Is it possible to get Victini in the American versions? Every time I try to connect to wifi, it just tells me "the server is undergoing maintenance". Is there a way around this to download the mystery gift?

Do you want it to be competitively viable? You'll need to breed at least twice to get Drain Punch and Mach Punch on it, which is precisely the reason I'm waiting until post-game to do so. If you don't mind not having those (awesome for it) moves, use it all you want. Who cares otherwise?

Sturdy/Waterlogged Shedinja are his only real improvements this gen, and those only work in double/triple battles. And even then, it's still very conditional. No poison, sandstorm, LC, Mold Breaker, etc. A good gimmick, but not competitively practical. For 1v1, he's still in NU.

First time using paint, and first time drawing since...english class, freshman year, high school. Not my first nuzlocke challenge, but this is the farthest I've gotten and everything's not dead yet. So be nice. Flaming hurts, yo. And I am a SENSITIVE PERSON. But really, if this is any good so...

Breloom is the perfect Captain Falcon. A pokemon/SSB game would be so amazing. GO LUVDISC!!! Nice warstory dude. I think Breloom's use is going to skyrocket after warstories like this. Your opponent completely outpredicted you in the beginning, then fell apart on Breloom. Dang. *makes mental...

The money thing is a great idea, but why not make it for differing amounts of money depending on skill level? A couple months ago I would've gladly bet over 20$ a pop, but now...eh, even something as small as $1 would be interesting. No one would care that they're losing a buck, and the winner...

Most of what you said was right on the money TVboy, but the last bit needs a bit of correction. CB Scyther was pretty sweet in advance. Not game-winning or anything like that, but definitely fun and useable. Choice Band's for pokes with lots of attack? Tauros, one of my favorite pokes, is...

Nice analysis, idea, and all that jazz. Honestly, in the long and short of it, Scyther could be a nice CBer, but he's completely outdone by other better, more stable pokemon that can fill more gaps in a team (Staraptor, Gyarados:P, Tauros). He's also stopped quite easily by common counters/walls...

How I first started playing pokemon: My brother got me Blue for Christmas when I was 6. I played it straighed all day, mad a level 23 Ivysaur when I fought Brock. I remember repeatedly using Tackle on Lance's Dragonite (yes, I kept it on for some reason), and then Lance used a Full Restore -_-...

http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20481 Pretty much tells all you need. Btw, no one's going to stay in if they're put asleep. Wake-Up Slap is crap anyways - woo, 120 power. They'll hit you when they wake up, and we all know Breloom's problems with taking hits.

-_- Since you obviously couldn't tell, I was joking about the hazebat thing. To quote from Blueshirt32's guide, ...yeah. Sorry for the big read. Yes, it is from the last gen, but it still applies.

You guyz ar all NOOBS I can't believe you haven't suggested the HAZEBAT yet!!1!11!!!! Crobat@Lefovrs HAZE Air Slash Brave Bird Sludge Bomb IT's fast, it can haze, go befor the other pokemen, and blow all those stat ups away!! I sTill can't believe nobody remeberd this...

I do believe I just about died reading that. Actually, the daycare lady's always looked back and forth before getting your pokes (in RSE at least). I don't know about GSC, confirmation would be nice. I've always assumed that she was looking around for your pokemon, and that that was how the...

So use some support. Go DUGTRIO! 1HKO on Heatran, easy, and it traps. Just send out your wee Tangrowth on something that it'll rape, and immediately switch to your duggy. Or wait a turn; use your (hopefully) good prediction skills.

A future BT team for me: Wobbuffet@lefties Counter Mirror Coat Safeguard Encore Very simple. Encore off the bat. Kill it if they attacked, safeguard and switch if they used a status move. If they use anything that gyara can take well, switch to him and DD up. It's not banned in the...
