The Battle of Hueco Mundo [OU Warstory] Now with dual narration!

Hi guys, this is my first warstory. I've been wanting to write one of these forever, but I never had time. This battle against hypervortex took place randomly while I was laddering for the hell of it, I thought it was pretty good so I decided to post it. Later, I came to find out he was actually on the top half of the leaderboard, so that was pretty random. This was supposed to be a double-commentary warstory from the very beginning, but unfortunately, Mr. hypervortex was too cool to answer my PMs sooner. Anyway, now that he sent me his part of the commentary (5 days later! -_-), you can enjoy the other side of this battle. I named the story "The Battle of Hueco Mundo" because it features the team in my newest RMT, "Welcome to Hueco Mundo." Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.

Rules:
  • Ladder Match
  • Sleep Clause
  • Freeze Clause
  • OHKO Clause
  • Evasion Clause
  • Species Clause

hypervortex sent out Azelf.

Azelf - 100%

Azelf - 100%


Mirror match, not a bad start since my Azelf is more specialized to take on other Azelf. If you checked out the RMT before you read this you know what I mean. I hope he Taunts as I U-turn out, so that I can potentially prevent Stealth Rock from being set up, but if he doesn't, that's okay too.

Alright, Azelf vs Azelf. Not totally uncommon. Doubt that it could really pose a problem... I'm thinking most likely a U-turner like all the rest. I decide to just take the hit and set up Stealth Rock while I'm at it.


Azelf used Stealth Rock.
Pointed stones float in the air around the foe's team!
Azelf used U-turn.
It's super effective!
Azelf lost 65% of its health.

Flygon lost 6% of its health.

dpicon330.png
Flygon - 94%
dpicon482.png
Azelf - 35%


Meh, Stealth Rock doesn't hurt my team much so I don't mind him getting it off. I send in ScarfGon to kill off his lead with U-turn, and send mine back in to hopefully get my own Rocks up.

FUCK! Must be a Scarfgon... my absolute worst enemy, comparable only to Infernape, Starmie, and Gengar. U-turn is SUCH a bitch...ugh. Along with the measly 6% it takes from Stealth Rocks. The U-turn is pretty predictable early game, so I decide to absorb it and save Azelf for an Explosion later on, hopefully. Heatran, enjoy your 4x resist.


hypervortex switched Heatran.
Flygon used U-turn.
It's not very effective...
Heatran lost 6% of its health.

Change of plans here, he predicts my U-turn very well and goes to his Heatran to resist it. At this point I'm fearing ScarfTran so I decide not to send Azelf back out just yet, instead going for the safer option in Vaporeon.

kokoloko switched in Vaporeon.
Pointed stones dug into Vaporeon.
Vaporeon lost 12% of its health.
Vaporeon's leftovers restored restored 6% of its health.

dpicon134.png
Vaporeon - 94%
dpicon485.png
Heatran - 94%


Since I highly doubt a near full health Heatran would Explode this early, I predict a switch here and decide to scout his team a bit, with Roar.

Damn it, stonewalled. I have Hidden Power, which 2hkos most Vaporeon with Life Orb, but I don't want to risk getting Surfed. I'm going to my all-star, Shaymin.


hypervortex switched in Shaymin.
Vaporeon used Roar.
hypervortex switched in Azelf.

dpicon482.png
Azelf - 35%


Fuck, a Shaymin, the bane of my life! At least I didn't let it get in on Vaporeon, so it wasn't that bad. I dragged Azelf back out... I was hoping to reveal another team member, but whatever. I decide to Protect here, as, unlike Heatran, Azelf is very likely to use Explosion early-game, and I wouldn't mind a free kill.

Never mind, apparently I'm going to Azelf. Explosion is the obvious move, and dang Vappy always has Protect, so I guess I'll just fire off a Psychic and Explode next turn.


Vaporeon used Protect.
Vaporeon protected itself!
Azelf used Psychic.

Vaporeon - 100%
dpicon482.png
Azelf - 35%


Well that didn't work, but no biggie, I'm thinking he's going to try to Explode now that I've used Protect, so I switch to Rotom for the immunity.

Nothin doing. Kaboom baby.


kokoloko switched in Rotom-H.
Pointed stones dug into Rotom-H.
Rotom-H lost 12% of its health.
Azelf used Explosion.

Azelf - dead.


There's my free kill. Not much else to say here...

