It hits *very* hard. In most circumstances I find it wipes out at least one of the opposing Pokemon in one hit, usually leaving the other in the red unless they happen to be a sp. defensively oriented Aegislash or similar. I had been using Tailwind Noivern with Choice Specs Exploud, but I've...

Damn, I knew about the change but I thought it was 4 stages before it was 100%, so you had to use everything possible (all that, plus Focus Energy) to have 100% chance. And crits doing less damage is actually beneficial to this combo... I hope it doesn't get popular :/

After just talking about how Psych Up didn't work for me, I was just wrecked by a team that started with support Murkrow (I forgot about prankster or this may not have gone so terribley) and a Shiftry that used Fake Out, then Explosion. Then, an Anger Point Krookodile and Super Luck Honchkrow...

Wow, awesome break down Theorymon. I was at a loss after my first attempt at a trick room team crashed and burned, but after reading your post I have a lot of different things I want to try. Also, I'm wondering about the viability of Quiver Dance Volcarona and something such as Beeheeyem with...

A minor quibble and I know the name is a long one, but the person that changed my name made a typo. The penultimate letter is supposed to be a "u", as requested below: (I don't know how the system works, but if the note could still say "formerly BloodRedZangoose" that'd be great.) Sorry for the...

Well, I think I can consider this as having gone about as well as the last competition I entered - the Dragon Cup. Might have been better had I not had two disconnects because of the horrible internet at my new house, but I ended up finishing 9th in the UK and 158th in the world. As people have...

Hi there, can I change my name to Inconspicuosaurus? It's my name on Showdown and other forums and my current one is one of those "sounded cool when I was 14" ones... Thanks! :) k - oglemi

So this is the team I'm working on atm. Groudon, Jumpluff and Lickilicky are from my Enter the Dragon Team where I did the best I ever have, so bringing them out of retirement to help me out here. Reuniclus takes the place of Dialga for my TRer, but may be replaced by Cress, now that I have just...

Thanks, BlakDragon. I was thinking Reuniclus as he's always been a favourite of mine, but Musharna is an interesting alternative. My mind is going down all sorts of paths now, even thinking a SandRoom team with Reuniclus, Groudon, maybe M-Steelix, as Reuniclus is immune to Sandstorm with Magic...

I'm thinking of reviving the core from my Enter the Dragon Type team, which was a Trick Room team with Groudon. However, my TR-setter was Dialga. It seems like the best replacement would be Cresselia, but I'm not sure how likely it is that I'll be able to find the Crescent Isle in time. Does...

Looks like I'm first to drop in to brag since the rankings have been up? Welp, I did a hell of a lot better than my last couple of competitions, going 21W-9L in the end with a team that was half god and half super-derp (I like to think it balances out on the OP scale). I am very proud...

I'm looking for a Quiet Dialga, preferably with decent IVs for a special-attacking Trick Roomer, for use on my Generation Showdown team. Any help anyone could be in supplying or pointing me in the right direction would be much appreciated. I can offer numerous in-game legends, and breed most...

I'm looking for a Pressure one, but I would have no problem using a Telepathy one if that was easier for some reason. I did try, but I may have been going about it the wrong way. I'm used to Serebii's hyper-organised thread-per-Pokemon system, so I'm going to have another look and see if I can...

So I have managed to catch a Brave Groudon for my team with decent enough IVs, but in a sleep-deprived stupor of soft-resets, I have just managed to save instead of resetting after catching a terrible Bashful Dialga -___- Does anyone know of anywhere I can get a decent Quiet one? I've tried...

Oh okay, that's pretty convincing. I shall give Protect a go. I haven't actually had any occasion to use Return yet, so I doubt I will miss it. And wow, that special set sounds like it would be hilarious if it worked (that visual), but I can see how having to wait until you've taken a hit or two...

I can't say I've seen any apart from myself, but then I haven't played a huge number of games. I have caught a fair few people out who suspect an attacking lead and double-protect, allowing me to freely set up and sweep them on the next turn. Which is always fun, especially when they...

It was XD I didn't know what else to give it with Leftovers taken by Conkeldurr, but when I saw yours I thought it was a pretty cool idea. I haven't seen much use from it though tbh. I'm guessing you use it specifically because it activates from your own team member's EQs then? Before I replaced...

So this is what I've been using, with mixed success, on Showdown. I think I can attribute most of my failures to either me using my team wrong or completely out-there strategies that I didn't recognise until it was too late. As for the team itself, if any of you guys notice anything that could...

You know how sometimes someone comes up with a strategy and it wrecks you, but it's okay because it was really clever, and then other times it's really not okay because it's just really, really annoying. Well, half of this the first, and half of it was the second...

I just use the Snipping Tool to save a portion of the screen as an image, then upload it. Congratulations to everyone who triumphed in this competition, and good luck in the next!
