ThinkNice Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 either the guy was retarded or playing on some third level prediction shit I dunno, I think he played very risky. But if he was predicting me, those were pretty nice predictions. Link to comment
Gilgamesh Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 The funnest way to play pokemon is to play it like you're reading your opponent's psychological profile. I like to predict prediction predictions. It sometimes leads to something fucking up, but when it works its the greatest thing ever. G0dPower 1 Link to comment
ThinkNice Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 The funnest way to play pokemon is to play it like you're reading your opponent's psychological profile. I like to predict prediction predictions. It sometimes leads to something fucking up, but when it works its the greatest thing ever. Not sure if srs ;p But anyway, that is usually a nice way to think of competitive play. It's only very hard to recognize someone's psychological profile (as you call it) in a few turns, it might even take a few dozens of games depending on the player. I can only safely say I know two of these 'profiles' well and they are Barrage and Amanu. A very good player though, is aware of his own decision making and habits and can sometimes stray from this to catch a very skilled opponent off guard. Chess with RNG, but yeah this is what drew me too the comp scene of Pokémon. Link to comment

Heavenol Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 What happens if you use trick on a pokemon that has mega stone? Link to comment
Gilgamesh Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Nothing happens. Mega Stones cannot be removed via any method(Knock Off, Thief, Trick moves, Fling etc) Heavenol 1 Link to comment
ThinkNice Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Nothing happens. Mega Stones cannot be removed via any method(Knock Off, Thief, Trick moves, Fling etc) Which gives another layer to Trick prediction. So the game plan here was pretty simple: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-74669589 Also, my ability with Blastoise didn't read MegaLauncher, is that jjust a nug or did I do something wrong?

G0dPower Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I heard we got UU http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/uubeta-74727937 List is up to if its not already posted. Crazy how similar the usage stats are to PO's but there are still some differences like Sableye and Salamence http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/unofficial-uus-read-post-13.3496622/ Link to comment
ThinkNice Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 >Kyurem-B UU >Not making an exception for this monster >Balance I'm pretty interested to see how UU will turn out, it looks really hyper offensive but it also has a lot of great stall options with a lot of wall breaking threats gone like MegaLuke, Charizard-Megas etc Link to comment

Ssin Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/once-upon-a-team-signups.3496806/ Approved by the Red Panda Society Sorry if you expected a fancy description with some fancy artwork, you will get none of that, read the rules below and I'm sure you'll enjoy the tournament though ;] Standard Rules XY OU Tournament Single Elimination Species Clause Sleep Clause OHKO Clause Wifi Clause Timed Battles Endless Battle Clause Special Rules This is a team tournament. Each team must consist of 5 members. Sign up as a team, teams must also have a (preferably cool!) name. Every member on the team must confirm. Every round, each Pokemon cannot be used more then once by a team. That means if one team member decides to use a Tyranitar, no other member may use it for that round. It is therefore heavily suggested that you only team up with people you know and can easily communicate with; an IRC channel is ideal. To make sure this rule isn't broken I will need to know every team used, so I need either both players to confirm the teams used in their matches on the thread or, if one doesn't want his team to be spoiled, he must PM me the log instead. In the event duplicates are used, the team will be given a game loss on every game said Pokemon was used. I will NOT allow players to sign up as a free agents, for a tournament like this where communication is key, forming a team of people who don't know each other would cause too much trouble and is simply unfun. Teams 1. US BEAST [ -Tsunami- / Bad Ass * / BKC / dragonuser / Jayde ] 2. TEAM IRIS [ Dice / HSA ♥ / Eo Ut Mortus * / PttP * / Funkasaurus ] 3. Team IDM [ gr8astard / Marth / Elyis * / Problems * / CTC ] 4. team faggots [ papai noel / Danilo / aim / Hantsuki / Limitless ] 5. team crystal shroomish academy [ Bloo * / Ojama / panamaxis / reyscarface / Soulwind ] 6. NIGGAS CREW [ .Robert / CyberOdin / el poeta / J O G A / Juanpa ] 7. Team This Meta is Cheeks [ bro fist / CrashinBoomBang / GaryTheGengar / Ginku / McMeghan ] 8. Team Iconic [ Ezio / Soulgazer / Jirachee / Sayonara / Psychotic ] 9. Team Ginyu Force [ Stone_Cold / Haunter * / Fabbles * / Aldaron * / Earthworm * ] 10. Team get rekt [ King / PDC / Myzozoa / Molk / Toxzn * ] 11. KDraco Meteor [ Laurel / Masterclass / Leftiez * / Xtrashine * / Emvee * ] 12. team flatheads university [ Own3y / Xx Proman * / Lhions * / Derk * / Freddie Gibbs * ] Players with an * after their name are yet to confirm. anybody with me?
