Okay, so long story short I've mostly been playing BSS on cart with kind of uncoordinated, random cores built on the fly from whatever pokes I had trained and available, and while that works pretty well in the 15-1600 range life starts getting rough once you start running into the actually good...

Dragonite #149 Dragon/Flying 91 HP / 134 Atk / 95 Def / 100 SAtk / 100 SDef / 80 Spe Abilities: Inner Focus (Prevents Flinching) Hidden Ability: Multiscale (Reduces damage by 50% when full HP) Confirmed new (TM) moves: Round Confide Power up Punch Complete TM and HM compatibility lists can be...

Well, I've been absent from playing since before platinum version, but now I've gotten back into it. I don't really like the new OU but I've found the new NU to be very fun. I've won a few matches with this team (after the period of playing against the clueless folks, though I admit I did...

I'm bored so I decided to re-download shoddybattle and rebuild some teams for today's game. It'll probably be a bit oldschool (last time I played Deoxys-S had just been re-banned from OU and everyone had bullet punch scizor) but please take a look. Azelf, Naieve nature, 252sp. atk/252spe/4atk...

I got one for Christmas after saying I didn't really think I'd use it, boy was I wrong. Basically, it's an electronic book device, uses digital ink technology so battery drain is very low. I recharged it for an hour on Christmas day and it's been running ever since, probably spent 15 hours on it...

So, all of my old shoddy teams are gone now, I guess that means I'm making a new one. Metagross, Jolly nature, 252spe/252hp/4atk @ Choice Scarf Trick Stealth Rock Explosion Bullet Punch One of my new favorites, this set, even with its shitty EV spread, deals a ton of damage. Scarf gets...

This is a variation of an old stall team of mine, built to handle Platinum additions (and abuse them in some cases) The Lineup: Swampert, Relaxed nature, 240hp/216def/52sp. atk @ Leftovers Ability: Torrent Stealth Rock Roar Earthquake Ice Beam Standard lead mixpert. Roar so setups have a...

I've never made a pure offensive team, in all of my time playing. I'm doing this to see how it turns out. The Lineup: Metagross, Jolly nature, 200atk/252hp/58spe@ Choice Scarf Trick Stealth Rock Bullet Punch Explosion Suggested by Twist of Fate, trickscarfing 'gross seems to be a good idea...

I have a difficult time really putting how shitty this game was into words, let me run down a bulleted list of what I thought was retarded: - All boss fights have a scripted ending which requires you to hit a sequence of buttons, or swing the wiimote/nunchuck around like a moron for Wiitards...

We should all know by now that Scizor has gotten Bullet Punch as a new priority attack with the Platinum tutors, it's probably the second most important new move out there, behind Outragemence. Anyways, this team is made to exploit that. Swampert, Relaxed nature, 240hp/216def/52sp. atk @...

This is basically my favorite stall team that I've been using since the suspect ladder that has been slightly modified for use taking into account a few new suspected major threats, such as Skymin and Outragemence. Fixing it to handle those threats has probably opened a metric fuckton of new...

Yeah, I saw a thread talking about non sub CM Raikou earlier today and decided I should revisit my old friend on the suspect ladder. He was integral to the first successful shoddy team that I created but as we all know the metagame (also, ever increasing chomp usage) pretty much passed him by...

With the removal of Garchomp I'm finding a lot of tactics that are becoming more viable and old favorites of mine that went in the trash due to chomp simply being too overwhelmingly strong are easier to use, team is mostly meant to stall while my other team was more balanced, I haven't tried a...

My old team both included Deoxys - S and was geared around the fact that ~60% of all teams ran Garchomp so I had to abandon it. Swampert, Impish nature, 252hp/252def/4atk @ Leftovers Earthquake Stone Edge Avalanche Stealth Rock Standard physical swampert. I like mixpert personally, but he...

Darkfall Online is a somewhat obscure title with a devoted (nearly fanatical) following. It was announced in 2001 as an indie MMO devoted to being basically UO with more features and not trammeled the fuck up. Out of those humble roots, it has grown into a huge project that has taken eight...

I've got a problem, Smogon. I suck at UU. I'm a solid OU player though I'm not high on the ladder due to a lack of playtime, but whenever I go into UU my win/loss ratio pretty much goes to hell, and I only win due to hax. A lot of this is due to my lack of real knowledge of what to look out for...

http://www.portfolio.com/views/blogs/the-tech-observer/2008/07/17/ea-to-play-in-knights-of-the-old-republic This game sounds good in concept but will probably be shit. The only company with a longer track record of fucking up MMOs is SoE. 20 bucks says they take the WoW route and steal the EQ...

Eh, I got bored of using my standard team, so I put together something at least a little bit more innovative. Tell me what you think: Heatran, Modest nature, 20hp/252sp. atk/236spe @ Choice Scarf Hidden Power (Ice) Earth Power Overheat Flamethrower/Dragon Pulse Standard scarftran, fucks up...

Well, I made a new semi-spike team with a two man clean up crew. It has issues, needless to say. Swampert, Relaxed nature, 240hp/216def/52sp. atk @ Leftovers Earthquake Ice Beam Surf Stealth Rock Sets up SR and can do some damage with a standard mixpert set, also serves as a fire resist...

I've recently started playing again (I'm an on and off kind of guy) and I kept getting rocked, hard. I even lost to a focus sash ninjask lead once which was humiliating. I've looked at the more current trends and I think I've assembled a team that will work well, after a little testing I've...
