    Banned for letting it get stolen!
  2. Charlotte actually makes terrible decisions. I don't need to repeat what the DerogatoryTrainer states about her; those are all valid points.
  3. Welcome to Reborn, I'm sure you'll enjoy your stay here!
  4. In every garden are a few stunted trees that prefer to rot in their own jadedness rather than grow, no matter how much of your time or resources you afford them, and they reward your efforts only with thorns and rotten fruit. The question remains: Do I pity them and continue to toil in their patch, or do I just scramble out of that miserable grove and enjoy the conpany of sunnier affairs? I'm not beholden to them, after all...

      Oh, no danger of that, at the very least. I never let my morality become tainted by others'. But yes, the point stands, of course. It is better for me to disassociate myself from things which are ungrateand poisonous.

      Chop em down and give something else the chance to grow there.

      It's the job of the ax-wielders to cut down the rotten trees, a garden cannot tend to itself without becoming overgrown.

  5. -800/10 not enough Magnezones. Seriously, get a Magnezone before ep16 comes out; the thing is worth all 180 kg of its weight in gold, helps in every single gym battle, even with type disadvantageous ones with sturdy + TWave, and learns all its best mices naturally. You won't find a better electric type, one of the best steels types with a humorous load of resistances, and it's one of the best special attackers in general. And it's axed to a later part in ep16 so go geddit. As for Charlotte, Tyrantrum helps a ton. Learns friggin Head Smash and EQ naturally, you can breed DD onto it via Horsea, and it straight up murderizes Charlotte on its own. Golem or Gigalith also help in a similar but less effective vein. You can give Flash Fire to Arcanine, that helps too.
  6. OHO, So Halloween doesn't like pointy stuff. Time to include sharp things in all my future works! kappa As for the idea of him trapping and removing PDon, bear in mind that a trapper is not necessarily a counter. This thing is never gonna switch in on a Pdon's move, unless you have balls of steel and predict the stone edge or TWave. No, it is meant to be brought in, like Mega Gengar is, on a sack or via U-Turn, and then proceed to trap the Groudon. And 160 Def is a pain, yes, so it'll only do about 60-70% max with an Adamant EQ when in boosted. That's the point (hehe). It's not so easy to use to the point where it's dumb and unfun; among the many things it CAN do is trap PDon and eliminate it, after it has been weakened and in due course of the game. The lava lizard is too damn fat to be OHKOed by a physical attack without boosts, and without an item. Anyways, as for the lack of blood red, that must be my red-green colourblindness in play. Sorry :/ As for the face and skin, I might concede that the face is somewhat secondary in light of all the other stuff going on, but I don't see how it could be otherwise with this concept. You can imagine the skin to be whatever you like (I like the idea of fur, because moles do have short fur.) The top stripes are a minor thing, shush, don't talk about 'em. Thanks very much for the steel compliment though. Such unconditional praise from you is praise indeed. But I take it with self-satisfied smugness, because OFC I'M THE STEEL LORD, koie shak?
  7. In all honesty, I'd let the aliens attack, really. I'd probably join 'em , too, because we all know their UFO is gonna be a giant Magnezone, and the aliens themselves are an advanced race of deoxysians. Why do people ask silly hypothetical questions that have no bearing on any real aspect?
  8. ALL RIGHT, enter Mega Excadrill! So, straight up, this thing is NOT for OU, it's for Ubers. Yea. Because, you see, it gets Arena Trap! Makes sense, right? Why should a dumb thing like duggy get it while a real mole doesn't? So MegaDrill here can do some serious trapping. And boy, won't it put those massive drills to use! This thing is bulkier, naturally faster to compensate for the loss of Sand Rush, and has HUGE attack, because it is built for one significant purpose: trapping and eliminating Ubers Titans, in particular that plague of all overcentralising plagues, Primal Groudon! Here be the stats: Base form: 110/135/60/50/65/88 =508 MEGA form: 110/165/90/50/85/108 =608 Absolutely terrifying, isn't it? It gets a noticeable increase in bulk (110/90/85 is Garchomp-level fatness) and it can use it to take a few resisted knocks like Ekiller's Extreme Speed, a stray Moonblast or so, and of