Holy shit. Not sure what you're hinting at there, but she is kinda creepy. Whoever she was.

I got this one. It's Weavile. Right?

Dangerous Li'l Ball of Fluff Whimsicott (M) @ Choice Specs Trait: Chlorophyll / Prankster EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) / Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Giga Drain / Grass Knot / SolarBeam - Hurricane / Hidden Power [Fire] - Hidden Power [Fighting] / Shadow Ball - Switcheroo 77 base Special Attack isn't much, but Whimsicott still knows how to be a pain in the ass with it. Here's a set of offense. It's essentially a hit and run kind of deal. This dude is about as hit-and-run as they come. Why so many options? Well, the moves you ought to choose vary vastly with which weather you are running with Whimsicott, or if you're even running weather at all. Even the ability choice comes down to the weather, as obviously you wouldn't have [b]Chlorophyll[/b] on a rain team, you'd have [b]Prankster[/b]. Of course, Prankster might be more useful for priority trade-off of [b]Choice Specs[/b] to really screw up that Conkeldurr (and whatever else may be thrown at it, like Blaziken). [b]Giga Drain [/b]is a universal choice regardless of weather, but you could run [b]Grass Knot[/b] to make it a better lead or [b]SolarBeam[/b] for more consistent damage in sunlight. [b]Hidden Power [Fire] [/b]is the move choice to abuse sun; likewise for [b]Hurricane[/b] in rain. [b]Hidden Power [Fighting] [/b]gets some fancy coverage with Hurricane,while [b]Shadow Ball[/b] will be for Chandelure and when you have [Fire] as your Hidden Power choice. [b]Switcheroo[/b] gets rid of your fancy glasses in favor of crippling a wall like Blissey.

You're probably using the function that takes a PO export file to fill out a trainer card. Which, actually, has got a bug or two. If you put it in manually, it will get it right every time.

I'm happy I'll be able to catch a Pikachu in the wild again. I missed having that, since it wasn't in Black: carrying a Pikachu around just to be cool.

As I have this topic open, I run into two shinies in Black 2 in the span of a couple of hours, this topic is cursed... A shiny Yanmega in the challenge rock area and a shiny Frillish at Undella Bay. Damn Weavile critted with Night Slash and killed Yanmega (wasted my Dusk Balls on Lapras), but I managed to catch the Frillish. In somewhat unrelated stuff, I fought a shiny Emboar once in WiFi. And man, he looks cool.

Are you ready for Phoenix?

But personally, I think option 1 works better. In all seriousness though, taking a step back and looking at it all I am behind the decisions made 1000%. This needed to happen and it did. The boosting was indeed excessive in the lower tiers; somehow He Who Shall Not Be Named managed to get an insane ladder score even though I flattened him once and can't remember losing to him often if at all. (I didn't do that good overall but that's besides the point.) Overall? Best possible outcome. We just have to promote the living daylights out of the CS tier and we're in business. This gets two thumbs up, Ame. Maybe three if I can find another.

Ikaru will never be a comedian as far as I can tell. Inuki: Vi likes dangerous *** [星] Latios gives Anna a cat *** +Ikaru: yeah pretty much [Mys]Ceres The Leaf won against [星] Ryan C. +Ikaru: She's kind of *** Ikaru sunglasses *** Inuki: the best kind of person Inuki: <3 Neon Green: no +Ikaru: Violent Neon Green: fak u ika Sapphire: Ikaru Inuki: done Sapphire: no Neon Green: gtfo Inuki: /kick ikaru Inuki: /ban Ikaru Inuki: Get out Neon Green: I quit [Reborn]Anna: ...I don't get it... Neon Green: forever [星] Ryan C: that joke was clearly uncalled for

The above death, as much sense as I am not getting out of it...still sounds pretty scary. Here's some more. /pd couldn't hit the minimizing Drifblim... /pd was destroyed by Ghetsis's Hydreigon! /pd was haxed by Haxorus.

