Took me 4-5month to get a decent h.a corphish , i literrally mean decent , and i have to keep farming it to get one with at least 26ivs speed ,tbh i have probably seen more than 200-300 of them , don't gimme the bs story of other mmo are easier to grind , PRO is about luck, like pure luck , that"'s all .

1: Not that hard , if people would put their mouse pointer lower than the OU tier in SD , thing might change, but yeah why would they do that when ttar/t-flame/weavile/chomp/nite are brainless to use and totally mainstream/overhyped (Also dunno if people know about the TM Called Taunt) . Same for special walls , eviolite not working , choice goes to blissey , for ppl needing a win con or something with some offensif capibillity they goes for snorlax because it's brainless to use as well . There actually few special wall in the game wich are dealing with some physical mon the others two are struggling with (specially machamp) Isn't your argument answering why its making sense ? Raptor doesn't carry a priority moove hitting harder than arceus's ES ,it doesn't pressure offensiv team as talon does w/o a scarf ,it doesn't get burned , i'll give you a secret there , mon aren't banned if and only if they doesn't carry counter play to them , you'r so much in the wrong right there (yeah the answer is because it's too much toxic/pressuring the meta/or the counter play is actually very small) , Everything is checked by something by diffrents ways ,The best answer to it so far i have found in pro is putting enough pressure to keep sr up, and E.S it (without having to run slowbro/hippo , yeah ttar and donphan arn't going to win the hit&back war ) Yeah , you are forced to run something wich stomacks his stabb mooves , +2 acro/bb or either flareblitz will 6-0everything lacking that kind of mon , and also why does it needs coverage when he got acces to two of best stabbed moove in the whole game ,for information Fire&Fly being really goood offensif pair , only rocks is resisting the combination of two (not going to mention heatran and rotom-w ..) ,you don't need coverage when you are hitting with 110-120bp neutral moove+stabb(and sharpbeak smtimes) (yeah ima say smthing for all thoose player hiddenpower fire-ing my meta with their zone is bs, t-bolt deals more , free advice ) ,Yes it's easily checked , but definitly not easy to actually punish (same statment as hydreigon in actual UU metagame ,click u-turn or either d-metor if ennemy team isn't running a fairy) , You can't rk it , aka no scarf (for exemple scarf zone easily deal with it since 80-90% of t-flame running around are adamant),you can't punish it from switching aka no pursuit ,It's pressuring offensif oriented team by just clicking bb , best Rk mon of the whole PRO game , 6-0ing with ease once you get ride of his counter (wich are few) , Yeah goth is definitly more toxic than that (jk of course if that wasn't obv) ,it's doing his job and his only one job, punishing heavy bad stall (some smart player arn't running psychock+t-bolt, yeah because every stall team on the ladder arn't trash as everythign else runned so far ,about 95% of the ladder tho)So yeah , Tflame+goth on the same team is bs , i can give you that .

