    ^---- I love that. "I'm gonna ride this plane out of your life again I wish that I could stay, but you argue More than this I wish, you could've seen my face In backseats staring out, the window "I'll do anything for you Kill anyone for you So leave yourself intact 'Cause I will be coming back In a phrase to cut these lips I love you" ~ Wake Up - Coheed & Cambria

    Nah, it seems to make sense. The cryptic wording (not so much the meaning) throws me a lot, though. "Metaphor for a missing moment. Pull me in to your perfect circle. One womb, One shame, One resolve. Liberate this will, To release us all. Gotta cut away, clear away Snip away and sever this umbilical residue, Keeping me from killing you. And from pulling you down with me here, I can almost hear you scream." ~ Orestes - A Perfect Circle

  5. Banned for changing what was quite clearly an interesting and heavily engrossing subject. You bad, bad person.
  6. Welcome to the site, Drohn. We're all trying to get our heads around Black and White at the moment too, so you're not alone there. I know a bit about how it has effected competitive play, but I've not been a huge fan thus far, so there's probably better/ less biased folk to speak to on that front . Anyway, hope to see you around.
  7. Personally I would run a Niave nature and focus more on the special attack as you're running 3 special attack moves and 1 physical, (I might even go as far as to make it a sub+3 with Sub/Grass knot/Hidden Power Ice(/Focus Punch)/Thunder bolt. With focus punch I'd say something like 60 - 80 Atk EVs, 252 speed and the rest in special attack; same goes for volt tackle too. But yeh, Niave nature first and for most. Oh, and unless you're in the rain, don't run Thunder. Mind you, what I suggest is merely the standard, and in this case I reckon it would work better than your unique set.
  8. Well that's easy .. random calculations. Read articles aswell. 252/252/4 is lazy, I'll agree, because certainly there's no call, a lot of the time, for maxed speed. For instance, if you are only worried about base 110 speeds, and you're running a 130 speed Pokémon, then you don't need to max the speed stat. Similarly, if you can get an OHKO and foes X/Y/Z with only 200 investment, then run that instead. A lot of it is merely about knowing what numbers mean what. 404 HP = great for 101 health subs, so a sub abuser might want to focus on getting to 404 HP 417 HP = optimum leftover recovery and minimum SR damage 320 Speed = Outpacing neutral 110s and postive 95s And etcetera
  9. EV spreads, my friend, are for you to make to tailor your Pokémon to perform exactly how you want it to. You can run standard EV sets predetermined by Smogon, and if that's how you want it to work then by all means do it. However, for the best use of EVs it is worth making your own, or (atleast) using the predetermined EVs as a template and working from there. Smogon also have a damage calculator you can use to determine how you want your EVs too, however that's more "random Calculations" In fact I reccomend you make more random calculations, it'll pay off in the long run. I hope that answers your question?

    Quotes Game

    "For man had succeeded in destroying the world, but war. War never changes. Since the dawn of human kind, when our ancestors first discovered the killing power of rock and bone, blood has been spilled in the name of everything, from God to justice to simple, psychotic rage." ~ In game narration of "Fallout 3"

    "The Prise. Burdened eternally with the responsibility of guarding the Keywork. In their creation God saved them these words: 'If man should decide to dabble in my affairs, then Guardians must intervene. But, should I come forth to change the face of man with you there to challenge me... Then I shall return with all the stars to destroy all I have made. Whether man or I present that danger will not be told in the coming.'" ~ God's message to the Prise, from the comic "The Amory Wars"
  12. You are banned for believing that Kyurem can be cared about. The poor guy got screwed.

  15. Follow the link in my signature and download Pokégen. So long as you are able to extract your.PKM file all should be well. Steps: 1- Download Pokegen and open it up. 2- Load your save file via the "file" tab. 3- Load the .PKM file via the "file" tab. 4- Right click on an empty space in your box and select "set" 5- Save your adjustments, again through file. This method won't make it appear as caught, however. For it to appear as caught, make a random Stunky, put it in an egg, hatch the egg, and then release the hatched stunky. I hope that somewhat helps.

    Hey y'all! I figured I'd start a new game. I guess this is really a thread for sharing your favourite pieces of work The game's as simple as you can get, really. All you have to do is post a quote that links to the previous post via one of the words used (Don't use crappy links such as "the, and, a, I" etcetera), or by making a link with name. So, you can post from the same author as the previous poster if you'd like, or from the same Movie. Again, it has to be a proper word. For example "The Hills Have Eyes", you can quote "Hills" and "Eyes". The post can be as long or short as you like, a line from a song, to a poem to a paragraph from a speech, hell a cool quote from a film/TV show works too. To show where the link is made put bold tags around the chosen word. Similarly, cite where the quote's from so if someone's interested they can go and look for more work by that person. Refrain from swearing. It's not a thread for posting which song has the highest curse count. On that note, thought provoking posts are cool ->:cool:, vulgar posts are teh failz0r -> :mad: Example: So, without Further Ado; Free will. It’s like butterfly wings: once touched, they never get off the ground. ~ John Milton, from the Film "The Devils Advocate"
  18. Play fallout 1-2 ... It was all turn based before Fallout 3 .
  19. Welcome to the site, Talha. Being an older player you might be interested in the competitive side of things. We play competitively here and there should always be at least one of us in there, so feel free to stop by. See you soon.

    Hi

    Hi Flippyfeet, Welcome to the site. Feel free to go check out the ROM editing section. And while you're at it follow the link in my signature for an alternative to Pokesav. Enjoy your stay, see you around.
  21. You could do what riolu says, or you could indeed take a peek at smogon to see what they say. But honestly in game it really doesn't matter a whole lot, and with some of the movesets you're running the EVs won't help a lot anyway. EVs do play a huge factor in the competitive scene for sure, but just do what you want in-game my friend . If you're thinking about taking the team to WiFi, then you're really going to want to re-evalute the movesets you've chosen, as spamming three attacks of the same type is just too easily walled. You want to be thinking about A) hitting as many types of pokemon as possible B) directly hurting the pokemon's counters C) a move that can raise the effectiveness of the pokemon you're using. The exact same applie to EVs. Can you A) out speed notable threats? B) Can you live an attack from a counter? C) is the chosen EV spread the most effective it could have for what YOU want it to do.
  22. Hi I'm... ... refusing to type like that. Welcome to the site.
