Make some defensive megas that will neither not get used (Sableye) or get banned (Diancie?). Since they've gone on a Magic Bounce binge, do the same with Regenerator. 2. This is for gen 7, but REALLY focus on making more, more creative defensive abilities to give new Pokémon and megas, and more moves to expand the options of defensive Pokémon. Just giving Pokémon defensive stat spreads won't accomplish much. I mean, despite the increased emphasis on defensive stats among gen 6 Pokémon, only Sylveon is enjoying some degree of success. Even Goodra isn't that good, and Florges has no reason to exist anywhere Sylveon can be found.Slowflakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18090675773915536700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-43413296400528239352014-08-16T22:58:22.091-04:002014-08-16T22:58:22.091-04:00Oh, and Landorus...Oh, and Landorus...Ness Prowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17515380966775058704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-70114104864270431932014-08-16T22:57:43.703-04:002014-08-16T22:57:43.703-04:00Hm?

What happened to casuals wanting Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Suicune, Raikou, Entei, Regirock, Registeel, Regice, Regigigas, Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf, Cresselia, Heatran, Terrakion, Cobalion, Virizion, Latios, Latias, Tornadus, and Thundurus banned because they're Legendaries. Hell, they'd absolutely love hearing about Kyurem, Black Kyurem, and Zygarde. Granted, GameFAQS and consistency go about as well together as relish and peanut butter, but someone actually thinks Rayquaza isn't broken just because most Ice moves can take it out?...Ness Prowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17515380966775058704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-36606488583619011022014-08-16T21:41:24.582-04:002014-08-16T21:41:24.582-04:00Hey, I'm not blaming anyone, and I'm not b...Hey, I'm not blaming anyone, and I'm not broadly generalizing. I'm saying people who hate stall just for the sake of hating stall tick me off, not that all offensive players have that kind of philosophy.<br /><br />Anyway, I think nerfing special moves was a band-aid solution at best, but it was still better than doing nothing. Problem is, now they HAVE to do the same for physical moves.Slowflakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18090675773915536700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-64059531725710584512014-08-16T21:16:49.096-04:002014-08-16T21:16:49.096-04:00I definitely haven't been keeping up with the ...I definitely haven't been keeping up with the Competitive Pokemon community recently but wow, what basis do these people have for wanting a banAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-40499426472621945532014-08-16T19:52:40.675-04:002014-08-16T19:52:40.675-04:00*qualified for the finals*qualified for the finalsSlowflakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18090675773915536700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-27040449997230751362014-08-16T18:14:04.731-04:002014-08-16T18:14:04.731-04:00On a related note, Showdown's random team gene...On a related note, Showdown's random team generator sometimes gives Fan Rotom an Air Balloon.<br />Who says competitive players don't have a sense of humor?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03524099938311797289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-71409082445894695982014-08-16T16:49:35.381-04:002014-08-16T16:49:35.381-04:00Well, Pachirisu guy qualified for the single-elimi...Well, Pachirisu guy qualified for the single-elimination phase.
