  1. I remember some troll wanting to cream my UU team with his Uber team on PO. I ignored him the first two time, but he just kept requesting to battle. I really wish I could've seen his face when I pretty much owned him with just a Slowking. As for Xerneas, I've had plenty of people rage quit on me when my Choice Scarf Mewtwo uses Trick on it.
  2. Actually, that first part isn't a bad idea and it's Miracle Eye, not foresight. I don't think adjusting Dark/Ghost Type powers would make sense (or make a difference) in this environment. If you want to make Radomus harder, give Trick Room a much higher priority (add plus 8 to make it equivalent to quick attack) to make it go first or just make it permanent. Iron Balls could then be equipped to Radomus's Pokemon (if they're not already) making them always go first.
  3. And that's why Hounchkrow is on my team. It can deal heavy damage and be death fodder at the same time. As for strongest fairy, Whimsicott for me. I use one PO which I call LotT (Lord of the Trolls). I'm so sad he's been removed from Reborn because I tend to use a Leech Seed strategy.
  4. Wait, Stealth Rocks isn't an TM anymore. If we're running on Ame logic, that won't stop her though. (I'm pretty sure Terra will have Big Top anyways). I really wish this could be put into Pokemon Online for like a week for that very reason. The chaos it would create is unimaginable.
  5. Nah, that's too good. I'd expect Feebas, but the prism scale not being available until late in the game. On a serious note, I could see Remoraid filling the role quite nicely. Octillery is a very underrated Pokemon.
  6. Sigh, I hate it when this Pokemon comes up. To start off, Fire/Flying is a terrible match-up. The reason why Talonflame is so good is because of Speed and Priority. 100 Speed is fast, but he doesn't have the strength to back himself up. In fact, Typhlosion is a better option than him because he's an exact copy without flying allowing him to take more hits. Both of those pokemon are strong, but they're definite outclassed by so many fire types I can't even count them all (Ninetales, Volcarona, Blaziken, Arcanine, Infernape, Chandelure, etc). Worst of all, to use him in this A tier strategy, you have to bring another Fire Type. He's a good pokemon I won't lie, but he's not something you can count on for everything. It's the flying type that hurts him. Yes, he's resistant to Earthquake, but 90% of ground types carry a rock move making it hurt more than help gaining more weaknesses. Literally, I could argue he should be moved down a tier, but let's just give him B tier until mega evolutions are implemented. Then we can move him to A or even S. On a brighter note, I'll tier his rival Blastoise. Blastoise Badges: 0/??? Tier: B Stats: Good Movepool: Great Seriously, I was shocked how good this pokemon could be. Literally, he took 20 hits from Aya and 35 hits from the old hax Serra. Did I mention I only use Super Potions (and leech seed...Cherrim FTW). Squirtle is a bit of a pain, but when it evolves, it starts to become useful. This isn't one for the offensive type users as you rarely go all out with this one. Iron Defense and Protect are very useful on him because it allows him to stall. Even flinch moves like Aqua Tail and Bite add up to this pokemon's time on the field. I can only rank him B (barely) because he'll slow down your battle quite a bit. There will also be some rough spots until he gets his really good moves. If you're willing to go through the rough spots, you'll find an excellent and very underrated mon. It seems someone didn't tier their choices. Based on their description, I'd give Azumarill A tier and Ambipom B tier since breeding doesn't seem much of a hassle.
  7. IMO Venusaur or Amoongus (or whatever that mushroom is called) would really help your team because you lack a status move. Leech Seed and Sleep Powder/Spore make this battle so much easier and bearable. More importantly, get a heart scale (I had 10 at this point) and teach Donphan Bulldoze or level him up to 46 for earthquake and delevel him. He's going to be your main this fight.
  8. B/W has a better story (still not that great though), but B/W 2 has a lot more content...I mean a lot more. While it's not as good as Emerald/Platinum's Battle Frontier, you can do a Colosseum like Mt. Battle place called Black City/White Tower, play the Game in Challenge Mode (please bring this back), or face gym leaders from all the regions in the Pokemon World Tournament.
  9. Is this the old Serra or the new Serra? New Serra isn't as bad. Old Serra was the hax queen. I had my Cherrim (get at my level) set up a Sunny Day and then began to sweep her team (I don't want to even count the resets it took to do that). All that was left was her Glaceon and I needed to hit her once to win. 20 minutes later, I lost the battle and had to start over. That Glaceon dodged 40 attacks in a row. I wanted to cry when I finally got that badge.
