Chat 'em All: 4Ever [Pokemon]

[kickan]

Including... the Dream World???

[kickan]

I must be masochistic because I'm definitely breeding a Vullaby with Roost with the intention of using it versus the Elite Four. And I'm totally gonna name it Pebbles.

[evergreenWanderer]

So...has anyone else tried jumping into the Dream World? I've been forced to wait. ._.
e. Wait, nevermind. Seems I got in now.

[Zombiitwo]

I got on last night, but unfortunately for some reason I couldn't get it to load past my island... so no fun dw pkmn for me yet. ALso has anyone gotten their Eeveelutions yet from the DW?

[laserdogbad]

hey guys i want to make a fourm adventure thats like a sburb session but instead their house gets attacked by legendary pokemon when they try to enter the global link and then they get there at last second like metor.
good idea y or n

[Metaflare]

n

man, sounds like the global link is having all sorts of issues

[evergreenWanderer]

Weird. I was able to go through the Dream World without any problems. Just ran into a ton of loading screens and had to wait as long as 5 minutes.

[kickan]

I've had zero problems so far. Got into the dreamworld once yesterday and again today without a hitch.

I'm glad that you can in fact soft reset for pokemon from the dream world, though you have to save outside of the Entralink and the gender is always the same. And being able to send the dream-pokes into the deep clearing to be picked up later is a nice option too.

[Saturn]

So it turns out that even though the Global Link Website lists the DW usage as "Quiet", I still haven't gotten past Fennel's 'Processing' Message.
After 29 Hours.

[Miraculous]

I still get the processing message after almost two days. It's ridiculous. I'm going to try doing another Game Sync.

[weirdguy]

Didn't find that Espeon yet, but did run into like, eight other pokemon.

Took the female Nidoran.

Now to try out this new musical...

Dewott (holding an Eviolite)


Whimsicott


Galvantula


Haxorus


Chandelure


Sigilyph

Thoughts?

[muffinz]

Um...
You're going to use two legendaries on your team?
Two of the most powerful in the game, at that?
One of which you can't catch until very near the end, thus leaving you with only five party members until then?
The other of which you stopped being able to catch days ago, meaning that you have to trade or cheat?

Not that that is neccesarily a bad thing.
I'm just... sort of surprised that you would do that.

The Victini event's been extended, the ticket is still available for download. And if you've already downloaded your ticket you can do the event any time, whether the download is still available or not.

[evergreenWanderer]

Okay, so my current Random Matchup team is:

Ferlaligator- Terry
Moves:
Dragon Dance
Crunch
Ice Punch
Waterfall

Snorlax- Monty
Rest
Sleep Talk
Body Slam
Crunch

Togekiss- Navi
Wish
Yawn
Air Slash
Ancient Rock(I think that's the name, I'm jotting this down by memory. >>;; )

Should I change anyone on this team? Right now, my main concern is Monty since it seems like a lot of people are using physical attackers these days.

[Ed]

Okay dudes so i made a trick room team just for shits and giggles. Give me your honest opinion.

Bronzong
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
Nature: Brave

- Trick Room
- Earthquake
- Gyro Ball
- Explosion

Slowbro
Ability: Own Tempo
EVs: 252 HP, 252 Def, 4 SpD
Nature: Relaxed

-Trick Room
-Slack Off
-Psychic
-Ice Beam

Reuniclus
Ability: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 HP; 252 Def; 4 SpAtk
Nature: Bold

-Trick Room
-Psychic
-Focus Blast
-Calm Mind

Rampardos
Ability: Mold Breaker
EVs: 252HP; 252 Atk; 4 Def
Nature: Calm or something

-Zen Headbutt
-Stone Edge
-Earthquake
-Crunch

Eelektross
EVs: 252 HP 252 Atk 4 Def
Nature: Quiet

-Volt Charge
-Crunch
-Dragon Claw
-Rock Slide

Cloyster
Ability: Skill Link
EVs: 252 Atk 252 Sp 4 Hp
Nature: Jolly

- Shell Smash
- Icicle Spear
- Rock Blast
- Razor Shell

As you can see it's pretty straightforward, Cloyster is mostly there to go out and do some wreckage when the trick roomers die. I know i'm lacking in maybe a rapid spinner, a weather changing mon or maybe even a status inducing move, what do you think?

[evergreenWanderer]

Oh man, a Trick Room team. To me, it seems like you have everything covered. Maybe get rid of Ice Beam for Toxic for your Slowbro. But otherwise, it's pretty solid.

[Ed]

Hmm sounds good, Cloyster already has ice covered.

I was thinking of using shadow ball instead of trick room with reuniclus, would that be a waste of a slot? is sacrificing trick room for ghost coverage worth it? should i go with recover instead?

[evergreenWanderer]

Well, keep in mind this gen introduced the ability destroying stuff. (i.e. Simple Beam, Munny) So, covering a pokemon's weakness is worth it. Plus, Trick Room last for roughly five turns I believe. So having another pokemon not have Trick Room shouldn't be a bad thing.

Actually, here's a question: Are Weather teams worth it? (i.e. Teams based on Hail, Sandstorm, Rainy Day, and Sunny Day)

[Ed]

Of course they are, and even more now with Ninetales and Politoed's new abilities. The ability to ruin other's team by changing the weather to your favor it's a winning strategy. Like ruining sandstormers. God i hate sandstorm.

[evergreenWanderer]

Tyranitar is going to be spammed/seen a lot in tournaments. I can already tell. I may invest some time and try out a Rainy Day team for kicks. Speaking of which, I should probably get rid of Monty on my Random Matchup team. It seems like everyone and their grandma can insta kill Monty in one move now. *sighs* Gone are the days it was an impenetrable fortress of fluff and fat.

[Ed]

Oh yeah poor Snorlax just gets overwhelmed by all the new hard hitters like Conkeldurr, remember the good old days in gold and silver when curse lax was the king of the tiers? Good times.

[evergreenWanderer]

Oh man, I know. Curse lax was THE Snorlax to go with. And now thanks to poke like Conkledurr, it can't even stay in less then 2 moves.
*sighs* I'll need a new wall. Any suggestions? I'm thinking Blissey...but, eh. idk.

[weirdguy]

Chansey makes a tougher wall than blissey now with the evolite...

same with dusclops as opposed to dusknoir i think

may want to try wallin with cofagrigus, it is in the running for annoying asshole
