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.

Hello everyone! First, of all let me say thanks for reading this RMT and I hope it inspires you to give VoltTurnMayhem a try while it's still featured.
I started playing pokemon here way back at the beginning of season 4, but I've been away for quite a while. Recently I...
OH man people are still doing the Prankster outrage thing on Kyu-B? >_<
Such a good strategy. There are some dedicated strategies that can beat it but they can't do much else. You've got to get a way to get rid of their blissey (probably) that has the actual outrage.
Hazards are definitely the most important part of hackmons, the other most important part is spore. With no sleep clause a game can get out of hand fast.
Also, there is a list of the most common pokemon and the abilities they carry here:

So I've faced this in Pure Hackmons repeatedly, and it should work in Balance Hackmons as well, but you'll have to watch out for Imposter Blissey who is more common in BH. It's not my set but I'm pretty sure this is it exactly.

When Assist calls a multi-hit move like Outrage it should lock the user into that move as usual and result in potential confusion as usual (at least this is how it works in Platinum), currently it does neither of these things. It creates a small (although hardly significant) problem in Balanced...
Just have an alt for testing.
If we were to have a ladder for testing then that ladder would not accurately represent the real ladder and you wouldn't really be testing against the kind of teams you'd see on the real tier. You'd just be fighting other garbage test teams. It makes far more sense...
Well considering Hackmons and Balance Hackmons are the most common other metagames played, and the fact that everyone uses Showdown that seems unlikely Ludwig.
I'm thinking we should try it with Hackmons or Balance Hackmons and see what happens. Balance Hackmons is ostensibly the preferred...
Alright I don't know about Leech Seed, but the Dragon Resistance and Lava Plume are very nice indeed. As well as the immunity to toxic spikes.
Added Magic Bounce Heatran
It doesn't sound like you were playing very good players :/
I mean Magic Bounce should almost never stop hazard setters in Hackmons because they should be running mold breaker. You make an interesting argument for Lava Plume though. I'm going to try this out.
Alright, so old thread is old, but that being said if some people are interested in the idea now I'm totally in. I'd gladly set-up a weekly tournament if we could get enough people on borad. Obviously 16 plus is preferable but this definitely doable with 8 or more players if only to keep these...
