Requesting name change to Artemis04 I've been wanting to change my Smogon account name for quite a while now, and I haven't had the opportunity to actually have it changed until now. I made this name when I was 14, and now that I am around 18.5 years old, I do not wish for this name to remain...

Synopsis A 12 year old person walks down the cold halls of Sinnoh's Pokemon League. It's the end of their Nuzlocke, and they want nothing more than to get it over and done with. After getting past the brutal members that almost threatened to destroy their run and send them back to Twinleaf Town...

It's that time again to nominate more hidden mons for VR. Leavanny - D -> UR There is no reason to use this over Chesnaught or Tangrowth. Leavanny fails to counter Primal Groudon if it's even running the most basic pivoting move in U-Turn, and is weak to hazards. Kyurem-White - UR - D Whilst...

I see. In the case that Chesnaught isn't available, I'll reserve Abomasnow-Mega.

Reserving Chesnaught and Zapdos in Gen 6 Pure Hackmons Chesnaught: Chesnaught @ Shed Shell Ability: Primordial Sea EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD Relaxed Nature - Steam Eruption / Scald - Spiky Shield / King’s Shield - Haze / Whirlwind / Low Kick / Drain Punch - Recover Zapdos: Zapdos @ Shed...

More mons to nominate for VR - Chesnaught - UR -> D Chesnaught @ Shed Shell Ability: Primordial Sea EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def Impish Nature - Recover - Drain Punch / Close Combat / Focus Punch - Scald - Toxic This Pokemon walls every set remotely worth running on Primal Groudon, and...

I see. Would have thought that would've worked, but eh.

Interesting. By the way, why aren't protection moves (i.e Spiky Shield/Baneful Bunker) run to lower the power of CFZ moves? They can be used to scout any potential CFZ coverage; and will quarter the damage in the case of a CFZ if any are run. Is it due to opportunity cost, or another factor?

As for more Pokemon that could be moved - Kyogre-Primal - This Pokemon actually has a fair bit of utility it can abuse. - Base 150 Attack means it can run Huge Power sets to bait Specially Defensive checks and remove them from the game, allowing it to synergize well with Pokemon like Mega...

Not really. Geodude, Larvitar and Graveler are worse. As for Pokemon who should be placed on the Wonder Guard list, I'd like to nominate Zapdos and Thundurus - Zapdos/Thundurus (D Tier) - - Whilst the Ice-type and SR weakness is never appreciated on any Pokemon, it hard walls most Huge Power...

Introduction Here again with a team which shot to the skies, beyond the cosmos without the intention of it happening. This team dates back about five years (yes, this team is older than a fair portion of the world population), when I first stumbled across Pokemon Showdown. Shortly after, I...

Shell Smash: Do Not Ban

Voting DNB. I don't see what's so bad about Shell Smash, considering there are a lot of counters for it, including but not limited to: - Prankster - Imposter - Unaware - Spectral Thief - Whirlwind - Priority (Encore, FakeSpeed) - Shedinja Even if you get a bad matchup where your Pokemon...

Team Overview Well, it's been a while. I never intended Arcturus to reach such a high profile as it did. Being such a powerful stall team, most teams simply did not have the counters for it and lost to it instantly. Towards the end of the life of Generation 7 Balanced Hackmons, the team...

im back uwu

Will be posting an RMT on my main team once I hit 1780 Elo. By current trends of my skill, I estimate I will reach there by 16th of May, 2071.

Would like to reserve Mega Gengar for Balanced Hackmons.

Introduction I have decided to take one of my teams and release them into the public. I normally am very restrictive with these teams, and who they go to, but I sometimes accidentally leak them. This is my first time making an RMT, so I apologize if it isn't exactly a Shakespear play. This...
