    hey, i posted some comments on your lum berry exeggutor set, i didn't get to respond to the vm you sent me before but imo you did a pretty decent job on your first analysis :)

    Well, the thing is Blastoise has heavy competition from the other Water-types, Rapid Spin being his only advantage over them (if it didn't have spin Blastoise would be NU worthy). Hitmontop is not the greatest Fighting-type but the cool thing is that aside from guaranteeing spins with Foresight, CC also does some reasonable damage to Froslass and to a lesser extent Mismagius.

    Honestly though, the choice between Hitmontop and Blastoise is all dependent on the team, although both are rather lackluster outside of spinning.

    No idea lol. Most of the battles I've gotten into have all been anti climactic.
    False Sense
    Yes, but now that S.C.O is gone, Smogon just feels so dull now... There just isn't that much to do right now, at least for me.
    False Sense
    Yes, it truly is. So much time and effort put into it, only to have it all destroyed... Well, we had a good time while it lasted, at least.

    [continued] I made this list a while back, before BW2 so it's a little outdated: http://pastebin.com/RSpPeBvH. There are many ways to deal with Arceus-Normal, and if you play smart, it is not difficult to avoid a sweep. Arceus-Normal comes in under very predictable circumstances.

    Hello, I do not value Arceus-Normal as highly as most players. With the right offensive team utilizing hazards, it can very easily set up a late game sweep. However there are other pokemon that do this just as well, but offer more to the team, and 9 times out of 10, I would rather have a different type of Arceus to help the synergy of my team.

    Yea, I get pissed when people say Infernape is a bad Pokemon, and doesn't deserve to be OU.

    Um, I have no idea what you're trying to distinguishly discust my informacy for. In short, I don't know what you're saying.

    (Continued) and aids in sweeping to something like Choice Scarf mence. MixApe works best on sand teams surprisingly since if you do common calcs, most switchs fail 2 live due 2 sand damage stacking up, whichs great gainst canceling Leftovers. Its meant to deal as much damage as possible, not to stay alive

    Infernape with LO is actually strong. It does 80% to defensive Ninetales which is awesome, and MixApe's purpose isn't to sweep but 2 deal as much damage in a short amount of time. latios etc all give it trouble, so Ttar can Pursuit trap all of them. either destroys teams or breaks through defensive cores which common teams have trouble with. completely shatters SkarmBliss Amoonbro ,

    No, on a sand team. Tyranitar removes all its checks. Then it kills stuff. Try using Rotom-W to paralysis stuff faster than it too, the it kills everything like a beast.

    I regret saying this, but Infernape is good. I just used MixApe, OMG, my next team is built around it.

    Actually, I'm slowly getting used to it. The only thing I really don't like is that the actual formatting part of it (colors, fonts, etc.) is really confusing. When I tried to make a thread yesterday, it was tough trying to get it the way I wanted so I gave up. That being said, I'm starting to like the overall design.

    You know, I've always though Dusclops could even be worthy of possibly C-Rank, because it can actually be effective on full stall teams as a defensive spinblocker with Curse or RestTalk sets both being effective on heavy stall. I've actually found it capable of being a legitimate threat.
    (I think the real reason why it was E-Rank before is that Dusclops is one of those Pokemon that gets hated on the masses)

    Oh and speaking of Gardevoir, it's becoming the "jack of all trades, master of none" Psychic-type in NU too. It's really outclassed by both Jynx and Musharna down there, and it does not help that its miserable physical bulk detriments it in NU as well, meaning Primeape and Sawk can still get past it anyways (the drops of Scolipede and Mandibuzz do not help its case either).
