    Yeah, it doesn't quite work against teams like yours. You had to have had a Yache Berry on Garchomp. No sane person would have kept it in otherwise. Or at least, that's the way I look at it.
  2. Excuse me? I still had plenty of fight left in me. It was 5 to 6. No reason to DC.

    Ferrothorn @ Rocky Helmet Brave Nature Iron Barbs HP: 96/Def: 252/SDef: 168 Leech Seed Curse Gyro Ball Explosion Here's my version. It has no entry hazards only because of a personal preference. However, this set can effectively sweep after a few Curses. And if it can't, there's always...

    Actually, I might have an idea. All of my DC's recently have happened only when my brother is playing CoD on XBOX Live. I didn't think there was a connection before. But now I'm starting to wonder...

    I have no idea. But that battle was getting good! Perhaps another time. I should really be getting to sleep anyway.

    I vote for a Geriatric division! Ages 25+ That's where I'd fall in; I'll be 27 come VGC. I guess that's the other reason I fall ore into the "Casual" player crowd. I don't have TIME to be competitive... Writing novels and caring for 3 children doesn't leave a whole lot of time to create and...
  10. Pokemon Black & White, aka Gen 5. Coming to Japan in Fall 2010.

    Dolphins are mammals, not fish. I don't think I've ever laughed as hard at something posted on a forum as I did with this. You have made my day with this!

    All the more reason to have scrapped the idea! ^_^ can't blame a guy for trying though, right? Thanks for the input, all! I might post in here later if I manage to come up with anything else that may need experts to look over. Or I could leave it a surprise...tested out in private...
  12. The Reserves

    If that were possible and allowed, half of my team would be packing Baton Pass! I guess the reserves are up to a judgement call by the player before the start of the match. It boils down to who you'd be confident using to get you through the match. And for the record: The fact I used to play...
  13. The Reserves

    I think Zystral kind of hit it on the head. I used to play Magic: The Gathering TCG competitively. For those of you who have before as well, you'd know of the "Sideboard"--15 cards that you can change between games during your match based on what you're facing. It helps take out cards that are...

    Thank you. Even though it may not look like it based on what I post, I have been taking careful consideration into everything people have been telling me. You're all competitive players and I'm more casual. I need this kind of advice from people who know more about the format. So trust me, I'm...

    I'll concede to the "Two Real Attackers" point. I would have to make them pretty good choices. And you know, it occurred to me in the past hour that if I'm so concerned about sleep, there's always Hypno and Honchkrow; both with Insomnia. Hypno has access to Hypnosis (obviously) and can take a...

    I only mentioned two Pokemon. There are still four other slots for fitting in other, perfectly reliable Pokemon--perhaps even my own Dialga or some of the other restricted list. To say that I would make a whole team just to counter Smeargle is far too straightforward. I think anybody playing...

    You make a very good point. However, to me, the idea of sacrificing Alakazam for a Safeguard sure as hell beats the idea of half of my team being out to sleep and just sitting there whiie the opposition wipes me out. I don't DO calculations when making EV spreads because I don't give a rat's...

    Thanks for the input on the Gastrodon CCM and Darkwatch. I'm under the impression that "Sticky Hold" would be better since the only water attack I'm bound to see is "Surf"--which hits both Pokemon anyway. This way, I could also prevent being "Trick"ed because the item I have planned for him...

    Looks like I'll be scarfing the Alakazam, then. O_o' Or maybe use "Fake Out" on the OTHER pokemon instead of "Follow Me" seeing as the scrafed Alakazam I mentioned in my previous post would well outspeed the Smeargle for the "Safeguard", leaving "Dark Void" Null. I think "Safeguard" is...

    If the Smeargle goes first!? The thing has 75 Base speed! I like Showsni's suggestion of "Fake Out" on the Smeargle. But all it takes is a faster Pokemon to "Fake Out" my "Fake Out"er to cut me short. Here's what I'm seeing. 1. Defensively trained support Togekiss Uses Follow Me. 2. Timid Max...
