pokemon platinum team query?
Hi guys,
I am buying the pokemon platinum game on friday and was looking some advice on a good pokemon team. I don't understand the implications of a pokemon's nature, but if someone could give me advice on particular natures to go for with these 6 pokemon (and good hold items) that I'm thinking of catching, it would be greatly appreciated....
Snover - Ice/Grass
Staryu/Starmie - Water/Psychic
Chimchar - Fire/Fighting
Gible - Dragon/Ground
Drifloon - Ghost/Flying
Magnemite/Magnezone - Electric/Steel
What do you guys think?
I just realised that I cannot catch a staryu as I planned to do until I get a super-rod which is after fighting the elite four. Could I get it in pokemon pearl and transfer it to platinum or do a need a national dex first?
The pokemon's nature gives you a 10% increase in a certain stat and a 10% decline simultaneously in the same pokemon but of a different stat. Let's say I had a Weavile. The Weavile is Jolly natured. This means that I get a 10% increase in my Weavile's speed stat and a 10% decrease in my Weavile's Special attack stat. Natures are crucial in the competititve battling stage of Pokemon. The right nature can determine whether that pokemon wins or loses.
Now regarding your team. Magnemite/zone covers Gible. Chimchar also covers Gible from Ice and grass types. Gible can switch in on Starmie/ryu and Drifloon if either feels threatened by an electric attack. Drifloon and Magnezone can cover any psychic or ground types that threaten Chimchar. It looks very all around from my perspective. Smogon.com doesn't do movesets for NFE's which make little cup battlers suffer.
The best I can do is give you some useful movesets for your starmie and magnezone.
Magnezone
Item:Life Orb
EV(Effort Values):88 HP / 88 Atk / 248 SpAtk / 84 Spe
-Thunderbolt
-Hidden Power Ice
-Magnet Rise(very useful for ground encounters)
-Explosion
Starmie
Item:Choice Specs/Choice Scarf
Ability:Natural Cure
EVs:4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
-Surf/Hydro Pump
-Thunderbolt
-Ice Beam
-Trick/Grass Knot/Psychic
These are my reccomendations I would strongly suggest that you visit these pages for several other movesets for the pokemon I gave you.

Also You can't transfer key items via pal park. You need to beat the elite four and talk to a fisherman in the fight area in order to get the super rod. Here's a hint, you can fish for staryu with the super rod in Canalave and Sunnyshore City.
