How do you feel about Flareon having no good moves whatsoever? What's your favorite Pokémon to use competitively? What's your favorite vidya gaim? What do you look for in a good friend/boyfriend? Got any "pet peeves"? If so, what are they? What's your favorite way to pass time? How late do you sleep in till? Are my questions beginning to annoy you? I'd come up with more, but I don't want to bother you even more than I've done already. :3

[b]SAND STREAM, DRIZZLE, DROUGHT, AND EVEN SNOW WARNING ARE NOW NONEXISTENT ABILITIES ON THEIR RESPECTIVE POKéMON[/b] I couldn't resist.

Wow, this probably beats all of my irl birthday celebrations. Thanks for this, everyone. I know I'm not around much anymore, but...it really does mean a lot. And Ame is the best artist of all time. Agreed? Agreed.

True. You did well, Geo, for not getting any info prior to writing up your highlights.

Belly Drumanitan Darmanitan @ Salac Berry Trait: Sheer Force EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Speed Jolly Nature - Substitute - Belly Drum - Fire Punch - Rock Slide/Earthquake If executed correctly, this Pokémon could be the strongest of all Pokes in OU. It has enough strength to tear holes in the fabric of the space-time continuum. That's how insanely powerful this is. The goal is to set up a sub on someone who thinks that you're choiced against something that doesn't want to be against it, specifically Ferrothorn, and then Belly Drum. Then, use your Attack stat that hits [i]over 1500[/i] to destroy, quite literally, everything. 4 HP EVs lets you activate your Salac Berry when you Belly Drum behind a Sub. Fire Punch is obvious and grabs a Sheer Force boost, making it even more powerful. Flare Blitz is out of the question, as the recoil will instantly kill you and the power isn't even needed. Rock Slide is usually recommended over Earthquake, as Earthquake can leave you open against a number of things, such as Multiscale Dragonite. However, Earthquake is slightly more accurate than Rock Slide, so it's always an option. Basically, if your Sub is still up after you've Belly Drummed, you've pretty much won, unless the opposing team has two priority users/scarfed Pokémon that have over 317 Speed. The most obvious support that this set needs is Spinning, as Stealth Rock/Spikes ruins the entire set. Starmie, Tentacruel, Forretress, and Donphan are 4 names that come to mind, but there are more available. Other than that...after this set sets up, there's next to nothing that walls it, except maybe Rhyperior if you're running Rock Slide. Even that's a stretch. Extremely defensive Garchomp [i]might[/i] be able to take a Fire Punch, but that's unlikely as well. As long as you have a spinner, your team shouldn't need much more support.

I like GG/RR/MM more...they give us solid numbers on how we did and actually give us featured battles instead of...that. ._. Oh, and...

Ame...how DARE you not have picked my picture yet to be contest'd? THIS ENRAGES ME!!!!111eleven I'll think of a caption later; placeholder for now.

What's up, Rebornites and Non-Rebornites alike? Yeah, so, this is kinda a parallel to the pic thread; the purpose of THIS thread is so that we all know what each other's voice sounds like! Just go to vocaroo.com, hit record and record yourself, and get the link (hit "Post on the internet" at the bottom of the page after you've hit Stop Recording to get it) and post. Alternatively, you can just post a clip of your voice from somewhere else if you don't have a mic to record from. I'll start with this: http://vocaroo.com/?media=v82hvhDuBKVki9LUj

I'll try not to think about that too hard.

Look out, Lanturn; a [i]new[/i] lantern's in town!

You Got Blood on My Scarf/Spectacles Zoroark @ Choice Scarf/Choice Specs Trait: Illusion EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpAtk / 252 Speed Modest/Timid Nature - Night Daze/Dark Pulse - Flamethrower - Hidden Power [Ice] - Extrasensory/Focus Blast/U-Turn A decent choiced Pokémon, especially because of the surprise that Illusion can bring. Night Daze and Dark Pulse are stab; the former being stronger and the latter being more accurate. Flamethrower annihilates Steels, specifically Ferrothorn, Scizor, and Forretress. Hidden Power [Ice] hits Dragons, but any type can be run over Ice to fit your personal desires. Focus Blast destroys Tyranitar, but Extrasensory hits Fighting types. U-Turn can also be run to scout. If this is the case, run Rash/Naive over Modest/Timid, respectively so you have a bit more power behind your U-Turns. The spare 4 EVs can also be shifted to Attack, or even a few more from your Speed/Special Attack if you so choose. The item choice is a choice between Speed or Special Attack. It also is important that you take care in disguising Zoroark as something plausible. Make sure your disguise takes neutral damage from Stealth Rock and is not immune to Spikes. Also, it is advised if your Zoroark is shiny, your disguise should be as well and vice-versa. In doing this, your opponent is more likely to believe that Zoroark is the Pokémon that it is disguised as, making the surprise hurt that much more.

