Hey Felolo I am actually Kippsmithers. I am sorry to tell you this but I have sold the pokemon you gave me since I didn't think you were coming back on urgent matters. Since we were good friends I'll explain to you why I sold them and why I am currently unable to pay you back. My real name is Nigerian Prince Alyussi Islassis but you probably know me best as Kippsmithers. I am the cousin of Nigerian Astronaut, Air Force Major Abacha Tunde. He was the first African in space when he made a secret flight to the Salyut 6 space station in 1979. He was on a later Soviet spaceflight, Soyuz T-16Z to the secret Soviet military space station Salyut 8T in 1989. He was stranded there in 1990 when the Soviet Union was dissolved. His other Soviet crew members returned to earth on the Soyuz T-16Z, but his place was taken up by return cargo. There have been occasional Progrez supply flights to keep him going since that time. He is in good humor, but wants to come home. In the years since he has been on the station, he has accumulated flight pay and interest amounting to almost 100 Million Pokeyen. This is held in a trust at the Lagos National Savings and Trust Association. If we can obtain access to this money, we can place a down payment with the PokeMMO Devs for a Soyuz return flight to bring him back to Earth. I am told this will cost 15 Million Pokeyen. In order to access the his trust fund we need your assistance. Consequently, my colleagues and I are willing to transfer the total amount to your account or subsequent disbursement, since we as civil servants are prohibited by the Code of Conduct Bureau (Civil Service Laws) from opening and/ or operating foreign accounts in our names. To this me and my colleagues would need access to your PokeMMO account information. Needless to say, the trust reposed on you at this juncture is enormous. In return, we have agreed to offer you 20 percent of the transferred sum, while 10 percent shall be set aside for incidental expenses (internal and external) between the parties in the course of the transaction. You will be mandated to remit the balance 70 percent to other accounts in due course.

oh yeah i know that guy, he plays on an account called Torinnnnn now

I will announce the Tier list changes of February in this thread. These changes are made according to the Usage gathered from 11th January - 5th February. The tables can be seen here: (The cut-off point is 4.36%). A list of this months Tier Changes: Moving up from Never-Used to Under-Used (NU to UU): Misdreavus: Misdreavus has reached a usage percentage of 5.08%, putting it in the Under-Used tier. Sharpedo: Sharpedos usage was 4.99% for this month, therefore its moving up to Under-used tier. Moving down from Under-Used to Never-Used (UU to NU): Aggron: With a usage of 4.06%, Aggron will move to Never-used tier. Ninetails: 3.98% usage for this month, moved to Never-used tier. Pikachu: Pikachus usage was just below cut off point for this month, being 4.31% usage percentage. Tier council is aware that Pikachu may be problematic but can't know for sure until its tested. Because its power hasn’t been seen in Never-used. Additionally: [OU] Discussion: Chansey: Has increased in usage by 3% to 53%. Council finds it to still be centralizing, but nothing will be done at this moment.

Story time So today I went to the doctor to remove my stitches. Everything was going well, hurt a bit but that's to be expected. Anyway at the last stitch the nurse decided it'd be smart to pull on the wrong side. Basically meaning she pulled the knot of the stitch into my skin, and she couldn't reach it anymore. So we were both like errrr well this sucks. So then she just decides to go full on savage and pull on the wrong side anyway. So I had the knot of the stitch ran through my skin and my god did that hurt. Anyway afterwards I found a 5 euro bill so that was nice.

Hi. I casually enter in these so called official tourneys, and everytime I do it, I feel like there is a change that should be done. In my opinion, the fact you know what your opponent will be and even scout his team beforehand seems to cause some unhealthy pressure while teambuilding. First of all, it reduces drastically chances newer players have to win (same team= ez scout= counter team= unfair disadvantage) Second, ppl tend to use their plays based on what they seen on previous matches of the opponent. This creates a mindset I dont consider healthy at all. This somehow removes that fun of trying to guess the set the opponent is using. Granted you can play around by using same comps with different sets, but I see this as another restraint to teambuilding. What if the player doesnt like a second set compared to the first one already used? What if the player doesnt have comps of the same pokemon with different sets (Its a grinding game, so I know it can get boring to breed a pokemon you already have) All in all I just want to promote fairness between all types of players. So, I was thinking if you could somehow shuffle the bracket every round to disallow all stuff mentioned above.

ye cuz lyle are op rest of player getting coached by frags.. damn frag bro stop coaching xdddd

lmfao a doctor that cant tell gender

PP Max that can be purchased with BP. These little nuggets are expensive and hard to come by, but if we could get them with BP, our lives would be made a lot easier.