... I'm a noob. At least it's a Rotom-H, and it's got Lefties... so, meet Heatran.


kokoloko 6 - 5 hypervortex

hypervortex switched in Heatran.

Here, I have a choice. Since this team sort of revolves around getting a Lucario sweep, I usually depend on Rotom for paralyzing shit like ScarfTran who can ruin that. This leads me to want to just stay in and Thunder Wave, as I can survive a Fire Blast, cripple Heatran, and then use Rotom as death fodder later. However, I decide to play it a bit safer and switch in my unrevealed Heatran to try to absorb the incoming Fire Blast.

Time to burn shit up... actually, I foresee Vaporeon coming in again, so I guess i'll Substitute, just to knock it up a bit with HP Electric.


kokoloko switched in Heatran.

Heatran made a substitute!

dpicon485.png
Heatran - 69%


Instead though, I get met by a Substitute, and since I don't feel like taking an Earth Power to the face just to try and break his Sub, I go to Azelf on the predicted Earth Power.

Ok, he brought in his own Heatran, nice. I don't know what his item is, but I'm betting its Specs'd or something. I really have no idea, but I do know that it won't like an Earth Power to the face... I'll just Fire Blast his switchin. Hopefully it's Flygon.


kokoloko switched in Azelf.

dpicon482.png
Azelf - dead.
dpicon485.png
Heatran - 59%


... but it blows up in my face due to an awesome prediction by hypervortex. Here, a couple of important things happened: First, I'm not getting Rocks up this match, as Azelf is my Stealth Rocker; and second, I notice his Heatran is Life Orbed, which means an easy kill for Lucario, as long as he's not behind a Sub.

Good enough. Not Flygon though. Bring it on, kokoloko XD.


kokoloko 5 - 5 hypervortex

kokoloko switched in Vaporeon.
Pointed stones dug into Vaporeon.
Vaporeon lost 12% of its health.

After last turn's disheartening turn of events, I decide to send in Vaporeon and Roar out Heatran and his stupid Sub, hopefully scouting some more of his team in the process.

Heatran used Hidden Power.
It's super effective!
Vaporeon lost 44% of its health.

Vaporeon - 44%
dpicon248.png
Tyranitar - 100%


However, his Heatran hits Vaporeon with a super-effective Hidden Power on his way out, cutting her health in half. I also see Tyranitar gets dragged out, which is good since I had not seen him before. The only thing that bugs me is that Sand Stream is now cancelling Vaporeon's and Rotom's leftovers, but I can deal. I strongly suspect he's Scarfed since his Heatran is not, so I decide to scout which move he'll lock himself into, with Protect.

Alright, Tyranitar says hi. I can ohko this fool with Stone Edge now, so I'm going to go for it... Hopefully he switches in Flygon now. Gotta get some damage on that evasive bug-eyed freak.


Vaporeon used Protect.

Stone Edge huh? Okay, time to reveal the cool guy, Lucario.

Ah damn. Should've seen that comin and Dragon Danced. That would've lured in Flygon for sure. I'm a noob. Hopefully that's portrayed the image of Scarf or Band though... I guess I'll keep with it.


kokoloko switched in Lucario.

Lucario lost 3% of its health.

Lucario lost 21% of its health.

dpicon448.png
Lucario - 76%
dpicon248.png
Tyranitar - 100%


At this point I'm operating under the assumption that his Tyranitar is Scarfed, so I Crunch expecting him to switch in a Ghost-type, predicting my Close Combat. However here, I find out why assuming shit, with nothing more than circumstantial evidence, is a terrible idea.

Shit, the best 4x Rock resist in the game, and the only one? All I know is if it gets a Swords Dance up, shit will go down. That's not good. Please don't CC my slow ass.


Lucario used Crunch.
It's not very effective...

Tyranitar - 85%


"o.O fuck..." That was my reaction. Not only did I do jack-shit to his Tyranitar, but I lost my main sweeper for nothing. Usually, doing what I did works out very well, as it removes Lucario's main check. However, after having finished the battle and looking over his team, I realized that aside from his own Lucario, he had no Lucario check (I had no way of knowing this at the time though). Therefore, staying in, hoping I would try something like I did, or even try to set up, makes sense. I guess I did "overpredict," but that's just the way I play, since nine out of ten times it yields a positive result. But I digress... back to the battle. At this point, I felt like giving up after such a terrible turn of events. However, I decide to just make this my last match for the day, and to finish it with some dignity.

