Introduction I stepped away from playing competitively for a couple years around the time Platnium came out, but I have had some more time on my hands the past couple months so I figured it would be fun to give Pokemon a shot again. I quickly familiarized myself with all of the changes in Black...

One of the University of Chicago's college essay prompts has really interested me lately. Not only because I am going to apply in the coming months but also because it is just so intriguing. The prompt is very simple. "Find X" or "Define X". Obviously, this is the University of Chicago's way of...

My team is 2/3 stall, 1/3 offense. I chose this over a standard stall team for one reason. Whenever I play with a pure stall team, I manage to get all of their Pokemon down to ridiculously low amounts of health but can never kill them off. The lack of an adequate revenge killer also bothers me...

Curved Line Comedy is a youtube channel that was created just a couple weeks ago but has expanded to have it's own website! It is hard to describe so rather than try, I recommend that you check it out yourself and tell me what you think! Of course, I wish that you subscribe if you like it, but...

I am not a photoshop expert or artist by any means, but I have made a couple youtube backgrounds and I was wondering what you, who are significantly better artists, think and which kind of constructive criticism you could give: http://www.youtube.com/user/CurvedLineComedy...

It has been about a year since I played in the Uber tier. I got back into it a week ago and the metagame hadn't changed all that much. It quickly got interested in it again and tested many different teams, but this one appears to be the most successful for me so far. I am convinced it could use...

http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/gorebyss I have been using this set for three days on my Rain Dance team and this has to be one of the best sets I have ever used. More than half my games have ended in a Gorebyss Sweep. I also wrote the sentence " The first is Gorebyss' ability to take on and...

Original Anaysis: http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/luvdisc Luvdisc is often joked about so I looked at it more closely and found that it wouldn't be too bad with Choice Specs. Luvdisc is the second fastest Swift Swimmer in NU which makes it a reliable revenge killer on Rain Dance teams...

I like to play fast. I have tried out stall teams and find my own patience stalling out before the opponent's Pokemon. I have tried balance, but I can't ever seem to get the balance right. I have even gone as far as to try strategies like Baton Pass teams and even Hail Teams. This team has...

This is my first ever warstory so try to keep that in mind as you read it. I have read plenty of warstories though so I hope that has helped me. muna's team: Fatalist's team: Fatalist's moves will look like this. muna's moves will look like this. other text will look like this. Comments...

In the poll I meant to rate it out of 5. Not 1/5. Rate it whatever you think is appropriate! Thanks! The team at a glance: The main idea of the team is to hurt the opponent as badly as I can while trying to sustain minimal damage myself through my resistances. Every weakness that a...

2 RMTs in One! I have a RMT for both a Battle Tower team and a Battle Castle team. You can rate just one or both. Any help is appreciated. Battle Tower I want to be the very best that no one ever was. To catch them was my real test. To train them was my cause. I want to go for a 400+ win...

I hadn't really considered Screeners to be that important to me in the past. I thought wasting 1/6 of your team for a Pokemon that will only be effectively using two moves was one of the worst ideas in the game until I tried it. I present: Behind the Screens (bad pun definitely intended). The...

I admit that I haven't even beaten the Elite 4 in Platinum and this team has never been tested, but before I go through the trouble of actually obtaining these, I thought putting this up here on Smogon might be useful. The team at a Glance: This is obviously a very offensive team. The sole...

I was looking for a lead that wasn't called Metagross and I came upon this lead. It has the ability to beat most common leads and is an effective lead itself. It has problems with Swampert, Trick Jirachi, and Mamoswine leads. Apart from those it has been very solid and has been defeating the...

Guitar Hero Metallica was finally released today, the week after Platinum hit the US. I decided to make a Guitar Hero themed RMT in honor of it. The team at a glance: The main idea of the team is to hurt the opponent as badly as I can while trying to sustain minimal damage myself through...

I am gonna get back into wifi (after a long period of using shoddy exclusively) and I want to see what corrections you can make to this team before I go through the trouble of obtaining all of these in game. The team at a glance: The main idea of the team is to hurt the opponent as badly as...
