Moveset Analysis (Special):
Got a Shadow Stantler in Pokemon Colosseum you want in your main game? Well if you purify not only will you be able to transfer it over but it'll also have Ghost-type Astonish, Normal-type Take Down (STAB), and tactical moves Hypnosis & Leer... you know, MOVES IT CAN LEARN JUST BY LEVELING UP!
Pokemon: Delibird
Type: Ice/Flying

Base Stats:

Weakness (4x): Rock
Weakness (2x): Steel, Fire, & Electric
Resistance (.5x): Bug & Grass
Immunity (0x): Ground
Moveset Analysis (Leveling Up):
Normal-type Present, Present, and only Present! But from a Pokemon that is based off Santa Clause, are you really that surprised? Oh, and just incase you're wondering, 40% of the time Present's Base Power is 40, 30% of the time it's 80, and 10% of the time it's 120. But wait, that only equals 80%, what about the other 20%? Well, 20% of the time, it'll HEAL its target by 80HP. But don't fret, as unlike other Pokemon with gimmicky moves, Delibird can learn other attacks through:
Moveset Analysis (TM/HM):
Fighting-type Focus Punch & Brick Break break down Rock- and Steel-types while Water-type Water Pulse soaks Rock- and Fire-types. For other attacks there are Dark-type Thief & Fling; Ice-type Ice Beam, Blizzard (+ Hail), & Avalanche (STAB); and Flying-type Aerial Ace, Pluck, & Fly (STAB). Tactical we have Rain Dance, Recycle, & Defog.
Moveset Analysis (Breeding):
We have Psychic-type Future Sight; Normal-type Fake Out, Quick Attack, & Rapid Spin; and Ice-type Aurora Beam, Ice Ball, Ice Shard, & Ice Punch (STAB). No tactical moves but we do the one, the only, the move that makes your jaw drop, the move which will make most give you a blank stare if you use... Splash!
Moveset Analysis (Tutoring):
Grass-type Seed Bomb can handle those Rock-types and Ground-type Mud-Slap can take on not one, not, two, not even three, but ALL OF DELIBIRD's WEAKNESSES: Rock-, Steel-, Fire-, & Electric-types... to bad it only have 20 base power. Oh, and other attacks are Poison-type Gunk Shot; Rock-type Rollout; Bug-type Signal Beam; Ice-type Icy Wind (STAB); and Flying-type Bounce & Sky Attack (STAB).
Moveset Analysis (Special):
Pokemon Colosseum also have a Shadow Delibird! Purify it to get one knowing Present, Ice-tye Blizzard (STAB), Flying-type Fly (STAB), & tactical move Attract. At least they gone to TM moves, but maybe giving it a better Ground-type attack would have made it worth wild!
So who wins? Stantler has the better stats all around and can do moves that are both strong and Super Effective against Delibird. Even if Delibird could get an attack in, Stantler would probably survive letting it deal another Super Effective attack again so that...
MY CHOICE:
STANTLER
Stantler: 1 | Delibird: 1
Oh, and BTW...
)I never expected stantler to become so powerful now.....argh! It makes me want to get one in SS
Im thinking of buying both now so I can have my team in HG unchanged >_

Fire Punch? Jynx can't do Fire Punch, remember that a TCG-move is a game move that was put on a Jynx card but is not a move any in-game Jynx can actually learn.
Pokemon: Jynx
Type: Ice/Psychic
Ability:
= Oblivious (Prevents Attraction)
= Forewarn (Shows opponent's move with the highest base power. In a Double Battle, if both opponents have their move with the highest base power the same, one will be chosen at random)

=HP: 65
=Attack: 50
=Defense: 35
=Special Attack: 115
=Special Defense: 95
=Speed: 95
=Total: 455
Weakness (2x): Rock, Bug, Ghost, Steel, Fire, & Dark
Resistance (.5x): Psychic & Ice
Moveset Analysis (Leveling Up):
Ghost-type Lick disgusts even other Ghost-types while Fighting-type Wake-Up Slap (Remember to use Lovely Kiss to put opponents to Sleep to do double the damage) to smack around Rock-, Steel-, and Dark-types. Other attacks are Normal-type Pound, DoubleSlap, Body Slam, & Wring Out and Ice-type Powder Snow, Ice Punch, Avalanche, & Blizzard (STAB). Tactical there is Mean Look & Fake Tears. Finally we have Perish Song.
Moveset Analysis (TM/HM):

Other attacks are Dark-type Thief, Fling, & Payback; Normal-type Hyper Beam & Giga Impact; Ice-type Ice Beam (STAB); and Psychic-type Psychic & Dream Eater (STAB). Tactical we have Hail (combo with Blizzard), Calm Mind, Taunt, Light Screen, Reflect, Torment, Skill Swap, Recycle, Flash, Psych Up, & Trick Room.
Moveset Analysis (Breeding):
Normal-type Fake Out and Ice-type Ice Punch (STAB) are the only attacks here. Tactical we have Meditate, Miracle Eye, Nasty Plot, & Wish.

