Which, by the way, is incredibly useful, and using white bloobers in place of Rip Van Fish would've been quite impossible without it if it's in the same level as Urchins. You should all go get Sprite Paint. It's awesome.

Well, it's not really THAT difficult. The hardest part, really, is predicting what your opponent will do next and responding in a way that give yourself an advantage... Which of course works in reverse... Which in ITSELF works in reverse... Say you know your opponent has a Dugtrio. You've got something out that would fall easily to the highly defensive Skarmory, which you know he also has. You figure he's probably going to switch in Skarmory, so you're going to switch in Magneton, which has Magnet Pull to prevent Skarmory from escaping since it's steel-type and Magneton could quickly one hit KO it. But then you think that he expects this and will switch in Dugtrio instead of Skarmory, and Dugtrio's Arena Trap prevents things that can't fly from switching out, therefore effectively trapping Magneton and getting rid of your main threat to Skarmory... But you've got a move on the poke you have out that's good against Dugtrio. But they know this, and using it if they switch in Skarm will ensure your defeat for some reason (I haven't thought up why yet ) So what do you do?

Of course, I haven't netbattled in a long time so my example is probably very outdated and counterable now.

I didn't say Dugtrio I had good defense, I said it can easily OHKO a Magneton which can't really defend against it, nor can it switch out. Back when Magneton was considered THE Skarm-killer, you saw a lot of Dugtrios but usage has gone down. Anyway. you seem to be thinking that RuSa is played exactly the same as GSC but with a few more changes. Curselax isn't too used unless usage has gone up since I left, but at any rate it's very easily stopped. In GSC I wouldn't be caught dead with an Aerodactyl; when I played it I used Umbreon/Skarmory/Misdreavus/Blissey/Cloyster/Donphan. Yeah, 3x Fighting weakness. ****ing sue me.

Well. Skarmory has very high Defense, gets Whirlwind to cancel stat uppers, gets Toxic (as a lot of things do ), is immune to Toxic (and all other poison moves, of course), and only Fire and Electric moves are strong against it.

Meanwhile, Blissey has very high Special Defense, and has ridiculously high HP. Only Fighting moves are strong against it, it gets Toxic, Softboiled, and Heal Bell. Yeah. HEAL BELL. Wakes up teammates who have used rest, and effectively counters Toxic. Plus, it cures Freeze and Burn. But mainly Freeze. <3. It also gets a host of other, less important moves that benefit the party (Light Screen to help Skarm, mainly).

The point of course is that they compliment each other very, very well, making them staples on many a GSC team. Blissey, though, is considered somewhat cheap, and Skarmory is as well to a lesser extent, but few are bothered by this. The point is that they're both very defensive and greatly aide teams they're in, and work wonderfully together.

Anyway, on to RBY: I always prefered Rapidash with Agility/Fire Spin/Toxic/Rest. Flamethrower and Fire Blast on the same thing is rather silly, though, as is any two moves of the same type that aren't used completely differently. I also used Zapdos with Fly/Drill Peck/Toxic/Thunderbolt and a host of other Toxic-using things

True, true, but if you see any fighting type you typically switch out, or make a quick judgement as to whether it can OHKO you or not and if it can't use Counter if you have it. Main problem relating to that is Misdreavus, with Mean Look + Perish Song.

Skarmory flies...it is weak against Ice and it should be weak against Rock...but the Rock against high defense might not do it much good.
But it is also steel-type, negating it's ice and rock weaknesses, and adding fire.

Gligar = way too slow to stand up to anything good, and one good Ice Beam and he is down for the fricking count. No way is he in any way good. Also Linoone can't get Earthquake It's also taken out by one good, fast pokemon. Altaria = weak to Aerodactyl, the world's most spammed physical sweeper... Plus it's got the nasty ice weakness.

For any wondering, my online team is as follows:


Tyranitar w/ Liechi Berry (Raises attack in a pinch)
Adamant (+Attack, -Special Attack)
Sandstream (Raises a never-ending sandstorm when it enters the battlefield)
Dragon Dance
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Aerial Ace
341 HP
403 Attack
278 Defense
200 Speed
203 Special Attack
236 Special Defense

Swampert w/ Leftovers (Raises HP constantly throughout match)
Brave (+Attack, -Speed)
Torrent (Raises the power of Water moves in a pinch)
Earthquake
Surf
Ice Beam
Roar
342 HP
350 Attack
216 Defense
140 Speed
269 Special Attack
216 Special Defense

Metagross w/ Liechi Berry (Raises attack in a pinch)
Adamant (+Attack, -Special Attack)
Clear body (Stats cannon be lowered, though they can be returned to normal through Haze or by switching out)
Agility
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Meteor Mash
301 HP
405 Attack
326 Defense
200 Speed
203 Special Attack
226 Special Defense

Aerodactyl w/ Choice Band (Multiplies attack, but the first move you use is the only move you can use until you switch out)
Jolly (+Speed, -Special Attack)
Rock Head (Negates recoil damage for this Pok

See and I think the only one I'd agree with in that line-up would be Tyranitar...although I did go through the motions of getting a Magneton up a while back...so...
It's a TSS (Toxic, Spikes, Sandstorm) team :p The focus is basically to whittle down the opponent to make it easier for Aerodactyl, Tyranitar, or Metagross (But usually Aerodactyl) to sweep. Of course, the one I use isn't exactly the best one ever... It's somewhat unconventional... In fact, a lot of people are better than I am... But, I'm better than most, I can guarantee that

Feh. In Ocarina of Time you learn a song from a guy who says he learned it from someone who looks like you seven years ago, then you go back in time to seven years ago and play it for him in order to make the windmill speed up to drain the well.

My point is that time-related puzzles in Zelda don't make sense.

It doesn't matter (SA) >>> It doesn't matter (SA2).

Also, Shadow's theme is "Throw it all away." And it's admittedly good

And Live and Learn is the worst of the theme songs Open Your Heart > What I'm Made Of > Sonic Heroes > Live and Learn.

Alright, but you just said that...

Anyway, that particular team I just mentioned is just a test, I'm testing all sorts of crazy ideas, and that one didn't pan out too well so I dropped it ;-; Still it's easily better than your average every-day real life team. This new one is Ninjask/Skarmory/Medicham/Aerodactyl/Blissey/Metagross.
