  1. HGSS Megaspeculation Thread

    Another question is what teams will have the gym leaders and the E4. I would really like that the gym leaders could be refighted after E4, and with improved teams...
  2. HGSS Megaspeculation Thread

    The most important thing about competitive pokemon, is the move tutors. What moves do you think will be as move tutors?
  3. HGSS Megaspeculation Thread

    First one: Raichu Second one: Pikachu Third one: Pichu it's quite clear I think...
  4. np: Manaphy - Blame It On The Rain?

    The big surprise in this new metagame is: Shedinja!. - The metagame is focused in Rain Dance, so it won't be worried about Hail or Sandstorm. - There isn't almost steel types in this metagame, as all water types can break them easily, so it can wreak havok with Shadow Sneak and X-Scissors. -...

    Thanks Mr. Doug. Swords Dance Scizor has counters, but Yache Garchomp doesn't. Anyway, Scizor will be used a lot for a long time, although I think that it won't rise again its usage.
  6. How do you switch into T-Bolt/T-Wave?

    Why not Lanturn? It absorbs electric attacks, Grass Knot has a 40BP if I remember correctly on it, it has great special defense thanks to its HP, and great type, as it's one of the users that can resist Electric/Ice. Furthermore, it completely walls Starmie and can spread some paralysis with...
  7. Stop Using Him! (Dragonite Discussion)

    I would like to say that a set with Dragon Dance, Outrage/Dragon Claw, Substitute and Focus Punch can be really bulky, and dangerous. First of all, you Dragon Dance, as the opponent sends something to stop it, and the most probable one is a status. So a Substitute stop it, and you are free to...
  8. Foreign metagames

    I simply don't understand that OU Chinesse list... I can't Where is Blissey? and Lucario? and Garchomp? and Salamence?!?!? However Ludicolo is there, as well as Umbreon... I can't understand it...

    First of all, thanks a lot DJD Just a Question... wtf?
  10. np: UU - The Brave and the Bold (Nominations) (TOO LATE)

    Staraptor It can 2HKO almost every pokemon in UU with Brave Bird, Return and Close Combat, and with its great speed and Intimidate, it's enough bulky to take down. Furthermore, it can use the U-Turn+Intimidate combo to be even more annoying, while a Life Orb set can use Roost to restore all...
  11. np: UU - A New Beginning

    In NU Hail could be good with Glalie, which has the same trait as Walrein: Ice Body, so don't forget that it can be sturdier in NU than Walrein in UU.
  12. np: UU - A New Beginning

    I use 2 different teams in UU, both with great success, and I don't use Staraptor, Shaymin or Raikou. The only "suspect" I use is Spiritomb, because I need a Gallade counter... Anyway, how will be the vote about UU suspects?
  13. np: UU - A New Beginning

    There will be some BLs because in this new UU tier some pokemon are too strong to the rest of UU. MY list of suspects: 1.- Raikou 2.- Staraptor 3.- Shaymin I only have problems with them. Raikou with it's amazing speed and special attack, and decent coverage, can really sweep a team without...
  14. np: UU - A New Beginning

    After playing a lot in this new UU metagame, and reach a good place in the top, with stall teams and sweeper teams I have some opinions: - Raikou is quite strong, and if you don't guess correctly what set it's using, you have to sacrifice a member of your team. Although Steelix is a good one...
  15. np: UU - A New Beginning

    Clefable can Encore Walrein and recover with Softboiled, while it's not damaged by poison, spikes or hail. Without Weavile or Mamoswine, there isn't a good Ice physical sweeper. Furthermore, there are a lot of grounded Poison in UU, with Nidoqueen, Roserade, Muk or Drapion everywhere... Toxic...
  16. Percentage Perils: A suspect Warstory.

    Great Warstory!!. But a question, why do you use Roost in Latias, when you can use Recover without removing Levitate? It's not part Flying, so it's not affected to the ice weakness...
  17. An RMT surprisingly...

    It's quite strange, but you are totally walled by Gastrodon. With its great HP and Special Defense, Heatran and Rotom won't touch it, and Alakazam won't OHKO with Psychic, while a strong Earthquake could be deathly. If you think about Trick, Sticky Hold will stop it. After Azelf explodes, only...
  18. The New Face of UU

    Chansey will be a must with Thyplosion, Shaymin, Raikou, Ludicolo and others, and it works like Blissey, but without Ice Beam, which isn't so needed, because all the dragons are in OU but Altaria. The only problem would be Mismagius, but there are a lot of things that stop it in this new UU...
  19. np: Latias - Don't Do the Dew! (NOTE: explanation of Skymin's fate within)

    I've been playing in the Suspect ladder during the month, and I have a strong point of view about Latias: it's good, but everything that she can do, another pokémon can do it better. I will explain it: If you want a good Calm Minder, Latias works wonders, but Suicune is simply superior. If you...
  20. np: Latias - Don't Do the Dew! (NOTE: explanation of Skymin's fate within)

    KD24, your team stalls me all day long, but it's not because of Latias, it's because of good sinergy. I don't really see how Latias could shine. If you want to be an special tank, Blissey does it better. Calm Mind? Suicune. Wish support? Vaporeon or Blissey again. Special Sweeper? Azelf or...
