  2. Damn, I just realized that yesterday was my one year anniversary at LYLE. Yang, pls give a shiny for that too. EDIT: Actually it was 4 days ago: https://forums.pokemmo.eu/index.php?/topic/26828-lyle-kingcheerios-the-hunger-is-real/page-90#entry717070
  3. Mods pls close this shop for now: https://forums.pokemmo.eu/index.php?/topic/50603-all-these-dittos-for-50k/?view=findpost&p=985045 So I'm trying to buy a shellder and the owner wants 9.5m in yen at least. LF 18 with yen+shinies or 16m yen A yen+shinies deal must have at least 9.5m in yen. -------------------------------------- I'm currently paydaying NPCs to get by, so eventually I'll have enough yen to live for a month which means I won't sell it. Feel free to PM me or whisper me in game. IGN: NikhilR

  5. Starmie doesn't rule the meta nowadays because of how physically offensive the meta has become. It's got nothing to do with the fear of pursuit lax because in that case people would stop running almost anything which had the likelihood of being trapped. There will always be new special walls like ludicolo, blissey, porygon, hypno (maybe) etc. to take up it's place when it comes to walling. I'm all for a flat ban on it.
  6. Good luck with it Jose. Do you live in US, Fred? It's just that in India and most other countries in Asia, McD is supposedly a fancy place to actually have food from. So most people hold it to a high regard. But my brother who's in the US atm said that it's one of the shittiest restaurants in Texas, relatively. So it's kinda weird how the main headquarters (redundancy for you Golden :P ) is worse off compared to its branches.
  7. For a fire punch lax, you don't need 252hp/def dusclops. The whole purpose of wow at times is to help with the attk drop. Also if you want to use dusclops as a spin blocker, 252hp/spdef is the better choice. Um my snorlax hasn't died to starm (modest) / jolt upon rest. It's got a small chance of 4hkoing with lefties and I'm left with almost 80 after leftovers recovery which is sufficient amount of health to rest again vs any other spaker (assuming I kill the special attacker upon waking up) Vs Rain Dancers, yeah the spread is a problem,
  8. Well the ev spread could always be tilted to make it look like dusc is ideal in almost every situation. 252+ Atk Snorlax Crunch vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Dusclops: 72-86 (48.9 - 58.5%) -- 62.5% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery For the record, I do run a 252 attk+ snorlax, hence the reason why I do my calcs using that.
  9. Dusc switch into crunch --> def drop. Snorlax crunches, ggnore Dusc (obvs dusc user will switch out but can't switch in again onto a lax)
  10. We're talking about the possibility of snorlax running firepunch over crunch. Only in those circumstances can Dusclops be considered as a viable switch in, because otherwise crunch could even lead to -def drop also.
  11. Yup. The thing is, haze is only useful for Snorlax. When it comes to other status boosting pokemon, dusclops is slower so having haze doesn't make the slightest of difference since it'll most likely get killed while trying to haze.
  12. Snorlax on it's own isn't that op imo and hence cannot sweep. So it isn't banworthy. But I know that the council is against complex bans, so I wouldn't "mind" lax being banned.
  13. Some snorlaxes carry Fire Punch nowadays, so skarmory/fort aren't an effective way of dealing with curselaxes. ------------------------------------- Imo curselax is just op, if you're not running a metagross/rhydon then you're most likely going to get rekt. Forretress won't be able to do anything to an immunity curselax that is setting up. Skarmory will take up dmg while trying to phase it out but once lax is the last pokemon, this will be a problem. With metagross, it's a more difficult situation if you're not carrying choice band and the lax is carrying fire punch. This makes Rhydon the one and only true counter. Weezing gets hit on the switch in and chances are that it gets paralyzed. This has been seen several times and with it's lack of offensive presence it doesn't make weezing a counter either. Dusclops with haze is a nice way of dealing with curselax carrying fire punch instead of crunch. Sub disable gengars are quite nice but they don't technically force the lax to switch out so ultimately it could just lead to a pp stall. It's true that if you're running a very hyper offensive team, then that limits the chances of lax to come in. But not everyone should be forced to run a particular form of playstyle to deal with a particular pokemon.
  14. Dayum, looking back Feb was one hell of a month. The teamwork yesterday was brilliant and thank you guys for helping us with the scouting, pokes, ts chat etc. Helped take things off my mind. Every time I heard Bowser screaming "YES I GOT HIM" just put me more at ease. Tried my best vs Frags and even though I did outplay him, rng didn't help. May be in this month the meta will get better with certain bans like dug, curse on lax, heracross etc. It's been so long since we've last reached the finals of TT so getting there was great. All in all, I'm proud of every single one of you because you all stepped up. Here's to a new month and new era of dominance :)
  15. Went to my hometown in India and got my net fixed. I'll be on some time later today.
