Why haven't I got Pokemon White yet?
Lestat was wondering what do think of Shiftry as a pokemon (Competitive sense). Since he is one of my favs.

Well, Shiftry's are amongst one of the most weakness filled pokemon in the game. It has 5 2x weaknesses and one 4x weakness, and it's overall base stats (480), in my opinion, isn't that good as well, especially since it's a 3rd evolution pokemon. It has good Attack, Sp. Atk and Speed though, so with a bit of work you can get more out of him.
Considering that, a Jolly Chlorophyll Shiftry that's EV trained for Speed and Attack could have it's advantages. Paired up with Sunny Day, you'll get a massive boost to it's speed, allowing you to overcome most of the pokemon that could potentially use any weakness related move. Giving it any of the type super effective damage reduction berry to help you resist that first attack could also help you set up Sunny day, though the sheer amount of weaknesses would have you guessing which type of berry to use.

That seems like alot of work...... I think I may just stick with psychic pokemon.....
