    S.T.A.B.-Only Tournament - Signups

    Sky Forme Shaymin has been added to the list of Pokemon banned from use, on the grounds that I forgot it existed when I first made this topic.

    S.T.A.B.-Only Tournament - Signups

    (Get it? Sword? Stab? Whatever.) As voted by yourselves, our annual winter tournament will be a standard 6vs6 tournament with a pretty significant twist: Pokemon are only allowed to use moves that they share a type with. For example, Blastoise can only use Water-type moves, and Lucario can only...

    OK, so, after some deliberation (sort-of) I've decided to amend the "original typing" rule by treating Mega Evolutions as separate entities from their original forms. What this means is that Charizard's "original typing" is Fire/Flying as far as STAB is concerned. However, Mega Charizard X is no...

    That covers your movesets. Use the info there to decide which moves are best. It's better you learn yourself what you're looking for instead of me giving you information without you knowing why those choices work. Everything else you've said is fine for now. As for the natures, look up. I...

    Well, I'll sum it up for you simply: - You have reasons for having two attacks of the same type - just not good ones. Having Giga Drain and Energy Ball on the same set is completely pointless since Energy Ball does only slightly more damage but doesn't heal you, so Giga Drain will be the better...

    No. I'm not sure which parts you read, but evidently none of it sunk in. http://pokecharms.com/threads/competitive-battling-guide-movesets-moves-and-held-items.11777/ That topic will tell you why your movesets still need work and why your hold items are still poor.

    Chosen Favourites Tournament - Battle Brackets

    Shocari is deemed the champion in that case. The list of chosen favourites is as follows: MegaBlastoise15 got Armaldo BlackoutSLM got Zoroark Brendan got Swalot Teapot got Grumpig Steveplays got Tangrowth Psycho Monkey got Entei Lodz_Darkanine got Regice SpaxThePacifist got Granbull AzureEdge...

    If you're attempting the Super Subway with this you'll get crushed once the stronger stuff starts showing up with the three monkeys as your team. No moveset will help them consistently beat waves of legendary Pokemon. Also, your movesets show a lack of understanding of the basics. Your natures...

    As hilarious as it would be to make someone insta-lose by Skill Swapping or Soaking them for a DQ, Ruko is right. Basically, if the Normal-type move would have been under the effect of the ability (and thus would have had STAB) when the user selected it, it's OK. If not, it's DQ, since you've...

    They will likely work as follows: - Refridgerate, Pixilate and Aerilate will allow their users to access Normal-type moves as the moves are no longer Normal-type under their effects. However, if the ability is only accessible via Mega Evolution, the Pokemon will have to Mega Evolve to use the...

    Our next tournament will be STAB-only unless a lot of people suddenly decide they want something else. I'll give about one more week for people to choose.

    Chosen Favourites Tournament - Battle Brackets

    Our final is set: Shocari vs MegaBlastoise15. Remember, the final battle is best 2 out of 3. Hopefully you'll get it done within a week, but since no-one's waiting for you you can get it done at your earliest convenience, whenever that is.

    Of all the ideas mentioned, STAB-only and generation lock are my favourites. A tongue-in-cheek "Genwunner" tournament where only R/B/Y Pokemon allowed would be quite funny. Of course, it's up to you guys to decide which idea you like the most. A lot of really good ones have been mentioned so...

    XY/ORAS Singles New Team (OU)

    For better or for worse, there's not much to say about this one: - Consider a Hidden Power type over Dragon Pulse if you find certain threats are causing you problems. I find HP Ice to be the most useful but it'll depend on what you face and need to beat. - Celebi's fine. - Keldeo doesn't...

    Probably more gimmicky than Monotype and Little Cup but I wouldn't consider it too over-the-top. I remember one of the Pokemon Stadium games doing something similar to this so if enough people want it, it isn't out of the question.

    Monotype and Little Cup have been done so far, so there's been a theme for each one but nothing ridiculously gimmicky. If people would like something in a similar vein to this but not a repeat of the two already used, I'm open to ideas.

    It's done. I have noticed that this isn't your first name change. Don't make a habit of this.

    I can. You need to tell me what you want it changing to first.
