You know the level where you have to break all the china in the shop? I've been trying to get this one thing working, but never managed it, so I'd appreciate you guys trying to figure it out. Soprano+microphone+music.....you get the idea. The only problem is getting the stupid soprano to sing...

Not a bad story, but i agree with Zephyr. Lead Azelf is never seen without psychic, even if it's only to do some STABbed damage. lol Dugtrio. It's been ages since I've seen one used.

Sorry, but where was the suspect research thread moved to?

Damn good story. lolz @ scarfpert winning the game for you. Welcome to Smogon.

Have you tried running Grass knot over Wood Hammer? It still KO's most Ogres, and hits stuff like Groudon a lot harder.

Decent, for a first story I guess. lolz, you got the sh*$ haxed out of you that match. Congrats on the win

Replace DDnite with Salamence. It has the extra hitting power and Intimidate you need, as well as being fast, something your team seems to be missing. You don't really need the Kingdra on the team, especially since you aren't weak to rain dancers - not that i noticed anyway. If you need to...

The team as it stands covers weaknesses relatively well, but you may have problems with timid Gengar. Shadow ball, Focus Blast, Hp[Ice] hits 5/6 of your pokes hard and Machamp isn't really counted as a counter for it. Can I suggest you change Latias' nature to Timid, to at least pull a tie...

Actually, I think you'll find Bronzong benefits from the accuracy drop in Hypnosis. Because of it, fewer people run Sleep Absorbers, so Sleep is really a very good way of incapacitating a member of the opposing team. You can run the standard set, except with more success, especially seeing as...

Not really a massive problem, but I noticed that you don't really have a comprehensive Salamence counter. This could prove to be a problem for your team if you intend to run it competitively. While you have bulkier pokes like vaporeon and gliscor to take hits, you don't really have anything to...

Agreed, apart from the comment about payback. Taunt over AA, since it really does make a difference, especially against leads such as Metagross, and Bronzong. OK, I'm going to suggest a completely new set for the Scizor on your team to provide harder hitting power and more Physical bulk...

...Scarf Azumarill...?? It might be due to the fact that I've never seen one, but does such a thing exist in competitive pokemon? All the Azumarills I've seen are Banded.

Yeah, I found that pretty wierd as well. E-vire as well as Porygonz. I haven't actually seen any of them for one hell of a long time, but they're still in use...apparently.

Yeah, well, I still liked it. The real thing with this story is that I think you needed to expand a little on your commentary. You pretty much narrated the events as they came rather than providing thought processes behind them.

Nice story. I miss the days when wifi was less GG'd than it is now.

Yes, it is. Gallade had a period where every one of them was a double-status, and it was inevitably Hypnosis + something. Hypnosis was a very good move in its day, but GF nerfing its accuracy has pretty much eliminated its use, especially for stuff like Yanmega, Crobat, etc. On that topic...

Not bad, for a random battle. While you have a point about the strategy involved in random battles, this still wasn't the most 'warstoryable' battle, though.

Personally, I tend to use anything that has Natural Cure not named Starmie, since they can usually take the hit without much trouble. Also, another pokemon to note is Steelix who is immune to electricity, and can roar away threats. You do need to be careful, as Steelix really doesn't like...

I used to run a gimmick Forretress as well, but used Zap Cannon rather than Payback. I'm not entirely sure if this counts as a gimmick, but it worked great for a surprise paralysis, especially considering the number of flying/levitating pokes that used to come in on me expecting earthquake...

I dunno about that. That's the way the log was. This battle was a few weeks ago, so something might have happened since then.
