This week, we randomly selected the number 155, and since 155 is an unevolved Pokemon, that rounds up to number 157 To learn about Pokemon of the Week and how it works, click here. Anyway, this weeks's Pokemon of the week is:

<center>NUMBER 157 ~ TYPHLOSION!

Typhlosion is an intimidating beast, with an inferno on its back and a max Special attack of 348 . Needless to say, that's what the moveset focuses on:

Typhlosion @ Leftovers/Petaya Berry
Ability: Blaze
Nature: Modest (+Special Attack, -Attack)
EVs: 252 Special Attack, 252 Speed, 6 HP
~Sunny Day
~Flamethrower
~Thunderpunch
~Hidden Power *Grass*

Typhlosion does an excellent job as a special sweeper, but can be a good mixed Sweeper as well ([Adamant] Sunny Day, EQ, F-thrower, Rock Slide). Try out whichever one you feel like, but I'd recommend the Special Sweeper.

So yes! Feel free to discuss your opinions about the POTW in this thread.