I can't quotes everyone's comments about Shadow Tag, because its just too much, you can search it on search bar about Shadow Tag and Gothitelle being banned, i found more than 100 post about that. You can check that here: https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/search.php?keywords=shadow+tag&t=33054&sf=msgonly and https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/search.php?keywords=shadow+tag&t=34240&sf=msgonly. Hopefully all quotes above is enough to make Shadow Tag banned from Ladder PvP. In my opinion, Shadow Tag should be banned, its not all about how many counters or weakness that this Pokemon has, because we battle not only using 1 vs 1 Pokemon, we battle with 6 vs 6 Pokemon, so this Pokemon weakness can be covered with other Pokemon, so yeah, dont talk about counters because every Pokemon has their own weakness. I will sum up in here why Shadow Tag should be banned because: 1. This game lack of team preview. We don't have team preview which is making this Pokemon being unpredictable and yes this can give this Pokemon free win almost againts all spatck/ balance/ stall Pokemon. 2. Since shadow tag prevent you from switching, well.. you cannot counter it and it demolish stall teams by getting +6 with Calm mind and before ripping the team apart. 3. We don't have complete items, abilities, movesets also Pokemon yet. E.g. pursuit/ life orb/ etc, so hard to one-KO this Pokemon. 4. Popular Pokemon Battle Simulator, Showdown, has their reason to ban this Pokemon, you can check it here: https://www.smogon.com/articles/ou-suspect-sableye-shadow-tag. 5. Its just not fun spamming calm mind and rest, repeat it over and over again to buff and other side cant do anything about this, with more than 10-20 turns to set this buff. 6. PvP become not competitive anymore because we allowed this broken ability in ladder 7. Its not about banning Shadow Tag can change the meta of the game or systems or other reason, hopefully ladder tier is coming soon, so everyone who already has this Pokemon not becoming useless because they still can use this Pokemon in Uber tier. Anyways, this is just my opinion and reason about this ability. I'm sorry if i said something wrong, just wanna make PvP environment become competitive. Thank you ^^ GW deserves a ban as much as goth btw , just saying .(this thing is pressuring pro meta a wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy more than goth, since the meta is in this state kind of because of it) , and i don't have to point out ratio of talonflamme/goth you can actually see in ranked laddering . It's actually easier to whine about a "broken" abillity wich is kind of easy to understand and "lacking" counterplay because it's hiddering a playstyle on his own (well a playstyle really badly played in pro ) than reading beetwin lines and how & why the meta is in this state (yeah preview, lacking item, moove/talent blabla ). Yeah trust me or not, ban GW and you'r going to see a way less of bad stall/semi stall running around . So far if you take the top 25 ladderboard (don't focus on it, its actually meaningless , not representative at all from my pov )You either face balanced(there no bulky-o in pro ,and balanced is far superior with the lack of incredible powerhouse mega are)or h.o with talon being runned in almost every team or either stall/semi stall ;(yeah for semi stall 5tank/wall with a talon ,how weird it is :Shy: ) Let's explain that with some arrows , offense team <Talonflamme<bulky water/ground,(ttar sin't really checking it in pro aka not coded pursuit)<atq.spe user<BLISSEY <Goth tried my best to explain that to 20 I.Q ppl

That's why hazard stacking was so perworfull during BW meta , Roserade and raikou was a god core to punish all thoose avaible spinner

Re: WTS Extreme Epic H.A Solipede <r>4 <E>:Proud:</E></r>

what should be fixed asap is people abusing the fact of suiciding their weather inducer into hazards (stealth rock or even spikes) to bring rain or either sand to win the game when it fking shouldn't , and they know that fact verywell .

Im selling that : b:o None , Insta 1M

Well , what you suggested is making sense if the amount of pvp players was a way higher, the thing is ,depending of your elo (points) or the time of the day you'r playing , (gmt , late in the night, early in the morning, or even in fullday ) finding opponent is hard , like really hard unless your amount of points is kinda low or decent . Yeah it's painfull for a 0-200pointer to face a high ranked guy twice in a row or a bit delayed ,wich one was probably waiting for over ten minutes (ain't joking, this is actually true ) but it's how an elosystem works ,if you'r finding atop 25guy when you just started is mean af,but this one was probably waiting to find someone for a ton of time (yeah sometimes it just instapoping idk why ) and it's so much punitive for the high elo guy anyway than the lower one wanting to save some kind of pride or not being pissed to just loose twice sraigth(i'll not speak about hax chance , not the subjet here ) , it takes me 10minutes to find a 0-100points guy , i'm going to win 1 or 2 points, maybe 3 if im lucky ,yeah he got really few chance of winning, but still can and there goes a +25-30 for him high reward for almost no punishement at all , tbh facing low elo guy is way more scarier than playing someone around your own elo ,unless you play a really bulky team ,getting haxxed to a point even if you'r better sometimes you can't deal with it (yeah most of the top 25 is elositting till the saison end (yeah there no cba about when it ends, but after 2months expect her to stop anyday so ppl are tryharding), two days ago it took me 3games against 0-50pointers guy to go down to 400 from 500 withing 3games (freeze chance is kinda dumb è_é),but a whole day to take them back without loosing once against same kind of guy , so yeah what you are suggesting is asking for a totally dead ladder .

they NERF it recently i believe, ya its pretty retarded when confuse always last for 1 turn & rarely last for 2 turn, never seen 4 turn confuse since the NERF. When they should randomly last for 1-4 turn. they not work as original version now :Ambivalent: Sad you can't spam it anymore w/o impunity , that's really sad

C-ray is alreaddy retarted , don't bring swagger in the meta, thanks .

