Two things: 1) Does Imposter copy the Happiness level of the opposing Pokemon? 2) If it does, then why don't people run Frustration over Return so the opposing Ditto isn't as powerful when they use Return.

Oh wow, so it turns out their plan worked. On the last few days of December, there were about 3 people that had a team of huge NU threats, and some RU Pokes that were low on usage (such as Mesprit and Scolipede), and would switch out every turn for the first full 6 turns. Then they would simply...

I just thought about this the other day: Can Effect Spore break Sleep Clause? Say you have already Spore'd an opponent's Poke with your Amoonguss, but you aren't running Regenerator, and the opponent activates Effect Spore with another Poke. Will they go to sleep, or is that breaking the clause?

I've checked veekun and the SmogonDex about the mechanics of Illusion and I feel like I've run across a bug. When selecting my team for Team Preview, I put Flygon in Slot 1 and Zoroark in Slot 6. I have my Flygon U-Turn out into Zoroark, which then turns out NOT to be disguised as Flygon. Since...

Sweet! It finally worked! Thanks for the trade! :) I really enjoyed your trivia. I have always loved Maine; me and my family always visit up there every summer, and I remember passing through a town called Saco before! Thanks again!

Yeah, I'm going to try that. Hopefully this will work out.

This is strange how the connection isn't going through between us... Everything going alright on your side?

That's okay. Do you mind naming it Psycules?

Yes. I'll be getting online right now. If you don't mind me asking: Did you get this Duosion from someone else or did you RNG it yourself?

Took about 2 minutes of googling. http://www.thorntonacademy.org/athletichistory There are two high schools, Thornton Academy (I'm assuming yours) and Biddeford High School in a game of football called "Battle of the Bridge." Seems that it's been going on for quite awhile. It's pretty cool that...

I know how this wasn't posted in the original post, but this: It would really interesting to see all the changes that have happened with the new weather abusers in the UU tier. Back when Drought was banned, Venasaur was also allowed in UU, and we can tell how overpowered that was. But that...

I really wasn't around in the competitive scene until the end of the Excadrill ban, and from what I recall, it's lack of counters and it's high speed with the added Swords Dance made it too powerful for the metagame to handle. The reason I mention this, is because I see that some people are...

Well I'll say since I haven't seen anyone else mention it. I see a lot of Hail teams run Heatran because it isn't x2 weak to SR, and that is can take all the Fire-type attacks directed towards the majority of Pokes on a team. But one Pokemon that I have experimented with is Chandelure. Of...

I really hope that this doesn't happen. Sand Veil as a whole is being banned due to Garchomp coming down, and I really hope that Speed Boost as a whole won't be banned, because Yanmega and Sharpedo are perfectly fine with it (although TintedLens+Specs Yanmega is pretty sweet too). And even...

I really haven't seen to many people mention this, but how viable is using Electroweb on Genesect? It seems that Scarf or Flame Charge is great, because it gives Genesect that +1 boost. But the main thing I feel with Genesect, is that the opponent is going to try and switch into something...

Anyone have a video of the finals from the Masters and Seniors division?

I really hope that these aren't the only places that are running the VGC this coming up year. I was very upset that I couldn't participate in VGC2012 with it not being in Newark, NJ and all. I could always drive to Philly, but I feel that is very out of the way. I'm not sure about how the...

Well I just had a completely thought out post with me saying that my opinion on Zangoose has changed thanks to Malkyrian's last post showing how it's a mind game until you finally find out what 4 moves Zangoose is running, and even then it might be too late. Then I went on with what Zebraiken...

Okay, so Facade seems to be an "obligatory move" on Zangoose no matter what. Now we have a problem here. With Facade, that means another move needs to be dropped from Quick Attack, Shadow Claw/Night Slash, Close Combat, and Swords Dance. Zangoose severely suffers from 4-Moveslot-Syndrome. Sure...

I thought about Facade, and here's why you don't want to use it: You are getting rid of a coverage move. Close Combat is crucial to take down Rocks and Steel types, while Shadow Claw is necessary to do anything to Ghost types. Quick Attack is what the community seems to be contemplating about...