I'm here. - Regarding Heracross: JSC is a bro. However, if you're going to run Earthquake, perhaps you will want Stone Edge or Rock Slide. The power of Night Slash...isn't enough, honestly. That and if you are forced to switch in on Tornadus or some other flier you have no way to defend yourself before the inevitable Hurricane / Brave Bird / Air Slash sees Heracross meet its maker. - Regarding Volcarona: this might be the weirdest Volcarona set I've ever seen. I have always thought that high-defense EVs would only belong with a Sun Volcarona that utilized Morning Sun as recovery. Also that Rest gives another Pokemon a chance to set up or destroy Volcarona from the physical side. But in the end, you know what purpose the fire moth is serving here better than me. - Regarding additions: Did you consider Yanmega? Considering its nice Special Attack, the fact that you'll be spinning away Stealth Rock, and such, it fits nicely onto a team that takes Earthquakes neutral except Hercaross. Doesn' sound like a big deal, but it will be a pain in the ass when Landorus-T shows up Scarfed and ready to play. 9/10 is my rating. Nice one bro.

My first shiny...well, it took me until Emerald to get it. I found it in the Artisan Cave.

Any leader that wants to. Usually, it will be just Terra and Titania, but even Sigmund laid Stealth Rock down on me before. So anything is possible. But also beware of Toxic Spikes, Spikes, that sort of thing. Since you have nothing that can absorb Toxic Spikes or even be immune to poison, you're inevitably going to face a problem because of it.

Ha-har. You asked, I answered. Having Starmie go on a full-frontal assault sounds plausible, but when you look at the rest of the team you've got two choice users, one of them weak to Stealth Rock, and no way to absorb Toxic Spikes. You gotta give Starmie Rapid Spin - perhaps in the place of Grass Knot considering the fact that you have more than enough Grass presence on your team. You have no way to avoid Ground-type attacks. Even though Breloom and Serperior both resist, you still will want something that Chandy can switch into. This team gets 8.5/10. Some notable weaknesses in the team that be exposed with pokemon like Mamoswine.,but all in all this has nice overall STAB coverage and that will go a long way for you in League.

Are you ready for Phoenix?

Hey guys, just in case stuff gets released earlier on the Japanese site due to time zones, have your Google Translators ready. This news likely won't be on Serebii due to the site being in the UK, but if someone can remind me later on tonight by forum pm or something, I'll fetch what I can find Here's how I see it: - WiiU Stadium/colosseum-style game: by a mile the most likely option. How they plan to evolve Pokemon in this case, it will be very interesting, but it would at the very least involve the WiiU's many ways to interact with players. - 6th Gen: not as likely, but definitely a possibility. However, announcing it only two years after 5th Gen's international introduction would be premature. - Hoenn remakes: This in my eyes becomes less and less of a possibility every day. Sounds viable, but the Regis were released in BW2, as were Lati@s. That and the weather trio's appearance in HGSS not too long ago would also kind of discourage it. - Pokemon Ranger game: one of the Dark Horse candidates. I say that because Pokemon Ranger is very easy to toy with because of the standing of the series's gameplay. - related to PMD: I doubt it. If it were an announcement about that, CoroCoro, Serebii, or Bulbapedia would have long beaten them. - iOS game: the fact that they said they would "evolve Pokemon", combined with the fact that they released Pokedex for iPhone/iPad, this is a possibility, disappointing as it may be come release. PS I don't believe that wandering graphic designer thing one bit.

Getting to see these guys in concert with the Black Keys is one of my life's greatest investments And fuck it, it's VGM time Anyone who has played the above game agrees that music is by far the best in the game and one of the best Nintendo's ever made. Remake, but it's far better than the original

Hey, there. Signing up even though my attendance is not 100% guaranteed.

Reborn, I guess it would be Amaria based on the battle's I've seen. In-game, definitely Koga. He's such a boss.
