The point isn't that if you lose a 1on1, that you would've won, due to sand veil that that's unfair. While I do agree that sand veil has a detrimental effect on how enjoyable pokemon is this isn't the reason it should be banned. It's because there were sets that abuse the combination of garchomp...

OK, maybe I didn't make my point clear. While SR and momentum is great, it's stupid to assume that that's a good trade for Deo-D. If that's all you want you should be using azelf instead as it outspeeds a lot more and can use u-turn for momentum as well. It also dies easier so you can get...

People using Deo-D HO teams shouldn't use Deo-D as a suicide lead. OK, some of the time that is its best use. But I find that in my team I rarely send deoxys out first. Against other HO teams you should always try and gain momentum first as you can potentially finish the game in a few turns, if...

Appreciate the praise immensely, so thank you all for your comments. Though Namikaze deserves most of the praise, he did all the pictures and percentages. You are all right about my mistakes, but you realise when writing a warstory, and reading your opponents comments, every way you could've won...

You really should've attacked Gliscor, but at least you justified the reasoning behind your choice to switch. Also, how did Flygon gain 10% of its health? I enjoyed this warstory and feel it deserved 7/10.

We've all been hearing about the massive BP Oil spill in the gulf of Mexico. I think we can all agree that this is a massive, human induced, disaster that we should try to contain as soon as possible. What I want to address is how politicians, especially Obama, are handling this crisis. I...

If that article is null and void because she's black then surely your response is also null and void. I don't know how you can say it is plausible that the stereotypes were made valid! Are you saying that it is enough to end somebody's life due to stereotypes? You're argument about Sparta and...

I think one of the main reasons Salamence should be considered Uber is the move Roost. This elevates it beyond the reaches of threats such as Infernape or Tyranitar. If Tyranitar had something like Slack Off (that also halved its fighting weakness at the same time) I think it would be Ttar that...

Gengar doesn't absorb toxic spikes as it has levitate. I think I've changed my mind about suicune, the team works much better without him as Infernape struggles with Life Orb recoil + SS, take out sandstorm and throw in toxic and it will be dead easily with Rotom and Heatran being immune to his...

Noticed that this team hasn't got any replies yet and is almost on the rarely looked at third page so I'll give it a shot even though I'm not the most accomplished team rater. First of all this team seems very well balanced and toxic spikes does seem to be quite a good entry hazard at the...

I'm not sure if it has been mentioned but a 'surge' in electric types seems imminent. Specially defensive Zapdos can handle much of the speculated metagame, taking out bulky waters and checking Infernape with relative ease. Agility variants can also take out most of the metagame anyway but with...

The current doctor is alright, but I don't think he was as good as David Tennant or Christopher Eccleston. The story line however is much worse. They did get a different main writer but the writer they chose has written for doctor who before and made one of the best episodes. I really don't like...

Inter have won now, well done Milito and Mourinho.

Inter scored against the run of play, slightly undeserved IMO. "The one team in Europe you don't want to give a goal to." I think this pretty much sums up what will happen now, if Inter don't get another goal this half we could be in for an excellent second half... I wonder what the half-time...

You're speaking about signing players as though only Man Utd. are allowed to buy other players. If any of the top 8 bought four top quality players they could threaten to win the title, and Man City will probably buy at least 6 (thank God they didn't get into CL otherwise players will have more...

What is the point of exploding on Aero (who isn't a major threat) and having no rocks? If I U-Turn I break its Sash and azelf can set rocks later while aero has a chance that it won't do its job at all. Most Azelfs will let aero get rocks down and prevent you from doing so, unless you explode...

@ Abutorn - Azelf isn't meant to kill the majority of leads, it SRs, Taunts, dies. If it doesn't die then I use either explode or U-Turn but it's likely the steels will kill me anyway. Also, with Azelf's current EVs it can do 109.7% - 129.1% to the standard lead jirachi with Explosion (i.e kill...

The Maightee Bewsh: The inspiration for this is one of my favourite TV shows, the Mighty Boosh (I spelled the title based on how the theme song is sung). It's set in Dalston, in the heart of Hackney in London, so I'm guessing the majority of you won't have heard of it. Anyway, I wanted...

Latias can set up on every single member of your team bar skarmory with whirlwind, and with Dragon Pulse + Surf, two CMs (which would be very easy) it can decimate this team. I would suggest that jirachi be made the physical wish supporter with the moves Wish ~ U-Turn ~ Thunder Wave/Thunder ~...

Come Together ~ Primal Scream The whole album is amazing, blending Detroit Rock with dance complexions to create a psychedelic experience. I would actually recommend the whole album, especially the first 7 songs. The reason I chose this song in particular is that your mood doesn't have to adapt...
