I never forget Scizor. He's #1 in usage for a reason.


But yeah, 2nd gen had some cool stuff. Notably Sudowoodo and Xatu.

I told my roomie I was raising a Dunsparce, and he told me he was gonna two shot me.

I was like, "Dude...you know this thing's gonna make you hate your life, right?"

Haha, sadly no. He's NU.

That said, Dunsparce can still hax OU Pokemon into submission. It's just very hard for him to survive multiple hits.

Yeah, Dunsparce is a load of poo. He certainly LOOKS amazing though.

Dunsparce is just too slow and can't hit worth crap. He has good HP, but his defenses aren't remarkable. He can flinch a lot, but if you're trying to do that, you might as well use Togekiss.

dunsparce just gets more and more terrible as you go along in the game. it started off awesome against falkner/bugsy/whitney but now i have 8 badges and its just so bad compared to the rest of my team :<

Yeah, same here. :/ Mine used to be bulky, but now he pretty much gets two shot by everything.

Dunsparce can be SLIGHTLY bulky against moderately powerful Pokemon, provided it's EV'ed correctly and has good IV's.

It won't be taking hits from Garchomp anytime soon though.

True but that still doesn't change that your better off using Togekiss or Jirachi :p


Other then the fact that dunscrape is cool, hes pretty useless.

You won't be using Dunspparce in competitive play anyway.

There's no reason to use him for flinch hax when there are Pokemon that do it better. He just looks cool. lol

Garchomp has two Base Speed points higher than Salamence.
It's also Uber because:
It's crazily bulky and can take more Ice punishment than most Dragons, even though it's also dually weak to the type.
Says "screw you" to Stealth Rock
Gets an Evasion boost in Sandstorm (and is immune to it)
Has an EXTREMELY irritating Speed stat (as previously mentioned)
Learns Swords Dance
Gets STAB on two types that are almost unresisted together (only Steel/Flying or any Steel type with Levitate can do it)
Yache Berry can prevent it from going down in one hit from Ice moves even if it would have KOed it before

Eggg....

I remember evasion boost annoying me SO much everytime I would play when he was unbanned. I still think he could be reintroduced to OU at some point. With latias becoming OU I think we have another pokemon who can do SOMETHING with the right predicting.

Missing No. is obviously the best Pokemon ever. /end discussion

Also, link to the MLG rules and stages please.

EDIT: Nevermind, I found it. I actually really like the rule set. I find the use of Green Greens VERY strange, but at least the strict ledge grab limit means no planking. :D At least nothing long term anyway.

Most of the original ruleset was awful/ still is awful, and people like richbrown are voicing their opinions and helping fix the ruleset.

Green Greeens... :/

I hope they don't decide to get rid of the "Marth can not do infinite grab releases to Ness/Lucas" rule. It always made me wonder why some rulesets disallowed DDD to infinite chaingrab Luigi, DK, Bowser yet nobody disallowed Marth/Charizard (hopefully they include Charizard in too, his is just as bad as Marth's :/) from infiniting Ness/Lucas.
