Wordpad (not Notepad) does it in plain simple text form.
You miss 2OHKO on Occa Berry as you need twice maximum damage (counting Occa Berry in) to 2OHKO Metagross with Flamethrower. But I think think it's that important. You also have 96% chance to 2OHKO Hippowdon with Fire Blast, when with Flamethrower it's impossible.
However with Bronzong it's interesting. On Smogon it shows 44.4% - 52.7% with Flamethrower, which may not even 2OHKO most of times. However on Libelldra it shows 57.40% - 68.05%, so I'm not sure which is true. But if Smogon is right, then Fire Blast is also for Bronzong.
I hope that helps ;).
On this forum, How can I put my Pokemon from my trade thread into the middle of the post? I tried it out with space but it didn´t work, they´re always at the left.
Type it all in, highlight, and use the center button.
You may use it on Deo-A if you really need to hit those few neutral targets, but I still don't recommend it. Special attack drop may be fatal for you, when you don't have enough power to take out for example Scizor with HP Fire after you attacked someone with Psycho Boost. I would only consider it, when Fighting Arceus will be allowed on Shoddy. So yes, in most situations Psycho Boost is redundant.
hey guys. anyone know how to copy and paste stuff from word and get it on here without PHP tags? I'm trying to copy and paste a RMT, but I know that it'll bring up php tags if I don't do something
EDIT: thanks Haunter

Considering an overwhelming majority of the Pokemon used in Ubers are Psychic-type or Dragon-type, Dark, Ghost, Bug, Ice, and Dragon moves are all very good. Usually Psychic-type attacks are discouraged because of all the Psychic-types that take reduced damage from them. You should have at least one or two Fire-type moves on your team, because Forretress and Scizor are really common, plus Fire gets a boost from Groudon's auto-sun ability.
Mainly ghost, bug and dark (with all those psychic types it's obvious), fighting (Dialga, Darkrai, many neutral targets), dragon and ice (dragons, shaymin-s, groudon), electric (Kyogre, many neutral targets) and ground (many steel types and Tyranitar to hit SE with Earthquake). Also fire attacks are nice to have with all those Forretress, Scizors and Metagrosses running around. I guess that's it - those are the best attacking types in Ubers. Water also isn't bad with rain around.
I've decided to work with what I have and start breeding again... right now, my goal is a HailStall team... I was wondering whether my Milotic had ANY place on it whatsoever!
Yes, Milotic can be used on hail teams as they tend to be weak to fire moves for obvious reasons. But please, try to list the 6 Pokemon you would want to use on your team before asking for a single Pokemon as, you know, Pokemon teams tend to be assembled upon synergy between team members and no one can help you without knowing your whole team (even if it's not made yet).
I was considering Abomasnow, Froslass, Walrein, Milotic...
If you're going to make a Hail Stall team, don't forget to read this article; it should come in handy. http://www.smogon.com/dp/articles/art_hail_stall
Try it with RNG
Is Regigigas viable on stall? I mean, those defenses are amazing and Slow Start doesn't hurt his stalling ability.
my guess is no, since its support movepool is surprisingly small. it does not have:
50% recovery
protect
stealth rock
spikes
and 110/110/110 isnt worth it without recovery or any of that other stuff

More than anything else, yes.

Say...if Mewtwo is limited to two attacking moves, should they be Ice Beam/Aura Sphere, Ice Beam/Thunder or Shadow Ball/Aura Sphere? Also, is SpecsTwo a better option than Calm Mind with three attacking moves?
Its defenses are pretty darn good, but the only type it takes less damage from is Ghost. Gengar usually carries Focus Blast and Rotom-A will have their Electric STAB to use. It doesn't have any good recovery either besides Rest, and I'm not even sure it gets that. I'm going to guess that another pokemon would do his job much better.
Regigigas doesn't get Rest
ColdEye, Ice beam/Thunder, Aura Sphere/Shadow Ball, Aura Sphere/Ice Beam depends on preference and team needs. For instance, if your team has something to handle Darkrai, but would really love to see Kyogre gone, go with Ice Beam/Thunder. If say, your team needs to handle Darkrai and check Garchomp/Rayquaza, you should use Ice Beam/Aura Sphere. Aura Sphere/Shadow Ball offers unresisted coverage, so say if the first two situations don't apply to you, or perhaps you need Mewtwo to hit other Mewtwo super-effectively, this combo can work for you.

Hmmm... interesting idea ;). But I would go with it in NU or maximum UU - it's just that his supporting movepool is too small, making it much worse choice in most cases. However in NU I can see it working with his defences and can counter some ghost types like Haunter and here he's not outclassed by Chansey or Blissey in this kind of job (Munchlax however may be a competition in teams slot for this). As a mixed wall - I guess he could work. And in NU we have few psychic types with Wish like Hypno, which easily resists fighting moves aimed on Regigigas and heal him if neccesary.
Ice Beam/Aura Sphere has great coverage in Ubers hitting every single target in Ubers for at least neutral damage (I don't remember resist for this in Ubers) however Ice Beam/Thunder isn't bad idea also (however it depends to much on weather to be truly effective). So in most cases Ice Beam/Aura Sphere is superior choice. And Calm Minder IMO outclasses Specs set. As I said earlier - Specs in Pursuit bait for Scizor, Tyranitar and Metagross if you predict wrong so you need perfect prediction to make it work. So go with Calm Minder - it's better in most situations.
