Can it be 1v1 Metronome Togepi for every round instead?

Sejuani stomped him with that DDoS. OP.

GO MKNS!

Seeing as the match hasn't been played yet and I have inside info that Levi is gonna be coached by his manager, I'm cancelling this bet. sorry.

Intimidate spam in VGC was real. I don't think we should nerf Intimidate like that in our meta tbh.

Even after getting 1st rounded we're #1. Flexxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Who won game 1

Yes

Off the top of my head, this buff can make Excadrill busted, especially when it eventually gets access to Mold Breaker. Forretress pretty much can no longer run Gyro Ball alongside Spin, which is a move it usually enjoys having. In lower tiers Armaldo and Hitmonchan could become slighty annoying. Just not a fan about the +1 speed in general, Spin is already good without that effect and now this could likely force people to run ghosts more often. Adding Nasty Plot on Gengar/Hydreigon would also be ridiculous...

Still have these left.

Fine, I guess I'll start then. Oh Durant, my sweet busted Durant. Did you guys know that ants can carry 10-50 times their body weight? And if they're made of steel, they can hit 10-50 times harder than a Landorus-Therian! Ok, now that we got that cringey joke out of the way... Tier: NU* This little ant has been terrorizing NU for the past couple months. Unsurprisingly, nobody has really bothered making a case for its ban, seeing as it's easier abusing it in this MMO environment (what a shocker, I know). Thankfully I don't play much anymore and just spectate from the sidelines, (this is what being in TC must feel like), so I get to be completely unbiased! So why is this worth a ban? Enormous Versatility and Coverage - Durant is one of NU's top offensive threats right now, with 109 base Attack and Speed and a great Bug/Steel typing, capable of performing different roles in a team, from wallbreaking to revenge killing to outright sweeping. This thing can run a banded set, scarf set, hone claws set, agility set, you name it. It has access to great STAB moves in Iron Head (30% flinch chance) and X-Scissor as well as a variety of other moves like Rock Slide/Stone Edge, Thunder Fang, Crunch and Superpower. Sure it can't run all these moves, but it doesn't need to either. Iron Head is a must, so is Superpower and the 4th move if running Hone Claws/Agility can be X-Scissor/Stone Edge. Hustle - "This Pokemon's Attack is multiplied by 1.5 and the accuracy of its physical attacks is multiplied by 0.8." As if 109 base attack wasn't enough, you trade a little bit of accuracy for even more power. The best part? Hone Claws fixes the drawback that Hustle carries and gives you even more power! Is it hard to setup? Nope! Durant forces so many switches that it is usually pretty easy setting up Hone Claws. Or your opponent just sacks whatever is on the field in fear of a setup and gets murdered by one of Durant's moves instead. Usage - "But Life, the latest usage shows Durant at 17,49%. No way that can be problematic." Well perhaps, but let's look at its usage evolution. June 2019 - 9.13% July 2019 - 9.17% August 2019 - 8.00% September 2019 - 11.08% October 2019 - 7.96% November 2019 - 13.38% December 2019 - 17.49% In 6 months, it's usage almost doubled. And in my opinion, it can only go up from here. People realized what a menace Durant is and are slowly starting to abuse it. Limits teambuilding - Honestly, don't even bother playing defensive teams when things like this are running around freely. Durant has ZERO reliable defensive answers, literally name me one and I'll tell you why it's trash. The way to play against this thing is offensively. Sadly it comes down to packing a scarfer that can revenge kill it or just something above 109 speed (there's not a lot of these). Stuff like Relaxed HP Fire Poliwrath and Impish Emboar are at best shaky checks, but both lack good recovery and need to stay healthy the entire time, or else Durant eats them with a CB/+1 orb Superpower. Offensive answers include HP Fire Espeon/Sceptile, Choice Scarf Charizard/Emboar/Houndoom/Braviary/etc, sadly none of them can switch in vs Durant, so unless you run all of these in a team (lol), there's a very high chance that Durant will claim a bunch of lives for itself. I usually like to compare our MMO's NU meta to Smogon's BW RU meta, with some obvious mechanic changes but none of them really matter when comparing the impact of Durant in both. Now think for a second, Durant is S rank in a meta that has Moltres, Magneton, Intimidate Qwilfish and god knows what else. Our NU has none of those, especially Magneton. @gbwead happy now?

Please don't buff Rapid Spin.

You could get something with AoE move and slap an Exp. Share on the Breloom. Teddiursa is probably the best pick to level up other stuff (or train EVs), since it gets access to Sweet Scent, Hyper Voice, Earthquake and the ability Pickup.

Life shinies 1-0 @Zhikodark shinies noob

Papi Frag is wins 0 hax at all

I hope someone recorded this.

Don't get all the hate tbh. Team Tournaments were never about the prize, it's a platform where teams can measure their strengths against each other. Personally I prefer the feeling of "we won, today we were the best" than whatever cash/RP/shiny prize you can come up with. Also didn't realize NORE would have that many points, considering we failed to play 3 or 4 TTs this year. AW could potentially top us in this last TT though, so that should be interesting. Good luck.

Would you like some help on setting up your signature? lol

NikhilR's posts pretty much sum up how Druddigon doesn't fall into being uncompetitive. We should move on and discuss about Durant instead, I think it has the characteristic of an offensive uber.

I'm looking to buy a shiny Magikarp/Gyarados, I can pay in pure yen. Requirements: Female Good IVs. Preferably 25+/31/25+/x/25+/x or 25+/x/25+/x/25+/31 or 25+/31/25+/x/25+/31 Nature is not a must have, but I'm willing to look at a finished project and be told how much I need to pay for it. Alternatively, I could be interested in buying Male Water B/Dragon shinies with good IVs. IGN: LifeStyle
