So it looks like I won't be voting in the suspect test, but I'm playing the ladder to enjoy the time without Aegislash around. I'm not particularly fond of facing the pokemon, but I don't see any reason to ban him. He's no more over-centralizing than Talonflame and he's certainly not as powerful...

What do you think about Excadrill in place of Latias/Zapdos? It adds even more offensive presence than Zapdos, an electric IMMUNITY to aid with Politoed/Crawdaunt/Kabutops/Tornadus-T, offers an answer to sand teams (Which honestly bug me), has Rapid Spin so you're not losing hazard coverage, and...

I tried this team out on the ladder and noticed a glaring weakness to the Fairy type, and Latias was very hit or miss for me. It was alright to check (Mega) Venusaur, but only if it was at ~70% health (And Venusaur is already covered by Tornadus anyway). I think I'll try the Zapdos switch and...

Had a weird incident with Trick. Pretty sure a Choice Scarf Garchomp always moves before a Rotom, but Trick happened first even though it has a speed priority of 0. Observe: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-138067266

Anyone have a Vullaby spitback with egg moves and bold nature? I can offer a plethora of growlithe (close combat, morning sun), bulbasaur (ingrain, giga drain), charmander (dragon dance, dragon pulse), marill (superpower, belly drum, aqua jet), larvesta, vulpix, poliwag (encore), and ferroseed...

Well, battling on my phone is fine, but you can't chat. I don't chat much, but I feel sleazy not saying at least gg. However, team building is a huuuge chore. Anyway, I saw a "get the iPhone app" button and got over-excited. It was an ad. XD

Just curious, what is the best way to play Showdown on mobile Android devices?

I see a lot of people saying they're "breeding" stealth rock skarmory in gen six, which doesn't make much sense to me. Do the tutor moves count as egg moves? I was under the impression they didn't, but correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm on break at work. I'll be free in about two and a half hours after this
