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 got a little fed up with not having one, so I made a [very bad] parser for the home page that spits out a [very bad] RSS file with the headline news.

Feel free to make suggestions/additions/fixes/whatever, just...
I realize this thread is super old, but I still feel this is a great suggestion that should be implemented.
Just thought I'd bump it rather than make a brand new thread...
Seriously though, RSS would be kick ass. Please? :D
After muddling around with the above posts for a while, I've come up with another great use for these doodads. After doing a reverse calculation like the one above, you now know the target's Attack stat range, meaning you can calculate the respective Strengths of several common moves on that...
I can't say I ever envisioned it being used for that, but I suppose that it could be. That would be pretty neat, to be honest.
Using those stats, the strength of Draco Meteor would have to be 658, which means that the SpA of the Latias would have to be between 373 and 439, which is out of...
Yeah - I was pretty sure that most people familiar with the damage formula/mechanics would have realized defensive potential could be found by simply multiplying health and defense (*cough* Shuckle's first strategy *cough*), but I'd never seen anyone try to do the attacking counterpart, and...
Now that you put it that way, that's exactly how I had it in mind as well, ArcticxWolf :D
It let's you compare between moves, walls, etc. in addition providing a quick damage estimate without having to whip the trusty damage calculator. I was slightly preoccupied when I responded to supermarth64 >_>
*shrug* I suppose so. I guess I designed it more for comparisons than anything else, and the damage estimations was just a sweet byproduct that slipped in. I suppose I also had intent to make an applet or web site where you could just input a Pokemon's shorthand notation and get a quick report...
Hello!
I've created a new (I think/hope) method for quickly calculating damage or comparing the relative defenses/attacking powers of various Pokemon. Recently, I read through Dragontamer's AttackTiers & DefenseTiers and SkarmCents & BlissCents and thought perhaps I could address some of the...
