  1. Hippowdon

    Actually, since I don't think Hippowdon can learn Stealth Rock in Gen5, Roar would still be preferred since I think Stealth Rock + Whirlwind would be incompatible.
  2. B&W Research Thread

    I'm pretty sure I heard that was for attacks like Fire Spin, Wrap, Sand Tomb, etc...
  3. Shell Break

    I believe it's been tested at the very least to prove that it is + Atk, Spatk, and Speed and -Def and Spdef. I don't think it's been tested yet if they're all sharp boosts yet though.
  4. B&W Research Thread

    Aww, that sucks. I was hoping for a nice new powerful Dark move. Still have to make do with Crunch as our most powerful move aside from this less than reliable move. In fact, I think Dark has the lowest highest attack power move of all types...
  5. B&W Research Thread

    Trickery (attack)- 1) What is the exact effect? Serebii list it as getting stronger the higher the opponent's Attack is. I've also heard that it uses the opponent's attack instead of yours. Basically just want some clarification. 2) If it does get stronger the higher your opponent's attack...
  6. Dream World

    Pretty sure the Dream World isn't up and running yet, so no one really knows much about this yet.

    I think you may be confusing the move Shell Break (+2 Atk, SpAtk, and Spe, -2 Def and SpDef) for the ability Breakable Armor (+1 Spe, -1 Def).
  8. Venusaur

    Not true. With other DW ability pokemon and new pokemon, these Pokemon are faster Chlorophyllers than Venusaur: Jumpluff (spd 110) Leafeon (spd 95) Hahakurimo (spd 92) Erufuun (spd 116) Doreida (spd 90) Mebukijka (spd 95)
  9. Darmanitan

    Didn't think of that, I forgot when posting that how abysmally low Hihi's SPA was. I was just thinking of Encourage abuse, which is unfortunately sounding like it won't work anyway.
  10. Darmanitan

    Actually, if Encourage does stop the negative effects (and I agree with Scicky that the number of backlash moves Hihi learns seems to say something), Focus Punch would be even better than Superpower I guess. Maybe Flare Blitz/Overheat/Focus Punch/Giga Impact.
  11. Darmanitan

    I don't believe so. If it has the Daruma Mode ability it has to, but I think if it has Encourage it just stays normal red Hihidaruma.
  12. Darmanitan

    I'm interested in the possibility of Encourage Hihidaruma if Encourage really does negate negative effects. Something like Choice Scarf with Flare Blitz/Superpower/Overheat and something else depending on what he learns seems like it could be really powerful.

    Any news on if Encourage prevents negative effects yet? Hihidaruma's moveset containing several moves with them seems to possibly lend it credibility.
  14. What kind of research do you want to see done first?

    This sounds good.

    Cut's still around. EDIT: Ninja'd twice.
  16. Pokemon Black and White (SPECULATIONS ALLOWED HERE)

    Me. At least, I think it's a real possibility. Like in that interview, we have the illustrators saying both that they wanted a completely different appearance and that they wanted to blend a sea otter and sea lion. Sounds like the pic of supposed Miju3. As far as the katana goes, it's...
  17. Pokemon Black and White (SPECULATIONS ALLOWED HERE)

    Well yeah, most was hyperbole, but a lot of the really big name titles get simultaneous releases and Pokemon is a big name. And yeah, the text heaviness and localization would be an issue, but it still doesn't seem to justify the huge waits. I mean, HG/SS took half a year, and all the...

    I hope so too. I still don't get what takes the games several months to be released here when most games get near simultaneous releases nowadays and it's a flagship title of one of the biggest gaming companies in the world.
  19. Pokemon Black and White (SPECULATIONS ALLOWED HERE)

    Well, there's also original Charmander.
  20. Pokemon Black and White (SPECULATIONS ALLOWED HERE)

    Well, it's a big name DS game, so probably $39.99. Obviously if you're planning to import it it'll probably be more.
