I'm really dense, so please excuse these questions, but does Destiny Knot choose 5 stats, then pick 1 IV from either parent in each of those 5 selected stats, or does it pick 5 out of the 12 IVs from the parents (as in, the 5 could be both HP, both Attack, and 1 Speed IV, with the duplicates...

I actually just recently read The Road, and I would definitely recommend it. It does not really live up to his title as "the next William Faulker", with there being not enough super intense literary things (metaphors in metaphors, stream of consciousness only) and its "statement on the human...

Such lovely memories. When I was younger, my sister and I would waste away lazy Saturdays by restarting our file and racing through the game and "capture" all of the Pokemon as quickly as we could. Speaking of which, time trials would not be a bad challenge, although I feel like the rails type...

When running Trick Room without running an Imprison user, what is the best way to fight opposing Trick Room teams? Is it better to make your team as slow as possible and activate TR to still have the reverse-speed advantage, or is it better to run a slightly faster (out of TR) team so that...

For all of its many, many faults, I cannot deny how much I loved the music. Like, it didn't matter how bad your opponents were or how frustrating the stadiums were, you had music like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hs93W77wrNc and...

When do accuracy modifiers for moves whose accuracy is affected by weather apply? Like, if I led with X and Glaceon, and on Turn 1, switched the X for Abomasnow and Hail successfully was summoned. In that turn, Glaceon used Blizzard. Would the accuracy be boosted to 100%? On the same note, if...

Nothing like an excess of Pokemon to get my mind off of being slaughtered by Differential Equations. Definitely in.

Thanks for the clarifications! Now for more questions! How do byes affect the Opponent's Win % and Opp's Opp's Win %? Like, just say a player defeats one of those super cool people who earned 2 byes from a Regional or whatever, how do those byes count when calculating those above numbers? Are...

Just wanted to clarify some things regarding when modifications of stats occur: Modifiers like Trick Room, Tailwind, Swift Swim/Chlorophll/Sand Rush, and by extension Thunder Wave, all take effect the turn after they happen, but Quash/After You do not? I also have some confusion regarding...

<3 Eiganjo, especially as someone without access to DS-compatible WiFi and desire for VGC-related distractions.

While I agree that posting only battles videos will not do the channel justice, especially considering the large social aspect of the VGCs, I think the value of a large volume of battle videos cannot be understated. Actually watching different match-ups in action, and not just reading/watching...

So here is a less pretty version of Synre's usage tier list (I was curious and kinda itching for a current one), but updated! It follows the same format. Pokemon are listed by usage, Pokemon in blue were used by the respective Regional's Master's winner (PokemonVGC has not uploaded the...

You are a gentleman and a scholar. Thank you so very much!

Thank you so very much for the offer and opportunity. I have been incredibly busy these past few weeks, and this is a lifesaver. If there is anything I can do (EV training, item getting), let me know. PM me if you want to trade. Thanks again! EDIT: Friend Code: 5457-8678-6508 I am also free...

Yeah, Kojondo + Erufuun will probably be a very common lead, at least in the beginning. I was trying to find moves that could block Fake Out, and really the only feasible option is Fast Guard, which is learned by 4 Pokemon faster than Kojondo (Aekeosu and the Musketeer Dog Trio). Still does not...
