I don't actually own the pokes for this team. This is theory/simulated. I've been trolling simulators with this team for a while just to get a feel for how VGC works. I actually really like it; I want to make a goodstuff team later, but for now, I'm going to focus on improving this one...

I tried my hand at the VGC this weekend, for the first time ever, and it was hysterical. I loved it, even though I had basically a 5-mon team and had no clue what I was doing. Now, I'm here to actually make my own team and be prepared to actually wreck with it. Help me please? :D...

This was an interesting weekend for me. After a very uneventful and underwhelming start with Battle Roads being a complete flop for me, followed by a series of 4-2s and 3-3s at Cities that give way to one top 8, I felt so exhausted by both Pokemon and by finals that by the time this weekend...

Following a question regarding the timing of Sparkling Particles and poison damage, I wanted to clarify something. Isn't it always the case that, when a Pokemon would be both damaged and healed in between turns, those two things can take place in whatever order the Pokemon's owner likes? Is "at...

If I play Ditto, Transform it into a Pokemon, then attach Rescue Scarf to it, and it's knocked out, do I pick up Ditto as part of the Pokemon line?

Being a computer science major, this is a spot of shame for me, but I've just never been terribly knowledgable about hardware so whatever. When I graduate later this year, I'd like to pool some money and build a seriously powerful computer. At first I had no real justification other than BIG...

Hi hi hi hi hi hi hi. Edit: Couple of notes. Firstly, Serene Grace's wording is meant to imply that you must declare that you are using Serene Grace before flipping (when you would flip a coin... implying 'instead of flipping, do this'). Secondly, I'm not sure requiring Jirachi to be active is...

My opponent uses Pokedex to look at the top 5 cards of his deck, reorders them, then puts them back on top. He then plays Heavy Ball but declares that he is failing the search. Is he required to shuffle his deck (since he played a search card, and therefore, searched the deck) or can he choose...

Takes a lot of energy to power Psycho Defender, but it OHKOs any Mewtwo EX, and prevents them from OHKOing you in return. Thoughts?

I just hopped onto ebay and saw an auction for $150... overpriced? or has it gone up?

A friend and I sat down to try to build a competitive team last night. We had some fun playing each other with silly sets, but eventually hammered it down to this. I wanted to share it both for people to critique and offer suggestions to, but also for people to examine the process of competitive...

Anyone who thinks Scizor isn't a dominant force in the game probably has never seen one. My two favorite sets are Band and bulky SD (see below). I understand boosting is hard in VGC but I assume the Banded set is still pretty viable - what other sets work well in VGC? Is it more of a beatdown...

My form is probably sloppy. It's been a while since I've made one of these. Spiritomb-EX :: :psychic: 100 HP Ability: Negative Feedback Whenever you attach an energy from your hand to Spiritomb-EX, put 1 damage counter on 1 of your Pokemon. Your opponent puts 2 damage counters on one of their...

Everyone else is doing it. All I know is that this is where I want to start. Breloom @ Life Orb Ability: Technician EVs: 252 Attack 252 Speed (or HP?) Adamant Nature - Bullet Seed - Mach Punch - Spore - Swords Dance/Protect? Weavile @ Focus Sash Ability: Technician Pressure (I wish!!)...

Suppose I have Terrakion NVI benched, along with Sigilyph DRX, and Terrakion-EX active with three energy attached. I have two Fighting energy in-hand and use pump-up smash. Can I choose to 'target' Sigilyph, thereby NOT attaching energy from my hand, or do I have to choose a 'valid' target?

I knew Darkrai would drop because of tins, but I thought it would wait til they were actually RELEASED. Should I be suspicious of someone offering Darkrai EX (multiples of) for $10?

Hydreigon from Dragons Exalted: Hydreigon from Next Destinies: If I have DCE attached to Hydreigon ND, can I move it with Dark Trance?
