As a rusty unviable former 1v1 RO, that has never contributed past 2015, never played 1v1 and kinda sucks, I did better than expected so fuck you. S/o rays for trusting me and accepting the trade when I was kinda feeling low, was nice being with you, and tbh if it weren't for the amazing team support I got I wouldn't be where I am, you made me push myself more than I wanted and I feel like I all let you down on the most crucial week. No individual shoutouts cause yall are exceptional and p cool. Public apology for neomon since I put him dead last on my rankings pre-PL, you were great manager and would def play w/ and for u again. S/o dom, ggopw and ursas for helping me build some weeks and being great buddies.

FUCK PAZZA with his shitty oras advice.

 
PL done for Megarays, sad to see us lose in the semis but oh well, not our fault the gods didnt want to make 1v1PL great again

shoutout time;
neomon SolarflareRo for drafting me
Solar again, ayedan sagar0027 Inkreativ 187 Fan for helping in my path to my first positive 1v1 teamtour (kinda crazy)
neo, solar ink SUSTENANCE_1 and Close DEG for carrying; dont forget to take care of your backs after this
anime sans RaJ.Shoot for being awesome teammates (and the others above as well)
ayedan again for going 0-3 like we mention a lot in the discord
Arai for showing up once in a while to talk
pazza for being degs slave
@everyone who became a fan of the team before we lost to the ducking morpekos....
Kaif for helping a bit towards the end.. before the [redacted redacted redacted] morpekos
ive probably missed someone but meh
#1v1PLStillNotGreatAgain #Make1v1PLGreatAgain2021 #WaitIwentPositive?

Edit:
Forgot to shoutout Jamez155 for not knowing where Normandie/Normandy is
 

ayedan

5 am in Toronto
Well we lost so here I am thanking everyone and all that sappy shit.

I wanna start off with the man himself neomon. You are such a great guy and tried to help everyone when you could. Even though u had a bit of a losing streak at the end, you played and prepped every single week no matter the situation and I respect the fuck out of you for that. So thanks again man.

SolarflareRo If I said I didn’t think u were being a cuck 99% of the time, I would be lying lmfao. But regardless of our many arguments and “fights”, you are a pretty solid player and builder at that. Thanks for bidding on me even if I didn’t do the best, I hope I helped.

SUSTENANCE_1 MY MAN! you and I have known each other for a while now and I’m glad we finally got to team together. I’m so happy I got to build for you and you did well too which is always great :). If I capt East, you are definitely gonna be on the roster. Plus u got a fat ass.

DEG I couldn't help you much with oras but when u weren’t clowning me, we had a fun ass time. Thanks for being cool and carrying the team when it was needed LOL.

Inkreativ another guy who carried us when needed. You didn’t ask for much help but you definitely did your thing and it really helped. Amazing guy and amazing player in general. Hope we team again soon.

Close my SM brother! We built some things together but you also did your own thing. Great team builder and even if u didn’t have the best record, you are still one of the best SM players out there for sure.

THIS MACHINE you didn’t get much playing time but u were definitely the comedic relief of the team. Made my days at times and honestly a fucking funny ass dude. Hope to keep in touch man!

plant based we had lots of fun saying a certain phrase, iykyk. But from clowning each other to clowning other people, you for sure made this tour way more fun with ur spastic thoughts and stupid ideas. Love ya man

GeneralGunderson RaJ.Shoot aye gg u won a tour game without hax loool, nah I’m playing but I’m glad I got to team with both of you. Both chill asf and thank you Raj for calming me down at some points.

akaFila Arai Gareth Adamson Betathunder we all didn’t talk much with each other but maybe we can talk more at a later time. Have a good one guys.

anime sans we definitely have our differences and I know that but hopefully sooner or later we can put those to the side and have a fun ass time. Would love to get to know you better :).

Thanks everyone who also helped the team on the side, there are too many of you to list on its own but thank you again :)

Well I will be the first to admit, I’m saddened by my record of 0-3 regardless of the situations and unluckiness but I sure as hell had a fun time while doing it. I hope y’all had the same amount of fun as I did even with some stupid moments and other hilarious ones. Thanks again for drafting me and I hope to play with you guys again.
 

rumia

i like to play and draw

hah, i guess thats it huh?

