Also, due to my life circumstances being surrounded by poverty and constant risk of homelessness, I'm afraid I will not be very active until January which is when I'll finally have a room to stay in for cheap and I'll be able to live my life lol. I plan on being greatly involved in online gaming communities (especially SPPf and therefore, VO lol) when I'm more financially stable, mainly centered around the RPG genre. I am also heavily into Creative Writing and it has essentially been my go-to in my free time for around a year now, whether it be fanfiction or original craft.

I have also installed the appropriate emulators to play a lot of old classical Pokémon games, to which I would like to start a Nuzlocke Let's Play series on Pokémon: Yellow, Crystal, Emerald, and Platinum. I had also fiddled with the idea of writing fanfiction surrounding these playthroughs since I've never tried writing a Pokémon fic before. What do you guys think? And is anyone else here interested in literary arts and stuff?

Aye best of luck with your literary pursuit. I enjoy reading/writing too, albeit mostly nonfiction/philosophical fiction.
We're nothing but small voices of strangers coming through a sinking Digimon forum, but sometimes that small voice is needed to motivate and incite progress!


lmao I laughed too hard on this.
Is Dhelmise more viable than Decidueye? Its defensive/offensive stats look solid compared to the bird and both have a trapping move, but its lack of recovery means makes him less viable.

Falling Light
stop

Dhelmise looks cool. I think it would be way more reliable if it had something like haze or better recovery. Seems pigeonholed into an assvest set. I'm gonna say ru since Pelipper and mantine are now things for keld. Idk how relevant keld will be after initial bans either so maybe even less viable

Lol this is to funny and I got my sun and final fantasy 15 today so going to start my run through and stuff

and I am seeing a lot of mega suer and heatran combos this gen once we get rid of some annoying pokemon

Trying Minior in pre pokebank OU, and it's seriously high risk, high reward. It either takes down most of the team, one pokemon or none. There is no inbetween. Alolan Marowak hits really hard, like really really hard. It's worth considering even with its abysmally low speed, even off of a trick room team.

I pray for the day they finally ban deoxys-lite. Pheromosa is nuts.

Alolan Marowak has excellent typing and a nice immunity ability. Shuts down Koko, Mosa, Wole, Zone, pretty much a lot of things. Defensive Wak has seen a bunch of use as of late. Rest+Talk Wak is cool to. I'm really glad sword is gone!

Anyways, come on into the chatroom anyone! I'll be waiting and willing to give you the Alolapix.

I honestly really underestimated how much Alolan Marowak's new typing would do for it. All I thought about was how its now weak to rocks and earthquake, but now all I hear about is how good it is because of all its resistances and lightningrod. I really like Marowak, Alolan form or not, so I might actually give it a try.

I don't think it'll work as my Bisharp replacement, though, so I'll have to give that one a wait unless I decide to make another new team.

I might be wrong, but I don't think Lagging Tail actually lower the speed stat, it just forces the pokemon to act last. That said, I wouldn't recommend an Iron Ball or Macho Brave for it either, because it's slow enough already. Just give it a -speed nature and make sure it has bad speed IVs. Then you could give it a more useful item, like Leftovers.

And welcome to the guild, by the way!

Wow guys you sure are quick to welcome a person into the clan, not too quick now! Lemme confirm it right quick.

Ok you're in! Welcome brandy and poacher, thanks for joinin our clan! I'll add you to the list next time I find myself at a laptop as I'm currently away. Try and get a test battle for a launch out of default rank. Please feel free to take part in our ladder challenge and vulpix giveaway from a few pages ago. I do plan on hunting all of you down for the vulpix that are rightfully yours.

The time draws near for our first Su/Mo CCAT. Shouldn't be too long till smogon finishes their bans, I hope. Get a Mon in mind and get a nice description goin to, I should be back in the groove around Friday or so.
 
Just finished sun! Whimsicott carried late game with skarm. Game's actually a little difficult at the e4 if you were a little underleveled like I was.
The team:
Golisopod
Blissey
Skarmory
Whimsicott
Muk
Zydog
