    Thanks. When you say “fairly certain,” is there a coding-related reason to think that would be true, or is that just speculation based on what would seem reasonable? (I’m not knowledgeable on how moves are coded into the game).
  2. Rules Simple Questions, Simple Answers / Little Cup Information / Forum Rules

    Do we know whether moves with reduced distribution (e.g. Knock Off no longer on Pawniard) might return after Home releases, or does the game’s coding prevent Pawniard with KO from existing? On a similar note, are moves like HP and Return completely removed from the game’s coding, or just...

    As far as your comment is concerned, I was throwing that idea out because I think it's backwards to make banning decisions and have those determine the banning policy rather than the other way around. People bring biases into individual banning decisions that wouldn't be as present in a...

    Right, I understand why they shouldn't necessarily be the same. But if we follow your logic with Conversion for Pure Power, don't we end up in the same place? Banning Pure Power would resolve the issue of Meditite being broken and it would certainly avoid any collateral damage. So why not just...
  5. Metagame Metagame Discussion Thread

    Corporal Levi You have me sold for the most part (and I was leaning the other way) - but why should we be willing to ban moves separately and not abilities? Maybe Pure Power isn't a great example because of Huge Power, but why did we ban Vulpix in Gen 5 and not just Drought, when Drought was...
  6. Metagame Sun and Moon LC Discussion Thread

    Togedemaru is also shown at Lv 30 in the Japanese trailer, which seems to make it even less likely that it'll get a evolution.
  7. Metagame LC Suspect - BLACK BALLOON - Drifloon is banned!

    Infamy, can you give an example of a strategy in Pokemon that you think is weakly dominant?
  8. Any interest in having another LC or LC UU battle sometime soon?

  9. Metagame LC UU Introduction and Discussion [Sticky Web Banned]

    Unless Pumpkaboo runs 25/17 physical bulk, it can only avoid a 2HKO from Anorith if it gets extremely lucky. Even if it does run 25/17 physical bulk, there is a chance for a 2HKO that becomes a virtual certainty with Stealth Rock. Also, Adamant Anorith almost always 2HKO's max physical bulk...
  10. Metagame LC UU Introduction and Discussion [Sticky Web Banned]

    I know, I was primarily citing the usage stats to point out the lack of evidence we have to use as a basis for banning Sticky Web. LCPL might be a better indication of the meta, but there's no way there have been enough LCPL battles to explore all the options. Developing a meta takes time, and...
  11. Metagame LC UU Introduction and Discussion [Sticky Web Banned]

    First of all, I just want to report that I just played a team with Skrelp and Houndour on the ladder, so it doesn't seem like they're properly banned right now. As for the Sticky Web suspect: Has this tier really been explored enough for us to answer this question? There were 57 total ladder...

    Fun game though, I love playing Wifi LC. I should have an LC UU team done by next weekend, you want me to let you know when it's done?

    Okay, good to know. I do think I team countered you a bit there. You had all grounded pokes + no Pawniard, which is perfect for Sticky Web.

    Good game. I believe I got a high damage roll on Timburr that really helped me out, do you know if that's right?
  15. Yeah. I'm online and I added the FC on your profile.

    Sorry I just got home from work. I might go grocery shopping later, but other than that I'm home for the rest of the night. If you give me about 15-30 minutes warning I should be able to battle whenever.
  17. Okay great. Let me know what time would be best for you. I'll be free all night.

    Okay great. Let me know what time would be best for you. I'll be free all night.

    I have to be up early tomorrow morning for work, so that's unfortunately a little too late for me. Pretty much anytime after 4 tomorrow (including late at night) would work though, would that work for you?
  19. Thanks! Feel free to PM me whenever you want an LC battle. I'll work on some other teams.

    Great! First, just to check: if you're going to rebreed it, is it okay if the Spinarak is male? Also just so you know, only Toxic Spikes and Megahorn are egg moves, Sticky Web and Sucker Punch are level up.
