  1. http://www.pokemonreborn.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=11069
  2. Thank you very much! Liking the looks of the team, will try it out later. And since you seemed curious/confused, the idea was to have a AV Empoleon which can still outspeed foes. I've experimented with Trick Room before, but it never really worked out for me since I frequently got "outslowed", so I thought about Tailwind. Thinking I'd need something bulky to survive and set it a few times, and since Gliscor and Empoleon also cover each other's weaknesses...
  3. If you want to improve your team: Instead of Hydro Pump, I'd say go for Water Pulse. It's 90 power with 100 accuracy as opposed to 110 power with 80 accuracy. The confusion also comes in handy, when it happens. And make it's Ability Torrent. As rarely as it would benefit you, it'd still be more frequent than Rain Dish's activation. Also keep in mind this thing learns Flash Cannon for whenever Adrienn's badge is next on the list. For Mamoswine, I'd obviously recommend scrapping Strength. Great moves for it would be Curse, Freeze-Dry, Body Slam. You could also go back to pre-E13 and breed it a Rock move. Instead of Rock Smash and Headbutt, Drill Run (tutor) and Knock Off for Escavalier are great moves. Don't go for Rest on Roserade, healing moves are pointless since we have healing items. Sure, Natural Cure could make getting rid of Sleep easily, but still, there's no point unless you're doing a challenge. Instead, Technician Hidden Power has 90 Base Power. Also, Giga Drain is imo better than Leaf Storm. Not only does it heal you, it's nigh useless after a single use. I'd say the same thing for Roost as I have for Rest above. Instead, Tailwind is a wonderful move for Honchkrow, since it stops Speed-issues preventing sweeps. With Tailwind, you would be outspeeding all foes anyways, so you might as well ditch Sucker Punch at that point. Also, give this thing a Scope Lens and Night Slash will be critting 50% of the time. Flamethrower and Flare Blitz is redundant. Instead, Agility will pretty much make sure you go first. And since we're past Shade and Radomus, but have yet to face Terra and Hardy, Close Combat would be the superior move. Now, for your speed issues, you'd have 3 options, some speedy Pokemon, some Tailwinders or some Trick Roomers. For speed, the ones listed above along with Archeops, Swellow (if you get that Toxic Orb "illegally"), Zebstrika, Scolipede (helps with speed in general), Gengar, Espeon I guess, Tauros (especially pre-E13 if bred with Smeargle for moves), Durant (basically 190 base attack), Galvantula and Mismagius. Braviary and, especially in your case, Honchkrow are great Tailwinders. For Trick Room, Porygon-Z, Exeggutor (no, really), Bronzong, Gallade, Dusclops/noire, Cofagrigus, Gothitelle, Reuniclus, Chandelure, Gourgeist and Malamar are all great Trick Room setters.
  4. Their game, their call, I guess. I just do it for TM breeding, no axed 'Mons or the like.
  5. For spoilers, you just put whatever you want to "hide" between (spoiler) and (/spoiler) tags, just replace ( ) with [ ]. As for E12, it's basically the same as E11. And since E10.5 introduced Gen 6 Pokemon, this oughta work for ya. http://www.monkeypro.net/gameinfo.php?id=217
  6. Other than the Reborn shinies, I'm a huge fan of regular shiny Bisharp and Tangrowth:
  7. Guess I'm gonna drop this here. I went into detail on most battles, so I hope you find that useful. It is a Cain-game, but I really didn't rely on Samurott that much.
  8. Oh, sweet! An idea I'd like to see implemented would be Tailwind U-Turn Gliscor and AV Empoleon. A Scarfy Durant around there would be neat too, but not necessary. I'm fine with any not-Stall team.
  9. It's about TM moves, not actual TMs. Even if you don't have TM26, if you breed a Geodude who learned EQ by level-up with a Dwebble, you can get Dwebble EQ even without being in possession of the actual TM. At least that's how it used to work.
  10. I'm voting Teddiursa. It won't do anything till it evolves, but a Quick Feet or Guts one will really put in work against Corey, same for a QF one with a Dark move (especially if you'll do breeding, but Faint Attack works too, I guess) against Shade.
  11. Compared to my past experiences, my "easy" way to deal with it is to let whatever's out at the moment die and revenge Scarf. Should you try to switch in a counter rather than sending it out after something faints, it's gonna get hit twice before doing anything, unless it's a Scarfer. Something like AV Snorlax also worked for me, but now that a physical set is getting even more viable... I'm for a ban since it's basically guaranteed to get a kill whenever it switches in on something unless it's brought out against a wall, but how frequently does that happen? I'd say ban.
  12. Can confirm. I actually voted for the IW forum to have more reading material, among other reasons.
  13. It's been down for a while, a few more days will hardly matter.
  14. Eelektross with 73 more base Speed. Already high power, boat-load of great moves, no weakness. Fur Coat Mega Steelix.
  15. It may just be on my end, but on the typeresults page, it seems only a few types have actual images.
  16. Christmas-y clothes, presents, snow but no hat. WHAT DO I RATE THIS?! confused/10 9/10
  17. That was my bad, though all I said was that they were down for a while and no statements on when they'd be fixed had been made. Until now, that is.
  18. -Makes a topic to put hats on people -Doesn't wear a hat Bet you don't even put Christmas balls on swords, scrub.
  19. 4/10 Got Christmas hat, doesn't look jolly despite 'tis being the season.
  20. Unless it's a Fighting move or SE special move, it should be able to set up SD mostly sweep with S.Punch unless the foe is really, really physically bulky.
  21. If not, bring a Rock Smasher and explore below (inside?) the Grand Staircase, to the North.
  22. Anything in the same Egg Group as Liepard (so Field) and learns T.Wave via level-up. So Pikachu/Raichu (not Pichu), the Mareep line, the Electrike line, the Blitzle line and the Helioptile line. Then just follow the link in my guide to see how to add Smeargle to the mix.
