Well, I keep having trouble in the Battle Fagtory due to A: shitty Pokemon and B: Ridiculous luck. I can't even break 21, for God's sake. It's ridiculous.
anyway, I should probably be breeding and EV training my BT team, but I'll get onto that later.

Since I'm about to get that essentially flawless RNGed Registeel to use in the Tower... I noticed Peterko, the current champion, decided to make his Steel's defensive stats equal. My question is:
Is it definitely more beneficial to have balanced defenses that being more specialized in one of the stats? I was doing some damage calculations of things such as Lucario's Muscle Band Close Combat vs Registeel... with maximum Defense, I was impressed at how easily he survives the move... so that's why I'm not certain about having lower Defense for move Sp. Def... after all, moves like Overheat are problematic with critical hits.

Current Battle castle streak : 70 wins
Salamence @ Choice band Jolly 252 att/252 spe/6 hp ~Outrage ~Earthquake ~Fire Fang ~AA Skarmory @ Leftovers Impish (Peterko's spread) ~Brave Bird ~Toxic ~Roost ~Substitute Cresselia @ Leftovers Calm 252 hp/252 sp.def/6 def(Im not sure,will cheak) ~Rest ~Sleep talk ~Ice beam ~Psychic There are ample threats to this team but with a fluctuation of 550 CP-750 CP I have plenty to minus level's and I always display pokemon.So I can skip battles with way to many threats in that Team. I plan to pass 100 and only then I will be satisfied.Any way I can improve? Oh and I abuse all the lists like crazy in every battle.I have a printed version.And of course thanks bozo your team format works like a dream!

Must...drag...self..away...from...computer...Ah, screw it, it's the weekend now, I can EV train all night!
Also, Fake Out Weavile rules. It's pretty much a free set in the Fagtory if you don't encounter too many Steels. And that's why you have Leech Seed Tangrowth! :3

108 Atk vs 150 Def & 187 HP (100 Base Power): 28 - 33 (14.97% - 17.65%) that's a -2 jolly rampardos EQ on an optimally EVed Bold Latias. if rampardos tries to get cute and "kick reason to the curb", you can kick back and not give two shits about its EQ (while remembering that the only rampardos that has EQ in the first place is the scarf one). it does under 70% even with a CH, so even the worst case turn 1-2 scenario of getting CHed twice would mean that the -4 Atk rampardos would need like max damage to even break a 207HP/130Def Tyranitar's Sub (it does 44-52 HP damage and the sub is 51 HP). you should be able to get rampardos to -6 virtually every time because it does indeed need two CHes on its first three EQs to kill latias. head smash does more to all pokes but even then, after one charm it does ~35% to latias and allows you to get it to -6 there too, the switch tyranitar or infernape in on the first struggle (i'd prefer ape here as you pointed out yourself) lol the more i think about it, latias and tyranitar are fucking made for each other in the tower, tyra's already uber enough with the SpD boost and then only needs a few charms to be able to make pokemon like rampardos look like jynx even with SE moves. if only latias could lend tyra her sucker punch (seriously what the hell gamefreak, the movie had both latias and latios "ambushing" ash & co. [ambush is the real translation of the attack] so it doesnt make sense that latios wouldn't get it too =/) tldr charm rules use this move

