I'm thinking replacing Rotom-W with a Specs-Politoad since that would get rid of my fire weakness, and help against excadrill, and ferrothorn is to important to replace. The thing is that takes away another paralyser, but oh well, celebi and jirachi get the job done well.
 
Could someone brief me on the major changes in BW OU since April-ish?

I think that's post-Blaziken's ban (if not, Blaziken was banned), so since then Garchomp's been banned, and sand usage has dropped to be replaced with rain, pushing Thunderus deep into suspect territory, to be voted on at the end of this suspect testing round.
 
So Reflect Type has a "cannot be Arceus" clause?

wait. was i supposed to test reflect type against arceus or on arceus?

cuz the way you say it, it makes it seem like i should done it like this: "starmie used reflect type! it copied arceus's type!"

cuz i tested this: "arceus used reflect type! it failed"

He meant a "gate", not a "clause". Some moves/abilities have "AND" gates, which make sure something (Like Castform's Forecast) works how it's supposed to. Reflect Type has been programmed to not work while Arceus uses it.
 
Would a team built around switches and residual damage (specifically Scizor and Rotom-W using U-turn and volt switch) be viable in the battle subway?

Since it is only 3 on 3, meaning a hazard mon both takes up a valuable team slot, and creates little effect on the opponent, and CPU's almost never switch, U-Turn and Volt Switch are for the most part useless in the Subway, and residual damage is virtually nonexistent. Long story short, no, it's not particularly viable.
 
Hi all ,

in diamond and heartgold i always managed to get 2 pokemons rather soon , that together could learn all HM's .
Is that still possible in B/W ?
Currently i have a cubchou with cut , strenght and surf , a Unfezant with fly.
I dont have any other HM's yet , other then Dive , wich couldnt be learned by cubchou *sadface*
Is there a possibility to get this done ?
 
You don't really need to. The only times you need a HM to progress in-game is the cut tree in the beginning, and you already have your monkey for that.

Otherwise, Ducklett learns Surf, Waterfall and Fly while Watchog learns Cut and Strength. You don't need 2 early Pokemon to do so, since this isn't Diamond where Bidoof is available. As for Dive, you only get it post-game, and Pokemon like Seaking learn Dive(Seaking is available through surfing around Route 14, which you should be at if you have Dive).
 
What is overall gonna hit things harder from a Naive Magcargo, 4 Atk, 252 Sp.A with a ShellSmash up, Stone Edge or Ancient Power? (Yes, I know, it's a fucking Magcargo)
 
Is it possible to find out whether a Duodein learned truely Dark Pulse via breeding or via AR cheat (let´s assume both duodeins are level 1 and both were bred without using any cheats, the first gains dark pulse from a gyarados father with dark pulse and the second duodeins father doesn´t know dark pulse and it is taught the dark pulse with a an AR cheat immediately after being hatched)?

I dont think it will show.
Also i dont think we are allowed to discuss these things (look at 1st post)
