1.) No problem! I edited the first post for ya. :)

2.)Venusaur: Amazing bulky attacker. I have used it in about 4 different teams and it has done well in every one.

Vileplume: I have only used it once but it was nice to be able to bounce back statuses and stuff, but thats about all the use I got out of it.

Meganium: Eh never really found much use for it on any of my teams so I dont really have any feed back on this one.

Sceptile: after unburden it can be crazy fast and can hit really hard with special or physical attacks. However it lost grasswhistle.

Torterra: Haven't used this one much either.

Leafeon: Haven't had the chance to use this guy either but with that bulk / atk and nice speed I can see it punching holes in a ton of pokemon

Serperior: Whats not to like? Leaf Storm your way to victory with contrary Serperior.

Simisage: Haven't had the chance to use it.

Whimsicott: Haven't had the chance to use it.

Ferrothorn: Can take attacks really really well and can hit back really hard with gyro ball.

Ludicolo: Can be great at both physical or special attacks

Parasect: Only used it a few times and I'm not really happy with what it can bring to the table. It usually gets in about 1 hit then dies.

Victreebel: Never used this one.

Exeggutor: Never used this one.

Jumpluff: Never used this one.

Wormadam Plant Cloak: Never used this one cept in a few tests and I didn't really like it. but I have used the Ground version and it is really amazing. No complaints what so ever

I think this may be all the grass pokemon that are currently on the balance server. Sorry I couldn't give you information on all of them, but I dont really enjoy grass pokemon all that much so I don't really use em lql.
Anyways hopes this helps and maybe someone else can give you some info on the ones I couldn't and maybe go into more detail on some of the others.
I can also give a few example sets if you need any help with that.

I agree with Venusaur, mainly because i like that it can learn Earthquake. Pokes that learn moves to take down their greatest weakness makes for OK team in my book; like Fires using Solarbeam, or Waters using Ice Beam, etc.

I used Leafeon, and for some weird reason it's main stats were this order: 147 Defense, 137 Speed, 133 Attack. Mind it was at Lv.50 and it was Adamant nature too.

I have always thought most Grass types defensive, with higher Def/Sp.Def and b/c of status moves. One Grass type I like, but won't be allowed is Virizion too.

Hmm...let's see, Victreebel has been a favorite of mine since early days of Pokemon, has nice offensive stats methinks... Torterra is a heavy hitter/taker, but Ice would pretty much OHKO it.

Whimsicott, Jumpluff... both of these are Speed heavy, and not very offensive, although they could get in some status effects before getting OHKO.

Ferrothorn is a definitely good choice despite 4x Fire weakness, and if it came across a Fire type/move , i'd be inclined to Explosion w/ Focus Sash >:D
Corpsair, Decapitain, Sparcrow, Condurit. Stumpole, Steekee, Totember, Flaracuda... My current list of ideas for Pokemon.

I don't think a sash will make your pokemon survive a self destructing move.

I think he meant he would use the sash to survive the fire attack and then hit them with the explosion. lql

I don't know why, but this thread isn't showing up on the "new replies to your posts" or "show unread posts" pages like the last thread did.

That's because this was your first post in the thread Chad, and the 'old' thread was closed.
No one can go back and change a bad beginning; but anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

No Guard... soooo... do OHKO moves (i.e. Fissure) always land with the ability active?
(Assuming the user is > or = the opponent level ofc)

i meant if someone had a different Pokemon use OHKO move with a No Guard-Pokemon in play, like a Sandslash vs. Machamp
