I think it's fine to keep your Dusclops since the map names are different.

I'm making a hack of Emerald that I plan to Nuzlocke as soon as I finish both that and my Platinum run.

Bump. Also, Colbur Azelf has been rejected. It's just not viable outside the lead position, and that's Gallade's prime setup spot. Azelf may be good, but he can't devastate a team like boosted Gallade. Also, I need to get extremely lucky to kill Zapdos. Any suggestions there?

Yay another GR reader!

IMO, Gliscor actually fits pretty well on this team. However, if you really want to replace him, then Dragonite, Celebi, or Gyarados would all be good options due to the fighting and ground resistances/immunities. 2 electric weaknesses (with Vaporeon and Gyarados) isn't so much of a problem...

Mini-update on my recently rediscovered Platinum run: Trained up Legion the Porygon, evolving to Porygon2 at lv. 35 and PorygonZ at 45. His Adaptability Hyper Beam OHKO'd a Magneton 2 levels higher than him... Garchomp last resort, here I come? Also, I want to slap some Specs on him and Hyper...

I have changed Kingdra to Scarf Flygon and Starmie to LO Starmie. I'm testing out Colbur Azelf, but I'm pretty skeptical... I'm considering trying Heatran over Jirachi or Shaymin (he could use Stealth Rock if you think it helps me get some key 1-2HKOs) to absorb Will-o-Wisps aimed at Machamp and...

Thanks, I'll test those two tonight.

Just wanted to bump this. http://www.smogon.com/forums/group.php?do=discuss&discussionid=1419&pp=10

At a glance, you want to run a Careful nature on Dusknoir (if you keep him), as it doesn't detract from his Attack. Sorry for the shortness, I'll come back later with an attempt at a full rate.

The reason you haven't won any speed ties with opposing aero is that they almost all run jolly.

BUMP! (lol thanks haunter)

Just a nitpick, but you might want to consider Ice Beam (or Blizzard considering you have an Abomasnow) or possibly over Pyschic on Starmie, because coverage is what makes Starmie so deadly and Psychic isn't that good of an attacking type. However, it is a pseudo-hail team so you have plenty of...

I would suggest using Fire Blast over Overheat on your Infernape because HP Ice isn't going to be hitting very hard at -2 Special Attack. Since your Flygon has ThunderPunch, you might consider replacing that on either Flygon or Infernape. Also, Bulky Gyarados sweeps just as well as non-bulky IMO...

My old team really wasn't working for me anymore, so I decided to make a new one. I like this one much more, though one roster spot hasn't been finalized and I'm still trying to find something that works there. I wanted to build a team with Gallade and Shaymin, so those two were automatically...

I'm about to finish my Platinum file, but I haven't done anything of note lately. Also, whatever happened to Res Ipsa Loquitur? Edit: Napstar, it's up to you, but I think it's fine as it isn't an item.

Short Platinum update: I'm on my way to challenge Volkner, and Leviathan finally got Dragon Dance :D Unfortunately, I will probably not have Internet for 10 days or so, so I'll update on whether I win or lose, and on who dies when I get back. If I lose to the E4 twice, then I'll just try to solo...

I would love to use Rapid Spin on Starmie, but it replaces Ice Beam. I don't have anything else that can really hit a grass-type other than U-Turn and Bounce. I hate Bounce and would love to replace it, but I hate Stone Edge even more. U-Turn doesn't really cut it as an attack solely to do...

This is my second RMT, so I have a much better understanding of what to do in for RMT's. That being said, the team-building process revolved around Starmie and Gengar, but neither one is really the star of the team. Metagross @ Lum Berry Adamant, Clear Body 248 HP/228 Atk/34 SpD -Stealth...

Update on my Platinum challenge I'm in Mt. Coronet about to go to the Distortion World right now. I had no problems whatsoever with Byron or Candice because my team is really strong against Dark/Steel/Rock/Ice. I have way too many Fighting moves XD. The team: Kaidan (Infernape) lv. 42 @ Fist...
