It's a legit wondercard. Let's drop the subject now.

Gamestop has already received the distribution carts since the Pichu and Gamestop events are almost back-to-back.

THIS IS NOT HELP ME CHEAT ON MY GAME THREAD. This is discussion about the Pichu event and it's distribution. Any further discussion about AR codes, cheating, Pokesav, etc... will be infracted.

I was getting bored of the 5-6 OU teams I was using, and have no idea what is even being tested on Suspect, so I decided to venture into UU. Pokemon are in bold and the original set follows. Any changes made by users will be shown in red font. And I have as much knowledge of UU as I do Suspect, I imagine it could be improved by quite a bit: Ambipom (M) @ Silk Scarf Ability: Technician EVs: 6 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Fake Out - Knock Off - Taunt - U-turn I couldn't really find a good suicide lead for Stealth Rocks, so I decided to use the standard Ambipom set. I felt Focus Sash wasn't going to be too helpful in surviving much, and Silk Scarf powers up STAB Fake Out. I don't think Ambipom will be living through too much, so I opted for Knock Off to get rid of early game items. U-Turn to scout out if Ambipom gets the chance. Torterra (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Overgrow EVs: 252 HP/6 Atk/252 Def Impish nature (+Def, -SAtk) - Substitute - Leech Seed - Wood Hammer - Earthquake Only reason I'm using this is because I'm familiar with the set and the overall strategy. Sometimes it performs well and sometimes it's dead weight. I think the key is to eliminate Scarf users and other fast Pokes before bringing it out. I'm also thinking it really doesn't need BOTH of it's STAB moves. A Stone Edge would help greatly with coverage. Or I could ditch Leech Seed for Synthesis. How common is Sand Stream in UU? Is Sand Storm the move ever used, since only one Pokemon can summon Sand Stream? That all being sand, he provides a handy rock resist. I'd also like to try to fit in a Rapid Spinner somewhere, but I have no experience with them in UU outside of Claydol, which I run on two of my sand storm teams. Altaria (M) @ Life Orb Ability: Natural Cure EVs: 252 Atk/252 Spd Naive nature (+Spd, -SDef) - Dragon Dance - Outrage - Fire Blast - Earthquake I'm ready to ditch this thing. Give me something else that can be a set-up sweeper. I saw a Swords Dance Venasaur a while ago. And from how many people talk, Venasaur is THE Pokemon to use and the one you need to check for. Feraligatr (M) @ Choice Band Ability: Torrent EVs: 128 HP/252 Atk/128 Def Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Aqua Jet - Superpower - Crunch - Body Slam My logic behind this was it's speed isn't all that great, but it's got decent bulk and a great move pool. I tried a Swords Dance set to abuse Aqua Jet, but I never really got it down so I can always get 1-2 SDs in. This set has worked out pretty well, though I'm tempted to ditch Aqua Jet. Base 40 power doesn't cut it, even with STAB. Body Slam has been handy for hax. Clefable (M) @ Flame Orb Ability: Magic Guard EVs: 252 HP/58 Def/200 SDef Impish nature (+Def, -SAtk) - Stealth Rock - Trick - Wish - Reflect/Light Screen What an amazing and ridiculous Pokemon. I like to set up Stealth Rock first so Clefable can be burned. This acts as a check on status. I then find someone with a beneficial item, though really anything will do. I'm really not finding too many special attacks to soak up in UU, so I'm considering re-investing the EVs into physical defense. Milotic (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Marvel Scale EVs: 252 HP/128 Def/128 SDef Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Rest - Sleep Talk - Toxic - Surf Really on the team to soak up hits. Isn't performing too well. Probably cause rest-talk isn't my style. Is Milotic useful in UU? How can I make it work? Icy Wind was chosen over Ice Beam to lower speed of opponent's, but it's not at all useful. I'm sticking Toxic on there instead in the mean time until ya'll can help with the set. What I like to do is Fake Out+Taunt with Ambipom. If it's still alive, Knock Off. And if it's still alive after that, U-Turn to Clefable so it gets burned right away and can set up Stealth Rock. I think I can ditch Milotic for a Rapid Spinner, but what? Also, I haven't encountered many Porygon-Z in UU. Is it something to watch out for? Maybe go with a DD-set for Feraligatr and Specs for Porygon-Z? FAKE EDIT: Currently testing out Swords Dance Venusaur replacing Torterra, and Choice Band Hitmontop replacing Milotic. Original thread from SPPF: link

So why post on a forum that has no affiliation with the programer of OWEDS? Go send him a message on Youtube.

