Yeah, Beldum is feeling the love. :)Beldum: Zen Headbutt
I need to check in the Survial area, I will do that tomorrow.
Only problem I see with that is that you'll see teams of 5 Standards + Rotom form simply to reduce the accuracy of their opponents Hypnosis.How about Shoddy keeps the 70% accuracy unless you/your opponent have the alternate forms?
But why would you, if it's just going to reduce accuracy?You can still be playing platinum without using the alternate forms, though.
They're both UU...Ooooh! I want to try a Honchcrow! I might breed for one now!
Does anyone have any tips/good movesets for Persian and Golduck? Honchy, Persian, and Goldy are all BL right?
Alakazam says hi. And he has better speed.GG at totally fucking up Rampardos's ability... the only Steel immune to EQ is Skarm who's neutral to Stone Edge anyway.
Anyway, Knock Off Empoleon: Yay, now my favorite Pokémon finally has my second favorite Pokémon's most used attack! Woo! Minor change that helps him a lot... imagine Knocking Off an incoming Blissey, Tentacruel's Leftovers or something!
Is Superpower Absol enough of an addition to move him up a tier or two? Perhaps. He no longer needs a Swords Dance to OHKO Tyranitar and now can seriously threaten Steel-types. But while taking care of Absol's 3rd biggest flaw (paper defenses and low speed being the first two) is really great, Swords Dance Superpower kinda sucks as you get weaker with it...
Ice Punch Lucario seems to be a non-issue for SD sets. As you could already run HP Ice on Lucario with no EV investment to get the same effect (raping Gliscor), you still have to either give up ExtremeSpeed or a vital coverage move to use it. So all it does is shift around who "counters" it a bit.
Bullet Punch Scizor is the most awesomest thing ever. Metagross in Ubers can go fuck himself, Scizor is here with an even STRONGER priority!
Trick suits Porygon-Z perfectly, to be honest.

- Trick
- Nasty Plot
- Tri Attack
- Dark Pulse
To start, you scout out the team. Wear things down with Tri Attacks on switches. Is it an offensive team? Keep the item and wear down the opponent on switches. Stall team? Get rid of the mostly burdensome item (try doing it to Blissey to really fuck them up), come back late, Nasty Plot up, and sweep!
Alakazam says by (to pursuit), not that it should stop him, but it's something PZ has over itAlakazam says hi. And he has better speed.
As long as I was not using the move Hypnosis on my team, I would absolutely use Platinum to battle even if I didn't have any alternate forms. Isn't the whole point of competitive [anything] to give yourself any advantage you can, no matter how small?But why would you, if it's just going to reduce accuracy?
Not yet, it's all speculation.Hax is freakin killing me. Seriously.
Haven't been keeping up. Are any OU's now Uber's? BL's now OU's? UU's now BL's or OU's?
Ice Beam got lowered to 95%, along with flamethrower and thunderboltHave any other moves (besides Hypnosis) been confirmed to lose/gain accuracy?
They were already 95%.Ice Beam got lowered to 95%, along with flamethrower and thunderbolt
