i said before curse becoming standard on skarmory. Obviously, curse is dead on skarmory. some see it now and then, but rarely.

anyways, i thought the old/first standard skarm was sandstorm/toxic/drillpeck/steelwing??

[Sir Chris]

well, I dont know if that was the first, but you didnt ask me the first one..;o

Volume of Sphere = 4/3(pi)r³
= 4/3 x (pi) x 0.595³
= 0.882m³ x 100
= 88.2cm³ (3·DP)

That seems wrong XD

GSC related question? If I go through the game from the start, battling everyone I possibly can, who will the 49th person be, how much money will I recieve from beating them, and if the level of their 1st Pokemon is divided by 2, in relation to the RBY numbering system, what Pokemon do we end up with?

o_o;

[Green_Pikachu]

Lass Susie

350 pokewhatevers.

and the level of her first pokemon is 20, divided by 2 is 10, which gives us who the hell cares.

[Poryhedron]

Caterpie.

[Sir Chris]

wow gp, I think tat was grade A bull****, congrats.

Also, a note of interest, I will let kari have a point...since I guess I was wrong..

Sphere: V = (4/3)*Pi*r^3
Electrode: about 119.38 cm (I'm assuming that's top to bottom)

V = (4/3)*Pi*(59.69)^3
V = 890826.948 cm^3

[[McGraw]]

I said 3 significant figures so Titandude loses X)

Anyways, Chris, what is the EXACT probability of Max attack Machamp (358) OHKOing max def Blissey (118 Def/713 HP) with NON CH cross chop.

Neither pokemon has any stat modifiers and Blissey is at 100%. Machamp does not have black belt and don't forget to factor in accuracy (Blissey does not have brightpowder either).

Edit: disabled smilies =[

[Bashaamo]

Heh, this is an interesting topic. I just wanted to ask a question about the Drill Peck/Steel Wing/Toxic/Sandstorm Skarmory. Do any of you know who first came up with that moveset? I think that was my Skarm... (I had a different name then, I think it was Kiwi Eevee at the time.) Anyway, I'll give you a cookie if you can answer my question. *waves the cookie in front of everyone*

Who is credited with inventing healbelling at tpm(although it was most likely at other places first)?

[Sir Chris]

lol, I am getting my newb *** owned badly.

I will say fish!

xaron fisk

[TheLocke]

Inventing heal belling? Well, if inventing is using a miltank, I don't think there is any way anyone could stake claim to that title.

As for rest belling, IMAP is credited with popularize the standard rest belling team.

[Bob54321]

I'd say the nice people at Game Freak invented Heal-Belling....


Who came up with the set sleeptalk,fireblast,crunch,pursuit for houndoom?


Someone is very game using ST without rest...

being a participant in the 'og: skarmory' topic, it was steel wing, drill peck, toxic, rest @ mintberry, this was long before curse was even popular... and whirlwind was also slightly reccomended...
~edit: skarmory recognition came around slightly after everyone got out of that tss phase... (well tpms tss phase...)

if i recall it was xaron fisk who brought the idea of rest being healed by heal bell (and the obvious advantages, obviously...), but imap was the duder youd give credit for team wise...

anywhos, i gots a question, X) hahah, your so not stumped, X)

who invented the now standard gligar set?

[Sir Chris]

Was it you? {/complete guess]

[Green_Pikachu]

1. i still use curseskarm. SPNAK.

2. stadium 3 or whatever made standard gligar(made it possible for it to get quake AND wing attack). dont even dare saying yourself. ;P

3. G_M, why haven't you rated my almighty GSC team yet?

4. i said xaronfisk, which means i win.

[Gligar_Man]

nope, im 99% sure it was felix

[Green_Pikachu]

Originally posted by Gligar_Man

how can felix invent a pokemon's standard, when there is really only one usable set for that pokemon? that's like saying you put transform on ditto, and voila, standard. maybe i'm taking it a bit too far, but Gligar is just one of those pokemon who are very limited.

[Gligar_Man]

people didnt decide to even use counter on it for a long time, it was all random ss/toxic/rest, lol... they didnt have counter, rarely had screech... alot had return or toxic/ss...

skarmory has a limited movepool... but other movesets were used before curse, dp, ww, rest...

point is it was felix, hes like, hey counter/quake/wing attack/screech, X)... woo...

1. thats different. that ss/toxic **** was never considered standard, because gligar was HARDLY ever used, even on UU teams.

2. skarm has more of a moveset pool than gligar.

3. i used that gligar set on my very first UU team, like a week after stadium 2 came out, and we knew that it was possible to have a gligar like that. it's the ONLY possible set for gligar that works effectively.

