  2. Upsetting The Metagame

    Mr. Black is correct, Pokemon are developed without a huge concideration of what new moves or Pokemon can and can not accomplsh on a competetive battle field and more of how they are useful in game. However, Bullet punch on Scizor, I believe was a purposeful additon for competetive game play...
  3. NU Discussion Thread (Mark II)

    No, No, No I am not fighting the tier system, it is brilliant, you misunderstand....I am directing this purely at the NU tier, I am saying most are marketing gimmicks and are meant to be used ingame not really in the metagame [except for Marowak, Charizard [do not even get started on Zard he...
  4. What makes HP more important than accuracy?

    FourthChaser is correct, physical fighting is more oriented towards Bliss in 'Nape's situation and the damage from LO and Blitz is high so what would be the point?
  5. Which aspect of Dragons is more broken: Pokémon or Moves?

    Essentially, what I am meaning to say is that the way the current metagame is we cannot truly fix the dragon problem meaning the moves nor Pokemon, we should test Chomp and Mence in OU without Outrage or DM, no pun or sarcasm intended. I am aware this sounds a bit crazy but see if this works, I...
  6. What makes HP more important than accuracy?

    It is just preference in the metagame in the way it has evolved
  7. NU Discussion Thread (Mark II)

    I do not fully understand the importance of NU, these Pokemon are marketing gimmicks for Nintendo to use in the Anime and toys not for Pokemon Battles. Not to be Pokemon-Racist however these POkemon have their place and it is in Marketing, and INGAME [Not METAGAME] checks for the Elite 4
  8. Team preferences

    To think about it Bulky Offense and Quick Stall is the evolution of the current metagame with Waters, specifically utilizing rain dance. This is my main idea.. Levels of Teams in Metagame from Offensive to Defensive: ~ Heavy Offense ~ Bulky Offense ~ Balanced ~ Quick Stall ~ Tradition...
  9. Blissey

    The Blissey factor is a needed part of today's Standard Metagame, without it who would indefinitely wall the power hitters in OU? Wait Lite, what about PG2 or Lax, they are a part of the forgotten Standard Metagame it would bring them back to life!!!! No, not true with Blissey gone there would...
  10. Which aspect of Dragons is more broken: Pokémon or Moves?

    This is the same though I have had for a good time now.... Both aspects of dragons are a bit broken in the way the dragon Pokemon use dragon moves to operate. With Outrage and DM gone the powerhouses like Mence and Chomp seem less lethal as well as the Pokemon using these moves that are semi...
  11. Froslass - Ice Queen

    Frosslass is a decent spiker, and it's ability works well partnering with Abomasnow
  12. The "tier" of "NU" Items, and a discussion on how can they be used competitively.

    QuickClaw could be used for those slower leads or walls....If you are lucky and there are no magnezones it could work well on Skarmory
  13. Smogon Shoddy Server Statistics - November 2009

    Possibilities.... The current metagame this month could be easily conquered by Cross and Empoleon or Roserade leads. It is suprising many teams haven't incorperated this anyway

    Need some decent Garchomp sets for WiFi, any ideas PM me, Thanks
  15. Upsetting The Metagame

    There is no way of limiting the effects on new threats or old threats on the everchanging metagame. The metagame will always adapt to the new environment like most large enterprises in the world such as the stock market or poloics. This everchanging game makes Pokemon never become too...
  16. Upsetting The Metagame

    I believe the metagame has been shifted to a certain point of view on the usability spectrum. The only way to advance our countering ability is come out with the most unexpected move-sets with the most common Pokemon such as TTar, Mence, and the Red Rocket [Scizor]. If we tap into their...
  17. New and 'creative' moveset/EV spread thread Mk. 5

    I had created this set myself and found someone else and the similar idea within the RMT Forums, go figure. However this is a bulky Scizor set perfect for countering it's dominate counters and even set up for another frail offensive Pokemon via BP. Here we go, this is Brilliant.... Pokemon...
