Accuracy drops are handled like in-game, as seen here.

SimonSays · May 22nd, 2012, 1:50:43 AM

Link and Link for information on Counter. tl:dr, it's always the last hit. It's not able to be aimed, and it won't hit an ally.

The Wanderer · May 23rd, 2012, 9:07:15 PM

Okay, I'm a little confused on a combo. One of the players in a battle I'm reffing is using Seismic Toss + Pursuit to negate a bounce. How should I calculate the damage on that? Should it be the variable damage from pursuit plus the fixed damage from seismic toss? Or is it just fixed damage altogether?

LouisCyphre · May 23rd, 2012, 9:20:13 PM

Calc Pursuit, then add ten fixed damage.

TheWolfe · May 26th, 2012, 1:04:35 AM

If a Pokemon ordered to attack first uses U-Turn and brings in a new Pokemon, does the new Pokemon coming in also have to order commands first? Thanks.

Example

LouisCyphre · May 26th, 2012, 1:24:40 AM

Yes.

Thus, proper strategic use of switching moves is to use them when ordering second, since you're ordering first next round anyway. This denies the opponent a chance to counterswitch, in addition to a couple of other advantages.

SimonSays · May 26th, 2012, 1:30:04 AM

Or, to constantly force your opponent not to be able to use moves with Subs. Example:

Filler *3
IF Foe uses Taunt, use Magic Coat

And you have no fear of being Taunted for 3a. Not really applicable in your example, but still, Enjoy. =]

TheWolfe · May 26th, 2012, 1:47:48 AM

Thanks you two. I suspected that was the case.

How do I connect to #capasb?

Objection · May 27th, 2012, 3:21:21 PM

Go here
Select the SynIRC server
Enter your desired IRC username into the nick box. This can be the same as your Smogon name but doesn't have to be.
Hit connect.
If Mibbit asks you for a password, type /msg NickServ identify <password>, where <password> is the password you used to register your name, and then type /join #capasb.
If Mibbit does not ask you for a password, then the nick you are using is not registered.
- To register your nick, type /msg NickServ register <password> <email> where <password> is your desired password and <email> is your email address.
- Doing this should cause you to receive an email with a special passcode in it. Type /msg NickServ confirm <passcode> where <passcode> is that passcode you received. Your nick should now be registered to you.
- Then proceed to step 5.

dinosaurdan · May 29th, 2012, 3:28:18 PM

can you change the nature of a pokemon upon evolution?

rickheg · May 29th, 2012, 3:29:44 PM

You can change it whenever you like. However, it isn't free. It costs 7 CC to change a pokemon's nature, and you need to post that you're doing it in the Prize Claim Thread.

If you're looking for battles, try searching in the Battle Tower (sticky when you're in the asb forum, easy to access once you see it!)

Ragnarokalex · May 30th, 2012, 2:37:41 AM

would a Pursuit+Dynamic Punch combo hit a digging opponent that was staying under? or does the priority mess it up?

Pursuit ordinarily has zero priority and an accuracy check, but it will always strike before an opponent uses an evasive action.

So technically, yes, iirc.

Gerard · May 30th, 2012, 12:13:16 PM

If the Pokemon was under already, No. If he was still digging, Yes

Orcinus Duo · May 30th, 2012, 8:13:26 PM

Does switching remove curse? Does lum berry heal curse?

Leethoof · May 30th, 2012, 8:29:12 PM

Switch: Yes. Lum: no.

Can dodge evade attacks that strike the whole field such as earthquake?

No, think of it as an inferior evasive Agility/Teleport.

It says nothing about multi-target attacks, so yes, Dodge can evade Earthquake and the like.

EspyOwner · May 31st, 2012, 8:29:25 PM

I stand corrected, then.

Classical · Jun 4th, 2012, 11:34:10 PM

Okay, just wondering if I was to use simple beam on pokemon who used shell smash would they gain double the same as if in game? Because permanent +4 +4 +4 would be broken.
