Still waiting for you to win an official B)

Title says everything. Doubles is probably the most entertaining format in PokeMMO, and lately it has seen an increase in its player base. It havent had enough support until the recent pvp announcement (doubles matchmaking, yay!) and it looks like a perfect time to help the community. That being said, I'm making a doubles discord to gather everything about this format in a single place. Is still WIP but should be finished in a few weeks. It will contain enough guides and resources for new players, as well as a place to discuss strategies for more experienced ones. Teambuilding sessions, community-hosted tournaments support (will try to host a weekly tournament, for example), etc. Also adding a doubles leaderboard coz who doesn't like a bit of competitiveness. It will take in consideration the future ranked leaderboard + tournament records. A monthly prize for the top players might be something nice, I'll think about it. Any support would be greatly appreciated! Here is the link https://discord.gg/EEJwNKS Thanks for reading and good luck in your future doubles matches!

Since we both got a 5-0 score I would be fine with a bo3 between us to decide the title, or just give it to him. The banner wont go to my sig, so I don't really care

I'm actually 5-0, benched myself last week not knowing there were awards for regular season. iirc Im tied at wins/losses with another player

Spain 0 - 0 Columbia A Doubles - Zigh VS iJulianFNT After the previous OU match is finished

It would be the correct choice, if you dont know then research/ask. Theres a big enough button that says "upload replay" after finishing a match btw, so yeah, just laziness

Smh sweet, I thought u had a better criteria. 500k

You know I have to... I'll take whatever amount is left

Would be unfair in some scenarios, for example if someone scores a 6-0 during swiss but his team doesnt reach playoffs, while the awarded player gets a 6,7 or 8-0 after reaching playoffs. They don't play the same number of matches, so wouldn't be right to compare them

I still don't understand the problem. There is a ranking, why would it be wrong?

ye ye, my bad. Didnt read it carefully

nvm im dumb

Love the idea of an unofficial non pvp event, will definitely participate!

True, its been so long since I last saw one that I forgot about that item

Not even close to be similar. Yeah, cofa has lefties, but the stats are way different. Lets take a 0 Evs/neutral nature to make things simpler. Dusclops: Cofagrigus: 115 Hp 133 Hp 225 Def 165 Def 225 Spdef 125 Spdef Also excuse me if I'm wrong, but if comparing it to Cofagrigus, what's the difference when both are taunt/setup bait? I would gladly choose dusclops over cofa 100% of the times. Pain split/Nightshade will always be better than a non boosted shadowball/hex. Then the solution to this is to move infernape up (which was something I was in favor), not downgrade Mienshao.

I would say those, except for electabuz, are overall better than magnezone. They do a pretty good job at their role, while magnezone's role is... non existant besides trapping steel types (not a good role in the current meta)

except none of those resistances except rock and psychic matter. Also any rock/psychic user has access to a super effective move against magnezone. Its speed is garbage in any way (not slow enough for tr, not fast enough outside of it). Also steel+electric is one of the worst possible typings considering the current meta, x4 weakness to ground is too bad. The only good thing is the ability, but again, with the current meta running steel type mons isnt that worth, so meh. Sturdy is also not good enough in doubles. " (hi togekiss) " even loses a 1v1 situation vs togekiss...

Ordered 2 mons and were done pretty fast, defo recommended

Extremely bulky, will stay for a long time + has great support moves. Just for that is worth C or even B-. Taunt kinda shuts it down, but that doesnt mean is useless. Also is not passive, you are kinda biased comparing it to things like reuniclus. They dont serve the same purpose. 105 Base speed with fake out + feint access, REGENERATOR, enough stats to be run mixed and 0hko a good chunk of the top meta a D tier? are we insane? Infernape might be better, but that doesnt mean is a bad mon ... just no. "struggles a lot against follow me". It only struggles against blastoise, is an amazing mon against togekiss/amoongus/electabuzz/lucario. Also rotom is not a valid reason to put it lower. A mon that when scarfed, could literally sweep your entire team if it has enough support. I see Scrafty's intimidate is much better than moxie in doubles. Cheking ur "read machamp": " Doesn't really do much that top/breloom/conk don't do better. " You are comparing a C tier mon to what it should be a Top S/A+. That's just stupid. Is in C tier for reasons. Also it does a better job than breloom/conkeldurr in many cases, they dont serve the same purpose. Won't talk about other mons coz I don't like them either, but still think they deserve C tier. Quoting the C tier description " (Reserved for Pokemon that are mediocre in the Doubles metagame, but have just as many notable flaws that prevent them from being effective. Pokemon in the C tier often require significant support to be effective. Pokemon from this rank tend to face a lot of competition with the more commonly used Pokemon. These Pokemon exert a below average presence in the metagame.)" and now D tier description " (Reserved for pokemon which only carry out a very limited function and are easily outclassed by other Pokemon in higher rankings)" how could you say all of those mons deserve to be in D tier? literally all of those can do an outstanding job with the correct team; furthermore they can be used in multiple teams, not just 1 gimmick 1 trick team.

As you say, is bad. You won't win a tour relying on it. But think about this for a second. You signup in a tour, after some training, you spent a few mill in a new team, you cleared your schedule so you can play without interruptions... And then you lose r1 because a random has brought kings rock on a mon and flinches you in an impactful turn. Obviously that random will get smashed in later rounds. What did you acomplish there having such items? A waste of time and resources.

You really made my day with this
