Terrdor - if your abomasnow was 360NoScope I'm pretty sure I played you final round. Was a good game. I just really wanted to run DrizzleToed this year, overall did about how I expected.

It was a fun tourney. I was the blue power ranger guy. Congrats to the capris for doing so well!

It's really a shame Tropius didn't get an evolution with better typing, the poor bananasaur is 4x weak ice and Exeggutor (who is still awesome) is usable but 4x weak bug. Getting harvest on a defensively typed pokemon would have been amazing. I'm kind of curious about doubles with Harvest...

Mwahaha that was exactly what I had in mind. Awesome, thanks!

A few more questions about Pickup: I heard earlier in the thread that you could pickup an item that was used with Fling, is this confirmed? I didn't see it on the first page. What happens if two pokemon have Pickup and both use their item, like in a double battle? Are both items picked up?

I don't know if this is really a simple question but I could really use some help with this. My mom has really wanted to play Pokemon with us like she used to do on Pokemon Stadium 1&2 when we were younger. However, PBR is terrible, not compatible with HG/SS and I don't even think it lets...

Arbok already has a pretty cool movepool, his main problem is his lackluster stats and that Poison is such a bad offensive type. If he had a second type, I'd lean Dark or Ground just for more offensive options. I'll probably get laughed at for this, but I thought making Weezing a...

I'm hoping they do like they did in D/P where theres a bunch of evolutions for previously neglected pkmn in the expanded dex. Banette, Weezing, and Jynx evolutions would be sweet. If they buffed some of the truly NU like Arbok, I'd be REALLY happy.

I've been making up challenges for myself and my siblings to make it harder or at least less predictable. For SS/HG we're doing a random team where we random number generated 6 pkmn, with the exception you can't use ubers that are uber due to stats. Then we design the pokemon and create...

Thanks Dav, that sounds like a solid idea, I'll try out Sub and/or Protect, I figured Bug Bite could go. I'll try Expert Belt or Life Orb on Heatran and give Shuckle the Berry, with Substitute he would have more staying power. I still have no idea how to deal with Taunt though, I suppose the...

Yeah I figured it was too cool to work, what if I used follow me? It was working in battle tower, but I figured there was something easy I was forgetting. Generally if I detect something with a priority I just switch in Omb and use Trick Room. If they had both priority and taunt I'm hosed. I...

I love double battles and figure this would be a good place to post a team I've been working on. Hopefully no one's posted this before. Bronzong @ Lum Berry Levitate Nature: +Special D -Speed 252 HP / 152 Atk / 8 Def / 96 SpD 0 Speed IVs Hypnosis Trick Room Gyro Ball Explosion Wait for...

Oh dang didn't know it was that easy, so in other words Pokesav'd pokes are technically legit and undetectable by Nintendo? I highly doubt I would ever go to an event but just wanted to make sure that I wouldn't be labeled as cheating with perfectly legal pokes.

Legitimacy question: If I use Pokesav to generate a Ditto with 31 in each IVs and an Electabuzz with 30 IVs, and then breed them to up my chances of getting 30/31s in the stats I want, will Nintendo's legitimacy checker consider the offspring legit? I obviously wouldn't be pitching them as...

One of my favorites that I have been playing around with lately has been Stallstoise + SubSeedile/SubSeedlypluff Blastoise can't do damage worth squat, but he does have amazing stalling abilities. The sleep set especially, his defenses are just really good and with only two weaknesses, both...

Curious how Tentacruel got in on the gains list? I rarely see him, he has many uses but I never thought he was that amazing of a spinner/defensive type.

If you use him to PP stall you're not going to get far. Think of it this way, he Encores, you hit him once, likely hard unless it's a wall or you didn't have a strong move, then he counters/mcoats it and kills you but at this point he's probably below 30%, next pokemon either chases him off or...

The ladder is a way of testing how effective your team is. I understand that Evasion and OHKO take no skill and only work if lucky. The sleep and ice clause have been around since Stadium for good reason. My argument is that Wobb is counterable, but he's also good enough that he should be on...

So, I have this issue. I've always thought Wobb was cool since G/S/C. Then they introduced that Shadow Tag ability which everyone despises and got him Uber status in S/R/FR/LG. Now he's unbanned on Shoddy and I'm enjoying his niche role as a forced switch and wall eater. However, most...

Argh, I tried him last night on a regular team and he really didn't work out, it may have just been a bad fit but it seemed like his speed still wasn't enough to keep him in long, on the bright side he did occasionally take out one poke. It seemed too much like he had serious issues with mixed...
