Why are people worried about mach punch while using sawsbuck? It never stopped me before. Are you just maxing out speed or something? You really don't need much speed investment...most of it can be put into HP.

Been out of pokemon for awhile, getting bored, heard mischievous heart sableye has been released, what's a dude to do? Except ask you if there are any legal female mischievous heart sableyes released, and possibly available on the gts.

I should really change my name to 'broken record' with that amount of times i've been through this lol. Subseeding sucks. Admittedly, it doesn't suck in ubers as much as it does in OU, but ferrothorn is still #4 in usage, forretress and tentacruel laugh at you, and arceus says 'i just won'...

This is why im convinced that subseeding whimsicott users don't actually play pokemon. They say stuff like this. The truth is that almost nothing can be subseeded to death, but every hard counter whimsicott has - and there are like 30 - are all completely circumvented by u-turn. Substitute does...

It's actually one of the most efficient and reliable switch-forcers that pokemon has ever seen...you just have to know how to play it right. And playing it right is never, ever using substitute. All you have to do is this: 1) look at the OU usage list 2) notice how 90% of it laughs maniacally...

Substitute is one of the worst moves you could have on whimsicott, mostly because subseeding is one of the weakest strategies you could employ in a competitive environment. I'm not going to go into detail and explain why for the 75th time....it's all over this thread, and the argument is what...

Whimsicott (no surprise there huh). It's really not that good in ubers lol. Arceus switching in on it says 'you lose'...but its priority stun spore and encore and its grass typing are really screw with a large part of the metagame. Espeon too. Magic Bounce is the most underrated ability in the...

I actually prefer special defense. Water and electric attacks are more commonly special in my experience, and both are almost always backed up by ice. More special bulk allows you to work around the damage from ice beam and hp ice. Also, Whimsicott learns cotton guard (and gets priority on...

I have been waiting for a server like this forever and i am currently jizzing my pants just thinking about it...but I have a feeling you went a bit overboard. All improvements or changes to the game should be implemented through bannings and unbannings; changing the core mechanics is a recipe...

I don't mean to toot my own horn but my jib is cut quite nicely.

White. Zekrom is arguably better than Reshiram, and Thundurus is definitely better than Tornadus. Those are pretty much the only two reasons to pick one or the other, and white's exclusives win by a landslide. I'm speaking on competitive terms, of course...if you just like reshiram/tornadus...

My favorite in-game pokemon was archeops. It looks awesome, learns fly and is an absolute monster in-game. It's actually way too good. Sucks that its ability kills its competitive usefulness though. I would have loved to take my in-game archeops into battle.

Surprise factor requires the surprise to be effective in order to be a valid strategy. If I planned on throwing cottonballs at your face, I wouldn't need to sneak up on you to do it; you'd just take a few cottonballs to the dome and proceed to beat me up. There would be no reason to have your...

Why would they? "Competitive pokemon", an oxymoron to begin with, is contradictory to the point of the games and is therefore theoretically detrimental to their sales. Gamefreak's preferred demographic wants to play with favorites; competitive players tell that preferred demographic to either...

You don't even need the event because you 'see' zorua in-game, which allows you to find it on the GTS.

There are no female dream world eevees. The eevelutions are only found via events, and dream world event pokemon have thus far always been male. There is a new japanese event for an anticipation eevee, but there is no word on whether or not it can be female.

Yes. I trade tornadus for thundurus, then get a thundurus off the gts. Inless there is something i'm missing?

Where does a complete rng noob go to learn how to rng? It's completely ridiculous that you can't breed or even synchronize dream world event pokemon, and I want a good espeon. Also, does anyone want to trade me a tornadus for my (crappy) thundurus? I figure that the gts will allow me to have...

"No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." - Matthew 24:36 Since this rumor was started by one guy (the same guy who started the same rumor in 1994 and failed), i'd just thought i'd let people know how Christians feel about this issue...

I'm not some sort of totalitarian anti-sub nazi. Our job here is to discuss whimsicott and its potential. I have extensive experience both using whimsicott and facing it, and that experience gives me the knowledge that sub is a vastly inferior option due to the insane number of 100% counters...
