Competitive Platinum Findings

A lot of these Pokemon are getting the strangest moves I've ever seen.

True that....so many are incredibly random.

Bastiodon = outrage?

And nosepass got the elemental punches.....it doesn't even have fists.....
 
Well, duh Bastidon got Outrage. It's pissed off that it's been made into a Rock/Steel type.
 
I could possibly see Clefable jumping up to BL. O_O

Victreebel @ Choice Band
Chlorophyll
Jolly / Naive Nature
6 HP / 252 ATK / 252 Speed

Leaf Blade
Gunk Shot
Sucker Punch
Sleep Powder / Leaf Storm

Victreebel being useful again brings a tear of joy to my eye. SDBel is viable as well.
 
Woah! Mass amount of information! Well done!
Carry on with the good work!

If you all have to do is copy and paste old info, then KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

I think this should either be updated or locked, as not all the moves are here that are now known, and is simply a copy and paste from Smogon...

Bibarel@Liechi Berry
Adamant
252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
Simple

Curse
Substitute/Quick Attack
Waterfall
Return/Quick Attack/Rest

Mai Curserel, brings all the Swampert to the yard, 'n 'der liek, you wanna curse off?

Switch in on something that doesn't like standard Bibarel and Sub. Curse behind Sub or continue to sub until Liechi kicks in. After Curse+Liechi, Bibarel has +4 Atk, +2 Def, -2 Spe.

@Flamehaze: Alakazam gets Encore. Does Gengar get Encore? I think NOT!

You are ALL wrong. Gastro Acid Vileplume will literally RUIN the metagame.

Vileplume@Black Sludge
Nature:Calm
Gastro Acid
Stun Spore/Leech Seed
Sludge Bomb/Grass Knot/HP Ground


I could really see this effing up some Levitators. So many pokes rely on their abilities. Metagross eats an Intimidate from a Gya switch in. Assuming, of course, it doesn't switch.
 
You wanna know something sims? When I battled in the Battle Factory today on Platinum, I was in the Lv 50 category and in the very first round. (For those who don't know, that's the weak pokemon round)

I had 6 pokemon choices:

Wartortle
Fearow
Gabite
Dragonair
Haunter

and....VILEPLUME! >=)

Oh, I see. You must've played the hacked version, made by con artist & gay camp instructors. The ones on South Park, not the ones who can make a fire.

I'd get your money back.
 
True. If you could get past Plume, the rest would just befor filler.
 
lol Sims, T_S, your argument is awesome, and dang it...I can't fave comments. I'm out of room thanks to Devi's Garchomp counter analysis and Nameless's confusion.

The Platinum upgrades are going to be a lot of fun to toy with. I'm waiting for the American version if I even get it though...speaking of which, when will that be, if anyone knows?
 
We have no idea. I guess that it would be around this Spring, or something. no word of it has been given outside of "leaks" from Serebii, etc.
 
Well since all the info isnt compiled onto one place i figure it would be best to use T_S's thread instead of this one for that reason. Thus making it easier for people to find since its all in one place and not having to go through a few pages =p.
