I found couple errors in this thread http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=51529 Errors: They spelled ''formes'' multiply time's throughout the thread. It is spelled ''form's '' or ''forms'' Either one works i guess. Other spelling/grammar error is. They wrote ''switchins'' a couple times. It should be ''switch-ins''. Also ''self explanatory'' Should be ''self-explanatory'' That's all i found wrong.
Actually this is the correct way of spelling it in this case, as it is the way it is spelt by the makers of the game.
http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/dragonite In the Bulky DDNite section, 4th sentence, it reads "than Outrage is your choice" It should be then
Horsea 36 Def/200 SpA/36 SpD/196 Spe This is what is listed and it gives you 14 Def/16 SpA/9 SpD/16 Spe 36 Def/196 SpA/76 SpD/196 Spe This is what I'm suggesting you change it to as it will give you 14 Def/16 SpA/10 SpD/16 Spe
A quick nitpick, at the bottom of Trapinch's page it says that Dugtrio is OU, when it dropped a while back.
I think the analyses seem to be down at the moment, but there is a small error in the Empoleon analysis on the lead set. It refers to the 152 HP evs, when the set actually has 156. (by the way, I can recall it being as such from yesterday, and have confirmed by looking at the peer edit archive, in case you were wondering)
http://www.smogon.com/dp/articles/intro_comp_pokemon in move mechanics: physical and special moves ghost was physical
Although you didn't mention it, OHKOs is also incorrect in that case. Thanks for pointing it out accidentally. =P
In Sneasel's Anti-Lead set, third paragraph, I noticed a missing word. I think it was meant to say "Not many players." http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/sneasel
http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/tauros The Anger Management set does not have an ability listed. It should be Anger Point.
the Opinion paragraph for the GSC review of Moltres (http://www.smogon.com/gs/pokemon/moltres) is written very poorly. It has two syntax errors ("it's" and "2") and contains irrelevant/unhelpful information. The author also used first person.
http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/jirachi wish support, second paragraph should be who because mamoswine and flygon don't have to worry
The fourth paragraph of the Giratina "Great Wall" Set reads: Correct me if I'm wrong, but Outrage does in fact lock Giratina into a single attack. It should be Dragon Claw being mentioned as the not locking into a single attack, and Outrage for the extra power. Not Outrage accomplishing both.
that's probably trying to say that outrage won't lock you into a single attack if sleep talk selects it while you're asleep. i agree it's not really worded properly to convey that message though
In Steelix's analysis, there is some sort of HTML error, because the "Counters" heading is in the regular font. http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/steelix
When I checked this I didn't see any problem with the Counters section. However, it did have a small HTML tag error which might've caused that to happen in some browsers. It's been fixed now.

Perfect quality & perfect looking !
Só compro esta placa na Stewmac ... Melhor loja para luthier.
Stewmac is alright with me. They sent exactly what I wanted much quicker than I expected. I highly recommend Stewmac.
The dependability of Stewmac's product selection continues on. I ordered this type of material from a different company and it was worthless. What I ordered from here, it was perfect and sweet looking. It is more than enough to complete any project.
This material was great! The pearl was better looking than that on most Fender's I've seen. It was easy to work with, and as usual shipping was quick and packaged well. The price scares most people, but remember if you don't mess up there is enough material to cut two "Strat" sized guards

Cellar/Tasting Notes "This wine is farmed biodynamically although the vineyard is not certified. The 2010 Parral is a blend of 40% Malbec, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Bonarda that is aged in American and French oak. ..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A sleeper of the vintage, this impressive St. Emilion, made by Dominique Hebrard, exhibits a pure nose of red and black fruits intertwined with spice box, dried herbs, and subtle wood. Medium-bodied, beautifully concentrated, and pure with good acidity as well as ripe tannin, it should drink well..
Cellar/Tasting Notes PM "This superb Bordeaux style blend delivers sensual aromas and flavors of black cherry, black currant, (cassis) coffee, and mocha with a toasty oak note. Excellent!"
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Sandalwood, cinnamon, bergamot, and smoky evocation of crushed stone tinge sweet concentrate of black raspberry on the nose; then follow on a palate of already velvet-like textural richness yet vibratory intensity and positively refreshing primary juiciness. Notes of iodine, chard, shrimp shell,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Lots of plum and berry character, with hints of toasted oak and chocolate. Full body, with soft and velvety tannins and a long flavorful finish."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2012 Estate Red is a blend of 60% Malbec, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Shiraz aged 10 months in 100% new French oak. This killer red comes from Chakana-s two well-placed vineyards in southern Mendoza, Agrelo and Alta Mira. Aromas of flowers, blackberries, camphor, forest floor and subtle new..
Cellar/Tasting Notes A tiny property that produced a great wine in 2007. Sweet and ripe and lush on the palate with lovely red berry and chocolate flavors, good balance and a lovely fresh finish.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This 20+-acre vineyard, acquired by Gerard and Chantal Perse in 2001, is planted on a clay and limestone plateau. The 2009, a blend of 80% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, was cropped at 22 hectoliters per hectare, and possesses 14.2% alcohol. One of the top wines of the..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The basic Fontenil (95% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon) has a deep bluish purple color ... full-bodied, layered, opulent wine, with lots of black raspberry fruit intermixed with some blueberries and crushed rock ...

