Silver Lightning Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 These sound like good battles IMO. I'm just glad I put up a good fight and didn't get 6-0'd.... XP Also, how long does the poll run until? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ema Skye Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 Poll is just to get an idea of what format people want. I'll most likely close it in a week. I am around for the next hour and 10 minutes for those who want to have their tryout battle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I'm going to have one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ema Skye Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 Depending on my schedule, I may be able to hold tryout battles tomorrow as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have to put thought into the team, which I kinda dont want to do for a game I dont take seriously anymore :V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 (edited) Putting random team would do much better than my team that is iterally made of - a failed idea known as Yache Landorus - random filler, but SR is cool so lets use Stealth Rock here - "I want a defog, but I'm a hipster and I don't want latias, so lets use Latios" - "I Like powerful Shadow Balls" - I don't like taking powerful Shadow Balls - KyuBee is a pretty cool Dragon, 120 SPA Ice Beam and not afraid of Levitate and Thick fat Edited February 2, 2014 by JSND Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comet Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I chose a 5 common pokemon and mega Banette to start. I then replaced them with stuff that would suit my needs more. I went from Ferro, Forretress, and Excadrill and am now using a lead Dugtrio with stealth rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Maybe late, but better late than never Good game dude Honestly I feel like I only win because Athena really did not expect chesnaught to really decide the game. Over the course of the game, he manage to outpredict all of my plays, such as using Ice Punch on my Latios switch in, and most notably, double Ice Beam on Rotom W. The game is basically decided when I manage to OHKO Genesect at 80%(iirc its lo) thanks to Shadow Ball Aegislash Crit after breaking from freeze One glaring misplay that I noticed was the misprediction against Scarf Landorus and Chesnaught vs Conkeldurr, but the latter is a 50 50 because chesnaught has sub. Finally, Latias could have played a better role by applying pressure to my noticably Latias weak team So, overall Pros: Athena's prediction is pro nerfplz Chesnaught manhandles Athena's team Landorus I being a bro. Honestly its the real mvp of the game Ice Beam does a clean 30% to Rotom W Cons: I suck at predicting Latias is commited to sudoku Terrakion literally does nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ema Skye Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 I pick a focal with my teams (like my new one was Mega Pinsir, while my older one is the Rotom-W/Megasaur/Heatran core), and build around it. Dat Chesnaught. Just... dat Chesnaught. I'll be open for battles in the next two hours. Then I won't be around till tomorrow afternoon, MST.

Ema Skye Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 Bumping this as the beginning of this thread's life is a project. I will be offering tryout battles tomorrow from 10am to Noon MST (GMT-7). Tryout battles on Saturday will most likely be in the evening at around 5pm or later.

Alfred Kamon Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) Hmmm... cm'on people! We need 13 leaders and only 10 have asked for a tryout battle so far. Aren't there 3 more people who want to join this? Come on, it's going to be fun! haha Edited February 6, 2014 by Alfred Kamon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ema Skye Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 I suppose I can give myself a spot if the need arises. That'd still require two more people though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheon Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I *MIGHT* be able to get one of my friends to participate in this. However I won't be able to talk to him about it until tomorrow evening since I fly back to University tomorrow and I'll be travelling from 5AM PST to 6PM EST. He's a pretty competent battler for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ema Skye Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 I do have the minimum amount of 12 for this to work, so I'm not as worried about getting enough people. But I'm still totally open to those who want to try for a spot in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ema Skye Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 Tryouts are over. If you've played a tryout battle, then congrats on getting into the league! For anyone eagerly awaiting a challenge, I will hopefully have the event starting sometime this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintessence Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Aww I'd love to be in the league but a wild Bidoof distracted me my availability is complete garbage lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ema Skye Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 And we're ready to go! Champion: Alfred Kamon Elite Four: Comet (Water-type) / JSND (Fighting-type) / DualSilverGunner (Steel-type) / Not-An-Apple (Ghost-type) Gym Leaders: Breezy Kansaki (Flying-type) / LuxSpecs (Dragon-type) / Silver Lightning (Electric-type) / SmogonsLawnMower (Dark-type) / Esme (Poison-type) / Xinnidy (Ice-type) / Shin (Grass-type) / Assurhaddon (Fire-type) I'd prefer if you used PMs to arrange a battle time, but use the thread if you must. Be sure to report all wins here. Godspeed Challengers! Remember that you need to challenge and defeat all eight gyms before you can challenge the elite four.

LuxSpes Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Just want to say that there's no 'c' at the end of my username. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheon Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) Good luck to all challengers! I look forward to battling all of you! EDIT: Would be a good idea to say when I'm available. Even though I'm E4, I'll probably repost this if it gets buried, but I sadly don't have any time during the week for battles. All battles with me will have to be on the weekend.

Breezy Kanzaki Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 name changing in the middle of this was a bad idea XD I should be free for the weekend (probably not tomorrow/Friday because stuffz), so try to catch me then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comet Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) I'm available most weekdays after 4:00 Eastern time and most of the time on weekends. I'm look forward to slaughtering accepting challenges! PM me to arrange a time. Edited February 13, 2014 by Comet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Lightning Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) I'm not quite sure what my schedule will be coming up soon yet (and I'm still hammering out some details for my team), so about the earliest I'll be accepting matches is probably Saturday and Sunday. I'll post again when I know my schedule for next week. Good luck to all challengers! I'll do my best to provide a nice challenge but remember what they say about playing with lightning....or was it fire? I don't remember..... XD Edited February 13, 2014 by Silver Lightning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruity Insanity Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 PM me if you want to battle. I'm generally available anytime EXCEPT Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. EST. And when I'm sleeping. Oh, and on Sundays, too.
