Rock Polish or Sword Dance?
- Thread starter Emerald
- Start date
Personally, I'd give it Swords Dance. It's speed is pretty low, only reaching a max of 236, so you should spend your time focusing on its attack. Can you imagine getting hit with a Stone Edge backed by 471 attack, 1 or 2 Swords Dance, STAB, and possibly a critical hit?
Yah, definately go with what they said.
Wait, Cranidos doesn't learn swords dance normally, does he? If he doesn't, then where is the TM that contains it, or what Pokemon do you have to breed with a Cranidos to get that move?

Either can work, really. Rampardos has a near-base 100 HP to help out out with its poor DEF and SD, anyway. If you were to EV train it for SPD and ATK, then go for Rock Polish, as few Pokemon can withstand its sky-high Attack score, anyway. If you go HP and ATK for EVs, then choose Swords Dance. Either way, I probably wouldn't use the two moves at all, and go with a moveset similar to Stone Edge, Earthquake, Zen Headbutt and Crunch/Hammer Arm with a Choice Band.
Ah, that's why. I dropped into the rewards thing once, saw how much the prices had skyrocketed, then turned around and walked right out before considering any of the items. Meh.
For that alone, I'm teaching my Cranidos rock polish.
