    SPOILERS! Pokemon Sword and Shield Datamine Thread

    After reading his comments comparing the forces of nature to his grumpy old neighbor, I'd like to remind everyone that the house closest to his is the one where Sonia resides for most of the dlc (until you complete her quest). Lol. I know neighbors don't have to be next door neighbors, but...

    SPOILERS! Pokemon Sword and Shield Datamine Thread

    Do we know if the Ability Patch affects the egg HA possibility, or if it's more like Bottle Caps (no effect on eggs)? I'd like to think it will affect the eggs b/c it seems different enough from bottle caps, but I didn't even get to 200 Dynite yet to confirm anyway.

    SPOILERS! Pokemon Sword and Shield Datamine Thread

    Also, just as innocuous as Water Gun Phanpy, Throh lost Mat Block just this gen (the most recent example I can remember), which it only had access to last gen. Mat Block is apparently still a usable move programmed into gen 8, but its only native learner now, Gren, still isn't available. And...

    SPOILERS! Pokemon Sword and Shield Datamine Thread

    I'd also like to know about Poltergeist vs. the Kasib and Jaboca Berries. My guess for the Kasib scenario is, if Poltergeist connects, the Kasib will be consumed, and then Poltergeist will fail at that point. But I have no idea if Jaboca would damage the Poltergeister or what. Concerning...

    SPOILERS! Pokemon Sword and Shield Datamine Thread

    Does anyone know the locations of all the in-game trade girls (and am I asking the right place)? I found a bunch of them at the beginning, when I didn't even have a Marowak or Sandslash, but now that I have them, I can't find most of the girls anymore. I think two or three were in the forest...

    SM OU Misty Seed Scept in OU

    So I guess the greatest plus Lando-T has over Chomp is U-turn. I'm using this set: Landorus-Therian @ Leftovers Ability: Intimidate EVs: 196 HP / 224 Def / 88 Spe Impish Nature - Stealth Rock - Earthquake - Hidden Power [Ice] - U-turn The Speed investment is for neutral-natured...

    SM OU Misty Seed Scept in OU

    I was considering Bronzong in the Garchomp slot as a third Ice Resist along w/ Fini and M-Scizor (and technically, Blacephalon resists Ice as well, but I probably shouldn't count it), but I'm also using Chomp as my second Fire resist, so it's a tough call. I feel like Ash Gren is never a...

    SM OU Misty Seed Scept in OU

    Introduction I made a Misty Terrain team around Sceptile in NU a while back. Now I want to bring this green lizard to OU. The upside is that Fini exists as the auto-setter for MT. The downside is that Sceptile now needs actual Speed investment to be faster than everything, which cuts away...

    SM PU Girafarig kinda balanced

    Hi! I'd also like to see Girafarig put in work, so I'll help you out to the best of my abilities. First, the Girafarig: w/ Life Orb, I found it could only attack maybe once or twice per battle, before fainting. LO also limited the opportunities for it to set up a Nasty Plot. When I changed it...

    SM NU WP Incin

    SD was a really good call on don. I'm really enjoying that. Vikavolt was quite the headache though. I first tried the NU Tank set, but it didn't hit hard enough, and it didn't take hits as well as its title implied. And I never found the opportunity to click Roost, so it was just like having 3...

    SM NU WP Incin

    Thanks for the feedback. As per your suggestions, I've changed my team and tested it a few times. Here's what it looks like now: Kasha (Incineroar) (M) @ Weakness Policy Ability: Intimidate EVs: 120 HP / 220 Atk / 168 Spe Adamant Nature - Flame Charge - Power Trip - Bulk Up -...

    SM NU WP Incin

    Introduction Inspired by SANJAY's Incineroar set (at least I think it's his; sorry if he got it from someone else too, but it sounded like he thought it up himself), I wanted to make my own team around it after seeing it in action a few times. @ Ability- Intimidate EVs- 120 HP | 220 Atk |...

    SM UU Hustle Z-Mirror Move Togekiss

    Introduction I want Hustle Z-Mirror Move Togekiss to put in work in the UU tier. Hustle Togekiss was not exactly viable prior to gen 7; the introduction of Z-moves gave this particular set a surprise buff with Flyinium Z-Mirror Move acting as a one-time Swords Dance. However, pulling off a...

    SM NU Let's talk about Terrains in the lower tiers, feat. Misty Seed Sceptile in NU

    Introduction I've always been interested in seeing and using Terrains in the lower tiers. Since no one else is talking about it, I decided to bring it here. I decided to make a Misty Terrain (MT) team in the NU tier because MT has two Prankster setters in Meowstic and Whimsicott, the latter...