well first things first i wanna give a HUGE shoutout to aerify that cheered me on thru thick and thin and made my experience extraordinary, i love u so so much <3

huge thanks to SolarflareRo and neomon for drafting me and making this whole experience possible, and for the stellar support they provided, i couldntve asked for better managers :)

of course shoutouts to the friends i made/got closer with thru this tour, anime sans Tack :] pazza (FREE MY MANS) and THIS MACHINE, u guys really made this tour very enjoyable as well

a special shoutout to my boys ayedan ((especially u man, ur teams r actually too fire)) Lkjc ggopw Close pqs AltCauseImInsecure for providing with AMAZING teams that honestly made my sun and moon run so perfect, u guys r the true goats for my unstoppable sun and moon run

and the rest of my team for legit taking us all the way to semis, yall better stay GOATED

i truly am glad i could experience this, its been way too much fun and im glad i can finally be taken more seriously as a player because of this, ill never underestimate the power of TEAMWORK and ALLAH

until next time, ill be off, thanks for the memories

 
ok the goal here is to not hit the word limit

starting off, someone asked me for shits and giggles if I wanted to manage, kaif or solar I think and i was pretty pumped but hardly expecting to get a team. thought my best odds were with power cause he had the megarays last pl, but once i realized he was gonna come online once every 2 and a half weeks that seemed unviable. solar and close were the 2 guys I was certain I would buy and Solar was annoying me all the time to manage with him anyway so I asked freddy if i can change the co. while it wasnt very appreciated at first i vouched for him not to do stupid shit and well, here we are now, dropped out in semis tiebreaker after we went on, what i think, a very impressive 5 week rampage.

we really shouldve made like a more in depth draft plan before hand cause we were, as most of you saw, left with a lot of money at the end when we could have just kept bidding on maybe one or 2 players that we planned to get initially. thankfully it turned out fine all the 'ass' players either showed what they can do (sans, gg, raj and aidan too even though they shit the bed 3 times each). first 2 weeks were tough, week one we just didnt put enough effort in and i was really not good enough to support 3 swsh slots at that point, i think we all didnt really feel the pressure yet at that point and it all kinda sorta just ended up in us being essentially crushed by a team that we thought was worse than us at first. week 2 was a lot a lot better, my swsh teams started to look at least usable, i came up with my own ideas, the team started to bond, overall just a much nicer atmosphere. on the side i tried to ship of our ''useless'' players for 'better' ones (throwback me offering 5 players for a kaif or deg trade). but we played the team we thought were the best in the tour, we fucked around with the swsh slots, solar lost, not very good circumstances. 0-2-0 by week 2 SUCKS let me tell you. there were a few things we had to work out at that point, sm was 0-4, swsh bo5 was 0-4 too. so solar swsh I guess, but who do we put in bw....

Bildschirmfoto 2020-04-12 um 15.40.36.png


yea bad idea.

we decided to roll with the sm slots from week 1 again cause i had very much faith in close (which paid off later in the season as we saw) and well ayedan in SM didnt work either WHO WOULDVE THOUGHT. lord and saviour WASHED UP EATER GENGAR stepped up to clutch the fuck out of that week.

vs gogoats was well, the week felt free cause the team was ass but devestation hit the team when we lost the monopoke slot.. gunderson was truly fed up with himself, we didnt know if we could possibly bounce back..
determined to give my mans THICCSTENCANCE_1 another shot we put him in SM and suddenly he became allah himself beating up people that we expected him to get 3-0d by

Bildschirmfoto 2020-04-14 um 19.39.26.png


that week we also subbed in ayedan into swsh cause he wanted to play but to noones suprise ayedan choked the 8-0 away.
anyway this is getting too long and ive talked shit about ayedan enough, w6 and 7 felt fairly routine, w7 skewdas didnt give a shit so we pulled a win by recycling in every slot. for us it just was important that we didnt get dragas in semis so as long as we didnt lose it was ok.

woohoo playoffs ultrafire bla bla, week starts badly, i got smashed cause i didnt have the balls to lose to snorlax, deg lost his first series u name it. i got to sleep wake up and BOP SUST WON AGAIN AND NFE MAIN ANIME SANS SMASHED CANTIUS i dont remember being this hype about anything since that pl since like my first win. pressure was on raj, tough for him since he didnt win a series yet and i wasnt exactly happy with the teams i made but still sent him in there fully confident he could win but boat just picked better and his teams were better so what can u do. so i send in tb line up go to sleep and well, there i wake up seeing that SUSSY WON AGAIN WHAT THE FUCK BRO I LOVE YOU but solar got spanked so i got really mad that now i have to win or we're out, i was shitting it all week even though i tried to play it down and told the team i was fine i honestly wasnt, if i wasnt the manager i mightve cared less but i just put on too much stress onto myself, i played 50 bw matches before the stable series and felt really good but then once i hit the chall button i had a feeling i was gonna lose. on that note ggs to morpekos your teams cancer and a bunch of criers and i dont really understand how u can whine so much about getting lucked but then when you luck you suddenly have the urge to flex with it? i still respect you guys for winning but i can definetly see attitude issues here that need to be taken care of, especially after picking SM of all tiers to tiebreak in even though you got smashed 3 times and robbed the 4th in more than one game, and well guess what the tiebreak tier was that u guys lost in LMAO

