Objection! Swoobat can be useful in incredibly niche situations when your opponent is bad, even if it is outclassed by almost anything else!

Not stally, but Unaware and bullky paralysis is falling into favor with the setup craze. I've seen a lot more Quagsires, unaware clefables, Zapdos and bulky thundurus and even Klefki than normal

Lucario with mega stone! Moves were Swords Dance, Crunch, Close Combat, and Bullet Punch.

I so desperately needed Rapidash gone but my dumb Politoed only had Scald as its attack and so of course there was a dry skin Parasect on the other team. Fortunately Hypnosis never missed \o/

That failed Counter imo cost you the game, since it was still pretty salvageable from that point.

gg tho man, gg

I've no clue why people run Counter in gen 1. It only works on fighting moves, and given the only one people bother using in those days is Seismic Toss...Chansey would be better off with another special move.

It works on Normal moves too, and everyone loves to spam Body Slam on her. There was a reason that Machamp was using Earthquake.

Counter is good enough on Chansey I run it over Thunder Wave.

I went with the Counter thinking that he'd go for Submission, which was guaranteed to not KO (it does like 95ish% and Chansey was at 99%). I run it mainly in case I ever get into the Tauros vs. Chansey 1 vs. 1, as a Countered Body Slame OHKOs a Tauros.

EDIT: Now that I think about it maybe I should've seen EQ coming. I showed my hand earlier in the match when I predicted a Double Kick from Jolteon and he ended up opting for something else. Oh well I still think it would've probably came down to his Jolteon vs. my Alakazam. Which I lost because full paralysis had to set in the turn I needed Recover the most ;_;

Not just a water gun, a victory gun

KritKrow+Tailwind=WINNING

In which Mr. Kritical and Not Just A Water Gun lend their power to everyone else, enemies included, too!

NOT JUST A WATER GUN BECOMES A HERO AND DEFENDS THE NAME OF UNDYNE

Before I start, I wanna say that in hindsight Mikage should TOTALLY be a Chandelure.

In which a guy somehow fails to kill Gengar with Megazard

TYRANITAR DUEL! Except not really

Second most amusing ragequit I've ever inflicted but I won't say they weren't in the right

And two fights with a guy that were really fun.

Juri-level divine intervention

Utena with the vengeance.

He seems like someone who is trying too hard to do the strategic thing. Like, he's seen strategic play, and he's trying to apply it to his own games but he's mistakenly applying it in places where it's just so much smarter to brute force the opponent away. Examples:
  • his Charizard should have just decimated your Gengar with Drought-boosted fire instead of pissing about with Roost, especially once it was clear that he couldn't outroost Sludge Wave
  • his Lanturn should have just struck Keldeo with another Water or Electric-type move instead of pissing about with Ice Beam. It's not like your team had very many good switch-ins anyway that are weak to Ice. Not sure what he was thinking.
  • his Sceptile should have just hit you with something, anything, rather than pissing about with Leech Seed to sap you of 2% of your health for the KO. What if you had not been paralyzed and had gotten off a crippling attack? Dumb.

Yeah, that whole fight I felt kinda bad, like he had this intricate, (to him) beautiful contraption put together that I'd just kicked over.

Then again, I was basically yelling at the screen for him to just murder Mikage with Flamethrower if only to just get it over with.

Literally snatching victory from the jaws of defeat.

Don't look or you'll spoil the TWEEST
Spoiler: show
It was nice to see the guy respond nicely though. First time that's happened, especially since that freeze guaranteed I won and it was only because of the freeze at that point.


Letty is also proving to be able as threatening in Gen I OU as she was in Perfect Cherry Blossom. But PS doesn't have extra Gen I tiers q.q.

Azulo is a champ, Flying Donic finishes this trip to 1200 square

Hilarious rage(against The Machine)quit

I did not deserve any of this ragequit

In hindsight Toxicing Volcarona was a waste on my part because it wasn't packing Giga Drain afaik.

IN WHICH DRESS BLUES TAKES A LIFE ORB SURF AND LIVES WITH EXACTLY 1 HP

I'm curious, what is Dewgong's role in your team? I think you'd find better success if you stuck in Lapras or even (if you want to be unique) Articuno.
