Congratulations on your streak! It's very nice to see someone (other than the amazing dgice ofc) put so much effort and time into the Palace. It seems like I definitely underestimated how effective Substitute can be in that facility (although tbh it didn't even enter my mind to use it when I did...

Congratulations Actaeon !!!

On the comparison of the pokemon slot machines to pachinko machines, it might be worth noting that at least in FR/LG (and I assume also in the original Gen 1 games because I don't see why they would bother changing that), the slot machines in Celadon have a positive expected value for the player...

Your current team setup looks like a "classic goodstuff" approach that relies on offensive/defensive synergy between its team members and Kommo-o already gave you some pretty solid advice on improving it, so maybe what I'm about to suggest isn't your cup of tea at all in terms of strategy. If...

Thanks for taking the time to do all this adminstrative stuff! Stuff that I would like to see linked somewhere in the OP: Actaeon's Tower Doubles teams Actaeon's Monotype teams Honestly all of Actaeon's teams, but especially the stuff that is probably the best we've got for its respective...

Thanks a lot! You're pretty much spot on about the threats; two Clear Body mons in the first two slots are very difficult to handle indeed and you kind of have to hope that one of them is a set that can be PP stalled reasonably fast (Mono Attacking Registeel for example). Everything that only...

:Smeargle: :Linoone: :Furret: The not so normal Acupressure Disclaimer: The following is not my submission for Challenge #4 (as should be obvious from the movesets), but another team I've been working on the past few days. Introduction When Adedede mentioned my Assist team in his last post, I...

I really like your approach; it's a neat idea to use Torment and good type synergies to abuse the dumb AI. However, since Skarmory cannot learn Torment except by using the TM, the team doesn't conform to the rules of the challenge. The only Pokemon that learns Torment by level-up in Gen 3 is...

Happy that you're participating :) The challenge is supposed to be as accessible as possible; so no worries if you caught something with above average IVs. Ideally (but this is not required at all) you should provide a reasoning why your team works no matter the IVs (which basically means with...

Battle Frontier Challenge #4: A fulfilled childhood Its the year 2021: while cleaning up your basement, you find your old dusty Gameboy Advance. It still has the cartridge of your favorite childhood game inserted: Pokemon Emerald. After charging it, it surprisingly still starts up and you are...

Hi, I haven't posted here in a long time, but I've been reading and enjoying the new stuff all of you are coming up with. And congrats Adedede for the 3k milestone :) I've been going through all my old hard drives in the past few days and have found this little tool I made six years ago...

Alright, after considering all the feedback, here is the definitve ruleset for the Generation Gap Challenge If you want to sign-up, send me a DM confirming your participation until Sunday, 7th March 8 PM GMT where you also include which of the three generations you'd prefer to play; you can...

I think your tierlist will be fine as well, totally forgot about that one :) But I do think that we need some kind of banlist: As an example in Gen 3, my point wasn't that teams including Latios would be too strong by themselves (because as you pointed out they might have to rely on weaker...

Thanks for the feedback, Actaeon and Kommo-o. I tried to explain some of my choices better below, but if you (or someone else) doesn't agree with it or has some other suggestions for the ruleset I'm of course happy to listen and consider them. I definitely see the benefit of changing the...

Hi guys, I haven't been too active for a while because of some important exams/papers I needed to do in real life. I still tried to read the posts here from time to time and have been really enjoying the inceased activity in the last few weeks, especially all the new users taking on the Gen 3...
