Positives of Suspects missing: 1) Lead pokemon have varied greatly. The five most common UU leads in May were Crobat, Uxie, Ambipom, Rosearde, and Yanmega. With the removal of Crobat I've seen a lot more Arcanine, Moltres, and Omastar leads. Furthermore, more than 1 out of every 10 teams...

As has been mentioned Absol fits the Honchkrow role as well, possibly even better than Honchkrow did. It has ever so slightly better attack and speed, and Swords Dance to be used if they are trying to mess with your Sucker Punch. The only thing Absol misses out on is Drill Peck. Sucker Punch...

I've likewise found Sub/Seed Sceptile to be quite effective. It's faster than anything remaining other than Electrode and Swellow. Absol is also fairly effective in the current situation. It can fill Honchkrow's niche despite not having as much type coverage. With Swords Dance and base 130...

The fact that it's exponential simply shows that people acknowledge the more obvious synergy of various combinations. There's absolutely no way that such a correlation could be expressed as a Normal, Laplacian, or Maxwell distribution. I'm somewhat surprised that an exponential curve fits...

I'm unsure if it's an error in the program you used to draw the graphs, or an anomaly in the data itself, but the suspect ladder graph appears to have a different derivative than expected between x = 20 and x = 35. While I agree with you 100% that the other three curves all follow an...

Porygon 2 is essentially fully-evolved as it has significantly different stat allocation than Porygon Z.

Originally in GSC, shinies had set IVs. I believe 10s (on the old 0-15 system) for everything except attack which had about 8 options. I'm curious if they'll do a similar thing for the guaranteed shiny gyarados and baseline it at 20/21 across the board.

\The Evs you mentioned for Crobat don't match the ones you listed above. If you're trying to minimize the amount of Speed EV usage in order to maximize attack, I'd suggest Jolly nature with 56 speed evs. That will grant you 340 Speed which is Timid Mismagius +1. That will allow you to U-turn...

Crobat As I have stated in a previous thread, and as Gay_Dolphin has reiterated here, Crobat is the most versatile pokemon in the tier while using only one set. Although Crobat is not the offensive powerhouse, the defensive wall, or support-based lifeline that typically defines a borderline...

I know I'm new here, but I thought I'd share some thoughts on the Crobat issue. Of the Pokemon that are capable of switching into Crobat's Brave Bird effectively, I know of only two that can deal significant damage to the annoying prick before U-turn hits: Cloyster and Piloswine. Without...

Oh right, sorry, I was in a rush, due to work. Everything is getting Leftovers except for Cloyster with Focus Sash. Also editing it into the original post.

Introduction: Before I start, a few notes about myself and my team. I was a fairly serious competitive pokemon player on the old Azure Heights RBY simulator, and IRC bots during GSC, 200 RS, and early 386. However, some time around mid 386 I lost interest, and haven't played seriously sense...
