  1. January 2012 Statistics Discussion

    I don't know why you guys are focusing on Honchkrow (who really deserves more credit), when the stats are reflecting a huge jump in Hippopotas usage. Just goes to show that sandstorm is a very viable strategy in the metagame. Surprised it took this long for people to catch on, with it being a...
  2. Sand discussion thread

    I lol'd at Stoutland's picture (presumably unintentionally) changing to Arceus. It was kind of true for awhile, when Hippowdon was still UU. Posting to say that Gligar is an AMAZING wall. Sand Veil just makes it even sweeter, in sandstorm. I used him as a Toxic staller, which went very well...
  3. The UU Senate

    The number of senators dramatically needs an increase. Being one of the five means an assload of power to one individual, regardless of if he/she "represents the community" or not. The idea of an agenda was brought up before, and the fact is that if there were to be, say, nine people in the...
  4. Volbeat (Analysis)

    Under Checks and Counters, you mention Spikes, but Volbeat is immune to it. -Zane Edit: Ignore this post. I would have bet money that Volbeat was Flying-type as well...
  5. Whimsicott (Analysis)

    I know this is still a skeleton, but in the overview, you state that Whimsicott has good bulk, when in fact it has terrible bulk (thanks to its pitiful HP stat). May be better to clarify that the lack of attacking moves and need for Speed (thanks to Prankster) allow Whimsicott to fully invest in...
  6. Alakazam

    I still feel like Magic Guard + Encore is usable. Alakazam's got the Speed to pull it off, unlike Clefable. -Zane
  7. am team ok.

    I meant a Poison-type for the sake of Toxic (since Deoxys-D never runs Psychic...). If anybody ever used Agility Deoxys-D, my team would pretty much be decimated (but that's never seen anymore...). Drapion is pretty much a full stop to Deoxys-D (and can absorb its Toxic Spikes while at it), but...
  8. drugs (we're gonna get hi, hi, hi)

    I keep considering getting my medical marijuana card. I know absolutely nothing about the certain types of weed, nor do I know how to even handle a dispensary visit. I work with design and I have sleeping troubles (both falling and staying asleep). I'm trying to find out the best for...
  9. am team ok.

    Well, the main reason I wanted a Poison-type was to handle Deoxys-D, and Roserade can't really do that. I'm thinking that Drapion may be a good choice, but it doesn't solve my Water-type problems (while it DOES remedy the Psychic-type weakness). But getting rid of Omastar opens up my team to...
  10. am team ok.

    I'm not very good at this, honestly. I have a bad habit of just using Pokémon I like. But anyways, this team is all about Zapdos. I write too much, so feel free to skim the team building process and the descriptions. I will play around with this team some more tomorrow (or later) to find my...
  11. Dugtrio (GP 2/2)

    The only perk of using Night Slash in UU is that frail Normal-types can't set up on you as well... But the only Normal-type with set-up moves that comes to my mind is Porygon-Z. But as opposed to OU, where Virizion AND Terrakion roam, and Normal-types are virtually non-existent, UU has a few...
  12. Druddigon (Analysis)

    mjL:>t555 'Ly1`kaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Edit: Sorry. My cat was sitting on my keyboard. You may delete this if you'd like, but it's kind of cute. lol.
  13. Rotom-C

    Make sure to mention Rotom-H as a fatty-ass counter. Especially considering how common it is. -Zane Edit: Also, if this analysis is one day found owner-less, I'd like to snatch it up. :33333
  14. Dugtrio (GP 2/2)

    I don't understand how this passed QC. The set should be virtually the same from OU to UU. Aerial Ace also does not deserve a slash. Most Heracross are Choice Scarfed. In fact, I doubt I've even encountered one that isn't. Even so, it's only a single threat (unlike in OU, with Breloom and...
  15. Eelektross (Analysis)

    Why isn't Discharge suggested on the special attacker? It's a trade off of power for paralysis which this guy seriously appreciates. And since its bulk isn't too shabby (with essentially no weaknesses as well), I feel like it could afford it. Thunder Wave can also work effectively with...
