Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
One more RMT for the road.

To prevent confusion, this isn't for resource purposes. It's more of an open discussion.
Basically I want to see pairings of Pokemon in 3rd Gen that allow a certain kind of synergy between each other (like SkarmBliss) and why. It can be defensive, offensive, a combination of both, or that...

Similar to that other discussion I made on Fire-types.
I was in a random chat where someone mentioned that Grasses generally sucked. While obviously that's incorrect, as I thought about it, they do have specific niches that make them useful, such as resistance to Electric/Water moves (some of...
Raikou @ Leftovers
- Crunch
- Rest
- Sleep Talk
- Thunder
This team doesn't really fend well vs Zapdos, so here's the appropriate counter.
Mewtwo @ Leftovers
- Ice Beam / Fire Blast
- Selfdestruct
- Submission
- Thunder
All-out attacker/suicude bomber. I just need him to put a...
I got bored with my Jolteon team, and attempted to redesign it to use Espeon instead. What I got was something completely different than what I intended.
Ooparts (Forretress) (M) @ Leftovers
- Spikes
- Rapid Spin
- Explosion
- Reflect
Because I'm just dumb enough to lead Spikes vs...
I know how random this looks, but I'm looking for discussion to gather thoughts on Fire-type Pokemon. I was thinking back to when I thought Charizard and Moltres were high profile threats in ADV because teams were unprepared for them. Since Charizard could deal with Blissey, Snorlax and...

I decided to pull an old team, or at least 5 out of 6 of the original (couldn't remember the last slot). The basis of the team, back then, was to use Regice, P2, and Magneton to spread paralysis and get rid of Skarmory so that SD Heracross would have free reign. I'm not comfortable with Thunder...

This is an idea, not an implementation.
Triangles has been fiending for ADV UU lately and I can't imagine he's been finding a variety of the matches he wants (correct me if I'm wrong). That got me thinking a bit of how we could increase activity in the older gens' non-OU tiers. We have...

Welcome to the Tournament of Goodfellas, wise guys. This here will be a single elimination, 3-man teams tournament. Each team member will play one of three tiers: RBY OU, GSC OU, and...
Discussion time!
So I've always liked Heracross, but no matter which gen, I've always had trouble fitting it in to teams or building teams around it. I'd like to use it in a GSC team, however, so I've been thinking about the stipulations that make Heracross useful to a team. What follows is a...
Didn't see a thread about this game, so decided to make one for it.
Persona 4 Arena is a 2D fighting game developed by Arc System Works and includes characters from both the Persona 3 and Persona 4 games.

I was recently linked to a thread inquiring about the legalization of OHKO moves in RBY, and I cringed. The argument of the moves' validity aside, professional Pokemoner/adult video star/part-time bouncer at the Diamond Club, spies, mentioned something after reading it himself, after claiming...
Just posting a team I use when I want to have fun/have trouble building a team/want to test my creativity. I like to come back every now and then to see if I can make improvements to it, but I'd also like some user feedback on it, for once.

I wanted to use Magtrio, because I think I'm so cool for the Magneton set, and I thought I'd also be such a cool guy if I added in PursuitTar as well.
