    You did make me waste my Blastoise, though.

    Damn ghosts and their making Rapid Spin not work. That really needs to be fixed. I can spin and blow shit away without hurting you.

    It sounds plenty annoying. I have no idea if it would be great or terrible in practice.

    Oh god, it will be massivly annoying. Hail raises its evasiveness, AND double team.

    I just wanna use it because it looks weird.

    Considering how fragile Froslass is, you'd probably get killed before setting anything up though...

    It is a F-Mechivious. Will that give it a speed boost for the conf. ray to get off?

    Oh boy! Time to make a post so I identify where the Pokemon thread is in the forum!

    I think I'm spending most of tonight training up a sixth guy for my makeshift team. I don't expect the team to be exceptionally good, but at this point I'm just getting my feet wet with competitive battling. I need to set up a few other moves on my guys, so I expect to be ready to rumble tomorrow. Maybe later tonight, I dunno.

    I'm thinking of making a team around rain dance or sunny day at some point.

    Yes.

    Why do I have such horrible luck with this fucking thing

    HP: 27
    Att: 29
    Def: 10
    SpA: 27
    SpD: 0
    Speed: 21

    Those were the IVs from the one with the highest special attack AND speed.

    I had a few guys with ZERO in SpA and Speed D:D:D:

    Someone has to have a Bold Ditto.

    Anyone? Hell, I'd even trade a Rayquaza for it.

    Someone please lend me one. I really only need it until I get a female Bold Feebas.

    Something strange just happened. I was Ditto hunting and I was trying to catch this one.

    It transformed into my Staraptor and I started throwing balls. Normally I can catch them in 1-2 balls even if they are transformed.

    This one would not get caught. I used almost 15 balls on it of all types. I used Dusk, Quick, Nest and Ultra balls. Even weirder, it was faster than my Staraptor, who's level was more than double that of the wild Ditto. It actually KOed my Staraptor. I just ran from it after that.

    Transform also copies the species' catch rate, could that have been it? Not sure why it was faster, maybe a really good speed IV and a +speed nature.

    He didn't want to get caught maybe? those pokeballs can be pretty harsh...

    All you have to do against Dittos is switch to a Magikarp when you see them and then throw a pokeball.

    It was probably holding a Quick Powder, which would boost its speed.

    Makes sense.

    But the fact that I couldn't catch it is what was the strange thing. It never even shook once. I know that the pokeball shaking isn't an indication of if it is close to being caught, but it just struck me as odd.

    I think shaking is an indicator for non-legendaries with more normal catch rates. I've seen things gradually have more shakes on average as I whittle down their HP, add status effects, and so on.
