  2. Fear The Turtle!

    Carracosta is one of my favorite 5th gen Pokemon due to his awesome design and insane ability to run a mixed set effectively. I'm glad to see someone other than me who appreciates his somewhat unique playstyle. With item choice you could always try Wide Lens for the slight accuracy boost and...

    Thanks for the vote of confidence! :D
  5. Round 54 Tutee Tournament - Finals [Won by MikeDecIsHere]

    I sort of enjoyed reading all that trash talk, but I try and stay as neutral as possible :P Also, are we supposed to contact our opponent or something? It wasn't exactly clear, to me, in the OP as to how/when these matchups are supposed to happen. Could someone provide some clarification for...
  6. Alakazam

    Ah man, Alakazam is one of my all time favorites! I remember when I first started playing competitively and saw that it was UU (back in the good ol' D/P days) and I was kind of mad. But then I realized that it just meant I could use his MIGHTY POWER on the lower tiers :D Anyway, the set I...
  7. Lock n' Load

    Thank you all for your suggestions. Since two of those suggestions say to replace Haxorus for 'X', I'll have to try them out seperately and see who works better for me. I brought my team here because I put a lot of thought into it but needed some fresh 'eyes', so to speak. Thank you all for the...
  8. Lock n' Load

    This is my first RMT thread, so please cut me a little slack if it's not completely perfect :D I start most of builds off with with one key goal: What are OU's current threats and how do I effectively shut them down. Sounds difficult? It is. It's darn near impossible to counter every OU...

  10. National Pokemon Association- Player's Signup

    Well, thank you :D I would love to be apart of your team! edit: I would like to make a last minute change to my submission: I don't think I can wrap my brain around the JAA metagame after all. I'll still play the rest of the them, though. Thanks in advance, and I'm sorry for any inconvenience.
  11. National Pokemon Association- Player's Signup

    I'd love to try my hand at all of the metagames, but I have the most experience with 4th and 5th gen. I have no Pokemon battling legacy, VGC or otherwise, but that's one reason I want to participate in this. I'm not bad or anything, I'm just unknown to the community. The main thing that sets...
  12. The Rotation Battle Metagame (GBU)

    I myself have found it difficult to find a Rotation Battle on the GBU. That really sucks because I love Rotation Battles. As it was mentioned before, they provide an entirely new depth to battles and play out so differently than traditional singles matches. Anyway, back on subject, Rotation...
  13. General Weather

    As far as Wi-Fi weather goes, I agree with what you're saying about Sun being effective due to the amount of team slots being reserved for Sand/Rain counters. The Sun team that I've used the most with some success is Ninetales/Jumpluff/Heatran. Now if only every player wouldn't ragequit every...
