So decided to give my doubles rain dance team from last gen a spin. It was pretty successful last gen achieving a 234 streak or something similar, only losing to obscene hax. Currently at an easy 21 wins but can see weaknesses (mainly special defensive pokemon that resist surf). Team is...

Flinch = 60% Crit = 6.25% chance Chance of both = 3.75% chance Not 100% sure that is the critical hit %, but I think that is it.

Thanks, I tried that, but still no luck. Would it be because my version is australian (as opposed to american)? My pearl version is imported from the US, but I bought HG here.

How would I go about getting my AR to work for HG? It doesn't have the game by default, and whenever I insert HG into my AR'ed DS it restarts.

That Mew finish was amazing. Other than that, kinda average battle with some sub-optimal choices. Formatting was nice, and comments were decent.

Triple typing is just complexity for complexities sake. Perhaps give some pokemon the ability to swap between secondary types if anything [Gyarados alternate to Water/Dragon (UBER~!) and things like that]. Still don't see the need. Legendary theme should be "good vs evil" or something along...

I wouldn't mind gen V somewhat changing the battle system to be more dynamic. Obviously completely changing battle systems as the series progresses isn't feasible (as opposed to say final fantasy), but perhaps some kind of time gauge to make battles more engaging. Simplifying stat manipulation...

That was some terribly bad luck... made me realise that perhaps my team isn't prepared enough for a long tower streak. Then again, quick claw horn drill is something that only a few pokemon can handle reliably. I have been trying Shuckle as the 3rd member of my BT team specifically to deal with...

Lost at 234 in DP doubles tower. Lost to a team of Blastoise/Sceptile/Meganium/Swampert. Normally I dispose of these teams easily, but no such luck.... I fake out Sceptile and both Blastoise and Vaporeon set up rain dance on turn 1. Next turn I kill Sceptile before he can attack, and Blastoise...

Reached 210 undefeated with my rain dance team now. Has come close to losing on four occasions (3 due to hax) and one due to an annoying pokemon that I now have to be wary of. At about 40 I ran into a sash/guillotine gliscor that caused me grief, and I had to pressure stall it with zapdos...

Just lost at 125 wins. Here is the battle, I definitely could have won even though it was a bad matchup for my team. He starts off with Mamo/Lapras, neither of whom are particularly threatening so I GK off the bat. Ludi GK's Lapras for 75% Mamo Stone Edge's Ludi for around 45% Lapras Tbolts...

Haven't run into that yet (chansey in early round was easy enough though). special walls are obviously a pain, but when isolated 2v1 they fall and cant do much in return. that blissey loses to zappy at least. snorlax hasnt been too bad so far, he cant wall too many high powered surfs. seen one...

Started doing DP doubles tower after getting frustrated by a crit-happy Staraptor in singles. I decided to try a rain team after reading about CBshuckles success (I am using his Ludi/Kingdra on my team), and am currently on run three with a team that hasn't been threatened yet at 90 wins...

I am the master of this. adamant shuckle w/ 31 iv's, 252 ev in attack power trick/defence curl/rollout/sweet scent get smeargle to belly drum, screech opponent to -6 and focus energy up before passing to shuckle. opponent also needs to pass pure power over. i switched from azumarill to...

How do EV's express themselves? Say I have a level 5 pokemon with full EV's - it wouldn't have received all of it's stat bonuses yet right? Exactly how does this mechanism work?
