This has always been my opinion as well. Somehow, little or no film grain makes the image look "flatter" or less real.
I submit that it's a drastic change in lighting style rather than film stock or grain level that makes the later seasons look so different.
I'm talking about movies and TV in general

new to reloading
hi there,my friend and i have bought Hornady lock and load press with dies for 223 and 300 win mag and all the other tools that we need to reload.we first tried the 223 and had no luck.the problem seems to arise from the resizing die.we have tried different cases(used and brand new)with no result.here is the main problem,when we attempt to crimp the bullet,its either loose or the shoulder is pressed in.we have tried adjusting it so many times with no result.we contacted Hornady and they have been very helpful but all the instructions that we have and follow gets us nowhere.
we then tried the 300 win mag and had better results,except when resizing, the press handle gets stuck on the down stroke and needs some force to bring the case down.is this normal?
any help is greatly appreciated,we are very new to this and have no one to physically guide us through.

Re: new to reloading
Rifle dies need lubrication on the cases. The spray lubes are hit and miss. The good old RCBS pad, loaded with their bottle of liquid lube, onto which you roll the case assures even coverage. Too much lube causes shoulder dents and too little stuck cases in the dies. Case sizing wax lube also works and you just spread it on the case with your fingers. In any case the lube must be removed before shooting the ammo. RCBS lube is water soluable and can be wiped off with a wet rag and the wiped dry with a different rag. The wax just wipes off with one rag.
Also the inside of the neck needs lubrication. I don't like to put case lube there and I use a neat little can of graphite from Neco. It contains a bunch of small round shot and a bunch of graphite powder. You shake it up, remove the lid and slide each cases neck into the can as you load the case into the press. The graphite transfers from the balls to the inside and outside of the case neck. You occasionally have to put the lid on and invert the can to recoat the balls.
The cases must be clean as well. Never reload dirty cases as it can cause the dies to get scratched and ruined.
The hesitation of the press half way back up on the handle is the expander button in the die dragging on the inside of the neck and the graphite lube on the inside of the neck should help that.
Crimping cases is not as easy as it sounds. First, all cases must be trimmed to the same length. Next the seating die body must be adjusted in small increments to get the crimp just right. Such adjusments should be done with the bullet already seated to the correct length and the seating stem removed from the die. It will be replaced after you have the the crimp correct using the finished round as a gage.
There is a much better and easier way and it is the extra die called the LEE Factory Crimp Die. It works on a collet principal (squeezes in on the case), is easier to adjust, and is very effective as a crimping tool. As with all LEE stuff I have used, the design is great but often the longevity is abreviated due to poor materials choices. These crimp dies work great until the collet galls. At least that was my experience on some older versions and newer ones may not have that problem. Just be aware, that's all. At any rate, totally seperate crimping in a seperate die (LEE or other manufacturer's) is always better than trying to seat a bullet while you crimp it in one operation.
But crimping on rifle rounds is only necesary if....
you are reloading for an semi-auto gun, a lever gun, a heavy recoiling gun, for hunting loads that may be subjected to rough handling, or a gun with a tube magazine. Most other guns only require that the case neck tension be high enough that the bullet won't slip with normal handling or normal levels of recoil. Most commercial rifle bullets, cases, and reloading dies automatically assure the correct neck tension such that crimping is probably not really necessary.
All pistol reloads require crimping, either regular or taper (semi-auto pistols) and rarely are problematical with crimping if set up per the instructions with the dies.

Re: new to reloading
Are your cases lubed? Also for instructions I would recommend getting a video from the manufacturer or at least ask for the die instructions from them. This may not help, but I am also new and have found these to help me.

Re: new to reloading
Again LDBENNETT is right but I would also suggest that you go to your local gun shop and buddy up with somebody knowledgeable with reloading. There are so many little things that would only take someone minutes to show you otherwise one would have to right a book.

