    BDSP Battle Tower Discussion & Records

    I'm not quite at the point where I'm ready to actually start the Battle Tower yet, but I've been watching some streams and keeping up with this thread while theorycrafting on the back burner. I will say that I have not looked at the spreadsheets for mons at all yet, either. The team comps seem...

    Bug Reports v3 [READ ORIGINAL POST before posting]

    It appears as though dynamaxing while affected by trick-or-treat removes the added ghost type. This is at least a visual bug, but the battle did not reveal whether or not it actually removed the functionality of the ghost typing. Replay here...

    Never Gonna Peter Out - VGC17 RMT

    I've been experimenting with tailwind as speed control recently and have found it quite effective when you can exert immense offensive pressure. My main question is how do you deal with trick room? I see that you have Taunt on Krook, and Skydrop on Aerodactyl, which may very well work. Have you...

    VGC17 Rain Tailwind RMT

    Developing EV Spreads is something that takes time and practice to understand fully, as well as metagame knowledge. When you are selecting a 'mon for a team, it is important to identify exactly how it is contributing to your end goal. Do you need it to survive X Pokemon's attack and still be...

    2017 musics

    I am super excited for Code Orange's new album. I think it's called Forever... The singles have been absolutely visceral and, while I have grown out of hardcore in a general sense, I still get great joy in abrasive music. In a similar vein, Counterparts usually puts something out every other...

    Writers on Smogon

    What do you like to write?: This may be a bit of a stretch given the context of this thread, but I typically write song lyrics. Outside of that, it's usually smut - if I'm honest. Are you working on a current project?: I just joined a new band recently, and I have about 9 songs that I need...

    Resource VGC 2017 Viability Rankings (Currently Outdated)

    I had to CTRL+F to make sure, but I don't see Oranguru on the list. I would vote to put Oranguru in B-Tier. It's unique access to instruct gives it a fantastic niche on trick room teams, and is a very important aspect of the well-known Oranguru+Torkoal+Liligant core. While not as universally...

    [MANDATORY] TEAM BUILDING HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT

    I liked William Tansely's team is it contains 3 Pokemon that I was looking at using in my next team and has a consistent strategy in the form of abusing electric terrain, which is something I sometimes struggle with in my teambuilding. Tapu Koko @ Life Orb Ability: Electric Surge Level: 50...

    Battle Tree Discussion and Records

    The standard set on Toxapex works really well in my experience so far: Recover, Scald, Toxic, Haze. I just EV'd mine for HP & Def.

    Poke-Habits

    Really? I've been getting great milage out of Poke Pelago. Obviously 30 hours is a ridiculous ly long time to EV train one Pokémon, but it has given me a way to do it while also studying for finals!
