I'm not entirely sure I'll be here. But send a PM my way? Or I send you one if I am here? If not send you one to set a time?

My Shuckle on pokemon online's journey to the troll-side is complete.....
A 134 turn battle, that Shuckle survived till turn 122, taking out 5 of the opponents pokemon by toxic. (And causing a substitute Pikachu to struggle itself to death for 1 of the 5)
And the final act of trolling, instead of allowing the opponent to faint. It killed itself with struggle in its final glorious act of trolling.
Shuckle Deity of Trolling N
Favorite weapon Spiked chain.
Domain Magic, Trickery, (Anything to do with trolling)
Portfolio Trolling, Spite.
Dang. What's the build on that shuckle? I need to add one to my Prankster Riolu team. :smallamused:
Ability Contrary
Attacks Shell smash, Rest, Toxic, Stealth rock.
Note This set either dominates, or is only good for the rocks and maybe a toxic.
Also the guy I just trolled put in on youtube, if you want to see.

:smallconfused: Calm Mind... Waterfall?
Quick question for the competitive players- is there any feasible way to counter Sigilyph, short of just getting the bulkiest dark type available?
Tyranitar, Jirachi with thunder, Starmie could work.
Really, anything that hits hard and fast. You need to kill it before it can set up.
I must say, it is extremely satisfying to be down to two pokemon and finally faint one of his five...
Then have the other four die to entry hazards when they come in. :smalltongue:
EDIT: It makes me sad when people instantly quit the moment I get my Prankster Riolu combo off. Especially when they have a priority move to cancel it...
Hey guys, I started playing on Smogon's simulator (linky) and most people have been utterly destroying my UU team, could you please tell me what's wrong with it? I was quite knowledgeable about commpetitive play back in DPP; but I have little idea on how to play in B/W.

The kid needs to learn a lot with regards to video creation... that is, he needs to re-dub the entire thing without all the vocal pauses and use a screen-capture program rather than a webcam to film the screen. The video's quality is painful, even without his prepubescent voice.
The "except more so" is the issue. Also, excepting niche cases, not too useful, and often limiting. Offensively, it's generally a loss (unless you really want a Special Dark move but don't get Dark Pulse), and defensively it matters less or is a detriment (i.e. Rock types with it suddenly worry about Waterfall a lot more because it hits their weak defense, if Chansey/Blissey got it, Aura Sphere or Focus Blast would utterly annihilate them), only rarely playing to their strengths (a Jellicent taking Wild Charge more easily, for example). If it also forced the opponent to observe the change (that is, it changed which attack or defense stat it uses) it might be more useful for taking Dragon moves, but would possibly be even more complicated on the defensive side than is advisable.
On another note, when you play through Pokéstar Studios, Rosa's physical similarity to her mom is more obvious... they have the same single eyelash in a roughly central location over each eye. Normally, Rosa's visor covers her eyelashes, but she takes off her visor while in costume. (It's also visible in the anime trailer, which is also remarkable for how you can match up the events with those in the game, though they have overleveled/evolved Pokémon for the most part in order to make it more badass)
Just beat the Champion with Chandelure solo, two more medals for me.
I swear that Focus Sash Haxxorus is the most annoying thing. I had to turn the difficulty down to normal so the AI would think it was more beneficial to waste a turn dragon dancing as opposed to killing me.
Out of curiosity, does anyone know if the music at 1:32 of the animated BW2 trailer is from somewhere?
I swear I've heard it before :smallconfused:
I feel like it's battle music from one of the games (perhaps remixed) but I'm not sure.
Near as I can place it, it's the gym battle theme from B/W1
Oh, ok. That makes sense :smallredface:
Been a while since I've fought gym leaders in that game.
Thanks :smallbiggrin:
Oh, I went and listened to all the battle themes just now and had to constantly go back and relisten.
Question, is it okay to catch a legendary with a master ball, and then use it in a nuzlocke run?
