I am sure that we are all aware of the purpose of Electivire. Electivire is a Pokemon who is supposed to come in on an Electric type move, gain a +1 speed boost and then rip the enemy team to pieces using a plethora of moves that strike the opponents for super effective damage. At +1 speed in...

Hello there, everyone! Today I (Light, if you don't know me) am here to discuss a strategy that is so incredibly rare that many people have probably gone their entire Pokemon careers without even so much as hearing of it, much less seeing someone use it. The technique that I am here to discuss...

Gentlemen! I've been perusing the various threads and whatnot here after a somewhat mild siesta and the issue I observe the most is the lack of a sturdy, proper stance on counters and clauses. Being the helpful human that I am, I am opting to attempt to assist you men (and women) in discerning...

First off, I'd like to extend a friendly hello to the people here at Stark Mountain. I don’t know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve. Most of you may know me, generally as “Light”, as a rather fond proponent of innovation and...

These several weeks, I've been in a Poke-slump. I didn't post anything especially revolutionary in Stark after the creation of Pepper. Then, it came to me: What if you totally tweaked Medicham to bring one of its several counters, and then instantly set up another Pokemon with substitute? Done...

I haven't really made anything in the last month, due to a vacation and such. So now that Light Inc is back, we present to you the invention that will make your matches have 100% more facepalms, Poker Face. [SET] name: Poker Face move 1: Swagger move 2: Thunder Wave / Zap Cannon move 3: Iron...

Yet another set from Light Incorporated ©! This is a Politoed that I developed to gain the maximum benefit from entry hazards. Since it is a partner to Pepper, I named it Slippy. Star Fox, of course. http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/politoed [SET] Name: Slippy Move 1: Perish Song Move 2...

Basically, this is a rather effective Aero set that I've had some success with, but I don't feel like making giant topic in Stark about it. So I guess I'll just post it here! This IS my first peer edit, but don't let that stop you from pointing out all the flaws in it...

I’ve always liked the concept of Arcanine, and I’ve always tried to incorporate it into my team. Just recently, however, have I realized the flaw in trying to use those attacking stats of his to sweep. Arcanine is too weak and too slow for a full-fledged sweep, as well as having too many easy...

I've noticed than FEO topic exists, but am appalled that no discussion or thread to help people in the general games exists. Now, I'm quite aware that many people love this series, so I thought it would be best if this topic was made! It's not super competitive as others are, but they do have...

One of the clauses that I see some debate over is the OHKO clause, namely the clause that blocks moves that kill in one hit, regardless of defense or HP and such. These are disliked by the general higher level members for the very reason that while they have a poor hit rate, they can instantly...

Now, this is a team I truly had fun making. It basically focuses on picking up a few cheerfully colored pokemon (pink, blue, yellow, you know the drill) and putting them into some form of reasonable team. I'll let you yourself decide how good it is. Aura (Zapdos) @ Leftovers Ability: Pressure...

Sandslash is a poke oft overlooked when looking for a Rapid Spinning pokemon. After all, is it not just Donphan with slightly worse Hit Points, Attack and Defense? And indeed, simply looking at the stats the logical conclusion is to go with our rolling tapir Donphan, since Sandslash only has an...

Now this is a fun little team I made for my Byakuya account on Shoddy (Where every account has its own theme!) and before I know it I get to top 100, and it's something like #15 now, just as a result of testing out some strategies. Oh, and you'll see that this team is attempting three things...

Nidoking, a pokemon which after the glory it had in G/S/C with OU tier status, finds itself relegated to UU. It dislikes this tier, finding the inhabitants too weak for its liking. It has once again set its eyes on competing in OU, this time not as a sweeper, however. DP's Nidoking is a...
