SCV told me in his own words: Yes, roamers, including the Lati twins of RSE, suffer this problem. The Lati in Southern Island does not though. Source: 1. http://projectpokemon.org/forums/showpost.php?p=19897&postcount=132

The Gliscor everyone in our Shoddy Battle hates... Shogun, bob, and I have been using it for quite a while: [sprite]472[/sprite] Gliscor@Leftovers Jolly 244 HP/12 Atk/60 Def/72 SpDef/120 Speed - Earthquake - Taunt - Roost - Toxic 244 HP gives maximal leftovers recovery. Shogun originally went with 48 SpDef, but 72 SpDef seems better since it survives a 219 SpA Swampert's Ice Beam. With these EVs, defensive Zapdos will only 3HKO with Hidden Power Ice while Gliscor can easily outstall it with Toxic and Roost and Taunt it so that they won't Roost. 12 Attack EVs ensure Gliscor to OHKO Electivire, 120 with + nature hits 281 speed to outpace those gazillion stuff that put 279/280 speed and the remaining EVs went to defense... which conveniently hit 301 Defense, which is plenty. Yeah... you really shouldn't be using this against bulky waters anyhow, but at least cripple them with Toxic or something and switch to an appropriate counter. Bob currently uses the Gliscor in his main team though.

Recently I've started playing my Leaf Green again and just forgot how fun it was despite all its shortcomings. Here's my in-game team right after I finished the league, what's yours? [sprite]012[/sprite] Liberty the Butterfree (F) Level 52 Timid Compoundeyes HP 140 Attack 51 Defense 66 Sp.Atk 130 Sp.Def 97 Speed 124 - Psybeam - Silver Wind - Sleep Powder - Whirlwind Uses: - Useful Pokemon from the beginning - Very accurate Sleep Powder - Sleep Shuffling with Whirlwind = fun - Silver Wind (despite being physical in Gen III) can be useful SOMETIMES with that 10% chance of boosting all stats - Destroyed Agatha's team single-handedly [sprite]018[/sprite] Osprey the Pidgeot (F) Level 52 Jolly Keen Eye HP 166 Attack 123 Defense 84 Sp.Atk 79 Sp.Def 85 Speed 156 - Wing Attack - Quick Attack - Whirlwind - Featherdance Uses: - Yeah yeah. We all know even FEAROW is infinitely better than Pidgeot but I like Pidgeot so you competitive people stop staring at me for using one - Featherdance reduces the opponent's Attack Power by 2 levels, which is pretty cool. - Whirlwind for phazing... no clue why when Butterfree can make better use of it. I might just replace it with Fly. - Quick Attack finishes off weakened foes with STAB, Wing Attack for main STAB attack - Osprey was pretty good for the beginning and the middle game... until I reached Victory Road and all, I began to realize how Wing Attack failed to OHKO level 43 Machokes. But I'm still keeping Osprey anyways. [sprite]031[/sprite] Regina the Nidoqueen (F) Level 53 Naughty Poison Point HP 181 Attack 145 Defense 111 Sp.Atk 103 Sp.Def 88 Speed 96 - Body Slam - Double Kick - Thunderbolt - Surf Uses: - One of my main early game Pokemon which helped me secure some victories. Somewhat bulky (although Zapdos's Drill Peck did like 40% damage on her) and with an insane movepool - Double Kick over Superpower because Double Kick KOs those normal Pokes anyhow and it has more PP. Besides I don't like that attack/def drop either - Body Slam as main regular attack... 