Wow! It's been a while since we updated this portion of our site... I suppose it's because we've been so BUSY!
Let's see... we've launched tons of new websites - here are a few notables:
... and many more!
Plus, we've also got some other BIG (GREAT) NEWS we'll be sharing in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!
Each year, something like $132 MILLION goes unclaimed because people don't know about the Earned Income Tax Credit. In times like these, hard working families deserve to be better informed - especially when there are volunteers in place to do their taxes for free. In addition, that's money that could be stimulating our local economy.
So, NovelProjects was happy to help one of our non-profit clients launch an awareness initiative for the EITC. Check it out here: www.eitc-carolinas.org
NovelProjects has launched the new e-commerce site for AudioSavings.com, a major online retailer based in New York. The improved e-commerce site features a great deal of custom application development, including advanced product searching and filtering, integration with eBay, and a "Deal of the Day" automatic product promotion tool. NovelProjects also made significant design enhancements, and the e-commerce site is search engine friendly with dynamic URL rewriting.
Check it out here: AudioSavings.com
NovelProjects is proud to sponsor Internet Summit 08 - a SOLD OUT event with over 50 nationally recognized speakers covering topics such as Internet entrepreneurship, search engine marketing, social networks, online reputation management, online advertising, search engine optimization, blogs, software as a service, the mobile Web, ecommerce, Internet security and e-mail marketing. If you attended, you may have met Mike McTaggart, our president, as he mingled among the more than 600 attendees. And of course, if you need some one-on-one regarding one of the above services, feel free to contact us.
Mike McTaggart, owner of NovelProjects, was a featured speaker on an entrepreneurship panel at Duke University during their annual E-Week - a week of guest speakers and events focused on "Bridging the Gap between the Lab and the Marketplace."
No longer content with only one table sport in the office, we decided to buy a pool table as well. It makes for a good cool-down session after a brutal game of the ping and pong.
Come on by and play a few rounds.
We've been working with Snaptotes a long time, and they came to us to launch their new site: Picstreet. The new site will feature the same customizable options that Snaptotes offers for their products.
You can check them out at www.Picstreet.com.
Nothing says "a job well done" like having a button that says "that was easy" for you.
After months of being displaced into the conference room of the Medical Society, we were finally able to move back into our new office. It feels good to have the space back after the inconvenience of working from an location that was difficult to suit our needs.
All the hardwoods are laid out, the walls are up and painted. It's time for us to move over to our new space. We'll see you guys on the other side.
We're still coordinating to get everything in place. It's getting close though, should be too much longer till we can move into the new office.

Model PC 11 6' long power cable is designed for use on all Humminbird 1100 Series™ Combos only. Waterproof.
Model PC 10 power cable measures 6' long and fits all Humminbird products produced since 1989, except 1100 Series. Waterproof.
Rated 4.5 out of 5 by 4
Rated 4 out of 5 by fishwalton Great for training
I purchased the cable to hook up my Humminbird 798ci HD si in the house so I could practice and learn the features. Use a small battery which will last for many hours. I thought it was a bit expensive until I saw that a spare Lowrance power cable is twice as expensive.

Rated 4 out of 5 by FinallyRetired Needed this!
I have been using a 130 for a couple years. Its been costing me over $100/year in AA batteries. I got this to power it from my trolling battery. Works great! Just need to put a 12v to 9v step down transformer in the line or you'll blow the sonar unit. This costs an additional $6.

Complex's The 50 Worst NBA Players To Wear Air Jordans
November 1st, 2012 by John Kim | 19 comments
The thought of living up to Michael Jordan's standards is frightening, isn't it? It would be tough to perform under the pressure of Jordan's watchful eye (Exhibit A: Kwame Brown), and over the years, the players in the NBA who rocked Air Jordans proudly didn't quite play on par of Jordan's approval, with the exception of Melo, Wade, and CP3. Complex gives us a nice retrospective of NBA players who wore Air Jordans, but in a unusual spin – ranking them 1-50 from bad to worst. Not all of these guys are official Jordan Brand athletes, but fans of the sneakers that just happened to wear them in-game, but do you agree with this list of the 50 worst NBA ballers to rock Jays? Check out some of their inclusions below and let us know what you think.
Check out the full list over at Complex.

Block Heater Battery
I have a 1995 Chevy 2500, 6.5L Turbo Diesel. I'm looking for portable power unit (A/C power) to plug the block heater into when I'm hunting for long periods (truck parked deep in the woods). How long would the following unit provide adequate power for the block heater to run?

02-27-2010, 10:08 AM #2Not long..... I'm gonna say less then half an hour...... which isn't enough for it to do anything....

Talking about being in the woods by 5:30am and getting out around 6:30 pm.... it can get pretty cold here in the winter, low teens/upper singles. Yea, 30 minutes would be pointless on my block heater.
thanks for the feedback!

"Suburban" There is no Substitute.:great:
SOLD - My Loaded up 02 2500 Suburban.
05-17-2010, 05:45 AM #5That unit has a 28 amp hour battery. That's not much at 12 volts. Basically means you could run a 2.5 amp device (at 120 volts) for about an hour. The half hour estimate would be just about right for a 500 watt block heater.
I think you have two options. First, a suitcase generator. The Honda's are super super quiet. You can stand right next to a running one and talk on your cell phone.
Probably a better option is a propane fired block heater. I've heard of them, for just what you are doing.When you hear hoofbeats, look for horses not zebras.

For ambitious cyclists, seeking improved cycling performance, the Polar CS500 presents the ultimate functional design for the ride. Take your training to the limits with daily personal heart rate target zones that optimise training, quick and safe control courtesy of the a rocker switch and oversized user-configurable display and complimented by altitude measurement that displays the inclines and declines of your ride. The Polar CS500 also guarantees interference-FREE transmission courtesy of W.I.N.D technology. Full features:Your cycling cadence stands for your pedaling rate in revolutions per minute (rpm). Cadence is the central factor in improving cycling performance. A higher cadence reduces the force needed for each pedal stroke, and thus improves overall performance. Running cadence measures how many times your either right or left foot hits the ground in one minute. Running cadence is measured as steps per minute. With this feature you can sharpen your cadence and make your ground contact time shorter. This will help you to find a balance between leg power and leg speed. Altitude is measured with an atmospheric air pressure sensor and shown as ascended and descended meters/feet and uphill/downhill steepness in percentages and grades.An automatic age-based target zone helps you train safely and effectively, determining your heart rate target zone limits automatically according to your age-based maximum heart rate (220 minus age). Heart rate is the measurement of the work your heart does. The CS500 allows you to set intensity targets in a number of ways and get a visual or audible alarm when you go outside of those present zones.
At the heart of your training is the coded T31. Its purpose is simple: to transmit your heart rate to your wrist unit. Slim and light, the ECG (electrocardiogram) accurate transmitter is fully water resistant and designed for all weather conditions. Built to last with up to 2500 hours of training usage. Prevents cross-talk from other electrical devices for accurate measurement of your training.

