Regarding our selection process

[Mister_SGG]

I suppose.

 

[ASB]

The RNG seems to be pretty fair: There have been
1 first gen poke
2 second gen pokes
1 third gen poke
1 fourth gen poke
and 1 fifth gen poke
so far (the first six)

Half of them have been pseudolegendaries, but I'm not complaining.

 

[Serebii]

We haven't kicked into the random generator yet to be fair That starts March 20th

I was wondering if (I know it's a random selection)but if there could be a few more Generation V Pokemon?

The thing is, while yes I appreciate you want more Gen V strategies, we have to spread this out over the 4 years that this generation will last. If we do all 82 competitively viable Gen Vs now (albeit taking a year and a half), it'd mean we don't have much new for the other 2 and a half years.

Rest assured, the RNG has spat out a good portion of Gen Vs in the ones decided between now and the end of July

I jus thought of this, but will pokemon be re-featured if they get huge revamps as the generation goes on? I was dissapointed that Scizor did not get a post-Platinum feature (it got so much). In particular, I am thinking of Kyurem (he has two unreleased moves and a potential alternate forme in the third Gen V game).

 

[Serebii]

It's probable that we wont redo them due to time, but if Reno wants to go back and add things to them, I'm happy to facilitate that

 

[garchompkid]

i know you haven't used it yet but you should use the RNG as OU and Uber pokemon are getting boring

 

[ASB]

Would I be asking too much if I asked for a direct link to the pokédex page in the first post of the week's potw discussion thread, and perhaps in the POtW feature as well? Nobody wants to go to the pokedex and try to find the pokemon, and it wouldn't be too hard to do.

 

[garchompkid]

yeah i think thats a good idea

 

[Altaria Mist]

Couldn't find somewhere else to put this, so I'll just say POtW #7 has incorrectly stated Shell Break is -2 on Defense and Sp. Defense. it's -1. This has been thoroughly confirmed by Smogon multiple times, so probably change it if possible. Also seconding the idea of the RNG for the next POtW, unless you're doing Emboar and Samurott. it'd be cool to have an Unfezant or Leavanny analysis!

Seconding the fact that it's -1 to both stats, not -2.

 

[Grassmaster411]

I just hope they do venusaur soon. I have one but all the movsets i found are leech seed, SL powder, PO powder, and E ball

 

[garchompkid]

please do pokemon that didn't get a week last gen!

i am willing to get down on my knees and beg!

 

[Epicpip]

Do some starters! They got some new moves, like the Oaths and... yea. It would be interesting to see them again! Also, some starters didn't make the POTW last generation, so please do those ones.

 

[garchompkid]

starters are boring, do gimick pokemon

 

[13_luckynumber]

Can the next POTW be Lapras ? With its Dream World Hydration and bulkiness, I think it can rock this generation. Imagine the combo of Dragon Dance + Hydration + Rest + Rain.

 

[TheAwesomeOne]

So if we are going to use the RNG, what are we debating about?

 

[garchompkid]

can we do dialaga for the week of friday 28 october?

because it's matt smiths bithday (and mine) on that day

(matt smith plays doctor who)

 

[TheAwesomeOne]

I want to do Heatran

 

[garchompkid]

I want to do Heatran

yeah and we could add the moves it can know from pokemon ranger gardian signs

They've already done a few, namely Zoroark and Cloyster.
