  1. Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 (DS, June in JP, Fall in EU/NA/AU) - Updated May 12th

    Any one else catching the 'gems' in the new logo? Check it out... The colors seem extra... crystal like. AND Sapphire box art features vertical blue lines and Ruby box art features horizontal lines... and guess what numbers have what! Sure it could just be an allusion to the Blue/Red...
  2. VGC 2011 rules up!

    Does only Isshu pokemon mean only pokemon found in Isshu including swarm pokemon? Or is it the base 160 odd? If its the latter....gah what a confined meta. I am disapoint that RNG has been cracked for VGC. Now everyone must RNG to be competative. Yay arms races.
  3. Moody

    Now... what are people's opinions of this ability's effect on the VGC? Will haze/no hit be a must?
  4. Drifblim (Heat Rampage)

    If you run a TW team and can neutralize any Cleric you pop this guy out in the end game and you have a decent chance of sweeping with Evil Eye.
  5. Mirror Type

    I shoulda looked at the move's description before I jumped the gun... What about skill swapping trace while shedinja is in play :P I'd assume that trace would be activated and have a 50/33% chance of getting Wonder Gaurd. Of course this is more impossible than shuckle getting the highest...
  6. Mirror Type

    Best gimmick ever. Triple Battle Shedinja-Mew-Spiritomb 1st turn Mirror Type (spiritomb) 2nd turn Skill Swap (Shedinja) 3rd ??? 4th Profit! When the game comes out in the US I'm going to rape the frontier with this.
  7. R.I.P. Leads and Scouting

    Well first off I think if it were true it'd be fine. It'd be game changing but it'd be like having a team roster before the match. Something to scout over and change playstyles accordingly. Sure enough it would create a new type of playstyle where you have probably two potential leads instead...
  8. Lost in Translation: Shoddy 2 DS

    Said wonderfully. I however also like the fast paced nature of the sim. So I sim and make my own pokes. Again well said. I feel the same. Theoretical pokemon should stay in shoddy while real legitamely obtained pokes should be present on wifi. I find it frustrating that shoddy creates a...
  9. Lost in Translation: Shoddy 2 DS

    The Hannible Lecture >_> I've read that when I was lurking. It does make sense as I'm an Engineer Major :> . But beyond that mathmaticians are innately theorists having little direct impact on the world around them. Hereso I think that all the mathmaticians should simply use shoddy. It is...
  10. Lost in Translation: Shoddy 2 DS

    No one simply said anything. I don't remember anyone declaring in an announcers voice "The only form of cheating in pokemon is using outside programs!". Your contriving a statement to mean something it doesn't. No one ever mentioned "Glitching is allowed." >_> I loved the quote on RNG: "Its...
  11. Lost in Translation: Shoddy 2 DS

    I think he was being sardonic. Trying to say that by the fact that its an outside program used outside of the game makes it the same as an RNG program or SAV. Obviously it doesn't for the wonderful analogy. And yead I definately think ARs and SAV only perpetuate this cheating nature. Because...
  12. Lost in Translation: Shoddy 2 DS

    First off we are way off topic discussing whether or RNG abuse is 'cheating' or not. Secondly, (and I'm going off topic to address this) talking about Card Counting as an analogy to RNG is hardly reasonable. At most Card Counting makes a 1-2% weight towards the player, hardly the 100% weight...
  13. Lost in Translation: Shoddy 2 DS

    I don't understand why people take the 'Strategic Metagame' to the actual cartidges. Shoddy battle is all about IV manipulation Gamefreak made it incredibly hard to legitimatly get 'perfect' stats and for a reason. No pokemon will be perfect (okay maybe one in over a million thats like a total...
  14. Pokemon Black and White (SPECULATIONS ALLOWED HERE)

    I'm gonna play with as many pokes as I can, I'm doing it right now for HG/SS. Its slow and arduous but it gives a nice challenge to the game without going crazy (nuzlocke ^_^ I'm a whimp when it comes to my special games, might nuzlocke platinum or HG/SS when I get B/W but I wont do it for B/W)
  15. Pokemon Black and White (SPECULATIONS ALLOWED HERE)

    EVs and IVs are for fluff and flavor and then eventually for us older people to exploit and make the game a balanced playing field where only movesets and the player's strategy come in to play. Yeah idk, its a bs reason, but I think it may be plausible.