Re: new to reloading
personally i would highly recomend not to crimp any case except pistol or tube fed guns due to crimping creates higher pressure. exceding the manufactures pressure limit would not be good. i shoot a 338 win mag and have never crimped a case(never would either)i dont get bullett movement with my max loads. even shooting a ar-15 i never crimped and had no problems there.
the hard part of a progressive is lubing and removing the lube for resizing. if you chamfer the case neck prior to seating a bullett, the bullett seats super easy. i do all my rifle work on a non progressive machine to control the quality

Re: new to reloading
If you go through the exercise of using the starting load and working it up, watching for and heeding excessive pressure signs, and never exceeding the maximum powder levels, it makes no difference if the cases are crimped or not, as you are compensating for the pressure increase in the above process. Every factory round I have seen is crimped. The crimp is made as does the Lee Factory crimp die. The Lee die is a collet that squeezes in on the case, working against the body of the bullet.
I, too, only have a few cartridges that I crimp. It includes your list but also any semi-auto rifle. I think it safer to do them than suffer an overpressure from the bullet sinking into the case after 10 or 20 recoil impacts. Ever use the hammer device for dissasembly of loaded rounds? It works on the same principal that the gun gives with recoil. I think it better safe than sorry but that's just me. Do as you choose.
Chamfering the case mouth on new and brass just trimmed is normal proceedure. Everyone should do that.
My progessive process is not slowed down in the least by using the RCBS pad and their lube. I pick up the case roll it across the pad for one revolution and put it on the press. No big deal. It wipes off with a wet rag followed by a dry rag since it is water soluable. Those extra steps give me the opportunity to inspect the finished round.
Progressive press reloaded ammo is no less accurate than ammo loaded by a single stage process. Throwing charges can get you just as accurate ammo perfomance as dribbling in the last grain as the common thinking NOW is that powder charges with in a couple of tenth of a grain are the equal of more exact measures as the differences are swamped out by other varibles of the process out of the reloaders control. The dies in my progressive are held as accurately as any single stage press and therefore make ammo as precise as any single stage.
For more info on the common reloading techniques of today (not 40 years ago) view the Video "Advanced Handloading..Beyond the Basics" with John Barsness of Handloader magazine.

Durbin, D-Ill., plans to convene a gathering of a Senate Judiciary subcommittee to investigate bounty systems in the NFL. This comes after the New Orleans Saints organization was hammered by Goodell for a bounty system that was in place for a time. Head coach Sean Payton got suspended without pay for a year, former defensive coordinator Gregg Williams was suspended indefinitely and the Saints' general manager was suspended six months. Goodell also fined the team half a million dollars and took away two second-round draft picks.
That's not enough for Durbin, who took to the Senate floor last week to say he wants to know what policies are in place in professional and college leagues to ensure "there's no place in athletics for these pay-to-maim bounties." His committee also will look into whether federal sports bribery laws should be altered to include sports bounty programs.

The Jakarta Post, Jakarta
Indonesia has raised its Human Development Index (HDI) ranking through improvements in a number of key sectors, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) announced Tuesday.
The Human Development Report for 2007/2008, Fighting Climate Change: Human Solidarity in a Divided World ranks Indonesia 107th out of 177 countries, with its overall index rising from 0.711 to 0.728 this year.
"The HDI report looks back at a measure of health, education and income ... the standard of living among 177 countries and Indonesia is number 107 this year, one step further than last year," Hakan Bjorkman, UNDP country director for Indonesia, said.
"The change is related to other countries which are improving more. But, slowly, slowly, Indonesia is improving in these areas, but maybe not fast enough," he told The Jakarta Post upon the launch of the Human Development Report.
"The improvement is not as fast as in Vietnam, but Cambodia and Myanmar are much slower than Indonesia," he added.
In the key sectors of life expectancy at birth and gross domestic product per capita, Indonesia rose respectively from 67.2 to 69.7 and from US$3,609 to $3,843.
This year, the UNDP especially focused its report on climate change issues in the lead-up to the global climate change conference in Bali in December.
"Since 1990 we have published the annual Human Development Report, but this year's report differs from last year's in that it is not from a narrow economic point of view, but from the climate change point of view," said Bjorkman.
"This report is a good reference for climate change issues." he added.
"The impact will be serious on the poor countries. If we don't do the right things right now, climate change will sabotage the Millennium Development (Goals)," said Bjorkman.
Bjorkman also said that most of the climate change has been caused by carbon emissions in developed countries over the past hundred years.
"As a good example of global solidarity between rich and poor countries, it's a big responsibility for rich countries to support the countries that are most affected, which are the poor countries, in terms of mitigating, fighting climate change or transplanting technology," Bjorkman said.

