Celebi's been a decent OU Pokemon for the past 3 generations straight, though, even with its typing.

Anyways, just gonna post this little tourney idea for anyone whose interested:

Hoenn Conformed

• Only Pokemon evolution lines belonging to National Pokedex #s 252-386 are allowed
• 4v4 Doubles Format, with best 2 out of 3 battles determining the winner
• Single Elimination Tournament with 8 people (may increase to 16 if enough are interested)
• Participants will be required to post battle video codes to confirm their wins/losses
• Only Pokemon and movesets/items that are natively available in-game in Pokemon X & Y and Friend Safari are allowed, meaning anything from Pokemon Bank or Events are not allowed.
• Sleep Clause will be in effect
• The ability Moody is banned
• The move Dark Void is banned (nothing that's allowed learns it anyway, so hah)
• Duplicate Items are allowed
• Winner will receive a 5 IV Pokemon of their choice, as long as said Pokemon can be bred.

Just for reference, here is the list of Pokemon that will be allowed. Bold will indicate Pokemon with a Mega Evolution while Italics indicate a Pokemon that is allowed due to being part of an evolutionary line native to Hoenn:

• Mightyena
• Linoone
• Beautifly
• Dustox
• Ludicolo
• Shiftry
• Swellow
• Pelipper
• Gardevoir
• Gallade
• Masquerain
• Breloom
• Ninjask
• Shedinja
• Exploud
• Hariyama
• Azumarill
• Probopass
• Delcatty
• Sableye
• Mawile
• Aggron
• Medicham
• Manectric
• Plusle
• Minun
• Volbeat
• Illumise
• Roserade
• Swalot
• Sharpedo
• Wailord
• Camerupt
• Torkoal
• Grumpig
• Spinda
• Flygon
• Cacturne
• Altaria
• Zangoose
• Seviper
• Lunatone
• Solrock
• Whiscash
• Crawdaunt
• Cradily
• Armaldo
• Keckleon
• Banette
• Dusknoir
• Tropius
• Chimecho
• Absol
• Wobbuffet
• Glalie
• Froslass
• Huntail
• Gorebyss
• Relicanth
• Luvdisc
• Salamence
• Metagross

So Pokebank comes with a Celebi download that lasts until September 30th, which comes with.... a clone of False Swipe.

Of all the moves to clone, why False Swipe?

Oh really? Have at you, then:

Scratch what I said about Foul Play until December 27th, since I forgot it the only way Umbreon can get it it through Gen 5 move tutor. And Grass usually has perfect synergy with Water and Fire (not to mention Leafeon has physical bulk as well).

I'm sure Rice is on another level compared to me. He's competitive and all that :P

The battle you had with Noob tells me otherwise. I think you might have a fair chance against me, especially considering you have a Reuniclus.

Anyway, Noob, another observation I made was that your team tends to lean towards special attacks, and not so much physical attacks outside of Flareon. If your Flareon has Guts, I'd probably go for Toxic Orb and Facade, otherwise a Choice Band set might work to at least give it some wallbreaking potential. Since it looks like you're going for Eevee themed team, Leafeon might suit your fancy, especially since it can outspeed Tyranitar and hit it hard on the physical side.

Oh and your Umbreon would do wonders with Taunt over Psychic to shut down Pokemon that try to set up on it like Skarmory. Foul Play over Dark Pulse would be a nice option too.

I need to battle Rice more.

As soon as I get that Ferroseed from him. :V

Just got an impish Onix to breed with so give it some time... you'll have it this week.

Grass Knot on Espeon against Tyranitar is still a risky move, since you still only kill it in 4 hits while Tyranitar gets the KO with Crunch.

Also, Aqua Ring generally isnt that great of a move since it locks you unable to switch, as evidenced in that battle. Wish with Protect would generally be a much more effective move, plus gives your team healing support. Its an egg move, but I have plenty of Eevees with Wish if you want me to hook you up with one.

