[QUOTE=Maruhai;37242074]If you're saying that because they're transparent you're wrong because that's how they were made. I own FireRed, Emerald and Yellow, and they look perfectly like the ones in that picture.[/QUOTE] Everyone knows about the transparency, it's just redundant to mention that And they don't I compared it with my copy for Fire Red Where that "Nintendo Seal" is? That's where the ESRB rating should be
So, is Pokemon Conquest out in US? I need a good reason to get a DS some day, and the local Gamestop doesn't have Advance Wars: Dual Strike.

[QUOTE=Nitro836;37229751]I've said it before, but I'm not sure I like how NARROW one'sselection of tactics and movesets becomes in competitive play.[/QUOTE] Play UU or restricted OU (no permaweather, ban a few of the more bullshit things) and play with your friends. In that kind of environment my nidoking is a boss, staple on most of my teams and he's pretty low UU at best. We also get LOTS of team variety one of my friends played a team with a butterfree lead that had sunny day and tailwind and it was pretty damn viable and tough to play against. Only problem is there's like 3 pokemon that have been killing our local metagame, the main one is my friends porygon2. I hit it with a fighting gem boosted hi jump kick on mienshao and it did 90% damage. Fucking bullshit.
I've been pondering the idea of Trick Room teams, and I realized that if Trick Room ever got a duration extending item like Damp Rock and etc, it'd be totally overpowered.
I technically play OU. I rarely use perma-weather, though. In fact, rarely are my teams composed of even half OU mons. I guess I only follow tiers because everyone else insists on using them. I'm not saying that I like Über free for alls, or anything. They're in that tier for a reason. But I don't like the idea of excluding Pokémon. I kind of wish GF would nerf all of the banned mons, so that they are only legendary due to the stories surrounding them, instead of game-breaking power. It'd be nice to be in a position where we could play with all the Pokémon and devise strategies with some of our favorites. It's not like UUs and NUs are useless in OU. You just have to be creative. Like Gastric said, it is much more fun to come up with new, unexpected things. The reason I still love these games is because of the mental stimulation from devising strategies. I also love doubles and triples, too. Still, I don't think there's anything wrong with using the tried and true sets sometimes. The game does get stale, though, when you are essentially using entire teams of templates, because a site says to use them. Sorry about that hippie rant. I hope it makes sense.
I took out a guy's entire team with a Swalot today. [IMG]http://i838.photobucket.com/albums/zz301/GastricTank/swalot-1.png[/IMG] :UUUUUUU
How the fuck did you manage that? On the topic of your crazy scizor, it's really cool and awesome and it would fuck people up but seriously man put bullet punch on that shit he's so slow.

Also Scizor learns Agility. As long as the opponent doesn't have priority attacks (and even then, priority attacks against a Scizor are either weak to begin with or not very effective.), he's golden.
[QUOTE=Mr Glynn;37259717]I've been pondering the idea of Trick Room teams, and I realized that if Trick Room ever got a duration extending item like Damp Rock and etc, it'd be totally overpowered.[/QUOTE] I always laugh when I use my Trick Room Slowbro. I gave it a Macho Brace to ensure that it's as slow as I can possibly make it. I just imagine my opponent letting a little bit of pee out when it says "Lenny used TRICK ROOM!" :v:
Playing Pokemon White, oh my god it's so good. I freaked out a bit when I got to Skyarrow Bridge though :v:

IIRC in one of the Pokemon games, the names before you choose, are Ninten for you and Sony for the rival. This can be seen if you use cheats/hacks to bypass the naming screens. The reason being in the games memory the spot can't be empty so something needs to be stored there, and who ever programmed that in, put those names. Or something like that.

No, they were not a choice, they are the default names for the characters in memory before you choose them, [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJoz71F26II[/media] [url]http://tcrf.net/Pok%C3%A9mon_Red_and_Blue#Default_Player_Character_Names[/url]

I'm pretty positive that's just a coincidence not all of those DYKgaming things are right

The colors on that are awesome.
I plan to pair Dual Screens Telepathy Gardy with Wailord with Water Spout and Earthquake. I hope this shit works.
