ECHOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I absolutely hate the weather wars. It's pretty much the main reason I don't play much anymore. Rain and Sand barely balance each other as it is. And there sun is too add in some extra annoyance. If I'm not running rain, I'm virtually forced to run Tyranitar, and vice versa. I know it's not...

I had a problem with this, and realized it was because i was trying to connect to mysteryzone when i should be connecting to syntaxnode. This was using Mibbit btw, i had no problems with this on mIRC.

It's impossible to tell a person everything there is to know about a certain, or even 10%. The best way like TDL said is to just throw together a team and start playing. You won't do to great at the start, but it's the best way to learn. The more you play, the more you'll learn, and the...

Banned for misspelling "banned."

I actually tried using Archeops in Pride's tourny here, and it was quite underwhelming. Sure he does a lot of damage, but it's extremely hard use it more than 1-2 times. If you try to use Acrobatics like I did, you basically sacrifice the use of an item, aside from the first Flying Gem boost...

There is also no way that Ditto is switching in on Blaziken, especially if against Hi Jump Kick. If you're switching in off of a kill, you've already lost something. Even then, Ditto has no sure fire way of killing Blaziken as Blazekin can just switch out to live another day. Plus he was...

To be perfectly honest, I haven't been nearly as involved in Gen 5 as I should be, but I'll share my thoughts. I've never had much trouble with Blaziken, and am fairly surprised he got banned over the other suspects like Deoxys-S, Latios, and Excadrill. My teams tend to always be stacked...

RE: March Madness FINAL 4: Butler, UCONN, VCU, and UK! What is this madness? My bracket is so utterly horrible. Somehow I'm still tied for 5th out of 30 in my dorms bracket tourny. My Final 4 was UConn and every other 1st seed, with OSU and Pitt in the finals. Of course I didn't have VCU...

Smogon has them banned as well, unless you were on the Dream World ladder, but that's not what Smogon's standard ladder is. One of the things I love using now is CB Terrakion. That thing already hits insanely hard, and the only thing really stopping it is Gliscor. Close Combat and Stone Edge...

Ah alright, I hadn't caught that. If you don't have Multiscale, I would just go with DD and 3 attacks. If you still want Roost, and the decision is Earthquake or Fire Punch, I don't see Balloon Pokemon as a good argument to use Fire Punch. With Heatran, you won't be beating it with Fire Punch...

You can still break the balloon with Dragon Claw, then OHKO with Earthquake. Otherwise, good luck beating it with Dclaw. For a Dragon Dance / Dragon Claw / Earthquake / Roost set, I would run Adamant with 252 HP / 52 Atk / 204 Speed. You want 252 HP to abuse Roost and Multiscale as much as...

RE: In-game Team Rates I would definitely give Samurott Ice Beam over Hydro Cannon. Your team doesn't have any Ice-type moves, and Hydro Cannon is pretty bad since it leaves you helpless for one turn, while you can use Surf twice in a row to get a lot more damage. On Excadrill, you already...

I would probably use Earthquake over fire punch and brick break. The only things you don't hit are Skarmory, Bronzong with levitate, and Shedinja. Brick Break doesn't hit any of those hard enough, and with Fire Punch, you lose coverage against Heatran which is really important. Earthquake...

RE: The Competitive Battling Questions Thread I don't think Rotation battles are even programmed into Pokemon Online. Triple battles can be done, but happen very rarely.

The analyses on Smogon only really show what the most popular sets are. They aren't there to show people what to use. It's one thing to read up on competitive battling, but it's another to actually battle. You can read all you want, but what it actually comes down to is getting out there...

RE: PokeBeach's Official Ban List They don't have the same base stats. Latios has 80/90/80/130/110/110, while Latias has 80/80/90/110/130/110 (HP/Atk/Def/Sp Atk/Sp Def/Spe). Even though they have the same base stat total, that still means virtually nothing in terms of their respective power...

RE: PokeBeach's Official Ban List Pride using offense? Obviously he's bsing. Anyways, how about we wait until Eccentric Ditto is released and this issue becomes relevant? Maybe it's just me, but banning a Pokemon from a metagame that it hasn't been a part of doesn't seem right.

RE: PokeBeach's Official Ban List The way Smogon testing works, to be banned, a Pokemon needs a super majority vote (66%), or two simple majority votes (50% +1). Like Chillarmy said, Deoxys-N, Shaymin-S, and Darkrai were all banned, as well as Deoxys-A, with a supermajority. Manaphy only...

Nice stuff. I kinda stole your team but made a few changes due to preference and Aldaron's proposal.
