I used to do so much recoloring... =| I haven't done any in a long time though. Sad. I might go back into all my spriting stuff =P

Ubers wasn't created to be a metagame, it was created to be a banlist for OU.

Wynaut, while for the most part useless, has two incredibly useful aspects.

1. Wynaut can come in on any Choiced pokemon and kill it.

2. Its ability.

Wynaut's ability may seem only useful for mirror coat / counter, but that isn't the case. Wynaut's ability is the singular best switching utility in the game. You can use Wynaut to get a free switch in on any pokemon because you force the opponent's pokemon to stay in. This can be useful at any level.

Wynaut probably wouldn't break the metagame, and it would be interesting to test, but I think it should stay in Ubers.

Actually, you're team does need a lategame sweeper. I suggested Dragonite because he isn't OU trash, and because he is quite powerful and useful, with an excellent movepool.

You could use a powerful dragon STAB as well.

Smogon is suspecting it, and I'm curious for the arguments their UU team puts up, as its their largest suspect group ever.

Actually, this team looks like it could work against many teams. But not against the basic OU trash teams that you hate so much.

Anyway, most of it looks fine, but I'm not sure what Swampert is doing. I would switch him out for a lategame sweeper, preferably special, since while he does provide insurance for Metagross and Blissey, Dugtrio will massacre both. Just sayin'. As an option for switching him out, not much doesn't qualify as OU trash. Alakazam is rarely used and unbelievably powerful, Jolteon goes with him. Neither of them are in the top 20 used, with Alakazam being the 50th. Dragonite is also a good option as a mini-salamence, with him being fairly far down the list as well.

Make sure you know your response for every one of the top leads with your Dugtrio.

Simple, but interesting.

8/10

I would reccomend 6 pokemon, level 100, 1v1, Sleep Clause, Freeze Clause, OHKO Clause, and Evasion Clause, with the Ubers as a banlist. The VGC world championship has idiotic rules.

Nah, most tournaments allow Garchomp. In that case, a Salamence will work well in its place.

Ummm...How do I get it?

Is this confirmed or not yet?

It's the main reason I've been putting off patching my game. (Even though patching would be WORLDS nicer than losing progress for not saving every 2 minutes.)

Argh I can't stand it when dumbasses like Beff make new users have doubts.

The patch does absolutely NOTHING to the save file. Everything is in the exact same location. And thats for either the English patch or the freeze one. HGSS Pokesav can be used on any patched HGSS ROM.

Final word, no more questions.

For all out attacking power, little else will beat a Garchomp, a Metagross, and a Latias. The sheer power offered by this trio is astounding. Metagross can run an easy Choice Band set, or a LO set, or a Scarf set... or an Agility set too. Garchomp can and should run the old standard Yachechomp. Latias can do fantastically with LO, Specs, Scarf, CM, or whatever you choose to run.

Thats pretty cool, but a well played UU team would have destroyed you. Anyway, very nice warstory.

So then what's the popular verdict on which to choose? Or perhaps I should download both of them?

Well, Pokesav is tried and true, and has a more complicated interface that can be confusing. PPSE is rather new, and still in development, although you can expect far more updates from it.

You should get both, as they're free, and use the one you like best. However, for HGSS support, PPSE is going to support it fully much sooner then Pokesav will.

They are 'competitors' in that they serve a similar purpose and are made by different people; however theres no real competition between them. They are different programs that do extremely similar things, with a different interface.

Pokesav HGSS is out, PPSE is far into development; there will be a solid HGSS save editing program within two weeks, if not sooner.

Don't use the save file that it generates, instead use the "Export ARDS Code" function and copy and paste the codes it generates into a Cheat Code Editor such as r4cce. If you are not playing a clean Japanese version of the game using the save file Pokesav generates will make your save file corrupt because the version of your game is patched and not a clean copy!

Stop spreading your uninformed guesswork. It wont corrupt the save. I've tested that and tons of people are using patched versions without a problem. The reason for this is that unless the patch changes some core game data, it won't affect the save at all. As such, no one needs to worry about that.

You have to know that, being a patched version or not, the save file does not get affected, so deal with it

That very much depends on how patched the game is; however with the generic anti-piracy and english patches, the save file will be identical to a clean game. As such, thats a pointless thing to do.

Work the opposite way : Go to Pokesav and generate a random PID with shiney box ticked for your pokemon, then go to IVPID.exe and choose option 5 : Get the IV for a given PID.

Paste your PID and generate IVs, if you don't like the IV set, change the PID and redo the whole process.

This is a pretty smart way to do it. Once you've found a good IV set, change the IVs of the pokemon in Pokesav and there you go, a legit shiny.

Once the HG/SS changes are added to shoddy a huge amount of Pokemon will receive gravity. Pokemon like Alakazam and Metagross. I believe once these changes are added the use of gravity will go way up.

Excellent! I would definitely recommend Metagross then. Still, highly doubt there will be any gravity teams.

Where do you get a firestone and is there gonna be a pokesav for HGSS?

You can most likely purchase a Fire Stone from the Goldenrod Dept. Store.

COM, the creator of Pokesav, has been missing for some time now and has failed to update Pokesav Platinum. As such, there is no reason to believe that a version of Pokesav for HeartGold and SoulSilver will be created. However, Jiggy-Ninja and the developers of the Project Pokemon Save Editor (PPSE) are working hard on getting a HGSS version out.

The best wall in the game is undoubtedly Lugia, with fine speed, incredible defenses, and good typing. He learns Roost, Whirlwind, Toxic, Calm Mind, and Trick, allowing it to run virtually any wall set you can think of.

While Arceus can work as a wall, its stupid. Arceus has base 120 speed and dual base 120 attacking stats, along with an immense movepool and the ability to get any STAB in the game, and you're telling me it should run a wall?

Be that as it may, this clause is extremely simplistic to implement and SCV already told me personally it was a good idea.

Nice rendering. I assume you used the pen tool? It works wonders.

Actually, Enkidu did a pretty convincing argument for Gyarados. Still, I think we should leave him in, because he doesn't have that feel of a powerhouse that comes whenever a Salamence comes in.

In any case, I'm about to ask SCV about putting this in. Any last suggestions?
