Ok AWailOfATail is in the other metas room all the time so I do not feel that this is exactly fair. Sure getting there at the right time is good but AWOAT is probably in the I'm room right now.

I thought I posted on your profile but apparently it didn't go through. A surprise lunch with my family came up and I had no clue about it. Sorry about that. I'm in the OM room now though.

We say goodbye to the following users, for they have perished in the fight of the Hunger Metagames:
- Peef Rimgar
- N3XYCH
- Anno nyme
- jrm115
- copycatcat
- potentially more, depending on the results below
blizzardy vs The Reptile and Albacore vs RotomPoison will be given short extensions
Anyway, activity wins have been given out. Time for the night phase.
However, a wild Chansey appeared from the wreckage of the overcrowded Hackmons zone and went on a rampage, leading to 3 random zones being destroyed. It is too dark to see which zones are remaining (it is night time after all). You will now PM me with zone numbers 1-9. When PMing, make the title of the conversation "Hunger Metagames: Zone X".
Please PM me by Sunday 10am EST. Remember that only 9 zones are left!

RotomPoison has been given the activity win over Albacore.
blizzardy has been given the coinflip win over The Reptile.
We say goodbye to Albacore and The Reptile, for they could not survive the harsh conditions of the Hunger Metagames.
With that, we have 2 additional participants perishing from the Hunger Metagames. Will the remaining participants drop at such a quick rate? Or will they be able to survive the fight?
We return our attention to the escaped Chansey. Chansey, fed up with the huge crowd that has gathered to watch the fight in the Hackmons zone, escaped in a rage. The zookeepers tried and failed to contain the angry Chansey. Chansey escaped to a nearby zone and saw a caged Kyurem-B. It was the Almost Any Ability zone. Chansey sensed that this was something powerful; it transformed into the mighty Kyurem-B with its newfound Refrigerate ability. With this destructive power in its hands and a terrifying base HP and an Eviolite, Chansey shrugged off the mighty Protean Mew and brushed aside the mighty Harvest Cresselia. As a last resort, Dragonite was summoned to stop Chansey, but with Aerilate banned, Chansey easily shrugged off unSTAB Extremespeed and KOed the mighty Dragonite.
With its destruction of AAA complete, Chansey stepped into the Middle Cup zone. Seeing other NFEs like itself, it tried to persuade them to conquer the world with it. However, it soon began to realize that it was not welcome there. After all, who the hell wants a legendary electric Dragon to interfere in a playground of middle-aged Pokekids? The Chansey there weren't even allowed to abuse powerful items like Eviolite nor have strong abilities like Imposter. Annoyed by their incompetence, Chansey immediately blasted the playground to pieces.
Chansey then set foot in the Inverse Battle zone. It was nothing like it had seen before. Why the hell were there people using Return on Ghost-types? Were they mad? Chansey decided to show them who's boss, blasting a Refrigerate-boosted Return at an oncoming Grass-type. It was shocked to find that the Grass-type didn't take much damage at all. At this point, a Staraptor came out to challenge Chansey. Feeling confident, Chansey attacked with Return. "It's not very effective..."?? wtf?? It then took a massive hit from Double-Edge; this was no ordinary fight. After a few exchanges of blows, Chansey figured out that the type charts were inverted and unleashed a powerful Dragon Claw. Staraptor had been defeated.
Fortunately, Chansey became tired out and was captured and returned to the Hackmons zone safely.

Actually, scorpdestroyer you should give Albacore the win instead. He messaged me on Showdown 3-4 times and I didn't notice until he left so that was definitely my fault. You don't have to drop out just because I missed up.

We say goodbye to more users:
- Cacturne
- AWailOfATail
- Articuno I
- quickscopenoscope -- he is being executed for not being online since the 24th of June
We currently have 6 users who still have 2 lives left!
And of course, fewer users means fewer zones! With 15 (potentially less) participants remaining, 2 more zones will be destroyed permanently by day 4.
PM me the zone you wish to move into. You can only pick from zones 1-7. When PMing, make the title: "Hunter Metagames: Zone X". Also, please make a new PM instead of reusing old ones so it's clearer for me!
if PS main isnt working, use other servers
