Hi guys, Gengod here, formerly known as Maniaclyrasist, (yes a name change was long overdue I know). Anyways, I’ve been around since early ADV so I’ve seen my fair share of trends and bans and I was actually one of the members of Smogon to get the ball rolling around 08-09 with initial...

Hey guys, haven't been around here in a while. Much has changed I see ._. Anyways, thought you guys might want to take a look at this. http://www.pojo.biz/board/showthread.php?t=1116395 It's a Pojo thread on their Yugioh forums where this guy basically brought forth the idea of doing a...

I haven't made a RMT in about 2-3 years, since my Uber team that featured Garchomp when he first got banned in Gen 4. so I figured I might as well make one for Gen 5. and see how that goes. Initially I wanted to do use something different since everyone and their mom is running some kind of...

OK! Recently I've been constantly looking through the suspect testing thread at the nominations of members of the community and I'm a bit appalled at some of the Pokemon that people are even suggesting. At the moment it seems like almost every new thing is a problem, Drizzle, Landlos...

[For context and purpose, see this thread.] I've read through a couple of the threads made recently in Policy Review and have been constantly keeping up with the discussion about tiers and the "no banlist" proposal over in the "What did we learn from tiering in generation four"? thread. One...

There has been a lot of controversy recently about Mew, Ho-oh and Deoxys-D with regards to them being actual suspects or not or remaining a suspect in Mew's case. There has also been some mention of testing Lati@s with Soul Dew. My question is, which of these Pokemon are actually going to be...

After Lati@s and Manaphy are done who exactly are we testing? There has been a fair amount controversy about Mew, Ho-oh and now Deoxys-D and in the OoO thread in PR there is little to no discussion concerning either. I didn't think it was really necessary to bring this up in PR so i'm asking...

I've been wondering recently why we actually placed this sort of psuedo-ban on Arceus. The argument for Arceus was that it hasn't yet been released yet by Nintendo, by why should this affect us? We already have all the information on Arceus, what moves it learns, it's typing with the plates...

We all know that with the release of Pokemon Platinum many Pokemon have been exposed to a variety of new moves that some of them could not previously obtain. This also holds true to the Pokemon in the Uber tier who also recieved quite a few new additions. With so many new moves the Uber metagame...
