One of the best resources around. Use it to experiment with movesets, EV distribution, items, without all the in-game work.

One of the hardest things for me in transitioning to competitive battling was not being power focused. I was 100% a glass-cannon user. Every pokemon I used was high power and speed with crap defenses. That fell apart as soon as I hit a wall I didn't have coverage for.

My favorite play style now is stall and annoying teams. I love me some prankster pokemon and toxic walls.