thanks guys for putting in so much work this season u deserved to win this thing but you can't win them all can you. thanks solar for putting up with this with me i dont think the team wouldve worked without you. we overperformed to everyones expectations if you ask me and even though im dissapointed im still happy with the outcome
also thanks dogknees kaif alice kj pa even 0-5qs dude y'all were nice to have around for semis and were more help than you think you were.

also mods I'd maybe consider editing that

Banned deucer.
As we head into the finals of PL, I just want to reflect on some of the greatest moments of this season, highlighting the most skillful team in every PL ever in my trademarked:
Morpeko Momentstm
Where we will test the theory that the morpekos are one of the unluckiest teams and every hax in their favor is deserved. I won’t be covering semifinals because those replay stats aren’t out yet.

In week one, we have our first ever Morpeko Momenttm in the match between TSC and 5luke.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen81v1-477354
5luke gets double flinched by Jirachi and even though the match would have gone to TSC in the later games, the morpekos will remember that (as justification for any time they hax anyone else in the tour).

Morpeko Moment #2 happens in TDA vs ggopw.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen71v1-1068076482-vgjxgrlcj1oamgl6yzb6vdw3irtkvpkpw

TDA gets crit by ggopw’s heatran and even though it was unlikely for lele to hit the next focus blast, it was still hax apparently. (Also TDA crit ggopw’s melo and dodged a will o wisp from sableye)

Morpeko Moment #3. Whaleeeee vs Raining Inside
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen61v1-1067577949
Whale crits Raining’s Empoleon.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen61v1-1067584723
But don’t worry! Raining crits Whale’s Clefable in the completely same scenario where there wasn’t more room for a crit or anything.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen61v1-1067590215
Oh but what’s this? Another crit! Whale crits Raining’s azu to close out the match. Ggs everyone, skillful series.

Week 2: Another week, more morpeko moments

Morpeko Moment #4 Felucia vs Cantius
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen81v1-1071283066-53m1nxigwmfzr547quwdl81down1d1cpw
Felucia dodges a hydro pump from Jocus’s hydreigon, and even though Jocus still wins the series, the morpekos got completely haxed there.

BREAKING NEWS
We interrupt your regularly scheduled morpeko moments for this highlight match of:
Maxy1991991 VS Making good decisions
WHO WILL WIN????
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen81v1-1070399935
Uh oh it looks like maxy won this one. Now let’s give him a warning and move on with our lives...
Wait... what’s this? I’m getting information that the morpekos are actually getting REWARDED for one of their players speculating and now they get to choose any new player they want AND they get to keep maxy! Just an incredible decision by the tour hosts and this just reflects wonderfully on the 1v1 tour scene as a whole. Great job everyone.

Now back to your regularly scheduled morpeko moments

Morpeko Moment #5 Downcoming3 vs James155
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen71v1-1069886585
DC3 flinches James’ skarmory and it looks like it’s all over... but then James skillfully dodges the blast burn and reveals that the flinch didn’t matter at all! Wow James really got haxed on this one.

Morpeko Moment #6 Whaleeeee vs Jirachirella
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen61v1-1070471579
I mean, I’m not even surprised that whale crit someone anymore.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen61v1-1070474825
Whale gets crit, but like, Jirachirella had every earthquake + every waterfall to crit so...

Morpeko Moment #7 Stable “Double enduring was the play” prince569 vs KaifPlays
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen51v1-1070144782-xc5v8ovxgf0a96w4aiwuae65s6fyavbpw
Stable gets crit here, so sad. He probably wouldn’t have gotten 3-0ed by solar if he didn’t get crit here.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen51v1-1070147289-yftpbpkp069zm5boxp40chzsmm7dy2kpw
Stable gets crit again :o, completely mattered with scald burn chance too.

Morpeko Moment #8 Dj Breloominati vs xJoelith
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen41v1-1070730415-0f2ukgu25uuj9qbhoad9p797ip956pgpw
Stable says “We tank those” but I think he forgot that poison and close combat have detrimental effects.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen41v1-1070734208-z2wna8622125q4uufdrrl3geoodlhhypw
And spitfire gets the spdef drop so he doesn’t have to risk a seed flare miss.