TEAM TWIST O FAT Intro: So in all of my time at Smogon, I still have not posted a Rate My Team. In a metagame where offensive teams are rampant and thriving, I wanted to attain a balance of both offense and defense, a team that could combat most opposing teams without resorting to either "heavy offense" or "heavy stall". This was definitely tougher than it sounds, considering I needed some typically offensive Pokemon to fill defensive niches on the team, resulting in a change of many standard movesets. The team originally was crafted for the OU tier, with Vapereon over Manaphy. However, the true success of this team came on the suspect ladder, where the account "Twist O Fat" cruised to an almost 1700 CRE and a 1905 rating (for all you number whores). In the upcoming team analysis, I will show how Manaphy as well as my other team members handled the majority of threats in the metagame, and why this team was so successful. If you look at the team at a glance, I am sure you will find very common weaknesses. These will be covered in the threat list, and I will do my best to list the ways I deal with these problems. Nonetheless, I've played around a majority of Pokemon during the Manaphy suspect test, including Manaphy itself, and the team's performance backs up my somewhat unorthodox team. As a side note, I use Manaphy in a completely different manner than the majority of suspect players, so if you want to find out, keep reading! Closer look: Roserade (M) @ Focus Sash Ability: Natural Cure EVs: 4 HP / 252 Sp.Att / 252 Speed Timid nature (+Speed, -Atk) - Toxic Spikes - Leaf Storm - Sleep Powder - HP Ground Roserade is in my opinion the best lead in the metagame. With the amount of Metagross and Heatran leads, I find Roserade the perfect lead to both cripple opposing leads with Sleep Powder, set up Toxic Spikes early game to aid my offensive mons, and hit hard with the combination of Leaf Storm and Hidden Power Ground. The EV's are quite basic; maximize speed to get the jump on some lax base 100s, and max special attack to hit as hard with Leaf Storm / Hidden Power Ground Hidden Power Ground may seem like a ridiculous option, but it lets me get the jump on those common lead Heatrans and Metagrosses, who for some reason love to stay in on Roserade. The combination of Sleep Powder and Hidden Power Ground usually removes Heatran's Shuca Berry, forcing them to switch and allowing me to get an early layer up. This lead plays in no way like a suicide lead. I do not play recklessly and simply sacrifice Roserade in order to get two layers of Toxic Spikes out. As you will soon see, Roserade is my most common way of dealing with Suicune and on the suspect ladder, Manaphy. The sash is what really saves my ass on multiple occassions, though I may get some criticism for using it in conjuction with Tyranitar. I'll get to that soon. Skarmory @ Shed Shell Ability: Keen Eye EVs: 252 HP / 200 Def / 36 SpD / 20 Spe Impish nature (+Def, -SpA) - Whirlwind - Spikes - Roost - Brave Bird Skarmory provides the second form of residual damage, in the form of Spikes and Whirlwind. On typical stall teams, Skarmory is usually used in conjuction with other physical walls to remove strain on Skarmory. Unfortunately, with the nature of this team, I rely on Skarmory a little bit too much. Countering threats like Scizor and physical Jirachi is really important for this team to function; however, I also rely on Skarmory to beat stuff like Tyranitar and sometimes Lucario. Not the smartest option I know, but I do have ways of revenge-killing. The EV spread was ripped right from Obi's infamous stall team. Max HP allows for Skarmory to take many, and the remaining EV's are primarily placed in defense to take the most physical hits possible. The 20 Speed EV's are the only change from Obi's spread, so that I get the jump on opposing Skarmory and almost always outspeed Tyranitar trying to Stone Edge for the 2HKO. Shed Shell is obvious because of stupid Magnezone. Tyranitar @ Leftovers Ability: Sand Stream EVs: 252 HP / 40 Atk / 216 SpD Sassy nature (+Sp.Def, -Speed) - Stealth Rock - Earthquake - Flamethrower - Crunch Special defensive Tyranitar without the Choice Band, and Stealth Rock over Pursuit to complete the entry hazards that this team relies on. Flamethrower is for all those incoming Scizors, and even Skarmory who apparently like to come in on Tyranitar. Although not so common on stall teams, Tyranitar is the perfect fit for this style of team, providing a strong offense with very underrated defensive capabilities. Tyranitar holds the team together, taking out special attackers such as Jolteon, Rotom, Azelf, etc. I usually don't mind Rotom's Will-O-Wisp because of Heatran, so I somewhat recklessly play Tyranitar to open holes for my last three members to wreck havok. Along with those offensive threats, Tyranitar acts as my way to defeat things like Cresselia, Zapdos, and annoying ghosts. Tyranitar also tends to be my first Blissey switch-in, allowing for an easy setup of Stealth Rock. With the very specially defensive EV Spread, Tyranitar also serves as the Latias check on the standard ladder. Essentially, Tyranitar covers the holes that heavy stall teams usually have (last Pokemon Calm Mind sweepers, for example). Oh, so I'm sure some people will state the counterproductivity of Focus Sash and Sandstorm. I usually save Tyranitar as late as possible, or make sure Roserade has enough survivability in order to ignore the 6% loss in health each turn. Usually, Roserade and Sandstorm doesn't conflict in terms of the overall team goal, so I'd rather keep it. Heatran @ Leftovers Ability: Flash Fire EVs: 4 HP / 252 Sp.Att / 252 Speed Timid Nature (+Speed, -Att) - Fire Blast - Earth Power - Substitute - Toxic Heatran takes all the fire attacks aimed at Roserade and Skarmory, and turns the Flash Fire boost into a devastating offensive onslaught. With Toxic Spikes support, Blissey cannot stand up to the combination of Substitute and Fire Blast. Earth Power is for other Heatran (which I only attack under a Substitute) and Tyranitar. Toxic is for bulky waters such as Gyarados that avoid Toxic Spikes, and even things like Zapdos that can be extremely annoying (especially SubRoost varients). Heatran is another one of those Pokemon that represents a good balance of offensive and defensive capabilities. With the potential to take unboosted special attacks (bar Ground attacks and some Fighting attacks), Heatran also acts as a somewhat secondary counter to things like Azelf and possibly Gengar (as you will see in the threat list, Gengar is the single biggest issue this team has). Because of its Steel typing, I usually end up switching this into Draco Meteors at times, and possibly Outrages depending on if Skarmory is still alive or dead. Gengar @ Leftovers Ability: Levitate EVs: 4 HP / 252 Sp.Att / 252 Speed Timid nature (+Speed, -Att) - Shadow Ball - Thunderbolt - Focus Blast - Hidden Power Fire Ahh Gengar....wait used as a spin blocker, are you insane ToF??? Well, I find that the element of surprise can be quite handy in breaking down an opponents team. Gengar is the glue of the team. Its multiple resistances allow me to easily switch it in, and I don't fear those common Pursuiters because of Focus Blast and Hidden Power Fire. I usually have entry hazards up as well so Tyranitar doesn't stand a chance at surviving. Most Scizors predict my switch-out and Pursuit, only to get nailed by a Hidden Power Fire. If I can tell that Scizor is Bullet Punching, I can go to Skarmory and Roost off the damage or Heatran and sit pretty behind a Substitute. Hidden Power Fire also has the additional benefit of beating Forretress, who is becoming more and more special defensive to in fact beat Gengar on heavy-stall teams. They won't get the chance to Payback, and meet a suprise death. Stuff like Donphan and Starmie also get hit relatively hard by Shadow Ball, so Gengar actually makes a very potent spin blocker. The rest of the moves are all for the optimal coverage. Shadow Ball to hit Infernape hard, and Thunderbolt to hit Manaphy super-effectively, as well as random bulky waters like Suicune and Vaporeon. The EV spread is as basic as many of the rest of my team members; maximize speed and special attack to hit hardest and most effectively. And finally...the unorthodox use of Manaphy! Manaphy @ Leftovers Ability: Hydration EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Sp.Def Bold nature (+Def, -Att) - Surf - Ice Beam - Hidden Power Electric - Rest So a defensive Manaphy that is an inferior Suicune huh? One again, the element of surprise is quite effective in beating the common threats of the metagame. At a quick glance, DD Gyarados runs through my current team. So, lets try HP Electric Manaphy shall we? I usually end up switching Manaphy in while Gyarados DD's. The opponent, expecting no threat from Manaphy, usually DD's again. To his/her dismay, Manaphy HP Electrics Gyarados for the KO quite easily, also leaving me at full health. As simple as it sounds, this is often the case haha. Manaphy also is my DDMence check, being able to take a +1 Life Orb Outrage with 20% or so left. Often, Gyarados comes in after DDMence takes a chunk of Manaphy's life, and tries to Dragon Dance, letting me take out two Pokemon easily. I'd actually not trade Manaphy for something like Suicune in this spot for the sheer unpredictability, though after this rate my team I might have to consider it =). Conclusion Ok, so I know that some of you raters are probably looking at this team like complete trash because of the way it handles threats haha. Realistically, I had no "counter" for Manaphy on the suspect ladder, and any form of Salamence really hurt me. Although uncommon, Gengar can completely wreck this team, and I use to rely on my own Gengar to speed tie it before I ran HP Fire (curse the drop in the speed IV =/). Nonetheless, the reason I was so successful with this team reaching 1 on the suspect ladder was because I played around many threats, relying on residual damage + Gengar usually to clean up. I rarely let stat-up Pokemon get boosts in, as they are probably the biggest problem to this relatively slow team. I'm open to all suggestions as to how to alter/better this team, as it really is my favorite team to play with, and arguably my most successful. Oh, and if there's anything to take away from this Rate My Team, it's that unorthodox sets do work provided you support them properly =) Thanks for your time, I hope I didn't mess up too much, and look forward to reading some comments. Oh, I ripped some formatting from Vashta / HECTOR's RMT, so thanks to him for an awesome template. Edit: I'll post a threat list later, probably attached to this post. Defensive Threats Blissey - Yeah, residual damage + stalling with Gengar and Heatran means that Blissey never is really a problem. Added to the fact that I have Tyranitar, Blissey isn't living long. Bronzong - Skarmory can come in on virtually everything, and Heatran is always there to KO with Fire Blast. Celebi - Heatran is the safest switch-in (barring Thunder Wave), and Skarmory is pretty decent to get a few layers out. Even Roserade can come in and get Toxic Spikes out. A non-issue really. Cresselia - Tyranitar, Gengar both hit it super-effectively from both ends of the spectrum. Heatran can stall with Substitute. Donphan - Lol...rarely see this thing, but Gengar can come in on Earthquake, and Manaphy can threaten it with Surf or Ice Beam. Dusknoir - Tyranitar can Crunch it, Gengar can Shadow Ball it. Heatran can absorb WoW's and hit it hard with Fire Blast. Forretress - No room to set-up on this team or spin at all. Pretty self-explanitory. Gliscor - Manaphy and Gengar are the only real ways to deal with this. Gyarados - Manaphy, and probably Manaphy alone. Hippowdon - Not an issue with Toxic Spikes, residual damage, and Roserade/Manaphy. Jirachi - Depends on the varient. Scarf/Physical