Nope, pretty much everything important is on the Smogon server unless you want to play some weird OM for some reasonPardon my ignorance, Found it under tiers. I thought there would be a server dedicated to it. Thanks.
I'd offer but I'm new myself.I am trying to get into battlespot battling now, anyone here who can help me with the basics?
Look through the threads we have here and chat in the showdown room for some help. It's hard to explain everything in one post but most of the threads we have here explain everything you need to know. :) And chatting with people who know what they're doing on showdown/irc is always nice too, they can give you insight you might not find here.I am trying to get into battlespot battling now, anyone here who can help me with the basics?
Hey Arhan, (I'm not trying to have a go here but..) try lurking/reading a couple of the threads we have here like the Singles Viability Rankings thread or Singles General Discussion thread. There's also the Teambuilding / RMT thread as well as things like the Doubles Discussion thread, CCAT Triple thread etc. No one is going to give you a full run down in the Simple Questions thread, you need to do some of the work yourself :) Once you have a general idea for Pokemon / teams you want to use and what meta (singles/doubles/etc.) you want to play then someone can give you some more detailed advice (but make sure you post in the respective thread!I am trying to get into battlespot battling now, anyone here who can help me with the basics?
Lopunny would be coolHey guys, I want to do a giveaway since OR/AS is coming up and I was wondering what new Mega people want most so they can be ready to go when the games drop.
I posted on Twitter and I have one vote each for DD Mence and Beedrill. Can be any new Mega that's legal on Battle Spot so no troll Diancie posts :P
I vote ddance mega'mence. Is jolly or adamant better?Hey guys, I want to do a giveaway since OR/AS is coming up and I was wondering what new Mega people want most so they can be ready to go when the games drop.

+1 for Mence from me (it's the only one I haven't got around to breeding for myself yet hehe). Perhaps a mixed nature would be good for it (naive / naughty / rash (gotta save that physical def!)). Even DD sets can benefit from a Draco Meteor / Hydro Pump / Hyper VoiceI have females of both, thinking people would prefer Jolly but I personally have no preference. Adamant speed ties with +Speed base 105s for reference, and I think is typically better for bulky sets.
Votes right now:
DD Mence - 2
Beedrill - 1
Lopunny - 1
Once you get to 1800-1900 you'll start to be amonst good players.Hey, whats a good ranking for battle spot doubles, im at 1700 now, would like to know if its good.
tbh I think NOVED is being a little extreme (I'm taking his use of the word 'good' quite literally here). A ranking in the 1700s is nothing to scoff at, and I've found the 1700-1800 bracket quite competitive. I know for a fact if you stopped playing and submitted your score at the end of the season to the Smogon Battle Spot Leaderboard you'd probably be right up there for the doubles ranks (I'm going off past submissions here). If you take a look at the PGL rankings (under maintenance at time of writing this) you'll notice that the best players are ranked from 1900-2000+ though, but it also takes a butt load of battles to reach that high.Hey, whats a good ranking for battle spot doubles, im at 1700 now, would like to know if its good.
Huh, that's a really weird issue. Are you sure you're playing rated? Rating only resets at the beginning of a season.Well, i dont battle a lot, and every time global link goes under maintenance, my score is reseted to 1500.
