Well, the D.S. has a digital clock built-in. So when you set the time you want, give yourself at least like 1 minute to turn off/on the D.S., then as soon as it hits the intended time, start the game.

And alright either tommorow or Friday night will be good.

So what do you think about my war story?

The RMB sprite is OK. I think it is recognizable and that is what counts. Plus I really think we need to link all the related groups, RMB, triple battlers, single battlers, trick room. They all have a lot of similar memebers and I think if we help each other out, we can do more. So I think we need and OK sprite vs a cool one that might offend someone.

You're going to smash pass to Drifblim? You going with DW flare boost or unburden (which would probably be speed overkill)
One intersting thing about using Heatran o my team is that a lot of people try to hit Volbeat with a fire type move, boosting my special attack even more.

So you noticed my fifty million posts today? I did almost all of it on my lunch hour, now that I am not crazy busy.
I don't think I am going to make all my teams trick room teams. But it was interesting, my initial idea was to pass tail glow to my choice scarf Togekiss and I may do that some still. I did that for about three battles and won a lot. but then I accidentally put Heatran as the fourth poke and it just worked out really well.

Hey, the chortler. Just saying that the her agency is currently trying to revive itself and as you were some of most active members previously it'd be great if you could come back again.

What game version are you using? And time usually needs to be spot on when you start it.

Can you get on irc or PO on thursday or so? It will be easier to help you out that way.

I hear ya, I barely made it to him without any legend options until 42-49 and that was both in the 47-48 battles(i had legends used against me before that but in the last battles of 7.) god i barely won in a short but probably the most insane battle Ive ever had.

2nd round. you beat him?

Damn thorton, the wrong pokes, at the wrong time.

ok. thanks. but it might be better to give it to me tommorrow dpending on the time.

Should we keep our GBU weekly challenge team and strategies to ourselves? I have a fun war story I want to share and I don't really care if I win the challenge.

oh wow, that was unexpected (its actually easier to do something on a previous game). Also it's all generations this year! ITs AN ALL OUT WAR THIS TIME!!! But only pokemon that are allowed in the subway are allowed,(i.e. no ubers) But seriously, when you build a team for the vgc's keep in mind a few VERY IMPOTANT things:
1. Pokemon with protect on them=every goddamn one
2. Note: watch out for insane straategies like hitmontop + zapdos. In fact, watch out for zapdos latios and terrakion.

MOST IMPORTANTLY:
WATCH. OUT. FOR. RAIN.
(and every other weather)
seriously, people have politoed swft swim kingdra ludico, scizor, rotom and everything else. Cybertron i knw used abomasnow team. Try to make a weather yourself or try to have many counters. If you need help i give advice, I'm working on an anti-metagame article.

This guide helped me learn the basics: http://www.skarmbliss.com/doublebattles.php?id=3

If you still need help, I guess I can lend a hand tommorow or so. :)

ok sure. Also one is in Philidelphia on april 15th which is the 2nd regionals, and then one is in indianopolis thats nationals which is non-invte this year. i forget the date but its on pokemon.online and smogon.

oh, ok. u planning on going to vgc's now?

I only wanted to play singles because I thought you like them. I mostly like triples and rotation. No hard feelings, but I hate endeavour Aron. I usually DC on them in GBU. I hope that you are not too disappointed to hear I DC. I don't DC very often, ion the rated I have not kept track, but I probably get disconnected on at least nine times to my one, and maybe double that. I try to disconnect up front if I there is something I don't want to battle against, but a lot of people wait till they lose to DC. I don't like that, but I guess I understand that in the ratings mode. I would rather be DCd up front. Iwould say it is about 80% at defeat, 15% in team preview, and 5% when they see trick room in triples or something they don't like, for example DD on Dragonite or shell smash on cloyster and they don't have priority.
I know this is cruel, but I tried a destiny bond and wobbuffet combo in doubles and I got a lot of DCs and I probably deserved it.

Sure! im there now!

yeah okay w/e. Btw, why do you want lileep with storm drain? they lose iga drain AND stealth rock(is it egg move idk) and get switch by skarmory after 3 stockpiles in singles.

Can we use legit pokesav pokemon? That's pretty much all I have.

no trust me its weather, too many things get boosts like sand rush, storm drain, or even moves that terrawhim almost has no meaning. also there are pokemon like itmontop or latios with scarf who just outrun and kill or priority kill it. hitmontop can even wide gaurd to stop it from rock sliding.

On the challenge of the week a few questions:
Does it have to be singel, or can we do triples or doubles?
Do we have to use BP each battle or just use one pokemon with BP as an option?

I guess. But nbod is using it on Po, there must be an explanation. my guess was that rain or weather teams are defeating it or proving better than it, as i always see weather teams nowdays. Also pokemon like excadrill or latios out run and OhKo terrakion followed shortly by whimsicott, who for tailwind is usually replaced by tornadus.

OK, I will go in the wifi club and wati for you, right?

it still doesnt help stop scizor bullet punch.