varients are taken care of by Skarmory, allowing me to set up layers, and CMRachi is completely shut down by Tyranitar. Heatran can come in relatively easily depending on the attack as well. Rotom-A - Tyranitar + Heatran is my way of dealing with all Rotom forms. Skarmory - Yeah, another non-factor, considering how many of my Pokemon hit it super-effectively; little room for Skarmory to set up Spikes, much like Forretress. Snorlax - I guess Skarmory is the only real way of dealing with this; Curselax could be a problem, so I'd have to wear it down and then KO with Gengar. Suicune - If Roserade dies, Crocune can beat me pretty handily. Gengar doesn't do enough with Thunderbolt without a Life Orb to beat a +2 Suicune. Can be a problem. Swampert - Residual damage + Skarmory + Roserade means Swampert isn't a problem. Tentacruel - I guess this could be troublesome for Gengar as Thunderbolt would be a 3HKO without residual damage. I'll just deal with it via Tyranitar. Tyranitar - Residual damage + Skarmory I guess. Somewhat of a problem, though Cursetar isn't an issue at all with Gengar. Vaporeon - Toxic Spikes + Roserade. Gengar can hit it super-effectively, and Manaphy can always stall it. Zapdos - Tyranitar handles it handily. Offensive Threats Azelf - Tyranitar shuts Azelf down. Breloom - I guess its problematic, just let something take the sleep and rely on Gengar or Skarmory. Dunno really =/ Dragonite - The same way I deal with Salamence, rely on Skarmory and Gengar if necessary to revenge-kill. Dugtrio - Skarmory...nuff said. Electivire - Smart switching to get Gengar in means Electivire takes residual damage + sandstorm damage. Gallade - Gengar to absorb the Close Combat, and then Heatran to take the Shadow Sneak. Smart switching again wears it down. Gengar - The biggest problem to this team. Life Orb Gengar can 6-0 my team if Tyranitar takes any prior damage. Need help here =/ Gyarados - Manaphy again. Heatran - Tyranitar, Manaphy, and if necessary, my own Heatran to take fire attacks. Heracross - Prediction beats this basically. Gengar on the Close Combat, Heatran on the Megahorn, Skarmory on the Stone Edge. I guess Swords Dance is a problem lol. Infernape - Gengar to revenge-kill or come in on predicted Close Combats. Everything else through smart switching. Jolteon - Tyranitar simply. Kingdra - Yeah this thing can be a bitch. Rain Dance varients specifically, since Skarmory can phaze the DD'er. Just have to play Tyranitar smart and negate the rain. Lucario - Heh...Bullet Punch varients beat me handily...luckily, not many carry it now. Gengar is quite a decent check. Machamp - Somewhat problematic, just play around it till I get to Skarmory. Magnezone - Tyranitar basically. Mamoswine - Skarmory, even Manaphy. Metagross - Skarmory for the most part, Heatran on predicted Steel attacks. Porygon-Z - Tyranitar and Heatran, mostly Tyranitar. Salamence - DD is taken care of by Manaphy. Mixmence is as much of a problem as Lucario. I guess i just use SR to wear it down, and then kill with Gengar. That and smart switching to add up sandstorm and life orb damage. Scizor - Not a problem with Heatran, HP Fire Gengar, and Skarmory. Starmie - Tyranitar basically. Togekiss - Tyranitar and Heatran are my main ways to beat it. Tyranitar - Problematic I guess, depending on the speed they run. If its faster than Skarmory and Stone Edges, I'm in some trouble. Weavile - Skarmory. Yanmega- Tyranitar I guess, maybe Heatran if it doesn't have HP Ground. Zapdos - Tyranitar again. Thanks to LR for the threat list!
Beautiful team. Why not try substitute on your Gengar? I guess it would build up residual damage REALLY fast but if you make one wrong prediction then you lose Gengar. I also have a question as to how do you handle SD Roost Scizor once Heatran has pretty much killed himself? You can phaze it off during the match but if it is your oponents last pokemon then you are screwed from what I am seeing.
Fixed, guess I shouldn't manually write-out everything. I guess that's just another one of those problem Pokemon haha. I guess I'd have to get Gengar in as quick as possible on a Roost, so that I survive the BP and HP Fire for the kill. Sub on Gengar is too situational IMO, and I really need the coverage that those four moves provide.
How does this team handle SD lucario if it has bullet punch. Unless manaphy survives the +2 LO Close Combat with SR up (I doubt it because that OHKOs skarm) than it 6-0s your team. Do you just not let it set up? You could try a bulkier ghost like rotom A but you say gengar is your glue.
I'm afraid I have to disagree here. I've been one of the primary users of Substitute Gengar on the Suspect Test, and I can certainly attest to its success. Your problem might be that you misuse the set - I don't know - but it all depends on how you play it. If you're carrying Hidden Power Fire to hit Scizor/Forretress, then I think Substitute still remains a more beneficial option. If you're faced against these Pokémon, you can either switch straight to Heatran to force even more switches, or simply Focus Blast for good damage. I think running HP Fire in exchange for a 30 Speed IV is not worth it, but that's just me. Other than that, nice team. I don't think we battled much during the testing either.
Umm, HP Electric off 236 SpA to 236 SpD (0 EV investment for gyarados) does a maximum of 243 damage to gyarados. IMO, porygon2 actually looks better for this role, trace means the mence/gyara is left at -1 or neautral depending on what they do on the switch. Then thunderbolt/discharge takes down gyarados, and ice beam takes down mences and with the toxic, discharge, ice beam, recover moveset it can even takes down other walls.
Well, I see where you are coming from, but without HP Fire, both Scizor and Forretress beat me with Bullet Punch / Pursuit and Gyro Ball / Payback. I don't think the maximum speed IV is significant except for other Gengar, who trouble this team anyway, so I doubt I'll go back. I still outspeed Infernape, and Latias, which is important to this team in terms of revenge-killing. P2 might do this better, but the point of the team was to showcase unorthodox ways of utilizing Pokemon, and the fact of the matter is that Manaphy never runs HP Electric, which makes opposing Gyarados get greedy. I think you are forgetting Stealth Rock, which make it a KO.
Hey ToF, I'm just wondering how you handle stall teams. You seem to have dismissed all individual components of stall teams in your defensive threat list. (see Blissey, Skarmory, Hippowdon). It seems like most of your team gets completely walled by a team as such. Manaphy, Gengar, and Roserade are completely walled by Blissey. Most stall teams usually have a Swampert or Hippowdon or Gliscor which can beat Tyranitar. Skarmory isn't getting anywhere. Heatran CAN beat Blissey with Sub + Toxic, but there's usually another member on stall teams that could handle that Heatran. (Tentacruel or Refresh Latias?) Also, the same stall teams could carry Heal Bell or Aromatherapy. IDK if I'm missing something big, but it just seems that you're likely to get outstalled by a stall team before outstalling Blissey, Hippowdon, etc. with T.Spikes and Spikes. Anyways, awesome team!
Great job at putting this team together. I don't see any problem except one. Cracking stall open may be kinda difficult since you have no TRUE wall breaker. T-tar can do a Little but he may have problems even dealing with some Sp. Def walls. It appears that Blissey can just wall you to death, since you have no real Physical threat. Your T-tar hits 314 Attack which is not hardly enough to deal with Blissey.
Alright it seems that you have to do a lot of switching in the beginning of the game due to you have three pokemon that have to set up either Toxic Spikes, Spikes, and Stealth Rocks this way when switching your easily allowing your opponent to set up on you then sweep your entire team. Like Dragon Dance gyrados will be able to get 1-2 Dragon Dances then Roserade will die if it has ice fang or even by a earthquake. Then Stone edge on Skarm will OHKO it after 2 Dragon Dances. Waterfall will OHKO heatran. Waterfall will OHKO Gengar, and Tyranitar. The it out speeds manaphy, and a stone edge, and it's gone. I would suggest Stone edge over SR on tyranitar, but don't worry you will regain SR. This way Gyrados won't be a problem when it's switching in or any flying/Dragon type. Then remove Spikes on Skarmory, and add Stealth rocks since theirs too mainly flying or levitaters on a team. Also Stealth Rocks shuffle with WhirlWind is more accurate it hits all pokes. - Good team in all.
It is not a problem at all. In fact, heavy stall is what this team is probably best defeating. For one thing, Roserade gets Toxic Spikes up almost instantaneously against opposing stall leads. Hippowdon, Swampert, even Tyranitar all lose to Roserade, and I can then proceed to Toxic Spike with ease. This severely limits the capabilities of Blissey. For one thing, Blissey switches in, then switches out after I bring Tyranitar in, giving me a free Stealth Rock. The residual damage adds up, and they can't spin my stuff away since, you know, Gengar beats most of the spinners. Since they can't get their hazards out, I just proceed to stall...its quite simple. Stall is probably the easiest thing for this team to dismantle (and I mean 6-0 quite easily). You don't need a wall-breaker to beat stall...entry hazards work just as well against opposing stall teams. Besides, most of my stuff is immune to one entry hazard or another, and I have Roserade to absorb opposing Toxic Spikes, so yeah.
There isn't any point in me trying to fix the weaknesses that the suspect ladder holds (Huge Tail Glow + 3 attacks manaphy weakness, but you already know that) so I'll gear my rate towards standard. Very nice team Twist, I was about to say stall weakness as soon as I saw gengar, but you're running hp fire which is okay (falls short of the KO doesn't it? like 95ish% IIRC). Foretress can come in on skarmory and roserade after something has slept though. But yes, if you do mispredict against special forre, stall becomes a lot harder to beat, but considering your skill, I don't foresee too many problems. On Heatran, toxic doesn't seem to be covering much considering you do have tspikes support, gyarados is beaten by manaphy anyway. I'd like you to replace toxic with roar, considering the amount of entry hazards support you have, it is going to wear down it's counters a lot faster than toxic would, it's also nice for greedy suicunes try to CM up against heatran, who again, toxic does jack all to. Manaphy, I'm guessing rest is to abuse other team's rain dance? Also.. Magnezone - Obviously a threat because of my Steel types. However, Tyranitar takes little from it, and P2 can trap it back with Magnet Pull. You don't have a porygon-2.... If you want suggestions for the standard ladder, consider dropping manaphy for, you guessed it vaporeon. Vaporeon will fare better against LO gengar (I think) then suicune (yes, LO tbolt if gonna hurt like hell, but you should be able to take one, and can protect on the explosion), and wish support is really nice for something like special ttar and heatran, who are bulky enough to be consistently passed wish support. Hp Electric surf wish protect is the way to go. Also gives you an emergency way to beat crocune (as long as you're not foolish enough to let it consistently rest to waste PP. Yes you will lose in the end, but, if you can smartly predict suicune wasting CM pp you can switch in and out if you're smart enough to not let your other pokes get hit by surf). Quite a big sub + Toxic zapdos weakness, yes you can crunch + Eq on the roost, but that's not reliable (who's to say zapdos will stay in anyway?). Also, special skarmory doesn't find it too hard to set up against this team, especially since tyranitar's EQ won't do that much with the pitiful investment in attack.

