  1. Having a hard time countering Giratina

    So, I've been thinking about this for a while, and my brain is starting to hurt from the stress, so I present the problem to you. Here's the deal... Giratina-O is a great all-rounder pokemon, between stats, move pool, and even typing. And of course, it's gotten more popular as of late as a...
  2. VGC Jail Break team

    Ok, so the name might not be the best, but I couldn't come up with anything particularly witty. I just thought "imprison + explosion = jail break?" so don't give me too much crap over it :P Anywho, this team is, as the title states, for the VGC. Thus, 4-man team, level 50, yadda yadda. So...
  3. VGC

    So, after doing a bit of research, I'm trying to piece together a decent team for VGC. So, after doing a bit of testing, this is the team I'm working with right now, and the comments I have about it: Cresselia @ Light Clay Levitate Relaxed 252 HP/128 Def/128 Sp.Def -Trick Room -Light Screen...
  4. Breaking Down the VGC Metagame MK. II

    Some have you have really given me a lot of info in my other "Breaking down the VGC Metagame" thread, and it's helping me immensely. But now I would like to focus on another part of the metagame. I would like to take a look at leads. I think most people would agree that the leads on any team...
  5. Breaking Down the VGC Metagame

  6. VGCs question

    I hope this is the right place to put this thread. If not, somebody just let me know. So, I was doing some research on VGC teams, and I decided to compile a list, for my own use, of pokemon typically seen in competition, and the moves/abilities to watch out for.

  7. Where are the Doubles?

    I'm aware that Shoddy does not currently support Doubles battles. However, since there are other outlets that do (Nintendo Wifi, Netbattle, Pokemon-Online), so I was wondering if Smogon was planning on creating some Doubles forums? Currently, it's hard to find people who specifically enjoy...
  8. Imprison Doubles

    After toying with doubles teams for a while, I realized that there are a couple key skills that are used a LOT. Namely Protect and Taunt. So, I decided to be "that guy" and make a team that would lock them out, then sweep. So, here's my setup. Mismagius @ Leftovers Timid Levitation 252...
  9. Torrential Doubles

    So, I've spent a few hours making tweaks to this team. Being new to competitive battling, I'm a little unsure of where to make changes to improve this lineup. This is a rain dance team for doubles. So please keep that in mind when you critique it. Ludicolo - Leftovers Modest Swift Swim 60...
