>>28209507>>28210203LOOK AT ME. LOOK AT ME AND LAUGH.
I won the battle but that shit was no worth the cost. Too many good 'mons have died this day. Burgh's a fucking asshole. Things went really downhill after Ziggy went down.
>>28210447Yeah Maria died to him, shit was stupid.
There was one silver lining to this shitstorm though. A true bro has been discovered, and from a most unlikely place. Tristan, the one from whom I expected nothing, was the hero of the day. I sent him in to fight fire with fire against Masquerain with Minimize, and he singlehandedly took out both it and Leavanny. And on that topic, sidebar: Does Round secretly have a higher hit chance? Because by the time I had sent out Tristan he had at least three Double Teams up, and another by the time I had maxed his own evasion with Minimize, but Round never once missed.
As a last note, an extra special fuck you goes out to whoever thought it would be cool to give the third gym leader a Focus Sash/Counter combo. Crits happen, they suck but they're part of the game, but that shit just felt unfair. Aw well, them's the rules. Onwards, to wherever the fuck I go after this!
