Need to ask a question about Pokemon Rnch just to make sure I don't waste money on it.

Ranch only lets you transfer Pokemon from one game back to the same game right?

So you can't tansfer Pokemon from one game to another? Just making sure.

Exactly. Only the game that deposits a Pokemon can pick it up.
 
Making a Gravity team, and I was hoping to find a special sweeper capable of fireing off random Thunder/FireBlasts/Blizzards/whatevers who wasn't weak to Ice or Ground or Psychic or Fire (Under Grav). Can anyone think of any?
EDIT: Doesn't have to get all of those moves just some lol...
 
Lapras fits your bill I think. Has Ice Beam/Surf or Hydro Pump/Thunderbolt to play with, also a few nice support options like Sing and Perish Song. Or you could go the Curse route.

Also Octillery, if you want a Fire move :-p

So I'm assuming Gravity is set up by someone else? I've had a few gravity teams myself, they are quite fun :D. Anyway, here are some of my ideas.

I have the perfect fit!
Smeargle @ Life Orb
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
- blizzard
- fire blast
- thunder
- earthquake

:D. But really here is what I can think of.

Here's some ideas that fit your qualifications:

Starmie: Thunder, Blizzard
Mesprit: Thunder, Blizzard
Slowbro & Slowking: Thunder, Fire Blast
(why are these all psychic types?)
Octillery: Blizzard, Fire Blast
Porygon-Z & Porygon-2: Blizzard, Thunder
Azelf: Thunder, Fire Blast
Lapras: Thunder, Blizzard

Not really a special sweeper but LickyLicky gets everything a gravity team could want.

Ignoring Ice Weak:
Dragonite: Thunder, Blizzard, & Fire Blast.
I actually used Choice Specs Dragonite w/ Draco Meteor, Thunder, Fire Blast, and Focus Punch on one of my Gravity teams.

Ignoring Ground Weak, but has resists/immunities:
Tyranitar: Blizzard, Thunder, Fire Blast


Also, is this for OU or ubers? Gravity teams actually work awesome in ubers because stuff like Palkia can just abuse it so easily because of it's move pool.

Hoped I helped a little. That's all I could remember from when I was searching for stuff for my own Gravity teams.
 
It's for CAP, actually. I wouldn't dream of using Gravity it couldn't last for 7 turns >.>

Lapras looks pretty good with Hydro Pump/Thunder/Blizzard and Sing, although I already have 3 other sleepers and TS should be up so (although with the new poke and all it probably won't last long, until I can destroy their Grounded Poisons.) that's a bit meh. I could always specs it and make the last move filler but I want to see how it goes first. I might not need to, or I may be forced to.

Ice weak is already huge thanks to Fidgit, Chomp and Tangrowth (mandatory heavily defencive Ground resist no? Also looking forward to Power Whip + Sleep Powder with high acc.). Ground weak shouldn't get any worse either :S
 
Why is Aerodactyl UU? Surely it should be BL. Also, with Husk's team becoming more popular, its usage would go up too.

What exactly is Little Cup? I've heard about it but I don't really know anything about it.

It's probably been asked a million times, but now that there's a Smogon server on Shoddy is Competitor still being worked on?

Unevolved Pokemon that have fully evolved forms battling at level 1 / 5.

Yes, it is being worked on and will be released tomorrow.

How does Counter work for a Pokemon that has Sub set up?
Click to expand...

Counter\Mirror Coat\Metal Burst fails if the attack hits a Substitute.

(Though if, say, Rock Blast breaks the Substitute and then hits the Counter user in the same turn, Counter will deal double damage of the last Rock Blast hit to hit the user.)
 
What's Husk's team?

and also, seeing how most people play with sleep clause on WiFi battles, how do you control that? I thought there were no settings.. so what happens if the opponent has already a pokemon asleep, and tries to use a sleeping move on me with another pokemon. So how do you work it out if I switch out into a Synchronizer and the opponent has 2 pokemons asleep?

This one is from a while ago: http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=42328
not sure if that's what you're looking for.

Sleep clause in wifi battles is just a matter of trust as there isn't a setting in the game that prevents the use or success of a second sleeping move. (I think the only game that has this implemented as an option is PBR). What usually happens if someone breaks sleep clause during a wifi battle is a disconnect (you shut off your DS) and that will cause the other player to blue screen and the battle to end in a draw. You'll usually see a d/c depending on the person they may overlook it if it was an honest mistake or something.
 
That depends on the nature, but I did timid for you:

Mew Lv. 30 Timid
HP 109
Atk 66
Def 74
Sp. Atk 74
Sp. Def 74
Speed 81

since it has base 100 everything neutral stats will be 74, + stats will be 81, - will be 66, and perfect HP will be 109 regardless of nature.

Use serebii's stat calculator: http://serebii.net/games/iv-calcdp.shtml
Type in 31 for every IV, leave evs blank, select mew and the nature you want, at the level you want and click "Calculate Stats"
 
Wouldn't it be more beneficial for a Wobbuffet to have a -Def or - SpDef nature, no EV's and a 0 IV in both Defense and Special Defense, and have 252 EV's and a 31 IV in HP? Then it takes more damage, thus dealing more.

Depends what it's nature is.
 
Does Tailwind last for 3 turns or 5 turns? Bulbapedia and Serebii say 5 turns but Smogon University says 3 turns. And if Smogon University is wrong, how do you send a requst for them to change it?
