  1. Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl - Release 19th Nov 2021

    So my Poketch completely disappeared shortly after I defeated the 3rd gym. No matter how many times or how long I press R it just doesn't show up... Wondering if anyone here has the same issue?

  4. (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    That Milotic was a pain for that time of the game, right after 6th Gym in a Route where's always raining that insanely boosts it's Water STAB. I'm not sure if it had Recover or the Ace Trainer had a Full Restore, but anyway it was definetly overpowered, in fact they removed Milotic in Emerald...
  5. Things in Pokémon which really hit you by surprise

    As a kid, exploring Mt.Silver in Gold and finding a trainer in the middle of nowhere with an insanely overleveled team. Knewing that was the real final battle of the game.
  6. (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    I absolutely hate fishing and everything related to. Fishing is incredibly boring, 95% of the times you know you'll find crap and the painful slow mechanics just make it all worse. Oh and the terrible fishing puns that wimpy Fishermen trainers just adore to say and have been saying since Gen...

  8. Challenge The Nuzlocke Challenge - Mark 2

    I'm starting a Nuzlocke in Soul Silver. Apart from the main rules I'll add a couple more: 1- When entering a new route you can't come back until you reach a new town/city 2- When fighting a Gym Leader, you must use the same number of Pokémon as he/she. 3- In those battles, you can't use a...

  10. Pokémon Alola Golem

    Honestly, Galvanize Alola-Golem is terrible. It's not a matter of how powerful it is, surely boosted Returns are strong, but a matter of typing and coverage. This thing is totally hopeless against Ground types which swarm right into its face and basically get a free turn of rocks or setup. Your...
  11. Taillow

    First of all, thank you all for the advice, I really appreciate it. I mantain Quick Attack is a key move in the Guts set and it shouldn't be slashed with anything, ensuring a 2HKO in common scarfers or faster Pokémon that otherwise could easily force Taillow out. It is also the only way it can...
  12. XY UU Viability Ranking Thread

    I must ask this: why is Articuno even in the list? Articuno was horrible last gen and XY gave the arctic bird 3 new things: Defog, Freeze Dry and Assault Vest. With a x4 weakness to Stealth Rock and a horrible defensive typing, Articuno doesn't seem to be the best user of Defog, specially...
  13. Taillow

    Thanks for your comment. My calcs are not wrong. Yours are different because you used different EV distributions (lol) I think Air Slash is superior to Boomburst in some, albeit rare, situations for example against those Pokémon you mentioned but also against Soundproof Pokémon which are...
  14. Taillow

    Overview ######## Pros: . 2 great abilities in Guts and Scrappy . Excellent 85 Base Speed allows it to hit the popular 19 number with a positive speed nature. . Hits extremely hard when holding a Status Orb to abuse Guts . High powered STABS in Brave Bird, Facade (when statused) and Boomburst...
  15. Pokémon Salamence

    I've been using this exact same set except with Defog in Hydro Pump's place. I strongly recommend it.