2-3HKOs most stuff not Rock/Steel in-game and has that chance of paralysis - Surf for those Rocks - Thunderbolt for Gyarados and other nuisances... although it failed to OHKO either - Poison Point sometimes helps... in fact quite a lot to ensure stuff gets KO'd before the opponent Full Restores or whatnot - Usefulness is slowly dwindling thanks to those mediocre stats but fairly reliable [sprite]038[/sprite] Kitsune the Ninetales (F) @ Charcoal Level 51 Timid Flash Fire HP 151 Attack 87 Defense 96 Sp.Atk 132 Sp.Def 112 Speed 159 - Flamethrower - Will-O-Wisp - Confuse Ray - Safeguard Uses: - A relatively new addition to the team... added right before I faced Erika... and then swept her with this. - Flamethrower is her main attack... but it runs out so easily seeing how it is the only attack she has. It's actually quite strong because it OHKOs-2HKOs almost anything that Kitsune has faced - Will-o-Wisp to burn physical stuff - Confuse Ray just for fun... it's not like she can do much else - Safeguard supports the team by preventing status from hitting - She's the annoying one in this team. Very quick/confuses/burns/can't get hit with status of your own/STAB Flamethrowers... yeah, painful for the AI. Quite useful actually but she really can't take much hits. Otherwise she's proven to be one of my most useful unit for the game. [sprite]071[/sprite] Vicky the Victreebel (F) @ Miracleseed Level 52 Naughty Chlorophyll HP 161 Attack 173 Defense 82 Sp.Atk 121 Sp.Def 72 Speed 94 - Razor Leaf - Growth - Acid - Sleep Powder Uses: - I got Vicky during the Nugget Bridge thing and made it my main grasser. Unfortunately she was also the HARDEST thing to train. 10 PP Vine Whip... from level 12... and Wrap of all useless moves. I had to wait until level 21 to evolve... and level 24 to learn Acid. Finally at level 42... 42 she decided to learn Razor Leaf. But still, Vicky was quite helpful - Sleep Powder... because... I said so... (everything wakes up in one turn when they face me >.>) - Acid... it OHKOs a lot of things for some reason, but I can't wait until I get Sludge Bomb. - Growth to boost up those Razor Leafs... (might get Swords Dance to complement Sludge Bomb) - Razor Leaf is my other STAB to take down waters and grounds (watches in horror as it misses) and even after + 2 Growths, it wouldn't OHKO Lapras while Lapras OHKOd Vicky with Ice Beam (fail) - Somewhat useful but at other times she fails... although Acid OHKOs most nooblings anyhow. That makes her useful in many ways. [sprite]009[/sprite] Turtle the Blastoise (F) @ Mystic Water Level 54 Calm Torrent HP 187 Attack 93 Defense 138 Sp.Atk 120 Sp.Def 133 Speed 107 - Protect - Rapid Spin - Ice Beam - Surf Uses: - My starter Pokemon. Yes people, I picked Blastoise, the least useful of the three. And yes, I use Pokemon that no one else likes to use. And yes, I picked Hitmonchan over Hitmonlee back at the Fighting Dojo! *inb4competitivebattlersflamemeforsuchdecision* - Protect for scouting what AI does - Rapid Spin... I don't even know why I'm keeping this move. It serves me no purpose in-game aside from slowly chipping Pokemon's HP away to help me capture it - Surf is my STAB move and does consistent damage - Ice Beam is my auxilary move for fliers/grassers/dragons/etc... - As sturdy as Turtle is, it sometimes doesn't do enough damage back to the opponents, although Turtle wins most of the time. There has been little to no problems with it. My SAV file is attached below... Leaf Green.sav

