  • Man. :/
    We keep missing each other.
    I've got to take a shower, then head to Church music practice. I'll be home in around...3 hours and I'll be on IRC.
    Hi, I'm one of the winners of Shella's giveaway, please send me a VM when you can give me the prize. Thank you ^^
    One more thing. You can clone right? If not, I'll have to trade 7 copies to you, 6 for the winners, and 1 for yourself. ;)
    Hey, I can't seem to catch you when you're on. Please VM me when you get this and I'll try to stay near my computer.
    Hi Gallade, you've been selected as a distributor for my giveaway! ^.^ Please tell me when you are free to trade, as well as your time zone! Thanks!
    Summary: Will this replace Swampert in OU? No. But there are LOTS of Swamperts on this forum, and 0 Gastrodons.
    When switching into Boiling Water, Gastrodon > Swampert in 3 ways - (a) takes no damage, (b) raises sp. attack, and (c) Swampert can be burned into uselessness - burn doesn't do jack squat to this.
    IVS: 31/31/31/31/31/31 - Flawless. You MIGHT want to opt for a lesser Hidden Power IV set for coverage here, but with Recover/EarthPower/IceBeam OR Blizzard/BoilingWater OR Muddy Water OR Surf, it's movepool is pretty much determined. Replacing Recover with, say Hidden Power... grass... doesn't seem worth settling for less than flawless IVs.

    PS - I've worked myself up into a frenzy - if you pass on this, please let me know and I'll approach MeGaMaN X or ObviousEnd or another RNGer about it.
    Just in case your "giveaway" thread gets mod-jacked, here's my suggestion:
    (Bold, Modest, or Timid) Gastrodon (female, shiny if possible, w/ Storm Drain)
    Rationale:
    * Confirmed Storm Drain now give immunity to Water attacks as well as a SpAttk boost upon being hit with a Water move. (jumpluff)
    * http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/gastrodon
    * Boiling Water (G5) is an amazing move.
    * Relaxed is possible if you want (weak) EQs, although Earth Power (G4 tutor) are both plausible replacements (that do more w/ the storm drain bonus).
    * Variation - you can choose to do the west or east version, thus allowing for asthetic appeal in addition to awesomeness.
    * Immune to electricity, weak x4 to grass (and only grass!), w/ Ice Beam can probably take out it's main counters.