Atmos shows the way to hydro planning consent
Consultancy celebrating 10 out of 10 on run-of-river hydro schemes.
A significant barrier to streamlined planning consent for small run-of-river hydro schemes has been removed by Atmos Consulting, whose Acoustics & Noise team is celebrating a 100% record of success for its work. Atmos can now call on its investment in collecting readings from operational schemes, and so develop realistic noise predictions for what are typically going to be bespoke systems. It is clearly an approach that is satisfying local authorities, because all 10 of the projects Atmos provided noise impact assessments or EIA noise chapters for during 2013 have now been granted approval.
The perfect record was completed by recent formal planning approvals at Carie Burn and Strathtay in Scotland.
Many manufacturers don't have or share data on how noisy their equipment is; not least because each turbine/generator set is bespoke. As a result it can be very difficult to predict noise levels. Having recognised the information gap as a potential planning constraint, Atmos decided to invest in acquiring data from as many operational sites as possible, covering different power outputs and different turbine types. The consultancy now has an objective basis from which to make realistic predictions.
"We're delighted that the approach we have developed is proving so successful," said Jim Singleton, who heads Atmos Consulting's Acoustics & Noise consultancy team.
"None of our assessments have been called in by an environmental health officer wanting extra information. As the new sites become operational, not only is the robustness of our source data endorsed, but we are also able to add to our ever expanding hydro noise database."
Atmos' assessments for the schemes included the following noise consultancy activities:
• Baseline noise monitoring,
• Powerhouse internal noise measurement,
• Noise propagation modelling, and
• Consultation with Environmental Health Officers and regulatory bodies.
While the projects Atmos has worked on are mostly concentrated in Scotland, Atmos offices across the UK have been receiving enquiries about small hydro, which is undoubtedly a growing market.
Atmos Consulting GIS Manager Tom Hartley said: "It was a logical step for us to integrate the noise data into our in-house GIS system. We now have bespoke modelling tools that can generate good noise predictions for any projected hydro scheme, wherever it may be.
"By utilising our GIS expertise, we can offer developers a service that is both quick and remarkably cost effective."
List of Atmos' 2013 small hydro successes:
• Rumbling Bridge, Perth and Kinross: 500kW Francis turbine
• Larairidh, Highlands: 486kW twin jet Pelton turbine
• Allt Garbh, Highlands: 2 of 850kW twin jet Pelton turbines
• Abhaiann Gleann nam Fiadh, Highlands: 2 of 1MW twin jet Pelton turbines
• Allt na h-Imrich, Highlands: 450kW Turgo turbine
• Camps Reservoir, Lanarkshire: 65kW Francis turbine
• Udston SR, Hamilton: 75.8kW turbine
• Afon Gafr, Nant Peris, Snowdonia: 330kW Pelton turbine
• Carie Burn Hydro Electric Scheme, Loch Rannoch, Perthshire: 500kW turbine
• Strathtay hydro scheme, Tullypowrie Burn, Perthshire, 300kw turbine

Sierra Walter capped a 10-year 4-H career Friday night by being chosen the queen for this year's fair.
"It's a dream come true. On my 10th year, it's an honor to be queen," Walter of Goshen said. "I can show people to challenge yourself like I did with my cystic fibrosis. I honestly don't know what to look forward to (being queen during fair week). I will have fun and take what I can get."
Her question for the impromptu question was about what she knew to be true?
"My faith. It is the reason I am here today," Walter said.
As she sat in a folding chair taking photos and receiving congratulations afterwards, the new queen was asked about her response to the question.
"I was a nervous wreck, but I was told to make it (the answer) short and to the point," Walter said, smiling.
After the contest, her plans for rest of the evening included certain necessities.
"I have to do chores," she said.
And she'll be busy this week showing her 23 goats, a beef heifer and steer and two horses, this in addition to her duties as queen for rest of the week.
Her court includes first runner-up Taylor Poling of Mishawaka; second runner-up Morgan Kerrn of Elkhart; third runner-up Sarah Kezar of New Paris; fourth runner-up Marissa Lorenz of New Paris; and Miss Congeniality, Allie Herkenroder of Elkhart.

