Hi, this is one of my first sprites. It's a water-type named Ekine, based loosely on a sea urchin. I made this little guy with Marill (obviously), Croconaw's spikes, Scolipede, Terrakion, and Gigalith's coloring (for body, stomach, and spikes, respectively), and a little scratching here and...

Can anybody vote? No secondary ability

"Weaponless" Weather Slayer could we make a Weaponless pokemon with an interesting typing that doesn't grant it worthwhile STAB? I think an offensive poison or poison/steel type would be awesome. Although you'd have to deal with that Earthquake weakness somehow.

OK, I'm sorry for not making this clear. Tyranitar is almost never my lead. I put him in the lead spot because it draws certain kinds of leads in - Metagross, Kojondo, Gliscor, Breloom - which I can then take advantage of with my other pokemon, especially Chandelure. I will usually switch Aero...

Yeah I went into TeamBuilder and did some damage calcs to figure out how to kill Politoed. Here's my new TTar set: Tyranitar @ Choice Band Brave nature (+Atk, -Spe) 224 HP, 180 Atk, 104 SpA -Stone Edge -Crunch -Pursuit -Ice Beam I know it's unorthodox, but it seems to work well. It's very...

I'll definitely test Urugamosu out, I never really considered him before. The water and stealth rock weaknesses seem like they could hurt, though. Definitely needs some testing. I think I'll set him up as a sweeper and I'll scarf Chandelure. While some people might like to flinch stuff to...

So I recently discovered the wonder of Breloom. Along with my favorite gen V pokemon, Excadrill, I've earned a much higher rating than I've ever had before in any gen (which, admittedly, isn't saying much). Here's my team. Tyranitar @ Choice Band Adamant nature (+Atk, -SpA) 224 HP, 252 Atk...

Man, I wanna do a mono-steel DPPt run so bad... But I can't reset until I pick up another 4th gen game or BW. Piplup, Forretress, Bastiodon, Bronzong, Lucario, maybe Steelix, Dialga... Pure awesome...

I would think so... Seems unfair if you were to capture that many pokemon in such a small area. I'd play the safari zone counting as one area for sure.

On my way to the Elite Four in FireRed with nothing but a Blastoise, Vileplume, and Jolteon, all above level 50... Jolteon uses Dig, level 38 Geodude uses Magnitude 8, Jolteon goes down, and I give up. I'm out of places to catch pokemon and out of good pokemon to use. I'm starting over. No way I...

Just Thick Fat Mamoswine, Magnezone, and Shedinja, I believe. Still, boltbeam isn't used very much - didn't they say that in the Smogcast? There aren't a whole lot of viable users. Since nobody but Rotom-F gets STAB on the two, neutral damage often just isn't enough. And Rotom-F's Blizzard is...

blocking Explosion doesn't matter that much since it's now half as powerful... I miss the real Explosion...

what about stat-boosting berries? For the first time, pokemon can automatically survive any attack and hold another item. I think maybe a lead who can take a hit then boost their speed would work well, although I guess Priority would ruin it.

Sadly, I am unable to test this team, since Kitsunoh's playtest is way over. I've been fiddling around with an all-steel team for a while, and it seems the natural strategy for an all-steel team is stall. Sadly, there are no steel spinblockers. I decided I'd make a team with Kitsunoh, the...
