Any advice for how to handle the pop up ads? I literally just lost a match from timing out due to the pop ups. This is insane, certainly not the first time this has happened.

Random question for the sake of setting up to win a game on time. Is there a list of time durations for the attack animations? I know celebration is crazy long. Or does anyone know attacks off hand that are particularly long animations?

Thanks everyone for their help. I also uploaded the team to pokebank, used them in battlespot, and put them on the GTS. Just to be sure. Not the best checking method but still viable.

It's a Dialga with its hidden ability telepathy.

I'm very familiar with breeding and soft resetting. Getting in game Pokez is simple, however I have obtained some event legendaries from Korea that have special move sets. I just wanted to make sure they are good to go for a tournament. Is throwing them on GTS a good way to see? Or is there a...

That's not really checking. I have some Korean event pokemon that have special moves/abilities and I wanted to make sure they're vgc legal.

What's the best in game way to make sure my pokemon are vgc legal? Aside from Google searching.

Is there a link available for vgc 2016 showdown usage statistics?

So does anyone ever meet up with local players in their area just to hang out, trade pokez, strategize, and battle? There's just something romantic about it to me, my fondest memories that as a kid was going to borders pokemon league to trade and battle. I'm an avid vgc player so I constantly go...

That's unfortunate, I'm not one to hide behind my computer all day and enjoy socializing. Plus I thinks it's cool to actually have to put the time in to physically make the team and use it, is there at least non showdown tournaments with cartridges?

Do in person smogon tournaments happen, if so is there a thread with event information for these?

Event went much smoother than last year, I hope everyone had a good time. Congrats to bearfanz and cybertron for snagging some swag. I personally got dq'ed for move tutoring earth power to gastrodon instead of doing it from dp... Thought it'd be ok since gastro learns it in a prev gen but oh...

This will be a much smoother ran tournament then last year. I will personally make sure of this. We already have things in place and have a much better understanding of what is needed to be done. It was tough to gauge just how many people we were going to have last year since this was the first...

Congrats to Ray and his Pokemon dynasty. Well played, I say he would have won even without the crits. He just predicted better.

Well first let me introduce myself, my name is Kyle and I'm a Philly area pokemon TCG judge and tournament organizer, I'm also a former pro tcg player. I want to host a premier tournament VGC style, not just a one and done tournament but an annual event hence the east coast showdown. I know the...

Gotchya. Yeah a friend of mine all the way out in philly said that's what won the regionals there for masters and maybe juniors.

Winning team for masters seems a little gimmicky. Do you think this kind of stuff will show at us nats?

@chinesedood and luci's pride: Thanks so much guys, I'm so glad the community for pokez is so accepting and helpful. There's really not a lot of other competitive communities that are this wise and helpful. I'd ask a question like this on any other board i'd get trolled all day. So thank you...

Thank you for the input, it's funny you say that because that's exactly what my goal is to live through hp ice. In a situation like that is it better to focus on hp or spec d, chomps hp is solid but his special d is pretty bad?