Sexy as hell. Scarftar around the world, I love you guys.


kokoloko 4 - 5 hypervortex

kokoloko switched in Flygon.
Pointed stones dug into Flygon.
Flygon lost 6% of its health.

I send out Flygon, and consider my options. Last time Flygon was out, he sent his Heatran in to take the U-turn, and with no Rocks on his side, he can do so again without losing much; because of this, I consider using Earthquake. However, I decide that allowing his Shaymin a semi-free switch into Earthquake is much worse than U-turning into Heatran, as with the latter I still retain momentum. With this in mind, I decide to U-turn right back out to scout his switch, as even if he doesn't switch, Tyranitar still takes a lot from Adamant ScarfGon's U-turn, so its a win-win here.

I see the U-turn coming again, and I bring in Heatran to take it.


hypervortex switched in Heatran.

Heatran - 75%


hypervortex switches in Heatran, predicting my U-turn, but that's okay, since I get to keep the momentum on my side. At this point I'm kicking myself for letting Azelf die though, since Stealth Rock would be really wearing down his Heatran. I send out my own Heatran in to try to psych him into thinking I'm Scarfed and force his switch. Also, since I'm pretty sure he is going to switch, I decide to keep that illusion intact by simply using Earth Power.

Unfortunately, he bring in his. I still don't know its set, so I'm hoping it's Scarf so I can set up on a weak Earth Power. Don't want to risk the speed tie anyways.

dpicon245.png
Suicune - 77%


Ooh! A SpD drop. The first meaningful hax of the match, although it doesn't really mean much to be honest, just a bit of extra damage next turn. I decide to play it risky here; predicting a Calm Mind, I stay in, give up the fact that my Heatran isn't actually Scarfed, and use Hidden Power Electric on his Cune. This is to scout wether it's an offensive version or not. The SpD drop did an extra like 12% to him so whatever.

Special Defense drop? Whatever yo. I'm still going to set up on your Choice-Locked ass.


Suicune used Calm Mind.
Suicune's special attack was raised.

Suicune - 41%


Okay, so he's faster, probably an offensive version then. Here, I predict he'll go for the Surf and try and kill Hetran, so I switch to Vaporeon to try and regain some health...

Nvm, not Choice-Locked at all. Ballsy move to stay in. My health is bein compromised. Well now that he knows I'm faster and +1, he's not going to stay in. Let's see what he brings to the party.

Suicune - 41%


... but I get met with a Roar which drags out Flygon. This, along with the amount of damage Heatran did with HP Electric, leads me to belive its the good old CM-Roar set that was popular way back when. This is important, because it lets me deduce that Flygon is nowhere near strong enough to take out Cune in one shot. Because of this, I decide to U-turn out and bring in Vaporeon on a predicted Surf.

Smart enough. Hoping to absorb my Surf, kokoloko brings in Vaporeon and I'm face to face with Flygon again. If I can land a Surf on him, he's useless and Extremespeed bait for Lucario... but if he brings in Vaporeon again, I'll just have undid all the damage I've done. I predict the U-turn and go for HP Electric. Please bring in Vappy.

... but hypervortex outpredicts me once again! This time, it costs me my Vaporeon. Again, a very demoralizing turn for me, but at least I know I can KO his Suicune with Rotom now. Revenge time!

Awesome, a free kill! Sadly, Suicune is now weak as fuck, and hasn't done jack except kill a 32% Vaporeon. I'm starting to get this ominous feeling.

Yay, dead Suicune. Not much else to say here.

And Rotom comes in on the revenge kill. I hope it doesn't have Overheat and bring in Shaymin to knock it up with some Seed Flare.


kokoloko 3 - 4 hypervortex

hypervortex switched in Shaymin.

When I was playing this game and saw that Shaymin came out, I thought to myself "I might still win this." I was planning to take the Seed Flare (which I know I can live due to max HP) and then hit him with Overheat to weaken him enough so that I could maybe pull off some kind of sweep.

Shaymin used Seed Flare.
A critical hit!

... but I get critted... man that was like a STAB to the heart (haha, get it? no? okay I'll stop). I was seriously getting ready to ragequit at this point, I could not belive how bad this game had gone for me... Ready to give up, I decide to ask hypervortex on the chat who his last unrevelaed pokemon was. He tells me it's Lucario. At this point, a plan concocts in my mind, and from here on out, I decide to operate under the assumption that he was telling the truth.

