  1. Keep in mind that unless superhumans could do everything *exactly* the same amount of "better" for everyone in every possible task, comparative advantage is still going to hold. It's more efficient to specialize and trade. And I'm pretty sure that there aren't enough superhumans to do everything for everyone--sure, a speedster might be able to do the work of 10 people in a grocery store, but chances are that there are more grocery stores than speedsters, the speedsters usually have better things to do than move stuff around in a grocery store, and anything requiring a forklift is still probably going to require an unpowered human operator (speedsters can't make the forklift go faster).
  2. Hi fellow trans BZPower-ite :)

      Toa Imrukii

      I only know of two.

  3. Hmm. What about Reyna? (Honestly, for personal reasons I'm slightly more annoyed at Scott's appearance--Silvermind was fun, but she was a bite bigger than I could chew [ditto with Soil Colossus and Manaphy.])
  4. OOC: Hi all. What has happened since late 2012? (apparently way more things than TSTW...) (No IC yet; if I come back, then I'm making some changes to my characters (or outright making new ones.))
  5. Neya here. http://images.wikia.com/leagueoflegends/images/3/34/Jax.move1.ogg][/url] ...Maybe. I got a little nostalgic and decided that I might as well come back here for a summer. As it stands I'm going to consider coming back to Falcon later. Probably going to make a new character this time. Duel Screen...heck with him. With Lord of Adders Black's permission, I'd like to retcon him out of existence. ...What's exactly happened in the League of Salvation since the forums got revamped?
  6. So, hey... you ever coming back? X3

  7. 1. The site that does the most widely used tier list for 6v6 Singles is actually supporting Ditto. In Dream World testing it's been shown that it isn't necessarily broken per se-being Choice Scarf locked hurts it significantly.2. There are two VERY good ways to bypass the 1 vote restriction, and they're possibly why Ditto's #2.Firefox users should install https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...ble-shortcuts/ and then set "Clear Recent History" to one key. It is quite hepful, as you can basically repeat-bypass the vote block. Game Freak is not known for its internet coding.Google Chrome users can simply open the site in an incognito tab, vote, close the tab, then open a new incognito tab and rinse/repeat.