Gold: Sandy's Economic Impact on Shopping
Hurricane Sandy, a rare, late season storm, is already having a significant economic impact and is poised to be one for the record books in both meteorological and economic terms.
The exact amount of economic impact Sandy will have cannot be finalized until well after the event; however, this storm has the potential to be larger than Hurricane Irene, which had an estimated $10-$15 billion impact last year and was in the "Top 10" most costly hurricanes.
Sandy will slow down after making landfall and is not only poised to impact the major cities of the Northeast including New York City, Boston, Philadelphia, and Washington DC/Baltimore, but will leave impressions on interior markets such as Buffalo, Harrisburg, Syracuse, and Albany, as well as Canadian cities such as Toronto and Ottawa.
When everything gets tallied up, Sandy is estimated to have an influence over one-third of the population of the U.S.
For the hardest hit areas, the economic impact will be driven by insurance losses and lost productivity due to people staying home.
Most major retailers have at least 10% of their store base in Sandy's path, with impacts varying by type of business. There are several types of businesses that experience a net-negative when it comes to events such as Sandy. Shoppers generally avoid malls during hurricanes, and since consumers are purchasing "must have" items, any "nice to have items" fall off of shopping lists. This means Sandy will be a net-negative to apparel and mall based retailers such as department, toy, jewelry, and sporting goods stores.
Sandy Impact on Retailers
Restaurants can experience a mixed impact, with fast food and casual dining often seeing a surge in traffic in advance of the storm, particularly along any evacuation routes. More formal dining locations often see a drop in customers.

