    Why Make A RMT if you aren't original?

    That is like saying "What kind of Doctor are you? You mean you follow the rules? Give out accepted and effective drugs/procedures, etc?" The reason why people use OU teams with standard movesets is because they work. I'm not saying everything should be standard but I've yet to see Pokemon...

    Looking for skilled users of Action Replay/Gameshark

    What do you consider "as close to legit as possible". Is the requirement that they can be imported to PBR without being turned into an Egg? The only "problem" I noticed with the Pokemon I have "created" is that their location says "Apparently caught as LOCATION". Obviously replace location...

    Poll: Heracross

    I usually use CBcross but only if I have a Scarfchomp, otherwise, I use Scarfcross.

    Metagross

    I like Agiligross the best, although it was a toss up between CBgross and Agiligross.

    Wierd new idea: Choice Scarf Electabuzz/Vire

    Well, I can assure you that Chomp, Mence, etc won't be making an appearance in UU. I don't know about Yanmega but I assume it won't be either... Furthermore, if you aren't carrying Ice Punch, you won't be switching into (or staying in against) a Scarfchomp anyways.

    Wierd new idea: Choice Scarf Electabuzz/Vire

    I wonder if 463 speed is really needed, especially if this is in UU. Perhaps you could use some of those Speed EVs and pump some into HP/Defense?

    Yes, which I why I suggested that it be changed. :)

    Smocon 08 - Where?

    I live in Toronto so it would be cool to do something in the GTA. However, Montreal is only a few hours away so I wouldn't mind spending the weekend away chilling with Smogon. EDIT: As others have said, you can drink at 18 in Montreal and 19 in Toronto (and most of Canada too), so that might be...

    What would your dying words be?

    "Rosebud..."

    I have noticed....

    As long as your pokemon is within the legal limits set by the game, even if the stats are unlikely, I feel it is okay.

    Fantasy NBA

    I joined. Thank God 4 teams are the limit, else I wouldn't be able to join any more =( EDIT: May I suggest the Weekly Deadline be set to Daily - Tomorrow? I don't know if this is normal for Smogon's league but in my past experiences, Weekly deadlines never work out very well for a casual league.

    Garchomp Popularity

    LO'd SD Sweeper. Probably the best OU late-game sweeper. Once you take out it's apparent counters (Weavile, Starmie, for example), you kill things...

    Face Palm Battle Moments?

    I was playing Battle Tower and I got OHKO'd by a Hippowdon Fissue and then OHKO by a Gliscor Guillotine twice. =( EDIT: I should mention that all three moves hit the first time and on the first turn so I had no idea about Fissure or Guillotine (I knew of the second Guillotine but it was...

    Which pokemon do you start with?

    I usually lead with a fairly standard Mixpert. Roar and SR for stat uppers and mismatches.

    "Mixed Walls" Don't Really Exist

    First, Bronzong is essentially only weak to Fire (with Levitate). It resists 8 types, is immune to 2 (Ground with Levitate, as well as Poison), makes it a good choice for a wall. Second, Bronzong's unique ability to have 300 Special Defense and Defense along with 338 HP, make it tough to take...

    The forgotten foe: McGar

    Well, would you care to post some calculations? How much damages comes from FP?

    Doubles leads; what possible ones are there?

    Perhaps something like this could work: Clefable @ Leftovers Magic Guard EVs: 252 HP, 252 SpDef, 6 SpAtk Follow Me Protect Wish Ice Beam With a standard Life Orb'er Rayquaza... Turn 1: Clefable uses Follow Me, Rayquaza uses Dragon Dance Turn 2: Clefable uses Protect, Rayquaza uses Outrage...
