  3. I turn antimicro on then my controller works with the game. I do not assign any keys in the game. It's free. http://imgur.com/a/80stX
  4. S rank: does one role extremely well. High reward. Low risk. Very few flaws. A rank: wall a significant portion of of meta game. Have few flaws. I think chansey is an A. It is over all the best special defense pokemon, but that is all. Even with this, it cannot be sent in freely to defend attacks. Think of using it to defend one attack from haunter. Haunter can perish trap it. You are risking losing your chansey. Think of wanting to defend from a porygon2 or starmie, they can use trick to greatly handicap it. You send it in against special attack sceptile who endeavors chansey then it dies to a pursuit. You don't have protect and your chansey is getting double teamed by an eruption typhlosion and a choice band pursuit user. Would you consider your defense "very effective" against these meta game threats? If it's purpose is defense and it cannot defend "extremely well", against the meta game it is not an S. Even if you do successfully defend an attack, chansey does not give you momentum. You could even argue that it costs you momentum and lets the other person have a set up turn. I think this has to be considered along with "risk" of using it. S rank is defined as low risk. Would you consider giving the opponent a low cost turn against your chansey to be low risk? I read some players say the counter argument is in the threat of a twave or a toss from chansey. Really? To me a threat of power is for example a banded eruption typhlosion or a heracross that is swords dancing or a slaking coming at you. To me that is a threat. If tricks and traps wasn't there or even unpopular id give it S for sure for its defensive ability. In this meta game however there are major holes in chansey's defenses. To me it is somewhere in the A ranks.
  5. The current Pokemmo OU meta game has more offensive... options... than any we have had in the past. Trick pokemon: use one move to more or less disable the function of a pokemon on the opponents team. Trapping: players give up recovery at times to avoid being trapped. Life balls: are you using your balls today? A favorite is spamming growth venusaur with life ball. This also powers up already powerful pokemon such as blaziken and gyarados. The rebuttal is that it leechs your life, but that's almost irrelevant if the life ball pokemon is putting out effective and high damage output and fainting opposing pokemon. bands: you even have bands for your special attacking pokemon now. A favorite 'strategy' is to use the special attack band then if your special attacker is being effective, keep spamming. If it's not having impact, use trick to disable the defending pokemon from stopping your attacks. Starmie is a popular pokemon that does this, but (as you know?) bands are used in combination with trick on a wide variety of pokemon. There's also some ( 'more competive? ') offensive strats making an appearance again like the old spam spore breloom. I've even seen room for the endeavor+using speed to get some kills. As long as chansey is here, You even have a consistent low cost switch in spot. What more could you ask for offensively? If you can't get offense going in this Pokemmo OU, then it's probably bad team building or bad timing with kingdra. You just need to make sure you are keeping up with the times (what is being used) and also take a long look at your team. Takes notes on how you lose matches. Were your loses to cancer or can your team be better? In my case, I played about 60 rounds and took notes in my loses before I was seeing some consistency and decided my team could be better. Problems with team building are not always easy to see with RNG and uncompetitive/uncreative cancer often deciding matches. Matches where you dominate often do not give you useful data either. As far as kingdra specifically: Kingdra is very powerful but it's ideally for mid or late game after it's counters are weakened or gone. You could call it more of a sweeper. A wall breaker is more hit and run like a blaziken or a fat ursaring. Something that can come in any time and might take something out then come back in later. You have to make sure you send in kingdra when it's the right time. I wouldn't say its best used as a breaker, it's best used as a sweeper for mid to late game clean up. amigacho used a kingdra a lot recently. First he (she?) would scout by sending in kingdra to see what pokemon would be used to stop kingdra. The he would try to waterfall flinch you to low health then outrage for the faint. Or... take out the defender by whatever means he could. It was all about timing (and RNG) to set up a sweep. That is ( as you know?) how all sweepers work in general.
  6. If you are concerned about special defense, you just have to make sure you have a way of dealing with the threats that the special wall cannot cover. For example, if you choose umbreon, you cannot use umbreon to face magneton unless you have hidden power fire. A potential answer for that situation would be swampert unless the magneton is hidden power grass. Another example: for chansey, you have to watch for pursuit/trapping and threats that seismic toss is ineffective against (such as growth venusaur that are everywhere). You would need a different answer for things with recovery+growth/calm mind. Porygon2 and Gardevoir are also options and so is using a core of 2 or 3 pokemon who can play around strong special attacks. There is a 0% chance snorlax will come back. The community has historically enjoyed the easy switch in spot as a way to get in life orbs, choice bands, gut users, growth users, basically anything at little to no cost. Centralization and variety will be cited as reasoning.
  7. When you update your PC to Windows 10 from an older operating system, you have to make sure your PC can install drivers that work with Windows 10. On your WIndows 10, open up your device manager and look under the display adapters section. Right click on the display adapter and make sure it is updated first. Once the PC has installed the most updated display driver available for it, google search the driver it installed to see if it is that generic universal driver that is not good for gaming. If it is installing a basic universal graphics driver that means that you can use the Windows 10, but it is not good for gaming unless you update the hardware. There is a method to enable compatibility mode to play PokeMMO, but the game is never usually as smooth when played this way. If PokeMMO is important to you, it may be best to use the operating system your computer had originally installed. If this is what you decide you want to do, there was a rollback option to downgrade back from Windows 10, it may still be available.