No. 21 Michigan beats No. 3 Michigan State 80-75
EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) - With some swagger and a sweet stroke, Nik Stauskas lifted Michigan to a rare win at Michigan State.
Stauskas made a tiebreaking 3-pointer with 3:12 left and finished with 19 points to lead the 21st-ranked Wolverines to an 80-75 win over the third-ranked Spartans on Saturday night to remain the only Big Ten team without a conference loss.
The sophomore shooting guard had four assists and unofficially had another one, separating coach John Beilein from a face-to-face argument with an official with 4:01 remaining.
"He was about to get a technical," Stauskas said.
Stauskas helped the usually mild-mannered Beilein from saying or doing something that might cost his team points just before the Wolverines (15-4, 7-0 Big Ten) went on a 10-0 run late in the game to take control.
"That's a great step in his leadership," Beilein said with a grin.
The Wolverines won for just the second time in 15 games at the Breslin Center.
Michigan is the first team since at least the 1996-97 season to win three straight games against top-10 teams in the regular season, according to STATS. The Wolverines, who had never pulled off that feat in school history, were coming off a win against No. 10 Iowa at home after beating then-No. 3 Wisconsin on the road.
"This is a great win for us because of who we were just able to beat," Beilein said. "It's one of the classiest, best programs in the country."
Freshman Derrick Walton Jr. scored a season-high 19 and Caris LeVert scored 17 for the Wolverines, who have won nine straight without standout center Mitch McGary.
The Spartans (18-2, 7-1) had won 11 straight since losing to North Carolina at home, but the streak was snapped by their rival soon after another injury-related setback.
"The better team won," coach Tom Izzo acknowledged.
Adreian Payne missed a fifth straight game with a sprained right foot and Branden Dawson was out for the first time since the junior forward said he broke his right hand hitting a table.
Michigan, though, didn't have any sympathy.
The Wolverines, who lost Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway Jr. early to the NBA, have been playing without McGary because he needed back surgery since losing to No. 1 Arizona in a closely contested game.

Brazil signs production-sharing agreement with oil consortium to develop huge offshore field
Reported by: Associated Press
Reported: Monday, December 2, 2013 2:50 PM EST
BRASILIA, Brazil
Brazil has signed an agreement with a consortium of five oil companies to develop a huge offshore field under the so-called production-sharing regime that gives the federal, state and municipal governments a 75 percent stake of the oil extracted.
In October the consortium made up of Brazil's state-owned oil company Petrobras, Shell of the Netherlands,. France's Total and Chinese state companies CNOOC and CNPC won the right to develop the Libra offshore field. It could hold up to 12 billion barrels of oil.
President Dilma Rousseff says Monday's signing establishes "the basis for a more just and less unequal nation and for a period of prosperity that will benefit Brazil for many decades."

Bruno Mars - Bruno Mars And Rihanna Are Most Pirated Artists Of 2013
R&B stars Bruno Mars and Rihanna have topped a new list of the most pirated artists of 2013.
The singers have enjoyed huge success on pop charts around the world, but they've also proved popular on illegal file-sharing websites, with both musicians racking up more than five million illegal downloads each over the past 12 months, despite not releasing albums since 2012.
Daft Punk and Justin Timberlake were also big hits on Bit Torrent sites, with around four million downloads each, according to data compiled by analysts at Musicmetric.com.
Rapper Flo Rida rounds out the top five on the poll, while Kanye West, Eminem, Jay Z and Drake also feature high on the list.
Representatives for the website revealed last week (ends27Dec13) that unauthorised downloads of Beyonce's new self-titled album cost the superstar an estimated $3.8 million (£2.53 million) in sales, and the 240,000 illegal hits landed her a place in the top 20 of Musicmetric's end of year poll, too.