    Day Run Is Back

    I'd need a recap for Day Run too.
  9. While it isn't a gen V mon, get a female Multiscale Dragonite.
  10. You might want it available for updates: just saying.
  11. The main issue people found with Excadrill is that it tended to put a large restriction on team variety, and it prevented people from running many viable Choice Scarf users to deal with other threats like Dragonite. Hey, I didn't like Thundurus, but better players found it to be pretty abusable. For that random matchup team, what format are you planning to use it in? Also, list the movesets, stats, and EVs of your team.
  12. Username: The Count of Neya MagnaName: Scott StoneFaction: Team LibertyHometown: Sootopolis CityAge: 16Appearance: Okay. He wears a green hat similar to that of Red (only green of course, no puns intended,) with symbols of a Claw Fossil and a Root Fossil on them. The rest of his outfit is similar to a green-colored version of a Hoenn trainer's outfit.Personality: Very intelligent. He tends to be relatively bold, but he always prefers to hedge his boldness with knowledge first. He's somewhat zealous in his desire to beat Team Rocket. Generally likes Fossil Pokemon and foods of various exotic cultures. Flaws: Scott has a tendency, like Armaldo, to not back down from a challenge. He also has a tendency to analyze things too much sometimes. Background: Scott grew up in a relatively good life despite Team Rocket: Sootopolis was hard to access in any way but diving and flying through the crater, which meant resistance factions could gain a tactical advantage simply by covering chokepoints. This meant that Scott has seen more rebellions there than perhaps some higher-ups in the Team Rocket chain of command. Team Rocket always managed to take them out, but Sootopolis never truly "fell" entirely to Team Rocket, with old rebellion leaders simply disbanding in public, reforming into other groups behind the scenes, etc. He has Steven Stone as an uncle, from who he secretly inherited an Anorith and a Lileep at age 14. (He always liked Fossil Pokemon before then.) Since then he has found Team Liberty, who are currently trying to carve out the city in the crater from Team Rocket control, and stuck with them. He has always had a mind for strategy, and he regularly makes notes in his Pokenav about good battle strategies.Pokémon: Armaldo, Cradily, Mantine, Steelix, Shelgon, Beldum CURRENT POKEMON: Species: Armaldo (evolved from Anorith on page X after 7 battles)Nickname: AncientTrainer: Scott StoneAppearance: His claws are slightly longer than normal and his eyes have a bluish tint, traits maintained from his Anorith stage. However, as he was recovering from a burn upon evolution, his back plates are flecked with an ashy silver-and-black pattern, shaped in the pentagon shape of a Fire Blast, and a streak of similar coloration on each of his claws.Personality: Somewhat curious. Ancient has a sense of honor, and he doesn't exactly like to back down from a challenge. In the games, he would have an Adamant nature. While he feels a little depressed due to his evolved slowdown, he is recovering from it.Ability: Battle ArmorSpecialty: Before he evolved, he was very fast. Now that he has evolved, however, he finds he isn't as fast as he used to be, but his prowess defensively has improved. He's having trouble adapting to this new style (think Ash's Grotle in the anime,) but slowly and steadily, it's getting better at being a tank. It can also fly a little now, and it retained its species' ability to swim long distances. (Once again, however, Armaldo cannot learn Surf.) However, its strength in-battle and out-of-battle has improved, and Scott S. can not only ride him now, but also fly on him across short distances (like a gap or onto a single-story house's roof. He obviously wouldn't be able to carry Scott across the Grand Canyon or onto the top of the Empire State building, to use real-life examples) and swim on him across larger, but water-filled, ones.Known Moves:X-ScissorProtectRock Slide (egg move)Water GunMetal ClawScreech (egg move)Battle Count: 7+StarterEvolved during a Legendary fightOld Moves: Scratch (replaced with X-Scissor upon evolution.) As an Anorith: Species: AnorithNickname: AncientTrainer: Scott StoneAppearance: His claws are slightly longer than normal, his eyes have a bluish tint, and he's a slightly brighter green than normal.Personality: Somewhat curious. Ancient has a sense of honor, and he doesn't exactly like to back down from a challenge. In the games, it would have an Adamant nature.Ability: Battle ArmorSpecialty: Speed.Known Moves:ScratchProtectRock Slide (egg move)Water GunMetal ClawScreech (egg move, and as for incompatibility reasons...TECHNICALLY Kabutops can learn Rock Slide)Battle Count: 7Starter Species: CradilyNickname: ArchaicTrainer: Scott StoneAppearance: In addition to mildly longer "petal-tentacles," she has a slightly shinier pigmentation than most Cradily. (In terms of coloration, though, she's a normal Cradily. Not a shiny in the rules sense [though she is the "metallic" definition of shiny] by any means. If you need a picture, I'll upload it to the wiki.)Personality: Cradily tends to be level-headed, and she generally can sense when she's in over her head. A note is that Cradily has received a good deal of self-confidence from evolution. She would probably have a Relaxed nature in-game.Ability: Suction CupsSpecialty: Cradily, as a Lileep, was defensive. Now, upon evolution, it as gotten even MORE defensive to the point of being nigh impossible to take out. It also gained a degree of attack power, and while it certainly isn't Rampardos, it's certainly not Shuckle, either.Known Moves:AncientPowerAstonishWring OutIngrainRecover (egg move)Curse (egg move)Battle Count: 7+StarterEvolved at Four IslandOld Moves: Acid: Replaced with Ancientpower on page 38.Constrict: Replaced with Wring Out upon evolution. As a Lileep: Species: LileepNickname: ArchaicTrainer: Scott StoneAppearance: This Lileep's patterns, which are normally yellow, are a light green.Personality: Lileep tends to be level-headed, and it generally can sense when she's in over her head. It would probably have a Relaxed nature in-game.Ability: Suction CupsSpecialty: Archaic is defensive.Known Moves:AncientPowerAstonishConstrictIngrainRecover (egg move)Curse (egg move)Battle Count: 7StarterOld Moves: Acid: Replaced with Ancientpower on page 38. Species: MantineNickname: MayTrainer: Scott StoneAppearance: The pattern on her back, as well as her bottomside, are white rather than the normal pale blue (though the rest of her remains unchanged from the normal Mantine coloring, thus it isn't a shiny). Her wings and antennae are also a bit wider/longer than normal. Her tail is also a bit lengthy for a Mantine.Personality: Mantine tends to like speeding ahead of things. She would probably have a Hasty nature in-game. She has grown more patient with evolution, but still not by so much.Ability: Swift SwimSpecialty: Okay. Mantine is a MAJOR special wall. It will take a long time to kill with Special Attacks other than Electric, and even then...not to mention evolution has only made it better at tanking those hits. On the other hand, it's still pretty darn weak to physical attacks, but not to the same degree as it was as Mantyke. Evolution has also given it better special attack, meaning it also hits decently as well.Known Moves:BounceHydro PumpBubbleBeamSupersonicHeadbuttAgilityBattle Count: 7+Caught in Sootopolis CityEvolved at Rocket Master Facility ParadiseOld Moves: Bubble: Replaced with Bounce on page 99.Tackle: Replaced with Hydro Pump upon evolution. As a Mantyke: Species: MantykeNickname: MayTrainer: Scott StoneAppearance: The pattern on her back, as well as her bottomside, are white rather than the normal pale blue (though the rest of her remains unchanged from the normal Mantyke coloring, thus it isn't a shiny). Her wings and antennae are also a bit wider/longer than normal.Personality: Mantyke tends to like speeding ahead of things. She would probably have a Hasty nature in-game.Ability: Swift SwimSpecialty: Okay. Mantyke is a MAJOR special wall. It will take a long time to kill with Special Attacks other than Electric, and even then...On the other hand, it's pretty darn weak to physical attacks.Known Moves:BounceBubbleBeamTackleSupersonicHeadbuttAgilityBattle Count: 7, Remoraid fought (soon to evolve)Caught in Sootopolis CityOld Moves: Bubble: Replaced with Bounce on page 99. Species: SteelixNickname: JuneTrainer: Scott S.Appearance: Its tail has a small "rattle" on it made of clustered metal. It doesn't really do anything: it really just uses it to sound threatening (though this advantage is merely a psychological one.)Personality: He has a tendency to play tricks. He'd probably be Impish-natured in-game. A note is that he has a semi-decent fear of water. His aquaphobia has been LESSENED after evolution, though not entirely gone.Ability: Sturdy (I know that it should logically get Rock Head in-game, but...)Specialty: Whereas Mantine is a special tank, Steelix is a physical one. It can shrug off most physical hits not from its weaknesses, and even then it still tanks them like a pro. Its defense is ginormous and it can take tons of physical hits. It uses its many resistances to deal with the special attacks it has a harder time walling. Its increased weight has made it much slower than as Onix, however.Known Moves:SlamIron TailScreechStone EdgeSandstormRock TombBattle Count: 12Caught in "Mount Liberty" [remnants of Groudon battle arena, off Sootopolis's coast]Evolved at the entrance to Rocket Master Facility ParadiseOld Moves: Tackle: Replaced with Slam.Bind: Replaced with Iron TailStone Edge: Replaces Rock Throw. As an Onix: Species: OnixNickname: JuneTrainer: Scott S.Appearance: Its tail has a small "rattle" on it made of clustered stones. It doesn't really do anything: it really just uses it to sound threatening (though this advantage is merely a psychological one.)Personality: He has a tendency to play tricks. He'd probably be Impish-natured in-game. A note is that he has a semi-decent fear of water.Ability: Rock HeadSpecialty: Whereas Mantyke is a special tank, Onix is a physical one. It can shrug off any physical hits not from its weaknesses, and even then only its 4x weaknesses truly prove a liability. It can't really take unresisted special attacks, however.Known Moves:SlamBindScreechRock ThrowSandstormRock TombBattle Count: 12Caught in "Mount Liberty" [remnants of Groudon battle arena, off Sootopolis's coast]Old Moves: Tackle: Replaced with Slam. Species: ShelgonNickname: JuliusTrainer: Scott StoneAppearance: Its shell is silver, like Hoenn Shelgon, and its foot scales are light blue, like Sinnoh or Johto Shelgon. Its fangs, at the rare points where they're exposed, are larger than usual.Personality: Shelgon does not like to stop for details. It would have a Naive nature in-game. Its extremely quick evolution, taking less than a day from egg to first evolution, has left it slightly confused about life, and while it maintains high self-esteem, it doesn't always know what to do. It doesn't entirely know its own strength, and it's slightly more confused. Nevertheless, it has grown stronger and better, and is quickly learning.Ability: Shed SkinSpecialty: Shelgon tends to be a powerful attacker, surprisingly with both special and physical moves (something that is normally reserved for its evolution, Salamence,) but it's slow. It has gotten better with Dragon Dance, letting it speed up and gain attack, so it no longer needs exclusively to attack from a range if it can't catch up to its opponent. It attacks with all the moves in its arsenal now.Known Moves:EmberBiteZen HeadbuttDragonBreathDragon Dance (egg move)Hydro Pump (egg move. It no longer requires recoil to cancel, and it only needs a few seconds to cool down. However, it still takes a short time to charge (shorter than as a Bagon, though) and Shelgon still has to stay still while charging it.)Battle Count: 9Obtained at Four Island as an egg, hatched at Rocket Master Facility Paradise.Evolved for the first time directly outside Rocket Master Facility Paradise.Old Moves: Headbutt: Replaced with Zen Headbutt upon evolution.Twister: Replaced with DragonBreath approximately around evolution. (I may have accidentally said DragonBreath rather than Twister while it was still a Bagon.) As Bagon: Species: BeldumNickname: AugustusTrainer: Scott StoneAppearance: Beldum maintains the smallish, 1' 6" frame of a Hoenn Beldum. It also has a slight dimple in its head, and a blue eye as opposed to a red one.Personality: Beldum is a continuous happy Pokemon, and even in battle it always moves at top morale. In-game, it would probably have the Jolly nature. It is the first to laugh at a joke and the first to cheer up one who is weeping.Ability: Clear BodySpecialty: Beldum naturally excels at defense, a trait shared by all Beldum. However, it can only engage in short bursts of speed, usually enough to engage in one of its attacks. It can also hover, but it does not gain a ground immunity by doing so.Known Moves:Take DownZen HeadbuttIron HeadIron DefenseBattle Count: 4Caught off the coast of Southern Island. Species: TepigNickname: TahuTrainer: Scott StoneAppearance: He has a red spot between his eyes rather than the standard yellow one, and a yellow tail rather than a red one.Personality: Tahu is a hybrid of his namesake and a standard Pokabu. He has a bit of a temper, but he can't resist any good food in the area. Overall he is Jolly.Ability: BlazeSpecialty: Tahu is strong, and good with using Nitro Charge to boost his speed to rather good levels.Known Moves:Nitro ChargeTackleDefense CurlRolloutSmogSuperpower (egg move. Limited in that as Pokabu it suffers the loss of all Nitro Charge and Defense Curl boosts it has received, while lowering its attack. Tahu saves this move as a finisher, usually.)Battle Count: 1Obtained at Four Island as a gift. Species: Exeggcute (shadow) Nickname: PirahnaTrainer: Scott StoneAppearance: Normal. One of his 6 heads has a normal aura and holds a Micle Berry, the rest have shadow auras.Personality: None just yet: he's a Shadow Pokemon. One of his heads, the one that holds his berry, seems to be normal, however, and it seems to be a calm Pokemon from what can be told. It's a bit lonely, though, given its other heads don't have a personality yet.Ability: HarvestSpecialty: He can utilize telepathy to relay orders. Its one pure head always carries a Micle berry around, which it can use its Harvest ability with for quick accuracy boosts when his health is low.Known Moves:HypnosisShadow Hold (Clone of Block/Mean Look)Shadow Wave (50 base power, hits all opponents)Shadow Rush (XD version, 55 power no recoil)Shadow Shed (removes Light Screen/Reflect/Safeguard)Battle Count: 1Caught at Four Island. Will update over the weekend with all my current characters updated to current status (and possibly the past ones too)-let's just say that BZPower will be harder to fit into my schedule from now on.

    A Question

    I have a slight question about BZPower. ...Why exactly do we allow discussion of Mass Effect in CoT but censor out the word cool dude?
