What moves should I teach my Shaymin on pokemon diamond?

Im going to a Shaymin event tommorow and I want to know what the best moves to teach it would be.



'If you're going to the UK event, your Shaymin will arrive at Lvl 50 and already know Substitute, Aromatherapy, Seed Flare and Energy Ball, which are a good mix of healing, protective and offensive moves.





If you're planning on getting Platinum, don't do anything with Shaymin yet, wait until you have Platinum and then transfer him over, you'll be able to unlock the Gracidea Flower which transforms Shaymin into its Sky Forme, in which it can learn Air Slash, a cool Flying-type move, at Lvl 64. I would replace Substitute with this (but remember that Air Slash can only be used during the day, because Shaymin reverts to its Land Forme at night). Aromatherapy is a useful move because it heals the status conditions of your entire team.





If you're not planning on getting Platinum, you can't access the Sky Forme (yet), but the moveset Shaymin arrives with is still pretty cool. Although I'm not a fan of Substitute, it does give you a breather, and in some cases that can be enough to get the battle back on track. Otherwise, a move like Giga Drain might be a useful replacement for Substitute, as it can absorb the opponent's HP. This, combined with Aromatherapy and the two offensive moves (which normally Shaymin wouldn't learn until lvls 73 and 100 - think of it as a treat for obtaining the special Shaymin) make Shaymin a versatile and useful addition to the team.




i think you should train him to 100 and see what moves that does the much damage or makes him slower on attacks etc.





then at 100 if your not happy you can learn him some good tm's if you want just do your way man i have learned my shaymin four tm's that are pretty good but i recomend you think about it and see what moves he can learn:D
