  1. The Fysical Phitness Thread

    The deadlift primarily works the lower back so although it does work the quads, hams, glutes, upper back, forearms, etc... the lower back takes most of the work or at least you feel it most in the lower back. My advice is to just keep reading up on form online and wear a belt. The extra...

  2. Differences in Competitive Play between WiFi and Shoddy

    tl;dr: the more competitive battlers are, for the most part, on shoddy

  3. Team Building

    Making a team based on an end game sweeper just because you lost to it once or sounded good on paper can definitely lead you down the wrong path. Certain pokemon just aren't compatible with the metagame. It's also about key resistances to fit the metagame... having no Grass or Psychic resist in...

  6. What UU pokemon are least common BUT have potential?

    Tangrowth is perfect for heavy stall teams: Leech Seed/Giga Drain/Knock Off/Earthquake. Tangrowth takes physical hits, Chansey takes special hits. Leech Seed and Knock Off are also great for taking on almost ANY threat. You can't counter every pokemon, but a seeded pokemon with no item AND with...

  7. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer - mark 22 (READ THE OP)

    Take this situation: Lugia uses Toxic against a Mew with Lum Berry and Synchronize. Does the Synchronize go before the Lum Berry and Lugia is poisoned but Mew is not, or are neither of them poisoned?

  8. Smogon Shoddy Server Statistics - January 2010

    Gallade was used 24 times in a tier where there were 12,194 battles. I don't think you should bother looking at what some nub did >_<. It's like, does anyone really care that Wormadam was used once but with a moveset of Giga Impact/Thief/Signal Beam/String Shot?

  9. New and 'creative' moveset/EV spread thread - UU Edition

    I don't think the set needs any speed at all. Extra Speed cannot outspeed any extra Taunters, and fast offensive pokemon can be handled with Torment/Protect and Acupressure boosts. Because this set has no recovery outside of Black Sludge, and does not have the extra bulkiness Substitute gives...

  10. Team Ethics

    Anything goes during a battle IMO, whether it's copying someone's team (I do it frequently and adjust it as I go), copying strategies, deliberately going for hax (you have no way to kill, go for an ice beam freeze!), and using the top pokemon of the tiers. I don't think a lot of people on smogon...

  17. KISS-- An OU Warstory

    Amazing battle and predictions, you were both playing at the top of your game. Really illustrates competitive battling and how battles can show a player's skills and prediction, at the very least for a longer amount of time, without entry hazards (props for keeping up the pressure to prevent...

    Great warstory and impressive writing. I LOVE all the comments and how you really vividly described all the options and what was going through your head. Edough323 is the man.
