I miss this… Need to pick my pokemon back up lmao.
Haha! I knew this was coming. I told you guys! Mega blaze goes. People go to M kanga! It goes, then M gengar now M Luke.
You get rid of the strongest things then people flock to the next most strongest mon. Every time.
I knew it was coming too. I called it way back before release. I mockingly said “How long until Smogon bans all Megas?” Shit’s not all that funny now…
I hate having to constantly defend my position on this game.
*Which isn’t even a real position… Since when did “Stop breaking things and just play” become a difficult concept?
*
It feels like I have to literally re-teach people how to think critically…
PokéAsperger’s may be a real thing… Smogon supporters are like a bunch of mini-Mew2King’s with the way they spazz about their precious numbers and calcs. No one has any instinct, no finesse.
after mega luc, i don’t see another mega getting suspected, and if it does, it would be mega venusaur for shitting all over stall teams
this is it, the fact he’s a mega is exclusive from the fact he’s broken
They’re hypocritical. I watch competitive battles all the time and it’s sad to see some of the things they do and hear some of the things they say.
- Forfeiting against Liepard if it does X
- Auto-forfeiting against Klefki
- Saying Kelfki needs to get banned and refusing to fight it
- Saying Mega EverythingThatWasBanned are broken and needs to be banned, while they were using them
- Forfeiting a battle against a fan on their own stream because Sleep Clause was broken
All of these were done by BlameTruth, barring the last one which was done by shofu. Like, what the fuck? You’re willing to use broken shit but you’re not willing to fight it? That shit makes no sense. People are even firing shots at my boy Bisharp… Apparently, Defiant is “stupid” because it fucks with Sticky Web. This is getting out of hand.
@Mood4food77… Me, you, and @r00ster22 already had a talk about Mega Lucario being banned and we agreed that there’s no reason for him to be. What changed?
Wut?
Psst… He’s trolling me…
that was before i ran it, went on a 40 game win streak by literally rolling my face against the keyboard, he’s stupid and that convo was a few months ago when mega kangaskhan was still around
and i didn’t even run an optimized mega lucario set (4 attack set), he’s stupid and just rapes almost everything, genesect is easier to wall than he is
Ya, I am still ok with luc honestly. Is he the best? Yes. Does having 2 amazingly viable different offensive sets troll the fuck out of me? Yes. I can deal with it for the most part though. The big problem is honestly the last part of having two sets that wreck havoc. He isn’t on the level of mega gar, khan, or blaze though.
WHICH ARE ALL STILL SRK LEGAL from what I see so no need to really worry about mega luc being banned here. Then again our next tourney has no megas so no need to worry about all that. There is a sword and shield that you all should worry about and he doesn’t have to mega evolve lol.
Fuck that Sword. Taunt. GGs Predictaboslash.
I rage about it because SOMEONE is on a one man holy crusade to spread the gospel of German Koffing, and I ain’t having that shit in *THE LAST PLACE ON THE WHOLE GODDAMNED INTERNET *where I can play without having that shit be brought up ad-nauseum, and it STILL gets brought up!
Can’t post a blasted thing without the next post being, “Well according to the calculations, when the Sun is aligned and the proper vectors are set I can make this mon stand on its head and recite the Quran backwards!” I don’t care about that shit.
Fuck that noise.
Fuck PokéHitler and his damn PokéNazi army.
EDIT: Case in point right after this post…
aegislash has base 60 speed, dies to being burned and can’t boost his special attack higher than what it already is
mega lucario is not only faster than aegislash, but has much stronger hits thanks to adaptability, is walled by a grand total of 1 pokemon (unlike aegislash who has a hard time with specially bulky ground types), mega lucario has much stronger priority (and can hit on both sides)
also, mega lucario can be slapped on to any team with no worry, there is no support really needed for this guy
You know that if they ban him, people are just going to jump to the next best thing, right? It’s a never-ending cycle. Ban one thing, another gets to run wild. Ban that, something else comes out of the woodworks because its check is gone.
I’m pretty sure Bious banned all the Megas that Smogon did. I don’t think he’ll ban Lucario either, but that isn’t the issue. This is setting a bad example for the community as a whole.
taunt stops the shitty SD slash set, seriously, that set sucks dick
the best set is shadow ball/secret sword/filler/king’s sheild, even autotomize is better than the SD set
aegislash’s power is really fucking good, most taunt users are 2HKO’d by his moves
wait so just about ALL megas are gone now?? wtf has happened since October?
no, i only mentioned that smogon had 3 pokemon suspect tested at once and po flipped his shit, mega lucario happens to be one of them and is most likely the last mega poke to be in threat of getting banned (it will be on smogon)
there is going to be a mega-less tournament here soon
but no, not all megas are banned, only the broken ones
Short answer: Smogon. They caused a domino effect with the way they started banning things.
I did not. I did put them in a “Need to be tested” bracket.
Speaking of that…
(I did almost ban Mega-Mama but decided to move it back to the test bracket.)
Still? Lol… How’s that even going to work?
What I WANTED was for everyone to give detailed opinions on if those Pokemon truly affected the SRK metagame in a negative way.
But it always turned into the Po and Mood power hour, so I was waiting for PokeBank to hit so we’d have everything to work with. Unfortunately it got delayed.
they will not go down the slippery slope with the megas, mega lucario will be the only one for a while unless something comes up, it’s still possible but the fact mega lucario is broken and a mega is just coincidence
You’ve said this since the beginning, but things have gone and are going as we predicted.
Competitive Pokemon is like the food chain… You remove one thing, another will rise and take its place because what previously kept it in check is now gone. This is because the entire structure of things changes when you take something out. There is no slippery slope here, just a domino effect.
If you think the meta game is going to be the exact same just without Mega Lucario, you’re mistaken due to the aforementioned reasons.