The Women Leaders Who Drive Aquino's Reform Agenda
March 5, 2014
For a president who was so greatly influenced by his mother and surrounded by sisters, it's perhaps not that surprising that Simeon Benigno Aquino III has appointed women to some of the highest positions of his administration. A confirmed bachelor, he has parried queries about marriage from media and friends, and has publicly stated, both in jest and utmost seriousness, that he has sacrificed his love life in order to make good on his promise to his father to keep his family safe. Now that he is president, he has appointed strong and influential women in his government...

Inclusive Growth in Asia is Impossible Without Including Women
March 5, 2014
A report from Oxfam released in late January put down on paper what many already feared was true: almost almost half of the world's wealth is now owned by just one percent of the population. This is also the case in Asia, where income and wealth disparity is growing rapidly.

Using a non-compatible headset for the xbox 360? (self.headphones)

I want to say bc the adapter you are plugging into the xbox controller has a TRRS tip. I believe the controller was designed to take a TRS, the Tip (left or mono audio) Ring (mic) Sleeve (ground). I am really just guessing that this is the issue as the contact for the mic input of the controller is not contacting the mic of cable/adapter. If the mono audio of the chat is coming out of the headphones then some contact is being made. Trying yelling at the Right/left (which ever the audio isnt coming out of) headphone and see if anyone on the other end hears you. if they do, then the contacts of the adapter and controller are backwards.
[–]mwad 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
The tip of controller's port is actually ground. I had some wiring issues with my last headset and played around with it to figure out a for online voice until I could get a my newer set. I don't remember which was audio and which was ground though, and I've since sold my xbox towards my new PS4 so I really can't go back and double check.
I don't know how much that's worth to you at this point, just figured I'd share what I knew on the subject.

