Nice battle! That said, I did notice that you have no way of possibly handling Mega-Beedrill once it's set up on your team. It gains momentum quite easily and can deal with Heatran using Drill Run and or U-turn to gain the advantage of a switch. Protect variants in specific are an issue for your team, since they do outspeed +1 DD Altaria and hit her hard with boosted Poison Jab for the KO. Yes, Landorus-T is your check to them, however they gain the advantage through the before mentioned U-Turn and can come in with a check and/or counter to him.

Giving Bisharp LO may help, as I noticed the lack of power cost you Bisharp when using Sucker Punch against a Magneton, since it can gain your set more power and help you score more KOs. Scarfed Landorus-T could also help since it can come in against more of your threats to either scare-switch them out or revenge them, thus gaining you more momentum.

Yeah Beedrill is a problem but between Bisharp, Heatran and Landorus- Therian it's not a huge problem. It it does though then I'll perhaps look at something more definitive to deal with it. I run BlackGlasses on Bisharp although I'm looking at Assault Vest since it's getting 2HKOed by Latias for god's sake. I'd run TTar but I need the priority from Sucker Punch. I won't use Scarf Landorus, since I need it for hazards. I have Healing Wish Latias now; no problem for Landorus to be weakened too much since if need be I'll Healing Wish it back up.

Snivy finished a team… It's a Christmas Miracle!!!

Will you be ready for the war then?

Yeah, you bet! I haven't heard from the other war team members though as to who they want to war with. Might end up just warring whoever it was you said (I can't remember who).

Me and Ekans both want to war Veno Oscuridad. The other two war team members seem to have been really inactive lately so that might be a problem :/

I'll participate if you don't mind my filling in?

If you actually want to be on the war team you have to be tested by Snivy Trainer since he's the leader, I'm not sure how subs are chosen, but based on what I've seen from you I think you'd be qualified.

Good luck with the war. We should really challenge other guilds, even if we lose, we must make a name for ourselves and give the others a game. We have good trainers so we should be able to make our mark ;)

I'm planning my Battle of Hoenn team and I'll start to breed it. I gave up on Mega Blaziken for two reasons:

1 - I'll run Mega Aggron since it is a solid counter to Mega Salamence. Fire Blast fails to 2HKO with the right investment. EQ fails the 2HKO on Aggron even with a positive nature at +1, and with little investment, Ice Punch OHKOes Salamence after SR or some recoil from Double Edge.

2 - Mega Blaziken needs full investment and a neutral nature to OHKO Mega Salamence with HP Ice. Life Orb Blaziken OHKOes with 4 EVs. The Speed may be troublesome, but I want to be able to handle Mega Salamence once it comes in. That thing is a nightmare and I want to make sure I have more than one way of dealing with it.

Other members will include Mega Manectric (not sure if running HP Grass for Swampert, HP Ice for Flygon and Mence or Protect to Mega Evolve safely), Azumarill (it's always useful), and two others I haven't decided yet. If you have any suggestions, feel free. Remember, only Hoenn Dex Pokémon and no more Megas. Gardevoir and the Lati twins are interesting choices as is bulky Gyarados. I may need something to counter Breloom. Magic Bounce Xatu may work if I can avoid a Rock Tomb...

It looks like Dracanea and VO are actually going to war each other, so basically we're SOL unless it doesn't work out between them :(

What does SOL mean?

So Out of Luck

Anyway, I'd like to be tested whenever possible. In my last guild, I was leader of the War Team, but because I had to leave for Basic Training, I had to relinquish my post as Guild Leader. If joining the War team helps, I'm all for it! :)

Exactly what kind of Basic Training?

Again, what is this Battle for Hoenn? It looks interesting. Is it singles?

Of course not, the more the merrier (and the easier it is for me). You'll need to fill out the sign-up form, and then I'll test you on Showdown. I haven't really gotten round to saying who can and can't be on the war team since we literally have only just gotten a full team, and we have no subs. So depending on how well you do depends on how often you'll participate in wars. I'll try of course to rotate everyone about - looking ahead to coming wars some of the team isn't very active, so you'll probably be on the team provided you're active and I'll probably base who's on the team on activity.

Anyway, I'd like to be tested whenever possible. In my last guild, I was leader of the War Team, but because I had to leave for Basic Training, I had to relinquish my post as Guild Leader. If joining the War team helps, I'm all for it! :)

Excellent. Fill out the sign-up form of the first page, I'll test you and we're good to go. As I said in my above paragraph. Nice to see we have a previous War Team leader too, could use some experience on the team.

Well I've had a slightly uneventful day, and so haven't played World of Warcraft or ORAS. I haven't decided on a class to play in WoW, but I have decided to continue looking for Electrike in the DexNav rather than settle for my current one.

It's the WiFi Tournament that it's going to be on in January. It's Battle Spot Singles, Hoenn Dex only.

Also, I'd like to remember Land Sector Members that the Christmas Battling Season is on, so get your teams ready and do some battles. There's a free 5IV Pokémon once you reach Golett Rank.

No one has reported a battle for a while, huh? I'm pretty much always ready to accept challenges either on PS or WiFi, so if anyone's interested VM me. I'll teach you Land Sector thugs a lesson ;)

I'd do it except I won't have everything done by the 11th. I can't beat the game, get the 6 Pokemon I need and then IV/Egg move breed them as well as then EV train them in time.
