    Gen 6 np: XY Ubers Gengarite Suspect Test - In The Shadows [READ POST #71]

    My point was more along the lines of people using shitty metaphors rather than the actual usage of metaphors itself. I agree with what you're trying to say, but you totally missed my point.

    Gen 6 np: XY Ubers Gengarite Suspect Test - In The Shadows [READ POST #71]

    Can we stop using immaterial metaphors to try to explain ourselves? This is like the fifth time this thread I've seen someone focus more so on the misuse of the metaphor rather than the point it's trying to make regardless of how well it exemplifies the argument. We're not all literature majors...

    Official XY Ubers Gengarite Suspect Voting

    Gengarite: Do Not Ban Reasoning: This is my first time participating in an Ubers suspect test, but I have been battling since 4th Gen and have a good feel for battling in general. I read through most of the early portions of the thread to get a good idea of both sides of the argument, and I've...

    Gen 6 Ubers Gengarite Suspect Alt Confirmation Thread

    Golden Goddesses (OU Volt-Turn 2000+)

    Thanks for the suggestions. I will try using Recover over Psychic and see if it helps. Usually Leftovers gives me enough recovery over time. I'll try it out and let you guys know. Same goes for Chesto Rest Rotom-W - I feel like this is the more commonly seen set on ladder since the Hidden Power...

    Golden Goddesses (OU Volt-Turn 2000+)

    GOLDEN GODDESSES Introduction Hey Smogon! A little bit about myself first :) I've been battling competitively (mostly OU) since 4th gen and been a long time lurker on the forums. I learned prediction/team-building/decision making by watching battling greats like Eternal, Ojama, Kevin...

    Bug Reports v2.0 (READ OP BEFORE POSTING!!)

    Hello PS devs and Smogon. I'm unsure of this mechanic, but my opponent's Starmie died to my Ferrothorn's Iron Barbs by using Rapid Spin (in hopes of clearing entry hazards for his Aron to come in) but since he got KO'd by Iron Barbs damage the hazards did not clear. Are the hazards supposed to...

    Bug Reports v2.0 (READ OP BEFORE POSTING!!)

    Please check Quick Claw procs (I was just in a battle vs. Mrs.Barack Obama) and his quick claw Pokemon (3-4 of them) activated quick claw 80-90% of the time when it should be 20%. Not sure if it's a bug or just my bad luck. There was also one instance where it said "quick claw activated" and my...

    Technical Support

    Is there any way to recover a password? I set it to something that I know for sure I typed correctly, logged in, played over two days normally. Then suddenly, it prompted me to provide password, but it always shows that my password is incorrect when I never changed it. Someone help?

    Just a grammar thing: If something is the "single biggest threat to your team", it can't be TWO Pokemon.

    My First (usable) Team (Baton Pass)

    Anything with roar, dragon tail, or whirlwind will stop your baton pass chain cold. Two things stop this on a baton passing team: Mr. Mime's soundproof and Smeargle's ingrain. (which coincidentally fills your last move slot) I know you already kind of addressed it in your post, but phazing moves...
