This thread is to discuss the viability of the move Nature Power on Pokemon Battle Revolution's Wi-Fi modes. As we know, in D/P's person-to-person battles, Nature Power can only become one move: Tri Attack. In PBR, however, the move that Nature Power becomes varies by arena. Lagoon -- Tri...

I thought it might be a good idea to give this discussion a thread of its own instead of having it clutter up the "Who has PBR?" thread. Apparently, sometime last night a ban was placed on PBR Wi-Fi. No legendary Pokémon of any sort are usable in Random Wi-Fi matches. Personally, I'm...

When you saw this title, what's the first Pokemon that jumped into your mind? I've been reading a lot of analyses of previously UU Pokemon lately and most of them seem to say something along the lines of "with the changes in DP, this may be too good for UU" or "with the changes, this thing will...

I hate Double Team. There are few things more annoying than missing an opponent 7 times in a row while they set up and KO you. But I don't believe it should be banned any longer. Why doesn't it need to be banned? Because in Diamond and Pearl there are so many ways to counter it. But why...

I've been looking at a lot of RMTs lately, and I've noticed something. Almost every team either makes an effort to counter everything on the threat list, or it has a unifying, central strategy, but not both. I hypothesize that it's very difficult to accomplish both of these things. Not only...

EDIT: Well, this has been an educational experience. Thank you all for your helpful comments. Since I cannot delete this thread, I'm just going to request that there be no more posts to it. I've had eoungh abuse and my spirit has been broken. I apologize for wasting everybody's time.

Now, I'm not a NetBattler, so I'm sure there's a perfectly good answer to this question that I'm just not aware of. Why is Toxic preferred to regular poison? I'm taking a look at the threat list on the RMT threads, and none of them seem to be stallers. The ones that are usually have Rest or...

BIG EDIT: For those of you just joining us, I'd like to rephrase my position on why Hidden Power makes Pokémon battles less interesting. This post of mine, #117 in this thread, is what I'd like you to consider when posting. Feel free to read the rest of the thread, but I'm hoping this'll be a...

Well, time for me to take a shot at this whole Rate My Team thing. I agree wholeheartedly with Surgo's "unifying strategy" qualifier. This has been true in double battles since Advance. Hopefully in DP it'll apply more to single battles as well. My team's main themes are Sandstorm and Trick...

I'm new to the community, so I'll apologize now if this question has already been posed. I didn't find it with the search function, but that doesn't mean it wasn't there. I'm a long-time player of Pokémon games and I train teams for competitive play, but I've never played online using...