Doh! I forgot about U-turn... although, most Magnezones are scarfed and Dugtrios are VERY rare nowadays (not that it isn't a threat mind you). And Scizor doesn't exactly like Gyarados or Salamence either (mostly the former and the latter can survive its attacks and hit with a fire move). Also Banded Scizor locked into something like Bullet Punch can't U-turn out either =P And yeah, there are SO many Pokemon carrying random HP Fire (even Blissey carries Flamethrower) just because of Scizor. Aerial Ace/Air Slash/Brave Bird are rare moves actually (not saying they're not seen at all because of course Skarmory carries Brave Bird and Togekiss carries Air Slash, but Flying moves are not as common as Fire moves). I agree, Scizor is one of the biggest main threats in this metagame (they're omnipresent in fact and everyone fears it). His usage skyrocketed as soon as Bullet Punch was introduced though. I'm not saying one is better than the other or anything. Just saying that both shouldn't be compared in such a manner and each has some qualities that the other doesn't. I suppose in this metagame Scizor has more uses, but it shouldn't mean Heracross should be wiped out of existence. BTW my set can easily survive a banded Dugtrio's Aerial Ace after one Bulk Up and OHKO back with Megahorn (hopefully it won't miss... and ignore critical hits that just always gang up on me >.>)

(Wraith89 vs SuperSpecialAwesome) Shoddy Warstory "Scizor is the new Heracross." ~ Greencat Hmm, really? This warstory should show you how the underappreciated bug can do you good. I've been experimenting with Heracross quite a lot lately. It is an unexpected surprise for the most part. Rules: Evasion Clause, Extended Game, Freeze Clause, OHKO Clause, Sleep Clause Pokemon: (In order of appearance) Wraith89 SuperSpecialAwesome

Post 1000 reached. I will close this as Narwhal has requested. Expect its new reincarnation to appear anytime soon. EDIT: I closed the new one atm and re-opened this one. Guested will explain why.

You just bumped a really old thread. It wants to rest in peace If you followed that link, it does say "USA PLATINUM AR CODES" so it will NOT work for DP. Need USA Diamond/Pearl codes? Look here. I don't know if there is a rule against necroposting, but this topic shouldn't be raised up anyhow. So I'll just close this.

^ win SilentFox's red devildog request...

Ray's custom Darkrai... the Dark Ball thingy is made by Firarae (it was a Shadow Ball picture from a Mewtwo sprite sheet)

Thanks, but they're merely recolors and almost anyone can do that bob's and SilentFox's requests for an evil Gardevoir... although, I think I should actually change their aesthetics instead of just recoloring. Here is the color concept then:

@ Varna: You can use any of these sprites for your Shoddy purposes or whatnot. @ Champloo: Here... if this is what you wanted...

So you were always scared of Scizor, the Crimson Flash? Or did you hate to be knocked out by the Green Marauder Scyther in UU? Well, now be prepared to be befuddled by... Scizor-colored Scyther and Scyther-colored Scizor! Fun huh?

I know, but those that you have mentioned are relatively safe to get in and push the report button. Those that I have just mentioned are NOT safe to go in... and it fills the reported post section with gruesome images too.

Take note members: Recently, there has been an influx of inappropriate topics created by certain bots with very nasty and vulgar content in it. Not only has it been disturbing me because I do the clean up job but I'll bet those who have seen it were disturbed too. So whenever you see topics with names like (pardon my French), "How a Penis Gets an Erection" or "How to Maximize your Ejaculation Experience" posted in strange locations, PLEASE DO NOT CLICK ON THEM!!!. Rather, please report them to a mod/admin, which means either me or anyone else with Blue, Teal, or Red names by sending them a visitor message or a private message. Anyhow, thank you for your time and I apologize to anyone who had to take the luxury of viewing such topics.

SilentFox's request for an Aqua-White Chansey nurse...

Actually, Water mono can work too, seeing how some have typings that negate Grass or Electric weaknesses (not to mention Rain teams have a lot of waters in it and Water attacks hit a lot of types for neutral damage)... Dragon monos are suicide. But so far Steel is the most viable mono here. btw memjee what's with your Blissey's EVs? o_O Also, 126 isn't divisible by 4, 128 is.

I saw Studpuff run a similar set... IIRC I even have that whole battle warstoried.

Ok here is a request from Memjee... for a differently colored Heracross. I love both purple and blue Heracross though... but I think he'd love this Golden Fighting Beetle! Bonus: added a golden Scizor too...
