Default National Pokemon Association- Week 3



~Approved by Alaka
Amazing thanks to Dozz for the banner and logos! He's the greatest!

Week 2 Recap:
Slow Week 2 as VGC 12 rules were announced and a tournament was started, but nonetheless the NPA shall continue on! I will allow extensions until Monday the 26th because that tournament has slowed down this one. Please get all matches done in time in the future.

The Wartortles proved that they have what it takes by securing the win the fastest yet again against the swift swimming Magikarp. The Escavaliers demolished the Afrobulls to be the other undefeated team in the league. The Scraftys secured their first victory over the Deoxys.

Also, the Week 1 scandal and rematch, activity win has been given to twash. Really Scrafty's?

Free Agency News:
None

General Battle Rules:

- All battles will be best two out of three
- Spectators will be up to the players and teams; if you are watching a battle and are asked to leave by the players or their teammates, it is in your best interest to leave or be punished.
- All battles MUST be done on PO.
- All teams can have SIX Pokémon on it, but each battle they will bring FOUR
- Doubles battles
- Managers should submit a team roster as to who is playing what tier prior to battling.
- Players should submit battle logs to me after your matches.

Specific Battle Rules:

Journey Across America

VGC 10

VGC 11: tennisace vs. The Wolf (2-1)
GBU Doubles: muffinhead vs. DukeTheDevil

Series tied 2-2

C= Captain
A= Assistant Captain
Week 3 is going to be intense as the Scraftys try to prove that they are not a fluke against the undefeated Wartortles while the Escavaliers try to stay undefeated against the San Antonio Spoinks. Spotlight matches for this week are:
  • makiri takes on mattj as the #1 draft pick continues to not produce as he still has not won a single battle. Will makiri be able to stop the undefeated mattj?
  • Fishy LOVES DRAGONS OMG takes on the young and impressionable JRank. Fishy LOVES DRAGONS OMG proved that she can handle it on the court last week, but will she be able to take on another drooling boy?
  • A little bit of international flavor as rubeNCB92 and twash meet again in what is a salty runback of the UK Finals. twash hopes to seek revenge on the Spaniard while rubeNCB92 hopes to show that Spain is mas fuerte and it's easy.
  • After a frustrating start in the first ever NPA, the Detroit Deoxys hope to be able to defeat the Afrobulls after their devastating loss to the Escavaliers.
Good luck to all this week!

All battles must be done by 11:59 PM (GMT -4) on Sunday, October 2nd.

For statistics and standings, please look at the spreadsheets here: http://tinyurl.com/npanumbers

I take full responsibility for my teams performance last week. I didn't prepare them enough for the match and decided to take an experimental approach to the game that obviously did not work out. We will be trying to ground ourselves this week and get back to the fundamentals. Again, I apologize to the fans for our terrible showing last week and congratulations to the Escavaliers for overcoming so much adversity.

O i was too lazy to predict last week but this week im stalling because id ont feel like going to bed yet yea!

i think i got like two right week one so look out miss cleo im comin




MR. FISH vs SLAKING
JAA: skarm vs. theamericandream38 skarm will follow in the footsteps of great canadians such as chaox and defeat america
VGC 09: mattj vs. makiri (C) paul too busy being a tcg sellout also mattj is scary
VGC 10: Firestorm (C) vs. GEC this user significantly less likely to use double team lugia
VGC 11: dtrain vs. Sapphire Birch because somehow it makes perfect sense to me to predict someone i beat over someone i didnt beat
GBU Doubles: Tyler vs. carl carl too close last two weeks not to get on the board for his team



WEAK BELTLESS SCRAFTY vs. STRONG BUOYANT WARTORTLE
JAA: iss vs. evan (A)
VGC 09: AlphaOmega vs. andrea
VGC 10: Cybertron (C) vs. TTS (C)
VGC 11: Solace (A) vs. Synre (A)
GBU Doubles: JRank (A) vs. Fishy LOVES DRAGONS OMG

Does it amuse anyone else that the team of drinking age ducks have the mascot of one of the original pokemon and team seniors has a BW pokemon?

No?


Fuck you guys :(


SPOINKS vs. ESCAVALEERS
JAA: Ninahaza vs. DeagleBeagle (C) if god exists he'll reward the Spoinks for this roster change and Jesus seems like the logical player for this to advantage
VGC 09: OmegaDonut (C) vs. Mosquito like id ever predict against suleski at anything
VGC 10: Evan Falco vs. Danukes much like when im making a moveset i made huy do the heavy lifting and fill this in for me
VGC 11: rubeNCB92 vs. twash gotta predict my SPL roster yo it makes me look good
GBU Doubles: Havak vs. Human (A) strong player likely to win game

oops i meant to predict the spoinks to win 3

DEOXYS IS A STUPID POKEMON vs. THE BUFFALO BILLS
JAA: zarator vs. Fish i would be stunned if this battle actually occurs but predicting against fish sounds stupid
VGC 09: ryuzaki vgc (C) vs. Sixonesix dam this battle likely to be awesome flag me down when you play
VGC 10: TDS vs. Sandman i havent actually seen tds play 10 but strong player
VGC 11: tennisace vs. The Wolf when did we get to the point where i felt good about predicting all the girls to win anyway
GBU Doubles: muffinhead vs. DukeTheDevil muffinhead doesnt even USE liepard in gbu wtf
