95 Atk even at +1 is awful (specially if you use a non-stab spread, the +1 acts like a fake STAB boost) and 105 Spe means Gross and Mence get to kill you for free unless you run Choice Scarf which makes you deadweight the moment you pick one option. Primeape is bad, period. There's no way for...

Can we even use Kantonian Raichu? How do you even get him?

Tornadus-Incarnate is a super valuable support, specially for rain teams as it allows Tailwind and manual rain while also having offensive power in the form of Hurricane. It still suffers from 4 slot restrictions as the thing wants to have Taunt, Heat Wave, Hurricane, Tailwind and Rain Dance on...

It's probable we'll see VGC'15 on steroids (hey I guess I'm relevant again lul) so consider that, given the formula Gamefreak ALWAYS pulls out since gen 5 we'll see the weaker legendaries combined with the Tapus, which is pretty much the current BSD metagame atm. Now, while it is unhealthy to...

Talonflame has a very nice niche but the 126 Spe + the actual lack of offensive power outside of Supersonic Skystrike is pretty ehhhh. Specially given that all the threats pretty much either survives and revenges Talon or straight up doesn't care about it. There are better Tailwind users out there

My spread was an odds management kind of spread. It minimizes the chances of a 252+ Landorus-T that outspeeds me beating Rotom-H 1v1 by a significant amount (252+ Atk Landorus-T Rock Slide vs. 252 HP / 20 Def Rotom-H: 70-84 (44.5 - 53.5%) -- 27.7% chance to 2HKO) while also allowing it to beat...

Alright. I labbed quite a bit with Rotom-H, and now I'm ready to make my nomination. I nominate Rotom-H from B- to B+ I know this may sound a bit radical, but offensive Rotom-H is an incredible Pokemon with a lot of potential, and has no business staying in B-, and these are the reasons...

Scheduled for tomorrow at.... Italian afternoon? I'll report back inmediatly

I'm really looking forward to this! However, keep this in mind: Flat Rules DO allow Pentagon mons since Battle Spot Doubles does allow them. I'd be a bit more specific in order to not confuse newer players trying to get into VGC. I know by now most should know the rules yet I believe it is...

Confirming 1-2 loss against Level 56. Ggs

Calling activity since my opponent hasn't even bothered on replying to me after we attempted to play.

If the tag's for activity, replied weeks ago saying I won 2-1

Won 2-1 over Pohjis. GG

Hello! This is Steven Stone in his first RMT in quite a while. This time, I'm not going to cover a VGC team like I normally do, but I'll show you a BSD team instead that could potentially help me next year if VGC goes with its natural path. Without further ado, let's see what I brought you this...

Opponent gave me the win and will be dropping the tournament... Thank god top cut isn't resistance-based, otherwise all these drops would hurt