Week 3: Electric Beegalee

Morpeko Moment #9 Zioziotrip vs Djokra
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen81v1-1075208554-mq14jxncgpkf6fv9gb83nr96xkzmju0pw
Zio flinches Djok’s Excadrill beating aegislash but it doesn’t matter because apparently you can just say “I was chople exca” and that means you actually were. Let’s look at this closer. If zio was chople, he had no room for a choice band and that means it was a roll to kill aegislash (252+ Atk Mold Breaker Excadrill Earthquake vs. 252 HP / 20 Def Aegislash-Shield: 270-320 (83.3 - 98.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO) Oh shit.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen81v1-1075213069-zxtmbqwl9rxo662bgezax1ru4po2znbpw
Well well well, Djokra misses a Rock Wrecker that didn’t matter so it’s ok. (+6 0 Atk burned Rhyperior Rock Wrecker vs. 252 HP / 252 Def (no typing) Arcanine: 392-462 (102 - 120.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO) Wait. Shit.

Morpeko Moment #10 dogknees vs Cantius
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen81v1-479226
Godknees dodges an iron tail. Was he babri? Probably. But we don’t want to acknowledge that.

Morpeko Moment #11 James155 vs martha
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen71v1-478989
James freezes Martha’s prima, but then misses two meteor mashes and Martha doesn’t thaw so it’s ok.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen71v1-479009
James gets a skillful crit and closes out the series 3-0.

Morpeko Moment #12 Whaleeeee vs Robyn
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen61v1-1074334208
If there is a chance for whale to crit, he’s gonna take it.

Morpeko Moment #13 stable “Let me just snarl here” prince569 vs ima
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen51v1-478625
Stable snarls and chokes. Oh yeah there was a crit there too.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen51v1-478626
Stable pulls a kaif and crits the scald. Unfortunately he isn’t able to get the burn as well.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen51v1-478627
Stable dodges sleep powder.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen51v1-478628
Stable crits.

Morpeko Moment #14 Dj Breloominati vs Jordy

This is the end of your regularly scheduled Morpeko Momentstm We hope that you tune in to finals to watch some more fun times with everyone’s favorite team: the Mighty Morphin’ Morpekos!

And just remember everyone:
James155: deserved ngl
 
As we head into the finals of PL, I just want to reflect on some of the greatest moments of this season, highlighting the most skillful team in every PL ever in my trademarked:
Morpeko Momentstm
Where we will test the theory that the morpekos are one of the unluckiest teams and every hax in their favor is deserved. I won’t be covering semifinals because those replay stats aren’t out yet.

In week one, we have our first ever Morpeko Momenttm in the match between TSC and 5luke.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen81v1-477354
5luke gets double flinched by Jirachi and even though the match would have gone to TSC in the later games, the morpekos will remember that (as justification for any time they hax anyone else in the tour).

Morpeko Moment #2 happens in TDA vs ggopw.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen71v1-1068076482-vgjxgrlcj1oamgl6yzb6vdw3irtkvpkpw

TDA gets crit by ggopw’s heatran and even though it was unlikely for lele to hit the next focus blast, it was still hax apparently. (Also TDA crit ggopw’s melo and dodged a will o wisp from sableye)

Morpeko Moment #3. Whaleeeee vs Raining Inside
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen61v1-1067577949

https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen61v1-1067584723

https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen61v1-1067590215
Oh but what’s this? Another crit! Whale crits Raining’s azu to close out the match. Ggs everyone, skillful series.

Week 2: Another week, more morpeko moments

Morpeko Moment #4 Felucia vs Cantius

Felucia dodges a hydro pump from Jocus’s hydreigon, and even though Jocus still wins the series, the morpekos got completely haxed there.

BREAKING NEWS
We interrupt your regularly scheduled morpeko moments for this highlight match of:
Maxy1991991 VS Making good decisions
WHO WILL WIN????
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen81v1-1070399935
Uh oh it looks like maxy won this one. Now let’s give him a warning and move on with our lives...
Wait... what’s this? I’m getting information that the morpekos are actually getting REWARDED for one of their players speculating and now they get to choose any new player they want AND they get to keep maxy! Just an incredible decision by the tour hosts and this just reflects wonderfully on the 1v1 tour scene as a whole. Great job everyone.

Now back to your regularly scheduled morpeko moments

Zio flinches Djok’s Excadrill beating aegislash but it doesn’t matter because apparently you can just say “I was chople exca” and that means you actually were. Let’s look at this closer.
