  1. Poll over. I'm surprised how Blaziken has more fans than Infernape o_O New weekly poll here: http://projectpokemon.org/forums/showthread.php?t=3445
  2. Two plant Pokemon of the old times... quite obscure nowadays because everyone is busy staring at the new more powerful Grass Pokes... [sprite]071[/sprite] [shinysprite]071[/shinysprite] VICTREEBEL GRASS/POISON HP: 80 Atk: 105 Def: 65 SpA: 100 SpDef: 60 Spe: 70 BST: 480 Advantages: - Has good attack power for both sides of the spectrum - Can boost both its physical and special attack in some form - Chlorophyll boosts its speed to insane levels - Decent speed for a grasser - Learns a variety of status moves to disable its foes - Learns Sleep Powder earlier than other grassers - Has some powerful physical and special attack on its side - Can learn Leaf Storm and Leaf Blade, and can be useful in a mixed set Disadvantages: - It is very frail and cannot survive Moltres's Fire Blast like it used to back in RBY when its special was 100 - Its movepool is rather lacking and can only resort to Solarbeam/Sludge Bomb/Leaf Blade/Return/Sucker Punch for its attacks (and it doesn't get Gunk Shot or even Poison Jab while other random stuff get it) - Growth is too slow for pumping up Special attacks - Stays with Vine Whip for the first few levels of it being Bellsprout for its STAB attack... and has to wait until it becomes a Weepinbell until it learns Acid... and learns Razor Leaf SO late - Outclassed by a few others like Leafeon and Tangrowth for physical sweeping and Vileplume in special sweeping (it has the defenses to actually set up) - Rather forgotten due to the other grassers out there [sprite]045[/sprite] [shinysprite]045[/shinysprite] VILEPLUME GRASS/POISON HP: 75 Atk: 80 Def: 85 SpA: 100 SpDef: 90 Spe: 50 BST: 480 Advantages: - Sturdier than its counterpart - Can utilize the Sunnybeam set more effectively due to its bulk - Chlorophyll can help it outspeed things with the sun - Is able to use status moves to disable its opponents - Can act as a cleric with Aromatherapy Disadvantages: - Slower than Victreebel and isn't geared to be a sweeper - Has a limited movepool - Does not have good physical moves to use unlike its counterpart and is therefore relegated to a few roles - Outclassed by other good grassers such as Celebi - Absorb is its first move... and it doesn't learn much else until it becomes a Gloom - It learns Sleep Powder later than Bellsprout, but that's almost a nonissue - Requires an event to get Leech Seed on it - Rather obscure and people forgot about it Vote which one you like and give a reason why. I like both, honestly, to tell you the truth, but since I always start off partial... I'll pick Victreebel because of old nostalgia sake I used one in my Blue team... and in Leaf Green I used one with Swords Dance + Sludge Bomb back when Sludge Bomb was physical.

  15. It didn't have Occa, but the point was to show you that if Scizor would survive a Sacred Fire it needs to run a positive defense set with max HP and Def with Occa, which no Scizor runs. It is VERY overspecialized as I put it before... Sure ubers has rain... but that's still a 2HKO and 50% chance to burn (47.5% if you factor in Sacred Fire's 95% accuracy). The OP said this was without rain btw... so his claims may have been spurious... there's no way it'll survive an Adamant Ho-oh's Sacred Fire, let alone CB'd (mine wasn't even CB'd). And Ho-oh resists most if not all of Scizor's moves, so it won't really matter. At any rate, Ho-oh is still too strong for OU, even with Stealth Rocks and all. Very bulky, powerful on both sides of the spectrum, and has an instant recovery move... this thing shouldn't be in OU. Tyranitar switch-ins don't like being burned either... nothing likes to risk being burned. Sure there's Guts Heracross, but that thing's weak to Fire so... that's not going to help. There's Fire pokes who are immune to burn... but Infernape is frail (it can Stone Edge but you might accidentally switch in to an EQ) and Heatran, who is immune to Sacred Fire, still can't do anything back while Ho-oh can easily Earthquake it. Either way, it's too powerful for OU, and if there was a OU team with Ho-oh, I'm sure it'll have spinners.

  20. Impish is a + def nature too... and it lowers SpA which Scior doesn't care for... And no one uses 0 Atk Modest if they're planning on using Sacred Fire (let alone Choice Banded). Also, that's overspecialized... VERY overspecialized. bob and I ran a test... Occa Berry 252 HP/252 Def Impish survives... but with only 2%... or sometimes they die from burn... so it doesn't matter.
  21. We just tested it. Even with 252 HP/252 Def Impish nature... that Scizor won't survive a Sacred Fire... but how about with Occa Berry? Hmm... ... but that's WAY too overspecialized and isn't worth doing.
  22. "CB Adamant natured Ho-oh. Surprisingly my bulky CB scizor survived a Sacred Fire" Er... really? Anyways, from all that "testing" phase, that team was obviously anti-Ho-oh material. Even if it is 4x weak to Stealth Rocks, that base 154 Special Defense is still a bit too bulky on the special side, don't you think? Let's see, we have a 50% chance of burning from Sacred Fire with STAB (coming off from a 130 Attack mind you)... which helps with his physical defense... and Roost/Recover increases its survivability. idk... I don't think it belongs in OU.
