Pokemon diamond - Is Ghastly good?

Question

I currently have a Lv23 Ghastly I found in Eterna Forest and I'm training it to Lv26 to match my other pokemon, using Vs Seeker before I go into Mt. Coronet.

Is it worth it though? I heard I will be able to catch a Kadabra later on. I know I can't evolve it normally but I don't care because I had it on Emerald (I don't anymore) and it knew Psychic and it pretty much pwned all. So should I stick to Gahstly or just drop it and invest in a Kadabra?

I currently have Monferno, Luxio and Murkrow in my time and I'm hoping to add Gyrados and Dialga later. If anyone can suggest a better pokemon than either Ghastly or Kadabra for my team then tell me. (don't say Bronzor. I hate Bronzor)

Answer 1

Keep gastly and kadabra and try them out if kadabra kills faster keep it and throw gastly away, and vice versa.

Answer 2

I would suggest a sticking with gastly... you can evolve it to Hunter and trade with friends to get him to become a Gengar. Gengar is a strong pokemon and it's good to have one...

Gyrados is a good pokemon but it's hard to train... If you want a water type a Floatzel is good too...

Instead of having Dialga I suggest getting a Lucario or a Heracross...

You mentioned that you don't like bug types but Heracross is also a fighting type and has a strong attack and good def, spd, sp def.

So I suggest either getting Lucario or a Heracross instead of a Dialga.

Answer 3

I suggest a gible which is a dragon/ground type and is hard to find. You find it under the cycling road and the cave entrance is hidden. Remember!! there are two ways to get into wayward cave, one next to the hiker and one under the cycling road. YOU WILL NOT FIND ANY GIBLES IF YOU GO THROUGH THE ENTRANCE WHERE THE HIKER IS! Gible evolves to Gabite at level 24 and then into Garchomp at level 48 and at level 100 my garchomp had an attack stat of 321, defense 234, sp at stat of 198, sp def stat of 201 and speed stat of 213  

Answer 4

gasley is a great pokemon when you train it up to about lv. 30. it will evolve around there and then trade it so it will evolve again to a gangar. i have one lv. 50 and it is awesome.

Answer 5

kadabras good try to trade it so u can get an alakazams

dont worry about going over 6 u always want about 12 or more pokemon(i have a full box of good main pokemon)

Answer 6

By level 26, your Gastly will be a Haunter. If you can evolve it by trading, that will be great. If not, oh well. Gastly learns Hypnosis, you can abuse this move so easily it ain't even funny. Just use Hypnosis and switch to a Pokemon to use Swords Dance / Nasty Plot / Whatever other move you like to raise your stats and destroy the other team. The AI doesn't really switch, so this is a good way to take the E4.
