Iron Defense, despite it's nice jam-prevention ability, isn't really the best way to appeal. Take your aggron to the move tutor and teach it Metal Claw if you want an awesome aggron tough-set.

Aerial Ace and swift work out nicely, but Steel Wing seems out of place unless you want your contestant to double as a battler. Steel Wing being replaced with Agility should work out great in a cool contest.

Thee is a combo for Mightyena, it's just not the right one for the desired contest.

Shadow Deoxys:

As Sora has corrected already, I want to urge you on. You have a nice moveset, keep it up!

I've got some really successful pokes here:

{azurill} Max cute @ scarf
Splash
Charm
Tail Whip
Water Gun

I don't remember how I did it but it just made it.

{claydol} Max Cool + Tough @ each scarf at intervals
Ancientpower
Sandstorm
Hyper Beam
Cosmic Power

Usually, I'd go for a status up and then break out Sandstorm and Hyper Beam.

{muk} Max Tough @ scarf
Acid Armor
Minimize
Sludge
Sludge Bomb

I'll juice up with Acid Armor and go for Sludge then Sludge Bomb or use Minimize to mix up the audience.

{shuppet} Max Smart @ scarf
Destiny Bond
Curse
Screech
Night Shade

I had to do careful breeding for this masterpiece. It blew away the competion so easily. Anyway, I'd mess up the other contestants with Screech and Night Shade but end with Curse to be last and get a combo with Destiny Bond! One time, I even had it make the crowd wild. It was something like 24 stars, more than could be shown.

{feebas} Max beauty @ scarf (And I got the painting of it, not milotic!)
Surf
Ice Beam
Blizzard
Dive

Self-explanatory really. Usually I went with Dive then Surf the whole time. Ice Beam and Blizzard in desparate situations, if any.

I've got plenty other goodies but I didn't want to write that much. I'll do it more if anyone wants it. I've got really good tough pokes, too.

IS there something wrong with rating and not being official?


Being a rater, and understanding a Moderators perspective, yes. If you want to rate simply PM TCM. It's not that hard, so please, everybody, leave the Rating to raters. Suggestions are fine, as most of you have been doing, but really, it's not that hard to send a Private Message. :roll:

And I'm only saying this because I'm a rater, I cannot control what you do. However, I'm sure the creator of the topic, and Moderators would agree.

Hey Truestar...

I am sorry, but I cannot keep up with Pokemon and school at the same time. I can only control one guide... Besides, I tried reviewing the Contests... It is kinda hard for me...

So plz, take me off the list. Sorry again.

Hi. since i mostly play LG and i know it like the back of my hand, I am new to contests. I just got to Lilycove in Emerald. Wated a lot of Pecha berries on {wingull}, and it got 3 ribbons in 2 days!!!

Water Gun
Supersonic
Growl

Strategy 1: Alternate between Water Gun and Supersonic.
Strategy 2: Supersonic until you go last, then Growl your way to victory!!!

And here's one that i have never tried out:

{wynaut}
Charm
Encore
Destiny Bond

Alternate between Charm and Encore, and use D Bond on the last turn.

EDIT: Make that 3 ribbons in 2 hours.

My {milotic} can do well in Master Rank Beauty Contests as long as our dear friend Taria ({altaria}) is there.
I'm always 3rd in the lineup, with Taria behind me. I use Dive, she uses Hyper Beam.
Next turn: I'm 2nd in the lineup, with Taria in front of me. She does nothing. I use Surf. {milotic} stood out much more than the Pokemon before. "!!" The appeal combo went over well. {milotic}'s Beauty went over great. (total 9 hearts)

Here are some of my prized contest winners *Moves listed are attacks they had before*

{regice} Name: Prisman / Type: Cool
Attacks: Super Power, Zap Cannon, Ice Beam, Ancient Power
Extra: Held Red Scarf, Maxed Coolness, Has a Lonely nature.

{wynaut} Name: Bean Sdr. (Bean Soldier) / Type: Cute
Attacks: Counter/Mirror Coat (can't remember which I used), Encore, Destiny Bond, Splash (As bad as it is in battle it really helped in the master contest)
Extra: Held Pink Scarf, Maxed out Cuteness, Has a Naive nature.

{regirock} Name: BarrelRock / Type: Tough
Attacks: Super Power, Ancient Power, Rock Throw, Curse
Extra: To be completely honest BarrelRock didn't like Toughness because he had a Gentle nature and he didn't have a Scarf. It was a miracle that he made it all the way to the top. (Maybe he had all Tough moves, but who knows)

{milotic} Name: Water Girl / Type: Beauty
Attacks: Hydro Pump, Water Pulse, Rain Dance, Attract
Extra: When I got her as a Feebas her Mild nature made her perfect to be both a Milotic and a Beauty contest winner. Held Blue Scarf, Maxed out Beauty.

(Didn't win the Master Rank Smart Contest..... Yet.)

That's not possible...

Secret Power = Smart
Cosmic Power = Cool
Ancient Power = Tough
Explosion/Selfdestruct = Beauty

Its missing Cute. Btw, theres a problem with the moveset...

Secret Power only gives one heart for appeal. You will be left in the dust in later rounds. Cosmic Power is okay, since it doesn't bore the judge. Ancient Power is like Secret Power, it only has one heart for appeal. Explosion/Selfdestruct is a great skill to have, but its only good for one use.

The {claydol} you speak of is not possible...

The smart Cacturne! (it likes green pokeblocks)

Faint Attack
Needle Arm
Hidden Power

I start out with Faint Attack (I always go first because of maxed out Smartness and Green Scarf) then either hidden power or needle arm
then I repeat

Here is a simple yet effective way I use on my pokemon for attacks in the contest.

Attack 1---> Combo Starter
Attack 2---> Combo Move
Attack 3---> 2 hearts or more Jam/4 star move
Attack 4---> Final

or a moveset like this,

Attack 1---> Combo Starter
Attack 2---> Combo Move
Attack 3---> Combo Starter
Attack 4---> Final Combo Move

These movesets are very simple, and almost every pokemon has these type attacks. The first is average that I see on my street. Pretty balanced and safe. The second is basically the same, except making the final move a huge combo in the end, thus scoring you tons of points. Keep this in min when choosing attacks for your pokemon! :)
