  1. Pokemon VGC 2010 DATES / rules announced for the US!

    About the first-come, first-serve basis... Do you think people will be allowed to camp out? Or will there be a pre-determined time when the contestants are permitted to start lining up?
  2. Best Movie of 2009?

    I did love Avatar, despite its ripped-off plot, some bad acting, and lackluster script, for three reasons. One: I'm a tree-hugger, so I enjoyed the pro-environmental morals. Now, that's not to say I would've liked this movie if it had only had this message, but it's a plus nonetheless. Two: I...
  3. Smeargle's Studio General Thread: Spriting and Banners go here!

    Thank you so much!!! =D It looks awesome; I commend your ability to put up with the long request list and really appreciate you taking the time to do mine. ^^
  4. Apprentice Program - "Round Fourty Six" - Zone B (10 PM - 6 AM EST)

    Username: Randominator Age: 14 Shoddy Username: Randominator Your timezone: GMT -5 (Eastern Time) What tier do you want to learn?: Primarily OU, maybe some Ubers (I'd like to eventually aim for VGC '10-style matches) Tell us a little about yourself: /begin pointless blathering: Um... Well, I'm...
  5. Pokemon VGC 2010 DATES / rules announced for the US!

    The Spanish Inquisition. It seems like it's a war of Rain vs. Rain Counters vs. Rain Counter Counters vs. Other Weather Teams... Trick Room will probably still be in use what with Dialga lurking around.
  6. Pokemon VGC 2010 DATES / rules announced for the US!

    I know there are better choices for leads, but I think Giratina-O could be amusing. Shadow Force seems a great toy for screwing with your opponent's Protects, and EQ and Explosion immunity looks great. Other than just better options, is there a reason it's been overlooked? (apologies for...
  7. Pokemon VGC 2010 DATES / rules announced for the US!

    Really? I've grown up among believers of Pokemon being only for ages 4-10. MAYBE eleven. XP And the Senior division tends to be far more composed of adults than children to my experiences... Yeah, there's a few, of course. But not really a significant enough margin to make the tourneys any...
  8. Pokemon VGC 2010 DATES / rules announced for the US!

    I've had similar experiences. When I went to a Qualifier in '08, a Senior battle was being broadcast on a screen. One player had a Garchomp, the other had Zapdos. So I'm thinking, okay, this could be good. And then the Garchomp uses GIGA IMPACT. Then, without rain to boot, the other player...
  9. Smeargle's Studio General Thread: Spriting and Banners go here!

    Bumping my request. I don't care how long it takes to make it or how horrible it is; it can't be worse than mine. ...I can't draw. Dx
  10. Pokemon VGC 2010 DATES / rules announced for the US!

    Well, despite already knowing the rules for months, it's awesome to have a confirmation nonetheless! Now we have to get PCI to reveal the locations. wort wort wort
  11. Lots of Nintendo Game Announcements and News

    Yeah, I was shooting myself for being a Pokenerd and buying Platinum just because it said "Pokemon" on the cover in big yellow letters, like a very stupid moth to a flame. HG/SS has everything Platinum has except the Sinnoh region, which we already got in D/P. What? What is this "Distortion...
  12. Favorite Zelda Game?

    Majora's Mask, for, what else? the dark, epic tone. Though OoT is a close second, and I actually do like Twilight Princess as well.
  13. Looking for an interesting few songs for a Halo 3 Montage

    You could try trailer music from X-Ray Dog, Immediate Music... stuff like that. Here's an example of samples of trailer music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SSRKsf0CQo Don't worry, there are tracks without chorus too, just that video seems to have a lot of choral tracks. But whatever you do...
  14. How did you create your username?

    Pronunciation: RAHN-dum-ih-nay-tor. Not Rahn-DOM-ih-nay-tor. Get it right pl0x D: If I dominate anything greater than a crumb of a gelatinous laser I'll be surprised. ...Gelatinous lasers are fail, just so you know. They don't make that awesome sound that lasers are supposed to make. Um, yeah...
  15. Pokemon VGC 2010 DATES / rules announced for the US!

    Yeah, true, Azelf's much too predictable. I've still seen a little bit of usage though, but that'll probably change, especially with more frequent Auto-weather than weather-inducing moves. Or maybe I just haven't seen enough. :/ What's everyone's opinion on Machamp?
  16. Pokemon VGC 2010 DATES / rules announced for the US!

    Goodstuffs is pretty much just generally good VGC Pokemon, like Weavile, Garchomp, Zapdos, Metagross, or Dusknoir, to name a few.
  17. How often do you use profanity on a daily basis?

    I don't really swear often, save for quoting or to convey the personality of some characters in my writing, but I don't have a problem with those who do. Like many others have said, they're just words. However, many people take it as impolite or vulgar, so I refrain from using them.
  18. Smeargle's Studio General Thread: Spriting and Banners go here!

    Here's a (possibly?) challenging avatar request if anyone wants to take it up: a dark-toned (as in not sprightly and perky, but more sinister-ish) Grovyle avy with a Time Gear (Google it if you aren't familiar with PMD2/3) somewhere present in it. My name is not needed. I would greatly...
  19. What do you miss most from the Gen. I era?

    Pretty much what the title says. For example, only having 151 Pokemon, the cooler sprites, the originality of the game mechanics, having only one Special, the faster-paced battles, everyone being into Pokemon... whatever. :) (I looked and couldn't find a thread like this, so...)
  20. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer - mark 22 (READ THE OP)

    Using VGC 2010 rules, to have an optimal EV spread should I distribute numbers divisible by 4 or by 8?
