  1. This set is useless, dude. One does not simply run a Sash pokemon without a spinner. That and his Scarf set is fine as is.
  2. Honchkrow: Look, kitties, I don't know how you play this but something don't add up.

  3. I never trust a guy who has ever had Justin Bieber as an avatar. Anyway... You're running too much Grass, a type with defensive liabilities. Keep either Sceptile or Lilligant and axe the other in favor of Cobalion. Yes, I do know it's my favorite legendary, and I'm not playing favorites here (although it did come to mind quickly), but it has a few key things that the rest of your team doesn't have, the biggest of which being key 4x resistances to Bug (takes care of that problem), Rock (hits everything else neutral or better), and Dark (Potential problem for Cofagrigus, and Cobalion has Justified too) while being immune to Poison (and thus immune to Toxic Spikes), so it makes one of the best switch-ins in the game. Here, try this set. Overall team rating, as it stands right now, is 7.5/10

    Banned for going back and forth with Light, which is against the rule, for almost three pages until Roo the Baka stepped in.
  5. Unce Unce Unce BOOM! Genesect-D @ Douse Drive Trait: Download EVs: 100 Atk / 156 SAtk / 252 Spd Hasty Nature (+Spd, -Def) - U-turn / X-Scissor - Techno Blast - Thunder / Thunderbolt - Rock Polish / Flame Charge If you're going to use Techno Blast, use this set. It's very viable in rain, in which Genesect is best. [b]U-turn[/b] makes Genesect a scout, and is a necessity on almost every one of this bug's sets, although for pure offense [b]X-Scissor[/b] might be more desirable. [b]Techno Blast[/b], with a [b]Douse Drive[/b], gets double the power in rain and can become immensely powerful if Genesect gets blessed with a Sp. Atk boost from Download. [b]Thunder[/b] is a great move in rain, but [b]Thunderbolt[/b] arguably is better in other weather, especially sun. [b]Rock Polish[/b] increases Genesect's Speed, but in other weathers [b]Flame Charge[/b] might be a more desirable option as it increases Speed and deals damage at the same time.
  6. And now for something completely different! P.S. Toxicity is one of my favorite albums. I recommend it.
  7. Dude, Beartic actually IS a good Swift Swim Poke.
  8. What Washman said. I do think that Beartic is a good idea. Perhaps in the place of...hell I don't know. Also gives you a physical attacker, and you need some more physical presence here. I would use this for Beartic: EDIT: Love what you did with Tornadus.
  9. Chiming in... Donphan is not someone that you want to look to in rain. If it comes down to Donphan in a tight situation, it will drop very quickly as a result of people saying "hey, let's abuse some Water attacks!" The best spinner to use in rain is by far Tentacruel. I'd give Jirachi an Air Balloon. That covers one of its weaknesses while the other weakness is covered by the rain.
  10. well...fuck this. I've more or less been betrayed by one of my closest friends.

      This kind of treachery requires a knife in the kidney or a stake through the heart. Your choice.

      I like what Kiozo's offering me. A lot.

  11. If you mean the alias I use on the server, it's Ryan C.
  12. Welcome back, here's some important people to know besides the auth. Inuki: This guy's a troll. Steer clear of him when you can. crep: If you face this guy in a rated battle and aren't prepared, you'll 9/10 times lose. He has a team built around Baton Passing Minimizes. Be ready with some kind of weapon to counter statups. TheScarletSword: If you're into anime, this guy runs a live stream of different animes. He just finished Dragon Ball Z, not sure which one he's doing now. Talk to him and you can get some more info. Ryan C: Oh hey! That's me! Anyway, come to me if you want any teambuilding help. I consider myself a great teambuilder and an even better teacher, but if you've been here before, chances are you won't need too much help! Also, I should say the forum called Trainer's Journal - it's the best way to better connect with and get to know dudes like myself, Hark, etc. Again, you might have known that; I'm just saying that incase you didn't know. See ya 'round!

    Banned for having a Missingno in your trainer card.
  14. I suspect there will be more; it's just that it seems to be just what's revealed right now. On the other hand, it could also be a case of "fuck this shit, 15+ starters is WAY too many." remember guys that Serebii is getting more info every day on the game.
  15. Don't listen to this dude, I agree with Roo the Baka - although Genesect gets outsped by Speed-natured base 100s such as Salamence and Ninetales, it still hits incredbily hard keeping in mind the EV investment of Pokemon with equal defenses, which will trigger an Attack boost meaning all of a sudden you're hitting at 2.25x the power. You should, nevertheless, pack a special move incase you get the SP. Atk boost from Download. (I suggest Flamethrower.)
  16. They call me the reckless brave bird.

      I call you dinner.

  17. If you're looking for a surprise for Crep, Chandelure learns Haze. That works every time against him, no matter what he throws out. And one more thing. You should be using Explosion on Genesect as it has more power. The only Pokemon that should ever use Selfdestruct is Snorlax, but that's because he can't learn Explosion. Dude, what are you saying? It's totally credible. Easy there, man.
  18. Chiming in. What's Chandy's item? I'm assuming Choice Scarf noting the moves but I dunno. A Fighter is something the team could use. May I suggest Virizion? It can wipe out entire rain/sand teams on its own (watch out for Tornadus) and it can learn Synthesis. A good fit for your team considering half your team gets a chunk taken out of them each switch-in from Stealth Rock. If entry hazards are a problem, then you should replace Cresselia with a spinner, of course Espeon or Xatu. Depends on what you want as a side function from your Pokemon; but knowing you I'd choose Espeon as it is not an offensive slouch. If stalling is what you're trying to accomplish with Umbreon, it looks like it could work...barely. It can't take a fast Bug Buzz/Drain Punch/other super effective move well. With a team like yours, I strongly going with a support set instead that sees max Sp. Def investment and moves like Heal Bell instead of Snarl. The only side effect is that Genesect can pick it off, but throw Chandy in the way to take the blow. The U-turn effect will ultimately force a sacrifice of sorts upon the other team, as it's forced to put something in front of a Shadow Tag Pokemon.

    Oh...thank you. Anyway, Erick's banned for misspelling "Stealth Rock".
  21. Kyurem-B Makes No Sense, Like Shouldn't It Be Able to Learn Earthquake? Kyurem-B @ Life Orb Trait: Teravolt EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Dragon Claw - Fusion Bolt - Ice Beam - Roost The great thing about Kyurem-B is that it has 95 base speed, which means that it will, albeit narowly, outspeed most other Pokemon in Ubers. This is a great advantage when you think about it. Dragon Claw is the main attack and STAB. Fusion Bolt is there to take out non-Scarf Kyogre before it has a chance to Spout all over Kyurem. These two attacks will have a hard time of hitting Excadrill, so Ice Beam does some solid neutral damage. Life Orb damage will rack up before you know it, so Roost gives a chance to recover some damage, although it's like Hydreigon where it is too easily revenged.
