I feel like getting the Zoom or Wide Lens through the Game Corner makes for a far less daunting task(1000 instead of 10000) and may offer enough of a boon to Blizzard/Thunder/Fire Blast to be worth it. I usually do this in my casual runs, dunno if it would be feasible in a more optimal setting.

Has this been confirmed in the game itself, or is it just the text change that is confirmed? This is pretty huge if the Hazard removal is indeed gone.

Do we have any idea if any moves were buffed or nerfed, in terms of BP and Accuracy?

So about the +1 Speed from Rapid Spin, which mons look like the most likely to benefit a lot from it, outside the obvious (Excadrill)? Tsareena maybe? The Hitmons?

I was looking through the fairly limited stable of Fire-types we have this time around(only 12, and quite a few returnees are underwhelming). The most notable of the bunch seem to be Cinderace(116 Atk, 119 speed and already looking like it will have fairly good coverage), Centiskorch(Dunno...

This might be a more concise and effective way of putting what I wanted to say across. Kudos.

How in the hell are you supposed to get a Lvl 51 Alakazam at the E4: doing a solo run. There is no way that any Pokemon should blow by another by that much unless your taking about the cover Legendaries. Most run's use 4-5 mons at best and most Pokemon, regardless of group end up at the same...

No, I'm saying Alakazam hits harder with Psychic and that his inferior bulk is slightly overstated. Zam catches up to Kirlia roughly around level 26 if he started out 9 levels behind, yes. It's in the 30-45 section he really blows past her and extends his lead into 4-5 levels. You calculated...

I don't necessarily disagree with you on it not holding Gardevoir back, I'm just saying there is a notable difference between the two in terms of sheer hitting power due to the curve. Both could very well be S. I'm willing to debate that Garde is a far better long-run Pokémon That would be a...

"Power: Sure, Kadabra/Alakazam are far ahead of Kirlia in terms of immediate strength, but Kirlia also gets both Calm Mind and Psychic much earlier than either of them, which helps to significantly bridge the gap in power, especially in boss matchups where boosting is a more effective method of...

I don't really agree with this assessment on Ralts and Kirlia. Confusion is not exactly strong coming from Ralts dreadful 45 SpA, and against anything it doesn't hit supereffectively, Ralts loses the head to head. Kirlia is slightly better against special-focused mons specifically due to Calm...

I'd argue that Ralts should be moved down in terms of tier placing. Efficient play would not be to powerlevel a weak mon for ages just so it can eventually be good, it would be to use a good mon instead(either a good early-game mon that fall off and you swap out, or a good early-game mon that...

I've had some good usage out of this set. Bruxish @ Life Orb Ability: Strong Jaw EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD Adamant Nature - Crunch - Psychic Fangs - Aqua Jet - Ice Fang People seem to think they can leave Toxapex in on Bruxish, and this set OHKOs Tox. I usually pair it with...

Are you sure about that? Dodrio could possibly jump a tier with its new toys and stat buff.

85 BP, 90 Acc is garbage. You can make a good case for never bothering with Sky Uppercut and settling for 75 BP, 100 acc with Brick Break.
