Vivillon doesn't have a 4x weakness to Ice! Also I think if you tried it you'd see that it's pretty useful.

I did some calculations for you guys: 4 SpA Vivillon Hidden Power Rock vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Mega Charizard Y: 144-172 (48.3 - 57.7%) -- 90.6% chance to 2HKO 252 SpA Vivillon Hidden Power Rock vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Mega Charizard Y: 180-216 (60.4 - 72.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO 4 SpA Vivillon Hidden Power...

I'm not sure if that would be a good idea for a Scarf - it might work one time, but I doubt the opponent would fall for it again after the first time.

Overview ######## Vivillon was viewed as another sub-mediocre Bug Pokemon, another Beedrill, Dustox, (Metapod ...) until people found out about its Compound Eyes + Hurricane + Sleeping Powder maneuver. It also has one more viable use, one that could also be shared with Butterfree. However...

Name, move, ability, item, nature, and EVs aren't in a sentence while you describe your set, so they should be capitalized. (I understand how difficult to understand, so here's an example.) name Name: Death move Move 1: Sucker Punch move Move 2: Flamethrower move Move 3: Dark Pulse move Move...

Actually what if Swift Swim could only be banned for Pokémon that are also Water-type? That was really the whole problem with it-Pokémon were moving first and getting boosted STAB attacks. That change could bring Pokémon like Armaldo and Beartic up a notch while stopping the Kingdra crisis from...

Carnivine would be very good if it got a bit more Speed - it has access to Swords Dance and Power Whip. Also, a bit more HP could help it to create a Leech Seed stall, one of my favorite tactics. Also, editing the critical hit ratios for some moves (like Drill Run, Cross Poison, and Night...

Has anyone taken Vivillon? If not, I'll reserve it. EDIT: Nevermind, Birkal has it :(

I first used this set under the name "Rocket Giovanni," and it ended up with huge popularity before long in 1v1. Persian (M) @ Normal Gem Ability: Technician EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature - Fake Out - Hypnosis - Return - Thief Back when I was obsessed with role-playing, I took it...

Snorlax could be a pretty great wall against Mega-Gengar. With Snorlax's good Special Defense, it can most likely survive a powerful Focus Blast and return for some damage against Mega Gengar with Crunch. Also, for Gardevoir Will-o-Wisp will make her a better Physical wall as well as a Special...

It's a really interesting team, (I especially like the Trevenant Harvest + Sitrus Berry stall ;D,) But do you think It's a bit unbalanced with 3 Ghosts? It would be interesting to see what would happen if Dusclops was replaced by Gardevoir, because I know it can use Pain Split as well as...

That's true, I was being unfair. You were just saying your idea, and I attacked you. :( Sorry.

It's true that I only said one example, but that doesn't preclude the fact that your set is a bit useless. If you go on Showdown and win some battles with your set, send me a message with your replays and you'll have proven that a set like that might actually work. P.S. Serperior is actually...

If a Sableye came in on you and Taunted Serperior, he's gone. The Contrary Leaf Storm is more effective and helpful.

Yeah, that seems fair. I'll edit that! :D

Hello! I'm new here to Smogon, and recently I posted a rather irrelevant thread to the Smog Articles thread. Now, I've bought my copy of the game and have been testing out my set against foes on WiFi from my 3DS, so these actually have been tested. Quilladin Evo-Stall: Quilladin @ Eviolite...

.....And of course I don't know how to delete things.

I'm sorry about how behind I am. So embarrassing. I'll delete this one and when I have all of the information, I'll try and write a an article

Introduction With every new Generation, things are bound to change. New Pokémon, new items, new mechanics: new metagames. In the last Smog issue, there was an article about Alakazam, for instance. It talked about all of this Pokémon's ups and downs, (it has quite a lot of them,) and where he...
