>>17140675 that's kinda what Q has done, basically.
>3 gym positions >4 elite gym positions >1 champion gym position it's equality among the top 8 without being too much just like one of my communist animes.
Nanaca 1418-7364-5522
>>17140925 If that's how things are gonna work, then I think it might be a better idea to swap the numbers on regular gyms and elite gyms.
It would make more sense numerically and also make it easier to calculate for the finals.
First eliminations are regulars, second eliminations are elites, and whoever wins the final battle gets top gym, with the loser also being elite.
>>17141070 Well, I kinda agree, but Q's runnin' the show. Really, though, it's a cosmetic difference. Challengers will probably be able to take on leaders in any order. The rankings are mostly just for among us. Bragging rights and all that.
Nanaca 1418-7364-5522
>>17141578 That's basically the only thing it'll be good for, yeah. The right to claim gym "order".
We'll probably post up an official order or something that challengers can choose to follow or not. The choice lies with them really.

I think to strip the victors of the tournament of any sort of feeling of accomplishment by placing them on exactly the same standing as those who didn't come as far is a bit unfair to them.

bump of boredom Finished training a couple Smeargle. One of them has Moody, though. I've never trained a Moody Pokemon before, so I wanted to see what it would be like... Wow, it's definitely overpowered. I don't think I'll use it after all. My other Smeargle is a normal one, and I like it a lot more. I'll probably use it on my Singles/Rotation team.

I say this because it is clear that you lack knowledge of some Pokemon and their typing/abilities, and that is a dangerous position to be in. Gastrodon completely shut down your team because you didn't seem to know that her typing makes her immune to Electric attacks, and that her ability makes her immune to Water attacks AND buffs her SpAtk. You used Water and Electric attacks on her multiple times, giving me free turns and boosts, enough that she could have 3-0'd your whole team if I hadn't gotten cocky.

The trick to Protean isn't spamming the same moves, either, because that's when you set yourself up for getting wrecked by priority attacks that are SE.
Mix it up a bit to throw off your opponent, learn how to predict switches. Greninja may be frail, but he can take resisted and neutral priority moves decently enough if needed, and if you did enough damage on the switch, you might even be able to KO your target after their priority fails to KO you.

Gastrodon took me off guard for sure. I did good on his other pokemon which took me off guard because I know azu is pretty bulky, also my first time dealing with a Cloyster. I don't battle much.

Which pokemon in your monotype team would you consider to be your signature pokemon? Mine would be Goodra. He's cute, huggable, can tank any special hit, and keep you guessing thanks to it's amazing movepool. Easily my favorite pokemon this gen.

>>17169154 Gastrodon and Cloyster have been incredibly solid additions to my team, but I'd say Gastrodon has the edge for being shut down quite so easily.
I used to prefer Starmie and Kingdra, but man, Gastrodon and Cloyster have practically carried me this entire tournament. Things might be different if my opponents were different, but Gastrodon proves useful often even in non-monotype situations.
I wish I had Bank though; I love Raspberry (my current Gastrobuddy), but my old one, Blueberry, is more optimized.

Froslass is one of my two favorite pokemon design-wise, the other being Volcarona. She's fast, throws around spikes and taunts, and can fire a decently powerful Ice Beam when needed.
Battle-wise, it would probably be Mamoswine. He's been slaying dragons

Galvantula's pretty unique and Joltik is the cutest little bugger around so I kinda like the entire line, but Scizor's also up for consideration by virtue of being Mega and also having saved my ass loads of times. Vivillon's also in the running, because though it's a risky move there have been times when it's pulled me out of some really sticky situations and even won entire battles just by itself. Satan butterfly's also in a Premier ball when everything else is in a regular Pokeball, so there's that too.

>>17184724 It's pretty dangerous to not invest in speed when it comes to Talonflame. A lot of the time, Talonflame can survive to strike a second time with a sliver of health, and you risk that when you don't pull full investment into HP.

And if that Air Slash would've flinched me, you would have easily won the 2nd battle. Also on the last move of the battle, I just did the calc... it was a 87.5% chance for me to KO you... if it didn't you would have won there as well.

