Hey Guys,
Can someone tell me who put up the Room Intro code on the showdown server for NU room?
1) If someone wanted that code, to modify or copy and then use it. They should have asked the guy who created it. In this case it is me. You can verify it, by checking out my name on the last line.
2) If someone was smart enough to remove it, then it is pure Plagiarism.
3) It is not that you guys are using it for the room intro, infact we are a community so we all can share each other's work. But the fact that no one talked to me about it, or the fact that no one even tried.
Anyways, the intro looks cool and I have one suggestion. Pawniard is appearing on LC room too and doesn't go well with the shake twins (they are cool ~_~ ). You might want to reconsider that, everything else is cool.
Just wanted to let you guys know that informing is good.

Just replying to this so people know that this has all been worked out.
Yup Raseri is a cool dude if I may say so and a great leader. NU is gifted ;)
-------------------
But one thing is not settled yet. Please reconsider changing Pawniard :P
i need a replacement for my Shiftry. Which are the best spinners/defog users in the tier?
Thanks, man. I'll be using Sandslash for now.
Should I run signal beam or grass knot on my Plusle?
I suggest not running Plusle. But Grass Knot.
Plusle is an ok option for nastypassing, but where are many better nasty passers like togetic/volbeat. I would recommend you to use them over plusle. If you are seeking a sweeper then sub np or np raichu is better :) with good speed and little high special attack or even lightball pikachu is better.
Raichu @ Life Orb
Ability: Lightningrod
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Nasty Plot
- Thunderbolt
- Focus Blast
- Grass Knot
What are some RU Pokemon that may come to NU?
Hitmonchan and Claydol are projected to drop, while Spiritomb, Gurdurr, and Omastar are projected to rise. There might be a few I forgot though
Claydol probably won't drop, the RU ladder is absolutely awful and loves using garbage mons. Claydol is way more than bad enough to drop, but if being terrible in RU meant dropping to NU, then a lot more stuff would be dropping (especially Ambipom, which will probably never drop despite being D rank material). However, there are a couple other mons that might drop, such as Whimsicott, Kabutops (even though it's like 10 times better than both hitmonchan and claydol lol), and maybe Tyrantrum (again, if the RU ladder stops being so bad). Also, Weezing is definitely good enough to rise and probably has a decent chance to as well.
Also it's worth noting that the chance of Omastar not rising is approximately zero, while the other two you listed have a decent chance of staying in NU.
The Pokemon with the Highest chance to drop from RU is Kabutops, which will do so if its usage decreases a little bit (maybe even stays the same?)
There is a 5% chance of finding thick clubs on wild cubones/marowaks, and sr marowak is only available through bw2 move tutor
thanks is there a trade board where someone could get me one since i dont have bw/bw2?
try the wifi room of pokemon showdown
I use a competitive modest wiggly with specs 252 hp/252 sp att
It has hyper voice, dazzling gleam, ice beam and flamethrower but i can tell you it aint that impressive
Wigglytuff is actually a surprisingly viable Wish Passer. While it may seem outclassed by the likes of Audino and Lickilicky, Wigglytuff does in fact carry the boon of passing the largest wish in the tier. While this isn't anything to scoff at, its not really much, and in general I would use Audino, Lickilikcy, Slurpuff, etc. way before it due to its horrendous defenses. Regardless, here is the set.
Wigglytuff @ Leftovers
Ability: Cute Charm
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Dazzling Gleam
- Protect
- Wish
- Heal Bell / Stealth Rock

Why not just run BB, return, uturn AND quick attack?
Also, I should probably warn you that you shouldn't be using pidgeot in the first place Swellow can run the exact same set with a higher attack and speed (and that's not even Swellow's best set).
Thanks im aware that swellow completely outclasses pidgeot but i was gifted a 5iv one. Also o thought steel wing would be good coverage for rock and ice types that wreck him. The set you said is its standard set that's why i wanted to know if the coverage was viable (i also know SW has pretty low BP though)
