Well I'm running Specially defensive Ninetails, Sawsbuck, Slowbro with emphasis on physical bulk, specially defensive Heatran, CM Latias, and Mamo. I realized I probably worded my question wrong. What I'm asking is, is the CScarf set a good revenger or does he really need that extra power provided by CBand/Life Orb. And since I dislike CBand and Life Orb's drawbacks, would running an Expert Belt work?

Since you want it to be a revenger, it really needs the added speed of a Choice Scarf. It doesn't really outspeed many common offensive mons without. Band is better for taking out defensive mons.
 
Choice Band and Life Orb are kind of heavy hitter sets to smash walls and also revenge stuff like Thundurus, whereas the Scarf set is a dedicated revenger but will be somewhat of a dead weight against stall.
 
hello how exactly do i get to IRC i do not understand anything there i logged in and everything but i do not know how to get to the #smgon thingy? also it is very...............ugly to say the least can someone help me and give me the details please.
 
I have a quick question about the Dream World: Is there ANY way to get the points faster to unlock different area's ? I've been going on the Dream World site for like a week and a half and I STILL haven't unlocked the sky area with DW Gligar, or the undersea area with DW Slowpoke ... I can't even finish my team without them either .. :/

Have you checked out this page: here

It has a general guide on how to get on and such

I generally prefer mibbit since it's in browser and you just have to select the synirc network and go to smogon, the most annoying part is registering your username on the chat, which needs a password and an email, after that it's flying colours.

Get lots of dream pals, water their berries, leave good stuff on your share shelf, play lots of games and do well, and bring back pokemon. That's all you can do. It takes 2500 points to get to the flying area, while the most you can realistically get in a day is around 400, so it takes a while. The undersea area is 7500 iirc, so it will take a lot longer. If you don't have the patience to get them yourself, I would suggest trading for them.
 
That's probably what I'm going to end up doing, thanks for clearing it up. Next time I will be sure to be patient and wait for the question, I'm just new to the forums is all ...
 
I have a question about trading, it might sound a little dumb.
Now, first off, when people make trade threads using Action replay to clone, and if I trade for such pokemon, can I use it in Wi-Fi battling? Or does that count as using a "Hacked" pokemon ? Also, if I create a trade thread and start trading such "Action Replay" pokemon, can I trade for just regular, RNG breeded one's ? Also, if I clone a pokemon using AR, can I use it in Wi-Fi ? Or is that "Cheating"?

It is not cheating altough it IS cheating if it has illegal moves and such you can use themthey are just Cloned so no harm in using them

Yes Yes you can trade for RNGed ones

Using cloned versions of legal Pokémon is acceptable

You can trade clones of legal Pokémon for other legal Pokémon. Illegally made Pokémon can never be traded on Smogon

Also, if I clone a pokemon using AR, can I use it in Wi-Fi ? Or is that "Cheating"?
That's also acceptable
 
Simple question, didn't find (or just overlooked) the answer after a quick search.

I fight an Audino, who gievs 2 HP ev. If 2 pokemon participate in the fight, do they each gain 2 ev, or is it split between them?
Also, if split, how do EVs interact with items like Exp. Share and Power Weight?
 
Any Pokemon that gets experience gets the full amount of EV's. So both get two.
The Exp. Share allows Pokemon to not fight and still get EV's. The Power Items give 4 additional of their respective EV's stats.
 
Since Jirachi is Scarf, you might want to make Tyranitar 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD Sassy with Stealth Rock / Crunch / Pursuit / Fire Blast and a Chople Berry. That way, Reuniclus doesn't shit on you.
 
How good is Flying as a type in this metagame? What are the pros and cons of it? And what are notable flying type pokemon?

Edit: Technician Breloom looks like an awesome mon to run. What are good moves/sets for him? Bullet seed is awesome, it has over 100 base power when hitting only 2 times. And I'm thinking Low Sweep would be a good move for him? It has 135 from stab tech, and lowering the opponents speed one stage is very useful as breloom's max speed is 262 :(

Basically, flying is good for the ground immunity and fighting resistance, but the rock (and therefore Stealth Rock) weakness can be an issue. Notable flying-types in OU are Thunderus, Skarmory, Gliscor, and in rain, Tornadus.
 
Alright, I have 2 questions.

1. Action Replay and other devices to clone pokemon: Are pokemon cloned with AR allowed to be used in Wi-Fi Battles, but not in Tournaments? If so, must you RNG for Tournaments, but regular battles you can use cloned pokemon ?

2. Siggie: It's going to sound stupid but ... how do you put your FC in your sig? Cuz I haven't seen edit sig in my profile, so where is it ?
