Looking for a challenge. The formats I play in are: BW Ubers Singles Flat* Doubles Flat* Rotations Flat* VGC 2011 All Star Cup PM me any time! *flats under Random Match-up rules only.

Well, you technically don't have to know anyone to have a Zorua in your game. It's very easy to get through the GTS, seeing as there is a boy that shows you a picture of Zorua in Castelia. Mightyena's worse? Meh, at least it has Intimidate.

It's usually Aerodactyl - my main Flyer Slowking - my main Surfer Magmar - when I'm breeding

Yeah, Poorloin is pretty bad. Liepard's 88 Base Attack is loltastingly bad late game, and it's level-up is pathetic. Plus there are so many better Dark types in this game (Scrafty, Krookodile, Zoroark) that I can't see why anyone would want to use Liepard (unless it's his/her favourite Pokemon...

As I predicted before release, PWT is just a watered-down variant of Battle Frontier, which tries too hard to hide it's mediocrity with flashy visual effects and blatant fanservice. If you have a well-trained team, you can literally blast through everything in the matter of seconds, while only...

Most Pokemon I've used in DPPt were pretty good. I don't think I can single out one Pokemon which was in any way bad, apart from maybe Tropius in Platinum, but I kinda knew it was going to suck so I can't really call that a disappointment xD Hmm, actually now that I think about it, I remember...

Downloaded this bad boy a few days ago. Love his cry. I'm going to RNG a Timid natured Genesect, seeing as Gonzo has already grabbed a Naive one :P

People didn't have anything better to compare them to back in 2006/2007. Notice how as soon as B/W got released, D/P became the most "hated" generation in the fandom. It isn't some new and unknown phenomena either - the same happened in transition from gen III to gen IV (when many people claimed...

Hey, Simisage isn't that bad. The only bad period it has is the one between Vine Whip and Seed Bomb (13-22?) - I agree that at that point, training Pansage is an absolute pain. But once it learns Seed Bomb, it only gets easier from there - you get Dig, then Acrobatics, then Rock Slide... and...

Picking only from the games that are confirmed to exist, the absolute must-have titles will be Monster Hunter 4, New Super Mario Bros. 2 and Phoenix Wright vs Professor Layton. MH ranks as my favourite series of all time right next to Pokemon, Golden Sun and Phoenix Wright, so it's pretty much...

Unless you're playing at at least 10 level disadvantage, it's nearly impossible to not kill everything in your path with the combo of itemless Acrobatics and Rock Slide. Even if for some reason the opponent will live the onslaught and activate your Defeatist, it's not like you're in Wi-Fi...

Oh lawrd, Gonzo looks nothing like the last time I saw him. Sucks I couldn't be there with you two. I'd say you should go a little more in-deph with your report, but seeing as I pretty much know all the details anyway it would be kinda pointless of me to ask xD

Gigalith was probably the worst. While it is unarguably a very good looking Pokemon, it was just too slow to accomplish much during my playthrough. Having to constantly rely on Quick Claw hax got extremely tiring, so I replaced him with Beartic, which performed much better.

I can definitely say that BW were the worst in the series, and playing B2 has only further reaffirmed my stance. Tons of poor game design choices made this game look very, very bleak in comparison to the absolutely fantastic HG/SS, which was released just 1 year prior to BW1. The main problem...

Yep, bought in on eBay 1,5 year ago. Thunderbolt animation still gives me nightmares xD
