Alright guys, I'm calling it here. After a less-than-stellar 5-5 start, I went 8-2 yesterday. Now I've gone another 4-0, finishing by defeating a Japanese player ranked 1738. That makes my record 17-7, and I figure my rating is about 1650-1660.
This is usually the point where I want to stop, end up continuing, and crash and burn in the end. I am stopping this time.
If I had a perfectly bred Gourgeist, I'd keep going, as the Frisk Choice Band Trick set has turned out to be an excellent lead; however, I feel that the further I go up the ladder, the more those imperfect IVs will end up costing me.
I have to give props to my wife, though. She stuck it out in this competition with a Gourgeist with no EV training, terrible IVs, and the Mystery Gift moveset, as well as minimal guidance from me, and ended up going 15-15.
BTW: For those still playing, Seed Bomb is unusually potent Sableye repellent!
