No weather, not any in-battle weather anyway. I'm on Route 227, south of Stark Mountain, which does have a falling soot effect in the field... but this is where I RNG'd for my other shinies so I know that isn't having any effect.

Posting this again because I didn't get much of a response last time. My ID/SID are both correct (I've re-checked them both a million times) and I'm not landing on any other apps while switching around on the Poketch. I'm either monumentally retarded or something is going wrong with game/my RNG...

I've successfully RNG'd for Shiny Eggs in my Platinum before, using Smogon's guide here. However, that was a while ago, and having just come back to it I've found that I can no longer get it to work at all. Just to clarify, I'm only aiming for a shiny egg. Everything else is irrelevant at...

No weather condition, I'm catching on the route just south of Stark Mountain. Same spot I've always caught when RNG'ing for shinies. I don't think delay is actually important for hatching a shiny Pokemon (I'm not going for any specific IVs, which is when I think delays become important). As...

Hey guys. I've all of a sudden started having trouble hatching Shiny eggs in my Platinum so I thought I'd come here for help. I have, in the past, hatched several different shiny Pokemon on this cart using the RNG method, so I have been successful with it and I do understand what to do. However...

kind of amusing that you only posted your first logs a few pages ago (after participating without them for nearly 60 pages) and now you're suddenly trying to use the "you guys are just THEORYMONNING GOSH its obvious that you're not playing pokemon and i am" line. not that i want to discourage...

yes no well, "yes" in the same sense that "Gastrodon is a better Pokemon than Luvdisc, therefore Gastrodon is closer to Ubers than Luvdisc", but that's a rather asinine point to be making

Oh please. Your team isn't necessarily better than, or even utilized more efficiently, than mine. Again, these are your own insertions that dishonestly represent what I've said. Just because Team A beats Team B doesn't mean anything about Team A is "better" in the general sense of the word, it...

Are you advocating that, with unlimited time, it would be in our best interests to test everything in OU (at least)? I'm under the impression that we only test things that have a debatably negative impact on the health of the metagame. Stuff like Garchomp, Latias and Skymin ultimately proved...

Why would we do that?

Pokemon do become un-banned, sure. Latias was unbanned for a little while just recently (it didn't last, but still). Of course what might happen in Gen 5 will not affect Salamence's tiering in Gen 4.

I've found that it just makes it... different. Personally, I don't find Suspect any better or worse than Standard, and it's kind of hard to compare them in a "which is better" kind of way given just how much varies between them. I think if anyone wants to really say that Standard is "worse"...

... You quoted me. Was I not supposed to think you were talking to me? I'm not sure you understand how forums work. SR is a huge issue, yes. It's a common battle condition that needs to be factored in to any decision about Salamence's tiering. But at no point have I suggested that "SR should be...

As soon as I realised that your very first rebuttal was again arguing a point that I didn't make, I just gave up and didn't bother with the rest. Follow that strand of the debate backwards and see where it started; You'll realise that your response is irrelevant.

I never said it was, so... what's your point? It's not a "well played feint" if the opponent Swampert just uses Ice Beam and kills him. It's a complete risk that the Salamence player has no control over; He has to hope that the Swampert takes the bait, and if he doesn't, Salamence is fucked...
