I guess that makes sense. Fair enough. That's definitely the highest I've ever seen someone even out.
Win/loss ratios are a funny thing. I actually did some math on it for Season 15, when I finished at 1700. My win ratio was around 76% (3 out 4), higher in terms of percentage than the entire Top 15 (aside from Paul, iirc he had the same number of battles, 2-3 more wins, and +110 points) for the US, yet I fell below people with much lower ratios (some even around 55%) with much higher battle counts. Not being on ladder before, is probably just a new save or cart, not that odd. Usually when I'm running even its about 1560's, but that's because I usually get a flood of 1400s that give no points on winning, and chunk 25 points when you get haxxed to death. If he got less-than-abhorrent luck and was beating ~1550 and losing to ~1600, then yeah he'd very realistically gain points overall. Or, beat two or three 1550's, then die to one or two 1600's, he'd also make progress.
hey guys i still got no answer for this question. What are your thoughts?
No. This is how most of us check our rating before turning the game off
both
There is also Theorymon who does a lot of give aways for hard to get mons
There's both the Soft Resetting Legendaries guide, and Theorymon's VGC Giveaway thread that you can check out.
I believe you're thinking of the Japan Sand team with Articuno, Gliscor and Bronzong in the back that got up to 2000+ in s11 and s15? That guy didn't list the EVs for any of his Pokemon :(
Surprised no one got to you. Anyways, Hippo is Zard's most common teammate. Not sure that's much of a clue as to the form, since I think it works with both. Next most common is Chomp, which makes mw think Zard Y since there's a compounded dragon weak with X and some more problems like Azu and Slowbro. After that is Gren, then Thund which I think is more X for the lessened rock weak. Could be either though really. Aegi I'd guess X cuz Aegi doesn't appreciate sun being up. Really most stuff doesn't give much hints, and very little gives it away definitively until the thing actually mega evos. Zard X is most common(I see Y more on Showdown, but nvm) so if both fit assume it's that.
Ah that's a shame. I didn't realize that there was an Articuno analysis done lol. I've been using the BR Articuno that I got from Theorymons giveaway, it has been doing alright but should I reset the evs and ev it like the one in the analysis?
I'm not sure. Theorymon both trained the Articuno and wrote the analysis, so they're likely both good spreads, but depending on what you're trying to do the analysis one is probably better!
I moved your thread to the Simple Questions thread, please take some time to read the rules and lurk the other threads and resources we have on offer. Perhaps the problem is that you only use 3 Pokemon? If you use a full team of 6 then you should list them as well...
Thanks for that heres my team
That can't be your team, you have two life orbs.
Sorry i use sharp beck on talonflame
Unfortunately Starmie is kind of outclassed by Greninja, which conveniently also ruins Starmie's day completely along with Aegislash. Starmie can pull off a Sub Minimize set with Leftovers since it's fast enough to Sub on a lot of stuff, but it's not anything amazing.
