I need to do some home work, I'll PM you around 9:00 GMT for the trade, kk?

 

@Overheat: The only real advantage multi-type Pokemon get is two STABs, that's about it.

[Queen-Dragoon]

Then again, type combos like Bug/Steel or Ghost/Poison are gifts from god! :D

[J123]

Scizor and Gengga iz good exampoolzes.

[Felix]

Meh Poison STAB is bad coverage and can be by betterd by other moves Gengar learns. Scizor is a great Pokemon but its draw is a Tech STAB Bullet Punch, not its Bug STAB. All the Bug/Steel combo does is leave a gaping hole for 4* effective Fire moves.

No. Double-types come with their advantages and disadvantages:

 

Advantages

 

Dual-STAB

4x Resistance

Better Type Coverage

Resistant to more Types

 

Disadvantage

 

4x Weakness

Weaker to more Types

Some Double-Types are just dead weight (like Poison on Gengar, it could have used Electric better)

:( I can't get on Shoddy :( I'm trying the advanced thing but it still isn't working:( I really wanted to try my newest team too.

[Dark]

Wow, three :('s. This is serious. You wanna train on my team? I'll put together a random string of six EVs I own (which still make up a team, just not MY team) and try to pwn you.

[Felix]

A side from the fact you wouldn't, I'd rather try to log on to Shoddy...:(:(:(

[Dark]

Wow, really full of yourself, eh? =D

 

Fine, whatever. I'll be on PC, waiting for Round 2 to start.

off topic:DOES ANYONE HAVE A SHINEY CHARIZARD!??!!??!?!?!?

 

On Topic:I dont wanna go on shodey, to much downloading , might screw up my computer

[Slash]

I have shoddy but I suck at EV/IVing so everybody beats me. Therefor I do not go on very much =P

[Felix]

@Slash: WTF, how can you suck at EVs/IVs on Shoddy? You type in the EVs/IVs you want:/

 

@The Night Rider: You don't have to download it. So long as you've got Java you're solid.

[Slash]

I dont know how to do them right....

[Silver The Hedgehog]

oh, well I dont have that >.>

and I really want a shiney charizard

@nd wouldnt that be awsome if a shiney chaizars flame was blue?

[Felix]

^Download Java, it's one of those things everybody has; it's like Google.

 

I dont know how to do them right....

 

lol, use this site and read a tone of it, http://www.smogon.com

Training for a 5K run soon. My coach recommends an hour of WiiFit, a mile JOG every day, 50 crunches and 10 push-ups. So far, I'm perfect 2 out of 2 days. ^_^

 

Also, it's making me lose weight. I dun wanna. My goal is actually to gain like 1 pound every week, but burn off 1 pound every week. =)

[Felix]

WTF, 5K? That's insane.

 

Anyway as a Pokemon related topic, I need a Ghost type Special orientated Pokemon. I was thinking Spiritomb or Mismagius. RotomH is an option but I've tried it and I don't like it.

[Silver The Hedgehog]

Ya I wouldnt go with rotom =/ but I like the Idea of spiritom!

[Slash]

Hey Felix, I'll give you 50 points if you can find me an exact page that shows me how to do it xD

[Felix]

Rotom is actually a pretty cool guy, it's just that what he does is not the job I want him for.

 

@Slash: Go on "Strategy" then click on "Articles" to the left, everything competitive Pokemon related is there.

[Silver The Hedgehog]

I know I like the overheat version but I think spirtomb is better then mismanguis and rotom