Hello people. Name is... Res. A huge Pokemon fan since....well since the Red,Blue,Yellow games. Currently in-love with Pokemon X and Y. I do a lot of Wi-Fi battling,not that good , but i enjoy it nonetheless. I'd love a challenge,creating new Teams daily!
Hello there guys. I am Iggy, you can also call me Freyr :D I am new to this forum so I'm hoping to make new friends here. I've been playing Pokemon since I'm 10, started out with Pokemon Red and Blue version until the Fire Red and Emerald versions. I just got my 3DS so it's my first time playing new generations of Pokemon :D I hope I learn more about Pokemon Gen VI here as well as upcoming updates. I also do some artworks and I'm going to share them soon. Cheers and it's Nice to be a part of this community !!!! Hoping to meet new friends :D
Hi I'm bretsky, I'm new here and new to pokemon in general, but I absolutely love them! Not sure what smogon is all about, but I decided to come and post here!
Hello, My name is Rocz, I'm somewhat new to smogon I've been lurking for a bit but never signed up. In the Military, getting into BodyBuilding, and I play Pokemon (as well as other games..duh) for fun. I've been playing Pokemon since Yellow, started to really learn the Ev and IV mechanics in ruby, and started to get into competitive battle in B&W. Not to great at it still learning the different play styles checks, counters, synergy between mons and what not. Id like to get involved in the competitive side of smogon(more specifically OU UU and LC for the lulz) and I'm on PS! as AoRocz. don't have a Friend code just yet since I haven't even started on X (USPS and Amazon hates us overseas people lol) but ill update and get involved till then.! A Pleasure.
Sup everyone! Long time Pokemon fan here. To be honest I haven't played Pokemon in a very long time, about 6 years or so. I just picked up Pokemon X recently and decided to jump back into the Pokemon scene. I always enjoyed breeding my own Dream Team and taking them striaght into the fray! That being said, I've been out of the game for so long that my rust is highly visible. Thus I have joined this site in the hopes that it will help me catch up and learn all the ins and outs of this current Gen. I'm mainly looking forward to learning everything there is to know about the competitive battle scene. Currently I am working on my Dream Team. That being said, I need help refining this team as much as possible! So I'm looking forward to learning as much as possible from the great minds here at, Smogon.
Afternoon, I'm Andy (as the name suggests!) and I've been a fan of the game ever since the start, and I've only just started to look into the competitive side of it all, so yeah, all about the dream team, learning IV's and EV's and then starting to play competetive. Also a musician, so may do some pokemon remixes in the future, who knows. Anyways, can't wait to talk to a few of you!
G'morning. My name's ennuii. I play lots of pokémon. I've been using this site quite a bunch to learn how to mercilessly slaughter my co-workers at local battles. It's pretty silly when an opponent's mon gets hit so hard their hp bar suddenly ceases to be rather than ticking away and three people look at you with open mouths from across the room wondering how an azumerril just thrashed an entire team in one go. I'm getting pretty thrashed myself in wifi battles in doubles and the stupid doubles battle maison. I guess my team's kind of lacking cohesion. I know it surely isn't perfect, but I play mostly mons I think look cool. (My shiny goodra and 6iv mega lucario are my favorites.) Anywho. I'll surely be lurking a bit more and contributing eventually.. ciao. -enn
Hello I'm Pauul97 (paul) I have been a fan of pokemon for many years and want to become better at competitive battles. I can't wait to start learning and making friends on this site. Thank you for reading!
Hello I'm Willy410 I've been a huge player and fan of pokemon for many years, but only recently decided to get into competitive battling in x and y. I am really interested and excited to learn more about competitive battling and the strategies used, and am probably most interested in singles ou! Can't wait to get started!
Hi, like willy410 , I'm a huge fan of pokemon, play it since version blue. I have been in a hiatus since Crystal Version, back in Black/White/Black2/White2 (Gen 5), but only now i'm starting to play competitive battling. I'm from Brazil, and english is not my main language so, sometimes i'll say something wrong lol. thanks for the help.
Hey guys, I'm Vasilas. Hopefully this forum is still active as I'm very excited to be a part of it. I've never really played much competitive Pokemon although I have played since about gen 2. If a mod or someone who knows the ropes could message me that would be great. Hope to see you all in battle!
Hey everybody I'm Jeremy, I just started competitive battling and I lost very badly to someone at my school and I really can't use pokesav with the new 6th gen release. I was hoping you could tutor me on breeding and building a good competitive team. I don't have any friend codes and friend safari's to build my team and I am hoping to make new friends in this process. Oh and my favorite pokemon is a Feraligator.
Hello ! I'm Marisson. I'm thirteen and I'm french. I'm here to practice my english and also improve in competitive pokémon's battle. My favorite tier is Little Cup but I like rarely used and ubers too. My favorite pokémon is Chespin (Marisson in french).
Greetings, good day, and hello to everyone who bothers to actually read this. I am Synxthe1st, and I am a very hopeful artist and author in the making. I have an account on DeviantART if anyone is curious to see my work. My username is the same there as it is here. I am here because I grew up with Pokemon and wish to join in on the competitive play of this nostalgic series, as I have always been a very competitive person myself. I've been playing around on Showdown for a while, and I must say I am impressed by how accurately the programmers' calculations are! I also have a fond love for what I hear is called a Sand Team, which makes sense. Hippowdon and Tyranitar are two of my favorite Pokemon (especially since Tyranitar is based on Godzilla). That aside, I am very interested in OU tiers, and it's where I seem to shine through the dusty storms I conjure the best. It's a shame that, with Generation VI, that weather only lasts for 5-8 turns. Anyway, I'd love it if someone around here could teach me how to effectively use a Generation 6 Sand Team to it's full effectiveness. As a side note, these are the games I played, in the order acquired: Red, Yellow, Blue, Crystal, Gold, Silver, Snap!, Stadium, Sapphire, Ruby, Emerald, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, White, White 2. I am hopeful I can get my hands on Pokemon Y, as I know Tyranitar's evolutionary family is found in-game. Alright, well, that's it I guess. Time to get back to Showdown. I hope to see many of you in the OU tier! Synxthe1st, OUT!
