  1. Step1: Simple designs Step2: Some cooler looking pokemon Step3: Go to 1
  2. It is probable that our interactions with Bennet also affect Serra. I do not understand what happens with Radomus. We only have 1 chance to prove we like him, so that could mean we get to meet him later in the story. Actually that could apply to many of those characters, but some are less obvious than others.
  3. People are actually complaining about other regions like Johto not receiving Alola forms.
  4. For all I care it could be something as simple as it having 3 different evolutions based on which starter you chose.
  5. I didn't realize you were talking about the international baccalaureate course, and thought that was how you organized your math classes (eg IA, IIA, IB etc). Anyway, those usually do not go very much in depth, but I suppose you'll be solving problems to keep your mind fresh about that. It seems you will not be needing much extra academic knowledge if you can understand multivariable functions and 3D vectors, because for basic research you'll just need to check such figures to prove hypotheses and/or verify another person's research by doing so. A relatively easy idea would be to compare the properties of normal gas with plasma and BE clouds by doing randomized trials on the microscopic level, perhaps on bacteria if the uni has a microbiology department. You could project your findings on a computer and derive from the 'clouds' you've designed the particle movement, and thus the properties in various temperatures. For BE you'll need to go as close as to absolute zero, and for plasma to over 500K for it to be effective. You have the equipment there, so I suggest talking to the professor in charge of this whole operation and ask what their faculty is onto now, so you can get ideas.
  6. I'm thinking of that time ICSW mixed Ame and Obama, and I'm laughing alone like an idiot.

  7. Choose some pokemon you like. Then search for offensive and defensive synergy. Then try good stats that compliment the pokemon's traits and serve a specific role in your team. Then do the EVs that help do that job best. Don't just drop 6 individually strong monsters and call it a team. Make RMT and give us something to work with. So vague questions can only lead so similar answers.
  8. Of course it's going to be something already solved. He's a high school student. My initial impression is that your school has too much money to spend, yet we don't know what your abilities are (because the titles Math III or IB cannot be understood by non-Americans without help). Do you know the basics of integrals and derivatives? What about 3D vectors? If you know this stuff you may be able to teach yourself about higher math and their applications to physics like the Gross-Pitaevskii equation that corresponds to the BE particles. In general we'd need to know your approximate knowledge of math and physics, because if you are trying to make research about something out of your league, you'll face nothing but confusion and time loss. The PhD students will be a great asset, and since you have good equipment, you might learn to use it fast and efficiently. Be careful though, electron microscopes cost a lot, while chromatography is quite cheap given it's so basic. Try using photometry for your measurements of liquids for faster results imo.
  9. Can we just ban M-Sableye?

      We had tried. The smogon plebs decided to keep it. At least Gothitelle is gone, thank God.

  10. You guys cannot see this, but while the whole match was very fast paced, he took 1.5 minutes to play after that Sucker Punch fail. Sometimes we get overconfident, and that's when we mess up. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-435497220
  11. I jokingly asked if for the forensics exam we'd need to bring a body ourselves, and heard some really mean comments afterwards. Was it that bad of a joke?

      Dark humour is fine with me, so feel free to gibbet a shot. It's fun to put our heads together to execute skulduggery, anyhow.

      Hm, these people sound like... volunteers...

  12. A player needs to be adaptable. Most veterans of the game enjoy trying all playstyles with according levels of success. As for me, I enjoy using any archetype with the exception of hyper stall. The lack of prediction needed does not appeal to me, not to mention the shortage of available options. If there is a mega on the team, it will be either M-Sableye or M-Slowbro, with the rare exception of M-Lopunny which is used in semi-stall teams. Other than that, I believe balance and regular offense are my favorite playstyles perhaps due to their ability to adapt to most circumstances. HO is also cool, but the game may end so quickly I don't get the enjoyment of outpredicting or outsmarting my opponent.
  13. Is it possible to have a more 'user-friendly' view of this? I was trying to scan the raw in order to contribute more sets, but I can't seem to be able to read this. Could someone make a list of the pokemon already having sets?
  14. Given Magnezone is basicaly a portable sentient chunk of metal that produces electricity, the machine that turns it into a PULSE could be installed on the pokemon, regardless of whether the prototype of that machine remains in the house in Ametrine. @Ame what do you think about this^?
  15. @Caradius, the sets you posted are actually viable. Here we take the pokemon and act as if it could fill other roles, like bulky Dugtrio or physical Slowbro You can't top this one. Cro-Ninja
  16. Golem @ Leftovers Ability: Sturdy EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD Adamant Nature - Stealth Rock - Rock Blast - Earthquake - Sucker Punch
  17. Some pokemon have a reputation for being forgotten, but there are others that really are forgotten, like Stantler and Jumpluff

      Azery would throw a fucking fit with you. Tbf, I kind of would too, but I do think Jumpluff is a lil... Not memorable.

      Elgyem/Beheeyem. I forgot their names when I said earlier.

  18. He pretty much says it himself that a "travelling merchant sold those keys" and he "wonders who that might have been". Where they ended up is irrelevant. This is the basis for the OG Ringmaster theory, since the latter is supposed to have made a living out of mining shards and selling them to build a circus. The first hypothesis cannot hold true simply due to the timeline. Anna and Noel are 10, which means his wife's death should have happened 9-10 years ago. This means that during this time he put the children in the orphanage, bought a large castle (from whom? how much money do those shards make?) became world-renounced in chess, and a pokemon gym-leader, all while training his G.Gardevoir to be a journalist. Then it makes little sense from a psychological standpoint. If he had enough money to buy a castle and travel worldwide to play chess, why not invest same money for his children? Rumor has it of course that his connections with the Meteors preceed the children's birth, but had he been lowly miner, what good would he be to their cause except as a grunt? Also, how could he have learned about the true value of the shards/keys had he been uneducated and/or not important enough to discuss about this with Solaris or other high ranked officers of Meteor. Therefore, how does his position allow him to judge this situation accordingly? We could assume espionage and long-term promotions on his part but both cases still wouldn't explain his motives for joining and then quitting. All we can do is speculate at this point, but that doesn't mean that when something is a bit off, we should not point it out. Even if we have to set a certain timeframe as the basis of our story, the linear paths that explain the precedents need to be logically accurate. Otherwise we come across 'loopholes'.
  19. I'm just waiting for PokeBook or Chatter to post my pictures from the new pokemon snap. eg: Lopunny posting a pre-mega picture with hashtags #nofilter #nomegayanmega #peekachu
  20. When it comes to complex machinery, the player character is incapable of providing assistance, as per custom in every canon game. Thus a secondary character whose name reminds me of feline pets, had to disconnect the dots and temporarily remove a PULSE from the picture. A hot scene follows and a few episodes later we ought to be tasked with removing said PULSE on its entiriety from existence.
