Should I keep this Zekrom? Been resetting the game off-and-on for weeks trying to get a good spread. Nature: Unknown (but definitely neutral) HP: 20-21 Atk: 30-31 Def: 23-24 SpA: 18-19 SpD: 20-21 Spd: 30-31

Eesh...yeah. The odds of getting two random 30/31s are pretty low...combining that with an appropriate nature = yee gads! Thanks for the advice, Misty! I appreciate it.

Thanks! Out of curiousity, what would you say is a good IV spread to shoot for? Should I try to keep going until all the IVs are 20+, or is that too much to hope for?

Hey all! I've been soft-resetting my White version for three or four days now, at least, trying to get a decently-IVed Zekrom. The one that I just got I'm tempted to keep, just because I'm really getting tired of soft-resetting for so long and not moving on with the game. Here's the info...

I NEVER said that mutations don't happen, but to take your example, if a mutation causes me to have an extra toe, guess what? The information for that toe was already there, it just got duplicated by mistake. If I end up with slightly more facial hair, guess what? The coding for the facial hair...

Look! I can quote articles sympathetic to my argument, also! And besides, evolution is not so simple as a "trial-and-error" process. I'd be very interested to see if you could name a single modern case where a mutation within a genome ADDED to a creature's genetic information. For...

Just a note that I want to stick in here: How is it any more or less "logical" to believe in the existence of a Creator Diety than it is to believe that every single natural law that we know of aligned in such an inherently perfect way that life as we know it exists? There are a number of...

I showed this thread to my wife, and though we both are strongly Christian, she's much more eloquent about putting things in a more concise, readable way than am I. Here's what she said to me (in an email from her work): "God isn’t fair… He’s just. God doesn’t operate within our rules. We...

Hey all! This is an expanded version of my first pokémon team designed for the competitive battling scene; I've changed some moves, added EVs, just some general editing and stuff. Please let me know what you think! Infernape @ Life Orb Trait: Blaze EVs: 48 Atk / 232 SpAtk / 228 Spd Nature...

If the Gyroomer isn't a good idea for a moveset on this particular Bronzong, how about this: Bronzong @ Leftovers Relaxed Levitate - Gyro Ball - Hypnosis - Earthquake - Stealth Rock

So do you think that I should switch Curse and Trick Room out for two other moves? If so, would you mind suggesting some?

Hey all! This is my first post on Smogon, even though I've been coming here for a while...anyway, I've been trying to get this team and their movesets working for a while now, and I'd like to see what you guys think. Also, this will be the first time that I've ever designed a team for the...
