Crobat is the highest evolved form of Zubat. Many a pokemon player will remember having to fight against hordes of Zubat in the many caves in any Region on the Pokemon Map. In the beginning, for most, they are little more than an annoyance as they receive few great moves in the early stages of development. This Poison/Flying type covers your bases for fighting many different types and can learn moves that will help to lower or in some cases nullify his weaknesses. My advice to those starting a new game or just looking for a strong Flying or Poison Pokemon, this is your baby.

Crobat's biggest advantage comes with it's speed. I have personally seen it out-speed a well raised Jolteon and those suckers are quick. If you can hit first and hit hard, which Crobat can, you will be at a distinct advantage.

Now, let's speak about the Ability. You don't get much choice here, it's Inner Focus which says you can't Flinch a Crobat. Flinch-haxers, be warned... ninja

As for move sets, there are plenty of good options and with the addition of Platinum, it just got more interesting (if not always more effective).

I love my Crobat just about as much as my Drapion as together, they make a pretty tough team combination for hard hits and quick kills as well as stand alone destroyers.

Hope you enjoyed the read.