By Myra P. Saefong and William L. Watts, MarketWatch
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Gold futures settled higher Tuesday, reclaiming some lost ground after a three-session decline amid signs of stepped-up demand in Asia.
Gold for February delivery rose $15.90 an ounce, or 1%, to settle at $1,662.20 on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Prices recouped a portion of the 2.5% drop it suffered over the three previous trading sessions.
The Shanghai Gold Exchange reported a sharp climb in physical gold trading on Monday, according to analysts.
The apparent increase in demand comes less than five weeks ahead of China's Lunar New Year. The holiday begins on Feb. 10.
"Gold historically has shown a tendency for strong demand, and prices, in the second half of January," said Brien Lundin, editor of Gold Newsletter. "This can be largely attributed to demand from China in the run-up to the Chinese New Year celebrations."
The increase in seasonal demand is "good for gold and offsetting fundamental weakness elsewhere," said Jeff Wright, managing director at Global Hunter Securities. "Otherwise, the ongoing gold correction would be more pronounced."
Deutsche Bank cuts outlook
Against this backdrop, Deutsche Bank joined other institutions that have cut their outlooks on gold prices, revising lower its 2013 and 2014 forecasts on Tuesday.
Deutsche Bank reduced its average gold forecast for this year by 12.1% to $1,856 an ounce, as well as by 5% to $1,900 an ounce for 2014. See: Deutsche Bank is latest to cut gold price forecast.
Deutsche Bank analyst Daniel Brebner cited as factors that could limit gold's potential upside a heightened appetite for more conventional assets, such as U.S. equities, as well as a growing conviction that the dollar is likely to strengthen. A stronger dollar would undercut gold and other commodities priced in the currency.
AIG, Alcoa and gold in market mix
AIG's considering taking part in a lawsuit against the U.S. government over terms of its bailout, while gold prices look to snap a three-day losing streak. Later, Alcoa ushers in the fourth-quarter earnings season. (Photo: Reuters)
For now, David Houle, co-founder and portfolio manager at Season Investments LLC, said gold is likely "bottoming and will begin finding additional support going forward."
"The high-profile hedge-fund redemptions that were likely weighing on prices in [the fourth quarter] are now behind us, and sentiment is washed out and poised for a reversal," he added.
Also, the last time Congress went to war over the debt ceiling and the budget in late summer of 2011, "gold prices shot up over 20% while equities declined substantially," according to Houle. "As we near what could be a similar impasse toward the end of February, we could end up seeing a similar dynamic occur in the markets."
Meanwhile, silver, which is notoriously more volatile than gold, saw its March contract tack on 38 cents, or 1.3%, to $30.47 an ounce, extending a 0.5% gain from the previous session.
Deutsche Bank also cut its price outlook for silver, by 16.8% to $37 an ounce for 2013 and by 5% to $38 for 2014.
In other metals futures Tuesday, March copper closed down less than a cent, or 0.2%, to $3.67 a pound. April platinum gained $26.90, or 1.7%, to $1,583.20 an ounce, with the March contract for sister metal palladium down $2.15, or 0.3%, to $667.85 an ounce.