  10. Now I cannot unsee this. Picture the rose as a giant nose. (Did I just make a rhyme?)
  11. I've used some very weird Pokemon so I might be able to help with this. I feel any of these pokemon can be used, but ranking them is a bit hard. Lanturn Tier: D Availability: Somewhat Early Stats: Poor Movepool: Okay Despite it's terrible stats and shallow movepool, it's a very decent Pokemon early game. While it can't hit that hard, it gains confuse ray and charge beam. What this thing can do is take special hits like no tomorrow. If you need a wall, it's not a bad option. Manectric Tier: C Availability: Very Early Stats: Average Movepool: Good the biggest issue with Manetric is that it doesn't learn anything useful early and it's best moves are from TMs (Overheat). Thunder Wave combined with it's good speed is useful for halting threats. If it had a better attack stat, I'd definitely give it a higher rank. Typhlosion Tier: C Availability: Very Early/Late Stats: Average Movepool: Poor I was surprised by this Pokemon. While it is overshadowed by it's Fire/Fighting successors, it's not a bad Pokemon. If you need a hard hitting, speedy fire type, Typhlosion is an excellent choice. Roserade Tier: A Availability: Somewhat Late Stats: Good Movepool: Poor This Pokemon is great at three things: Poison, Recovering, and Hitting hard. Leech Seed and Toxic Spikes are great options as Roserade can outspeed quite a bit and the AI isn't smart enough to switch (yet). This thing can also hit like a truck with Petal Dance. The biggest downside is it's frail defense. As long as it is used wisely, it can be a great asset to almost any team. Honchkrow Tier: C Availability: Varies Stats: Average Movepool: Good If this Pokemon had better speed, it'd easily be an A rank. Like Crobat, it gains the ability to use Haze. With Super Luck and a Scope Lens, this bird will put a dent into some really bulky Pokemon. It'll probably take a hit or two before going down because it doesn't have the defenses to stand that long. Toxicroak Tier: B Availability: Somewhat Late Stats: Good Movepool: Great Toxicroak is a really special case. While it doesn't learn any great STAB moves early, it has a couple nasty little tricks up it's sleeve. Swagger, Mud Bomb, Revenge, and Sucker Punch are some of it's moves it'll learn early. It starts out rather poor, but it gains potential as the game goes on. Escalvier Tier: B Availability: Late Stats: Good Movepool: Good While it's no Scissor, Escalvier has some great uses. It can be used as a staller in order to heal everyone up or go on the offensive and really hurt the opponent. Another upside is that this Pokemon grows very fast meaning it's not going to lag behind despite it's late availability. He also has an advantage against all four leaders that follow him. It's a pretty good pokemon, but there are much better options. Cherrim Tier: C Availability: Very Early Stats: Varies Movepool: Poor On paper, this pokemon is terrible. In Reborn, it's not too bad. The biggest hindrance is that Sunny Day needs to be up which will really hurt any water types and wastes a turn in battle. Double Battles is where it really shines. Flower Gift raises the attack and special defense by 50% when it sunny of both it and it's partner. This is a very difficult pokemon to use, but it's very strong when used correctly. Arbok Tier: D Availability: Very Eary Stats: Poor Movepool: Good If you're going to use Arbok, it's not going to be for Attacking. With moves like Sreech, Glarce, Acid Spray, and a Poison move along with intimidate, it's good for a setup. Not the best Pokemon out there, but it has it's uses. Alakazam Tier: A Availability: Late Stats: Excelent Movepool: Great Alakazam used to be a great pain to get as you had to trade a Bibarel for an Abra which was worth it. Based off that experience, Alakazam is a Pokemon that'll be useful throughout the whole game. It's both fast and strong. It'll be a major pain to raise, but the reward is worth the efforts. Emolga Tier: D Availability: Somewhat early Stats: Poor Movepool: Great Emolga as a whole is terrible, but has a few little gimmicks that make him a little useful like acrobatics and light screen. His typing isn't too bad either, but it's his stats that hinder him to be too weak. He's very useful early, but he'll drag behind later.
  12. Make sure the track isn't connected to the railing with rocks on it. That threw me off on my second playthrough.