Havent played my 200 practice games with the new team yet

If a player has worked so hard to build such a solid creative team, then it shouldn't be easily prone to being beaten by just counterteaming. How is knowing what a person likes to use and then exploiting a gap in his team = non creative? It's what actually gives rise to new sets and that's how the idea of a lure even originates. Even in sports I'm sure that most managers don't go into every game with the same tactic when facing different opponents. They probs review the game film of their opponent and then decide to attack the weak points and accordingly strategize. It definitely gives you a sense of accomplishment when you win with the same team consecutively, but that varies from person to person. Another person's sense of accomplishment would be to just win and not about how they win. You're right about this para, but I still don't see why shuffling the bracket is a good idea.

The irony xddddd.

why did you call me a kid when you and your mates always crying when you lose vs aw's members?

Me and @Predakiller should have been playing at 11pm gmt. I have to go to bed now cause i work tomorrow. I understand he might be affraid but moreover i hope nothing bad happened to him. We'll reschedule later.

@Toast

me vs mihawk soon

252+ Atk Choice Band Golem Fire Punch vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Meganium: 96-114 (51.3 - 60.9%) -- 94.9% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery If the tiering bases on having safe switches for everything you're obviously end up seeing 6 wall teams because if every offensive threat needs to be reliably switched against that is the unavoidable outcome. There are no reliable counters to Ursaring or Zangoose in OU but they're not used a lot because their overall utility just isn't as good as something like Flygon, even though it is hard countered by multiple Pokemon. A Pokemon like Flygon works against fast and defensive Pokemon while Ursaring in OU is highly limited to just breaking walls. Rhydon would be the same way in UU, it's just dead weight in a offensive battle and compared to Golem is that Golem is guaranteed to get at least one strong hit off in a offensive battle - Rhydon none.

misd and sharpedo, but for the rest of this week, you play with the tiers as they were before the tier changes for this month

kev vs me at 9pm GMT

Substitution: @SidClassic is unable to complete his match this week and will be subbed out of the line-up in exchange for @TheBloo Considering TheBloo has one win in NU and LifeStyle has zero wins, TheBloo will be advanced to NU1 The new match-ups between The Outraging Lions and The Spartan Warriors will be as follows: NU1: @TheBloo vs @Gazelli NU2: @LifeStyle vs @xStarr Please schedule your matches accordingly.

It would be a good idea to mail the guy holding your comps ingame, letting him know you want them back (if you havent already). Also a reminder, that that staff do not moderate trades or get involved with trade disputes. Please ensure that you remain vigilant at all times when trading with other players in the future. Keeping your comps after quiting is always the best thing to do, as mentioned above, in case you return to the game sometime later on. Closing this.

Wow, so much thrashtalk. Anyway, the shuffling bracket was just an idea. Anything that wouldn´t allow people to scout previous matches so easily could do. Since shuffling would make tours needlessly longer, any other suggestions are welcomed. I can´t see any harm with hidden opponents until the right time, as stated by @OrangeManiac I have played vgc in gen6 games, and the box locked thing isnt too bad either (Even though you are almost guaranteed to not know the guy you face against anyway) One can just not deny most games start at the end of the 10 minute mark of the next round. People scout and most of the times, teambuild according to what they have seen - not healthy at all. Now: Wrong, and wrong. Since u know exactly who you are going against, I cant see why scout isnt viable at the start of tour. Second, newbies know nothing about their opponents but you also know nothing about them. If they cant afford several teams yet, knowing opponents or not will not change a thing, the opponent, however, can just counterteam somewhat effectively (And yeah, I have seen this countless times) Also, checking playstyles and sets is completely different. Sets/pokemon allows you to build accordingly to theur best sweeper/wall, etc, etc. Styles, while you cant, its much more vague. Take my example, Im an offensive mindset player. Given that you cant counter team as effectively as if you saw my games and my favorite comps/sets, bla bla. Also, if you consider a play style to be checked and countered, this is wrong at so many levels. Good prepared teams should be able to manage most situations, so you cant really counter them just by knowing its style. Also: Yes, I do give a fuck about poor. I dont really care about officials that much (only entered 4 in this year) and yet, I got two final wins (One was a cc but who cares) If you watch all my games, you won´t see more than a bunch of the same comps and yet they are effective, and since Im the one who brought this, I guess its kinda stupid of you to come with that excuse. (Just to be clear. NO! I dont really care about scouts at all, since u cant scout me at all. Just the mentality behind that) What I just dont like is the mentality behind teambuilding because it´s pretty much obvious everything you see beforehand haves a great impact on how you teambuild, while it shouldnt( You should teambuild to maximize your chances to win every time, not to maximize your chances to win against x player) On another note, I´m in this competitive scenario(of pokemmo) perhaps for much less of what you have been, so I know how hard was for me some months ago to get some really good spot in these stuff. Moreover, I have/had some new friends in this game that when I come/came with: "Join me in the official" they are like: "Oh, no, it´s not worth, still need more comps" For the shuffling, I agree there are flaws, but thats why this discussion is for.

