Need some suggestions for my Black 2 mono-type team for the endgame facilities.
Keep in mind that I only have a very basic understanding of competitive pokemon battling.
I take all my sets from Smogon, and only change them slightly when they are designed for specific competitive threats and metagaming.
So far, I want to put a No Guard Machamp @ Lum Berry in the lead, because he's just an insane powerhouse and wrecks some teams all by himself.
Now, the issue is that he loses to most flying and psychic pokes, since they are faster than him, and hit for...

It doesn't have to be a competitive team, I just explained to you how I have no clue about competitive battling, and that I am pretty new to pokemon in general, that's why I use Smogon.
I understand that the site is heavily disliked on /vp/, but it helps newfags, such as myself, tremendously.
Right now, I just try to balance out my fighting team to cover super effective type weaknesses, and if a overall rather weak pokemon fits the team, I'm more than ready to use it.

Terrakion and Scrafty would probably be better for what you're looking for. Unless we have the whole Pokdex available here at the time. I can't recall if Machop is in Black 2 or not.

We'll see, but I don't think SuMo will be able to top the XY, the best mainline soundtrack yet.

Nothing can beat BlaWhi in my opinion.
How would you design, from the ground up, a pokemon balanced around Parental Bond?
Hard mode: don't change the ability itself
Dante Must Die mode: don't just give it a horrible BST
A shitty moveset that doesnt allow it to be as powerful. No moves like power up punch that increase stats and cause damage and no moves with a base damage above 100 maybe.
A shitty gimmickmon like Spinda or some shit.
Bst of like 400
Electric
Parental Bond/Motor Drive
500 BST
90 HP
110 Atk
75 Def
70 SpA
75 SpD
80 Spe
Relevant moves: Wild Charge, Thunder Punch, Knock Off (lol ,second hit will have really bad BP because it won't hit an item) Superpower (lol, drop your own stats twice), Iron Tail, Dynamic Punch, Aerial Ace
CAN'T Learn (this is important): Flame Charge, Ice Punch, Fire Punch, Power-up-punch
So we have...
Physical electric type with cruddy coverage, the coverage moves it odes get are low BP or have bad accuracy, it doesn't learn...

>Turn EXP share off
>Game becomes fun again
Hope this shit stays in Gen VI.
Gen VI EXP Share allows for far more playstyles than the old one did, so I hope it isn't gutted.
>>26802953
As long as the game is balanced around not having EXP share on. I don't like having to grind or be overleveled. Thankfully EXP scaling is back so it should help immensely with that.
Also hope they bring back the old EXP share under a different name. I liked being able to control where the EXP goes.
>>26803023
EXP share should be given to you post-game where it belongs.

We've all been there. You're about to win as long as your opponent doesn't crit. What are the odds, right? Then it happens, then you lose. I think it's safe to say pokemon fans generally dislike critical hits, but what do you all think? Should GF just remove crits? They seem really unhealthy for a strategy game.
By that logic, we shouldn't have accuracy or anything else involving random chances.
It works both ways, though. I've won countless battles, more than I've lost, I dare say, thanks to critical hits. Battles I really shouldn't have won, I hasten to add.
>>26802927
I don't remember the exact quote, but I remember someone heavily involved with pokemon made the game based on chance in order to give newer players a chance to win.
In most games, the more experienced player will always win, but if you add chance to the mix, there is a possibility that the new one might win one of those battles.
Fuck whoever did that, if you are shit at whatever game you shouldn't be able to win because of fucking luck.
Which Pokemon has the best ears?

pokemon moon will my my 1st pokemon game since pokemon blue.
what should I know about this game /vp/ should there be any other games I should play?
I'd play XY or ORAS if I were you. Both if you can afford it. XY because it's the most recent and shows you a bit of what to expect.
ORAS uses new mechanics but is a remake and so you get some extra features you may not see in Sun/Moon. (Specifically secret bases come to mind.)
You'll need a 3DS for Sun/Moon anyway, so it's not like you'd need a new system.
>>26802779
ORAS is also literally drenched with lesbians so there's that. OP, if you do get ORAS, be sure to talk to every NPC because there are some real gems hidden in the game.
sides, Sun and Moon suck

IFKR?
Suppose that theoretically Pokemon existed and could operate a computer well enough to post on /vp/. under these hypothetical conditions, what Pokemon would post on /vp/ and what Pokemon would avoid it like the plague? More specifically what Pokemon would shitpost here? Hypothetically speaking of course.
