ahaha I totally forgot about Conkeldurr when I was bringing up Excadrill  Be careful, though, because the most popular Excadrill is max speed Choice Scarf revenge killer with Rock Slide and Earthquake, and that is faster than max speed Talonflame. Not sure how I missed this, but I've never seen this tactic in action, before. After seeing the battle I just slow clapped XD it is pretty unfortunate that the guy was parahaxed for like 5 turns straight, though... He might've been able to force you out with spore or something. Haha if you wanted to make Chansey even more annoying, figure out a way to stick Unaware on that, and watch the world burn  On the topic of painfully haxy teams, here is a little replay of when I set out to make the most annoying team possible last gen XD pokemonshowdown.com/replay/oucurrent-38508215edit: haha I seem to have strayed off topic with that last bit, so here's something I've been wondering when I play through X and Y. I have no idea where to find wingull horde battles in route 8. It's definitely not on the water, but I can't find the patch of grass... |

Go to couramine and head up the steps to the right. The grass is up there. EDIT: Ambrette, sorry. Also, you like my strat? : P it has its flaws but I like it. |

*watches Frozn's video.*
*cry* What have you done? Now all it needs is Swagplay Klefki over Liepard and Mega Kanga with Rock Slide. Though I don't understand what Mamoswine is for.

Okay, can anyone possibly get a dream world starly? Or should I just get the ability capsule thing?
I decided on
Staraptor
Excadrill
Alakazam
Dragalge
Accelgor
And I'm not sure for a sixth, but does that sound good?
Accelgor with but buzz, focus blast, me first, and dig? Holding a fighting gem.

Gems other than normal are currently unavaliable. Ability capsules can't get you Hidden Abilities. That aside, make Azumarill your last pokemon. Pure power for an ability, max attack, breed one with Aqua Jet, strap a choice band on it, call it a day. This is a good team overall, but Accelgor is a very weak link in it. If you like it, keep it, but Volcarona would be a much better option. If you can't get one, I'll provide one for you. Just get me a Spritzee and I'd gladly trade. |

I can try to get you a HA starly, Riku. I do a lot of trading on serebii, and I've been looking to get all hidden abilities, anyway  Also, you like my strat? : P it has its flaws but I like it. It's creative, for sure. The eviolite boost makes it scary as heck. I might try something like this, but adding Latios with power split, so I can run chansey with: Aromatherapy Softboiled Ice Beam Thunderbolt *watches Frozn's video.* *cry* What have you done? Now all it needs is Swagplay Klefki over Liepard and Mega Kanga with Rock Slide. Though I don't understand what Mamoswine is for. Mamoswine was my fast and strong offensive pokemon, mainly to take out steels that resist iron head/air slash, and to ice shard things that are at low percentage. It also runs stealth rocks. I love gimmicks, especially when they work on high level players, but I know that gimmicks will never win against good prediction and a solid team. My troll team is based purely on exploiting the percentages in pokemon, and if people get off a lucky shot, I'm done for. I use this team on people who either say they're good, or want to overcome a load of hax  edit: thanks for the suggestions, Steve. Now I can take the trolling to this generation, as well XD |

They're debating banning baton pass now, which is insane.) |

Oh right I heard about the Swagger ban. Oh well at least it's not banned in doubles XD What pokemon could possibly make Baton Pass broken? Mew? Standard Smeargle smashpass isn't nearly good enough, and baton pass chains are a legitimate strategy, especially since it takes up a turn to use the move, and also there is Roar, Dragon Tail, etc everywhere. |

Smogon doesn't think so. They bash what is basically an entire playstyle because they feel it's cheap and they don't want to give up 1/24th of their team to check it. |

The thing is you don't even need to check it. Just kill something in the chain, and everything goes down. Not too many pokes can buff defenses AND live to use baton pass. Also leech seed is funny to watch go around the BP chain XD And baton pass is the only reason anyone sees Scolipede and Venomoth in competitive play. These guys could use some love edit: Also Riku, I'll be getting a HA starly on Friday |

Scolipede is a fearsome sweeper on its own; run a sash and swords dance and you'll devastate anything without priority. I used it in the early days of XY. |

Mainly looking to complete my dex right now. If you have anything on this list, then I'd greatly appreciate it  -Koffing -Stantler -Castform -Cherubi (i'll be your friend forever) -buneary -darumaka -yamask |

Be careful, though, because the most popular Excadrill is max speed Choice Scarf revenge killer with Rock Slide and Earthquake, and that is faster than max speed Talonflame.
I made a thing... Long live Gotcha Force!!!
