JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 So, I kinda did not understand how the time stuff works >_> Either way, I am basically alvailable almost everyday, but I might go out from 5 AM - 4 - 5 PM depending on the traffic during weekdays, and gone from afternoon during weekends. I'm at +7(Indo) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm at +7(Indo) So, subtract out seven hours, and you get 10 PM - 10 AMish GMT + 0. . .which is close to bedtime. ;/ Edited December 18, 2013 by eclipse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Kamon Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 (edited) You two have 17 hours of difference. Just saying. You have some common availability though, which is good. Edited December 18, 2013 by Alfred Kamon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Speaking from experience, we usually manage to hold up a discussion during 11 AM - 1/2 PM in Indonesia As a bonus,I've been actually getting plenty of sleep lately so I might not be able to play the game like what I did against Shuuda back then(which was around 1 AM) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kon Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I think Kitty and I are available from 2PM to 12 AM today and tomorrow, and we'll only be here until 3PM on Friday. In GMT +0, that's 7PM to 5AM and around 7PM-8PM on Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fruity Insanity Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Are we to assume that all of Smogon's rules apply here, or are only VGC rules applicable? Because then no Mega Kangaskhan and Mega Gengar... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) Some people might prepare their team with them in mind. Banning them right now would be an unfair advantage Other than that, Doubles Mega Gengar and Kang is good, but not as broken as Singles IMHO. Even things like Chomp, Blaze, and Excadrill did not dominate half as much as they did in singles according to the last year VGC(Blaze is non existent, Chomp is a solid miss abuser, while Excadrill is not that special) In a more.... hilarious note Numel might actually more overpowered than Mega Gengar, and I'm not even joking Edited December 19, 2013 by JSND Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dondon151 Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 swift swim + drizzle was not banned in gen 5 doubles, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 To be fair, Swizzle has everything going against it with Slow Tyranitar, Crescellia kind of, and Thundurus-I being extremely common. Its still a solid team because Kingdra in Rain is the best Dragon in VGC lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dondon151 Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 i mean, it's just not as dominating. tyranitar doesn't like switching into rain teams, but you're correct that thundurus-I especially kills rain teams because of thunder wave. trick room (especially hail + trick room) also turns the speed advantage around.

JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 (edited) I think in a meta that rarely switches in, a Slow Tar Lead would REALLY fuck with Rain, since Ttar is guaranteed to get Sand up. Rain rarely runs slow build(if ever because of Kingdra) so a Ttar + Crescellia basically screws their entire plan And on a more hilarious note, Sun in Gen 6 gets such a massive buff since MegaZard Y counters Slowtar in term of having their weather up Edited December 20, 2013 by JSND Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dondon151 Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 i was watching some doubles replays and you'd be surprised how often people switch. it's not like you send in politoed, opponent sends in tyranitar or abomasnow, and you're fucked for the rest of the match.

Alfred Kamon Posted December 25, 2013 Author Share Posted December 25, 2013 Meh, this tournament isn't working at all. We should face the fact that getting 4 people online at once is... complicated, to put it mildly. Despite the time table has been published one week ago, have people actually tried to get in contact and have the matches?I don't think so. This is going to last forever if we keep it like this; while the original idea was to have a tournament every month, if possible. What do you guys say? Should we scrap it? And make a Pokébank tournament, as long as the hype for that lasts? And maybe make a better organized Multi Battle tournament in the future, with chosen pairs from, possibly, the same / a similar time zone? Just asking. Also, Merry Christmas!

It's not really my place to talk because I wasn't part of this tournament, but unless something came up I would be down for a Pokebank tournament.

Silver Lightning Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 As much as I want to use the pokemon I raised...I guess it is pretty hard to have a fullscale multibattle tournament. I still want to have one in the future though; for some reason I feel more comfortable in multi-battles than in other types. But does this mean the tournament is officially off? I've been craving a multi-battle forever, and I want to use my pokemon regardless of whether we're having the tournament or not, especially if its gonna be scrapped.

Alfred Kamon Posted December 26, 2013 Author Share Posted December 26, 2013 If people actually care about the teams / couples that were made in this tournament, we could consider this on hiatus and propose it again in the future. But we should probably make new tournaments as of now, or we'd get stuck on this forever at this point. I'm making a new poll on the matter.

Gcubedude Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 So I've had this tournament idea for awhile, and I figured this was probably the best place to post it. Even though Pokemon Bank isn't fully out everywhere, it's still possible to get every Pokemon, so I'll say it here. Basically, with six generations of Pokemon, it's possible to build a team with exactly one Pokemon from each generation. If we wanted to have a different kind of tournament, we could set a rule like this, something like "Each Pokemon on your team must be from a different generation of Pokemon." This could make team building interesting in a competitive tournament. If we wanted to make it more casual, everyone could pick their favorite Pokemon from each gen and build that as their team (although some "favorites" teams would probably include more OUs and Ubers than others). We could even allow a "max 1 Uber per team" if enough people say that an Uber is their favorite Pokemon from a certain gen." This will probably have to wait until Pokemon Bank is fully out everywhere so everyone can have easier access to Pokebank Pokemon, especially the legendaries. What do y'all think?

Silver Lightning Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 ^ Yes, yes,YES!!! Definitely! And its not just because I already have a team like that ready (1 from each Gen). The main reason I really like this idea is so that we can have more creativity when it comes to making a team. Well, I'm sure we could all have an Uber and every other pokemon be OU, but what fun would that be? I know in my own team I have about maybe 2 OUs and the rest in lower tiers; that's the kind of differentiation I want to see if we do this. Basically, while its inherently going to be "competitive" since its a tournament, it'd also be more "casual" in a way since hopefully people would want to try using their favorites from each gen that aren't necessarily overused or overpowered and try fitting them onto a team for once. So yeah, I'm all for it! It'd be a perfect way to usher in the New Year and honor the 6 generations of Pokemon we have now. I still hope we'll be able to finish the Multi-Battle Tournament someday...
