[Steamroll]

I sucked using Troll Skiploom [I really thought it could take a hit then be a general troll], Sub BulkUp Gurdurr [Well, maybe if I knew you packed Sludge Bomb] and Agilty Seadra, so you don't need to worry.

 

[AyoGabos]

These seem really fun haha definitely do a mono-color one!

 

[DTC]

There will be a NU Showdown in 2 hours! Be there!

Theme: You must use 3 Pokemon of the same type.

FLCL's Ground-type team donked Zebraiken's rain team with Belly Drum Linoone by setting up on Volbeat.

 

[Full2Half]

I feel origional for using poison. Haunter / Skuntank work well together though. Also threw on an arbok for the hell of it, it didnt do anything but get critted and die though in both battles.

 

[Raseri]

Fighting also proved to be interesting and if I would have considered rain teams during team building I feel it would have gone a lot better, it was definitely a fun challenge especially since I only had eleven minutes for teambuilding. i'm glad I got home in time for that one

 

[Raseri]

I will be starting one of these at 8:30 pm Eastern time, come to #neverused to join!

Standard Rules

FLCL vs Raseri
Zebraiken vs NoLuckInvolved

Zebraiken vs FLCL

BP TOO STRONG

 

[Raseri]

Baton Pass is really solid, maybe it's time to revive Ras Pass? The turn out for the last one was a little disappointing, we need more people to participate since June is jsut around the corner!

The time has finally come. Prepare yourselves, tomorrow will mark the beginning of the first #neverused Showdown proper. Remember to join #neverused tomorrow and look out for the announcements on the tournament.

Also if I cannot make it tomorrow (as may be the case) I will need a back up host. Anyone willing to do so please contact me.

 

[Raseri]

So for the first official showdown I decided to use an easy restriction. The top 20 Pokemon on the may stats were banned.

ggs guys it was fun

 

[Raseri]

So many Musharna.

And damn I was hoping that I would be able to get a gorebyss sweep in this, you guys suck :(

 

[CrashinBoomBang]

I was hoping people would try to stall with stuff like Tangela + Lickilicky + Misdreavus + Garbodor + Regirock since both Emboar and Braviary were unavailable so I could make full use of Ursaring.

Oh well.

 

[Django]

Just so everyone knows there will be a showdown in 1.5 hours in #neverused. Don't miss it.

 

[Django]

The theme was "Only STAB Moves Allowed". This extended to all moves (support moves etc) but Rapin Spin was allowed on any Pokemon that could learn it.

The bracket is here: http://challonge.com/nu3

Points:

zeb - 1
Djangoo - 1
Keiran - 2
DTC - 4

I am as shocked as anyone that DTC won, and will strive to make sure this does not happen again.

 

[No Luck Involved]
