Does not learn ice punch, thunder punch, fake out or force palm through breeding, either.

Except I'm pretty sure that pressure doesn't effect moonlight.

...this discussion is actually quite amusing to read. It's obvious that a lot of you have little to no experience in double battles. Granted you are right that people don't switch much and spikes would be fairly useless (though stealth rock isn't all that uncommon), there's a contradiction...

Since when did they not?

I apologize if folks here already know about this--I just happened upon it PBR and hadn't seen it ever mentioned before. For those 2v2 battlers out there, it may not be so important to have one of the few and far between rapid spinner anymore! Defog also has the following useful effects...

Well, it's a bit more understandable in that situation. I happened to have the exact same three that the AI me had; just in a different order.

I like things like this, personally: Purugly (@Focus Sash) and Togekiss Purugly uses fake out to flinch the most threatening looking opponent of the two. Togekiss uses swagger on Purugly--boosts attack without causing confusion because of own tempo. Then abuse follow me while using Purugly as...

So I finally started playing in the wifi tower again out of boredom. Little did I know that I was in for a bit of a shock today. My first opponent in Rank 2, room 11 turned out to be me. O_O I was suspicious when I saw the lady sprite walk out, startled when she used my starting statement, and...

Says who? I've found that sub-seeding and force palming to paralyze anything faster works quite well in combination with poison heal. :) It pisses off the PBR noobs with their ubers.

So it OHKOs weavile. Woop de doo, so can everything else. Because of this, most weaviles and fragile sweepers carry sashes, and honestly, who gives a hoot about a SD drop if you've only got 1 HP anyway? In any case, can the "chia pet from hell" survive two stabbed ice punches? A lot of this...

I agree with everything on this page, except for the "bad formations" bit. Just where is the reasoning behind that? Granted I've never gotten to 40, but I never seem to have any trouble getting to about 35, and I've never heard about those before. Keeping it simple is important, and if there's...

Why didn't I protect? Like I said, I was very distracted. Doing two battles at once with the same team is a bad idea, especially when umbreon's out in both of them. I'd just used protect in the other battle... x_x So as the trainer I hit myself in confusion. I admit it was careless, and could've...

Okay--so I get my rear handed to me in this battle. For some reason two different battles popped up, and I was a bit distracted. I'm posting it more for the humorous statements my opponent made through out the battle. red=him green=me Rules: Evasion Clause, Freeze Clause, OHKO Clause, Sleep...

I can't see a wall attempt being too successful in little cup. :-/

Number 1: If just covering its mouth didn't work, then yes, I probably would. :-/ Hate to say it, but it'd be dead either way. Number 2: I would let the mother and child go. I've no doubt about that one. Number 3: I would probably let someone else do it. I've never held a gun in my life and...