Hey everybody! My name is uʍopǝpısdn and I'm new here. In the past, I had done a lot of EV training, and making good individual Pokemon, but I never really did much with making a good team. I hope to participate and be mentored in OU. -- No trees were destroyed in the sending of this message; however, a significant number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.
Well good luck to you, uʍopǝpısdn. May I mention that your name is extremely simple that it's amazing?
Hello all! I'm from Quebec, Canada. I've know Pokemon since Pokemon Red, Blue, Yellow (First Gen), but I've always played it in an "childish" way : finishing the pokemon ligue, not farming the pokedex, replay the game again with different pokemons, etc.. I've never been into any kind of pokemon competitive system. I've started to fill out my pokedex for the first time in Pokemon X and I'm doing pretty fine. Doing so I started to have some interest in a more competitive aspect. I looked at a lot of battle videos and I'm stalking this website's forum since last week to try to understand the way things works, how to build a good team, understand the battle mecanics of competitive battle, etc. I'm not new to pokemon, I consider myself a good pokemon trainer, but I want to be part of something greater than the pokemon game itself. I want to maximise my performance and comme out with good knowledge of the competitive pokemon battle systems, and build an indestructible unusual (I'm a huge shuckle fan) pokemon team. I'm looking for some help to lead me into this process. Thank you
Hey everyone, been playing pokemon forever even before color existed on this planet! I am am very new to competitive pokemon playing, seeing as I started Wednesday. My name on showdown is the same as on here. I typically play on Pokebank OU. Ive been sitting at the 1450-1500 rating range the whole time. I'm here looking to step up my game. All help will be greatly appreciated. Sadly I can't connect to the servers right now. I dont know if that's just me or what. but hopefully it will be resolved soon. I think I'm addicted!
Hello! I am Grimlai! I've been playing since D/P/P and playing competitively since B/W/B2/W2. However, I am still very new to the Smogon Forums (but the database is an old friend since day 1) and, frankly, I'm not all that great at battling compared to others on Showdown and Online. My Pokemon Showdown handle is Grimlai (same as here) and you may know me (although it's unlikely) on Youtube as ConanonVorad. I hope to make some friends and bash some heads in the ring! Game on!
Hi my Names Korey I spelled trainer wrong on purpose cuz im a REBEL! JUst kidding iv'e been playing pokemon since I was like 6/7 and ive been hooked ever since and I look up to people like shofu and pokeaimMd since they have so much knowledge in the competetive scene but yea i like making new friends so send me a pm and im also raring for a battle so yea thats me
hi everyone! i'm danchou, i've been playing since i was four and definitely haven't planned to quit! i play seriously but i haven't dabbled in the world of metagames yet because i'm a little intimidated??? i like casual battling but haven't felt confident enough to start being more competitive until now. i've been itching to learn more about competitive battling and i'd love to be mentored in OU and RU/NU as well! my favorite pokemon are altaria, riolu and lilligant! it's nice to meet you all!
Hello all, I'm Honesty, been playing Pokemon since the Gameboy Color. Been on and off competitively over the years, but now with 6th Gen, I can already tell this going to be one interesting new metagame. Primarly an OU and UU player, but definitely looking to try Ubers and lower tiers if anyone wants to assist me. Favorite Pokemon as of recent is definitely Slurpuff!
Hey everyone I have been playing pokemon since gen 1 and having been playing competitively for around 2 years or so, currently sitting at around 1.7k rating. I play primarily OU but I play other tiers time to time. I have a strong preference for stall and baton pass teams and would appreciate any advice in them!
Hello Guys, My name is Sean or Oblivion, Im relatively old to playing Pokémon, but a beginner when it comes towards Competitive. I started in 5th Gen and have been improving since then. Im very new to chatting on this forum despite the fact that I've been coming here for strategies since I started playing competitively. I've been playing Pokémon itself since Hoenn and came here just to have some fun! Currently i also play Competitive Call of Duty and just wanted a change! (Don't kill me please.) xD Anyhow, I love computers in all, you could consider me a computer geek and gamer. If that's what you'd like, I Really prefer to battle in OU as i find its the simplest as its the most common. I hope to get to know you guys soon! Thank you :) -Sean
I've just signed up for this site. Im known as May825 everywhere on the internet, and I draw a lot, even as a money source. The profile picture I have right now is something I drew of what I think my character would look like as a mega evolution version of herself. I joined the forums to try and learn more about the competitive pokemon game play since X and Y have introduced online WiFi battling that I enjoy, and that I can easily customize my pokemon's stats and move set as I want to, and how I battle. Ive been playing since the original red version, owned most pokemon games for American release. So the competitive scene is new to me, and I hope to learn more :}
