  1. VGC Ask a Simple Question, Get a Simple Answer - Mark II

    If you're hell-bent on Scyther, then it depends on if outspeeding Garchomp is useful (and it probably is for Scyther). In which case, you'll need Jolly and at least 236 Spe to outspeed Jolly 252 Garchomp. If that's not so important, then bulk will probably be your next priority.

    Thanks! That is really helpful!
  3. VGC Ask a Simple Question, Get a Simple Answer - Mark II

    Hey guys, I've been using pokecheck to test a few pokemon and I've been wondering: do pokemon from pokecheck show up as hacked on Nintendo's hack checks? I'm able to use them on GBU, battle videos etc. but they have a ribbon that they shouldn't have. On the site, they say they, 'discourage'...
  4. VGC Pokemon of the Week: Scizor

    Earthquake still eats large chunks of health from things like enemy metagrosses. I wouldn't say it's that underwhelming.
  5. VGC Pokemon of the Week: Scizor

    Ooh, Metagross, an old favorite ^_^ THE bulky steel to use and, of course, a solid check to most vgc dragons, I personally find Metagross to be one of those pokemon that is a real game changer, particularly when those stupid Swagger Cresselias started gaining popularity. Metagross has always...
  6. VGC 13 European dates revealed: only 3 tournaments, no Spain

    Really glad to see the venues up now, and woop! Swiss rounds! And top 8 get a travel award. I really hope there will be France and Spain nationals. Not that I'll go, it'll just be interesting seeing what's popular over there as it always is.
  7. 2013 International Challenge (OVER!)

    Hmm I guess I cannot deny that. Still not sure who they were, but if you send me their names, I'll forfeit if I see them again. Again, sorry, I've just been very tired as of late and prone to d/cing in hax-induced rage. It's no excuse, but hey, let's just enjoy the rest of the tournament.
  8. 2013 International Challenge (OVER!)

    I don't remember playing you :-/ Sorry, I hate hax with a passion, it honestly is nothing to do with being a sore loser or anything. And also I have no reputation. Thanks for the good luck though. I hope you do well too Well stopping after today with 14 wins, 2 losses (including the one...

  12. His World

    Thanks for the rates, there are some very interesting points made. I haven't actually noticed Skarmory as a threat too much, but looking over the team, you may have a point, so I'll definately try that Blissey set. As I said in my teambuilding stage, I far prefer physical Sand Force to special...
  13. His World

    Yes I know it's Sonic, I just couldn't think of another title. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So hey Smogon, I'm back - that said, I never really left. Anyway, this introduction is probably going to be extremely boring, so feel free to skip...
  14. Smogon Tournament #9 - Round 3

    Oh come on I'm on for 2 weeks, then leave for 3 days and I'm disqualified for inactivity? That's a bit unfair.
  15. Smogon Tournament #9 - Round 2

    Contacted Chacal, will try to play Saturday, but Chacal didn't sound too hopeful.
  16. Smogon Tournament #9 - Round 2

    Just noticed Chacal hasn't been on since Dec 10th -____-

  18. Smogon Tournament #9 - Round 2

    Gonna contact Chacal. Christmas holidays gogogo! EDIT: Just contacted. I'll have a lot of time come Saturday.
  19. Smogon Tournament #9 - Round 1

    Won 2-1 against Frizy, ggs, that last game was very tight
  20. Smogon Tournament #9 - Round 1

    I asked Frizy what time he wanted to play since I've been available all day, and he didn't reply. I'm not asking for an activity win since I'm as guilty as - probably more than - he is, and I won't be able to play tomorrow certainly. A timezone difference of 10 hours is a nightmare. EDIT: Just...