alright jump i guess you've sold me, it's still less than ideal though since i'm battling on the relic that is the DP Battle Tower... meaning your "Jolly" rampardos may very well be adamant.
there's also the stupid staraptor that I love to face, the dragon moves that I have no resist for and with Latias leading, no reason for the AI to use any other move except a dragon move, and heracross sodomizing my team. i can charm all forms of hera down to -6 since the only two with megahorn have berries... but i'm still not pleased by the fact that i can't lock it into a move. which is lame because all forms of heracross have a move that hits both infernape and tyranitar SE (Focus Punch/SE from 1, CC/AA from 2, Megahorn from 3, and everything from 4 that isn't Endure). Even at -6, Close Combat from 2 will break Tyranitar's sub more than half the time (31% chance not to break it). megahorn from 3 has to run min damage not to break my sub, and 4 is a combo of the two. Moving to infernape things look better though... let's see, since 1 has no attack EVs, it can only muster 11-13% with SE, barring no crit I can fuck his shit up. 2 has aerial ace which doesn't break my sub at -6, or even at -4. 3 has stone edge like 1 but with 252 attack EVs but still can't beat 16%... and 4, the salac reversaler, even at -6 with a +attack nature blasts infernape for 28-33% with earthquake. Breaking the Sub every time. So what do we do in this situation? Obviously the safest and most logical choice is to max charm heracross down and swap to infernape and set up as best as possible... number 4 is a bit of a problem. flamethrower does OHKO adamant heracross without any HP/SP DEF. so in that case, is it best to nasty plot, and risk a crit? you can't finish against heracross 4 with a sub up unless i'm missing an unusual sequence of events. you should be able to finish with enough HP left to make a sub, assuming you're faster than the next poke and it doesn't attack you outright, infernape is in the clear. but... if it does, and it probably will since you're at 56-66%, you better hope that you can KO with vaccum wave or that it doesn't have quick claw or that it doesn't simply outspeed you. and unless i'm very unlucky, i'll be just outside the blaze range too (max-max damage on EQ) :( and that leaves you with a completely vulnernable tyranitar to fend off the remaining team. summary: heracross is a bitch.

the idea is to charm heracross twice and then send infernape into megahorn, then back to latias into "eq or se or fp" and then trick, knowing infernape's job will be a lot easier with heracross at -4 and locked into MH. this does 8% on avg to infernape...even a CH MH barely does over 50% which rules. my days with lopunny/latios/lucario made me originally come up with this strat btw

ahh... well i spent some time editing that message when you popped on and solved the problem, so there ya go.
but what do you do against metagross who is immune to charm? you can trick it into an attack, for 1/3/4 it's likely going to be meteor mash, which can't 2HKO with a boost or crit. so you should be able to paralyze it as well, and then what? flash as much as possible before death and hope that infernape wins? because nape takes the same percentage as latias against a MM... 41-49%. Sure, you'll KO 88% of the time with flamethrower, but no sub and no boosts unless you get a lucky miss because flash paid off. |

no llewellyn you're right actually!
latias v metagross turn one: trick metagross MM does 41-49%. turn two: pray for no crit/attack boost on turn 1, and no crit on turn 2; hit metagross with a thunder wave turn three: die with latias, swap in infernape unscathed infernape vs metagross (locked into MM and paralyzed) turn one: sub, MM breaks sub turn two: sub, MM breaks sub turn three: sub, MM breaks sub at this point I can flamethrower and OHKO every time. i have to a) hope no crit, b) hope for a miss/fully paralyzed turn to either keep the sub intact or go for a nasty plot. there's not much else to do with lead metagross as far as i can tell. if it's paralyzed at any point during infernape's turns, things look better. and i should beat it every time unless it crits/raises attack on turn with MM so that Latias doens't have time to thunder wave it. |

Battle Tower Record
      Previous record with this team (different EV spread on latias): Peterko (696) - Latias, Registeel, Garchomp This run started on Sunday, Oct. 4, 2009 … … some warstories ... ... Friday, Oct. 16, 2006 = battles 491-553 (63 wins) Saturday, Oct. 17, 2009 = battles 554-672 (119 wins) Sunday, Oct. 18, 2009 = battles 673-742 (70 wins) 693 694 was a fisherman with lead gastrodon (haven ´t seen one in like 300 battles) and I risked the trick and worked (was set3 though)…this is a bad decision as 1st turn switch is optimal 700 was a legendary trainer with lead curseregisteel who got 3-0ed by chomp 700 702 set4 trainer and I set up steel, latias died to some CH, incoming magmortar c-rays so I say fuck you I attack and it CHs (I think) but I burn myself..sent out gyarados and I do around 30%, he quaked and Dded and I attacked and subbed oh his rest, then I mamaged one more IH before falling to burn (was at 23hp and that´s exactly 1/8 which sucks because 1/16 is just 11…) anyway I calc damage and if he flinches/CHs I lose, outrage does 73% min though…well, he Dded and outrage finished 707 714 721 728 730 (I think)… ice trainer with jynx, trick missed, jynx mean looked, trick hit, locked into lovely kiss, struggled to death…mamoswine came in, ice fang, set1 with hail, charmed three times, utilized recover, then switched back and forth to PP waste quake and ice fang, the ninth fang froze steel, brought chomp on peck, gg 735 737 veteran costin zapdos trick, u-turn, 125/185 regirock t-wave, ice punch, freeze, 49/185 switch, steel, IP 184/187 switch, fire

