It's better to do something rather than nothing, it sounds like you'd benefit a lot from talking to someone. As far as making excuses goes, one of the first things a psychologist should do is push you to do things you know you'll enjoy, even if you don't feel like it. Even when you come up with...

Honestly forgot there were legality checks in stadium lol

I'm looking at the RBY community spotlight format vote, and Stadium Tradebacks isn't listed, despite being imo the 4th relevant version of G1. I know Stadium isn't nearly as popular as RBY, but I am curious to see if anyone would be interested in giving it a try?

Arguably not anime bc it's a Chinese production, but I'm really enjoying To Be Hero X atm. Honestly the narrative structure is really interesting- jumping around the different hero's backstories should work against it, doubly so because it feels like a prequel to something, but it's cohesive...

I agree with hehehehclefairy in that this team looks incredibly awkward into Chansey, and can probably use a Lax. Clamp is just not reliable as a plan for Chansey due to its terrible accuracy, missing and getting paralysed seems like it would undermine the team greatly. The other thing I'll...

I've since had this happen even when I clicked Fight, so I don't think it's dependent on what move is clicked

https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen1ou-2407679910 On turn 37, I Wrap the opposing Chansey. On turn 38, opponent switches to Zapdos, meaning Wrap is used again and it hits On turn 39 the second hit of Wrap misses??? I clicked Thunder Wave if anyone's wondering Pretty sure the first hit of...

Not to dispute your point, but I think this is a funny example bc I'm pretty sure Leer (or Tail Whip) Rhydon is significantly more relevant than Toxic

There's a bunch of stuff that's recommended in the teambuilder that's good in later gens but not used much in RBY, pretty sure that's the case here

I'm really curious what everyone's thoughts are on Persian. We're seeing a huge spread in terms of where people are ranking it with some people putting it on the fringes of b and others putting it towards the bottom of D and now Serpi putting it in E, below stuff like Golem. I haven't used it...

The frustrating thing about that is that we didn't do that on Pokemon Perfect to be different, it was because we saw it as an upgrade. I'm pretty sure Lutra's said that the numerical convention was intended to improve upon smogon's convention and not just be a PP thing

Dude what the fuck is SU, these tiers don't make any sense. Smogon seriously needs to adopt a numerical convention. I already don't know which of PU or ZU is supposed to be higher, never mind idk QU or whatever else people come up with edit: although I get why stuff like OU/UU/NU wouldn't like...

I think Tarvold as well. Wholeheartedly agree with this though. Tbh I wouldn't post every pokemon since there's a lot still for me to test, but I'd feel very weird ranking stuff like Farfetch'd and not something like Kingler lmao

So the logic behind the Wrap gang ranking seems dubious to me. The premise that Dragonair, Weepinbell and Arbok should be B- bc Victreebel and Dragonite are, seems to assume that either the only viable team which utilises Dragonite or Victreebel also requires Dair, Wbell and Arbok, or that...

Here's my VR, since no-one asked for it (also aren't we overdue for an update?) So anyway, from D2 downwards there's a lot of uncertainty, as not all of these pokemon I've tested adequately- I've ranked them based on theorymon and a bit from reading discussion from other people. Technically...

Honestly Zam's decline is kinda interesting to watch. I will try to put together a full VR at a later date (not that mine matters these days), but I'm firmly on board with it being below Zap/Don. I think at this point its best frame of reference might even be Jynx, which seems wild to me, but...

Shoutout Hipmonlee for helping to clarify about the origin of these mods Yeah, I agree with Legitimate Username in highlighting the absurdity of those freeze clause stats. I really think those gens 2-4 ought to be looking critically at freeze clause and whether it's really necessary. Beyond...

So as kind of a side note, there are 2 proposals for cart accurate sleep clause- DQ, or to prevent selection of sleeping moves when the clause is active. Preventing selection of sleep moves creates an array of interactions where its behaviour can be awkward, although how relevant they are varies...

You do realise that improving cart accuracy and having a competitive game are not mutually exclusive goals right? What you're describing sounds an awful lot to me like we shouldn't even try, and just accept whatever bastardised implementation was here first, because of long forgotten decisions...

That rings a bell, but it's really a shame that it wouldn't be considered. With proper measures in place to prevent accidental DQs I really don't think it's unreasonable and it is honestly exactly how you would logically implement sleep clause if we didn't already have the mod in place on the...
