  1. Haxorus

    Death to Floating Bell Except it will have to contend with Mold Breaker... goodbye immunity!
  2. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer (Mark 3)

    Why are the likes of Arceus banned from Ubers?
  3. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer (Mark 3)

    I know how to clear the chat backlog, and I filtered out the notices, but is there a way to shut off the main chat window altogether? (I just want to find battles sometimes)
  4. US Arceus at Toys 'R Us/Australian Arceus at EB Games - Both going on now

    Thanks for the clarification guys, I suppose I'll be holding off... again.
  5. US Arceus at Toys 'R Us/Australian Arceus at EB Games - Both going on now

    Not Quite Unfortunately not, since I still have yet to nab the Darkrai (first of the now 3 cards I have) I seem to get that first, then Deoxys, followed by Arceus... unless there is a way to change the ordering that is.
  6. US Arceus at Toys 'R Us/Australian Arceus at EB Games - Both going on now

    Hey everyone, I've been away from playing for a while, and I can't remember... Since I have two previous Mystery Gifts, is there a way to change the "ordering" so I can simply get Arceus first? I say this since I want to hold of SRing for the other two for now (haven't dabbled in this RNG stuff...
  7. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer - mark 14

    So I hear that Scizor is supposedly much better in Platinum... Is it because of Bullet Punch, or some combination moveset?
  8. Moving soon

    I figure this is a good place to ask this, but if not, then feel free to correct me. I had not been to smogon in a while prior to the server move, and now it seems my old trade thread didn't make it (or is no more). So, on to my question: is there any way to recover the text? I kept most of my...
  9. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer - mark 9

    I haven't been to smogon in a while, and since I see no announcement concerning my question, I figured this is a good place to ask: why has the search function been disabled on the forums (bandwidth?) and is this permanent? I would search for a related topic but...oh crap, I can't...
  10. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer - mark 8

    Cool, thanks! Now, where are the best spots for 2v2 ingame (a la vs seeker)? Also, is it possible to get encore + helping hand on Jumpluff (if so, how)?
  11. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer - mark 8

    Two things: Does trouble seed work on your partner in 2v2? and If you send out a pokemon with a power item attached in a random battle and then switch to something else to do the fighting (faint opponent), does the first pokemon still receive the bonus EVs (i.e. fight bidoof with HP power...
  12. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer - mark 7 (read first post)

    When a pokemon is confused, how is the self-inflicted damage calculated (hurt itself in the confusion)? Is it simply the selected move's base power against the pokemon's defensive stat? Are STAB and type weakness factored in? BTW, it was Serebii's lack of inclusion in the status article that...
  13. Your Favourite/Best/Weirdest Nicknames.

    I prefer badass nicknames over silly ones: Garchomp - Warhammer (hammerhead reference) Gliscor - Scar Tyranitar - Tyrant Porygon-Z - Phenomenon Milotic - Leviathan Rhyperior - Ganon (looks like dorf) *edit* I too need some nickname ideas, particularly for Starmie and Uxie...
  14. Ask a Simple Question, Get a Simple Answer mark 6 (read 1st post)

    As far as I know the faster pokemon goes first. BTW: I sent you a PM...
  15. Ask a Simple Question, Get a Simple Answer mark 6 (read 1st post)

    ok thanks (forgive my ignorance)
