Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Proposing something for issue 34.
In short: a five-step guide to conquering the Pokémon world, fueled by the observation that none of the "evil teams" are particularly evil or capable. Which isn't exactly an original notion, but whatever. Blackly comedic tone.
Outline:
Introduction spiel...
Apparently I'm good at writing about how to make very very bad Pokémon taste very very good? Or at least not entirely shit at it? Since apparently the Tynamo analysis got clearance for an upload whenever such a thing is actually possible, which was, uh, kind of unexpected. So, uh, I guess you...
Overview
########
Tynamo is infinitely versatile. The EleFish Pokemon's unique, electrifying flavor makes for great sashimi, and goes well with a dash of black pepper and mustard seed in grilled Tynamo filets. It's also mild enough to be used in applications like stir-fries and paella without...
(I think this is okay, right? Sorry if it's not!)
Thundurus
Therian Forme
Anyway, this guy has been usable a very short time, but he's already proven himself very, very dangerous. He's terrifyingly powerful, with just enough Speed to exploit his gargantuan SpA. 145 SpA is the important thing...
(...do joke analyses even GET QC? whatever)
Delibird
[Overview]
<p>Delibird is incredibly badass. Unfortunately, it's regular-bad to an even greater extent. With a whopping 330 BST that makes Farfetch'd look powerful and its highest stat a whopping 65 SpA, Delibird is just all-around bad...
So, I've started work on a Pokémon simulator. G5, written in Python. Currently nothing worth releasing- working on very, very low-level stuff right now.
My aim in this simulator is to maximize the amount of the workload which is done serverside. As in- not only does the client download...
STATUS: let's get it started in here
http://veekun.com/dex/pokemon/toxicroak
[Overview]
Toxicroak's acceptable defensive stats, combined with Bulk Up and the rapid recovery afforded by Dry Skin and Drain Punch, make it very hard to take down.
Without a boost it's folding if it takes a hit...
STATUS: Skeleton is complete.
http://veekun.com/dex/pokemon/roselia
[Overview]
Roselia can reach fairly impressive defensive stats with proper investment.
Has a good support movepool to make use of these stats.
Poor typing, but can absorb Toxic Spikes.
Completely worthless in any offensive...
So, Gen V introduces IR battles and trading, via the card's integrated port.
Here's the thing: By definition, you should be able to receive those signals using external hardware and output them to a transmitter.
IR signals simply use infrared light; a receiver/transmitter like this one could...
Basically, it's annoying to go through the Pokemon list to find analyses for LC or UU/NU-viable NFEs and find that most of what's listed has no analysis. So, would it be possible to provide an option to filter out those that don't?
I've been using this for a while. It's an excellent lead, capable of rendering entire teams completely useless on occasion. It's probably the best Jynx set for use in OU, since the sweepers are simply SR fodder. Its only real problem is Jynx's Defense, which means it has to be played very...
