That's interesting - I do think that they're pretty easy on normal mode, for the most part, but a lot of people actually find them too hard to be playable (which is rather sad, as it's tied for my favorite video game series ever along with Pokémon). I'm also curious about which ones you played...

Definitely agree with this, though admittedly the only old-school FE I've played is 4. It seems like a lot of the fans think FE4 had some of the best storytelling in any video game ever, which just boggles my mind as I didn't find it particularly remarkable or even interesting at all. The lack...

Wait, what? It has? Since when? I don't really doubt that Nintendo will localize it eventually, but I don't think it's been confirmed yet - I could be wrong, though. It is for the DS. Nice to see a Lunatic Mode run with some english audio commentary. I think I'll be watching this. :) (Also...

I'm horrible at action poses (and poses in general), but I made something anyway!: (or just ) Hmm, making an "actiony" picture small enough for it to be usable on the forums is pretty hard to do well, too. (Disregard this if what you wanted was a Kojondo in the exact same pose as the Breloom...

You lose the Balloon whenever you're hit by a direct attack, so yes. He's using Choice Band Techniloom (my favorite set! If only it hadn't been for those Shanderas...). Are you serious. (Please, stop complaining about people playing DW. It's dumb) Now, as for the warstory itself: as almost...

Garchomp is still a monster and one of the most commonly used pokémon, so no, not really. Sandstorm being everywhere is also nice for Chomp. Power creep makes it a bit more balanced in comparison to other new 'mons, though. ... and the Base 108 Speed fighting trio + Kerudio troll all of them?

The differences aren't huge, but there are some notable things such as the typing (Dark over Steel can be nice if you have a Psychic-type weakness or simply don't want an extra Fire-weakness on your team) and certain moves (Knock Off, Payback, Mean Look). As you've mentioned, the more balanced...

... yes, they do get Vacuum Wave, but how many of them commonly use it? Let's check the statistics (I like statistics): Mew: appears on 1,39% of all teams and carries Vacuum Wave around 2,5% of the time. Not something to worry about. (Wow, Mew is surprisingly unpopular.) Blaziken: Vacuum Wave...

... this is pretty similar to using Heatproof on Bronzong over Levitate because noone expects it, isn't it? Your opponent will probably figure out that you're using Sand Power pretty quickly due to how much damage you'll be doing, though. (I can't really say much more than that, since I haven't...

No, most Technilooms actually have Swords Dance over Substitute. Stone Edge isn't the most common move, but it's not incredibly rare, either. Assuming that Shandera has no defensive EVs, Stone Edge will always OHKO it, even if the Breloom has no boosts and SR isn't up. You're generally wrong...

It's definitely usable, but there are probably better options out there. The main problem with Howl is that you'll usually lose out on important type coverage - one would probably want to use Howl on a bulkier set with Intimidate, as that would make setting up easier, but since you're going for...

Signal Beam is illegal with Lightningrod, since it's a Gen IV tutor move. Why does hitting Celebi and Scizor matter at all...? Both are fairly rare in Gen V (Celebi especially - I think I've only seen a single one this gen, actually). And I suppose that STAB Hidden Power is better than nothing...

... read this page again? There are people discussing a PHazing set only two posts above yours, you know. :) Speaking of which... Personally, I would invest those speed EVs in one of it's defenses. I know you mentioned its "moderately high speed", but I don't really agree with running 252 Spd...

Actually, according to the usage statistics, only 20.49% of all non-lead Nattorei run Shed Shell (but on the other hand, most lead variants do run Shed Shell). Shadow Tag Shandera is hard - if not impossible - to play around, which is a bit annoying when you'd like to use a Shandera-weak...

"His" should be "her". (Really minor, so feel free to ignore this; it's just something I noticed.) Thank god. I was starting to get really tired of that. :) How about this one? I don't really see the point in rating warstories, so I'll just say what I thought: I really enjoyed this warstory...

... why would you ever want to use Outrage over Ice Beam on Swampert?

"You don't have a sleeping pokémon" is what it says. Also, WeGee seems to be having the same problem. Maybe it's just some kind of bug?

Stealth Rock Aerodactyl? Looks like we won't have to worry about old leads not getting SR with their new abilities. "Hello, From 26/10, when I DS-sync, the pokémon accompanying me do not get transferred. There are currently three pokémon accompanying me, so transfer is impossible. Please solve...

Actually, I haven't seen that many ScarfTars on the DW tier on PO, but ScarfTar won't OHKO even Espeon, even when Reflect isn't up. As for the 4-moveslot syndrome thing, what I posted was in response to what Banryu said about Choice Band Tyranitar eating the Calm Mind/Baton Pass/Reflect/Wish set...

Huh? CB Tyranitar Crunch vs Espeon, 252 HP / 252 Def, +Def Nature, Reflect up: 65.3% - 77.2% Also, Espeon has Baton Pass - why would it stay in on Tyranitar anyway? It can escape Pursuit easily.