I agree that counterteaming happens a bit moret than it should and big teams can be oppressive to newer players. Aside from bracket shuffle each round which is not a bad idea, a battle box locked for the entire competition (just like in official VGC events) could also be the answer. This makes player focuses on a team that beats the meta instead of targeting individual players.

XPLOZ when we gonna battle?

Friday me vs tor 3m on the line. (Owes me 100k and the 500k once Vale wins) We're both est so anytime during 3pm+ we can fight. Bo3 NU match. ed: Y'all can bet if you want.

So I was giving moves for my shiny smeargle in Pokemon X and I was like "maybe I should go to artisan cave to hunt shiny smeargle". 10 minutes later Thanks to @WestTurtle for being my lucky charm haha :D

kevola v linken in 10 min

nah, not until next week, since matches have already taken place/happened in the middle of the week

Story time: I got kickED OUT of schOOl!!1 (Fire drill)

I figure tier changes don't apply for this week then?

Playing xVolvagiax tomorrow about the time of this post.

In order for the bracket to be "shuffled", I think a round needs to finish before another one starts and I think this would unnecesaarily increase the duration of the tournament. I'd prefer that your opponent would remain hidden until the match starts. I suppose you could somewhat guess your opponent based on the 10 minute set up time activating and matches ending but especially on the first 3 rounds you cannot be really sure who you're facing next round if your opponent remains hidden. I think the problem is that the automated tournament is programmed to work like a simple bracket and programming to randomize the opponent for every round would be the first step in order to able to have the feature of not being able to see your next round's opponent becoming handy. Let's be honest, this would be a lot of work and would only really come in handy in the first rounds of the tournament unless every round has to finish before a next round can start so as much as I hate scouting being so easy in this game, I think it's an inevitability.

plz. My shiny exe official was won with literally 8 comps through every round. (Yesterday´s cc same thing) That assumption of yours just prove how hard it is to currently see new players winning something, and I dont think it should be like that. Having few comps is already a disadvantage for them. Being able to scout beforehand is even more of a disadvantage, thats all I was to reach.

I quote myself in a Tyrion Lannister style to confirm Preda got scared but he's safe and sound snd we'll be facing each other today or tomorrow around 9pm gmt.

newbie mistake, don't give your stuff when you quit, simple.

Mistakes were made. Also swagger > choice spec > growth (leftover) > growth (life orb) > wishlol

Pretty big difference from when it was banned before. A) I'm not entirely convinced it was banworthy when it was banned in the past since steelix was quite viable at the time, along with haunter, misdreavus, and shuckle too. B ) There wasn't choice specs/life orb, which make miltank's life a lot more difficult. Choice specs makes it possible for manectric/exeggutor/jynx/lapras/etc to 2hko miltank straight up, which means the curse set has a lot more trouble accomplishing much. The issue of fire punch or heal bell is another reason why curse miltank isn't necessarily a problem. Toxic is very common in UU as of now (not necessarily a good thing), so miltank is pretty much required to run heal bell or rest, but scizor is also the #1 used pokemon, which deals with the mono attacking miltank sets with swords dance+superpower. You could run rest+fire punch, but back to special attackers being able to 2hko miltank. Personally, I'm not entirely happy with how UU looks right now, but I'm not sure if miltank is the main culprit. I think it's a bit more complicated than one pokemon itself being the issue. Altaria, scizor, slowking, exeggutor, and even something like tentacruel could have fingers pointed at them, for why defensive teams have so much usage in UU. The core of altaria+scizor requires pokemon to run somewhat ridiculous coverage to try and cover both of them, as there are very few pokemon who can run fire+ice moves, and those who can, might have other issues such as being walled by tentacruel/slowking, who resist both of those types. Exeggutor is a problem on the other side of the spectrum, being a huge offensive threat with very minimal switch ins, due to pretty much everything being prone to either giga drain, psychic, hp fire, or toxic, and it's easier to deal with exeggutor by switching around altaria/miltank or cradily, and trying to get sneasel/absol in vs exeggutor safely.

Walpa vs Schuchty in 10 Schuchty win

Not sure what you were expecting, but I can confirm it being the best ttar counter on the server
