WORST DAY EVER.

Lincoln, MA -- exact location was the Lincoln Recreation Center. went down this summer, i kinda delayed posting this for a while because it takes some time to type up a whole warstory. i've got all the other battles recorded but this was by far the coolest.

wow i guess Gyara isnt as powerful as i thought... man i suppose there may have been luck balancing out on both sides of the EQuation. also, for those of you hoping to find local tourneys in the Boston area, this particular one was held exactly in Lincoln, MA (about 15-20 minutes out of the...

the reason i use Knock Off instead of CC on that set is because imho, Hariyama wants high defenses to stand out. the defenses drop from CC is really unfortunate for him.

We had a pretty exciting local tournament in Boston recently and i made it to the finals with a fairly standard team that im sure you guys are familiar with. Prizes at the end of this tournament included a Strategy Guide, a Pokemon Pearl cartridge, and $50 in cash money. So basically, i was in...

there should be an option for "I have kids and I HATE IT"

soo... everyone who uses Octillery "gets it to work?" :Z I wonder why he isnt Uber by now... Im gonna give a shout-out to Hypnosis + Baton Pass Mr. Mime, with Hypnosis at raised accuracy he sweeps with NO WEAK!~!! (filter) Octillery Sniper with Rock Blast has 2-5x more opportunities to...

Mime has learned Baton Pass by level up ever since GSC days... you don't think it deserves a mention in the support movepool? :Z I'm pretty sure he's the only Hypnosis + Baton Pass user (fuck you nay-sayers with your Smeargle nonsense) and a decently well suited one at that. Hypnosis + Calm...

Flareon could move up to being decent in UU because of fire fang? Probably not.

THanks for that, Zathura. Swampert is like Treecko only better with STAB Earthquake, any physical attack, and fully evolved statwise. porygon-z is far different from 'kazam.

Sniper seems to be built for rock blast (2-5 times the chance of a crit) so a physical octillery works nicely in DP. good use of trapinch and Charge Beam

mekkah, you speak the truth but for a small bit; obviously the special-physical is a gimme, but i'm liking PZ better in this case for the 10 extra base speed, could make all the difference
