still not sure if you're grasping the point I'm attempting to make here; with smash it's something that's skill-related (and yes, I recognize some people won't be able to attain that still), but that's the the crux of my whole argument; IVs are in no way skill based and are almost entirely...

For GSC, IIRC, there is a way (IIR) to somewhat reliably breed Poke'mon to have a certain IV set, thus getting you the correct hidden power strength and type you want. in RS/DP/HGSS, it's mostly random; you can improve your odds with breeding, but not by much, at all. Unless you're extremely...

the primary difference here is that with brawl and the likes, it's something you can gain progress towards and will always slowly gain progress towards, even if it's by a tiny percentage. With IVs, this isn't the case; there's always a random factor that has to be contended with, meaning...

the thing is though, in most competitive environments, randomness is not a good, fair, or desirable thing....note how "hax" items/moves/etc. are banned in competitive rounds themselves because of this fact.

the thing here though, is that if you have a Poke'mon with a beneficial nature in, say speed, and you max out the EVs there too, if it has bad IVs for speed, it can end up being lower than a pokemon who has decent or max IVs in speed and max EVs for speed as well, effectively meaning that...

This is one thing I've never understood about Poke'mon; in RBY there was really no point to having them, at all, and in GSC (and onward) their only point is for changing hidden power's strength and type. What would you guys think of doing away with IVs all together? EVs (max of 510, of...

-Currently looking for either (a)a jolly ditto (b)jolly poke'mon from bug group (c)jolly poke'mon that also has synchronize.

I had a quick question about stickers. If I apply 2 of the exact same sticker, will the effects stack? for example, if I apply 2 suitcase stickers (+8 trophy drop), will the total effect be +16, or will only the first one count?

I haven't used any hammers yet, and there's only 9 challenges left....pretty much all the ones left are "only a matter of time" trophies; ie: play Brawl mode a lot (I figure if I play it long enough, I'll get all the stickers and songs)...the only one that's been a repeated challenge for me is...

I figured this out a while ago...I thought "well, so much for getting combos the hard way"

actually, the b-special never initiates for whatever reason, thus allowing you to slide back up to A and start the infinite-loop.

I already managed to get Petey Piranha, Rayquaza, and Tabuu's trophies, so that shouldn't be too much of an issue....one problem I ran into the last time I fought Ridley was that he ended up killing himself before a trophy stand appeared. I'll probably equip all the trophy stand stickers to Fox...

I'm a perfectionist and a "completitionist"...I feel I shouldn't be practicing and training for competitive play until I've mastered all the single-player aspects of the game....it also warrants bragging rights :p for the most part though, I feel this'll probably be the last Smash game (one...

I've already played through SSE once (100% completion). I missed most of the SSE trophies, as that was not my focus, at the time. None-the-less, I'm attempting to get every single trophy in the game (thus far, only 11 random trophies to go, 8 challenge trophies, and the rest are SSE...

Diddy: all the monkey noises he makes are really annoying Fox: Fox's voice has never been the same twice throughout the Star Fox series...they did manage to get Fox's voice actor (from Assault) to do his voice for Brawl, but it just doesn't work....at this point in time Fox is about 30 years...
