Before it dies off unseen, I maybe should advertise the Bay12 Pokemon League, here where people might lurk who have not seen it yet.


Battle your pets to the death! Because just fighting anonymous people on showdown that never say a word and ragequit as soon as you used espeon to bounce their stealthrocks is rather boring. Share your replays, take part in bay12 tournaments, etc.

I think the Fairy-type is just good in general. Being only weak to Poison and Steel, although, to be fair, Scizor comes with Bullet Punch and a Mega Evolution, so hahaha, maybe I should get one myself. Personally, I think I like Jolteon, since I haven't really used Glaceon or Leafeon (I skipped Gen 4 and 5).

well, anyone who leaves sylveon in against scizor or heatran obviously has no idea what he is doing.


I also find it rather funny when people start setting up on my sylveon, thinking it to be either a wishpasser or a calm mind set (in either of those cases florgess outclasses it anyway), and then suddenly find out that I run my sylveon as



Sylveon @ Choice Specs
Ability: Pixilate
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 HP / 4 SDef
Modest Nature
- Hyper Beam
- Hyper Voice
- Psyshock
- Shadow Ball


full investment into special attack makes a huge different. A defensive Sylveon needs 5 hits for a metagross. This Sylveon routinely OHKOs metagross. And Hypervoice can even take care of Klefki...given that the parafusion hax is merciful on me. And while many consider hyperbeam a wasted moveslot (yes, hidden power:ground would be very welcome), carrying a tactical nuke has it's merits. Nobody ever sees it coming, and sometimes you just gotta need that opponent dead NOW. Given you have the patience to wait for the proper moment, this move makes the game.


I find it odd that everyone keeps trying to make Sylveon just into another Vaporeon. Sylveon deserves a spotlight, not just a support role.

Oh, yeah, Sylveon's got one of the -ate abilities. Those things are crazy. The 30% boost to Fairy-type moves... Doesn't that make Hyper Beam like base 195 or something? I put a Hyper Beam on my Aurorus, too, because of Refrigerate.

pretty overlooked eeveelution. now that flareon finaly has flareblitz, well....it hasn't much going for itself to show it's superiority to other eevees. If only the shiny version would be an autumn-colored one, then I'd love it.


how do you run your leafeon?




also yep, +stab to take it to almost 300, stronger than explosion (unless explosion is stab+normal gem, but only few mons pull that off). If you got rid of all enemy mons that can easily set up on your recharge, it's pretty neat to have.


I do however also run a sylveon with hp-ground. perfect move for predition purposes. people keep sending in heatran to deal with sylveon....hehe.. Only really worth it though if you can predict rather safely that the enemy will switch out

Yeah, Sylveon is brutal.

Between the Eeveelutions, I think Sylveon, Espeon, and Jolteon are all tied for power and usefulness.

Espeon because magic bounce is bullshit.

Sylveon is so tanky and is fairy type, which is a big pain in the ass. Also has a large movepool so it's hard to know what it'll do.

Jolteon is the very definition of electric-type. Hyper fast and painful.

Oh, yeah. I forgot about magic bounce, too. I typically like Umbreon of the two more, though.

dont underestimate the usefullness of umbreon. In almost all teams I run at least some kind of cleric, and umbreon does the job exceptionaly well. if you run iot alongside dusclops to take the fighting and bug hits aimed at it, you have a very solid defencive core. and it does happen rather often that you are forced to toxic-stall something you can't take out outherwise

Argh, tough decision. My Sableye wants to learn Foul Play... is it better overall than Punishment?
I have Power Gem as well, which isn't all that good, but I'm reluctant to forget it since I don't really have any rock moves at my party's disposal. (Also it kinda suits Sableye. :P)
Maybe I should just forget that one, and grab a rock pokemon in future.

@Reudh: Vs Recorder? Where would I find that, exactly?
