Can't die against Brawly but will take many minutes to win, so I'd argue you're better off using Wingull or Taillow in there. STAB Shadow Ball is good against Liza and Tate, as well as Phoebe, and it actually has access to Calm Mind and a decent enough special coverage via TMs, but not the best stats to make use of any of it. It's also good against Norman's Slakings but once again, there are faster ways to win there. You'll always find use for this chap, but he will only slow down your progress. 5/10

Golem is easily comparible to the others of it's kind, while FRLG Abra family is only comparable to Mr.Mime in turns of being the best overall.

1/10

Kinda not worth it, considering that it has poor coverage, and shit durability, and requires a trade evo, and isn't going survive 2 physical attacks.

Psychic-types are more useful in FR/LG Kanto because of Weezing and Gengar families running Levitate now (and Dig being weak), and with Hypno being slow and weaker offensively, Kadabra has less competition. Psychic and Shock Wave isn't very wide coverage on the other hand, and Jynx with Mr. Mime get better moves (former gets Ice Beam, latter Thunderbolt and Magical Leaf) and faster growth due to being tradees. They can also fight for themselves as soon as you get them. In that light, the competition for being the team's Psychic is not in favour of Kadabra. 7/10

alakazam was better when psychic was broken. Now its coverage is a bit worse because its best coverage moves are in Emerald's battle frontier.

HOENNS JEIGAN!

+1 bias.

10/10

Makes early-mid game easier, with it's immunities/resistances and all that jazz.
Trolls Brawly and Norman a bit too!

Kinda like fe6 Marcus.

Clutch against Brawly... and that's about it. Probably the best Brawly clutch though.

4/10 - Only nice for one battle, even if its an allstar in said battle. 

[lastbearer]

I remember using Sableye. It was the thing that won against Norman. Then I ditched it because of lack-luster defense.

Anyone else who wants to rate Alakazam, please wait until the new compilation thread is up and functional, and do it there. People who've already rated, don't worry, I won't ask you to do it again.

Sableye is great.

Brawly can't do shit against it, and it's great up until after the sixth gym, where it starts to become mediocre. Of course, it can still have some fun against Tate and Liza and maybe Phoebe, but it's moveset isn't the greatest. Shadow Ball is basically it's best bet if you want it to do some major damage.

5/10, +1 bias for being amazing in my Sapphire file. 6/10

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh I was wondering why this suddenly got new posts from yesterday x3 That shouldn't have surprised me though but I'm not really used to seeing anything added =o

Omnom, Pokemon.

[Aversa]

Pokemon are delicious snacks, but as always, Ultima still hungers.

[SeverIan]

What I don't understand is why my "read new posts" centered me midway through it.

[Raven]

There's probably some sort of community in the Pokemon world that does eat Pokemon.

I'd like to have a try of Magikarp.

No joke I think it would be delicious.

[Aversa]

Here's the question though.
Would vegetarians eat grass types?

[CrashGordon94]

Sever, it's probably because you read some of them originally, or something.

[SeverIan]

Sever, it's probably because you read some of them originally, or something.

I think that is a reasonable explanation in a general sense for why such a thing would occur, but I don't think I specifically ever looked at a Pokemon RTU. Could be, though.

Does anyone have a sure-fire cure for chronic diarrhea? I've been on the toilet for three days now and if this doesn't stop soon I'll be drownin' in my own shit...

[Esme]

drink some club soda and a DOODIE PILL

you'll probably experience the biggest shit ever, but after that your chronic diarrhea will be looooooong gone~
