A Simple Request

Before you post something to be rated could you please take these points into account.

- Asking for a moveset isn't asking for a rate, and would probably get your topic locked, if you want a specific moveset, then posting your team (with the moveset you currently have) and asking for moveset help would suffice.
just generally asking for a moveset will see you met with, a link www.smogon.com or someone saying 'this is rate my team not give me a team'

- I suggest looking at some other RMT threads in these boards, as you will pick up on things that are good and effective in pokemon battling, and you may begin to understand that hyper beam and the like are actually really poor moves and have better alternitives

- just posting a pokemon's name then level will not get you a team rate, it will get you grief. There is no way we can rate a team by just saying the pokemon and level, we need movesets and natures of the pokemon.

but not

blastoise lvl.12 - surf-ice beam-roar-rest
charizard lvl.12332 -fire blast-bellydrum-aerial ace-earthquake

that is so ugly to read, and many raters won't bother to follow it as it looks bad to the eye

pokemon @ (item)
(nature)
(evs if applicable)
(move)
(move)
(move)
(move)

this is easy on the eye, and it is already stickied in this forum, but for some reason people won't use it.

- When you post a team, if you haven't kept track of your evs or don't know what they are, then saying so in the thread somewhere would be a good idea, as some people (for some reason) hate it when people post rmt's without evs (god knows why, it's in-game who cares about evs)
same with items if you're not using them at all

that's some of the basic things

also

NOTE TO RATER PEOPLE:

IF SOMEONE IS USING UBERS PLEASE DON'T FLAME, I HONESTLY DO NOT THINK THE AI WILL CRY IF THE PERSON USES UBER POKEMON, SO GIVE THEM A BREAK

If you need to know what ubers are there is already a sticky noting what the ubers are and what are mistaken for them
 
The thing is, even if we sticky this, you do realise no attention will be paid to this.

Hmm....maybe that netbattlers are so used to things down the "good and netbattle" way that oing and rating in-game teams is too much of a brainsurge and bood vessel pop or something. After, in-game team rate is extremely leniant of the certain "rules" than CRMT.
 
This thread is semi-redundant to my thread, but meh.

*Ryan*, there will be some sort of effect. 0mastar himself is a very respected and prominent member in there sections, and whoever sees this link will understand how we RMTers feel when these ideas aren't followed to an extent.

Believe me Nine Thou, they won't. Most people who post in the in-game teams, if you look, are noobs to the forum and thus do not look at the stickies. They will most likely not even know 0ma and thus you can't respect someone you know nothing of ;l
