  1. Pokémon Talonflame

    I run adamant banded as well and the fourth move I use is Aerial ace, sometimes you just want a priority move but don't want the recoil. It works perfectly fine and I actually use it almost as commonly as I'd use X-Scissor on a Terrakion. I am of the opinion that this bird is probably the...
  2. Ability Sand Veil + Snow Cloak - Balanced now?

    Its more about what you can do to control it. There are a few moves that counter minimize fairly well now, it'd be interesting to see what a metagame with evasion would look like. I think its comparable to sleep clause at the moment, and GF has given enough ways to deal with it that it could be...
  3. Ability Sand Veil + Snow Cloak - Balanced now?

    Throw in a keen eye buff and a buff to the accuracy of whirlwind and the premier gliscor/garchomp counter is now surefire. Getting past Skarmory is noticeably easier with passive evasion.
  4. Simple Questions/Requests - Mark 30 (Minor Pokemon Trades, Item Requests, etc GO HERE)

    I really need it to be male to pass on the egg moves, and jolly to pass on the nature. I have a female ready, perhaps if you could breed one? I only need HP/SpD/Spe, the others can be anything at all
  5. Simple Questions/Requests - Mark 30 (Minor Pokemon Trades, Item Requests, etc GO HERE)

    Ok I'm going to up the offer and give 3 different spitback pokemon to whoever does this favour, all will be 4IV's in relevant stats with the relevant abilities. I really need a jolly DD/Outrage pokemon with 31 IV's in HP/SpD/Spe :)
  6. Simple Questions/Requests - Mark 30 (Minor Pokemon Trades, Item Requests, etc GO HERE)

    Hi, I'd like to borrow somebodies male Dragonite/Charizard that is jolly with IV's of 31 in HP, SpD and Spe for a breeding project, the other IV's can be anything (will need for about 10-15 minutes tops), if possible I need dragon dance and outrage as I need them for egg moves. As collateral, I...
  7. Some sort of Egg 'RNG' Abuse (Read the first post!)

    Used a pair of braixen as test parents. Noticed the randomized IV was attack so used two protean froakie parents that had the right distribution of the rest of the stats, the baby came out with 4IV's... AND it had torrent when the baby fennekin had magician. Weird, it worked perfectly when I...
  8. Some sort of Egg 'RNG' Abuse (Read the first post!)

    I've been messing around with this, but I want to ask, you have to collect an egg after the initial rejected one before rejecting the 2nd egg if you didn't need/like the original "RNG'd" composition, right? because I thought I got super lucky on an RNG where mother only passed def, father passed...
  9. Simple Questions/Requests - Mark 30 (Minor Pokemon Trades, Item Requests, etc GO HERE)

    Requesting a shellos or gastrodon with 2 or more IV's, does anybody have any? In return I will give you a lucky egg attached to a pokemon :) If by any chance, somebody has bred relaxed shellos with 3+IV's and female, I'd give something better, just let me know. I prefer messages please because...
  10. Some sort of Egg 'RNG' Abuse (Read the first post!)

    So what you're telling me is that, in theory, I could catch a couple of 3 and 4IV ditto. Then get a synchronize pokemon and catch a stack of pokemon I want (say petilil for example) with the nature I want. Then when I figure out the way the destiny knot works, i can go right from a 2 or 3IV...
  11. Simple Questions/Requests - Mark 29 (Minor Pokemon Trades, Item Requests, etc GO HERE)

    Does anybody want to trade their lucky eggs (from chansey safari) for my metal coats? I also have a shiny ferrothorn and shiny Excadrill with non-competitive natures that I am willing to trade
  12. Sticky Have a question? Ask it here! (NOT SM QUESTIONS)

    Ok thanks, the idea is I could potentially put up an unwanted pokemon for something it'll never "usually" get.
  13. Sticky Have a question? Ask it here! (NOT SM QUESTIONS)

    Ok I posted in the wrong SQSA thread, reposting here: If I have pokemon x and pokemon y, could I use the GTS to trade items and pokemon between them? For example if I left a bidoof on X version GTS asking for a froakie, would I see the offer to trade when I open up my Y version game?

  15. Simple Questions/Requests - Mark 29 (Minor Pokemon Trades, Item Requests, etc GO HERE)

    I am interested in upgrading a 3IV ditto to a 4IV one, but I'm not sure what a 4IV is worth, the nature won't matter at all just whether its 4IV or not, does anybody know what I should be able to trade for a 4IV ditto? would people take certain items attached to a 3IV ditto for example? That...
  16. Other Looking Ahead to Gen VI Mark II (SEE POSTS #818 & #858)

    Ghost is the new dragon in terms of coverage, but flying comes a close second! I didn't like that GameFreak took the initiative to improve ghosts and indirectly buff dark types (even though its poor against fairy) but continued ignoring ice/rock/grass/bug. A Pokemon has a rock/ice dual typing...
  17. Entry Hazards - Are They Broken?

    My only gripe with the pro-banning SR school of thought (I think a suspect test on SR is a good idea though, if for no other reason than to see what the meta could evolve to) is that it doesn't necessarily favour ice/fire/bug types like everyone is saying, it does necessarily favour ALL...
  18. OU Stats (May 2013)

    Sorry A little late on my reply, Zapdos and Raikou are both limited by their STAB + Coverage options offensively, Raikou might have weather ball but is let down by its speed and inability to switch into attacks (Jolteon can't switch into attacks either but is faster). Defensively, Zapdos is...
  19. OU Stats (May 2013)

    Strange opinions you have, I'd like to raise a few points... Vaporeon is the only pokemon on the list you said that doesn't really do anything for OU, the rest are all solid OU pokemon and I don't see a reason why they "should" be UU? Even Donphan is there because it spins and checks some...
  20. Gen 5 The OU Viability Ranking thread

    I stand by Weavile making one of the best late game cleaners with nothing but 4 attacks (no pursuit) in this meta.. Considering with a psyshock/thunderbolt/hiddenpowerfire/trick set on a gothitelle to trap almost every weavile hard counter and the fact that most teams run only 1 weavile hard...
