Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
I had a brief conversation over discord with zee about this idea but wanted to mention it here - adding more format slots. I too hope there is more interest this time, but the number of additional signups required to roster 2 additional teams might not happen. Adding 2 more formats and expanding...
Seconding Radio's suggestion to drop 2015 for 2014. I can only speak to my experience in the previous two leagues, but I've yet to have a dedicated 2015 player (nor someone who wanted to be). There were a few people who said they would be okay with playing it but it was seldom their first...
Thanks for gathering and posting some of these. I hope to see us add some more of these as people move onto other teams or stop playing a particular team.
I'll try and explain the EV spreads on my paste, as they're all particularly crafted and I think information sharing is good for the...
Thank you for the succinct writeup and preview, Kristian.
I would like to reiterate that most people incorrectly think of 2011 as being a format dominated by the same small handful of pokemon. (I've seen several people who didn't play the format natively say that only ten pokemon are even...
won 2-0 ggs again PHB. Thank you leoperi for hosting and RoA staff for featuring 2013. Hope we get to vote on other older VGC metas in the future.

Oh I'm sorry if it came across that I thought it was a bad thing. I only played 2013 so I couldn't have been more content. I thought it was great y'all are doing a great job :row:
I only mentioned it to argue in favor of rotating formats.
I only participate in the classics league, but I would love to see some of the formats shift for next time. Six of the eight formats were repeats, but that is probably reflective of how people feel about those formats and not wanting to change too many things to a new team tour. I think a...
With the 2013 ladder over, I wanted to share the team that Radio Free C-Side and I piloted to tremendous success on the ladder. At one point we held 4 of the top 10 ladder spots (1, 5, 9, & 10), and ended the month holding #1 overall (1479) and #10 overall (1418), with two other accounts in the...

We’re 2013 players, of course we write warstories.
I had a lot of fun playing in the most recent Classics League in the 2013 slot and I thought that Jun and I did a lot of experimenting with unconventional Pokemon that piqued people’s interest so I wanted to take some time to talk about the...
