General Introduce yourself!

So how would you go about getting the legendaries that dont come in your version of the game? I need the alpha sapphire ones to get a couple more but i also want some from the older generations. I dont jave someone to clone with to make extra legendaries and i only have a couple shinies which i was hoping to hold onto...
 
Also, if you breed a shiny pokemon, will you get a shiny pokemon baby or a normal one?

I might be posting a bit much here >_>
 
Hello guys, I´m Durandal, a guy from the caribbean who´s 23 years old.

I started playing Pokemon competitive in gen 5, back when B2&W2 came out and since then I have been playing both here and on Battle Spot/friends on gen 6. I play mostly OU/UU and sometimes RU, but recently I find myself really interested on VGC because I like the actual VGC format, there are so many mons that I like available at the moment.

Feel free to give me a shout if you wanna play some battles :)
Heya Durandal!
Welcome to Smogon! By the way, you should visit the "Over/Under/RarelyUsed/VGC" rooms in Showdown have you not already, as you can sometimes learn more from the discussions there. If you have any quick questions, ask here for now; otherwise, have fun!
 
Hi there fellas, newbie from Germany speaking. I used to play pokemon back in first gen, and only started playing again last december. Now, I already know a thing or two about competetive battling, but there is still lots of stuff (and pokimins) that i dont know about.
So, I`ve been trying to build a decent team for a while now. Im only dead set on 2 pokemon so far (weaville and goodra) and not so sure about the rest. To be honest i have no clue where to ask how to properly build my team from here. Is it okay to post in the teamrating subforum when i just know this much?
Anyway, nice to meet you all.... and stuff^^
 
Hello everyone! I'm Faitsu.
I've been playing pokemon ever since generation 3 and played competitivly during gen 5. I play in the OU format mostly and play a bit of Ubers and UU, though recently I've been taking a break and have just been playing random battles...if you want to battle me just tell me though an I'll be glad to battle.

Hi somer!
You can PM a mentor of the tier you're looking to teambuild in for some help. As for the RMT subforum, I would recommend finishing your team (which can be done pretty quickly with the help of a mentor) before posting. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask for now; have fun!

Hey Faitsu!
I've also been playing since Gen 3! You can visit the rooms of those tiers if you would like to gain some insight on them and discuss strategies, etc. Have a good time and I'll see you around!

Hello there, welcome :) A real 3rd gen starter I see. I love the fact you may have your first Pokémon with you all over in gen 6. Maybe we can battle sometimes. Have fun out here!
 
Hi, I'm notaraptor. I've played competitive since when Black and White 2 came out. I played OU, UU and Ubers a lot in 5th gen, but now I've been mainly just playing Battlespot singles.

Hey notaraptor!
Hmm, I'm pretty sure you are a raptor. Are you sure you're not? Anyway, visit the "OU, UU, and Ubers" rooms in Showdown should you feel like you want help or just want to learn. Same goes for Battlespot. If you have any questions, feel free to ask here for now; otherwise, have a good time!


Also, please give us your feedback when you can. Thanks!

Hiya SquirtleFB!
Want an opponent to face? Showdown's the place! If you need help with anything, no matter how queer, check out our help form right over here. In case you didn't notice, I sometimes like to rhyme, so ignore me if you want, but have a good time! :D

I've got a lot hair and not many claws for a raptor so I don't think so. Thanks for the tips.
 
First of all, thanks for the reply mate^^. Apparently you put a lot of work into greeting us newcomers. I appreciate it.

Now, sorry for going full retard, but where exactly can i write personal messages on this website? i can only find the option to directly post on... walls.
 
Well, it's been a while.

Used to be around here in the DPP days (under a different account), imagine my surprise to come back to the OU and find staples like Blissey and Infernape in the UU.

Considering getting back into the game, although I have obviously much to learn about new the moves and just how much Fairy shaked up the Metagame (I mean Azumarill in the OU? What the hell?).

Interested to see how Sub-Petaya Empolion fits into todays sweepers

Thanks, I really try to help newcomers as much as I can. :)
As for PMing someone, you can click their avatar, then click Start a Conversation. From there on, it's pretty much self-explanatory. :]

Hey TheStrictNein!
Yeah, luckily for me, I started in Gen 6 (right after XY came out), so I didn't have to learn one thing only for me to return and have to relearn a lot. Fairy has had a substantial impact on the metagame, but for each tier it's different. You can visit the tiers of those you wish to learn about and/or get involved in their forum sections here at Smogon. If you need any help, you can ask here for the time being, but you can also check out our help form. Have a great time, and I'll see you around!
 
Hey everybody I'm new to smogon but I've been playing Pokemon since Red and Blue. My name is Christian, I'm 23 and am looking to get into the competitive scene. I kind of stumbled onto this site when I was doing some research into tips for team composition and it really has been a lot of informative reading. Waiting on round 93 of the tutoring program to see if I can get a spot right now and going through the dex just soaking up as much information as possible. Just put 110 hours into OR in the past two weeks and I'm getting ready to push through X. Really excited to be here even if I'm just lurking discussions, hit me up if you wanna chat.
