    Next Tournament Ideas

    Next tournament signups will be going live on January 1st 2017. It'll be Gen VII singles 6vs6 post-Bank on Pokemon Showdown. I'm pretty sure we do this earlier every single year, but hey.

    Sun/Moon Singles Battle Spot Team Suggestions

    I've mentioned this in another topic here, but 3vs3 Battle Spot Singles is all about seizing momentum early and keeping it. For that reason, you want to load yourself out with offensive power as much as you can and make the Pokemon you lead out with something that can immediately threaten a lot...

    Sun/Moon Singles Battle Tree Help!

    If Fighting-types are a problem Alolan Marowak can help a bit, although Fighting-types tend to use Rock and Ghost/Dark moves for coverage and he's weak to both and quite slow as well. Machamp especially can carry Knock Off to really ruin your day since it removes your Thick Club if you survive...

    Sun/Moon Singles Umbreon Moveset Help?

    Correct. I think we're done here.

    Sun/Moon Singles Battle Tree Help!

    Moved to the correct board. 3vs3 singles is all about starting out strong and trying to run over the opponent before they can really do anything. The battles are effectively won and lost on the first turn a lot of the time, so you'll want to lead off with something that beats most opponents...

    That is all.

    Your games of 2016: Good, OK, and bad

    Exactly what it says it is, except I actually played a lot of games this year so I'll just stick with one Pokemon game and one non-Pokemon game for each category. The Good: Honestly, this was the only game I've played that came out this year that I actually thought was very good, and I...

    XY/ORAS Singles Pokemon showdown uu team help

    Not a huge amount to say, pretty solid overall. Changes/suggestions are in bold: Sylveon can run a more support-oriented set with Wish and Protect over Psyshock and Shadow Ball with Leftovers as the item and the Speed EVs put into bulk instead, but the current set is good too. *You're missing...

    Sun/Moon Singles Team Suggestions

    Aegislash beats the Tapu pretty handily if played right. Tapu Koko's STAB Fairy options are a bit crap (Dazzling Gleam off the weaker stat) and is weak to Garchomp's Earthquake. A type weakness isn't worth worrying about if something resists it. You could have four Pokemon weak to Ground and...

    Sun/Moon Singles Team Suggestions

    I would have at least one Pokemon carrying Stealth Rock on the team. If Garchomp happens to be the only one that can use it then I'd either keep it on Garchomp or swap someone out for a 'Mon that carries it. I personally liked using a mixed Mega Garchomp in singles for shits and giggles. Three...

    Sun/Moon Singles Team Suggestions

    I'm assuming Whimsicott's ability is Prankster. If it is, Encore over Giga Drain (your Taunt is faster than anything else's so with good prediction you can never be Taunted) and drop the Sash for Leftovers or something. Choice Scarf is wasted on Primarina since it'll still be outsped by a fair...

    Sun/Moon Singles Potential Sun/Moon Post-Bank Team?

    The best example I can think of that's been around recently would be something like Mega Charizard Y. As soon as it hits the board it triggers Drought to boost its already powerful Fire-type attacks, so dropping it in on anything slower than it that can't resist Fire is going to present an...

    Sun/Moon Singles Potential Sun/Moon Post-Bank Team?

    Toxapex doesn't really need Baneful Bunker and Toxic Spikes, especially since the former can only ever apply normal poison, and really you want to be getting your opponents badly poisoned instead by double-layering Toxic Spikes. Haze is a good choice. Gliscor is fine. He can run a HP/Speed set...

    Sun/Moon Singles Potential Mimikyu Set(Pre-Bank?)

    Pretty much everything necessary has been mentioned bar a few points. Leech Life isn't amazing on a purely offensive Mimikyu set since it doesn't offer any coverage that Mimikyu needs (you hit Grass super-effectively - yay.) The healing effect might benefit, but you'd probably get better...

    Next Tournament Ideas

    I imagine Smogon will have updated Showdown for the Sun/Moon content by Christmas if they haven't already done so, so the next tournament will be Gen VII Showdown, hopefully during Christmas.

    Sun/Moon Singles Team Rating Wanted!

    I question the quality of your competition, because your natures, hold items and movesets are all bad. Sticking random moves of different types on a Pokemon =/= good moveset, and Incineroar and Lycanroc both stand out as being especially bad. My first advice would be to read the sticky topics...

    Sun/Moon Singles Umbreon Moveset Help?

    No, just leave it as it is. Other people may want to provide input as well.
