I actually like Dry Skin Jynx. Now things like Milotic won't be able to do anything to it (assuming they both stay UU).

Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.

You did it wrong. You were supposed to say, "Welcome to Pokemon... in America" with an American flag wrapped around your head.
Which one is waru? And I've always loved tyranitar I hope it doesn't get outplayed :(
^This. I can't find an item listing anywhere.

I'm sorry, but I just don't believe that. There has to be some way of transporting your old items into the newer games. They'll figure it out eventually. Even if their isn't a way to do it "legally", I'm sure smogon would sanction the use of AR to get the old items back (assuming there are codes for it, which I'm sure their will be). The metagame just wouldn't be the same without them.
The vast majority of pokemon can learn rest though tm and level up. Assuming the new poke agirudaa (#617) can learn rest, it becomes the fastest recoverer there is with a base speed of 145 and hydration. The only pokemon capable of out speeding it(without a choice scarf) are ninjask and deoxys. It's defensive stats are deplorable, however it's SpA is average. It wouldn't be bad with some with a better movepool then the one serebii says it has. Though tms haven't been factored into any pokemon yet.

I know this is just wishful thinking, but wouldn't it be awesome if there was at least two (fighting type got 2, what's up with that??) priority attacks for every move type. One from the physical side and one from the special side, respectively. It would balance the metagame a lot more. After all, scizor can't have all the fun in OU :-)
The only loss would be the event berries. Everything else will probably still be findable in the game, or dream world.
Shoot, Dream World could have event berries in it for all we know.
Ya, seriously, I would like to see that, especially since priority moves will be more important in this new gen.
No one's excited Heracross got Earthquake Spiral? lol He could be pretty dangerous late game with a scarf.
Non of the Pseudo Legendaries have had their Dream World abilities revealed. Apparently they all have new abilities. This scares me. It would be crazy if they all got booted.
I'm not speculating the metagame, I'm just saying.

Waru is the fully evolved Dark/Ground Crocodile with Earthquake Spiral. If it gets Pursuit, it is virtually guaranteed to take over Tyranitar's Scarfer job. (It has an Attack of 117 and a Speed of 92.)
I just heard that random wifi matches don't follow the BT rules but allow the legendaries that were previous banned in BT battles of the former generations (so I would assume the gen 5 legendaries are also allowed). Can anyone confirm this at this point (has anyone tried this yet?) If that's true, random matches are going to be exactly like PBR -_-
Metagross is genderless.

While we're at it, why don't we give him a priority move too??
Apparently it halves all of the stats if the pokemon's HP drops below 50%
Just a question. Have you stopped to think that Trick Room Usage may rise to astronomical levels? Most of the new threats slow as hell.
@M Blade: Maybe something to fuck up with it, just like Slaking and Regigigas.