Now to just wait for Matt to get online so I can battle him :p

Battle with noob:

K85W-WWWW-WWW3-NL8X

Couple of questionable plays there. Would have made more sense to switch in Jolteon against Skarmory instead of keeping Umbreon in, despite the flinchhax. Also Tyranitar in sandstorm is gonna take very little damage from a non-stab Dazzling Geam, just keep that in mind.

Added everyone here, PM me if I missed you

also dunno why I didnt post this here before but...

4527-8527-5030

added everyone on this thread, so if I missed anyone let me know

The whole purpose of that Slowbro set is to deliberately troll people and force them to forfeit, it shouldnt be considered serious in any way possible.

Mega Aggron probably wont be enough to make the OU cut. It has no form of recovery outside of Rest, forcing it to use Sleep Talk as well just to keep up. Even with max SpDef investment, special attacks are still an issue for it, not to mention it also takes away from its massive physical bulk, which can mean the difference between a 2HKO and a 3HKO. Even with max defense investment to tank hits, Mega Aggron's offensive presence becomes severely hampered, so it won't be able to do much back. The best it can do is some kind of Adamant set with max HP and the rest split between its attack and defense, running Dragon Tail, Iron Head/Heavy Slam, Rest, and Sleep Talk, makes for an effective set especially with entry hazards.

Not saying MegaAggron isnt any good, it just has its own flaws that hold it back. At best it'll be high UU.

What about Special Attack? Mega Lucario can still have high Special Attack and can still easily take out Mega Kangaskhan in one blow with Aura Sphere if the defender wasn't EV trained for Sp. Def. You're right about the defenses Mega Lucario have because 2 Earthquakes/Brick Breaks/Fire Punches/Low Kicks are enough to defeat it.

Where are you getting these damage calculations from? +2 Earthquake from MegaKangaskhan is a clear OHKO on MegaLucario:

252(+2) MegaKangaskhan Earthquake vs 0 HP / 0 Def MegaLucario:

472~556 + 243~286 (715~842) (254.45%~299.64%)

In other news:

New patch

Here's the QR code

RIP Battle Analyzer, you will NOT be missed.

Theres also Sableye, Cofagrigus, Eviolite Dusclops, Rocky Helmet Ferrothorn, and Rocky Helmet Rough Skin Garchomp, all of which are shaky checks at best and all of which require you to sacrifice the Pokemon every time MegaKangaskhan gets the stat boost. In fact, the mere fact that this thing is forcing people to use Rocky Helmet at all is just plain ridiculous, as Ferrothorn drastically loses its defensive capabilities without Leftovers and Garchomp loses the extra damage from Life Orb, Choice Band, and Garchompinite that makes them both effective Pokemon. Essentially, youre giving up these two Pokemon's capabilities to wall/attack over 10+ Pokemon SOLELY because of MegaKangaskhan.

Now compare this to MegaLucario who, as OP and broken as some people claim it is, is much more manageable than MegaKangaskhan. Copypasta from the Guild thread:

MegaLucario at least has its frailty and 4 moveslot syndrome to keep it in check. Taking swords dance Megacario into account: Running Close Combat, Bullet Punch, and Crunch? Stopped by Talonflame, Gliscor, and Therian Landorus. Running Close Combat, Bullet Punch, and Extremespeed? Stopped by Aegislash and Therian Landorus. Running Close Combat, Bullet Punch, and Ice Punch? Stopped by Aegislash, Chandelure, and Gyarados. Running Close Combat, Extremespeed, and Ice Punch? Stopped by Gengar, Aegislash, and Sableye. Running Close Combat, Ice Punch, and Crunch? Stopped by Talonflame and Mach Punch users. Not to mention certain scarfed Pokemon like Garchomp can survive a +2 Extremespeed or +2 Bullet Punch even with no HP or defense investment and revenge kill it. I know Scarfchomp useage has died down this gen but it should still be noted. Even with +2 Close Combat doing over 50% damage to Gliscor and Talonflame, Gliscor can both OHKO back after the defense drop and Talonflame can 2HKO at worst with Flare Blitz followed by Priority Brave Bird if MegaLuke is lacking XSpeed. Any way you look at it, you don't have anywhere NEAR this amount of luxury against MegaKangaskhan.

