Oh. I see.

How can the game tell...? It never could before, so long as you did everything correctly. I'm talking Pokemon here that can be bred, not legends.

So perfect IVs are illegal? How about if I make one 30 and have the rest perfect 31s?

What's the preferred battle sim this gen and where can I get it?

Thanks guys. How dumb... Explosion should've been left alone, because in some cases it's the only reliable way to take out some of the ridiculously overpowered Pokemon they added this gen.

I heard explosion got nerfed in B/W. Is that true, and if so, how?

I guess this is where I would ask this... Is there a PokeSav or a similar Pokemon-making program that works for North American copies of Black/White?

No.

I could see a lot of broken Custap Berry abuse happening on PBR once it's released.

Well you got half of that right.

Well, just a tip, since there are 7 deadly sins and you can only pick 6, you might want to just leave Envy out since it's the most difficult one to relate to a Pokemon.

If I played OU, I would use this to revenge kill Wobba. Sure, they are guaranteed one kill with their Wobba, but Wobba is also guaranteed to die from Dug so it balances out. Not only that, but Dugtrio can also continue to do damage after Wobba dies since it will have a sub up. :O Good thinking...

Even though I'm an avid UU player, I have to agree that this sort of thing is retarded. If you suck, it doesn't make a difference if your Pokemon choices are unconventional or not. Not to be braggadocios, but I feel that I'm studied and skilled enough to be using lower tier Pokes like I do, but...

Not everyone enjoys playing the game for the same reasons that you do. I personally find using less commonly used Pokemon (many of which happen to ones that I like, aesthetically) substantially more fun than using OU ones. If you just want to play "Pokemon chess" where the Pokemon are "chess...

Yeah, Smogon is a community that basically only supports standard play. The great thing that I love about this site, though, is that the movesets on the main page are all very well thought out, and reading/studying them has played a huge role in my becoming good at the game. So while I find the...

There is a notable difference between the stats of Kingdra and say, Garchomp. It's not only the typing that makes Dragons a little broken, but the massive stat totals that usually come with it. People are already debating Garchomp's status as a valid OU Pokemon, but without a 4x weakness it...

Once the traits get implemented, it will probably see a spike in usage, so don't fret. I imagine that Bibarel is probably quite a contender in UU, and a lot more things are playable in OU than many standard-heads would dare to try. This Bibarel seems like it'd take a great amount of skill to...

Nice battle. But there was nothing unusual about the Pokemon you used like the topic title lead me to believe. Maybe the combination of those particular 6, but they are all still pretty standard and safe.

FTR I agree with all of those. 121 speed (?) with that movepool and those attacking stats plus the ability to double them both (Swords Dance is fine but Tail Glow? Come on...) rounded off by a trait that practically makes an inconvenient 4x weakness into an immunity? No Pokemon is designed THAT...

Well, it's a mixed bag really. Technically, a Pokesav'd Poke (even one with a perfectly legal moveset, IVs, EVs, etc) is not a legit Poke because it was still hacked. But there is nothing "wrong" with doing it.