Ok, a crit. I guess I'll never know whether or not it has Overheat, but eh. Jubilation descends upon me as I realize I can OHKO Heatran with Earth Power and OHKO Flygon with Hidden Power Ice. Te game is MINE, bro. GG.

dpicon485.png
Heatran - 12%
dpicon492.png
Shaymin - 22%


Step one, complete. Since I was operating under the assumption that his last pokemon was indeed Lucario, the only thing I needed Heatran to do was weaken that Shaymin enough so that I could potentially get a Flygon Earthquake sweep. Heatran had now accomplished that goal, both due to his berry, and despite Shaymin's. The only variables at this point were: One, whether or not he was telling the truth, and two, how bulky his Tyranitar was (I had yet to figure out his set this entire battle). Now, I needed to get Flygon in safely, so I decide to sacrifice Heatran here, putting myself at a 4-1 disadvantage, but potentially ensuring my win.

FUCKKKKKK. ShucaTran, I hate you. Now weak as hell, I have no chance of standing up to ScarfGon, even EQ. I'm in a position to get swept. I take a long time to make the obvious move (Earth Power). He's not bringing in Flygon, regardless. Plus, Heatran's worthless to him now. He's done his evil job.

kokoloko 1 - 1 hypervortex

hypervortex switched in Tyranitar.
Tyranitar's Sand Stream whipped up a sandstorm!

Okay, the moment of truth. Even though this Flygon is Adamant, I got kind of worried here, as the only reason I could think of that he would send out Tyranitar after Lucario is because he thinks he can live an Earthquake. And since I still didn't know what kind of Tyranitar he was, he could easily have been a bulky variant. Here's some damage calcs for your reading pleasure (his Tyranitar is at 85%):

Adamant ScarfGon Earthquake vs. 4/0 Tyranitar: 80.7% - 95.3%
Adamant ScarfGon Earthquake vs. 252/0 Tyranitar: 68.3% - 80.7%
Adamant ScarfGon Earthquake vs. 160/0 Tyranitar: 72.4% - 85.6%

So even the least bulky Tyranitar has chance to survive at 85%. Shit, I really wish I had gotten those Rocks up earlier. Anyway, here goes nothing...


My only hope is Tyranitar. Luckily, he's only taken damage from Lucario's Crunch...and with no SR/Spikes up, I have a GREAT chance to survive. Max Attack Jolly Scarfgon with Earthquake Damage Calcs: 74.5% - 88.0% to min/min TTar. GO BABY. Bring this one home! Judgment Day has arrived.

kokoloko 1 - 0 hypervortex

kokoloko wins!

FUCK YEA! Great game dude.

PWNT. Tyranitar, like three others before him, rolls over and dies. Giant Rock/Dark pussy. I suspect a high damage roll, but I later learn that his Scarfgon is Adamant, fuck Scarfrachi/other Scarfgon. How unfortunate. Props to kokoloko for totally counter-teaming me. Just kidding, lol. I congratulate him on beating my leaderboard ass and conserving his Flygon like an OCD environmentalist conserves plastic. After the battle, he passingly mentions a warstory, I've heard that jawn before, and I never expect it to show up, but a couple days later, here it is, and it's pretty damn good. XD


- Props & Slops -

Props:
  • My super-awesome Flygon for pulling an awesome 4 pokemon sweep in the end. <3 MVP most definitely goes to you!
  • hypervortex for being a good sport, and an awesome opponent.
  • Me, for not giving up even though I really thought I should.
  • My Heatran, for allowing Flygon to sweep.
  • Me, for actually thinking through my moves at the end.

Slops:
  • My Azelf, for not even getting Stealth Rock up this game.
  • My Lucario, for dying without doing shit.
  • His Shaymin, for getting that crit against Rotom, which could have cost me the game.
  • His Suicune, for being an annoying, hard to kill, motherfucker.
  • His Azelf, for Exploding on Rotom.
I'm cool, and I forgot to send koko my props and slops before logging back off. Dick... -_- lol
 
I hate Flygon...

In other news, this was really great! It was professional, featured enough unorthodox Pokémon to keep me on my toes but it wasn't a gimmick fest and your thought processes were clear throughout.

**** because I don't like Flygon :P
 
It was a great match with good commentary and neat presentation. Personal question, would you have given up had he not revealed his last pokemon?

It just goes to show that you should never give up, no matter what.