SPY SAPPIN' MAH SWORDS DANCE Zoroark @ Life Orb/Focus Sash Trait: Illusion EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Speed Adamant/Jolly Nature - Swords Dance - Night Slash/Sucker Punch - Return - Low Sweep/Substitute/U-Turn A surprising set on a surprising Pokémon. Nearly always best left for late game, also. Zoroark has a decent 105 Attack that is good enough to warrant a Swords Dance set. Sadly, his physical coverage is too awful for it to shine over his almost completely superior Nasty Plot set. It gets a surprise in, but little more. Anyway, Night Slash is more reliable but Sucker Punch can take out things that are faster than you provided you can predict a little. Return hits everything but Rocks and Steels (make sure you set your happiness to 255!), and Low Sweep covers the Rocks and Steels up (even if it is incredibly weak). Substitute and U-Turn can be run over Low Sweep for scouting purposes.

BANNED BECAUSE 'THE TRUTH' COULD BE A PARALLEL TO A CERTAIN PART OF THE BODY

He told us he was asian and 12. It's not that hard to get an idea of what he looks like.

Oh look, I bought just about everything that's in the store. :3

Scolispike Scolipede @ Focus Sash/Leftovers Trait: Poison Point/Swarm EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Speed Jolly Nature - Spikes/Toxic Spikes/Substitute - Spikes/Toxic Spikes/Substitute - Megahorn - Earthquake/Rock Slide A decent Spiker, thanks to its good Speed. The choice of Spikes, Toxic Spikes, or both all depends on what your team prefers. Substitute can buy you a turn against other leads trying to status you and such, specifically against things like Ferrothorn. Megahorn is to put holes in stuff, but Bug STAB is kind of underwhelming thanks to the large amount of Bug resistances. Earthquake hits Steels, and Rock Slide hits flying things. A bulkier spread with more HP and less Attack can be run to let Scolipede have a better chance at getting up more layers of Spikes. If this is the case, run Leftovers over a Focus Sash. The choice of ability really doesn't matter, but Swarm can score you an extra-powerful Megahorn after your Sash has been activated.

Ugh, the choice between Inuki's and Ikaru's strikeout response is painful; I loved both. BUT WAIT! Ikaru posted two captions, and it says specifically in Ame's [s]much, MUCH too wordy[/s] OP that you can only enter one, so his strikeout response is completely irrelevant! So, Inuki wins. Yay.

Double Spore Amoonguss @ Leftovers Trait: Effect Spore/Regenerator EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpDef Bold Nature - Spore - Stun Spore - Giga Drain - Clear Smog One of the best Pokémon to spread status around. Spore is obvious, a 100% sleep accurate move is fucking boss. Stun Spore is after you've put something to sleep and want to be able to cripple other stuff. Giga Drain is STAB that also heals your HP, which definitely helps you stay alive longer. Clear Smog is a weird move that is actually incredibly effective, as it resets all stat changes which makes it so that nothing (bar steels) can set up on you. The EVs can be shifted to be more Specially Defensive or a more even spread if you so please.

Choice Mie and I'll Be a Star! Starmie @ Choice Scarf/Choice Specs Trait: Natural Cure EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpAtk / 252 Speed Timid/Modest Nature - Hydro Pump/Scald - Ice Beam - Thunderbolt - Trick/Psychic/Rapid Spin Probably the best Starmie to use this gen. And yes, I [i]did[/i] just make the most awful pun of all time. Starmie is a great choice to be...Choiced...because it has a great base 115 Speed, a good Special Attack, and Natural Cure so it doesn't fear Toxic Spikes or any status for that matter. Anyway, Hydro Pump is powerful STAB, while Scald is more reliable and offers a 30% Burn chance. Ice Beam wrecks every Dragon in existence (bar Reshiram ¬_¬) and is a great move in general. Thunderbolt is there for all of the Water types that resist your combo, specifically Gyarados. Trick is the preferred last move, as it can cripple something you don't like, but Psychic is secondary STAB that wrecks Fighting types like ConkelDURRRR. Rapid Spin, although not the best choice, can also be run if you desperately need a spinner for your team.
