How to Write a RMT Post

Also, include the Battle Sims like Shoddy and NetBattle?

yeah that' a good idea since i didn't know about those till like 2 weeks ago, and even if its only been 2 weeks im having loads of fun...
 
I noticed some things.

1)Some roles aren't necessary, but very much recommended. Rapin Spinners, Clerics, & the like aren't needed, but helpful. The basics are

Physical Sweeper
Special Sweeper
Phy.Wall
Sp.Wall

The others are optional, to your taste.

Also, a TANK is a pokemon that can take hits, & deliver them back, like Torterra, for example.

A DUAL(Mixed) WALL are those meant to absorb both types of moves.
 
I'd actually disagree sims. While you could get away with not having a spinner in ADV, you really kind of need one in 4th gen or SR will be a nuiscance. *loling at my spelling*

Same with cleric, except I've always thought this thing was necessary after a toxic blissey loled ay me.

Though you can get by without a PHazer IMO, I just always liek to have one so ninjask doesn't...

But that's just me ;)
 
Ah, but I speak from experience. I've seen many teams without Rapid Spin, and a HUGE amount of battlers without Clerics. They get along perfectly fine without them.
 
Rapid Spin is probably only needed if you have several pokemon weak to Rock. Clerics are one of the minor roles, they aren't necessarily needed.
 
Well, I play ADV, VERY different strategically, so I guess we SHOULD disagree ;)

But I like running a pokemon just to pump random status conditions into foes that don't have clerics. 95% success rate ;) But again, ADV and D/P are oh so different. you know my stance on that ;)

Um, you DO need a spinner in D/P though...I mean, my god is SR a pain in the behind. And skarm spiking you half to death is no fun either...
 
Take it from the people who plays D/P. It is extremely useful, but not needed. We know what to expect when Skarm comes, & a team (Richard, Name, for example) is set to handle Spikes/SR without it. My team cannot, so I must use Rapid Spin.
 
In ADV, magneton could be a pseudo-spinner. Skarm and Forry were the only widely used spikers, and Magneton destroyed both, so no spinner was really used with magneton. How times have changed...

But I recommend using status inducers on D/P teams. VERY effective strategy. But yeah, I guess I see your point. Geez, I'm so used to one metagame and yeah...lol
 
Hey toothy I've asked this before but may you add the hax items to your page? Eg:King's rock, razor claw.
 
I never got chance to thank you, Toothache, but thanks for writing this guide. :P
 
Oh good. Finally someone puts up a Post a Team format. ;)
(I haven't been on here till today. Saw this thread, and... yay!)

To add on to that (though this is more opinion than fact), most everybody I battle on Netbattle OR Shoddy agree that Netbattle is more user-friendly. It's also easier to save those logs and all that stuff.
 
I don't know how but it's advertised as such and no one has complained about not being able to do it. Ask around on the forums.
