    Battle Maison Discussion & Records

    This is why I think Sharpedo is most successful in Doubles (and also Triples I would imagine). Even if its Focus Sash is broken by things like weather, Rough Skin, burn, Toxic, weak spread attacks, etc, Sharpedo is still great at generating free turns and taking down an opponent with Speed...

    Black & White Battle Subway Records (now with gen. 4 records!)

    I used Parasect in a similar role (on a Drizzle team partnered with Shell Smash Omastar), but I used a more defensive EV spread: Careful Nature with 252 HP / 160 Def / 96 SpD. I also used Leftovers instead of Focus Sash. I found this set worked really well, and I think the more defensive EVs...

    Thanks jumpluff! I think I've implemented all your changes. I also sent a message to TRE about putting his data on Smogon, so I'll let you know what I hear back from him. But other than that, I think it's ready to be HTML'ed!

    Black & White Battle Subway Records (now with gen. 4 records!)

    This is unfortunately not the case - 2 players cannot enter the same Pokemon. I had high hopes of trying a double Storm Drain Gastrodon team in multi... And the idea of Choice Scarf Heatran is interesting, though I'm not so sure about Explosion (and thus, the attack EVs). I believe even if I...

    Black & White Battle Subway Records (now with gen. 4 records!)

    Thanks! Hmm I hadn't considered Heatran since I've gone so long without access to a good one, though now I do in White 2. He might be able to at least somewhat deal with things like Jolteon/Raikou since he has nice special bulk, but you're right in that he's not a sure-fire way to handle them...

    Battle Subway Super Doubles Streak: 171 This is a gravity based doubles team that aims to quickly KO enemies using powerful attacks that are normally not viable in the Subway due to their unreliable accuracy. Alakazam - Wilton (M) Focus sash Inner Focus Timid Nature 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252...

    Battle Subway Article (GP 2/2)

    Pokemon are set to level 50 in the Subway rather than 100. Therefore, an IV of 31 yields 15.5 stat points instead of 31, and 252 EVs yields 31.5 stat points instead of 63. Since everything is floored in Pokemon having an IV of 31 will actually only give 15 stat points at level 50. By putting an...

    The Battle Subway article that Cradily and I wrote (http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3460746) is nearing completion. We'd really appreciate any feedback from Subway enthusiasts. Specifically, we're looking for comments on these areas: I have since come up with a guess that the...

    Haha this is what I get for just mashing the A button at the end of every subway battle... missing an option and naming another one incorrectly. Fixed it, thanks for pointing this out!

    Good catch on the record option and TR specialists, atsync. I also added a sentence about the Vs. Recorder since questions about how to view your subway streak pop up in the subway records thread every so often (and I had to look this up the first time too!). Also, 100% agree with you on...

    Cradily and I finally got back to working on this and we're done with our first draft so we're ready for input. In addition to general comments, we have a couple of specific things: - What's the deal with the IVs and EVs of the CPUs' Pokemon? I vaguely remember something about their IVs being...

    Got some time to start working on this again. Thanks for the great points on AI tendancies R Inanimate and atsync, added them to the main post. There was one that I wasn't completely sure on though: I was under the impression that the CPU targeted whichever Pokemon they could do the most...
