UPN Monotype Tournament

[Ethereal]

Yayyy, I have lots to play with.
Good luck everyone! I won't have much time for the rest of the day, but I can probably squeeze in a match this following week.

[Emp]

> Normal

Would've been more comfortable with Ground/Rock but Normal should be pretty fun. Battols start when I'm done with exams (19th)

[phoopes]

Fire. 5th on my list of prefered types, behind Psychic, Steel, Dragon, and Water. Not too bad.

[quintowill]

Steel, Bug, Electric.

After that it gets a bit fuzzy for order of preference.

[Talon87]

I got Ghost. I'm sure it will likely not be a popular type for a monotype tournament such as this, but all the same, I thought I would offer it up for trade for people who are not happy with their own types. See if we can work out an arrangement that is agreeable to both parties. That doesn't mean I'll just give away Ghost willy-nilly, but it does mean that if you absolutely cry your eyes out at night that you don't have a Ghost Pokemon IRL and if you got the type you hate most in the world that I'd be sympathetic.

I guess I should list types I'd be interested in that the people who got them may be upset they got: Grass, Ice, Fire, Bug, ... that's probably it. If you got a different type than one of these but are still "MY GHOOOOOOOOSTS ;_;", it doesn't hurt to at least try and ask me. There are other types I'm interested in but did not list because I imagine they're quite popular both theme-wise as well as competitive-wise.

Just to be sure Tyranitar with Sand Stream is banned?

[DaveTheFishGuy]

Pretty sure it isn't but using it makes you a bad person.

[quintowill]

I would laugh if Kuno decides to use a team of pixies.

[phoopes]

1. LC, if we didn't even use a certain Pokemon in a tourney battle, are we allowed to switch its moves? My case is that I accidentally put the wrong Hidden Power on one of my 'Mons, but I didn't even use it in my match against Kairne, so I'd like to change it. Just checking to make sure though.

2. Speaking of my match against Kairne, here's me winning.

Uploaded by Talon, because my comp was like, "Lol, I'm not saving this log even though you clearly have that box checked."

[Firewater]

grass...

...
...

w/e, let's roll some bitches.


also I would have voted no on banning sand rush Exadrill, not my issue though.


...tries to think of a team...


...do we have to keep the same 6 the entire time?

[Concept]

Normally I'd make a sarcastic post at this point, but I really want to see what Talon can do with it in my stead :p.

[quintowill]

Its prepare 9, choose 6.

I havne't been here all day. so I don't know.


also, thanks Quinto.

[Concept]

I didn't say my sarcastic post would be in any way fair :p.

[Firewater]

w/e, but just curious, why is Shaymin -Sky form banned?

[phoopes]

Here's my winning battle against Quintowill.

2-0. Off to a good start. Though I'm surprised I won the last one, with the whole type disadvantage thing.

Yeah... I had control til the end. If I would have just Rock Slide with Cradily instead of Toxic, I may have won.

>Quinto's team

You realise FW got curbstomped by Heatran not Terrakion right? :p Terrakion was Tdos' challenge.

That's why in the log I said, "Lol, FW Bane." If anyone should have named their team member that, it should have been my Heatran.

[quintowill]

Which it should be.

[Firewater]

...

Fire vs. Grass

but RNG is such a troll.

silly self-KO clause

http://pokemon.aesoft.org/replay-pho...er--2012-01-08


Phoopes won though.

[phoopes]

Yes, Grass is really troll. 2 Toxic misses and 3 Fire Blast misses on my end, but I still won due to this rule...

Recoil from Flare Blitz killed me, hence I am the winner. 3-0 in the tourney.

[Firewater]

...should be 2-0, but 1-1 now

Aww, I'm too late.
