yes, it can beat Alakazam. Great type combination and great
movesets for this one as well…
Unfortunately its ability is nothing to be so excited. Inner
focus prevents flinching, that’s it…
Let’s move on to the move combinations I’ll start for
combinations for the GBA and then I’ll be introducing move
combinations for the new DP games…
Great set, if you use it properly it will beat one of your foe’s
Pokémon and probably hurt badly or even poison another one. It
is fast and strong, a physical sweeper.
This one is the anti-tank, use haze and keep sweeping,
eventually you’ll win without a problem.
Crobat.
Nature: Jolly (+ Speed, - Special attack).
Equip: Leftovers.
EV´s: 252 HP, 129 Defense, 129 Special defense.
- Toxic
- Haze
- Confuse ray
- Whirlwind
I have to say I totally hate this set, but it works. Take this
one as your first Pokémon of the battle and you will have a
great advantage against most Pokémon, if you see a steel type,
switch or use whirlwind
DP.
First of all, remember the physical / special attack
consideration has changed for DP, so some of our reviews have to
change as well to fit the new criteria.
When should I use this Pokémon?
Just use it, almost any situation is great to use this good
Pokémon, just remember to train it with the proper EV’s.
What should I use against this Pokémon?
If you are not facing a Hazer, use tanks. Strong steel types as
Steelix will work as well. Use type advantages wisely.
Bottom line:
Times are changing, but this Pokémon is still as good as I
remember. One of the most competitive Pokémon.
Remember, If you have DP versions and want my number please Send
me an e-mail with yours to reeve.ryu@gmail.com As soon as I can
import my GBA Pokémon to Diamond, I’ll be trading some pretty
good Pokémon; legendaries, starters, Feebas, and stuff like
that. Thanks and see you on Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.
