http://www.smogon.com/dp/moves/safeguard Well then it needs to be added.

It seems that Safeguard doesn't protect from Static. (A wild) Ho-oh used Punishment against my Ampharos and was paralysed. Safeguard was active. This happened twice. Or maybe Punishment is a special case for some reason? (HGSS)

moi :D I still use NB btw. We can CC sometime if you want.

Yes, I know. I just explained how the glitch works.

This happens when a pokemon faints due to residual damage. In this case it was sandstorm. And no, there are no Rotom's other forms in NB yet.

Sometimes I feel like I should post something and this is one of those times... I think we should just allow all NFEs in UU (other than Chansey, Snover and Hippopotas). Then if something feels too strong, move it to BL. Let's look at this Monferno you guys are using as an example. It's...

Bug is 0.25x on Gengar, not 0.5x.

People would play UU more if UU ladder existed. At least I would.

Agreeing with Maniaclyrasist about Ludicolo. I would just like to add that Rain dance teams are already very effective in UU and Ludicolo would make them even better.

I think Gorebyss' Psychic more than makes up for it. OHKOs Toxicroak, Qwilfish and 2HKOs 252 HP Poliwrath (@Leftovers) and it doesn't even need Life orb to do this.

If Omastar is a special offensive threat, then so is Gorebyss as they are almost the same. Gorebyss just has different weaknesses and resistances. I don't see why it's used so much less; you don't have to fear Fighting and Ground moves so much.

Opponent sent out Torkoal! Big Bertha used Something 1! Torkoal's something sharply fell! Torkoal has White smoke. :b

Explosion should be there. None of them is gamebreaking, though.

I think you have forgotten about Togetic. It doesn't learn Aura Sphere or Air Slash which are probably Togekiss' most common attacks. It's also very slow. So it would play very differently from its evolved form. It doesn't do anything better than Togekiss, however.

Where's Suicune? Swellow? But I'd say Kanto wins.

50% team building, 20% prediction, 30% luck. I think this is fairly accurate if we are talking about Shoddy. EDIT: Or maybe 50/25/25

I couldn't agree more. Just ban Garchomp and let's see what happens. It can't really make the game worse that's for sure.

Because it kind of sucks atm imo.

Actually it's the opposite for me at least. I tend to sweep with Omastar in ladder matches. And I never said it's unbeatable but Rain dance teams in UU come pretty close (I haven't lost yet for example). It has 4x resist to Fire though. And you don't necessarily have to switch it in. Bring it...

Omastar can always set up the rain it needs or something else can use it to set it up. I really don't think any kind of UU team stands a chance against a good Rain dance UU team. Everyone seems to forget Gorebyss too. It has 114 base SpA (while Omastar has 115) and also has Swift swim. I doubt...
