People setting up deck/team 'garages' are generally a lousy idea, and in my moderating experience only lead to turf wars, with groups of so-called 'experts' attacking each other's advice rather than helping people who are asking for help.

Why should people have to post their team in YOUR thread to get your opinion?

All that leads to is other people setting themselves up as self-declared 'experts', and members posting the SAME deck/team in a bunch of threads in order to get opinions from multiple 'fixers'.

It's a lot more efficient for people to make their OWN thread and anyone who cares to reply can reply.

Do NOT change the format of these forums: people start their OWN threads, and those who wish to comment, can. Set up your 'team', but do NOT set up a 'garage' thread; comment in the threads people start for rating their teams.

Im jus trying to cut down the amount f help topics, that seem to be so common, and if any turf wars insue rest assured I personally will handle them, now back to the raters all raters must take a test its not hard, but it's something I made in my spare time, jus copy, and paste the questions. To be a rater you must answer 7/10 correctly.

1. What is wrong with this moveset?
Gyarados@Petaya
Modest:Intimidate
252 Attack 252 Sp.Atk 6 Speed
Flamethrower
Hyper Beam
Surf
Thunderbolt

2. Where do you catch Mew,Lati@s the Regis, Deoxys,Ho-oh, and Lugia.

3. Whos better Groudon, or Kyogre?

4. Make a suitable moveset for Tyrannitar, Dragonite, and Salamence aside from the standard.

5.Name the 7 Battle Frontier.

6. Which moveset is the best?overall
Pikachu@Light Ball
Timid:Static
252 Speed 252 Sp.Atk 6 HP
Surf
HP Ice
Thunderbolt
Substitute

Pikachu@Leftovers
Hasty:Static
252 Attack 252 Speed 6 Sp.Atk
Focus Punch

7.In Emerald these berries reduce which stat?
Pomeg Berry -
Kelpsy Berry -
Qualot Berry -
Hondew Berry -
Grepa Berry -
Tamato Berry-

8. Describe briefly what IVs, and EVs are.

9. What in gods name is Tyranniboah, and why is he so good?

10. To Be Announced
 
There's NOTHING wrong with the number of topics asking for help in this forum.

I'm not sure just who you think you are, but "you" won't be "taking care" of any conflicts arising in the forum: the mods/admins will.

If you'd like to make your own rules, perhaps you should set up your OWN forum and you can run it any way you want; the PokéGym will be run by the rules set up by Team Compendium up in the Announcements forum.

You have too many Sweepers. Sand Stream will eat them alive. Take out Armaldo and put in Blissey or Celebi. For Sceptile, after Endure+Endeavor, you are likely KOed. But the rest of your team are all horrifically slow, thus giving the other poke a chance to survive or leave a big dent in your next poke. You also need some sort of Rapid Spinner and Spike Protector. I suggest Claydol and Dusclops, respectively.
Overall, looks good. :wink:
 
Not unless it's some sort of tourny/battle frontier thing. So yes everyone can have Leftys. And CR the point is that Sceptile DOES get KOed. Then I bring up Boah and Sand Stream = KO their 1 HP. And Armaldo plays a key part in Knocking Off their Leftys so Sand Stream as more effect. But I do like the Claydol idea. Thnx!

EDIT: Okay I thought of taking out Umbreon because if someone Subs it screws me. Put in Claydol. But I have a question. I was thinking of putting Sceppy/Skarm up first and can't decide. Wich one is better first? Thnx!