You do know I made that post like, over a year ago, right? At the time, they had re-vamped the PS3 to have no backwards capability. Maybe it's just me, but if you need to re-vamp and re-release the console several times over the course of 1-2 years, maybe they could've held off on the release date. Because good is subjective. I can't define what's good for you because I don't know. What I can say, though, is that shovelware games for video game consoles have been coming out for decades. And for some reason, the Internet erupts in a rage over the Wii's, but don't dare criticize the shovelware on the SNES, NES, Sega Master, Sega Genesis, PS1, PS2, or the 360 or PSP, etc... And moreso, very few, if any one, is going to like anything even close to the majority of games released on any one console. Does this make a system bad? No. It just means you only like X amount of games. I love the 64. But I only own like 6 N64 games. It is not a bad system just because I only own 6 out of hundreds or thousands. Shovelware isn't , by definition, a "bad game". It's usually defined as a game that's thinly veiled as an advertisement for some franchise. Many movie-based games fall into this category, as well as Barbie games and stuff like that. These are not the same as a bad game, like, I don't know, Superman 64 was. And as for games being "hard to beat", there's a difference between challenging and frustrating. Maximum Carnage was frustrating. Zelda games though are usually considered challenging, but enjoyable, not frustrating.

Game discussion rules are not for help with Pokesav or flash carts.

I don't know what the admins want, but I'm betting they don't want this discussion in the public forum. Go to the botom of the main page of the forums, click on Forum Leaders, and PM an administrator. SCV is the guy I always go to, for what it's worth.

Patience is a virtue. Either do that, or feel free to gather events on your own, register a domain name, pay for a server, etc...

Nitpicking, but there are code sharing topics already stickied in RAM Editing. You can probably find it there without having to make a new thread. By definition, Pokemon from codes aren't legit. Feel free to put in a request in Pokemon Request. Make sure to specify anything that the Pokemon needs to be distinguished as such.

You probably have to use the proper language version of Pokesav. There are French and Spanish versions that I know of. I used to have them in a Pokesav pack I downloaded back when this place was still pokesav.org

I've got a slight variation on the anti-lead Infernape: Infernape w/ Focus Sash Jolly Blaze 252 atk/252 speed/6 HP - Stealth Rock - Close Combat - Flare Blitz - Encore/Fake Out/Taunt SR to set up as quickly as possible. Close Combat helps you deal with some other threats + a good STAB. Flare Blitz is key to this set's success. If you get the chance to attack with your Sash activated, then BLAZE will also be activated. And because you only have ONE HP left, who cares about the recoil? The last slot is a bit tricky. Encore lets other leads set up, but you can force them to switch. Fake Out=duh Taunt=stops set up.

Yeah, no, that doesn't hold any water at all. Pokemon have been designed after non-animals since the beginning. The first Pokemon in the dex, the Bulbasaur line, is based on a plant. The Nirdoan line are based on a mishmash of animals. Clefairy line is based off of fairies and pixies. And because I don't have all day, Voltorb and Electrode are designed to look like a Pokeball. Pokemon have always had a variety of influences for the individual designs. Anyone who thinks Gen I/II has more "animal-like" creatures than Gen III/IV have clearly ignored the dozens of non-animal based Pokemon found in the first two gens. I kinda feel like I sparked a discussion. If anyone wants to discuss this further, take it to Pokemon Franchise. Thanks.

Yes, maybe they are. If you ignored the hundreds of Pokemon they release every generation, then your post might have some credibility.

1 would be a huge hassle and the only difference between Bidoof on Route X and Bidoof on Route Y is...well, the route. Trainer Owned Pokemon aren't identified as such because, when catching them through the cheat, they come out with your OT/ID. Also, pointless.

Try again. Read the sticky threads please.

VCG don't really ban on "power" so much as availability.

Wow, this is a pointless topic.

Nothing illegal about it. Please PM me of the user who's advertising on your forum.

This isn't for cheat codes. Check RAM Editing. And search before asking for codes.

This thread is NOT for random hatched Pokemons. This is for the Pokemon you encounter in the game in unique ways. The in-game trades, the "gift" Pokemon you get along the way, or encountered in unusual ways in the wild (legends, Snorlax in FR/LG, Sudowoodo in Emerald, etc...).

SPPF does not have a "no entry hazards" clause. Their Wi-Fi Battle forum follows Shoddy standard rules to a T EXCEPT they also list "no hax items" as standard rules as well. ALL other clauses they list are under "NOT STANDARD" , which is basically a nice way of saying "these are mostly pretty dumb, but people still battle with them." We're holding off on making a Shoddy rule to use until Shoddy 2 comes out, last I checked.

Don't take offense, but where did these all come from? Are they all from this thread, or are these something you gathered together?

Search before posting. If you had bothered to read the Announcement that appears on the top of every forum, they're down.

Your games are probably bootlegs. Don't buy from online retailers. Always buy from brick and mortar, because then you'll at least have a return policy. Anyways, I'm closing this. If you have further questions, learn how to type and also know that using a million smilies isn't going to get you an answer faster.
