Blaziken obtained a new ability in the Dream World called Speed Boost. Apparently this warrants it (Speed Boost Blaziken) to be banned from general game and moved to the Ubers Category.

Thanks for the reply :) I can see why that would make it Overpowered for the other tiers...
 
Aren't Deerling and Sawsbuck supposed to change with the season? It's Winter now and the Deerling I had captured last fall stayed in its fall form. I caught a new one for winter.

I also noticed this. I think your Sawsbuck stays in the form of wathever season you catched it in.
 
The problem being however that it is too fragile to stand on it's own in Ubers so really it's now got nowhere to go.

Not really, it can sweep quite nicely with base 120/110 offenses w/ 120BP STABs.

And a pokemon's viability in Ubers isn't really relevant regarding tiering anyway.

I was not in any way saying it wasn't viable as a sweeper as it's offences aren't something to be scoffed at. However any decent priority move that it doesn't resist is enough to deal with it. Extreme Speed from a Rayquaza for example. That being said I am sure it will find it's niche in there.

No. You have to have it in your party and then walk in/out of a building/etc. while the season changes.

It should change form then.


EDIT: Maybe it just changes form when the black screen tells you the season. Mine has changed form before, when I changed my DSi clock (Now my clock is normal time)
 
I know it's a stupid question, but the longer I wait to ask, the dumber I'll look.
I cannot for the life of me figure out how to change my sig. Help please? Haha.

I just tried.
I took my Sawsbuck out and he was still in Autumn form.
But then I saved and resetted my DS and he changed to Winter!

Yeah, it must be when the game tells you the season.

Also, your sig is quite funny as it implies that people obsessed with Pokemon even have boyfriends/girlfriends.

Have you seen some of the girls at VGC?
Oh my guanno, someone should shoe him that "VGC Girls" video from a while back."

Checkin' out the girls at VGC! VGC! lol
 
I apologize if this has been asked already, but does one need to do anything in particular for the new season to occur? It is obviously past March and yet my game still likes to think it is Autumn.

By the way, thinking of a semi-fifth and sixth pokemon for my stall team. Any suggestions? This is what I have so far:

Drapion
Ferrothorn
Gliscor
Gastrodon
A Ghost (Thinking Rotom or Spiritomb)
Sixth Pokemon

My girlfriend is obsessed with Pokemon. She is a much bigger nerd than me (not to say I am too much of a nerd). >~>; I would argue which one of us likes Pokemon more, however.

Have you checked your DS' internal clock/date?
It could be wrong therefore causing it to still be autumn, as the seasons are meant to change every month.

Huh, I just stepped outside and it is now Winter. "~" Strange that it waited a little bit first (oh, and the date is 4/2 on the game at this moment).

Not sure about the 6th but definitely run Spiritomb over Rotom.
1. I'm assuming this is fifth gen, so you would only be able to use Rotom's original form as a ghost.
2. Reuniclus destroys stall, but Spiritomb is one of his greatest counters.

Only point is that they need to be obsessed with it too, of course.
Also, say hi to this little toast. :toast:

It's quite obvious. Unless, you get lucky and you're with someone that doesn't give a fuck that you play Pokemon (Like Haydunn's girlfriend).

However, a question of my own. I have an offensive Reuniclus, Modest with 252HP/252SpA. It has Psychic/FocusBlast/HP-Fire/Recover. Should I replace HP-Fire with Calm Mind?

Thank you for your much-appreciated opinions.

I did not know Spiritomb was Reuniclus's counters. Should I use a CBTomb or ResTalk? I am aware I would have to use original Rotom in order to retain the Ghost-type, but I thought some Electric attacks could come in handy.

What sort of Gliscor do you suppose I should use? I was going to put Stealth Rock on it, but I suppose I could use that on Ferrothorn if I forego Spikes on my team.

For the last slot, I had considered a Wish-Passer and/or a Heal Bell/Aromatherapy user. From the looks of things, another Fighting resist and a Fire resist would be nice, perhaps something that resists Water and Ground as well.
