Here on turn 9 opposing entei did 274 dmg to my quaqsire. As this is a gen 4 random battle game, we can know the entei set for a fact. A dmg roll of 274 should not be possible. Either the calculator or showdown is doing something wrong here. Replay in question...

I know, just being silly while reporting it

Got a set up sweeper Lucario with Justified and no physical attacks. Given that the set always generates only special attacks, it should always have steadfast or inner focus. Fake out immunity is much better than taking more dmg from confusion.

Tldr pls BAN Hi Im a casual floating in the 1600 to 1900 range. I know Im not the most skilled ranbattler but I think that is sort of the point. Ranbats is by its very nature the most random metagame and thus I dont think it needs to or can be as balanced as the other metagames and casual fun...

if you actually READ THE GOD DAMN RULES, you would know that those removed post broke the rules and in fact should be removed. Personally I'm expecting Giratina-O to not just completely destroy everything in its path shockingly enough. It will be a very strong pokemon in OU ladder, that much is...

The scizor can barely not be 2HKO'd by mega garde's focus blast with no rocks and has 90% change to 2hko metagross mega after rocks w/ knock off. Its not much but i really needed something for both of them Do note however Im currently using the template made by Bluwig

(does this technically count as bump, regardless of my intentions?) Interesting changes there, thank you. I have personally not experienced much issues with stall, but I am the first one to admit that has more to do with me simply not seeing them that often and preparing for such would obviously...

So yeah, I got back from hiatus some time ago, made team using some of my old favorites from time before Aegislash ban and started laddering. I think I'm starting to reach the limits of where my current understanding of metagame and team building can take me so I figured you guys could help me...

Hi guys, got back from 8 month (or something like that) hiatus from showdown and I figured the fastest way to get back in the groove is by asking for help This team made using some of my old favorites with whatever seemed to fill the gabs. I suppose the end goal of this team is balanced or...

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-100655314 Just me trying to figure what the meta is and what the hell am I doing. I won and by fairly high margin but I feel it was way more because of my opponent being awful than anything else. I would like to hear feedback on how I could have improved my...

Quick look to usage statistics would imply any of Pinsir/Clefable/Medicham/Gardevoir/Sylveon/Azumarill/Venusaur/Togekiss/Grandbull/Mawile/Slurpuff/Talonflame at least check the stantard Drain/Mach/Knock/IceP AV set, KOing or forcing conkelderp to switch 75-90% of times.

I just felt having full team of frail sweepers would end up causing issues against stall and some walls. The fact that burn halfs physical damage also helps to combat the issues of frailness.

I might try Sash on Aero but I am highly questioning need of it on something this fast, especially when majority of time it is not leading. I tried Ice Shard over Fake Out but found the damage not stellar enough and most things. Things I want Weavile to kill are either counter food or slow...

Just a team I made. My experience is mostly from Gen 4 UU so I wouldn't mind some help from those who know gen 5. The team is rather solid but there is always room for second opinions Weavile (F) @ Focus Sash Trait: Pickpocket EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP Jolly Nature - Fake Out - Pursuit -...