>>17189564 >Flying is a broken type. Come on now, don't do that.
I put a lot of time into planning and building my team, and I've put a LOT of time into strategizing before each battle, especially against you, and I feel I've made some very good decisions in my battles. There have been plenty of times in my battles where a different Flying user would've been outplayed.
I even 2-0'd both the other Flying finalists.
And to be honest, the reason I chose Flying was because I already had 2 Flying Pokes I wanted for my team bred and trained, and had 2 more available in breeding stock from prior breeds that I just had to tweak the sets on a bit during re-breeding/training, so it was the quickest type for me to get a team together for.
With people bringing Minimize Chandelures, and Talonflames/Speedboost Blazikens and such, I don't regret putting powerful Pokes on my team. Anyone could have chose whichever type and whichever Pokes they wanted, we all started on even ground.

And your Rotom-H could have really done work against me if you hadn't switched to it letting it get OHKO.
In my strategizing, every possible scenario I ran had you win until I found out my Charizard could take a Dragon Pulse from your Charizard, even if I was X and it was supereffective. Charizard is what gave me the slight edge I needed to eke out my victories against you. Both our battles came down to the last Pokemon for both of us and were very close. And as I mentioned earlier, there were a couple RNG cases that could have given you the win but just happened to land in my favor.

I think I have a pretty good idea what you're feeling right now, it definitely sucks to lose after you've been consistently winning all the previous matches. I was definitely pretty salty about our match and I thought that type disadvantage or not I'd be able to pull through with a just a little bit of luck, just like I did with my general matches.
It stings, but I think what's important to keep in mind is that just because you lost once it doesn't mean you're done for. There's still another round left before the top eight leaders have to duke it out, and there is definitely a way to climb up even after a loss.
Also if you just quit now, personally I'd be quite pissed off, seeing as how that would basically mean you stole what might've been my win and dumped it into the trash.

Mato and I will be battling tomorrow on my lunch break, if all goes well. 12 hours apart, wow. Makes it tough for both of us, I'm sure. You know... The whole reason I picked Normal-type, really, was because I latched onto the idea of Norman, from Hoenn. He was your father. He was incredibly strong, he helped everybody out, but at the end of the day, you could go hang out with dear old Dad. I so admired that aspect of Gen III... It's criminal that he's been the one and only father figure in the entire franchise. My life's a wreck, and it's my fault. I've made a lot of mistakes... Got into debt, got lazy, isolated myself from others, etc. But at the center of my misery and pain is a man: my own father. It takes two to tango, and I'd be willing to take half the blame, but our relationship is dysfunctional... In my own twisted way, being a Normal-type Gym Leader was my way of coping with a pain so great that it overwhelms me. If I make it into the top 8 (and to be honest, I think I will), I don't know where life will take me... But my hope and prayer for you all (and myself) in 2014 is that fathers and their kids could learn to love and support one another again. The world would be a better place.

I think you are right too about finishing in the top 8, you have a really solid team that covers its weaknesses well. It's funny though, because when we were battling i thought it was a lot like battling Norman, except instead of using a gimmicky one shot wonder slaking, you had a much better team.

>>17194209 I have maximum investment with a Jolly nature. Venusaur's base speed is only 10 higher than Cloyster, so max investment is more than enough to outspeed, hence my confusion
Frisbee [Flying] !xGitLuxURY
>>17199464 I don't believe we have rules locked in yet, but I think this is what we've been discussing:
A challenger can use any Pokes, moves, items they want, as long as Flat Rules doesn't prohibit them.
We haven't decided how much/if they can switch up their teams between matches, but I'm for the notion that once they've begun their challenge, they shouldn't be allowed to switch anything- they should have to beat all 8 gyms with the same team. If they'd like to switch up their team, they need to re-beat any gyms they've already beaten, so that all 8 gyms are defeated with their one un-changed team.
I think allowing switching will make it a bit too easy to beat monotype teams with a team of no restrictions.
If you're the first to beat all 8 gyms, you're crowned our Champ.
Any subsequent challengers to beat all 8 gyms can challenge the Champ to overthrow him.

>>17201547 An Elite Four was voted against because it would make the challenge longer than some people would find comfortable.
Personally I'm all for an E4 but I think that if people start mentioning that they wish the challenge was a bit longer, we could always just find new people or shuffle ranks upwards to fill in the position. Ganon [Water] 1891-1255-5773
>>17201473 Very first turn of the match. He won the speed tie. I know it was a speed tie because two turns later, I outsped him. I ran a calc on it, and the only way Venusaur speed ties Jolly 252 Cloyster is if it is running +Speed and ~180 or so EVs (don't have exact number, posting from phone), or neutral with ~240. But now he says he's not invested at all, and I assume that means nature, too. No idea what happened.