Ground-type Mud-Slap dirties Rock-, Steel-, and Fire-types. In attacks we also have Bug-type Signal Beam; Ice-type Ice Wind (STAB); and Psychic-type Zen Headbutt. Tactical there is Heal Bell, Helping Hand, Magic Coat, Role Play, & Trick.
Pokemon: Glalie
Type: Ice
Ability:

Base Stats:
=HP: 80
=Attack: 80
=Defense: 80
=Special Attack: 80
=Special Defense: 80
=Speed: 80
=Total: 480
Weakness (2x): Fighting, Rock, Steel, & Fire
Resistance (.5x): Ice
Moveset Analysis (Leveling Up):
Attacks are Normal-type Headbutt, Dark-type Bite & Crunch; and Ice-type Powder Snow, Icy Wind, Ice Fang, Ice Beam, & Blizzard (+ Hail). Tactical we have Leer, Double Team, & Protect. We also have the OHKO Sheer Cold.
Moveset Analysis (TM/HM):
Water-type Water Pulse washes away Rock- and Fire-types; Ground-type Earthquake shakes Rock-, Steel-, and Fire-types; and Steel-type Gyro Ball spins on Rock-types. Other attacks include Normal-type Hyper Beam, Explosion, & Giga Impact; Ghost-type Shadow Ball; Dark-type Payback & Dark Pulse; and Ice-type Avalanche (STAB). In tactical there is Light Screen, Rain Dance, Torment, & Flash.
Moveset Analysis (Breeding):
Rock-type Rollout rolls all over Fire-types. We then have Normal-type Bide & Weather Ball as the other attacking moves. Tactical adds in Block, Disable, & Spikes.
Moveset Analysis (Tutoring):
Steel-type Iron Head smashes Rock-types. Other attacks come down to Normal-type Super Fang and Bug-type Signal Beam. Tactical there is only Spite.
No who wins? That low HP and Defence is dangerous for Jynx but it will move first and if it as wise it would do a Special Move. But before doing that a Lovely Kiss is advised as Glalie has no way to stop it and then you can start up a Focus Blast. So with that said...
MY CHOICE:
JYNX
Jynx: 1 | Glalie: 2

| wait, glalie isn't dark? his suckness finds no limits... |
Yup, Glalie isn't a Dark-type just like Luxray. They look like Dark-types, but that's just what their color-scheme and looks just so happen to resemble and nothing more.
Pokemon: Dewgong

Other attacks are Dark-type Thief & Fling and Normal-type Hyper Beam & Giga Impact. Tactical we have Rain Dance but nothing else out of the ordinary.
Moveset Analysis (Breeding):
Ice-tpe Icicle Spear (STAB) cools down Grass-types. Then in attacks we have Ghost-type Lick and Normal-type Fake Out, Slam, & Spit UP (along with Stockpile & Swallow). Tactical brings Disable; OHKO brings Normal-type Horn Drill; and we'll throw in Perish Song to end it.
Moveset Analysis (Tutoring):
Nothing here but repeats.
Pokemon: Glaceon
Type: Ice
Ability: Snow Cloak
= (In Battle: Evasion increases by 20% in Hail. If Pokemon wasn't already an Ice-type, it will now take no damage from Hail)
= (Outside Battle: If leading party, the chances of encountering a Pokemon decreases by 50% if in an area with a blizzard)
Base Stats:
=HP: 65
=Attack: 60
=Defense: 110

Water-type Water Pulse quenches Rock- and Fire-types; Steel-type Iron Tail crushes Rock-types; Ground-type Dig buries Rock-, Steel-, and Fire-types; and Fighting-type Rock Smash smashes Rock- and Steel-types. Neutral attacks will be Normal-type Hyper Beam, Giga Impact, & Strength; Ghost-type Shadow Ball; and Ice-type Ice Beam & Avalanche (STAB). Noteworthy tactical moves are just Sunny Day & Rain Dance.
Moveset Analysis (Breeding):
Only attacks here are Normal-type Covet & Flail. Everything else is tactical moves being Charm, Curse, Detect, Fake Tears, Tickle, Wish, & Yawn.
Moveset Analysis (Tutoring):
Water-type Aqua Tail drowns Rock- and Fire-types while Ground-type Mud-Slap rubs dirt in the faces of Rock-, Steel-, and Fire-types. Only other attack worth mentioning is Bug-type Signal Beam. Tactical also has Heal Bell & Helping Hand.
Dewgong has its stats much fairly spread out while Glaceon has to full under the stat division of the Eeveelutions which gives it a bit of an unfair adventage. And with Dewgong having higher Speed and both able to do Super Effective moves against Glaceon who doesn't have any for Dewgong...

Their stats are pretty much the same, but with Spinda the only one who can land Super Effective moves onto the other, the win clearly goes to...
MY CHOICE:
SPINDA
Farfetch'd: 1 | Spinda: 1
hmm Kamonegi vs Patcheel
I choose spinda
It learns several rock ice and electric attacks
while Farfetc'd learns no super effective moves
so I choose Patcheel(spinda)
edit: dang it pikachu! you beat to the punch!
how could you!?
*holds Spinog my Shiny spinda and the only one I legtimatly caught*
You hurt my baby's feelings!

| Spinda3. Farfetch'd Fainted! Spinda gained 516 EXP Ding! Spinda level up! Spinda still sucks though. |
I don't really understand the purpose with Spinda, I mean besides it having a thing with the Confusion status ailment, why exactly does it have so many different spot configurations? Was it to show how powerful the GBA could be? Almost all the other Normal-type gimmicks help in battles, except for Spinda's spot configuration feature.
