  1. I'm actually gonna defend Heroic's statement here. There a more things now that put a stop to Rotom-W. Kyurem-B puts a stop to a lot of moves that Rotom can do and can threaten to setup a Sub or hit with Earth Power with Teravolt. Excadrill also threatens Rotom with an OHKO with Mold Breaker and EQ. Both must be wary of Will-O-Wisp however. (Assault Vest Exca bypasses any chance of being OHKO'd by Hydro Pump) You can't really stop Rotom from using it's moves, you will just have to learn how to play around it which itself isn't very hard as Rotom's move set is very predictable coming from 3 Metas of using it's trademark sets.

      No, I didn't make this status at all for him. Where'd you get that idea.

  4. These statements are incorrect. Implying that we should "get better" at team-building is a terrible excuse to imply that Genesect is a balancing factor. A balance factor is what it is, balanced. Forcing people to switch into using Heatran, Rotom-H, or using Genesect itself is not balancing the meta, it's over centralizing it. Speaking of using Genesect, having to using Genesect to counter it itself is absolutely crap. The ideology of "If it's overpowered, then you yourself have to use it" is not a good excuse, in fact it's doing the opposite effect on most people. Also, define beat because there is not many pokemon that can "beat" Genesect. You can revenge kill it sure but, there is an extremely small handful of pokemon that can "beat" Genesect. Genesect's game is highly dependent on the player and 9/10, Genesect excels at whatever task it's given. How are we supposed to know that Genesect was going to kill my Garchomp so his Garchomp or Charizard-X can setup and sweep? Also, unpredictability is the exact reason why Genesect is getting banned in the first place. There are many variables like you said that Genesect has the ability to use. We have to think hard on what set of Genesect you could be running. What if you are running Iron Head instead of Flamethrower, Ice Beam instead of Bug Buzz, Explosion instead of U-Turn? Unpredictability can differ between pokemon to pokemon. Gengar is a good exmaple as Gengar can run multiple sets effectively. The difference between that and Genesect is that it can't be thrown on most teams to fit most purposes, has more glaring weaknesses compared Genesect, and has much more Checks and Counters to it. If Gengar was a problem, we would have thrown it in the Tier Discussion list. That statement in itself is false. Genesect doesn't promote originality, it only promotes originality in itself. What has Genesect done to the meta that forces people to run other set? Genesect has forced Stall to disappear, promoted more Hyper Offensive play, and killed off potential for other Leads like Greninja, Terrakion, or Anti-Meta Aegislash. Those do exist as decent Checks and Counters towards Genesect but the problem is, when is that ever going to happen? If you are a smart Genesect user, you wouldn't let your Genesect die so early and switch it out towards something that automatically threatens said Checks. Like you said, if you are smart team-builder this thing wouldn't happen to Genesect and you would still win regardless. I'm not here trying to be the bad guy. i'm just pointing out facts.

  12. Welcome into Reborn. Before you mossy on over i'm going to need to warn you on a few things. Warnings: Randomness. Brain damage. Feels. Craziness. Loss of Sanity. Loss of Brain Cells. Death of Brain Cells. Over-toned laughing box. Hug attacks. Glomps. Getting called "Ross" and "Norule." That last one is a personal vendetta. >:I You know who you are. Welcome to Reborn!
  13. Well, guess this is just one of those nights I guess. Oh and spoilers. The first video may not be suitable to those with a weak heart to really degrading sorts of humor that everyone here finds hilarious. You have been warned. Messaged payed for by Abraham Lincoln. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5G_3W_Qsn8
  14. Get outta here. *Whittles personwithbanana down with the Tommy Gun* This hill is mine now. Ya dig?

  16. Fixed and edited. I saw the comment that Jory made on Heroic's RMT and assumed that Aerial Ace was in his movepool. Classic case of not reading well. :P
  17. Magikarp killer. The creme de la creme.
  18. This is a questioned based off of what's already known. Since we can have Mewtwo as one of our pokemon in X-League, would using the Mega Stone with it also cancel out both a legendary pokemon we can use and a mega evo we could use?

  20. Defog Attacker / The Hand of Zeus Thundurus (M) @ Expert Belt Trait: Defiant EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe -Wild Charge -Fly -Knock Off -Superpower Full credit towards So Heroic for popularizing this set. Thundurus has a vast enough movepool to forgoe a traditional Special Attacker set and can work as a Physical attacker. This set is made to take advantage of Defog users and dish out massive damage. Generally, nearly every Defog user is either to weak or frail to Thundurus's move set, barring the rare Defog Gliscor. Wild Charge is a spammable STAB that tears through Pokemon that otherwise would live a regular LO Thunderbolt at +0. Fly is used for coverage against common switch ins into Thundurus such as M-Venusaur, M-Heracross, Conkeldurr, and M-Medicham. Be wary of using this move as you will hit the next turn. Knock off dishes severe damage against Ghost types and messes around with Aegislash due to Defiant. Superpower is used to muscle through common Rock-Type switch ins like Assault Vest Tyranitar and the pink blobs, Chansey and Blissey. This set borrows it's power from Defog but can still be just as effective on a surprise switch in again a threat that would normally crush Thundurus. It also plays a role to expand the longevity of Entry Hazards.
