    Gen III Battle Frontier Discussion and Records

    I I wanted to ask about a section of Serebii's Battle Factory page: https://serebii.net/emerald/factory.shtml Is it true that trading Pokemon gradually gets you better choices for Pokemon as you progress? And if so, what are the parameters that define a "powerful" Pokemon versus just a...

    Sticky Orange Islands SQSA Thread

    I also have an issue with an Adamant Rillaboom whose SpA I was trying to determine: I'm certain about the stats and EVs, but though the stats and EVs are certain and the Rillaboom is Lv100, I seem to have two numbers for SpA. I'm wondering what I can do to discriminate the number, as I like...

    I apologize for the previous post; it has been deleted. It was posted in the wrong thread.

    Super useful! Thanks very much for elaborating on that! Y'all know a lot.

    Wow, thanks for all the detail in this post! I will be using it for sure! EDIT: The rough thing about the Battle Factory is that you can't steamroll the early Pokemon in the same way you can when you bring a fit team to the other facilities. And there look like a few annoyances just from a...

    So, Breloom in Gen 3 has two ability slots: Effect Spore (0) and Effect Spore (1). If a Shroomish has the (1) ability and stays un-evolved in Gen 3, it can evolve in Gen 4 and have Poison Heal, right? Now what I'm wondering is, what if Shroomish evolves into Breloom in Gen 3 with ability (1)...

    Unpopular opinions

    I didn't like the stories to Black & White very much, and even less so B2W2. When I was younger, I liked it a little more than ordinary Pokemon narratives, which is not a high bar to overcome, but it's still something. It seemed less childish than other games. Now I think much less of it...

    Thank you! and I see how that could be useful, but I have a difficult time moving the cursors that flank the highlighted text in order to change the size of what's highlighted. Maybe it's man hands using a small phone. Either way, I end up struggling, especially to scroll up or down while trying...

    Is there such a resource for the all the Pokemon in various battle facilities, especially in the Battle Factory? I might have missed it in the first page posts. I'm looking for something that lists the opponent Pokemon the AI can use, in the type format that timfredo posted, where there's...

    Which NPC Pokémon battles have been your most enjoyable or most challenging experiences?

    I remember one where you're Shadow Tag'd or Arena Trap'd, and the secret to getting your ally Pokemon sitting in the bench --- the only Pokemon that can complete the battle --- is to faint one of your own current Pokemon.

    Favorite Battle Background

    I enjoyed the scene in BDSP's tower, the one before the town with the Day-Care. Although I am somewhat skeptical that that much plant matter would grow inside that place.

    Which NPC Pokémon battles have been your most enjoyable or most challenging experiences?

    I don't remember the double Furfrou fight, as it's been a while since I played XY, but the totem battles were a lot of fun. Well-designed, clever battles. If it counts, the battle CDs in Pokémon XD were very fun. They felt like clever little puzzles. I wish this was a recurring feature in...

    Smogon Simple Questions Thread

    Thank you, I was just hoping there was a way to do this without having to erase a large chunk of the message. I'm on a PC right now, so it's not that big of a problem, but most of the time I'm on mobile and it's harder to erase text there.

    Smogon Simple Questions Thread

    Is there a way to quote only part of a post? In another video game site I'm able to just highlight the part of the message I want to quote and then hit "Quote," and only that highlighted part appears in a quote block. Is it possible to do something similar here?
