[Bleeether]

Good luck Bleeether, hopefully you'll enjoy your new Politoed

Thank you its one more piece to the puzzle.

 

[PreyingShark]

Hail will also be popular when I become VGC '15 champion. I'll be sure to dedicate the win to you guys.

Abomasnow was the most common Top Cut mon in last year's NeoGAF tourney. Still didn't even make finals. Good luck!

What would happen if Hail gave Ice types a +1 defense boost like Sandstorm gives Rock types a +1 special defense boost?

Mega Abomasnow would definitely be way better, but there are other Pokemon like Walrein or Articuno that would enjoy the extra bulk.

All hail would break loose

focus blast and flamethrower/fireblast would still run through them like a hot knife through butter.

Also, Mamoswine becomes death, destroyer of worlds.

 

[TriangleMasher]

is there a lot of water in this game

Assault Vest Lapras would be unkillable.

Ain't the tropics without water.

Assault Vest Lapras would be unkillable.

Okay, I've decided I want this. GF please.

 

[Kinokou]

- Vs. Seeker
- Gym Leader Rematches
- Pokemon following you
- Horde battles

And give it a resistance or two towards grass and bug or poison. That seems like logical resistances.

The last thing those three types need is another type that resists them.

Flying or Water would be my picks if Ice was to gain a resistance. Both are good offensive types. Flying already is weak to Ice, while Ice and Water should logically resist each other since they're both different forms of Water.

honestly ice just straight up should resist Flying, Water, and Grass. Absolutely no reason why it doesn't.

I once used a carrot to break ice into chunks. It just doesn't work when you think about it

 

[Kid Ska]

Yo, I got AS yesterday and I'm just starting off. Would anyone want to throw a low level Seedot my way? I'm talking level 5ish.

 

[dakkumauji]

You can technically use ice to break ice. So ice should be weak against itself!

Yeah well water is used to cut fucking everything so what then!?

 

[Azuran]

Depends. Are we talking about rivers shaping landscapes over million of years or a high pressure water stream being able to bend something strong like steel?

 

[Maintenance]

Ice (absolute zero) and fire (Planck temperature) should be the strongest of them all.

 

[jon bones]

i know this is a long shot, but would anyone happen to have an OR/AS demo code i could use? i'm just getting back into the series since RB and i'd love to try it out before i get my full copy next week.

thanks!

 

[Spinosaurus]

I'm honestly baffled Water resists Ice. I used to think it was the other way around all the time.

I mean when you think about it Ice should be STRONG against water.

Sure. Lemme catch one.

I think I still have an extra one that never got used. Don't remember even giving it away either so I still still works.

Thank you! My FC is in my profile.

awesome! would you mind PM'ing it to me? i'd really appreciate it, thanks

 

[SoulUnison]

The Ice and Water relationship always throws me off.
Water should be weak to ice, and Ice should resist Water, or at least stay neutral.

It'll probably never happen, though, since they specifically introduced a move like Freeze Dry.

 

[Spinosaurus]

Sorry for the late reply. FC is 3093-7162-3807

I got a lv.2 female. I'll catch a higher levelled one if you want.

 

[Bleeether]

I just tested out my Politoed perish song team.. Sooooo FUN omg haha.

I'm not super concerned with the level, but I'd appreciate it if you could find me a male.

 

[Maintenance]

I'm almost leaving this Cresselia, I'm tired of SRing. I could be completing my Dex, fighting on the Maison, but I'm here doing this shitty grind. The problem with her is that the island is random, so I can't just get back whenever I want, like I do with Reshiram and Ho-oh, for an example.

 

[Spinosaurus]

Alright. What's your trainer name? I'll send a trade request when I catch one.

Kyle. Thanks again, this is a huge help

No problem! Used a Shiftry myself, it's really good.

 

[Charlie0108]

Just test out my potential team on Showdown and doing surprisingly well! Won 5 battles in a row, might still need a few tweaks though.

Seriously dude, finish your National Dex. It'll be much quicker in the long run.

 

[one_kill]

Finally transferred items from XY today. Got my Lucky Eggs, Destiny Knots, Battle Maison items, etc. I hate that you can't trade Pokemon with HM moves, but w/e it's done. I'm now ready to fight online!

I'm going to finish post game and get mega stones. Then I might get back to SRing for a shiny Zekrom.

 

[NormalFish]

My VGC15 is shaping up well, but it's really different from my last team, and I think it needs some changes. Suggested counters/checks for mega swampert? My mega sceptile is OHKOd by Ice Punch, so unless I land my leaf storm turn 1, I lose. Nothing else seems to present a consistent problem.

Btw, I think cresselia is pretty iffy right now. Aegislash is WAAAYYY too common.

Grass moves get pretty good distribution, throw Grass Knot, Giga Drain or Energy Ball on a water type. Something like Ludicolo, Azumaril or Tentacruel could probably tank a hit and get the OHKO with Grass Knot or Energy Ball.

Tyranitar gets rid of its speed advantage, though you definitely don't want it taking a hit.

I've thought about this, but I'm worried about having more issues with talonflame/zapdos/other major threats that deal with grass or water pokemon.

This is my current plan. Going to use a special attack set with fireblast for some needed extra coverage, too.

 

[Muku]

WTS soul for shiny Latias.

Hope everyone else's shiny hunts are going better. I am a bit worried when I get around to Cresselia after reading some stuff.

Ouch man, sorry to hear that. I hope you get it soon. I've almost forgotten that I haven't yet even completed the game I've been at mine so long, haha.

I don't know if you guys noticed, the American pokemon center has the Red nendoroid for sale.

The O-powers bit in ORAS is funny

RNG hates me atm. Just can't get a 6IV offspring with two 6IV parents. 3 hours now.

 

[WrenchNinja]

Does anyone have the following Pokemon that they're willing to trade?

Treecko with the hidden ability Unburden
Mudkip with the hidden ability Damp
Fennekin with the hidden ability Magician
Carvanha with the hidden ability Speed Boost

Why do you need 6IVs?
