Mooo, I know I'll have Shunn. Everything else will come about naturally. I can't plan my mood for when Pokemon catching will ensue. Right now I could say I'd want to catch a Spheal for when we go somewhere cold, but when that moment actually comes IC I might actually change my mind and go for something more rugged, say a Cubchoo or something like that.

Cx Can't really plan anything, tbh

After a bit of planning, I now have a little list of what I can potentially work with...

All I know for sure though, is that one by one, someway, somehow, all the team members shall fall to the ingenious wrath of Dizzles (Diz), The Wise Spinda...

and their fates shall be sealed...

I'm still surprised your Spinda doesn't have Contrary. It gets Superpower and I've seen so super cool other ways it's ability has been abused to good effect lol. But eh, that's me XD. ((least... didn't when I last looked.))

The hell you talking bout sensei?

I looked like three times... I never once saw Superpower in Spinda's learnset. That's why I said "Screw it!" and went with own tempo... cause Diz follows the beat of his damn drum, no one elses.

Actually, to be honest, Spinda is like the only pokemon with Contrary who has no real way to properly exploit it to the fullest. Snivy's line gets leaf storm and stuff, Malamar gets Superpower, etc... but Spinda is more of a joke for it.

EDIT: Looked again. Yup, still don't see superpower. get's Drain and Focus Punch though, so... there's that I guess.

It's pool isn't that good regardless, but that's partially the reason why it was given to her in the first place.

Spinda gets Superpower on Showdown. Whether or not it's a typo in one of the wikis. I can verify in the showdown teambuilder and the fact I've had it come up in randbats. It's the only viable set for it in that particular meta.

Just checked Bulbapedia, Serebii, Pokemon Database, Veekun, and Smogon itself.

Out of the five of all those databases, only Smogon itself lists Spinda as having any access to the move whatsoever... all the others don't though.

I mean, really, theres no actual point continuing to discuss this. Even if Spinda does somehow magically get access Superpower someway, I've got four sources stating no and only one claiming yes. And it's not like I'm gonna change Diz's ability (Not like I would even be allowed to after the sheet's already been finalized and accepted, anyway)

Check 5th Gen on Serebii it has it.

Actually here, jsut control+f Super Power you'll find it. http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-bw/327.shtml

Keep in mind, due to the Wi-Fi in 5th Gen no longer existing it's impossible to get a Spinda with it now. That's why it's not listed anymore in 6th Gen current stuff since it's impossible to obtain. However, if you had one with it, it kept it XD. So yea, it does get it. Just it's impossible without genning for anymore to exist in the canon games.

hmmm... so it does...

but given it's dream world only and now completely impossible to do, I don't really think ever running the move on it here can really be justified...

Besides, I got my own eventual plans for own tempo... that's something Spinda can still exploit with at least one move without having to do any complicated things in the game.

Of course lol, I just thought it was interesting. Honestly, the Own Tempo route would be much more interesting. Though I don't really know what it would benefit from it... unless it gets Thrash. That's a horrifying thought...

*Chuckles like a sith lord*

I think I know what Stratos's thinking is based off the old Ymora...he may have used one in a pseudo battle in the Winter Cup and oh my god was that amazing. But yes, don't underestimate the "weaker" abilities. I made Suction Cups look like a good ability on Lileep.

Y'know this kind of reminds me back in BW2 on Pokemon Online with Chandelure. If you look at it's Hidden Ability right now, it is Infiltrator. Waaayyyy back in those days, it had the unreleased Hidden Ability of Shadow Tag. They just never released it on Dream World, and because of Game Freak logic, we got Infiltrator.

Just a little tidbit for you.

To be fair... I saw Shadow Tag Chandy in action... it was not a pretty sight for the enemy team. (( I think the other Gen 5 one to change was Scolipede's which was Quick Feet which was changed to Speed Boost. OM NOM NOM GIMME DAT SPEED. Though I think Quick Feet was released unlike Chandy's.))

I mean, if it was possible at any point, I'm personally not against a mon having X ability. This really isn't competitive after all and, really, with things like shadow tag it's a bit irrelevant considering you aren't going to be switching often. Some things just aren't as OP.

I mean, I've seen some crazy shiet in my day that people actually find viable (see Contrary Shuckle with Shell Smash. No joke on the Showdown main's Wi-fi channel, I've seen people wanting a Gible with Endure on it. I sure wish I were clowning around, but man whatever the fuck floats someone's boat.
