  1. Riolu - OU Copycat 'Sweeper'

    I'm pretty sure Circle Throw cannot be copied by CopyCat. Priority Roar can still be very effective though.
  2. Battle Subway

    I'm going to repost my Cloyster problems from a few pages ago: I'm still not sure on what to do, but I'm leaning toward the Adamant one. I usually carry a Garchomp with me in the Subway and it should be able to take the two faster Scarfers.
  3. Battle Subway

    I'm using the following Cloyster in super singles: Cloyster @ Focus Sash Jolly, 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HP - Shell Smash - Icicle Spear - Rock Blast - Razor Shell I realized Jolly + 252 is a bit much, as it outspeeds everything in the subway (after a Smash) with just 224 EVs. So I'm...
  4. Aldaron's proposal: Satisfied?

    The proposal was a step forward from just straight out banning either Drizzletoad or Kingdra (or Ludicolo/Kabutops). Drizzle certainly isn't broken without SwSw and SwSw isn't broken without drizzle. I personally like to see more complex bans in this case. I think the perfect ban would be...
  5. Battle Subway

    ^Your subway records are in the VS Recorder now. Took me a long time to find them too. Anyway, I just lost after a winning streak of 88. A Trick Room/Zen Headbutt/Rock Slide Bronzong flinchhaxed the crap out of my team (Cloyster/Conkeldurr/Garchomp). I'm loving Shell Smash Cloyster on the...
  6. Battle Subway

    I'm having some great results using an Inconsistent Octillery. Lead with something that can help the octopus set up, like a Trick/Flash Uxie or something that Baton Passes Ingrain or Aqua Ring. Have a fast sweeper (like a ScarfChomp or LO Starmie) in the last slot to clean up whatever Octillery...
  7. Challenge Nuzlocke Challenge

    I finished my Nuzlocke challenge of Black today, this was my final team (all somewhere between lv.52-55): Bambi the Sawsbuck Emo the Gothitelle Woof the Stoutland (I'm quite surprised this one survived all the way from Route 2) Beetleborg the Bisharp Vee the Victini Ice-T the Vanilluxe (was...
  8. Challenge Nuzlocke Challenge

    Just a little tip for all you Nuzlockers out there: wild Excadrills in the Victory Road know Horn Drill. It didn't hit when one used it, but it did scare the crap out of me.
  9. Challenge Nuzlocke Challenge

    I'm doing a Nuzlocke challenge on Black and I'm at Mistralton City (sixth badge). Like someone mentioned before, the nurses/doctors everywhere do make the grinding easier. I'm not looking forward to the pre-E4 grinding, though. My team: Scraggy Joltik Stoutland Vanillite Gothorita Litwick (all...
  10. B&W Research Thread

    Are you sure about this? I just tried this in White and it works fine with Roar (giving it priority), but whenever I try to copycat Overhead Throw, I'm getting a "..but it failed".

    Here it is: ポケモンセンター It should be a universal code, so anyone can use it.

    I just tested this ingame and you DO heal HP when you use drain punch on a sub. Bulbapedia says this was not the case in Gen 4, so this must have been changed.
  13. Starmie

    I think Expert Belt deserves a mention on the Choice set. Starmie has a great movepool to hit a lot of Pokes for SE damage and you can use it to fake a choice item. When you faint something with for example Thunderbolt, your opponent might think he can set up some ground type for free. That's...

    I can confirm that adding EVs at level 100 works. My DW Arceus gained a few Speed statpoints after fighting a couple of Pokes that give speed effort points (Lepardas in this case).

    I've got a simple question about berries. Since they aren't legally available in the fifth gen as of yet (as fas as I know); are stat-boosting berries (salac, liechi, etc.) banned on Wi-Fi random match? And another related question: does PO's Wi-Fi mode ban them, just as unreleased DW abilities...
