    Unpopular opinions

    Hacking rare candies is commonplace for Nuzlocke content, mainly because streamers realized that nobody wants to watch them run back and forth grinding a mon from level 42 to level 100 There are cases where you can't use an Exp. Share because that means something else is getting xp too...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    When Iron Fist was first added, it was only given only to Hitmonchan so it can't be that they thought the pokemon were already strong enough. Either way, :melmetal: is here now and keeps it from ever getting buffed Mythicals not being allowed in VGC could be its own thing entirely, it made...

    "Worst Pokémon Ever"

    Let's look to SHUCKLE for the worst pokemon ever This thing has both Sticky Web and Stealth Rock, plus Encore to prevent setup and Final Gambit for early momentum combined with Sturdy, this thing was born to be a suicide lead, so they give it good speed, at least base 100, decent attack and its...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    The options aren't Slow/Mid/Fast, they're Slow/Slow/Mid There is no "Instant" option and there is no "Skip to end" button I use medium text speed sometimes bc that's the default and emulator speed-up can make you forget to put it on fast On the Regigigas discussion: (+ Tri-Attack)

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    -Moving NPCs that keep getting in your way every time you try to sidestep them (NOT story-based barriers) -Trying to turn without taking a step on emulator speed-up -Cave maps that just show the path and layout, but not where the trainers/items are -Getting a TM, but then realizing that your...

    Metagame Fortemons

    I found that Riolu's biggest problem is how matchup dependent it is. In a good matchup ie no priority and no dark types, just don't make a big mistake and you win easily. On the other hand in a bad matchup ie multiple dark types and multiple priority mons, you lose unstoppably unless they make a...

    Metagame Fortemons

    What's up with turn 1 Sacred Sword clickers? Do ppl wanna risk the entire game on a 50/50 turn 1? Do they think they're the only ones with Sacred Sword? Here's the scenario I'm referring to: 1. Both go Sam-H 2. Both click Sacred Sword 3. One side loses the speed tie and starts the game 5v6...

    Metagame Fortemons

    Moves that WERE used with an uncopycattable forte cannot be copycatted, meaning you cannot copycat your own moves after phazing the opponent However what you can do is copycat a previously-used move that didn't have the circle throw forte and then you'll get circle throw's effect at +1...

    DLC additions: :chimecho: Cresselia's sins have been atoned for and no more will there be headaches in the teambuilder over Levitate + Recovery. Previously, Cryogonal was the only one with Levitate + Recovery, now we have a second option with an arguably better movepool: Wish, Heal Bell, Calm...

    Metagame Frantic Fusions (New resources @ Post #387)

    Hearthflame has a bit of a 4MSS, it has coverage to hit its checks but it can only run 1 coverage move due to needing SD and dual stab: It's not just Fire, both of your stabs are also resisted by Dragon, you need Play Rough for Dragonite, Kommo-O and Haxorus, Play Rough/Low Kick for Roaring...
