I know this sounds ignorant, but why is this problematic? Don't we already have many alternatives that fit this description? I have been reading through this discussion from the beginning, and there seems to be no unique characteristic that clearly makes Aegislash ban-worthy. These include: -...

Maybe I arrived at this discussion a bit late, but can someone quantify what it means to be a "blanket check" please? Note that I have no intent to squabble over semantics, I simply wish to sincerely understand what this phrase means and how so many people have arrived at this conclusion. I...

Respectfully, can I ask that you further elaborate on this statement? My point of view may be ignorant to your experience, and that's quite a lot to say with only half of one sentence. Also respectfully to your level of experience, this is a somewhat unfair way to frame the perspective. Value...

This is the right idea. Gengar is the correct speed tier where the extra pressure in the mid-game is going to be more useful for leveraging an advantage on the opponent. Unprepared opponents have a very difficult time managing the extra pressure without the resist. Choice Specs is quite a bit...

Pokemon Blue Help I restarted pokemon blue version on gameboy last week, and have been playing it avidly since. This morning, I was looking for a Vulpix when I got into a trainer battle with no trainer on the over-world map. Now my game is operating very slowly accessing menus and data. Is...

I have read your posts on this forum for a few years now and your ideas have always impressed me. That said, I have an idea that I'd like to share with you. I was always under the impression that the purpose of stall was to control the length of the match. Ideally, the better player has more...

I'm forced to agree with those that say Umbreon got nothing this time around. Ultimately, Umbreon is still centric to the tools it had nearly ten years ago with diminishing returns each iteration of the game. And I'd rather use Double Team on something like Breloom, but I still appreciate the...

I trade myself a well-bred egg of something with 3 evolutions similar to the starters that aren't the usual starters. For example, in my Pearl version, I beat the game with a Gardevoir rather than an Empoleon. I EV train it properly as I play, which usually results in picking lots of battles...

how does Blissey learn Wish?

I think you should consider Occa Berry on Forretress so that you can survive a Fire Blast from a Naive Azelf lead. I also disagree with putting two residual damage moves on one pokemon as it is impractical to pull off and your 4th move can be used better in most instances. Other than that, no...

I think Aggron will go the same route as Rhyperior after it has been play tested thoroughly. While the resists of Dragon, Ice, and Steel are nice, the weaknesses to Fighting and Ground are still too much of a hindrance. It will take a seriously talented player to knock out all of the...

No, I think Scizor is an excellent Pokemon in that it performs a duty that no other Pokemon can. I'm not so sure it would function the same in our updated environment. For example, I could very well see Garchomp using Haban Berry over Yache Berry with the addition of Latias to OU. You're...

The only characters with air control comparable to Jigglypuff that I can think of are Wario (good character) or Peach (poor air dodge). Most characters significantly lack air control. Even Metaknight has the worst aerial horizontal movement speed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhmRoAz_4CQ

I'm on break for the next few days if you want to hang out. Drop me a call or a PM =)

Perhaps it's time to review Garchomp again. Even ignoring the 32% mark in OU, it is coming close to outnumbering Garchomp 2 to 1 in Ubers.
