  1. Ask an Uber Question, Get an Uber Answer (Read FAQs in First Post Before Asking)

    This may have already been asked, but how does one catch a Therian Forme genie in the dream radar with a good nature? My Tornadus is cruddy. I actually think that's his nature: "Cruddy".
  2. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer - VGC edition

    Can someone help me with some math? What hurts more against a bulky water type: Heat Wave + STAB + Fire Gem + Sunshine, or Solar Beam? I've tried the above-mentioned damage calculators, but I couldn't get any to work that had weather built in.
  3. VGC '12 World Championships - Kona, HI, USA - WON by BlueCookies & Dimsun!

    Mark me down as being there! LCQ here I come!!! After having a decidedly mediocre showing at the NorCal regionals, I've done a bit of practicing and am now ready to have a kick-ass time at Worlds! But does the hotel have to be so expensive?? Also, I'm down to go see lava floes some night if...
  4. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer - VGC edition

    Chlorophyll Venusaur is also popular for sun teams. I have a Chlorophyll Shiftry, which I really like because he can learn fake out. And then you'll want to load up with pokemon with good fire moves - perhaps some that learn heat wave. Heatran is still legal in VGCs and isn't considered uber...
  5. Drought Team Help - preppin' for Worlds!

    Thanks for the suggestion on rock slide! I was also thinking that something gimmickly like swagger might be useful... After making some changes (suggested above), I can tell you that the U-turn is working great! Lati@s are running scared! Also, I took of discharge from my Zapdos. It was a hard...
  6. Drought Team Help - preppin' for Worlds!

    Thanks for the help! Rage powder on my Amoonguss! Good idea! I've seen that used by others and I've always thought it strange to ask for an attack - but I realize that I need to get over that phobia. Perhaps this is a question better stated in AASQ, but how to spore and rage powder relate to one...
  7. Drought Team Help - preppin' for Worlds!

    I just found out that I'm going to have an opportunity to go to Worlds next month! So my drought team, which went 4/4 at the California regionals back in April, is going to get another shot at the crown! I like to think that I could've gone 6/2 at regionals had I not had got greedy for the KO on...
  8. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer - VGC edition

    I'm prepping for the Hawaii LCQ and I'm retooling my drought team. What's the best thread to post in? Here? Make a new topic? Different thread? Just solicit PMs? I went 4/4 at the regionals, and was a hax/dumb@$$ mistake away from 6/2. So I'm fundamentally ok with the concept of my team. But...
  9. VGC 2012 Usage Statistics - "Rise of the Rain Team"

    Good questions, all... As for the server, I can only assume it's the main server. All statistics are from: http://stats.pokemon-online.eu/ . As for the number of battles, it's pretty variable: Sept 2011 - 628; Oct 2011 - 925; Nov 2011 - 438; Dec 2011 - 912; Jan 2012 - 1917; Feb 2012 - 1820...
  10. VGC 2012 Usage Statistics - "Rise of the Rain Team"

    I've taken the VGC 2012 Pokemon Online usage statistics and made this handy chart for people to use/explore: Click here! You can isolate individual pokes on the right, and then goof around with the sliders to see average percentages and percentage change over time. This includes all...
  11. Smogon VGC 2012 - Usage stats

    And for even more information, here are PO statistics since the beginning of the year. Granted, this isn't based on the teams that showed up for the tournaments, but it is the VGC 2012 tier.
  12. VGC '12 Northern California Regional - Pleasanton, CA - Won by Nickscor & AlphaOmega!

    If anyone sees the old guy with the beard and the bell helicopter hat, that's me! Was talking worth kid kadabra for a bit, but the wireless fritzed out. Good luck all!
  13. VGC Data Spreadsheet
