I haven't played Pokemon since ORAS was released and I accidentally talked myself into a competitive battle. I would love some advice for a team. Maybe a basic layout? Thanks in advance.

Smogon
It's not the best but it's fine for beginners
>>26876344
Might I suggest the UU tier on Smogon. You can use your bros, and I think it's a lot of fun.
>>26876344
Google 'OU ORAS team rmt smogon' and look through those.
We already had Zangoose and like 20 dogs. Are they running out of ideas?
>>26876336
Zangoose's rivalry with Seviper is based on mongooses, but its appearance and fighting style (it uses its claws, while real mongoose fight by biting) are based on cats.
It's a "Cat Ferret/Weasel", not a mongoose. Yungoos is the true mongoose.
With that logic they ran out of ideas back in gen3 when they introduced yet another larva that evolves into a puppea
>>26876370
Cats are also known for hunting snakes anyway, so it's not a big deal.
>SM won't have surfable routes from island to island
Yeah, Hoenn was a joke, but I'd at least like one for each island. It makes the region feel more whole.
>light blue water
>implying you won't be able to drive the boats yourself, like soaring but on water
>>26876285
im okay with no surf ONLY if the boat is not a fucking cutscene but rather a ship where you battle like SS anne or SS aqua
Give me ideas for videos on my youtube channel.

So I forgot to save the Slowpoke Youngster battle in route 25, but I still have the gambler to initiate.
I'm trying to do the mew glitch, and bulbapedia says there are multiple ways to go about finding the right trainers to abuse the glitch on.
So I can successfully initiate the glitch with the route 8 gambler, yet the other trainers I fight to finish the glitch must be screwing it up.
First time I tried a hiker near lavender town and a lvl 7 Gastly showed up.
Second time I tried the hiker above the first one, and now this motherfucker shows up instead.

Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

Because you're playing Yellow you retard.
It probably has to do with the sp stat of your lead mon
>>26876132
Yes?
That's the whole point.
The mew glitch on yellow
Why is a hermit crab considered a bug type?
>>26876036
>>26876036
Arthropod
>>26876036
Well at least it's consistent across nintendo because in Animal Crossing New Leaf, the hermit crab is also considered a bug.
>>26876036
Crabs are considered bugs in Japan.
Better question: Why aren't KRabby and Kingler Water/Bug?
I`m planting this, feel free to discuss
>"but the BG is not exactly the same as the Pokémon village; ex: the river/ waterfall"
>battles bgs are not known to be precisely identical to the real ingame world
Also, this video here:

Do NOT click the video link. Don't give that shitter your view.
>>26876024
Views don't matter nearly as much as retention does.
>>26876010
Riiiiight, because gamefreak would TOTALLY redesign the kalos region with the new sm artstyle, they will fucking recreate lumiose just so you can go back!!!
seriously stop this fucking shit, the game will take place only in the alola region

So is it a meta-commentary on how the metagame has become?
>>26875715
>Literally a poop
I too poop out superheated globs of magma and steel that have high special defense and are weak to ground types
Which looks the more promising?
6 honestly
The desings were more appealing
Grubbin should be last in this image. It was revealed last.
Gen 6 looks less autistic

Does GF ever do balance changes to Gen, like in the sense that they change up Pokemon stat distros?
Yes, in gen 6 they added 10 attack to Scolipede, for example. In conjunction with the HA speed boost it became powerful enough for OU tier and even has a niche in Ubers
>>26875431
What happens to a Pokemon transferred to a new gen, then? Do they receive the buff/nerf?
>>26875488
Of course, that would be against the games programming if they didn't.
