  1. Gen VII: Pokémon Sun and Moon (New info Post #5834)

    I'm trying to think of all the unique TM from RBY that weren't brought back in RSE or later (meaning you can't use them in the current games even after transferring your Pokemon up from gen 3). I may have missed some or listed the wrong ones due to all the various move tutors over the years but...

  3. Gen 6 np: XY Ubers Gengarite Suspect Test - In The Shadows [READ POST #71]

    It looks like I'm too late to quality to vote, but I just thought I'd post my opinion. Correct me if I'm off. I personally always thought of uncompetitive as a luck based element of the game. That is to say, it is close to impossible for your opponent to win if you're just lucky enough. Double...

    Wow, so you've been doing this birthday routine for four years now? Very persistent of you. Out of curiosity, around how much time do you think you've spent doing this, and do you do it anywhere other than Smogon?

    Are you one of the other three people on my profile? LPFan, tawp64, and FenrirXIV, or did you wish me a happy birthday elsewhere?

    Thanks, I took a look at your profile. Looks like you wished a few hundred people a Happy Birthday just in the last few weeks. You must really enjoy spreading around the birthday cheer, huh?
  8. Old Name and Profile Change Requests

    I want my username changed to Sykikal. I had it as "phsycical" to represent a mix between physical and psychic (eg. body and mind) but I realized when going on Skype and other voice programs no one actually knew how to pronounce my username and most people just think it is a typo of physical...
  9. Masuda Method Without Shiny Charm

    It seems like there haven't been many updates lately. Is anyone still working on hatching eggs for this thread?
  10. Masuda Method Without Shiny Charm

    Looks like someone did it again. I suppose that's the drawback to having a spreadsheet that anyone can edit.
  11. SwagPlay, evaluating potential bans (basic definition of "uncompetitive" in OP)

    I've always hated confusion ever since generation 1, and Foul Play/Prankster just made it that much worse. I'd be in favor of just banning Swagger, Confuse Ray, and Flatter altogether under a Confusion Clause in the same way that Double Team and Minimize are banned. It's completely luck based...
  12. Masuda Method Without Shiny Charm

    I don't think we should include results from eggs hatched prior to making a pledge. As long as the new parent has the same region as the one you're replacing I don't think it makes a difference in the shiny hatching odds. I've never heard of this "chain" when it comes to breeding.
  13. Masuda Method Without Shiny Charm

    I don't see why that would influence the data. As long as you're still using Masuda Method (parents are of different region) you should be fine.
  14. Masuda Method Without Shiny Charm

    Ideally we would have a separate test for Masuda Method and tipping but I'm not sure people are that patient. So I thought we might as well take advantage of the research we're already gathering and kill two birds with one stone. There seem to be some websites that indicate tipping influences...
  15. Masuda Method Without Shiny Charm

    (Note: I mistakenly put 0-5 in the post and later corrected it to 0-10). That would probably be better, but I'm not sure people really keep track of their tipping very well. Someone can probably come up with something a little better than this, but what I had in mind is something along the...
  16. Masuda Method Without Shiny Charm

    I've heard rumors about tipping influencing the chance of encountering a shiny. I'm skeptical, but I think we might as well test that while we're at it. I added an extra field to the chart asking how often do you tip on a scale from 0-10, 0 meaning no tipping, 10 meaning a tremendous amount of...

    Excellent job with the auto shiny machine. Looks like a lot of work went into it. It'll be great to have your help with the research. I'm sure it can help get the research done much more quickly.
  18. Shiny Charm and Masuda Method

    I just did another 200 which brings my total up to 800 and I finally got a shiny.
  19. Masuda Method Without Shiny Charm

    I don't know why that would matter. As long as both the parents are different regions you should be fine (I heard a rumor about it being language but North America and Japan are different on both counts).
  20. Masuda Method Without Shiny Charm

    Hi, always glad to see people up for helping. Maybe I should have clarified this more. The general notion that Wichu pointed out is that there is a bias among people who started hatching eggs prior to making a pledge. People who get shinies are probably more likely to report how many hatches it...
