    Smogon Simple Questions & Suggestions Thread

    I am posting to ask here because I tried looking this up on Smogon itself and on Google and didn't find it. Is there a place where you can see whenever a new custom B2/W2 animated sprite is added for Pokémon who came out Gen 6 or later? I am LOVING the work that people are doing to make these...

    Oooh, so my testing was flawed! It doesn't work on a Terastallised Pokémon. Now I get how Tar Shot works both with and without Tera, though. Thank you so much!!!

    I have 2 questions pertaining to Tar Shot: 1. If you use it on a Pokémon before they Terastallise, and then they Terastallise, does the effect remain? 2. If you use it on a Pokémon who is neutral to Fire and then try to activate a Weakness Policy on them with a Fire attack, why doesn't it...

    Bug Reports v4 -- POST BUGS HERE https://www.smogon.com/forums/ps-bug-report-form/

    Oké, so...I Skill Swapped Toxic Debris to my Pokémon from the opponent and immediately got hit. On the hit, Toxic Spikes spread, then immediately disappeared. Possibly of note: Glimmora was Poison-Type at the start of the turn, and then Terastallised into a Grass-Type, which of course took...

    One way to stop TR is to flinch the TR-setter (if possible). One way to do this is to go for a Move like Rock Slide, which has 90% Accuracy and a 30% flinch chance. It's possible for both of your Pokémon to go for it at the same time to increase your chances of getting the flinch. What are the...

    Um...Milotic, A-Ninetales, Glaceon, and Frosmoth get Triple Axel. No. The description: A consecutive three-kick attack that becomes more powerful with each successful hit. The animation shows the Pokémon going up in the air with a whirling animation around them, likely to allude to what a...

    So it will be at 0,67x damage no matter how many available targets there are? I'm not sure if it's necessary to clarify (and if so, I think it's because I didn't explain what I meant clearly), but I wanted to say as an example: I have a Clefable and my opponent has a Whimsicott. This is a...

    Oké, thanks! But like...if there's only one Pokémon out on the side of the field with Screens, is damage 0,67x or 0,5? Basically, is the Doubles "reduction in damage reduction", if you will, always in effect...or only in effect when there are two Pokémon on the side of the field where the...

    According to Bulbapedia, damage is 0,5x when Screens are up, but in Doubles, it's 0,75x (or at least, when 2 Pokémon are out on the side of the field that has the Screens). Is this correct? How do you know that it is/isn't?

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    When I was watching a video about Temtem, apparently a design choice for GF was to have different stages be, in many (but not all) cases, quite distinct from the other forms, to the point of possibly seeming to be unrelated; this contrasts with Temtem, where each evolution is intended to be more...

    I think that you were right in your estimation of all the changes that needed to be made! However, I think that Nidoking's new model is simply irredeemable; below I outline all the problems I have: With Nidoking nearly always being depicted from the side, I think that one of the things that...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    Someone mentioned that Tackle got nerfed: I didn't realise that had happened in Gen 6. In Gen 5 though, I believe, it got a buff - went from 35 BP to 50 BP. Scratch was always 40 BP with 100% Accuracy, so it was literally always better than Tackle in every way; trading Accuracy for more power...

    Might've been weird to add that so late on? I feel like resistances being changed appears less, like...jarring, somehow. Personally, I'm happy to have the Fairy type. Would be nice if they weren't quite so broken, though. I think that removing the resistance to Bug would legitimately help with...

    Pokémon Movepool Oddities & Explanations

    That's a really charitable interpretation of humans. Humans mine for gems to take everything for themselves; they almost certainly wouldn't share with a wild Pokémon. >.> This argument is more reasonable than the other one you made for this, I'd say. Some of the Pokédex entries say that...

    The Duskull line learns Helping Hand. Sableye, too. As far as Ghosts are concerned, it kinda feels like Sableye is among the ultimate pranksters...especially being the only Ghost (that I know of) to get Prankster! Salazzle does NOT seem like a HH Pokémon (also, I am put off by their Pokédex...

    I agree with this so hard. Bug is understandably resisted by many things, but I've always been perplexed by the resistance to Ghost. Fairy certainly doesn't appear to need this resistance and it's not like Bug needed the nerf.

    What's the rationale behind who gets Helping Hand? Like...Dhelmise gets Helping Hand, but not the Gengar line. Is there rhyme or reason behind who gets it and who doesn't?
