Wanted to take a moment to look back on some of the most noteworthy matches that have been played in the past year or so. Mt. Battle 3 Quarter-Finals - Lhions vs Mosquito - 3-2 G1 https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/dawn-gen3orrecolosseum-224719-jhffumw7upqx7zg3fs4tckntr32h13dpw G2...

Data Viability Rankings (Orre Cup X - Orre Cup XIV) The Data VR has been updated to include all tournaments up to Orre Cup 14 (Orre Cup X, Mt. Battle 3, Orre Cup 12, Temple of Ra x Orre Colosseum, Orre Cup 14). Massive thanks to 2xNoodle for help collecting and formatting a lot of the data...

What kind of Orre player are you? Share your results in the Discord! A snapshot of the metagame using results from the last three Orre Colosseum tournaments (Orre Cup X, Mt. Battle 3, Orre Cup 12). Results from Row 8 and below have low sample size (thanks to Noodle for help collecting the...

What type of bug are you reporting? Validator What is the bug? Gen 2 formats with Event Clause (such as NC 2000) now incorrectly flag all Hidden Power types as "Event-only" moves, thus banned. Regular "Hidden Power" is however allowed. No clue why this started happening as it was fine...

Japanese Tier Lists As mentioned in the OP, Hoenn Stadium has been played for the last 20 years in Japan, so I wanted to share some tier lists I found. There are two important differences. The first is that they played at Level 50, which means no Tyranitar. This is undoubtedly significant, as...

(this is wip) Over time the Orre community has come up with several subformats that diversify the viable strategies and Pokemon. Main formats XD - Restricted & Mythical Pokemon are banned. Soul Dew is banned. Inspired by Pokemon XD's Orre Colosseum. Colloquially referred to as "Standard"...

art by IoSonoNeon approved by johnnyg2 Hoenn Stadium Hoenn Stadium is the officially supported Singles format of Gen 3. It uses Bring6Pick3 rules, with Item Clause, Team Preview and no additional bans or restrictions. Compared to 6v6, Hoenn Stadium is much faster paced, but individual games...

Hey appreciate this! Could I get a version without text or background, just Metagross and Salamence? DM it to me if you can please so I can DM you back

Requester: Akiak For: Orre Singles (Bring6Pick3 ADV singles, inspired by the ruleset in Pokemon Colosseum & XD) Art Direction: Just Salamence and Metagross fighting each other, with no text and no background.

For ADV & DPP doubles: 1) Hidden Power Electric is supposed to ignore Lightningrod. This is known as it was abused in Battle Road 2005 tournaments to beat Marowak+Gyarados (source at the bottom of the page, also here). Replay. Also affects Gen 4. 2) Shell Bell seems to not take into account...

Any update on these two? Here's a couple replays of Shell Bell in action in XD: https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkx9n1RzRnZAef3ACMV9Rs32mwd8kQfVvvL?si=MJgEA8vYFJw98KJZ

I was looking at this for ADV Doubles, cause it removes Sub/Icy Wind/Twave/Boom for a ton of mons, which is really interesting. And I had an idea. Ruby & Sapphire contain data for every single Pokemon (and item) in them. So one could simply play a metagame that allows every Pokemon, but bans...

Johto Stadium Welcome to Johto Stadium! This is a collection of formats inspired by the official competitive ruleset (Nintendo Cup) as well as the 3 cups introduced in Pokémon Stadium 2 (Prime Cup, Poké Cup, Little Cup). These formats are the preferred way of playing Gen 2 in Japan, and the...