In other news, this was really great! It was professional, featured enough unorthodox Pokémon to keep me on my toes but it wasn't a gimmick fest and your thought processes were clear throughout.

**** because I don't like Flygon :P

Thanks a lot man. But, FUCK YOU I LOVE FLYGON! lol

Very nice warstory. Your thought processes were clear, and a great sweep by Flygon in the end. Good job!!

Thank you very much.

It was a great match with good commentary and neat presentation. Personal question, would you have given up had he not revealed his last pokemon?

It just goes to show that you should never give up, no matter what.

9/10

Hm, Im not quite sure, really. Probably not though, since my connection was lagging so bad I could barely click anything. lol

nice battle man
I suggest you switch lucario's attacks to work as a reveng killer

Thanks, but I don't know what you mean about Lucario, he's not meant to be a revenge killer, so I'm confused.
 
Very good warstory! Excellent presentation, good commentary and a battle that was warstory worthy.
Also, nice comeback. ^^
 
God, I miss all of hypervortex's good matches. >_>

Besides my self-pity, it was a good game, coupled with good commentary.

This was a very good read, your thought processes were well explained and the battle featured a nice recovery from a bad scenario. 8 or 9 out of 10 for sure.

Thank you, I appreciate it.

So because you seem to know who hypervortex is, I decided to look him up. Turns out, he's 19th on the leaderboard and I didn't even know lol. Oh well.

Thank you, btw.
 
Good read, excellent come-from-behind victory! Just goes to show you should always stick it out to the very end.

I think hypervortex may have cost himself the match by revealing his Lucario...but then again I'm not sure the events would have played out any differently unless he either said he had a flying type (or something immune to Earthquake), or he lied about having a Lucario. Quite a gamble on your part, and it definitely paid off.
 
Very nice warstory good playing on both sides with lots of nice predictions, and the presentation was also very good.

Also Flygon is amazing.
 
I liked it (go Flygon!!) but to be fair you only won cause he reveled luc and you went for an earthquake sweep.
 
I did not see the ending coming at all; but wow, good job for both of you. Incredible predicting on hypervortex's part, and what a good sport you are. :)

Good presentation, and entertaining. (yes, I did get that STAB to the heart lmao. xDDD)
 
that was an awesome battle and one of the best warstories ive read in a long time. great predictions and a lucky turn of events made it a great read.

ps: i too love flygon.

If he hadn't told me, I'm not quite sure what I would have done. The most logical succession of events was probably doing the same thing I did though, regardless of information, as it was my only shot at winning.

Also, thanks for the compliments.

Thank you very much. And hell yeah he is!

Flygon, woop! About the battle, I don't think the fact that he revealed Lucario matters much though, considering that part of battling is trying to get information. It matters even less when you consider I would have won for sure if his Shaymin didn't critical hit my Rotom. Yeah, my means might be considered "tricky" or whatever, but it worked. Also, after the battle, hypervortex and I had a pretty lengthy conversation about the battle, and he didn't seem to mind as he even agreed to the warstory, so yeah.

Haha, thanks man, good to know, I was a bit worried about the ending, since sweeps are usually boring. Also, yeah hypervortex is pretty good, and a cool guy. Thanks for the compliments man, I appreciate it.

Hell yeah, Flygon is great, favorite mon of all time. Also, thanks for the compliments!
 
This was really great for a first warstory! Nice comments and you show knowledge of the game. My only complaint was you prematurely finding out Lucario; however, looking at the rest of his team, you'd have the best shot with Earthquake anyway.

I await your next warstory! 8.5/10
 
This was a nice read for me. As stated before, it was just a bit out of the ordinary, but not to the point of being gimmicky. The one thing that put me off a bit, though, was his repeated outplaying you. But even that was not bad, especially considering that little to-and-fro with Explosion. I haven't seen it play out that way before. And showed that you have a very good idea of what you're doing and (more importantly) why you're doing them in each of your plays. All in all, I'd say that the parts came together quite nicely. Good job!

Also, echoing 90% of the people here, Flygon is awesome.
 
Very well written. It has good format, it's pleasing on the eyes. More importantly, it was a very good read, and despite a bit of bad luck(ok a lot of bad luck), you where still able to think clearly a pull of the win. Kudos

9.5/10

Edit: flygon is fucking awesome

Like I said in my last post, considering the fact that gathering information is part of battling, and the fact that he got a very important crit which could have potentially cost me the game, I don't consider my asking about his last pokemon a "bad" thing, per se. Thanks for the compliment though.

