Hey. So, you've got a shop or somesuch, I take it?

Sorry?

Macho Brace is never better under any circumstances excepting ones where you don't have access to the power items. EV reducing berries should serve nicely if you're not one hundred per cent certain that you EV trained your pokemon properly. If you are certain, perchance try a new calculator...

If you'd rested up on the Skarmory you would have avoided that situation and slapped hax right in the face. When Rhydon came out, Substitute to avoid QC hax and then Crunch away. Since you had +speed and +6 Evasion there's very little that can outspeed you and OHKO you, especially if you have...

Oho, so that was your team. I got a spiffy star for my trainer card using it, even though I didn't have access to a self-destructing Snorlax. Used an Ursaring instead which worked well enough. :P

Yes, he or she can, I have all five stars on Heart Gold and my singles Battle Tower record is only sitting at 97. Certainly, Purplenurple2 made a Metagross/Gengar/Azelf/Dusknoir team centered around exploding and got a pretty nifty streak of 202.

Please tell me you're joking, I just lost to a Jynx as well, 'cept his had choice specs instead. o_O Battle 397. As I can't find my camera, I won't ask to be put on the leaderboard, just mentioning the numbers as a testament to how well my team worked for me. It's the Ursaring/Togekiss combo I...

If sandstorm had been activated that would be the cause of your Shedinja's demise. I reached 378 just today and going strong, though I'm going to spend the rest of today and tomorrow breeding and EV training a new joint-lead, only just realized that it has a Defense IV of 7, not 31 as I...

Oh, duh. My bad. I was thinking of Blizzard. ...Which brings me back to my original point, Thunder will just get you Haxxed to death unless it's a Rain Dance team. (Not you, you, I mean CBShuckle.) 307 Seaking - Adamant - Quick Claw - Aqua Tail - Poison Jab - Aqua Ring - Facade No Horn Drill...

Ah, that would make sense. Is it a rain dance team, then? Your odds of hitting both opponents are only slightly better than 50% without it. (I like the yet you tacked on there. ;D)

Just out of curiosity, why run Thunder over Thunderbolt? That's just begging to be haxxed to death. Also, just going to say I'm very satisfied with my new doubles tower team, I'll post details about it in the coming days after I work out the last few kinks and get my streak a little bit further...

It wins because Blissey has crap for defenses. I've never seen a Beat Up Dugtrio used before, though.

Weavile outspeeds Regigigas even if Regigigas is not under the influence of slow start even if Weavile has a hindering nature and a speed IV of six or higher. In addition, not a single one of the four Regigigas' that appear in the battle tower have a quick claw or a choice scarf, so the only...

If you give a pokemon EV reducing berries or vitamins its stats will be changed instantly. If you give your pokemon EVs through pokemon battles you have to stick it in the PC or level it up before the EVs are applied. This does not work at level 100, though I do remember hearing of a glitch...

Freedom of move choice is only useful if you're planning on leaving your poke in until it dies. Sometimes you'll get burned by it, but an effective +1 boost to any of three stats far outweighs the drawbacks when you play it correctly.
