Hatin on 5th gen UU =(. GJ as always guys.

We deserve to hate on PO's 5th Gen UU. Latias was just banned...FROM UU. And Terakion is currently a UU suspect. That, my friends, is terrible tiering.

So, um, is this ever going to get a YouTube version? I can't seem to do anything with the MP3 version other than just listen to it, and I don't like that.

**Seven Deadly Sins** · Jan 30th, 2011, 8:24:53 PM

Not exactly sure you're clear on what the Youtube version is- it's just the same audio in 10 minute segments with a static image. Mainly it's for people that want to listen to it in more bite-size parts rather than all at once.

For those of you who prefer watching the Smogcast in bite-size parts as Seven Deadly Sins said above, I have created and uploaded the Youtube version of the Smogcast.

You can find the playlist in its entirety here: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_lis...79590FC878D794

Much love to Symphony, he is indeed the man.

**capefeather** · Jan 31st, 2011, 10:53:35 AM

Yeah, I was alluding to having the ability to stop, skip to certain parts, etc. and I haven't found anything that could do that in the MP3 version. I'm feeling a bit dumb right now because I suspect that there is a way to do all that on the MP3 version, but whatever, there's a YouTube version out now. Thanks, Symphony!

symphonyx64 · Jan 31st, 2011, 7:31:03 PM

I see what you're saying.

In that case, its probably a limitation by your browser/plugin. If you right click the "Direct Download Link" on page one, you can select "save target as" or something similar (applies to Windows and Macs), you'll then be able to directly download the MP3 file and listen to it in your favorite media player as you would with any other song.

**Seven Deadly Sins** · Jan 31st, 2011, 7:56:08 PM

capefeather: are you using Chrome? It behaves very, very stupidly when you click on MP3 links, so what you need to do is right-click on it and click "Save link as..." and put it on your computer.

**capefeather** · Jan 31st, 2011, 9:35:05 PM

I was using Firefox, but yeah. Right-click + Save link as... of course.

Quote from PO player mind you ?
Terrakion sucks he has not so good stats and BAD TYPING.

Meanwhile on Smogon
Terrakion is boss. Double dance, Cb, Scarf, why dont we ban it ?
Many people : hell no

Are you kidding me? 108 speed is faster than everything not named Latios and 129 attack is huge when you've got perfect coverage with 120 and 100 BP STAB moves. 91/90/180 defenses in sandstorm are nothing to laugh at -- sure, you're weak to Bullet Punch and Aqua Jet, but the pokemon who can use those die to Close Combat which means you're getting a free kill at the least. Rock/Fighting typing has a lot of weaknesses but offers a lot of resistances as well, giving it the opportunity to set up a many choice moves. Righteous Heart gives it a free boost against the common Tyranitar too. Granted, it's overshadowed by Landlos and Doryuuzu, but in any other generation Terakion would be the premier sweeper. I think this post is indicative of what constitutes the PO tiering teams more than anything...

JSND · Feb 3rd, 2011, 12:50:20 PM

They just have no guts of using something with absurd power taht weakness is irrelevant while they have guts to use something so weak and is called MIXED SWEEPER in OU making it currently OU that has no chance whatsoever against the probably most threatening sweeper in the current metagame and as a mixed sweeper cant even beat the sturdiest(and most common) physcial wall and special wall ?
Gosh thats just funny

BTW in this meta tera isnt overshadowed by landloss whatsoever. His brute force is as unlogically powerful as Landlos and he has both power and speed to compare with Dory.
I use CB terakion and he work so well its too great

**capefeather** · Feb 3rd, 2011, 12:55:06 PM

I suspect that utility against Shadow Tag Chandelure is what's making Terrakion and Lati@s so low on the PO DW ladder and not on the Smogon ladder. That's the main reason we shouldn't pay much heed to DW UU.

JSND · Feb 4th, 2011, 6:15:46 AM

Isnt tera is one of the best abuser of shandera ? Shandy can weaken his checks)or kill it like scizor) and take care of scarfer and after opponent's shandy kill, Tera can practicaly get set up chance ?
TBH that one of my biggest reason to use terra back in Tr server

Quegg · Feb 4th, 2011, 5:11:16 PM

Latios is one the few Pokemon I will not use based purely on principle; it has NO business being allowed in standard, and you will be hard pressed to convince me otherwise. I'm perfectly content with my Sub Hydreigon, thank you.

DoubleJG · Mar 26th, 2011, 9:58:06 PM

I enjoyed this podcast almost as much as I enjoy #9. I got a good laugh when Stunfisk's cry was mentioned. These casts really help me get through the work days. It's a shame that there are only 9 out at the time being!
