We've decided to change the Glicko2 back to 1900, because a few users have been having issues getting to 2000. Due to that you'll only need to get a Glicko2 of 1900 and a deviation of less than 100 in order to qualify for the Hall of Fame this week.

FLCL, on the other hand, gets a special prize if he reaches 2000. ;)

Changing my alt, purely because of hax today. Yesterday I got to 8-1, today I have only got a freeze in terms of hax in my favor today, of which the opponent immediately thawed out at.

Whereas I have had at least 4 crits on me per match, as well as like 10 misses of 90% accurate moves per 3 matches and the opponent hitting every focus miss. o_o
If there is a god out there, then he hates me.

Anyway, my new alt will be "Ace trainer Fran". Simply because the name Fran is funny, and there is a dude called it in HG. (Yes, I remember random stuff like that. :/)

If you are still waiting for your Pokemon, feel free to VM me and let me know, and I will generate a team for you. I'm fairly busy at the moment, but I will get to you as soon as I can. I'm not sure who all Starships got to at the moment, but it sounds like I need to get the above three users. Will confirms with Star when she gets online.

Also, I will get to updating the Hall of Fame as soon as I can, as I know there are at least a couple who have made it! Keep it going guys; you're doing really well! :]

 

[skylight]

PMed all three since Treecko is busy right now. :)

edit: I did Annoyer too. YOU BETTER READ MY POSTS TREECKO.

the team possessed nigh no defensive synergy, with no fighting or water resistances, and multiple weaknesses to those types. nevertheless i was able to reach the hall of fame simply by applying continuous offensive pressure. MVPs of this team were undoubtedly eelektross (who i gave a custom EV spread to outspeed the annoying relaxed seismitoad) and combusken. ive never used these two pokemon, so major thanks to this challenge for giving me them. my next NU team will definetly incorporate these, and i intend to use comusken in RU as well because its such a freaking BEAST.

to beat fighting types i mainly relied on piloswine being able to tank a CC from primeape and ohkoing with earthquake, aftermath and chip sucker punch damage from skuntank, eel's bulk, carracosta's aqua jet and scarf rapidash.

skuntank basically fucks over every jynx out there, so all is good
