Won't be able to join unfortunately, but I would love to do replay analysis in post!

This isn't wrong if you approach the games as RPGs, but basically these challenge games are retooled to not actually function as RPGs anymore. They're made into something I'd best compare to a strategy game rogue like. In that framework, the games are succeeding at what they're being designed to...

Having my hands in many different pools of pokemon player communities has given me the absolute worst brainworms about IVs as a mechanic. So many people (or a very loud vocal minority at least) are incredibly confident that they're totally useless relics of game design, and that nobody really...

For this... you gotta outline more details. When it's happening and where it's being hosted at the very least. I can't commit to joining without a timeline. Could it be a distinct thread? I also think it might be more productive to do a standard tiered draft board format rather than the style...

I forgot to vote in this, I had my votes on Frosmoth-M and Golduck-X so I guess that works out. (Though Volt Tackle on Golduck-X is kind of a lot I think, Zing Zap / Supercell should be fine)

Distribution Ideas for a few moves that weren't totally clarified New Mon Concept Relevant Moves: Icicle Spear, Ice Shard, Last Respects, Shadow Sneak, Spirit Break, Resonance, Icy Wind, Snarl, Roost, Parting Shot, Taunt, Cosmic Power, Will-O-Wisp, Pain Split This is definitely a...

Avalanche Buff: Yes Chip Away Buff: Yes False Swipe Buff: No Metronome Distribution: Abstain Pretty negative on this batch but that more speaks to how thoroughly the vanilla games fill out niches than anything.

My votes are for Ubertrainer's Solastor and Lullux PalpitoadChamp's Possmortem and Cashatrew

I do think a draft / tournament follow up would be very fun, but in the meantime I also just want to run more games of this format, and I'm not quite sure of the best way to do that. I can try just loitering on dh2 a bit more I suppose, but in the meantime I'll also accept DMs if anyone wants to...

The ground types in FRLG bit is also crazy because it means that any Ground type obtained after Lt. Surge does not have a single strong match-up against an important boss for the remainder of the game, aside from a very unstable Blaine (not a single ground type in Kanto can take a Fire Blast...

My vote is for BlueRay's submission, Dukion. Wizareetin: Conductive Spell has no effect vs airborne targets Keisberg: Eternal Ice provides immunities from Fire + Water Magikite: Nerf Flying Dive to 55 BP + Remove Earthquake Orbeetle: Remove Hypnosis, make Psychic types immune to Hypnosis...

I don't know if I agree with this entirely? With complaints of game speed, I definitely understand - it's pretty grueling to play sessions of these games when you start to feel how long each turn takes and track how many loops the battle theme has done in fights that take place before you leave...

Go for it, I'd say. I do sort of like the soft rule that Levitate remains a mono-ability where it exists but we've already got Flygon with Tinted Lens. I will also say that it does feel a bit weird to design a new mon with respect to the meta without having playtested the results of recent...

I will message her. I did apply for Sitrus but I wasn't totally certain of my schedule before the draft so I didn't advertise myself too much. Now I've got the itch to look at this format again and not too many ways to scratch it outside silly statistics like this. This is basically incomplete...

Is there a way to view draft boards / teams from Smogon Draft III? I want to make a Reg F overview / team retrospective but all the documents are privated at the moment so I can't double check information.
