I think that if a few pokemon don't really live up to standards in the next generation, that it would be unwise to alter them competitively. It would be interesting to see how a generation shift effects what we have created over the long-term. Perhaps Cyclohm might be completely outclassed by...

I don't think so. It would accomplish very little, as Metagross staying in on a fire attack would be pointless since he has a Heatran to absorb it. Lum berry saves him against reads like Roserade and Smeargle that like to abuse Sleep Powder and set up entry hazards, which are bad news bears for...

Firstly, I do love me some honchkrow Secondly, my guess is that a Gengar can give you a lot of trouble, especially if it's one of the 10.3% running energy ball (bye swampert). Let's run through a few different sets on the site: Sub+3 attacks: Metagross and Swampert will not be...

Your starmie suggestion is excellent. I'll edit the main thread to let everyone who reads this know that I'm testing out starmie/zapdos over scizor/starmie. The reason I don't run thunder wave over toxic on porygon2 is that discharge already has a high paralysis chance, so running thunder...

I will, that sounds like a great suggestion. I'll have to do without rapid spin support with two flyers though. Maybe I won't need it?

Hello again, Smogon! This is my second RMT! I attended the pokemon seminar on battling 101 a while ago and made a team based off of its recommendations, the 1-2 combo, the 3-5 core and the 6 glue thing (if you have not read the seminar log, do so. It is insightful). It is the...

I've fallen in love with the CAP process so much that I could care less about the real metagame. I look forward to participating in the future, hopefully with a better insight. I am really excited to see Voodoom on shoddy. Everyone did excellent work.

Well, the silence regarding my previous suggestion told me that something was wrong, and I decided it was the second sentence. That, or nobody likes me ;_; Yeah, well, here we go again. VOODOOM - Lonely Doll Pokémon "It lives with the stigma of being discarded. Its size and expression tends to...

Problem 1) Three of your pokemon are weak to fighting attacks. Problem 2) You say you have problems with Sceptile. The cure for both of these is a flying type, but when you add any of the normal flying types in, you now have 3 weaknesses to ice. If you absolutely must keep golem, you've got to...

Aragornbird's sprite got my vote with a very close second granted to Doug. I chose Aragornbird's because I decided I didn't like the overly large features on Doug's sprite, and I also appreciated a less ridiculously subtle gender difference. The back sprite on Aragornbird's design is exciting as...

The options for replacing your Claydol as a rapid spinner are few in the UU tier, but they are available. The best I can suggest for you is to try a Donphan spinning set. Its typing is a lot better than claydol's, whose secondary typing is effectively only adding a few weaknesses you don't need...

SgtWoodsy, that's fucking creepy and I love it. Anyway, here's my entry VOODOOM - "It lives with the stigma of being discarded. Being around TOGEKISS can bring it comfort and ease its sorrow." Feel free to comment on it n' stuff.

EDIT: Firecape's reasoning is most sound. Never mind this suggestion.

I don't think it's impossible for there to be a large-ish doll, not in the world of pokemon. Therefore, your implicitly "anatomically correct" version is just one of many possible interpretations in a fantasy world. I would have to say that while it is a creative approach to the sprite, it...

my first suggestion is that we make love because I very much enjoy those sprites. My second suggestion is maybe to change the stitching color on the shiny sprites. It would look much more consistent if the stitches were changed to black, like the rest of that color was. Otherwise, yes, excellent.

Ice Punch Paleo Wave Sucker Punch

As stated previously, Zapdos is covered much more easily with ice beam, who has been a major part of this discussion from the typing polls onward. We don't want Zapdos to wall the duo, but we want bulky waters to give it a bit of trouble. Ice beam allows for this. It's also not going to make...

On the Crobat analysis page, there is a mention of MixMence at the end of the Standard Bat set. Just deleting that mention from the end of the paragraph is necessary, since Mence got the banhammer. http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/crobat
