Yeah, I noticed that. I also didn't have much to talk about, but recently my post count has been soaring.

Yeah, it's even worse then bug/steel. Rock and Flying x4 weaknesses is ridiculous. There're plenty others, but I don't feel like naming all the mistakes made in IV Gen.

It's great. One of my favorite flying type moves. YES. GOLBAT. finally. Totally worth it, just for this satisfaction. Though now I have Surge, and he's useless. Time to train up drowzee.

Yeah, this is just for a playthough, plus no EVing. I'm just using it because I don't want another Alakazam. There needs to be more Psychics.

Oh, what else have you been finding? I don't bother to belittle the taste of random teenagers anymore, so generally I only post when I have something to contribute to a discussion or I'm just on a kick for some certain band.

Yeah Bug/Steel is actually a really solid type...so Bug/Flying is MUCH worse. Stealth rock was one of the nails in the Coffin, but they are also weak to Fire and Bolt/Beam, which is going to be on basically any special attacker there is. Mistakes mainly are Rocks and few Rapid Spinners, and Dragons in general lol.

Golbat will always be cool because of the R/B Sprite.



Yeah, my favorite is Espeon. There haven't been that many decent mono Psychics since the early days, unless some are slipping my mind. Well...the Lake Trio I suppose...but non legends I mean.

Well, it's mainly here, but I post in the Saint Louis discussion board. I hang out with those guys in real life, so it's worthwhile talking to them on here too. I could use another thread though.

That fire x4 is a killer though. I would know, Scizor is one of the few things that I really enjoy competitively. I used one at nationals.

That tongue makes him popular with the lady bats. But now that I'm playing this game, I realize that FR/LG are my favorite sprites in the entire series. And Golbat is awesome. During school today I just zoned out and drew Zubats all day. Got pretty good at it too.

I've used Espeon, Alakazam... Even Grumpig. I just hope that they make more for gen V.

Ohhh gotcha.

Well, Scizor is pretty good, haha. The fire weakness is really the only way to kill it most of the time.

LOL...tongue. I'll have to check out the FR/LG sprites, I'm not too familiar with them. That's cool you can draw Pokemons.

Yeah, I don't want to say that we NEED more pure Psychics, but there haven't been any upper tiers ones in a while. Steel/Psychic is all the rage.

Scizor is awesome. and I have a 31 Attack and Speed IVs, Adamant, Technician(?) EV Trained one. Pretty awesome.

I can kinda draw them. It's mainly bold lines, and little detail. I've been drawing them since back in the day, but I was pretty bad back then. I don't really count it as a talent, but it's a decent thing to doodle.

The sprites are really detailed though, and less cartoony then the other games. I dig em a lot.

Yeah... Another good Bug or an upper tier Fire would be nice too.

Caught my drowzee. On the SS Anne. Team:
Drowzee- Lvl 11
Golbat- Lvl 23
Ivysaur- Lvl 28

(Plus the awesome Ch'Ding! Best name in the world for a Farfetch'd)

Oh yeah, now I remember talking about that Scizor. I have a very similar one I used to use on my team.

Ahhh, well I can doodle things but generally I don't have a knack for stuff like Pokemons. I draw a lot of Trogdors...

I like on Bulbapedia where they have all the sprites together so you can compare them.

Yeah, I'm not sure how they are going to make more viable fire types. There are so few in OU, it would take some other interesting Hybrids perhaps. What about Fire/Dragon? I'm not sure I want to wish for that, though. Dragons are bad enough as is, lol.

Not bad so far, I love that if you don't get Cut on the SS Anne you lose, hahahahaha. I am having a brain fart and don't get the Farfetch'd name...it seems like it will be awesome when I understand though.

Yeah, it's pretty good. I like it.

Hahaha. I would figure. How did that start?

Yeah, the serebii pokedexes only go so far. It really is best if you look really closely. There are a of of details that aren't there normally.

Heatran and Infernape are pretty good, but both kind of annoy me. They're good, but they're not my style. A Fire/Dragon would be crazy good. I can just see that.

Yeah, it's a bitch. I think there's one way around it with cheating. The farfetch'd is the only one in the game, and it has that nickname. So funny. It's just impossible to get another one.

Indeed, at least Scizor made Weavile GTFO. I would much rather deal with Scizor because at least he is cool.

Shoot I dunno...high school...Homestarrunner was the shizzzz

Yeah if I get bored maybe I'll go cruise through the sprites lol. Any favorites?

Ahh. Those two are both really good. Especially Heatran. I hated it, but I started playing with SubTran and I was like OMG awesome. That's what made me go catch a good one...I still need to EV train it though. Infernape is really versatile, but I haven't felt like breeding one...starters are a pain. I don't know what your style is, but if you want a Fire type in OU those are about your only two options. I have been using Blaziken in OU with decent success, but that's only because my team is UU...Infernape is clearly better. But yeah I don't like Infernape because most people that use him put him on the same generic team...

Ohhh gotcha, that's an In Game nickname, lol. Hoping for a Farfetch'd evo next gen...it couldn't get any worse...

Scizor is a beast. I love it. I've liked it since Gen 2.

High school sucks in general, but your high school was sometime around my middle school. So I know exactly what you mean.

Yeah, I hate it when people start with Infernape, because it's just so standard.

My mom wants you to know that she likes Farfetch'd. Haha, and what would the evolution look like? Two sticks?

Yeah same, I have a ballin Sciza' I used on a team during my second run through Silver I believe.

Would have been like 03-04 timeframe...seems pretty long ago now D:

Ahh, I don't see all that many LeadApes. The good thing is they are usually very predictable...I am much more worried about stuff like NastyPlot Mixape than I am a lead that is going to set up rocks and die. I have had teams that wet their pants once Infernape was +2 SpA...

How about having a bigger Farfetch'd holding a Sudowoodo? And your mom likes a Pokemon hahaha.

Alright I'm out of here, I'll be back tomorrow (another work from home snow day)...

It's just cool overall.

Really? I see a ton. They're all over the place. And it's all the same, but they usually switch out and then I have that floating over my head when I want to use Scizor.

Haha. That'd just be silly.

I've been so bored all day. I'm sick, so I'm not going again tomorrow probably. I need something to do.

Yeah well I haven't been on Shoddy that much lately so I dunno. Infernape doesn't really threaten Scizor that much, it has terrible defenses. If you just U-Turn when they switch it in, that should put ape in Bullet Punch KO range after SR damage anyway. If you think Ape is coming in, just use your Fighting attack of choice, that'll wreck it.

Silly, but Sudowoodo is basically a big stick anyway.

That's too bad you are sick...I will be going back into the office tomorrow.

I don't battle much anyway. It may just be that clan I was in for a while back.

Just got a Space C Deoxys off of GTS. For a lvl 30 Arcanine. And it's legit.

Haha. I just keep thinking of a giant Farfetch'd with horns. I doubt that's happening.

Yeah, it'll give me time to finish up some things anyway.

Oh yeah, the Serebii thing. I remember that.

Not a bad deal, how did you check it's legitness?

Horns? I dunno, i thought it was supposed to be a kind of duck...
