Are you more competitive guys talking about Black and White or are your teams from previous versions?

Some people are talking about smogon/pokemon online where you just make teams of 6 with perfect pokemon and play it on a simulator.

My post is referring to wifi in-game for black/white

Oh, okay.

Anyone else beaten the elite four and kinda stuck? I've gone to all the order cities and I've cleared most routes. I need to beat 2 more trainers in Black City and I guess I need to clear the caves and such. I missed HM05 somehow, too.

HM05 is hiding out in route 18, basically there's a patch of beach in route 1, surf on it and follow it all the way west

I hate the metagame for this gen, its basically a weather battle. So many fights come down to Politoed vs T-tar, whoever gets the weather boost in place wins:/

No chlorophyll?

... no Drought?


Chlorophyll pokes are really only on ones that have slow base speed (minus Jumpluff), I was thinking of switching out Leafeon for Vileplume to abuse it but Leafeon is a better wall.

And Drought can only be used by Groudon, which is Uber.

lern2dw

put drought on ninetales

aside from that:

1) where is charizard, charizard rapes everything
2) leafeon is pretty bad from my experience... consider switching it out for a faster sweeper which benefits more from sun
3) growth now gives +2 SpA, +2 Atk in sun. Make sure you have that on Venusaur.


The Leafeon I used back with my Sunny team a few pages back walls like a fucking beast. Its wish support is pretty essential for a Drought team anyway because of how fragile Droughtails is. It actually did a startlingly good job for a pokemon I thought was going to be subpar.

That being said I changed the team around, simply because SB Blaziken and Growth Venusaur in the sun is stupid good.

I switched Shaymin with Growth Venusaur and Bisharp with SB Blaziken. Blaziken now takes on the revenge killing role and Venusaur is the psuedo wall/semi sweeper. I like Leafeon too much to get rid of it though. That last second wish has allowed me to reestablish drought so freaking often it's not even funny. In addition to that it's a VERY fast user of Chlorphyll, in fact I think the only thing faster is Whimsicott who you're going to use for Prankster anyway.

In fact all together Sun teams are very fast. DW added a shit ton of Chlorophyll pokemon and the ones that don't have Chlorophyll on my team usually have some other way to gain speed.

I wish I knew how many stages there are. I've gotten to the fifth and lost a few times. I want my Espeon

Oh and apparently all the DW eeveelutions are only male. No female Espeon


When I played... there were four stages >_>

It is unfortunate about the male-only thing though...


Apparently only the females pass on the DW ability to the eggs. So I guess they made them all male so that you don't get someone breeding a million Hydration Vaporeons and then putting them on the GTS, so that no one has to play this evil game.

they are going to see your all fire team and immediately know that your leading with ninetales and pick accordingly to counter you. Sandstorm teams gettin raped too since everyone just leads with a fighting type to shit on T-Tar. all the people that have a ton of wins run very mixed teams with really adaptable movesets. To give an example


saw an eelectross on a guy with 2k wins:
@ chesto berry

coil
zap cannon
rest
dragon tail


and you wont see rain teams really until drizzle politoed is available to all

right now im running

machamp @ choice scarf
cloyster @ focus
hydreigon (want to replace him)
ferrothorn (want to replace him, walls are fucking horrible in this format)
ninjask (want to replace him, baton pass doesn't work well in this format)


I dunno I hate that format.

3v3 when you bring 6 always seemed a bit meh to me. 6v6 is where its at. Always gives me the most variation. That and it gives weather teams some viability.

I agree, the format the way it is now is rather bad. 3v3 doesn't let you to set up or do any cool combinations.. I use Reuniclus, defense HP EV, Life orb - > Tyrantitar dragon dance - > Excadrill.. There is really no variation and no close calls. From what I can tell, the only way to 6vs6 is just infrared? amiright?

yeah I don't like that 3v3 can be down to how well you guess your opponents team. I really wish they had a 6v6 mode.

No one likes that mode, GF is just retarded

Im not sure where I would go to do 6v6s though so its pretty much all I can do.

Besides, I have seen some legit people on there that are actually good, all their movesets are pretty much ready for anything and fairly clever.

Saw one dude with 2k wins running

You should! It's the most well made game thus far. I was playing soul silver and some other things and was just like... man this is SOOO much slower. The new game is much more fluid

With people runnnig these sets, I dont understand why people dont run hard hitting physical tanks as leads. Standard hippowdon seems like he would laugh at all this stuff.'

Anyway, I ran a lead sashed sableye with taunt/WoW/foul play/shadow sneak. Probably the best WoW user I have come across.

Not yet. Smogon is still going through the game, but the tiers should be out soon, hopefully.

They did recently ban Blaziken to Ubers though.
