Pokemon General Discussion Thread - It's Lit(ten)!

Does anyone have a spare Up-Grade and/or Dubious Disc I could have?

The Battle Mansion hax have been absurd today. Like, “Ice Beam missing a substitute Goodra three times in a row” absurd.

I was thinking about joining the Pokemon tournament at Apex but I don’t want to shell out $50 just to play Pokemon loool

@EveryFlowerFlow

I’d be happy to take a jelly of your hand to abuse for stats in the breeding dungeon if you’ve still got any thanks.

Got anything in particular you’d prefer for it? If not I’ll chuck you something with egg moves or a HA.

50 dollar tourney!?

Can anyone do two trades for me real quick?

anyone have moveset ideas for assault vest iron fist conkeldurr

Mach Punch/Drain Punch/Fire Punch/Ice Punch or Stone Edge depending on what you need hit.

Max HP/Attack/spread the rest to you Def/Sp. Def. as you see fit.

@Martian, you P-Z tried to learn Embargo… I selected no, but you can Heart Scale it if you want it.

yeah sure, you need to evolve something? my FC should be on the first page :tup:

what po said is all good but you cannot forget about payback being another great option (thanks to his poor speed) and if obtainable, knock off is a must

hey at least theres gonna be a lot less incest going on in these daycares now. thats something the pokes can be happy about. (well sort of)

i wish i could have elemental punches and knock off but those are tutor only moves

$40 late fee because I would be paying at the door. And then $10 for the Pokemon tourney. D:

Thats alot for some pokemanz

Hell naw… and you’d be playing under shitty Smogon rules? FUCK. THAT.

And fuck competitive Brawl while we’re at it.

Whats wrong with smogon

Go to the Competitive Pokemon thread and read any of my 9846 rants and if you have a few hours(and braincells to kill), any post by Mood4food.

Although you may just quit playing at that point, lol…

In all seriousness, its an okay place to gather knowledge on game mechanics and common sets, but for your own safety, do not venture further into that place’s philosophy or “metagame”…

Lol, its ok i think ill keep my brain cells.

look, i don’t care if you don’t want to run standard, that’s all fine

i’m trying to help you run something that is not entirely outclassed, as in, run an option that the pokemon already covers, and i back it up with reasoning, that’s it

you want to run a stalling garchomp set of substitute/dragon tail/earthquake/toxic, go ahead run it, i’ll suggest something else and you take it how it lies, i’m only trying to help

and just for the record, yes, a lot of people who post on smogon are idiots, just taking a gander at the stall thread to prove this

Go to a gamefaqs forum for any popular fighting game and imagine people actualy took them seriously and made and followed rules based on the scrubbiest of the bunch bitching about how Sagat is op, throwing more than one fireball in a row is cheating and invinciblity frames should be patched out or whatever.

Then mix it with a bunch of pricks being condescending twats towards anyone who isn’t exclusively using whatever’s left of the top tier after the scrubwave ™ has washed over it.

That is Smogen in a nutshell.

It has correct numbers on shit but that’s about all it’s good for.

I frequent gamefaqs and i see some of it, but i do like smogon rulesets
