SRK Competitive Pokemon Battling Thread: Logoghoul and White Shadow Win! Bye Gen 6!

General Discussion

Yea, but these are Smogon classes. I’m sure there are going to be tiers, but they’ll be our own.

Btw, it’s a good thing the Vs Recorder works the way it does… We’ll be able to share our battles through a code, and store up to 100 of them.

22

We’ll look into the Legendaries, that’s it. If you’re not a Legendary, you’re free.

23

Amen.

…wait how is sleep treated in battles? I skipped out on Gen 5 but I heard there was a fiasco about how sleep wasn’t removable in exchanging pokemon?

Edit: Holy shit open season? Damn. I better give my absol that preperationH to hold onto.

24

The sleep counter (basically how many turns you had till you woke up), reset each time you switched, meaning a sleeping Pokemon was basically dead since switching is so common. They changed it back so now when you switch the counter stays the same.

25

Yeah that seems vicious, I actually don’t even know why I’m concerned with the stuff going on here, I’m probably just gonna be breeding for my crew for the most a part. lol

26

Time to be a total bitch with Power Herb Xerneas.

27

What’s a Xerneas to a Mega Scizor?

28

I’m gonna Taunt all you guys so hord…

29

oooh does the PBS still exist?

30

It does, but I think they’re still preparing for Gen 6.

31

So you guys are saying that we can pick a top tier with no limits?

32

At this point, sure, go wild. Assessments will be made later down the line when more people (like myself for example) get the game and PokeBank opens up allowing for more integration.

33

fuck smogon, lets get rowdy in this biotch!

Standard rules should apply. Items on.

34

So, who wants to be my Scizor’s 1st 2nd victim?

35

i could be a dick and say that you guys will eventually create a metagame that resembles what smogon does but i’ll let it roll out

i’m more interested on how you guys would determine tiering

36

Then be a dick. Nothing gets accomplished with people feigning politeness. If you got something you want to say, then say it, otherwise don’t bother hinting at shit in the first place.

As for Tiering, no tiers. At MOST, some Legendaries get bopped, that’s it.

37

so…basically smogon OU, gotcha

38

Except Excadrill and Blaziken won’t get touched, and so won’t half the legendaries on that list.

If anything, we can just make a blanket touch that doesn’t involve our opinion. No Cover Legendaries + Mewtwo. And that’s it, it’s clean, fair, done.

39

Edit: Never mind

40

that’s fine, but speed boost blaziken is still fucking retarded
