I'm glad you found something in Illumise, but cannot agree with your critique of my moveset (maybe we can discuss this again when you hit 1500+). Protect is necessary at least for opposing Fake Out and Focus Sash is indicated at least for Gale Wings Talonflame4, never mind that I've played both...

There's only a 3% chance (accuracy delta) Psyshock would have helped more against +6 evasion Blissey4 than Gem Draco -- both OHKO at +6, and against Policemen it's not hard to set up at least one of Volc/Cune to +6 and copy the boost. Resisted Gem Draco is still stronger than super-effective HP...

"Postgame" (i.e. entire game) is battle facilities (and PvP for other people), everything else in Pokémon is a waste of time. The more difficult, the better, usually, but I often prefer building my own teams over draft formats (I would always at least play Factory, though): S-tier: 1. Subway 2...

:bw/hitmontop: :bw/volcarona: :bw/suicune: :bw/latias: Hitmontop (M) @ Wide Lens EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spe Ability: Intimidate Level: 50 Adamant Nature - Fake Out - High Jump Kick - Sucker Punch - Stone Edge Volcarona (F) @ Charti Berry EVs: 244 HP / 148 Def / 4 SpA / 4 SpD / 108 Spe...

Separate. It's a patch, you can remove it again at any time. There is also a save file available separately that gives you "100%" game completion -- you should back up your save before installing it. It's mostly not necessary if you use PKHeX, which is allowed for the EisenTree leaderboard -- in...

It's a mod designed by Eisenherz, you can find it on the Discord server (and if you have cfw, you can play it on your 3DS with a legal instance of USUM -- installing cfw is not hard, imo, and afaik it's not at all illegal either). The aim is basically to make Tree more VGC/DOU-like; sets /...

Your team reminds me of a squad (two, actually) that I played in EisenTree (hey people itt, play EisenTree): Latias @ Latiasite, 252 HP / Spe, Timid, Levitate; Calm Mind / Psychic / Ice Beam / Recover Incineroar @ Mago Berry, ~ 252 HP / SpD, Careful, Intimidate; Fake Out / Flare Blitz / Knock...

I think too many beginners worry too much about "originality" in the wrong way. Customizing your sets to maximize team performance with a given four species is important, of course. But e.g. playing Manectric instead of Tapu Koko (not to harp on this, just bringing it up because it's fresh on my...

:bw/ninetales: :bw/scrafty: :bw/latios: :bw/charizard: Ninetales @ Focus Sash, 252 SpA / Spe, Modest, Drought; Nasty Plot / Heat Wave / Solar Beam / Protect Scrafty @ Fighting Gem, 244 HP / 244 Atk / 20 Spe, Adamant, Intimidate; Fake Out / Drain Punch / Payback / Protect Latios @ Life Orb, 252...

:bw/gyarados: :bw/raichu: :bw/landorus: :bw/scizor: Gyarados @ Lum Berry, 220 Atk / 124 SpD / 164 Spe, Jolly, Intimidate; Dragon Dance / Waterfall / Return / Protect Raichu @ Focus Sash, 252 SpA / Spe, Timid, Lightning Rod; Fake Out / Protect / Thunderbolt / HP Ice Landorus @ Life Orb, 252 SpA...

If you ever play Manectric again, you should consider Eerie Impulse, even with Aurora Veil (but really Aurora Veil is overkill with Manectric and Ninetales-A should be something else, ideally with a move like Calm Mind). Manectric is not Tapu Koko. It's meant to facilitate setup by crippling...

Do you know Tarkovskiy's Solaris? Not Anglo, so you wouldn't have listed it. If you like sci-fi movies about "human connection" (I also think Blade Runner and A Space Odyssey are fantastic), it should appeal to you...

Gravity is probably better with Lando-I than T. Could be worth trying, but the issue is that I don't see it surpassing the Scrafty team. Lando really appreciates Electric co-leads and Scrafty does much of what Sableye does more reliably / more actively. Intimidate is just better than Prankster...

I published a thimbleful of poems in a literary magazine last year (first time I tried submitting anything). They were written in 2016 and 2021; most of what I've written before 2021 has been destroyed by myself. Indeed the first ten years of writing are always horrible. I'm happier that this...

Jeg prøver at snakke dansk, fordi mine forældre og deres forældre kommer fra grænseområdet, altså er det en slags familietradition. Og jeg skal tage nordpå, altid nordpå, indtil jeg kommer til landet af mælk og honning, Hyperborea. I mellemtiden læser jeg Flensborg Avis og Karen Blixen og...

The Dream of the Red Chamber (I cannot read Chinese...)

Looking back at my best Subway teams so far (PKHeX'd, you know it): :bw/sawk: :bw/latios: :bw/bisharp: :bw/milotic: JetSawk (291 wins) :bw/landorus: :bw/raikou: :bw/scrafty: :bw/suicune: Scrafty Triangle (636) :bw/whimsicott: :bw/heatran: :bw/rotom-wash: :bw/latios: Jump WhimsiTran (325) And...

Reporting streaks of 227 and 238 with another new team! (still PKHeX'd) :landorus-therian: Landorus-T @ Choice Scarf, 252 Atk / enough Spe for 201 stat / rest HP, Adamant, Intimidate; Earthquake / Rock Slide / Fly / U-turn :gengar: Gengar @ Focus Sash, 252 SpA / Spe, Timid, Levitate; Shadow...

mackattack93 had been playing Tornadus / Heatran leads and I got curious. Here's a 325 streak (PKHeX involved), my second-best result playing Subway: :whimsicott: Whimsicott @ Focus Sash, 252 HP / SpD, Calm, Prankster; Tailwind / Fake Tears / Encore / Protect :heatran: Heatran @ Fire Gem, 252...

If you shuffle between Chansey/Aegi (on Close Combat)/Gyara on Arcanine4 lead, you can stall it out of Close Combat (this is to respect the crit chance), Growl it to -6 if it isn't already, and set up Gyarados to more than +1 (leaving aside that you could have gotten in more DDs against...
