Was hoping to hit triple digits, but my first run ends at 97. I'm sure this team can make it higher, but I might try switching it up next run, dunno yet~ Round 11: G1 - vs lead Tentacruel. Twave as it IBs, so 3 or 4. Flash reveals it's Clear Body as it Mirror Coats. Recover as it MCs again...

Started my first Emerald Battle Tower run and just got the Gold Symbol. My team uses Kommo-o's lead Latias with submenceisop's SubDDMence. The glue holding them together is a Vaporeon, running the same moves as submenceisop's Zapdos. All three were RNGed on Emerald on emu, with the trainer name...

Cheers, all! I've been doin a bit of RNGing in Emerald and was curious what the best mons for Battle Tower singles were. So, I made a list of how often each mon was used in winning streaks and weighted it towards the most successful ones. The points system I used was p simple: 1000+ wins = 5...

Very nice giveaway, cuz. Thanks for taking the time to do it! I could definitely use a flawless Ditto in Gen 8. Home Name: Sorted L18 Male Carkol Most's Ditto

Earthworm is now co-lead of RoA. Congrats, mate ^.^

I definitely considered that but drew the opposite conclusion. Why should Clefable still be UU, Nidoqueen still be NU, and Electivire still be OU in DPP when that hasn't been the case for years? It's fine if that's what most people prefer, but the ability to rectify that should certainly exist...

Articuno definitely deserves a shoutout alongside Cloy and Lap. While Lap will occasionally 2HKO bull with Blizz, it usually won't. Arti's Blizz scores a guaranteed 2HKO (assuming hits), which is over a 15% chance to OHKO factoring crit rate and accuracy. Meanwhile, it takes very similar damage...

Thanks for making this thread, Oggy. We could definitely use some discussion on our old gen lower tiering policy. Old gen OU tiering policy should also get hammered out a bit more, imo. They serve very different functions and our policy regarding them should also be different. Lower Tiers: I...

Yes, it is a more complex solution to a complex problem. It's a surgical way to remove broken elements from an old format without actually banning the Pokemon residing there. If you want to use Ttar or Hippo under this, and you're genuinely worried about the threat of stray Sand Veil users, then...

To be clear, these are not all suggestions I support, just ones that I consider better than this. I would also say doing nothing is both crap (cuz current solution is awful) and better than this. I would most support option 1 on my list. Not super afraid of a ttar test but I would much rather...

Straightforward in that no Pokémon is banned. We're implementing a "complex ban" that is less complex than the current implementation and also than what some other gens have. It's not a hard concept for a beginner to grasp. Of course just banning Sand Veil is a more simple solution, but it has...

You will never please everyone, which is why it's important to be able to actually justify any ban you want to implement. They should be able to stand the test of time. Any ban you make will be challenged some day, probably multiple times, and it's important to have reasonable cause behind it if...

Sorry, I didn't realize Sandshrew was already a legitimate problem, not just a potential one like Froslass in hail. The BW Arena Trap ban was also handled poorly and not a precedent worth following. I don't really see what the extremely small sample size of SPL proves. Can you just explain why...

What's the rationale behind this? If something is broken with Sand Veil, you should really just target that instead of also banning multiple Pokemon that are not broken. If the argument's that the mechanic itself is uncompetitive, Snow Cloak doesn't deserve a pass simply because it's less common.
