That is the first time anyone ever told me that I influenced them…much love man
Despite all the bad blood, I have respect for all you cats, even the mislead Smogon acolytes…
Except Mood… Fuck that guy lol.
I got a special acknowledgement. I am loved by even po!
Here’s the recording of the Grand Finals of the discord tournament I won:
Rise to the heavens oh glorious Gyarados!

Dugtrio…how the mighty have fallen.
I haven’t played on Smogon in months even before USUM. Some of this is interesting
Gengar not OU? WHAT MADNESS IS THIS?!?
Blacephelon is just better and that isnt doing so hot with so many good teams having ttar on them
UU is gonna feel the wrath of trick room tho
It wasn’t OU at the beginning of the gen.
Blacephalon is just a metagame trend right now and still hasn’t secured a solid niche. It’s mainly popular because people are forgetting that Focus Blast Gengar is a thing even with the nigh omnipresence of Megatar and CBtar.
I haven’t though…
Blacephelon gets knock off which helps so much against chansey
Neither are that good atm tho
Time to bring back Zard-Y. They can’t disrespect my boy like this.
The Monster Reborn must’ve been redirected to SRK instead.
And A-Ninetales gets booted to BL Hell.
BTW Tournament incoming since $RK isn’t dying.
Supposed leaks of the new starter Pokemon:

This one is the fire type and is supposed to evolve into a fire/steel type

This one is grass/electric and a rather cool concept.

And this pure water type is based on coral.
If these are fake, I give kudos to the whomever designed them, because they’re pretty good, especially the grass starter concept.
