So, was actually pretty...

    A Quickstart Guide to ORAS Breeding/Training

    Thanks. No clue why that data doesn't seem common in most breeding guides. Would have been nice before doing 60 eggs or so with an inner focus pawniard.

    Data ASB Feedback & Game Issues Thread - Mk III

    Thanks for the welcome! So spite effects three moves of your choice at once? Skill description wasn't quite clear on it all being at once. Also, just wondering. If a person can burn down an opponent's energy fast as health, but in doing so would sacrifice the moves which help it stall, is that...

    A Quickstart Guide to ORAS Breeding/Training

    Breeding question. With non-hidden abilities, what are the odds of getting one or the other and what effects this? I haven't seen any info about it, but breeding pawniards has netted me 75% or greater sharing the mother's ability. This is out of near 200 eggs. Maybe I've just been bad at...

    Data ASB Feedback & Game Issues Thread - Mk III

    Pretty new to Smogon and decided ASB looked interesting enough to check out. Got rather excited thinking of a potential pokemon who could benefit hugely from these mechanics. Finally, I had my hopes dashed after finding the ability and skill lists. Admittedly what I was seeking could be termed...

    Childish Shelter. Breeding Project Give Aways

    Hey guys, I got a new breeding project ready for give aways. I'll post how much of each I have in stock once I decide I've got enough, but feel free to request one. The newest arrivals are adamant pawniards.

    Used to be really into nuzlocking. Always loved zubat because though they start a bit weak they often are the first to reach their third evolution. At that stage in the game they're even a bit bulky and hit plenty hard. The only thing that turned me off occasionally was disliking having it in...

    Unpopular opinions

    Unpopular opinion (in the competitive scene): While less challenging, the idea behind having a team based on one type is really cool. It adds more to the character of each gym leader. Norman's gym in Ruby and Sapphire, attempting somewhat to have a gym based on different strategies, was rather...

    A god of one universe taking a vacation in another. Sounds like an anime for sure. Edit: Dang, we're off track.

    Unpopular opinions

    Well shoot, now I think about it, that's pretty much damning proof "Arceism" is canon. It doesn't rule out the possibility of other poke-gods, but it's a pretty good indicator that legends about Arceus creating stuff are legit. So how do we justify legendary vs in battle abilities? Cuz honestly...

    Unpopular opinions

    I'm not sure how, but before I started seeing other people's opinions and before platinum, I thought Cynthia seemed like she was kind of lost, like she felt insecure. And she decided to look into mythology for answers. Really not sure why I made that connection. Because of that though, I never...

    But... Alder has 3 bug pokemon (escavalier, accelgor, volcarona). He was pretty easy to beat though (or maybe that's just because it was really easy set up with volcarona on his lead). As for mine... Team Flair's goal is actually pretty interesting, though they tried to dumb it down too much...

    pokemon storage system lore

    I do like the ranch theory for the PC, though it commonly being referred to as a "storage system" seems to imply otherwise, or at least that there is some form of electronic storage involved along with the ranch. On the subject of space for such a ranch, what happens to all the little level...

    Unpopular opinions

    Not sure breeding for IVs is popular or unpopular. Just recently tried my hand at breeding. I really enjoyed it until about the second box of eevees. Think the problem was I had a few too many variables I was aiming for (gender/HA/IVs). Still, really happy with the result and got loads of the...

    pokemon storage system lore

    It's a balance between morality and realism. Pokemon not being like animals is not realistic. The more unlike animals they are, the further you stray from reality. Nuzlockes are not unrealistic. They're simply without morals (generally, as there are exceptions to most everything). That or the...
