    Where can I go to seek help on building a concept/gimmick team for competitive use? Also, in relation to that goal: What are some good Pokemon that can utilize Thief? Any sort of moveset accompanying the suggestion is appreciated! Thank you!! By the way, I'll probably be naming the Pokemon...

  3. Kara Inspired Team (Need Some Help)

    I have only had a bit of experience testing this team out thus far, but I'm unfortunately not finding much success. My idea to make this team work isn't quite going the way I had hoped.
  4. Kara Inspired Team (Need Some Help)

    Hello, After reading the required material posted on here, I regret to say that this team is a bit of a work in progress (I'm sorry!!). However, I am keeping with a theme, therefore I'm more or less looking for advice on making this team work together cohesively. As I noted in the title...
  5. Please Delete This Thread!

    This thread was originally an RMT for Gen IV, but I've since decided to upgrade my team for Gen V. Thus, I no longer need this thread opened. Unfortunately, I can't delete my own threads apparently. So, can someone please do so for me or just let this die.

    What is more effective: Drapion using Night Slash w/ Sniper, or simply using Crunch instead?

    Oh okay, thank you! I actually had that issue for a bit with my Teddiursa in Platinum. It had maxed IVs for Attack and Defense, but one of them wasn't showing when I went to the judge. When it finally did, I went back a few times, because it completely caught me off guard. Thought I accidentally...

    I know this is related to Gen IV, but the other boards are pretty dead. So, I hope it's not a problem. It's actually a follow-up to a suggested answer I received a few days ago. On Bulbapedia's Stats judge pag,e it writes: In Sinnoh, he selects which highest stat he'll report randomly. In...

    Hello, I've been reading the Breeding Guides on the site and have found myself perplexed at the results from two of my Pokemon. Both my Teddiursa and Buneary seem to fit the ideal conditions to have superior IVs in Attack and Speed respectively. For example, my Buneary's description read...

    Is there anyone out there that wouldn't mind giving me a suitable option for a UU team composed of Blastoise, Octillery, Lopunny, Ursaring, and Rhyperior? At the moment I have Drapion as a lead option, but I'm not sure. If perchance you find this interesting at all, please PM me as I really do...

    Oops, sorry! Thank you. : ) Though, it's weird that I didn't see that with my Buneary. It has a Jolly nature, with the Speed being identical to that one listed.

    I've been reading through the Breeding Guide here on mogon, particular Part II: http://www.smogon.com/ingame/guides/breeding_guide_part2 I noticed that for Teddiursa, it's Atk would be 14 at Lv. 5 if it had 31 IVs in that stat (and 11 for defense), my question regards the possibility of that...

    Hello there, I hope this isn't weird, but I understand you specialize in teamrating. I was wondering if you'd help me out with a team I'm trying to utilize for competitive UU battles. The movesets are still a bit of a work in progress for some of the Pokemon, but I think it's coming together...

    How about a Liechi or Petaya Berry, are those available? I'm building this team for UU purposes, so I'm hooping the strategy holds up there. The full team consists of: Drapion, Lopunny, Octilery, Ursaring, Blastoise, and Rhyperior. I really like the individual Pokemon that make up this team, so...

    Hello, I have a question about the affects of Healing Wish on an Ursaring holding Toxic Orb. the idea is to use my Lopunny to support my Ursaring by means of Substitute and Baton Passing - potentially through Agility or using Substitute repeatedly to activate a Salac Berry before doing so. Then...

However, my real concern is the...

    Are there any ideas that can be given to have a successful Mismagius, Ursaring, Ludicolo, Roserade team? (additional Pokemon is subjective...or Lucario) I wish to try and make use of Ludicolo's Swift Swim if possible. Hopefully this isn't asking too much.

    When catching a Pokemon like Slowpoke, is there any reduction on the Pokemon's stats if I choose to evolve into a Slowking at say... lv. 50 ? I assume the answer will also apply to catching a Pokemon like Teddiursa at lv 46, evolving right after and going from there. Thanks in advance ^_^...
