Wow, it's been almost 10 years.

The game is changing. And Salamence, I feel, is going to act as a weather vane in regards to which direction this tier will be heading to in the future. Power creep has been ratcheting up for years now, and UU has felt the weight of it as much as anyone. Looking purely on paper, I can see why...

Mega Altaria in UU? This is going to be crazy! EDIT: And Mega Alakazam!

This has been passed around a lot recently, but I am not convinced at all. He uses Greece, Puerto Rico, and Argentina as the three pillars of his argument and they all have flaws. The PR and Argentina situations are very recent, and it is impossible to tell if it will even lead to recovery, and...

Trump says that America should buyback its debt for less than face value. Someone explain to me how this isn't fucking crazy. The RNC should be prosecuted for letting him get this close to the White House.

?? I don't know why you have mexican food in quotes when I said Tex-Mex. From your description Cinco de Mayo sounds like the holiday version of Tex-Mex anyway. A perfect fit.

Weak. Eating Latin dishes (or at least Tex-Mex) is a common tradition for Americans celebrating Cinco de Mayo.

Woah, you're back!

Got into UMD, Penn State, and Pitt :). Georgetown, Columbia, and others come later but this really takes a lot of the stress off. Any smogonites at these schools care to share about the student life/ their experiences?

*Before collegeconfidential* I'm applying to these schools because of it's wonderful research opportunites, and this one because its campus is simply beautiful. Now this school is kind of a reach, but it simply the best school for my major, and I think I have a chance of getting in! *After...

Now for Mienshao: Here is a list of all the things commonly used in UU that can take a CB HJK and not get 2KOd Aromatisse (2.3% chance, any prior damage, or a layer of spikes seals it) Max/Max+ Celebi Chandelure Crobat Froslass Max/Max+ Nidoqueen Sableye Trevenant Add Knock off and Stone Edge...

I don't support a V-Create ban, and I think it's a little odd that people are seriously considering it. (Let's ignore the fact that everyone decided it was obviously Victini's versatility and unpredictably that made it broken a couple pages ago, suddenly V-Create is the deciding factor). A move...

I think people are really overstating the diversity of the Victini you see on the ladder. Yes there is a threat of the Victini being TR, Mixed Special, etc, but it a player's job to predict and make educated judgments. Look at the team composition of the other 5 members. Are the attackers all...
