As of today I officially quit pokemon showdown and smogon forums forever. I will still be active on discord but that's it. No more mons for me, I will not go into the details but to sum it up I'll just say that I play this game way too much and I will not allow it to become an addiction. You can laugh at me if you want or whatever, some of you will miss me and some of you won't. I would make a goodbye thread but it's not necessary. If any of you want paste bins of my teams or replays from some of my insane ladder runs that people may not know about you can message me on discord. However, after this message has been posted I will not make another post on these forums ever again, and I will never return, even for gen 8. I will also say that a lot of the teams I've posted such as the ones in the AG bazaar are worse versions of the actual versions of those teams in my builder. Anyway my friends and frenemies, goodbye.
Some shoutouts:
Fluffie Mareep - you are one of the coolest users on here and I hope you get unbanned
Chloe - You are ok but you should value the opinions of others. I always acted like a living meme in pms with you and I apologize for that.
General AG mods - you are generally a cool group of people but some of you need to loosen up, sorry
Skarph - you're one of the best ladder players in AG, possibly the best of them all, although a lot of people would disagree with me on that
Silent Mobius - I think you were one of my favorite users on this site, battling you on ladder back in early gen 7 was always fun
Lance - sorry that I'm giving a shout out to Lance everyone, but sir props to you for having one of the most successful ladder runs in showdown history
Unicorn(s) - You were one of the nicest people I've met on here, along with mc
Zarel - I wanted to give you a legitimate way to replace the rating system on showdown, and no not the one that I gave you before. Props to you for replying as much as you did to that train wreck of a thread I made on that topic so long ago. I will say this though, you should do some research on elo performance ratings and rating padding. If you're interested enough which I doubt you are find me on discord and I'll give you the whole scoop.
Some random people who I found to be cool: Purple Gatorade, Flowre, The OG whirlofdestruction, ADF Test (GOAT Test), Fardin aka FartinAG, Azuriru, F6tornado (might be same person as silent mobius but idk), levanos, p0lt, cromagnet, Zesty, Edgar Allan Poem
If I forgot to give you a shout out I'm sorry, but I think that I have written enough. Goodbye pokemon showdown and goodbye smogon forums, you will be missed but now I have new adventures that await my efforts.
