  1. Battle tower RTM and help

    *double-checks Bulbapedia* My apologies; I stand corrected. I could've sworn I'd seen otherwise... but nevermind that, it's irrelevant now. However, as Ashez was pondering whether or not going all physical was a good idea, you can still take that as a suggestion if you want to use Gengar...
  2. Battle tower RTM and help

    It seems like Scizor has to do too much, and doesn't have enough room for coverage. It really helps him to have Pursuit and BugBite to rely on along with BulletPunch, which can be easily walled by Gyarados. One thing you might consider is replacing Buneary with Togekiss: Togekiss @ Choice...
  3. VGC Discussion Forum

    Nintendo's official annual VGC tournaments are coming up soon, and since the metagame is so different from those currently on Smogon/Shoddybattle I propose a new subforum for VGC under the WiFi section (as a sibling-node of Giveaways and WiFi Tournaments). To the extent of my knowledge there is...
  4. Possible Applications of Specific Durablity, or, Why You Should Care

    Well, 2 years > 1 year, and that one year would make all the difference if that's the year you learn to differentiate in three dimensions. I may be mathfailing hard, but could you make a function of Y that calculates the maximum of the Z(X) curve at a given Y-value? Because the maximum of THAT...
  6. Goodbye Overall Harm, hello Specific Durability! (BIG IDEA = MUST READ)

    My apologies, noob3, I didn't mean to offend, I was just trying to ward off any obnoxious 8th graders who think they're too kool 4 skool. (And further apologies if your avatar is a self-portrait...) If you have trouble with math and are decent at competitive pokemon, maybe it would help you to...
  7. Goodbye Overall Harm, hello Specific Durability! (BIG IDEA = MUST READ)

    I've computed an alternative formula to the Overall Harm formula, which I call Specific Durability. Before I begin, a warning... MATH WARNING: THERE IS MATH HERE The difference is that while overall harm computes, well, the harm caused by a given damage constant, this formula calculates the...