Yes, MegaLucario does carry the moves necessary to take out all of the Pokemon that check/counter it, but he cannot run all of them at once without sacrificing Close Combat and/or Swords Dance, which makes him much easier to handle in those cases. Also, unlike MegaLucario, MegaKangaskhan is nowhere near as frail and can take a hit or two.

Any MegaKangaskhan user who willingly leaves it in against a full health MegaLucario has no idea how to use MegaKangaskhan properly and is just asking for a loss. Conversely, any MegaLucario user who switches it in against a +2 MegaKangaskhan, let alone anything, hoping to take a resisted hit is also asking for a loss. Lucario is frail even with the Mega evolution and steel typing, which has so far been the only thing holding it back from suffering the same fate as MegaGengar and eventually MegaKangaskhan. The only effective way to switch MegaLucario in is after a KO or through a slower Volt Switch / U-turn user.

and how exactly did a MegaKangaskhan get burned by a Flareon when it not only outspeeds Flareon, but also OHKOs with a +2 Return?

Being a single mother of one sure is hard, isnt it?

Tldr version: Mega Kangaskhan is about to get banned

in 95% of cases, having 6 IVs in all stats is pretty unnecessary (Blissey isn't going to be using physical attacks any time soon). 5 IVs is enough in most cases. You're only giving yourself extra work by aiming for that 1 in 32 chance of an extra max IV, since only a max of 5 IVs can be passed down at any time.

Also, plenty of people would be willing to accept stuff with egg moves in exchange for spare dittos. Hell, even Pokemon with 2 or 3 max IV that you get as a side result of breeding are fair game. Only took me about 5 hours max just to get 4 Dittos with the IVs that I needed, and that was starting from scratch.

It's still not as easy... yet. You need Perfect IV Dittos for that process to work very easily.

A 6 IV Ditto isn't necessary at all. A minimum of 3 Dittos with 2 IVs each is more than enough, as long as you have the 5 IVs that you want to pass down. Offer stuff on gts for a level 21-30 Ditto and people will hook you up with a few spares to get you started. After that, its just your Everstone and Destiny Knot and a few round trips back and forth to Kiloude City.

Well... I know PokeGen was one way to get perfect Pokemon within minutes but  a program to show your opponent's moves and Pokemon and what the other player selected!? Uh-uh! No! Not happening with me! Nintendo HAVE to do something about that! Now THAT'S what I call cheating! 

They already disabled Ratings battles in Battle Spot, so they are aware of the issue. And quite honestly, Pokegen has become obsolete considering how easy it is to breed Pokemon with max IVs this gen. The only real uses I can see for it now is for Gen 3-5 legendaries and Pokemon that need Gen 3-5 move tutors.

So for those of you who weren't already aware:

Basically an exploit was released a few weeks ago that allows you to set up your PC as a 3DS wifi hotspot and monitor all unencrypted traffic that goes in and out of your 3DS, including what decisions your opponent makes in wifi battles such as switching or what attacks they choose as they make them.

Fortunately, some good samaritan has released this little fix to counter it until Nintendo fixes their shit implements wifi encryption into the 3ds:

AAAAAAAHHHH!!!!! Dragon/Fairy!? Had a strong feeling they were gonna do something like that but for LATIAS!? She's just as OP as Latios in Mega Form!

All calculations assume MegaLatias with full health with Multiscale active, Scizor with Technician, and Azumarill with Huge Power, both at level 100 with max IVs in all stats.

Yeah, MegaLatias is still gonna run from Scizor and Azumarill, even with the Multiscale. Still a frightening Pokemon though.

Holy fucking shit...

For the record, Draco Meteor from max investment MegaLatios hits Blissey for 55% damage minimum, and its Psyshock hits x1.1 as hard as MegaMewtwo Y's Psystrike with identical investment.

Aerodactyl's should be in the Ambrette Town Lab. Gyarados's is in Couriway Town just in front of the waterfall.

No, if you want to be covered with milk and be fucked by me.

Kinky...
