How did you choose your name? What do you think are good and bad ideas fo names? Not individually, but ideas in general. Do you think that keeping only one name for all the forums you go to helps at all? I don't know if I have to show you guys which names are really stupid... Aeolus has some...

This was in my sent PM folder. *Puts hand on Bible* I commit to the tournament with all of the responsibilities and rewards that come with doing that. I'll be giving out my Jolly Floatzel, as it's definitely one of my best Pokemon, and it might also encourage Floatzel use. :3...

I honestly don't care about prizes; it's about time the wifi board actually did some battling. And I don't mind giving away a Pokemon if I win, or getting a junky one if I lose. But the point is, if the loser getting a Pokemon is "incentive" for completing a battle, why is it allowed to be...

But if the winner gives out Pokemon that won't be "valuable" to the person receiving (like someone giving a Vaporeon to forbidden), then that's not incentive at all. I think this causes more problems than it prevents.

I understand that running a tournament is tough, I don't mean to put any pressure on you at all. Good luck with the rest! Also, I love the Pokemon puns. :3

I love you so much! :D I'd like to join. I don't like the idea of giving one of my Pokemon to someone who just lost to me (seems like it should be the other way around, though I'm not requesting that). If people aren't competent enough to get their matches done (without a good reason), they...

Anyone else think 5:10 in the first video was a little weird...? Nice to read this, I hope more people do these for the NYC one, and I hope they take lots of pictures. :P

Meh... this makes me wish Nintendo cared about Canada. :P I really enjoyed that.

Yeah, so then I'd be correct. So I don't think this can be used as a usage list, it's just sort of a notice to new/average players, "use these Pokemon a bit more". Or something.

I'm confused about what these stats mean, and how they can be applied. Let's say Colin took the usage information from only the top 50 Shoddy battlers (assume those are the "expert" players). That would differ from the "expert" usage list, correct? The way this list was calculated, it only...

For those who say video games/thinking about video games, that's probably wrong. My doctor once asked me about my gaming habits (he's a little too personal :|), and gave me a schpeil on how games were terrible stimulants, and contributed to difficulty getting to sleep, after I told him that I...

More like Granny Smith vs. Spartan (not the people, the apples :P). The extra movepool Dragonite has isn't worth much on a Specs set, as Empoleon isn't common enough to warrant a moveslot. Focus Punch seems nice, but Dragonite doesn't effectively lure out Blissey (it's not like Salamence can't...

Deoxys-S can be countered, but that alone isn't a reason for it to stay in OU; Kyogre can be countered by BL Pokemon (Shedinja and possibly Ludicolo). I don't like how it generally ruins offensive teams, how it often outdoes other bulky+fast Pokemon (as it can easily do a bulky spread if it...

I am for cartridge consistent legendary IVs, since I like the idea of simulating the games as closely as possible. And that's not persnickety or over overparticular. A few points higher than the game allows could mean a win or a loss where that wouldn't have happened on the DS. A few points...

A universal trapper (unlike Dugtrio, Magnezone) that can come in easily (unlike Dugtrio, most Pursuiters) can generally take out one Pokemon of it's choice. The greater danger, in my opinion, is with the combination of trapping and Encore. That leads to combinations with Dugtrio, setups, and...
