read the rules before posting you team though (you need a description for each one too). read the guides in the sticky threds too. they will give you some advice, like why giga impact isnt a good move

 

[Vendidurt]

bad***noob.... your alakazam needs help. he doesnt have the bulk to use recover properly, and he doesnt have the attack for psycho cut. get psyshock, the TM if you want physical! and then, you wont need psychic. i advise Shadow Ball.

 

[GuardChomp]

Due to the fact that this team has poor syenergy, Ryperior without TR, looks like it was slapped together in 5 minutes, & fails to give enough details, I dont think it deserves a rate. Also 4 posts & this belongs in RMT.

DON'T PLAY RANDOM MATCH UP
Too many rage quiters,uber Pokemon users,and ect.

idk i love random wifi cause my pokes aren't 100 yet (EVings enough work as it is) and its good for laughs and giggles

 

[hyperion33]

Why are there such an abundance of noobs lately? Is it b/c of B/W?

Anyway, the only status move I saw was Recover, and that's not good on an Alakazam. Vendidurt, what's wrong with Psychic? I think you should keep it.

Suicune: Extrasensory doesn't make sense to me... you can keep it but I recommend something with better coverage (Dig helps w/ Electric types). Also, you don't need Surf and Hydro Pump. Get something... better. And you can do better than Aurora beam. Like Ice beam.

Dragonite: You really don't need Fly for competitive... Thunder will kill you. Replace it with Dragon Dance or Hurricane. Replace Thunderbolt with Thunder (unless you hate the accuracy) or Dragon Dance (if you chose Hurricane). Replace Dragon Claw with Outrage.

Staraptor: Why do you even have one if you have a Dragonite? And it has a horrible movepool. Anyway, Aerial ace has low power, so replace it with Brave Bird. Maybe Toxic for Fly? I don't know.

Zoroark: You have nothing to counter your weaknesses, except for sucky Aerial Ace. Try Extrasensory (or maybe Flamethrower). Also replace Shadow Ball with Nasty Plot or Calm Mind.

Haxorus: Giga. Impact. Sucks. Replace with Hone Claws.

More pending.

Oh man, I love random match up. I love it when Iget on with my RNG'ed, Flawless shinies and see people DC right in front of me.

why is there only 1 save file in pokemon?

how do bicicles fit in bags?

how do pokemon fit in pokeballs?

if a pokemon is caught in a hacked pokeball, is the pokemon considered a hack?

finally, how the hell can you not fly on a scyther when you can fly on a spearow?

Because there's no practical use for a second save file. The most you would gain is the ability to start a new file without erasing your old one, which would serve no real purpose, or, to put it a different way, is not something the games are any worse off for not having. You certainly wouldn't be able to trade critters between the save files.

yes you could. trade a pokemon from file 1 to someone else then they trade it to your second file

Not what I meant.

[Angeltripper]

[deokishisu.123]

You can have 2 save files.

Buy another game.

I was hoping number 3 was a joke and skipped it, miju. .-.

Question- Why does Pikachu get hurt in some way that dramatically decreases his level?

 

[Marbi Z]

Don't use legendaries!!!

For the same reason they don't let you start a new game with a Lv. 100 critter.

 

[deokishisu.123]

Orly? *derp-trades lvl shiny metagross into his newly made Pearl file like a BOSS.*

But, yeah, that has ties to the whole fresh start idea.

 

[burninator59]

Does a little dot above a Pokemon's HP bar in Crystal mean it has had Pokerus before?
If so then my Donphan must have contracted it as a Phanpy and gotten over it in the long break I took from the game *facepalm* That would explain why it can't get it from my Magby. And I can't comprehend how (un)lucky I would have to be to get it twice in the same game, but not realize the first time.
