Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
GenI: Yellow version was the first pokemon game i played. I loved it as a little kid because you could get all 3 starters within the game(which was the boss thing to do back in the day). I never liked blue or red because of the missingo hacks in it(which when i battled friends i always thought...
Chandelure.
[Overview]
The designers of Pokemon chose to give only a few Pokemon the ability to trap opposing Pokemon. Chandelure fortunately was amongst these blessed Pokemon. Chandelure has advantages over other Pokemon with trapping abilities due to its more diverse move pool and high...
your team is lacking a rapid spinner without one venomoth will not be able to set up if rocks are up. at 1/2 hp u wont survive against many attacks. and venomoth is not safe from blastoise. blastoise can dragon tail u away. if you get a sub up taunt will not affect you but i can see why you...

or the designs could be "different" due to the fact of where the pokemon are. Johto and kanto border eachother and arent far apart at all. Where all the other countries are far apart from eachother. http://www.serebii.net/pokearth/
It makes sense that designs would change because if you look at...
thanks for the rate!
zapados can phase it out. if it gets poisoned by blastiose it cant stay in very long(also blastoise can phase but only if its not behind a sub)
i havent ran into one yet but hopefully i play it right and dont allow it any safe switch its not going to like a hit from any of...
yea this is true but being asleep for 3 turns is going to be a burden. finding time to scald and then sleep is going to be a hassle. and some threats will love the burn(lol no pun intended). Heracross is a big threat for example if u scald it and then rest you'll be in big trouble and force to...
for future refrences on RMT you dont have to put in wht the natures do seeing that people here(and the people you want input from lol) are experienced enough to know wht each nature does.
