What a time for me to return here. Yay!

So, we're basically doing RTP's again(didn't read too much), in a sense? That's cool.
It should be for the main Pokemon though, so there isn't a billion 200+ sticky's. Main meaning OU people like Blissey, Infernape, etc.
I'd have there main movesets in the beginning, and others come after it. Sorry if this was all said, el oh el.
This is cool. Do we need permission to do a Pokemon or no?


By the way, I got a new RMT guys! Check it out please.
We need "Overused" and "Underused" Subforums.

Great idea!
I don't think I know enough about Pokemon to contribute, but it'll be interesting to read.

OK obviously no one has any arguments against this so I see no reason to bump this up and get a discussion on the format we will use.

TBH I hate the smogon format and I would like this format here:

[Name of Set]
Pokemon Name @ Item
Ability: Nature
EVs
Move 1
Move 2
Move 3
Move 4

That's what I generally post in RMTs. It's very simple, easy to look at, and gives you the important information. I think we should just post a description of the set exactly like how I'm doing it here, explaining what about the set makes it unique from any other pokemon trying to do the set, how to use the set well, maybe what it performs well with. Or maybe we can do a different Category for that kind of stuff. The moves should be listed in order of importance.

[Extra Options]
This is exactly what the title suggests: options available to it, but possibly it is overshadowed by other options, or is just too gimmicky overall to warrant its own set.

[EVs]
This is where we would describe how to EV the pokemon, especially since newer players tend to have problems with that sort of thing.

[Troublesome Pokemon]
Here is where we list counters, or even pokemon who can just make life for the pokemon on subject pretty dang difficult. An example of this would be Heatran for Scizor, since the existance of Heatran makes it hard for Scizor to really do anything. However, the writer would have to make a quick mention to avoid Superpower/ Brick Break that would end in a quick KO.


Any suggestions/questions?

Sounds good. I'll add the format to the thread. If anyone objects, say so and we'll modify from there. I also modified the format to include 3 sets. I think the rule should be each entry needs to have at least 3 well thought out sets.

Edit: Wtf, infract isn't a word?
