Hey there Smogon! I hope it's alright to post this here. I've just written up an article on my experience running our University Pokemon Club and I am hoping to inspire others to start up their own clubs! If you're a high school or university student without a Pokemon club, perhaps there's some...

Considering Smogon's already famous for creating an incredibly well-accepted tiering system for the VG, I think it would be natural for Smogonites to take a stab at tiering decks within a rotation. I'd also argue that there's a relative need for this. It's not as though not having a defined...

Alright, here's an interesting thread idea. I'll try and keep the following posts updated with links to the specific posts regarding the ideas people have for either cheap decks that they've had decent success with, or decent tech cards that replace other, more expensive cards. The idea is to...

I'm not talking about off-colouring, I'm talking about cards that just slipped through the editing process. Here's an example: Bring it.

Alright, so here's the deal. This thread is for proposing and discussing cards with very specific metagame niches (or potential metagame niches if one card/deck became more widely played). A great example would be Heatmor DEX if everyone and their dog ran Durant. I say would though, because...

Hello everyone! Last year I asked this same question and I had a couple artists help us out (Special thanks to RitterCat and JerardoMartino). This year I'm back with the same request :P We're running a pokemon league at Tsukino Con, Victoria's anime convention, and trainers beat gym leaders...

Info: http://tsukinocon.com/ Location: Click here for map directions So, I'm the event organizer for Tsukino Con, Victoria's Anime convention (Victoria BC, held at UVic Feb 17-19 2012), and this year we're hosting the sequel to last year's Poke-league! "This year enter the Tsukino region...

BST: 60/95/80/60/80/30 QC: Solace, Huy NOTE: Edited title to spur this along. Not sure what else I need to do for the skeleton. Comments and criticisms more than appreciated. [Overview] <p>Parasect is one of the golden few blessed with access to Spore. Despite possessing worse bulk...

What say we open up with some discussion of the new Emerging Powers Beartic? Or if you want to post a deck list or discuss another card or trend, just start it off. The hype this thing was receiving when it's scan was released led people to believe it was the new game-breaker. But metas...

I'm genuinely surprised that I couldn't find this suggestion using the search, though I'm sure there are threads... Given the popularity of the pokemon trading card game, it's pretty likely this forum could see a good deal of use. Discussions of cards, proposals of decks and general deck lists...

Alright, I've been playing with this team for some time now, refining it, figuring out what works and what doesn't, what I need to watch for and what I can replace. This team was designed with one goal in mind. Give Crawdaunt the credit he deserves, and at the same time, throw in another NU poke...

Not quite, but sorta! The UVic Pokemon Club is hosting a VGC tournament in Victoria BC August 20th as a fundraiser for the club. Entry fee is $5 with proceeds going towards hosting more tournaments and sending club members to future VGC events! The rules for team building are the same as regular...

Edit: sorry, this is where I posted the last thread pertaining to a tournament I was hosting in Victoria, but I just realized Stark Mountain is for DPPt, which is not the format of this tournament. If a mod sees this, please delete it as it was posted in error, thanks :)

This is more of a suggestion, but think Smogon would be able to publish a list of all the fully evolved pokemon in B/W before strategies are up. Kind of like what the NFE looks like in DPPt. Just to have a list comparing the stats of the new pokemon as a quick reference. Or is that being held...

Info: http://tsukinocon.com/pokeleague.html So, I'm the contest organizer for Tsukino Con, Victoria's Anime convention (Victoria BC, held at UVic Feb 25-27 2011), and this year I'm leading a new event to the con, the Poke-league. "This year enter the Tsukino region, challenge all 8 gyms + the...

'ello 'ello. So I'm running a mock pokemon league as part of an anime convention in Victoria BC, Canada. And right now, I'm looking for an artist to help me make things pretty ^^; Essentially, I need a few designs/pictures done, and someone who I could call on if I needed a gym badge to be...

Alright, so this here's a Gen 4 OU team, but I gladly managed to find an incredibly specific niche role for a NU pokemon :) So to start my team out, I wanted to use a Machamp for his laughably enjoyable No Guard DynamicPunch. And built my team around it. Machamp 244HP/252Atk/12Spe No Guard...

The aim of this set is to take advantage of Gallade's half-decent defences using the one move capable of improving them. The only reason I can see no one having used this set before is the lack of Close Combat as a STAB move considering you'll be bulking up your defence. It's a sad loss, and...
