::C) '''Covering Weaknesses'''- Many Pokémon are capable of learning moves that can trump one, if not more, types that they would normally be weak to. Water-types, for example, can usually learn Ice attacks to give them an advantage over Grass-type Pokémon. | ::C) '''Covering Weaknesses'''- Many Pokémon are capable of learning moves that can trump one, if not more, types that they would normally be weak to.

:::Obviously, the more types a Pokémon is weak to, the harder this gets; Pokémon with only one weakness (or, in the case of Sableye and Spiritomb, no weaknesses) can usually get by with only 1 move to cover weaknesses, while those with multiple weaknesses may find it impossible to cover them all. | :::Obviously, the more types a Pokémon is weak to, the harder this gets; Pokémon with only one weakness (or, in the case of Sableye and Spiritomb, no weaknesses) can usually get by with only 1 move to cover weaknesses, while those with multiple weaknesses may find it impossible to cover them all. | ||

:::''Baton Passer''- Those who prefer to use stat-raising moves before using Baton Pass would do well with having several stat-raising moves on the one who is going to use Baton Pass (Ninjask is particularly good, since you'll be able to increase both Speed and the stat of your choice in a single turn). Moves that raise stats by two levels are particularly useful. | :::''Baton Passer''- Those who prefer to use stat-raising moves before using Baton Pass would do well with having several stat-raising moves on the one who is going to use Baton Pass (Ninjask is particularly good, since you'll be able to increase both Speed and the stat of your choice in a single turn).
