    SPOILERS! Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Datamine Thread

    I've not seen this asked or addressed so... are the exclusive Z crystals available in USUM? I know that Japan some countries will get Ashchunium via the new movie hat Pikachu that is only in USUM, but what about Mewnium? That event is over and Bank does not give you another if you reset your...

    That's what Compound Eyes are for (thank god)

    Data Pokemon Sun/Moon Battle Mechanics Research

    Simple answer is yes. Bulbapedia has a good write up for Ion Deluge and the weird type swaps it can and cannot affect. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Ion_Deluge_(move)

    Data Pokemon Sun/Moon Battle Mechanics Research

    I believe the problem is it is not so easily tracked down. The data is not in readable computer code like Perl and many of the discoveries were done using known pointers from older games, such as what the new TM list was but not knowing the new moves' identities. Finding the part that deals with...

    Pokémon Araquanid

    That's still doable. Can change to normal abilities from HA, but not back. Going from HA to normal may also mean needing a second ability capsule, but Araquanid thankfully only has WB normally.

    Metagame Metagame Discussion Thread

    I feel that Gale Wings will still survive on a few sets and be an almost equal ability that is more situational but can help. The no-item Acrobatics and Bulk Up defensive set loses priority healing, sure. But Flame Body gives an extra chance to burn (which would often be redundant with WoW but...

    Highest Stat Meta

    Well, even if we want to use the Ubers, Showdown keeps rejecting them. My Aegislash on my SpDf team keeps getting it rejected and hearing the same about teams with Mawile.

    Metagame NP: RU Stage 11: Dernière Danse (Medicham up to OU and Abomasnow and Slowking back in RU!)

    I have no issue with this suspect test of Venomoth. But.... The way this is phrased makes it sound like suspecting has become a scheduled undertaking we do rather than a necessity when something(s) become too far removed from the meta as a whole. And that this suspect was for some Pokemon, but...

    Ask simple questions here! [READ ORIGINAL POST before posting]

    Will there ever be a way to choose which Unown forme you are getting in team builder? (correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe all the Unowns are in PS but you get a random one each battle) Asking because a draft challenge my friends threw together recently had an interesting Unown wildcard idea...

    Smogon Usage-Based Tier Update: May 2015

    I know it came out too late to be a real factor in the usage, but this was a given for the sometime in the future after that UU analysis released that did nothing but list negatives and literally tell you not to use it. At least now someone who can use Trevenant right and enjoys it can make a...

    General Introduce yourself!

    Guess I should do one of these. First video game I ever got was Pokemon Red. Eventually I got Silver, then Crystal. I dropped Pokemon at Gen3 because I disagreed with the direction, looking at things dropped from G2 (backwards trading, day/night, etc). For nostalgia's sake, I got FireRed and...
