 Snivy is ok, tepig sounds weird, and Oshawatt sounds horrible.

I looked at the stats for the final evos for all of them, and the water type's is pretty damn good. It has monstrous attack and decent stats to back it up.

It actually has higher S atk, and im dissapointed in his average speed. The grass starter has monstrous speed and above average defense so im having a hard time picking which one to get. And Jalorda's Dream World ability + Leaf Storm is a deadly combo that looks very fun.

woobat...seriously, woobat?

what kind of a name is woobat, especially for the pokemon that is OBVIOUSLY taking over the role of ZUBAT, the least the could do is make a large difference between the two, but instead they change the first sound of it and say "yeah, thats good enough"

Thanks to cortexjs for making this banner.

Good job with the updates!
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?

I'd assume 'yes' IF the foe is the one that has the ability Antagonist

antagonist: All moves or abilities that would normally increase a stat will decrease it, and ones that would normally decrease a stat will increase it. This also applies to self-inflicted moves (bulbapedia)

I mean if you have antagonist, and you use swagger. He gets confused and -6 attack. Good idea, isn't it?

I'm not sure actually, i kno the ability effects stat changes to yourself but i have no clue if u do it to an enemy. I would guess no because that doesnt seem like it works that way.

I just looked up the serebii definition of it and it says: Moves used on the pokemon that raise stats lower stats, while the moves that lower the stats raise the stat.

It says "on the pokemon" so im gonna guess that it means swagger would not lower their attack unless, like Kamaran said, they also have the ability

I had only seen the one on bulbapedia. Thought it would be a great idea.
