  1. What team style do you think is going to be dominant?

    I do question the validity of a poll where the OP begins with a statement of what he believes will be most dominant and offers opinions on each definition of play type. That said, I'm leaning balanced, although I believe that 5th Gen will allow for a variety of play types. Well built balanced...
  2. R.I.P. Leads and Scouting

    I'm mixed about this. On the one hand, this means that it'll be harder to bring out a trap and surprise the opponent with a Pokemon held in reserve. While that's bad for offensive play or bulky offense, it also means that in-game you have to be more careful with prediction, and will help keep...
  3. Ice Breath

    Too bad that Warubiaru is weak to both of them. So is Afro Bison for that matter. Maybe use a different Pokemon for the anger point? Primeape has a good shot, but he's pretty fast.
  4. Garchomp

    I can definitely see Garchomp being a strong anti-metagame force in this new generation. I don't think the Chandelier can take him out even with HP Ice if it's a Yachechomp, and switching out means a free Swords Dance for Garchomp. Not to mention Scarfchomp's revenge-killing abilities. For all...
  5. In-Game Tier List Discussion

    Been playing some; Meguroko and Hihidaruma's pre-evo have been fantastic members of my team. I'd put Hihidaruma's preevolution in higher than god tier personally, the guy starts with Fire Fang, gets Fire Punch early, and boosted with Encourage dishes out OHKOs to at level Pokemon of neutral typing.
  6. The Stronger the Gravity, the Harder They Fall

    Gravity is a move I've always felt has been overlooked in the competitive community. Not only does it turn normally low accuracy moves into high accuracy moves, it makes all levitators and fliers vulnerable to Ground-type moves. That last part is the important line. The only two types that...
  7. Japanese Movie Celebi Confirmed

    Guys, Serebii says that Suicune learns AIR CUTTER, not AIR SLASH. Which is even less useful, but it's not exactly like you'd ever use either of them.
  8. New and "creative" moveset/EV spread thread. Mk. 4

    Enigma berry doesn't stop the damage from the attack from taking place. That's why its never used, pretty much any super effective attack is going to do more than 25% damage, and pretty much any earthquake is going to OHKO Raichu anyways. It's obvious you've never tested this, and you don't...
  9. HGSS Megaspeculation Thread

    I do have to say though, not only are they showing a lot of footage from the game, but there is a LOT of polish here. Redesigned menus and layouts looks sleek and stylish. The Pokedex looks sleeker, and the Pokemon summary page no longer has a whole bunch of small pages, instead using the two...
  10. HGSS Megaspeculation Thread

    You're both wrong, it's based off of the pokemon given to the player in Yellow, who is based off of Ash, who is based off of Red. The character is incidentally also named Red. Anyways, I hope they ramp his difficulty back up to the highest leveled character in the game. Platinum has level100...
  11. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 10a - Name Discussion

    Went through Google, found some obscure Naruto reference to some technique called Raitatsu, thought it fit pretty well. Means Thunder Dragon technique, apparently.
  12. Star Wars

    Episode V was easily the best of them, story and characterization wise, but my favorite moments in the films were the attacks on both Death Stars. My goodness, why did the stop using models, it looks a million times better. The battle over Coruscant in Episode III was just an abysmal cluster of...
  13. I would do anything for love, but I won't do that (Suspect)

    Good warstory. You get a better battle at some point and it'll go straight to archives.
  14. December 25, 1998 - OU RMT

    I'd argue that with that many ground immunities, you'd want a ground weak to give you better switch-ins. You'll never get to switch in on earthquakes if they'll never be using them anyways. Starmie over Dragonite is a good idea, a defensive spinner would help ease that Stealth Rock weak and...
  15. Valentine's Plans?

    I'm going to Six Flags with my Dad and my sister for his True Love Waits Conference. ... Yep. Hey, it's Six Flags, and I don't have to pay!
  16. *Ubers* First warstory - Don't let it put you off :)

    It was decent. You had good commentary, but the battle was lackluster. Shuffling to get out your Rayquaza just doesn't make for a great warstory, but if you have a better match, you could probably write a really good one.
  17. Car Accident

    I knew a kid from my church. Hit by a car at an intersection when he was on his skateboard. Thrown 200 feet and died. This happened a few monthes ago. Shook everyone right up it did.
  18. Great Cinematic Moments of Video Games

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQPW4dKehM8&fmt=18 This confrontation from Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga. The villain here, Fawful, is the guardian boss of the game, and argubly the greatest villain of all video games. Simply amazing, especially the cutscene after the fight. Unfortunately...
  19. Kool Aid man itt (OU Warstory)

    The battle was okay, the commentary though could use some work. You didn't just summarize what happened, but you didn't draw me in to the story exactly. Other than that, a decent first attempt. Your format was probably the worst aspect, some more sprites or spacing or colors would help a lot.
