Does Anyone Here Use Pokémon Showdown?

[Blue Canary]

Just wondering. I know Smogon sucks (as you can clearly tell from my signature), but hey, it's nice to be able to battle Pokémon without spending hours, even days, making a team. I'm just not that patient.

I use Showdown, though I typically use the X/Y Battle Spot formats due to the fact that Smogon rules are absurd and hinder creativity.

I have a thread dedicated to gimmicky teams I've come up with on Showdown, actually. Check it out!

It's all I use. I can never find anyone to battle with in X/Y, so random battles tide me over.

I use it. If you ever wanna battle, my username is Sir Froce.

At the current moment, I am using Pokemon Showdown to test out my competitive teams as my 3DS is out to Nintendo for repairs. It also helps me plan out for next year's VGC as I am actually going to attempt to make it to Nationals! Plus Pokemon Showdown allows me to make all the teams that I want and lets me know beforehand what to do and what not to do. Not only that but I am able to create nice strategies the more I use the time a team. Although I don't have a decent team that I win with all the time, I am slowly building up to that level because I am able to create the team that I want to use in the future before I fully invest my time and energy to make a team that can either be the strongest team in existence or might not even be worth it in the long run.

I use an alternative called Pokémon Online, but I only use the built in Team Builder it has to plot out my team and create them in my actual Pokémon games. I don't battle on the simulator itself because "Tiers R 4 Queers!".

But seriously I can't try out the team I made because of these tiers and I just get given a random generic tier team, so I just make them in my Pokémon games and test them out the proper way.

I use showdown and love it!

I only use Pokemon Showdown to test out the stats of a potential Pokemon before I go through the arduous task of raising it in Y, and sometimes I battle someone here on Showdown for kicks. Other than that, I exclusively battle in Y version.
