    there is some value in their observations and conclusions, but they have turned away from the games themselves to worship at the altar of a synthetic computer stand-in, and for that, they are damned

    Actually, how does one check IVs? Don't you take a lv 1 pokemon into an online battle, record their stats and put it in a calculator?

    Basically what I am saying is: can somebody help me calculate some motherfucking IVs, because I have three mudkips with the same nature.

    I would also like to know this.

    because getting one single pokemon ready for battle takes a huge amount of time

    and I have to have six of them

    I'm not going to breed an entire second team based around a gimmick playstyle I still haven't entirely internalized

    Let me know what kind of stuff you want on your Riolu and I'll hook you up. Except for the IVs, I can't hook you up with those because I don't know them. And let me know what nickname you want for it.

    Nooo I can't find my DS and I finally hit my grove too.

    I just beat the Kanto gym leaders and rather than throw myself against E4v2 for the sake of leveling up, I was going through the pokedex one at a time and catching or evolving any Pokémon I didn't have.

    Gah, I hope I left it in my dresser or something.

    Well hey, looks like I got distracted last night and couldn't get to my DS.

    Dichotomy, I can hook you up with a Kabuto that knows Rapid Spin sometime after 6:00pm CST.

    And BugBoy, are you still looking for U-Turn? I think I might have it.

    I think the best way to gain BP might be the Battle Hall

    Sure you only get 1 BP every ten rounds to start, but the battles are really short and the Matron gives 20 BP on defeat

    Then after you get 2 BP for 60 and 3 BP for 70

    Just have to have a Choice Scarfed Special Sweeper with high Def (Dragonite, Kingdra, Garchomp, maybe Lucario)

    yes this is exactly how I feel

    use the pokemon you love, not the ones smogon tells you are "viable"

    fuck you smogon

    and as long as we all stick to this we can all actually do it

    No one went out of their way to use the very best, but tended to look at smogon for move sets and such what. Even munkus was using his favourites, but he intimidated a lot of people with his team so it kinda became an arms race.

    like 1/2 of nu is bug/flying anyway so it's pretty easy not to use them since I don't like pretty much any bug types. Then the ones like mightyena I would use if game freak would give it something resembling a move pool. You know it's bad when rock smash is one of the better moves for it. There are a lot of quality uus though.

    so you are that dude

    I got that PM right as I was about to go to bed and thought "I'll reply in the morning!" and then I forgot for like three days and panicked and decided to pretend it never happened and I forgot who sent it and it was easier to not check and just assume it was some lurker who would never bother me again and the entire process caused me deep shame and regret

    but anyways

    it's not like my counsel is all that wise

    I mean I only won my first battle the other day
    (and I only won because I could PP stall longer than Tsk's Milotic)