4. rate my team, ho. :yes:

[Gligar_Man]

i rated...

to avoid arguments, gligar has much more then 4 moves, felix was the first to combine them, and just because it came a standard so early on doesnt mean someone shouldnt get a little credit for it...

and btw, it was supposed to be a question chris wouldnt get, and he didnt...

now ask him one, X)

[Green_Pikachu]

ok, i got one for chris. who co-ran the POKE organization with me, in the early days of gsc?

[jet1213]

[jet1213]

will do.


also i always have school.. and thats kind of a *****. plus my band is finally getting some local fans, so thats kinda cool. so yeah a lot of my time has been going towards that.


but tpm comes first, of course.

[Green_Pikachu]

i got a good q. i think. :/

who were the original mods of GS when it FIRST came out?

[jet1213]

hydro, christian_walley, HG, and mr. e?


that dosent look right

[MetalScyther]

I'm going to go with Mr.E and LugiaStorm. I remember way back that they were the only two mods, were there more before that? hydro wasn't modded before that, christian_walley is woz, right? I don't think he ever modded here either, could be wrong. HG may have.

[jet1213]

nah


i know for a fact that they were all mods here, and i'm pretty sure they were all mods at the same time, its just a matter of if they were the first or not.

[Green_Pikachu]

silver_clefairy, some dude, some dude, and some dude

[[McGraw]]

Silver Clefairy, Madelyn, Christian Whalley, MrE

[Green_Pikachu]

nope. there was this one guy i keep thinking of. i know he was one of the first mods. his name is like, right on the tip of my tongue. it was a pokemon's name, i think, and then a few numbers...grr....i hate when something like this happens...

[Number1ChanseyFan]

Was the other mod Denryuu72?

[Green_Pikachu]

thats it! denryuu was the japanese name of ampharos. yes, denryuu72 was his him. him, SilverClefairy, Maddy, and someone else. maybe E, but i dont think so... :/

[Number1ChanseyFan]

I think that the last mod's name was blaze, I might be wrong though...

[Green_Pikachu]

that actually sounds somewhat right. although, i have no clue. i modded this forum for almost 2 years, and i dont even know who i modded with. lol. i think quicksilver. :/

[[McGraw]]

YES ! OF COURSE !! DENRYUU72, HOW COULD I FORGET HIM =(

[Green_Pikachu]

because u are Mad******, that's why. =)

this is a good topic....remembering the good old days. Didn't you used to be....SILVER SHADOW OMG?

[kurai]

What was the very first Pokemon seen as overused, and what was its common moveset?

(this was very popular during the time shortly after the game came out in Japan, before we even knew what breeding did)

[Sir Chris]

I am going to take a guess here.

I believe it was Houndoom.

[jet1213]

i know there was a mewtwo standard.. like recover/psychic/t wave/ice beam? @miracleberry, i think


at one time that was pretty popular, and it was invented by you, kurai, so i'll say that.


i think that was probably later then when you're talking about, though.

[[McGraw]]

Kurai's Mewtwo was ice beam/safeguard/thunder wave/recover @miracleberry, methinks 8D

[kurai]

Both of those guesses happened way later than what I'm talking about.

(and the second Mewtwo set is correct but was only useful when Starmie was on every team)

[Green_Pikachu]

xatu: drill peck, haze, psychic, giga drain??

all i remember is xatu was on like everyone's team. :/

[kurai]

The original overused Pokemon was Entei, since fire types were seen as very awesome originally, and Entei had nice looking stats as well as a unique moveset which was somewhat the antithesis of RBY days, with Sunny Day, Fire Blast, Crunch, Solar Beam. Like I said, no one knew how breeding worked really, so this was seen as completely possible, and was popularized by Madelyn I believe (and we didn't know to attach items at the time either).

Xatu was overused a bit too, but that happened later.

[Sir Chris]

Lol.Well, you old schoolers are just totally raping me, maybe I should just change the topic title and let you guys go at it, you guys seem to like to talk about it so much, ah, the old days indeed. Damn shame I missed so much of it.

~ Chris

[MetalScyther]

One thing was something about skarmory turning popular in the TSS stage, I don't think it got to be very popular until curselax came around with quake+bslam.

X)


1.) 4/3 * pi * R^3 = volume of a sphere
2a) Electrode's Height/Diameter in US units: 3'11' or 47 inches
2b) Electrode's Height/Diameter in metric units: 119.85 cm
3.) 119.85 / 2 = 59.925
4a) 4/3 * pi * 59.925^3
4b) 4/3 * pi * 215191.012078125cm^3
4c) pi * 286921.3494375cm^3
4d) 901390.003668617032125 cm^3

and since you wanted 3 significant figures:

5) "9.01 * 10^5 cm^3"
