    Discussion Do you think Buzzwole is OP in Standard?

    Not broken, but not healthy for the format either. While in theory the deck is balanced by counters in Malamar variants, I found that wasn't really the case in Madison. I ran Gardevoir-GX/Zoroark-GX (really regretting not just sticking with Golisopod-GX/Garbodor) and I ran into 4 Buzzwole-GX...

    Ruling Should I Have Appealed?

    Major 'Pokemon Switch' Rumors Today -- A Breakdown and Analysis!

    Pokemon What would be your team if you were the Champion?

    I wouldn't stick to 1 type, as that's to limiting. 1. Emboar - Technically my first Pokemon (1st one was actually a Mudkip, but it was in a bootleg copy of Pokemon Sapphire, and that copy is long gone and broken, so I don't count it.) one of my favorites, and one of the only Pokemon I've...

    Major 'Pokemon Switch' Rumors Today -- A Breakdown and Analysis!

    Probably is not Gen VIII, so I'm not disappointed. If this is Gen VIII, then I won't be too excited, if they handle this how I think they probably will. Depending on how well the Go capture system works, this could be pretty fun, they could still incorporate fighting into the capture system...
