what use are the abilities light metal & Heavy metal? all they seem to do is halve/double the pkmn's weight.

I build my current team, while first choosing 2 pkmn I liked to use, after that I concentrated on a certain aspect for the remaining four. After some testing and slightly modifying, I got a good clue about my team of how I want it. there are certain aspects that I like to keep using, and some I...

If done right then you can learn alot of your defeat. When I ran on the one occasion a Blisey, I learned what one of its counters were... so if you truly hate a pokemon for being unable to defeat it, use it to learn its way of defeat!

I have the same trouble. To learn what works and not, and when. to know the right amount of EV's to use and how to know wat you need to keep in mind. It's still vague to me...

Very nice warstory. Alot less standard pkmn,Even pkmn you don't even expect to see in a battle. Shaymin, has shown to be able to battle and I like it to see Dragonite for once instead of those other wretched dragons...

Defensive Crobat interests me, but I wonder, by which pkmn currently used can it switch in and actually do something(not just hypnose the friggin pkmn)? Heracross and Breloom, are already mentioned. maybe Sceptile, Infernape, Tangrowth, Roserade and Machamp can be placed in the list as well...

Not if it is a hard to counter one, that is... First when I read Surgo's thread, I had a good feeling about what he meant, but unable to put it down for practical purposes. Now, I don't seem to get at all what is meant by it, for there are many ways to explain it. is it just being original? is...

all this confuses me, a strategy team is made to be a threat, not to counter threats. yet why do we have jumpman's long list of pkmn that need to be countered? so shouldn't we concentrate on being a threat and cover up the holes in the strategy?

very nice story, gives me something to think about...time to open that Word document and get on with my team again... edit: on turn #31, wouldn't Pain split haven't been a better choice?

another warstory, and a nice one as well. It also gives me some data on Spiritomb, if I gonna use it for my team. I hope more warstories with a large variety of pkmn show up.

thank you phuquoph, Aninymouse. Together with what Wishtaker(thank you) send me, I think I can improve my team and strategy by alot. so unless someone else has something to add, I'll be busy...

Like you are considering yourself, replace sword dance by protect. Even if a Rock blaster or something similar is the starting pkmn, you can protect and still get +1 speed through.

very good warstory. It also shows the power of prediction. I hope far more warstories will show up sooner or later...

*sigh* I think i should think over my team and let this thread die. But before that I want some advise for what I should improve in general and what are the largest treats of DP I need to worry about. I want my team to have: 2 EQ immunities 2 WoWers 1 Stealth Rocker(atleast one) 1 ghost(as...

@great sage: Do you have an opinion on how much def I should give Bronzong? @Yawn: I can't think of much pkmn that are slower than speed hindering nature swampert and that could get hit hard by Snow slide. Confuse Ray is indeed a luck based attack. however if you can couple that with WoW...

I think a 120 bp attack that is 4 times as effective takes quite alot of salamence. I could be wrong though. well, for now I go to stone edge instead of Rock slide, it does seem to be more effective on pkmn who can change how powerful an attack is.

well, its changeable, however I doubt if I should change it. If I confuse my opponent three thing could happen. they attack and succeed, they attack and get damage and the switch out. what to do what to do... edit: I changed arm hammer to Rock Slide instead of stone edge. I like the higher...

I changed dusknoirs night shade, Frolass' Destiny Bond and Snorlax' EQ. about the rest I am a bit sceptical. but i will see what goes with the team. Question: is Confuse ray truly Rubbish or does it just seem so...?

Sorry for the very very very very very lame title. Alright, this is my first RMT that doesn’t involve steel types as the main theme. Well, after reading surgo’s thread I eventually came up with this: something to cover the field(Stealth rock), something to inflict on the opponent(WoW) and...

yeah, if it is a defensive wall, it should stand as long as it can thus take off explosion and replace it by snowslide... I wonder if cloyster actually could take on an attack of Gachomp...