sub broke, 107/187 sub, fire punch, 72/187 curse, fire punch, 83/187 iron head, 75%, fully para, 94/187 iron head, KO, 105/187 raikou light screen, iron head, 52% 116/187 bolt, sub broke, iron head, KO, 127/187 zapdos twister, flinch, 132/187 twister, amnesia, 137/187 twister, amnesia, 145/187 twister, amnesia, 154/187 twister, sub, 117/187 twister, IH, 48%, 128/187 twister, IH, 48%, 139/187 twister, IH, KO, 2-0 lesson learned: t-wave zapdos and this would´ve been a breeze (I figured this out a lot earlier but whatever...it´s not always sunday, ehm) 742 PI with walrein which missed its first sheer cold but then hit the other 4, so I was only able to get sub and 1 SD, was enough in the end to sweep probopass and duggy 742 Monday, Oct. 19, 2009 = battles 743-805 (63 wins) 749 “gastro from hell” switched back and forth to PP waste IB and EP and then tricked his CH poisoningsludge bomb, set up chomp on struggle, swept jynx & shiftry 749 750 raichu4 from hell I missed trick for the 3rd time in R1 during this streak, he t-waved me and then CH returned…sent in steel who got 2Ched in a row (making it 3 in a row) and then another CH on the 6th hit and another one on the 8th… … …

ZOMFG. I often look at this topic without posting because I am a 15 years old foreign student and my english is far from perfect , but I had to post for this.
I don't think anyone will make a higher score. Even mystic251 (if you know him) has "only" managed to reach 709 xD Epic, really. Your trick team strategy is really the best. |

Incredible there Peterko. I'm not sure when I'll ever get back to doing the battle tower if ever again though.

*stabs Peterko while he sleeps*
What? Anyway, I noticed my proposed team a while back is technically impossible for me, so I've changed it. Metagross @ Choice Scarf Jolly 252 HP / 252 Spe -Trick -Light Screen -Reflect -Protect I think this reasonably obvious. It's a TrickScarf lead, like every other TrickScarf lead out there. Snorlax @ Leftovers Careful / Thick Fat 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SpD -Substitute -Curse -Return -Crunch Snorlax takes special hits like a Baneblade, and he packs about as much punch as well. Curse means he doesn't die when poked with a sharpened stick. Dragonite @ Lum Berry Adamant 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spe -Substitute -Roost -Dragon Dance -Outrage I already used my Dragon Claw TM. ;_; Lum Berry for obvious reasons. Comments? P.S. Anyone who has any of these Pokemon with good IVs, GIMME GIMME GIMME. ;)

Geez, 1001 wins has finally been accomplished, congrats Peterko, looks like Jumpman has something to battle for now:D I don't think I can even fight in the Battle Tower anymore with a streak that impressive on the records now:( May try some of the other battle frontier facilities sometime if Peterko or Jumpman doesn't dominate them first:D

seriously though, congrats dude!! that's a testament to patience, given that you already had the record, and it would take so long to get back up to it. must have been a hard few days - i know doing too much BT makes you very exhausted, and probably after 50 odd matches, your decision making skills are not as good as you'd like them to be. pity there is no good trace trick-lead (or is there?) or else you'd always be able to tell if you were up against a sticky-holder, although it'd still be a watse of an ability given that it's so situational..... anyway, in less impressive news..... i've now entered the top 10 with 133*. i figure i get a "close call" every 20 or so matches, so i only have to luck my way out of another 45 or so and i will have caught up! i remember being so sad when my old tetris game gave me a score of 3$@@5 or some weird ascii after passing 32000ish. glad the 1000 streak didnt crash your game or something :) |

Woah.
A 1001 streak? No freakin' way. Congratulations. The farthest I have ever made it through the Battle Tower was 28 battles. That is just the beast-of-the beast, no doubt. Words cannot describe that achievement with all of that patience. Once again, congratulations.

Wow. When I was slowly scrolling down that post, I was like, "No wayyy..." (in an impressed tone), then the next picture comes: "Noooo Waayyy... Seriously?!", then the next, then the next: "Whoa, is he going to get 1000 or what!". And sure enough, 1002, and still continuing, wow, that's amazing!