course, Rock moves are eaten well. This is complemented by a good rise in speed from a subpar 88 (lower than the base 90 mark in Ubers, thus forcing it to rely on sand) to a great 108, which outspeeds a large chunk of the fat metagame. The phenomenal rise in attack, along with its potential access to Swords Dance, makes it terrifying in battle. The idea behind it is to be versatile. It can very well make use of Tyranitar to do its sand clean-up job pre-mega, and Mega evolve to trap and kill off the fatter, slower Titans to have the way for, oh, I don't know, an Ekiller or a Mewtwo or something to sweep. It still keeps its Sand Rush speed on the turn it Mega Evolves, so it can nicely checkmate something faster on that turn if sand is up, like a Mega Gengar or a troublesome Mewtwo, and kill it off. The added bulk and trapping power also makes it viable to run moves like Rapid Spin and even Stealth Rock or Toxic. However, it's not as broken as mega Gengar, because it is not mad fast, and it can't trap things that are off the ground. It also has rather okay bulk by Ubers standards, really, and no recovery either, so it's not going to take hits that well. And because it can't hold an item, its power is not very different from regular LO Drill's. Setting up an SD is also easier said that done. As for the drawing itself, I took an Excadrill and combined it with an earth-moving equipment, really. the body is much bulkier, with the head-part becoming a massive drill that bites through the earth. Its arms become hugely muscled, like Mega Heracross's, and its claws transform into divisible, semi-retractable drill parts, which can fuse together and rotate like its head-drill, and can also operate independently to act like clawed fingers to slash and hold things, as illustrated. I took a few liberties, of course, like the steel rat-like tail and the red patterns on its body transforming into stripes of some kind that glow when MegaDrill is agitated, and I also added in a fair bit of blood-red jewels encrusted into the seams of its drills. The elbows are additionally strengthened by a metal piledriver, rather like on jackhammers, so they can thrust at the ground (or at an enemy!) with shattering force. Anyway, there it is. Quite an unfriendly thing to face, really. Watch your step; it could be under you, for all you know!
  9. I seem to remember this kind of thread somewhere before? Or am I mistaken? Anyways, Mega Bowties for me and my Pokémon, quite obviously. *Twirls moustache*
  10. I have deep disdain for all the yellow vermin. Now, if you had included Azumarill...
  11. It shouldn't be impossible to turn it off. It's horrible if we have to endure annoying 'guide' characters.
  12. I am irked when people are not punctual. That applies to any person, even, as is the case now, to my lecturer. What respect can I have for his class schedule if he does not respect Dialga? Upshot, I'm at a loose end for ten precious minutes, which I have deigned to ordain to you lot. Be grateful! *Dictator VIRI commands Micky to appear*
  13. Enough claptrap now; I'm off to swim and then go to work. See you in ten hours. Micky?
  14. Here's a fun little thing which I and Etesian know as 'Murderbug': {"species":"Scolipede","gender":"M","item":"Life Orb","ability":"Speed Boost","evs":{"hp":0,"atk":252,"def":4,"spa":0,"spd":0,"spe":252},"nature":"Adamant","moves":[["Megahorn"],["Rock Slide"],["Earthquake"],["Protect"]]},"ivs":{"hp":29}} {"species":"Scolipede","gender":"M","item":"Leftovers","ability":"Speed Boost","evs":{"hp":0,"atk":252,"def":4,"spa":0,"spd":0,"spe":252},"nature":"Jolly","moves":[["Megahorn"],["Rock Slide"],["Earthquake"],["Swords Dance"]]}, Makes for a very nice late game cleaner as well as a good set up Sweeper in the latter case. These two are also a tad different from the pastebin set.
  15. Yes. The more dogs the better. Dogs should be everywhere and they should be preventing all of us from working or worrying about anything because we're too busy hugging them and playing with them. Cats are not as good as dogs. There, I said it. Challenge me. What on earth makes you think a cat can be a better companion in any significant way to a man than a dog?
  16. Good morning. There was quite a lot of gale and lighting in a surprise thunderstorm last night. Tempest?
  17. Y'all crazy! Why is there no steel type beginning with C? Gen7 ought to fix that. Next best thing: Crawdaunt.
  18. Dialga Making a resolution to only name steel types or Analytic mons as far as possible.
  19. M...? Could it be...? M A G N E Z O N E *Spazzes out*
