This is probably a stupid question but I'm pretty confused. New to battling outside of main series.
Why does it seem like every moveset idea for Gengar puts EVs in SpA and then they make all his moves physical attacks? Like don't poison/ghost/fighting type moves all use the attack stat?
For example: http://www.smogon.com/dex/xy/pokemon/gengar/

OP pls, stop being a dumb dumb
>>25747381
Starting in Generation IV, attacks are individually classifed as Physical or Special, it's no longer based on type. So for example, Flamethrower and Hyper Beam are Special, while Fire Punch and Tackle are Physical.
Which mega do you want to see most in this year's upcoming gen07?
Post which one and desired designs/stats/abilities/moves
>>25747168
No, that's Klefki's Legendary counterpart.
Mythilok guards one of the Pokémon universe's greatest secret. Thousands of years ago, a single Klefki was entrusted with the key to unlock it and released into the wild.

Gamefreak. Hire this fucker.
Megas were a mistake
What's the point of using Eviolite Chansey in a meta where everyone and its mother runs knock off ?
I'm legitimately curious
>>25746817
You should never keep chansey in on a knock-off user.
>>25746817
>leaving your Chansey in for a physical attack
>>25746944
>leaving your physically-boosted wall in on a physical attacker
???
Apart from even stupider SpD, which really isn't needed, isn't that its only claim to fame from Blissey?
Why do you think GF abandoned the day/night cycle in Gen 3, only to have certain effects of it still be in place (for example, you can still get Umbreon/Espeon in these games, if you have Eevee level up in the correct conditions based on your games internal clock at the respective timeslots, but no day/night)?
>>25746696
Time constraints.
You have to remember that they remade the game from scratch while adding shit like secret bases and contests.
In other words abandoning the things that aren't important and keeping the things that are.
>>25746710
Oh and as for Umbreon and Espeon they had to do so or they wouldn't be available at all.
>>25746696
No. They wanted to make it to unique to Pokémon silver and gold but Gamefreak change their mind.

I work for Pokémon Get TV and we had to retouch a scene where Shoko Nakagawa said Hawaii instead of Kawaii. Is it possible that this was a Freudian slip?
You are aware that getTV is long gone right?
>>25746235
Get TV has been gone for like 3 years...
>>25746281
Gen 6.5 is being planned for that long?
Why does /vp/ always say Gamefreak hates Raichu, it's rejected etc because of Pikachu, when literally the opposite is true?
If Pikachu wasn't made the franchise mascot, Raichu would just be a regular electric type like Electrode or Magneton.
Raichu basically benefit's from Pikachu's popularity, and is one of the more well-known Pokemon thanks to being Pikachu's evolution.
>>25746131
That's a funny way of saying that Gamefreak doesn't care enough about Raichu.
>>25746131
t. Raichu
>>25746431
Gamefreak really only puts a lot of focus on a few Pokemon (Pikachu, Charizard, Mewtwo, Lucario).
Raichu isn't harmed by Pikachu's status as series mascot. In fact, I think it benefits a little from it.
I like Pokémon because of the sense of adventure and escapism, how about you anon, what about Pokémon whether it be cards, anime or games appeals to you?
It's fun I guess
That's literally a picture of me as a child taking a math test. Are you my primary teacher?
>>25746128
I like monsters that are cute, cool, or better yet, a mix of both, which pokemon has in spades.
I like the Adventure and Escapism too but it hasn't really been that strong for me since Gen III.
I used to really like all the artwork before it got all plasticy and the character designs became super thin with big shining eyes. At least the trading cards have nice artwork still.
Should I trust her?
No she spends it on berries and shit IIRC
You get bad luck for talking to her
>>25745830
Yup
I know that /vp/ loves to post bait and such, so let's have a dose of raw truth for once.
I'm okay with this list.
>>25745779
>posting bait yourself
Heh.
>>25745779
Regigigas and Heatran do not deserve their positions on the list and should surrender them to Mew and Arceus, respectively

>Using Overheat in Competitive
That move is fucking trash. Why not just use Flamethrower?
Overheat is better if you're switching often.
>>25745772
U-Turn can be counter predicted since namely every competitive team has at least one U-Turn user
>>25745762
>Pyroar is trash, has shit sp.atk and bad movepool
>It usually carries flame + overheat
>Overheat is used to get OHKOs that flame can't
>Overheat is usually used with specs
>Haydunn is trash, and so are you
