  1. Building a Team of Explosives

    I have long since had a desire to make what many would deem a "joke" team, made strictly for fun and kicks -- an team built solely on explosives, on the move "Explosion." In other words, a team where probably four out of six Pokemon's sole purpose on the team was to simply Explode in the...
  2. Back to Action -- New Tankish Team

    Just a new team now that I've returned to Pokemon after a long absence. A little standard in terms of Pokemon, but redeems itself (or so I think) in terms of sets, effort value spreads, and stuff. So far, it's done me very well. Zapdos @ Leftovers Ability: Pressure EVs: 252 HP/180 Def/32...
  3. I've been away from the Pokemon scene -- how has the metagame changed?

    I've been away from the Pokemon scene for about ... well, since around March or April. How has the competitive metagame changed since then? >,> Does anyone still use GrowthTran? =p
  4. POLL: The Greater Success, Syclant vs. Revenankh

    Off-Topic -- I'm still here! Sorry! I've been checking this forum every single day, guys. Don't worry -- I've been keeping up with everything. I've been voting and all -- I just haven't posted in a long while, but I still come here every day. I'm reading all of your discussion, don't...
  5. What kind of Pokemon (type, ability, role, moves, etc.) do you wish existed?

    Just a little topic for discussion. As a plus, it may give us some insight as to what the community considers broken, as well as give us over at the Create-A-Pokemon polls some ideas for the future. Personally, I had always wanted a very defensive fighter with access to reliable recovery. It...
  6. The Deadly Sins -- Sloth, Greed, Lust, Envy, Pride, and Wrath

    The Deadly Sins -- Sloth, Greed, Lust, Envy, Pride, and Wrath Newly Updated, Changes in Red Platinum Changes in Blue Acedia (Suicune) @ Leftovers Ability: Pressure EVs: 252 HP/240 Def/16 SAtk Bold nature (+Def, -Atk) - Calm Mind - Rest - Sleep Talk - Surf Acedia -- apathy and inactivity in...
  7. Where is MixGross in the analysis?

    And, more importantly, where is the set on the forums? >,>
  8. Why is there no mention of Psycho Shift in the Deoxys-D Analysis?

    Some sort of set using Psycho Shift with a Burn Orb, as well as Rest and Sleep Talk, with a fourth move for spiking, attacking, or whatever, could be pretty interesting for 100% accurate burns and transferring sleep.
  9. Why isn't there more attention to the Uber Metagame?

    It really is a lot more interesting and broader than most people give it credit for ... it has loads of possibilities, new sets of non-Uber Pokemon, etc.
  10. A Mew Leading Set

    *Re-bumped, as Mew gets Trick now ^_^* Mew @ Choice Scarf Hasty, Synchronize, 252 HP / 252 Speed / 4 SpDef ~ Explosion ~ Hypnosis ~ Me First ~ Trick The Basics All right, this is a very experimental set, and I haven't been able to truly test this correctly, because Trick is not listed in Mew's...
  11. TogeShift -- A Psycho Shift Togekiss

    The Plan for TogeShift The possibilities with Psycho Shift really span across a new board never before explored before the current generation. Recently, it has been the one thing that made Cresselia unique, set apart from its reputation as "the space duck that does nothing." However, there is...
  12. Let's discuss Substitute -> Stat-up Sweeper Passing

    I have been trying to test this concept for a long while now. It revolved around Vaporeon, an extremely bulky little fellow with the ability to create substitutes of (up to) 116 HP. Then, I would seek to baton pass those substitutes to a sweeper, like Dragon Dancing Tyranitar or Life Orb...
  13. Best Toxic Spike Counters

    I have realized that the team I am currently working on revolves around a central strategy. There are few ways to really break it down if I play it right. However, one of these ways is the dreaded Toxic Spikes. I need to add a Pokemon or something that can counter it, whether it be by further...
  14. Please recommend "Epic Choral Symphony"-esque songs, like One-Winged Angel.

    My guilty pleasure is undeniably listening to this particular genre ... epic choral symphony-esque music. This generally specifies epic and climatic music, most notably with an enormous chorus and full instrumentation. Some examples are Duel of the Fates by John Williams, One-Winged Angel by...
  15. Strong "Tank" Options for the D/P Metagame

    The more I have played the D/P Metagame, the more I realize that the difference between "walls" and "tanks" is more and more clear and, more importantly, much different as opposed to previous versions. In the fast and furious style of the new metagame, walls are often defeated, whether by...
  16. Endeavor Rampardos, everyone.

    I did not see mention of Endeavor anywhere in the analysis section for Rampardos, so I decided to post a little variation to the typical dinosaur. Rampardos @ Focus Sash Adamant, Mold Breaker, 252 Attack / 252 Speed / 4 HP - Rock Polish - Earthquake - Stone Edge - Endeavor It is quite simple...
  17. CBZ -- The Ultimate Counter to Blissey and Special Walls

    Credit Most of the credit of this topic goes out to JabbaTheGriffin. He is the one who came up with the basic idea of this set, while I am simply the one who added on the final tidbits and decided to put it to real game use while adding some of the "filler" moves. The Set Porygon-Z @ Choice...

  19. Mismagius Discussion -- The Perish Trapper

    Currently, the suggested set for a Perish Trapping Mismagius is as follows. name: Perish Trap move 1: Mean Look move 2: Perish Song move 3: Protect move 4: Taunt / Substitute / Pain Split item: Leftovers nature: Calm evs: 252hp/56def/200spdef I think there could be something different, though...
  20. Out of pure curiosity ... could this Smeargle set work at all?

    It probably would not work very effectively, at all. I came up with it just a few minutes ago in a flurry of thought, so bear with me. Smeargle @ Choice Scarf Jolly, Own Tempo, 252 HP / 252 Speed / 6 Defense - Trick - Spore - Belly Drum - Baton Pass This is a pure novelty set. With Choice...
