Well! I just lost a streak again, and I doubt I'm going to start another streak by tomorrow for the 1 year anniversary lol, not that my streak that significant or anything anyway. 145 streak in Double Battle Tower (Platinum). At least it is over half way to my best streak (271) this time.
Same team as my previous 120 streak:
Gengar Timid @ sash: Shadow Ball / Thunderbolt / Energy Ball / Destiny Bond
Metagross Adamant @ scarf: Explosion / Iron Head / Earthquake / Thunderpunch
Azelf Hasty @ Life Orb: Explosion / Psychic / Grass Knot / Flamethrower
Heatran Timid @ Lum Berry: Explosion / Flamethrower / Earth Power / Protect
How I lost:
I could have won lol. I wasn't thinking properly. It was a legends team with Articuno, Registeel, Regirock, Heatran.
1st turn:
Explosion + Thunderbolt on Registeel. Articuno fainted. Registeel used Earthquake for no damage to anyone.
// I just didn't want potential sheer cold
2nd turn: I switch in Azelf. Opp switched in Heatran.
Azelf Flamethrower KO Registeel. Genger Tbolt Heatran for some damage.
Heatran Dark Pulse Azelf KO.
// I did not want to explode with Azelf yet, since I thought Azelf could survive one hit from Heatran (so Azelf could explode to deal heavy damage or KO to the next switch in pokemn), and plus there's always the 50% chance that it'd attack Gengar instead. But nope. In retrospect, I should have just exploded with Gengar Tbolt KO Heatran, since 2 full health Pokemon (Gengar sash still intact) vs one remaining one has really good chance of winning...
3rd turn: I switch in Heatran. Opponent switched in Regirock.
My Heatran Protect. Gengar Energy Ball Regirock. >50% damage.
Heatran dark pulse Gengar sash. Regirock stone edge Gengar KO.
// I was thinking they'd attack Heatran. This turn = another mistake. So pretty much over now. I still did not look at the pokemon list though since I never seem to do that when playing haha. I figured op's heatran might not have earth power, so I EP Regirock for KO, but lo and behold op's heatran also has earth power and KO'd my Heatran.
What I SHOULD have done in 3rd turn was genger energy ball regirock, heatran earth power op's heatran for KO, because op's regirock probably isn't going to use EQ even if it has it since it KO's its own Heatran. Also, even if it did use EQ and KOs Heatran (it might not KO), since energy ball did >50% damage, gengar with its sash still intact would have KO'd the turn after even if it's the QC Regirock (I checked the pkmn list just now), and if it isn't the QC one, then lol, hammer arm wouldn't even KO heatran so in my 4th turn I should have attacked op's heatran. Interesting thing is that Shuca would have saved me in this match (my previous 120 streak had shuca), but there was a close match around 130-ish streak where lum might have saved me.
Anyway, basically, I made a ton of mistakes hehe.
