  1. Battle Mechanics Research

    Since Electric types are immune to paralysis now, is an electric type with Volt Absorb/Lighting Rod still able to activate the ability if hit by Thunder wave? (Related: Does Stunfisk keep Limber?) Does the Sky drop glitch still occur? Is Honedge and family affected by Magnet Pull? What are...
  2. Bug Reports v2.0 (READ OP BEFORE POSTING!!)

    2 Things in random matches: * Simple Bibarel against Mightyena, Intimidate activated and Bibarel was at -1, Bibarel used Curse and Raised Atk to +0, Def to +2 and Speed to -2 instead of Atk +1. * Meloetta used Relic Song against a Substitute and didn't transform, not sure if that's a bug but...
  3. Pokemon Showdown bug reports

    Got a Gardevoir in Random battle, and somehow it had Thick Fat as its ability. Then in Instant Replay the Scolipede I started with looked like it had Thick fat, and when it switched to Gardevoir, the Gardevoir had Sturdy. Scolipede was against a Tepig and after the switch the opponent switched...

  5. Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 Move Tutor Moves

    Serebii just released the list of Level-up moveset changes, mostly the changes are to make moves be learnt much earlier than before (The Eeveelutions learn their last move at level 45 as opposed to level 70), but there are of course completely new moves in some Pokemon learnsets, for example...

    ...Nope. Whoever said that? In fact it may had become better.

    Doesn't using Metronome to get Dark void work?

    If Kecleon is hit with Inferno what happens first, is it burned then turns into a Fire type or turns into a Fire type and avoids burn?
  9. Breloom

    Hmm, changing the subject, how much HP should Life orb Breloom run to minimize LO damage?
  10. Breloom

    Gliscor is definitely a huge counter to Breloom, but nothing some good team synergy won't handle. After all Breloom was ranked 11 in the last DW usage list right?

    No combination of moves is banned as far as I know. Only single moves like Double team, Minimize, etc. Yes they all do at the same time, every 3 months, the next tier update comes when July finishes and the stats for this month are taken. What are the advantages of using Scizor and Dragonite...

    I have a team involving a Jolteon, Spore-punch Toxic heal, Breloom, Starmie, Porygon 2 w/evolite, trying to fit Espeon or a physical attacker, but I'm having trouble coming up with a good Starter, do you have any suggestions for something that may fit or be useful?

    They were supposed to raise Speed and Accuracy while putting any non-Water that used them to Sleep. Permanently one would assume, so using Trick with a Water type on a counter would disable them for the whole match, man was it a dissapointment when it turned out they were fake...

    I'm planning on making a team involving a Baton pass/Specs Jolteon, Technician Breloom and Rapid spin/Life orb Starmie, probably also a Dragon Dance Salamence, which other 2/3 Pokemon would benefit the team most? Help with synergy, setting up and helping set up and all that.
  15. Ask a Simple Question, Get a Simple Answer - Read FAQ in First Post Before Asking

    So I'm trying to make a team, using Jolteon, Breloom and Starmie as central, mostly because of their coolness, what other Pokemon would be best to put alongside them to help them perform best?
  16. Starmie

    I totally agree, it's like they switched Starmie and Slowking/bro's abilities. Starmie is the one with healing factor, Slowking the slow intelligent one...
  17. Electra Ball: The Reverse Gyro Ball

    Electra ball will have to be used with Thunder wave or Agility support if not even Jolteon could do decent damage with it if it had it, look at these numbers: A) 150 base power if target has less than 98 speed. B) 120 base power if target has between 98 and 131 speed. C) 80 base power if target...
  18. Bulb

    Well, it's indeed situational, but very powerful if pulled off, and it's not as if Water attacks are rarely used. The use of Rock or Fire Pokemon as lures can also help and the payoff offsets the disadvantages.
  19. Bulb

    IIRC, Pokejungle listed the bulb as one-use only, if that's the case then we can use: Sceptile@Bulb :Unburden One time double Speed + Sp. Atk boost for coming in on a resisted attack? Yes please.
  20. Jolteon

    Jolteon not getting Eleci ball is retarded, but hopefully he'll be able to attain it at some point within this generation. On the subject of Volt Change, Jolteon can use Aiming Mark to make it work even against grounds, but it'll lose the power of Choice specs or Life orb in the process...
