Running a classic sunstall. Ninetales/Dugtrio/Heatran/Jellicent/Cress/Forry I'm having trouble with other stall teams, specifically Blissey/Gliscor, as well as Reuniclus/Alakazam. I'm new so I'm not sure if I'm playing it wrong or just have a bad matchup. Against the former, I just PP stall but...

What's the benefit of running Kyurem over Kyu-b? Especially in regards to a hail team

The last three you mentioned are great for bringing a new experience to old games by just modifying wild list areas and difficulty. As for total revamps, I like Brown and Light Platinum. I can only imagine the amount of work you'd have to do to retweak whole maps and scripting, as well as still...

I've used Azumarill in previous games (Plat?) and even though it has amazing attack, it takes too many hits it shouldn't take for a top tier Pokemon, especially coupled with its bad defenses. I'm not going to weigh in on a tier because I haven't used it this time but I don't even know if I'd...

Shard grinding still is somewhat of a grind though. You get 10 free red shards and that's the biggest tutor, and the next one's rather useless but I had about ~5 shards in every color by the time I hit Humilau and it took about 20 minutes to farm another 5. If only you could choose what color...

In fact my Magmortar was the better of my two fire types since at least I had more bulk and could hit from both ends of the spectrum. One thing Volcarona does have going for him is he's probably the best postgame cleaner, but that's not really relevant to the tier list. One argument for the...

Alright, finished E4 and here's my quick informal impressions Riolu - High-Top Basically carried me through so many battles. My team composition wasn't great (just picking random stuff that I didn't use in BW), and he basically held everything together. He cleared the last third of the game...

I've got an egregiously bad memory so I can't remember, but Sigilyph has the tools to get past Scrafty. My main gripe is just not wanting to run pokes that require constant switching or babying against certain areas in the game due to type resistances. For example, I've got Volcarona on my...

You can just do one complete run through the Mix Battle Subway (having your partner carry you) and grab a Brick Break TM to fix the Riolu/Force Palm problem. It's not efficient, but it's not like you're grinding wild pokes and it may be something you'd be interested in doing anyways. I also...

He's saying you cannot ban SR from one tier only. Those two clauses were banned universally from all tiers. Nor are people taking the easy way out, since SR is not broken. You seem to be taking the easy way out of the discussion by just mentioning how SR keeps some threats in check as if it's...

froslass is just as good as rose/deo-d or even better (beats rose imo) froslass is faster (ie beats deo-d), can ward off xatu (unlike deo-d), acts as a bad spinblocker (but as stated, still better than nothing) and also has an extra utility option of destiny bond

I actually support the idea of one SS + Drizzle. I feel that the ban is too restrictive and largely only in place because the 'quality of play' of 3~4 swift swimmers + politoed + nat/zap/scizor/rotom/etc was just dumb. Having one swift swimmer should open up a lot of viability for rain

Zorua: low tier. It took forever to level up, and now that it's level 50 nearing endgame it's still dying to stupid stuff like level 39's in victory road. It's defenses are ass, its typing is poor and its offensive moves are Night Slash, Shadow Ball and Focus Blast. It usually takes two of these...

I cheated to get Victini and Zorua. Here are my opinions so far Victini: If there's one Pokemon that deserves HGSS Scyther tier, it's this guy. Mew stats early on is like having a tier 3 evo by the first few gyms. His movepool is good - he starts off at level 15 and learns headbutt by 17, which...

gooder and quicklier hm

um this really wasn't close to a good battle

the wolf parade members really get around

i thought veckatimest > mpp. i didn't really enjoy sunset rubdown but it was decent enough pretty much jerking off to the same things as 'extra'

Probably when the beta of the new site is released

This doesn't really solve the whole "wishing it was a metagame" idea thing, but it's still a nice idea none-the-less
