  1. Doubles Zygarde

    This needs to mention ExtremeSpeed somewhere, probably in the set comments. Zygarde doesn't have much going for it over Garchomp (or any other Dragon), so ExtremeSpeed + Glare + Land's Wrath should get mentions. Maybe this will see more use if Yveltal or Xerneas get unbanned in doubles.
  2. Doubles Blaziken

    Since this is the "Blaziken" analysis, you gotta mention Life Orb Blaziken. Using LO lets you use it alongside Mega Charizard Y's Drought, which is the best pokemon in doubles. There is almost no power drop, and it doesn't consume your mega slot. Drought + LO is way better than Mega Blaziken...

  4. The Everything NFL Punter Thread - 2014/2015 Season

    You can't be the best player if you're not on the field. Von Miller is either suspended or injured half the time, there are plenty of other defensive players better than he is for that reason alone. The Pats still need someone to bail Brady out because the last few years, this team collapses...
  5. Serious Income Inequality

    so after someone makes 5 million, they leave the country and you never see another dime from them in taxes? Great plan
  6. Serious Income Inequality

    If you ever wonder why there is so much income inequality in this country, take a drive through the ghetto around 1:00. Grown men standing in groups on the street corner in the middle of the day, scares away the taxpayers who pay for all of their stuff. Then they complain when their schools go...

    Swagger: Do Not Ban
  8. XY OU Suspect Process, Round 2 - Voter Identification Thread

    The % in the name doesn't register? odd
  9. np: Doubles Stage 2 - Suspect Discussion

    This is probably a silly question but if we do remove sleep clause, Dark Void still remains banned, correct? I'm asking for a friend I swear
  10. Official Doubles Stage 2 Suspect Voting

    Remove Sleep Clause (as long as Dark Void remains banned)
  11. Sample teams for starting Doubles

    Pocket, great advice. I made the switch on Garchomp and Conkeldurr. Conk now has Ice Punch over Rock Slide. I put Stone Edge in for Dragon Claw on Garchomp. This has already won me a few matches. I wanted SE over Outrage at first, but Dragon Claw just doesn't kill things. That 60 base...
  12. Sample teams for starting Doubles

    Mega Charizard Y is really strong, and we have awesome Fire-types that don't care about Stealth Rock since it's doubles. Then we check for type coverage and find our best fillers. I made this Sun Doubles team to start out this metagame. It was extremely fun to use and I qualified for suspect...
  13. np: Doubles Stage 2 - Suspect Discussion

    I'm going to answer these questions out of order: Does Sleep limit or increase diversity of the metagame? It increases the diversity of the metagame. Things like Breloom, Amoonguss and Smeargle which are mid-tier on their best days are now viable in doubles. It makes Sleep-immune pokemon...
  14. np: Doubles Stage 2 - Slumber (THANK GOD ALMIGHTY, [SLEEP] FREE AT LAST)

    Sleep just hasn't done anything against me. The only preparation I made was adding Sleep Talk to a CB user on my team, thinking that the suspect test would bring sleep users out of hiding. I've only seen a handful of Brelooms and Amoonguss, and they haven't managed to do much. Dark Void being...
