Has anything really major occurred on smogon in the past month that I might have missed and would probably need to know about?

Well there was the second coming of Christ. Hope you didn't miss that...

Next to that there were the VGC Nationals in St. Louis. That was pretty big in my lil' opinion...;D
 
Um.

I was trying RNG abusing out and it said I had to click the Happiness Checker 477 times. Are the numbers for RNG abuse always so mind-bogglingly high? Also, does clicking a Pokemon instead of a double click affect the RNG?
 
This might be a tough one to answer. Someone suggested a site with pokemon art on it but I can't rememeber the name for the life of me.

It's a pretty small site but it has tons of images for each pokemon. Art, sprites, shiny art, etc.Does anyone know the name of this site? It's not pokemon elite.
 
I am considering using a Bulky Adamant Machamp (252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spe) for the Battle Hall. His moveset is as follows:

~ Dynamic Punch
~ Thunder Punch
~ Bullet Punch
~ Payback / Stone Edge

My question is, what attack should I use for the last slot? In addition, what sort of item should he hold? I was thinking Lum Berry, but I am not sure if a more defensive/offensive item would be best.

Payback is the best move for the unresisted coverage with fighting.

Focus Sash is so Machamp isn't outsped and instantly KOed by Psychic and Flying moves, ssuming you avoid freeze, flinch, and paralyze hax.

In Jubilife City's Global Terminal, there should be a lady next to the PC on the entrance floor. She will ask you if the leading pokémon you have is your fave pokémon or not. Say yes, and that pokémon will be the pokémon next to your Profile.

So... If you wanted the pokémon on your Profile to be an Egg, for example, just have an Egg as the first pokémon on your team, talk to that lady, answer her question with "Yes", and there you go. Egg as your Pokémon in your Profile. Hope that helped, gero.
 
Aw... And you are positive about this..?

Thank you for the information.

EDIT: So, I am raising a Machamp with 252 HP and 252 ATK. If the Speed IV is not perfect, should I put that last point into Defense instead of trying to outspeed min. Speed Blissey?

Well since blissey dont focus on speed theres a good chance it might not have the ivs perfect either. Really i cant see how the point in defence does that much so you might aswell go with speed.
 
Yeah actually I've found that now... I actually forgot about HP Fire in the most recent battle. Although SD Scizor with Superpower may be a problem...

Ah well, I'll swap for HP Grass since I got onwed by a Swampert earlier.
 
If you put HP Fire SOLELY for Scizor, forget it, because Thunderbolt is more than sufficient to kill a trapped Scizor.

This is the case, as Thunderbolt deals more [neautral] than a x2 HP Fire.

STAB Thunderbolt: 142.5 vs SE Hidden Power [Fire 70]: 140

But if Scizor is the CB variant and stuck on Bullet Punch, Thunderbolt should be suffice.

A timid Magnezone with the EV HP:40 SP.ATK:252 SPE:216, or the Scarf set outspeed any Scizor but fails to OHKO Max HP/ATK Scizor with TBolt, if you run the standard Modest set you risk being OHKOed by SD scizor and Metagross running more than 24 SPE EV which would be the case in any Metagross set except the lead and the CB set..

so yeah SD scizor is a problem either ways unless you're behind a sub or he gets a Paralyze hax from TBolt. or having a HP fire.