Contractor killed in fall from tree in Md.
Tuesday - 7/3/2012, 6:23pm  ET
BALTIMORE - Emergency management officials say a contractor who fell from a tree in Garrett County has died. His death is the fourth storm-related fatality in Maryland.
Edward McDonough, spokesman for the Maryland Emergency Management Agency, said Tuesday that the contractor was removing limbs from a storm-damaged tree in the Oakland area Monday when he fell 30 to 40 feet and died.
Earlier storm deaths include a man who died after a boat capsized off southern Maryland, and a woman who died when a tree crashed into her home.

The One Cent Weekend in Venice Mistake
This is why it's not a waste of time to sit around, surfing the internet and wishing you could book your dream vacation in a near or far away land. Because sometimes you actually do find an amazing deal!
Over 200 lucky Sunday night armchair travelers managed to book a one cent weekend at the Crowne Plaza Hotel Venice East-Quarto D'Altino, which admittedly is located a brisk 20 minute train ride outside of Venice. But still in Italy!
Okay, maybe it isn't the Hotel Danieli on the Piazza San Marco, but did you catch that part about a weekend stay for just one cent? For that price I think most of us would be delighted to take the commuter rail into Venice!
Even though the deal was posted by mistake, the Crowne Plaza is honoring the 1,400 room nights booked while it was up, costing the company about $130k. They will probably make up the difference in the positive publicity!

