    Gen 3 Best Friends (ADV)

    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...

    All Gens Grass-Types

    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...

    Gen 2 A GSC Ubers Team

    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...

    Gen 2 A Growth Espeon Team

    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...

    All Gens Fire-Types

    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...

    Gen 3 Having Trouble With This Team

    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...

    All Gens Ideas For Increasing UU/Ubers activity?

    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...

    OU Heracross Theorycraft

    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...

    Persona 4 Arena

    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. http://www.atlus.com/p4arena/ Does anyone here play?

    All Gens What is stall?

    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...

    Gen 3 Perish Trap RMT

    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. Dream Wing (Zapdos) @ Leftovers Trait: Pressure EVs...

    Trapping Overkill?

    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. Tyranitar (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Sand Stream EVs: 176 HP / 116 Atk / 180 SAtk / 36 Spd Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd) - Pursuit - Fire Blast...