Admittedly, I was definitely off my game here; between my lagging connection which was pissing me off, and the House marathon which was playing on TV, you could say I was a bit distracted. lol. Thanks for the compliments man, and hell yeah Flygon is great.

Thanks a lot man, I appreciate it. Woop, Flygon!
 
Uh, you pretty much got outplayed in spite of all your reasoning and outhaxed at one point. You were lucky that half his team was weak to earthquake in the first place. Countless times you assumed things without scouting switches or moves. Its just really sloppy play and like I said, you were lucky he overlooked the fact his whole team outside of his suicide lead only had one resistance to ground.

Although suicune might as well have a resistance to ground I guess.


:/
 
Good warstory. I wouldn't say he got outplayed in most cases. He was just playing somewhat conservatively which isn't unusual towards the beginning; his opponent wasn't, and it paid off.

The only thing I really noticed was when you used U-turn against Tyranitar when Earthquake would have hit Tyranitar if he stayed in and Heatran if he switched.
 
Crunching when a Tyranitar out isn't playing conservatively. Jus saying. He learned his lesson about not assuming the opponents set so its all good. Just doesn't make for good reading.

I find the majority of players don't scout correctly with their Lucario. Maybe his defenses make them try to go for big damage right away or set up the agility/swords dance.

edit: Its fucking hilarious when they try to set up on Weavile. Get a low kick followed by an ice shard for the ko.

Man, your post really makes it hard to be polite, but I'll try to be as respectful in my reply as possible =)

1. How exactly did I get outplayed despite all my reasoning? Yes, he predicted a lot of my moves, but so did I.
2. Yes, me getting outhaxed and still pulling off a win maes this a terrible battle. /sarcasm
3. Yes, Shaymin is definitely not a good switch in to Ground. /sarcasm
4. Outside of me Crunching his Tyranitar in an attempt to catch an incoming Ghost-type (which pays off 80%+ of the time, btw), when exactly did I make assumptions?
5. Yes, I played so sloppily that I won, despite getting so badly haxed it almost cost me the game. /sarcasm
and 6. Once again, Shaymin, ground resistance. Also, how is his (according to your logic) "bad" team, me getting lucky? Yes, eliminating and/or weakening his ground resists in order to pull a Flygon sweep is me "just being lucky." /sarcasm

Usually, I don't like confrontation, but this is a seriously retarded post. If you didn't like the warstory, fine, I don't really care, as everyone else seems to think it was good. If you want to criticize my warstory, do me a favor and at least make sense when you do so.

/rant

EDIT: He said early game, when I Crunched with Lucario it was clearly NOT early game. Once again, make sense. But since you run Weavile I guess it's understandable...

EDIT 2: Ugh, I can't believe I actually got dragged into an internet flame war -_- I should be ashamed of myself. Consider this the last time I'll address you, as I'd rather not have my thread deleted over something stupid.

Good warstory. I wouldn't say he got outplayed in most cases. He was just playing somewhat conservatively which isn't unusual towards the beginning; his opponent wasn't, and it paid off.

Thank you, you understand. About that turn though, I was doubting he would switch Heatran into Flygon again, so I decided some scouting would be better. Considering even if he switched Heatran in, I would be okay; but if he switched in Shaymin, for example, I would have been fucked.
 
pretty good warstory hypervortex played really well as did you (i think he might have even outplayed you a bit) but it was an enjoyable read. if i could rate threads i would probably 5 star it but i cant :(
 
I actualy liked this warstory. The commends were great. I guess your opponients 3 ground weaknesses came back to haunt him in the end.

@probationsmack
He did make a mispredict regarding Tyranitar (did you actualy find out its item after the battle Kokoloko?) but that does not mean that he got outplayed. Mispredicts often occur when you are trying to activally predict your opponint since sometimes it cames down to 50% calls.

Anyway I loved the Warstory and hope you write some more kokoloko!

Have a Nice Day!

lol. Yeah he definitely outplayed me badly at some points during the battle. Thanks for the compliment dude.

After the battle, hypervortex told me it was a Dragon Dance Tyranitar, so I'm pretty sure it was a resist berry, probably Babiri. Thanks for the compliments dude, I appreciate it a lot.

Note to self: Don't make my opponent sound like he's outplaying me over and over again on my next warstory. lol