Super Aguri shows off definitive bodywork
Super Aguri ran a brief shakedown test a Silverstone today (Tuesday) and in the processs gave us the first look at the car they will start the 2006 season with. They've made all the changes I identified in a previous posting. The surpsise is how extensive the changes are. When you consider that this is only an interim car, their fabricators and aerodynamicists have been very busy. PItpass once again has a gallery from the test (which also included MF1). The changes as far as I can tell from the photos are:-
- Front-wing and nose: The front-wing is raised the regulation 15cm above the reference plane. As I predicted (when I thought the changes would be minimal), they kept the front-wing as-is and shortened the mounting to the nosecone. Surprisingly they've got a new nosecone. The new one has a slight droop at the tip. It's hard to imagine that droop - still far above the actual wing and far forward of the flap (compare with the Williams) - has much effect on the efficiency of the wing itslef. Did they have to make new nosecones to comply with increased crash-test requirements? (I'll have to check on that). It seems a strange use of resources otherwise, given how simplistic the front-wing is by current F1 standards. I predict they will be very short on front downforce with no spoon section in the centre of the wing, and with no add-on wings like the Renault or a second flap like the McLaren.
- Bodywork between the front wheels is raised by 5cm. This not only looses the lowest part of the twin keels,
but also the small horizontal shelf at the bottom of them as well as a small turning vane mounted between that and the front of the main bargeboards. UPDATED: I've now seen photos of the car with the wheels removed and these parts are still there, just mounted higher.
- The rear wing is completely revised with the mainplane moving forward as per 2005 rule changes and the deeper endplates as per 2004 rule changes. There is a single flap also as per 2004 rules and the obligatory notch out of the endplate behind the flap. There are none of the now fashionable drag-reducing slots in the endplates ahead of the flap and the wing elements are two dimensional. This is to be expected - short on wind-tunnel time to fine-tune the interim bodywork and being short on front-end downforce anyway, the rear wing hasn't had the detailed design of other cars.
- The outter channels of the diffuser are now reduced in height as-per 2005 regulations. Although there aren't any photos of the rear of the car available (why is that, do photographers think nobody will be interested in the back or do they just get bored by the time the car has passed them?), you can now see daylight between the rear wheels and the central diffuser section from the side view.
- By far the biggest surprise is the revisions between the front and back of the car. The engine cover complies with the 2004 silhouette rule as expected. There is also a maximum-width airbox wing (not in some of the photos but it is in the autosport.com gallery).
- The sidepods are extensively revised as per contemporary trends. There is a small and somewhat inexplicable shoulder winglet at the top-outter leading edge of the sidepod, the sidepods are undercut quite significantly (compare with the definitive Toyota TF106B bodywork). The bodywork around the radiators is wrapped almost as tightly as many new 2006 cars and there is also a full array of winglets ahead of the rear wheels. Also featured is a large chimney. This was taped off for the Silverstone test due to the very cold weather here. If they can open that up for Bahrain it should leave them with enough cooling. The original Arrows bodywork didn't feature chimneys so I assume all cooling was from the rear - not possible with the tighter bodywork of the SA05.
In all then I'd have to say I'm surprised and impressed with the work Super Aguri have been able to accomplish in the short time available. While the front-wing is disappointing and the rear-wing not as developed as the competition (even at the back of the field), the central bodywork looks impressive. Whether it works as well as it looks is another thing entirely. The final Minardi - the PS05 - had some pretty contemporary bodywork last year and still struggled to beat a two year old Jordan (admittedly with a more powerful engine).
That Minardi suffered from a dire lack of wind-tunnel time and I expect the SA05 will be in the same position. It's not clear if Super Aguri received wind-tunnel models with the cars they bought from Paul Stoddart. If they didn't they surely wouldn't have spent the money to have one made and there probably wouldn't have been time to anyway. WIthout models all you can do is put the actual car in a full-size wind-tunnel (like the one at MIRA) and make up a few full-size parts and see how they work out. Thus, the large parts like the engine cover were likely designed "by eye" with the wings and winglets recieving the most development time.
I still think reliability will be the biggest concern for Super Aguri. Everyone expects them to be at the tail of the field with this car, so the most important thing will be to stay on track as long as possible to maximise their exposure (and to be fair, they will learn more as a team as well). With the strength of the Honda engine and the posibility that the new bodywork is effective, there is the slightest of chances that SA may outpace MF1, but it seems unlikely. Still, given the effort they have clearly put in to this car, I wish them all the best.

For the ninth year in a row, a family-run nursery in Long Island is sending hundreds of Christmas trees, menorahs and holiday cards to American service men and women serving in the Middle East.
Dees' Nursery in Oceanside and international shipping company DHL will load a plane at JFK Airport on Monday for 'DHL Operation Holiday Cheer.'
"We've all teamed up and it's turned into this wonderful event," owner Joe DiDominica told Good Day NY ahead of the delivery.
Along with the trees come all the trimmings and holiday cards handwritten by local school children.
"The best part is the greeting cards from kids all over the area," said DiDominica who continued the tradition started by his father.
The NYPD, Nassau County Police and several local departments provide a police escort to the airport of the truck loaded with large carts and boxes destined for Afghanistan and Bahrain.
This year, more than two dozen families affected by superstorm Sandy will also receive Christmas trees from Dees' Nursery.