I'll repeat myself again but nvm ,that's from someone else but i'll quote that , The outcomes of so many competitive battles are already reliant on the whims of the RNG and haxx with critical hits and secondary effects (freeze, flinch, confusion) so there is no need to add an other luck factor with evasion.[glow=red]Minimize relies on pure luck, therefore it reduces drastically the competitive aspect of the game by giving too much place for luck so that's why it is banned.[/glow] Wait wait wait, isn't confuse ray the same thing ? i am wrong ?

I still dunno why confuse ray on his own isn't banned for the same reason as minimize ; excluding everything else (always lasting 4turns , not being 50/50 ..) . Yep still dunno

go ahead, win with a Raticate, Pidgeot, Victreebel, Muk, Beedrill and Primeape vs another out of the Top25 not sure if ur trolling but this sounds pretty arrogant if you really think that u can win with some bad pokemon only because" you are better" in a no skillbased game go ahead The guy who finished 3rd/4th was a fairly new player who msgd me for advice when i was 8th, i gave it to him, he put together a ragtag team with decent iv's but not epic(example- he used a < 31 speed timid Genagr) and got 3rd/4th, out placing myself. You dont need epics, just decent pokes that work well together is the key and prepping for as many scenarios as possible NVM u'r probably speaking about niai

go ahead, win with a Raticate, Pidgeot, Victreebel, Muk, Beedrill and Primeape vs another out of the Top25 not sure if ur trolling but this sounds pretty arrogant if you really think that u can win with some bad pokemon only because" you are better" in a no skillbased game go ahead ??? I was obviously speaking about ivs but nevermind, and for your information if you knew what i am actually running on my team , you would be astonished .

Nice argumentation right there . :y: Ps : cavalier feel free to pm me ig or on discord, im either always logged in tutorship channel on showdown as well .

Bump , more lvl 100 pokémons

Hello , since the whole pro pokedex isn't fully ORAS yet (some mooves are missing for some pokémons but yeah , that's not the topic ) Im here about Base Stats , Scolipède from BW to XY gained 10base atq stats , and obviously they are missing in pro :( (but yea , scolipede got the h.a IG wich is from XY tho ), if you can do something about it , or any information you are willing to give about updating the whole pokédex i would be thanksfull . Ps : https://prntscr.com/cmwvil (pro dex) ,https://pokemondb.net/pokedex/scolipede , https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Scolipede_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#Stats https://www.smogon.com/dex/xy/pokemon/scolipede/https://www.smogon.com/dex/bw/pokemon/scolipede/

Sorry for disagree with you, but special reward for only top 25 is much better. You have no choice that you have to put more effort in pvp (Building team, Battling, etc.). I'm fine with current pvp points system, it's not about how many matches you win (the ratio), it's about how you can battle with top players to get higher points. Anw, if you can't get in top 25, you still have 1 coin/win when battling :D So I think our staff already gave us a small chance to get points. If you want more points, then try to being top 25 :) It's not ez but not that hard. You can do it mate :D Try harder :D Dude you realise that being in the top 25 means you must have like loads of $$ to invest in teams/strategies what what not? My team might be good but if i wanna get to 600 elo i must invest like triple maybe more of the money i have until now...it's not that easy... Irrevelant argument right there, you don't need epic/godlike pokemon to be top 25 , you just have to play better

Ok :y:

Bump , images are working now

Well that's the meaning behind h.o team
