    @Beasteh are people going adamant or jolly with kangaskhan

    i went with Jolly but between the fact that i'm using fake out and sucker punch and want to replace return with body slam i'm thinking adamant might be better? I dunno i can see pros and cons to both

    adamant because fuck you i got 100 speed and 125 attack you'd better believe im abusing it

    Yeah, how was that information even obtained?

    I thought datamining 3DS games wasn't possible at the moment.

    apparently through entering their names on the gts, those names being obtained from an old copyright list

    entering their names properly capitalizes them

    whereas adding something like PIKABLU doesn't

    @Shen is this kanga worth using? I could breed with a max attack ditto to give it good attack and speed right?

    Who do you want to outspeed with Jolly? http://www.smogon.com/bw/articles/ouspeed_tiers

    236 neutral no investment, 299 neutral full investment, 328 positive full investment. Rock Tomb is an option over Body Slam to half the speed of a switch-in. Lots of fun options for Kanga.

    Stalling before I go to fight the Elite 4. I know it will be super easy for me to beat them, with my main four being over level 80 and the ideal types for three of the battles, but I want to finish a lot of the dex first. I've got about 268 pokemon registered right now. Did the crazy person thing and set up my boxes to hold every pokemon in numerical order again. It's the Kalos orders first, but I will make it national order once I know the specific order of all the new things.

    That's probably up on serebii. But national dex numbers are the one spoiler I plan to avoid.

    Oh, did I give you a dud? It should have 31 in attack/def/SpD/speed. Got plenty of others if it's a bad one.

    Can swap it for a hp/atk/spD/speed one, though I can't make any promises about the defence :P

    Yeah, spending a ton of stat points so you can speed-tie with some stuff and have a 50% chance of acting first is kind of wasteful when you have that much priority to abuse. There isn't a whole lot between the 80s and the 100s that I can think of.

    Okay, so working on my team. So far I've got

    Noivern as a special sweeper
    Dedenne as a annoyer
    Aridos just so I can see if sticky webs have potential

    And potentially Abamasnow, although he would really need trick room to set him up

    does anyone have pikachus in their friend safari? With the buffed speed a lightning rod raichu actually seems fairly usable

    bait an electric move with a gyarados or whatever

    bring in raichu and get a sp. atk boost

    use encore to force another sp. atk boost

    sweep away

    The trio this time around is

    Yeah that thing is based off the starter you picked (the one the professor gives, not the one you get from your friends).

    How cute is a sylveon who fights by summoning a doll, going to sleep and kissing you in its sleep?

    So, trying to think about this

    Is fairy one of the better offensive types for coverage?

    Am I missing something here?

    Like it hits so few pokemon for 1/2 damage, and almost none for 1/4 damage

    My point is fairy types have at least a lot of neutral coverage
