REEEEAAALLY looking forward to my first ever VGC. I'm 26 so I figured I'd better go to one before I get too old :). See everyone Saturday!!!!!!

Thanks guys...re-breeding now. :) I've had the moveset: Leech Seed Encore Protect Tailwind I've been practicing deferent strategies on the Battle Subway (I know...bad me). Would y'all recommend replacing protect with taunt? What I've usually done is let the opponent attempt to set up and...

Would y'all recommend a Timid/Jolly Whimsicott for VGC b/c of the 2 genies? I have a bold but I'm thinking of re-breeding.

Master's Division 26 yrs old and this will be my first one. See y'all there.

Finally! Now I can get some of the "Reduces X moves by 50 percent" berries for VGCs.

When Flame Burst is used one one of your pokemon, and it also hits on with Flash Fire, Flash Fire isn't activated. I.E. I have Chandelure and Cottonee out. Cottonee is hit with Flame Burst. Chandelure is also hit and damaged. Sucks...

I re-arranged some items and switched Mienshao for Conkledurr due to him having a higher attack and a pretty good priority move. I also changed Hydreigon's nature and ev spread to outspeed Haxorous. Still can't decide on Choice Specs or Life Orb for him though...

Voted to ban all permanent weather.

Thanks for the suggestions. I play around with the moves/items and see what happens. Life Orb on Carracosta doesn't seem like a good idea at all. If I Shell Break and get hit with a super effective move and hang on with Sturdy...one move with Life Orb would kill me. I think you're wrong on...

^^^^^^This^^^^^^ Got my Hydration Vappy as well.

LOL wow...I meant Protect. Don't know what I was thinking when I typed this up. I haven't run into the Protect/HJK scenario yet...thanks for warning me!!!!! Anger Powder and Spore on Amoonguss helps out the entire team...not just Carracosta. If one of my starters faints, I usually bring in...

This will be my first time attending the VGC and I'm really excited. Please offer any criticisms on my team! Hydreigon (NN: Tryclyde)@ Life Orb Timid 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Ability: Levitate Dragon Pulse Dark Pulse Flamethrower Surf Conkledurr (NN: Bane)@ Flame Orb Adament 120 HP / 252...

Question: If your OPPONENT has Trick Room set up and YOU used Aqua Jet/Mach Punch/etc will you still move first?

Which is what I just said. The point is that someone earlier said they don't want to ban Pokemon + Ability but we have done that in SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES with the SS + Drizzle ban.

Which in turn bans Swift Swim+Kingdra (Pokemon + Ability) in that special circumstance.

Seems like this will become the common theme of 5th Gen.....

Wouldn't it just be easier to put Speed Boost Blaziken in Ubers(which I'm assuming it will be put there) and leave Blaze Blaziken in UU?

Correct...which is essentially banning a Pokemon+Ability in certain circumstances seeing as Kingdra+Sniper+Drizzle is still allowed.

But y'all already have banned Pokemon+Ability in certain circumstances with Swift Swimmers + Drizzle. For example you can have Kingdra + Sniper + Drizzle but not Kingrda + Swift Swim + Drizzle. Banning Blaze Blaziken is...I don't even know the word for how utterly dumb it is.
