For you people who use the GSbot, Eevee and its evolutions now learn Growth.
I'm predicting two things to come from this. Teams filled with 2 or 3 of these Growthing Eeveeloutions is one of them. Mainly Jolteon, Espeon, and Vaporeon. Dav1dL already battled me with something similar. He added in the next part of my prediction... Baton Pass. This is like, lethal. Special attacks will make a comeback. In short, the new Jolt/Wak:
Jolteon: Water Power, Growth, Sub/Agility/T-bolt/Wave, Baton Pass
Moltres: Sunny Day, Fire Blast, Rest/Sub, Filler @Charcoal
Um.. yeah, can you say overkill on like everything? At the moment, I'm too lazy to look up what that combo doesn't kill, but I'm pretty sure it can cover just about everything. If there's a weak link, basically there's four slots left to help cover that.
Thoughts and comments?
EDIT: Vaporeon is also a beast considering it can Roar out or kill common pseudo-hazers. It's slower than Suicune/Skarm and would kill Steelix/Donphan. Surf, Roar, Growth, BP would be enough to set up without pseudo-hazing worries.

Uh, Eevee doesn't learn Growth in any version. Is this a NYC Pokemon Centre giveaway or something?

Yes. Fanha decided to add it into the bots, too.

The problem I see is with water types. If you choose to give jolteon T-bolt, then that leaves Moltres open to faster pokemon. On the other hand, you give him agility, and your screwed against most water types. Once you switch to Moltres, there is no turning back.
I'm taking advantage of the pokecentre by BP Ledian's agility to sharpen Steelix. Kicks major ass.
Here is a list of the crap you may have missed in the past, and the crap you'll be facing in the near future.

This is why we'll never get these Pokés transfered to Ruby and Sapphire, they would fuck the metagame 3 times over...
