    Thanks for the clarifications regarding Thick Fat and Shock Wave's accuracy, I do want to clarify a few things: I agree that Swampert's Earthquake can be solid considering its good attack and there are very few trainers with mons that resist or are immune to Earthquake. However, when I was...

    Is there a way to disable getting alerts? By that I mean when you post a message onto a thread, can you stop getting notifications on anyone (not a specific person) responding to your message or reacting to your post?

    As much as I love using Swampert in a Pokémon Emerald playthrough, being that it’s my favourite water starter (if not my favourite starter), I will say that it can be overhyped, though I can definitely understand why. Water/Ground typing is an incredible typing as it grants immunity to...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    I'm not a fan of accuracy lowering moves, since there aren't many common ways to counter their strategy outside of items. Lt Surge's Raichu can be one of the few exceptions where using double team is ok, but that's because any ground type would deal swiftly against it. It's problem where the...

    I agree that switch mode would make it more challenging; part of Legends ZA's difficulty is that it doesn't give us time to switch mons mid-fight, so we have to plan how to pivot safely. If I'm offering my cents on why the AI wouldn't prioritise switching, maybe it's because it might prove more...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    I do agree that that a strategy against evasiveness could be reasonably handled if the mons themselves weak. For example, Grant's Amura could be annoying with Thunder Wave and Rock Tomb, and Tyrunt's Stomp. However, it can be handled in time because they're weak defensively, like how both of...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    I dunno whether this is a common annoyance since I started playing Pokemon in Gen 6, but I found it annoying on how the early gens (Gen 1-4) used cheesy strats in their boss battles: Trying to take on Clair's Kingdra, a mon that has an excellent dual typing and good BST? She has smokescreen to...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    One thing that annoys me is that the VS Recorder is not available from SWSH, which lets you record online battles directly. I've used it a bit when I played USUM, and I took it for granted, as I could have used it to learn from my previous mistakes. It wasn't perfect, as any videos before...

    Lifestyle physical health/fitness thread

    Update: I realise that taking stairs up to the 11th floor is much tougher than I imagined to be. I walked up to the 5th or 6th floor and my legs were about to give in. And this was hours after my lunch, without carrying my backpack. I was thinking to just take the stairs halfway and then take...

    I think Alder is one of my favourite champions, and definitely one of the most unique ones. What I like about him is that he isn't shown as a champion of strength compared to most champions, because he's not supposed to be. He's a man who was unsure about his purpose after he lost his Volcarona...

    Lifestyle physical health/fitness thread

    I realised that I don't put butter on my toast, it's Margarine, which is different. That being said, you are right, the butter does have less sugar compared to strawberrry jam. I also forgot to mention that I may consider replacing my hot chocolate (when I work from the office) with a berry...

    Lifestyle physical health/fitness thread

    I'm struggling out on finding the best kind of foods (mainly Lunch and Dinner) that would be healthy and give sufficient protein on a weekly basis. I think it can come down to a few problems: I don't know on how to keep track of the amount of calories and protein I intake. I believe I know how...

    I added the image onto ibb.co, took the image url, but it only pasted the link. When I mentioned inserting an image onto a Smogon message, I mean something like this:

    Smogon Simple Questions Thread

    I'm having a problem with inserting images into a message in a Smogon thread like this one. The issue is that when I insert an image into a message, it also automatically comes off as an attachment file. Sometimes I don't want the attachment, but when I delete the attachment it also deletes the...
