Irioku you willing to battle?
Im down if you’re willing
I was gone a few hours but I’m back around now for some games, just hop on anyone.
So I just found out the team that i used last year is 5/6 banned… lame…
hooh
groudin
woboffut
mewtwo
kingdra
deoxys…
lame…
anyone up for a battle?
Back in the R/B tourneys I went to years ago had mewtwo allowed. Everybody ran a mewtwo on their team lol and at least one counter for it. But yep over time everything just dictated itself and now uber/super pokes got the boot from the metagame.
wasn’t the typical team back then…
mewtwo
alakazam
jolteon (pin missle to counter mewtwo + alakazam)
snorlax
seadra / lapras / dragonite
dragonite / charizard / arcanine
and i think the most popular, at least that I knew, was dragonite and arcanine.
Yup it went something like that. Some other notable ones were zapdos’s typing and parasect’s spore, I think Seadra would of really been good if it became water/dragon at second stage, excellent coverage and not a lot of dragon moves in G1 (all I can remember is rage even)
Lapras was good for being one of the few bulky water types. And since most rock pokes were stuck with ground this time around, people were scared to use them. Most popular was definitely Kazam/Snorlax.
dont forget tauros with his hyper beam of DOOOOM!
I used Electrode w/ Explosion to counter Metwo back in the day. Wrap + Toxic Tentacruel was a BEAST!
Ephie you up for a battle?
yeah jump on w.shadow =)
It’s official, I have ridiculously bad luck. GG Eph, at least it wasn’t like Survivor this time.
Rematch?
yeah jump on, down for a rematch.
Uh oh I just started a battle with Chopa, afterwards k?
Ok I guess life orb does not deal you damage when killing subs
GG shadow, my team wanted a ground type to absorb those t bolts
OK Eph I’m ready.
GG Chopa, yeah unless you do actual damage Life Orb won’t activate. That includes Protect/Detect.
GG Eph.
OMG that STAB 394 ATK Focus Punch on Blissey Felt SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD!:lovin:
That’s not possible…Drac had a choice band, 602 attack over breloom’s defenses should be gg. But it survived Ice Fang, but…how?
Gah, gg. I hate brelooms.
The Breloom I have has more-than-standard HP EVs for full Toxic recovery. Non-Standard EV Spreads FTW!
holy sh*t ephy!!! im sorry but i have to say it and i have to call you ephy right now…my team kicked the scrambled eggs out of blissey! killing her with thunderbolt was no fun at all but it worked (unbelievable) i had NO physical attackers on my team, i got NO crits, i was frozen so many turns! i thought i was finished in the beginning when she came out!
im still in awe. gg.
