[Jonah the Slaking]

i asked what a CCAT was in chat, and aeon responded with this, http://www.just****inggoogleit.com/ , so i quit, again, because you people are ignorant, and because my mouse is fixed. good day, best of luck.

Are you serious right now? Are you COMPLETELY SERIOUS? That is the WORST reason in the WORLD for anyone to quit ANYTHING. Good f***ing riddance.

3. Be kind to all members of the clan and even members outside of the clan.

Wrong answer, Jonah.

If i'm being completely honest with myself, I agree. But the compassionate side of me is telling me to call you an *ss and wish them luck in their future endeavors. Then again, I agree completely, just google it, I mean really, we can't do everything for you. One of this clan's values might be about improving the lesser informed, but if you can't find the answer on google, just P/VM your tutor if they aren't on PO, or actually get a tutor if you don't have one. It's really not that hard to get an answer if you need it, so please, if you want to quit just because someone off-handedly told you to use your resources then go ahead, I won't stop you.

I belive it was Benjamin Franklin who stated "Asking a Question is only appropriate when all other means of identifying the answer have been utilized"

Wrong answer, Jonah.

Couldn't we just have jesus post it but from what i read you all love genesect but i have a pretty neat little counter to it in mind so keep tune and you might just see a core tonight

He has a different avi now. It's from like Gravity Falls or something.

[Divine Retribution]

So obnoxious I hate them x_x They outspeed like... everything on my team and wreak havoc. Luckily my starter can usually take the first U Turn (despite being psychic type) but it does like 60% and takes away a lot of it's bulk for later. And the biggest problem is that they're every where, so it's not just like an occasional problem, it's super common. In short I've never used one, but I find them highly obnoxious, so blehhh

Heatran says hello.

No, really, Heatran ****s up almost every Genesect set there ever was, but it requires some prediction. Bringing him into a scarfed Flamethrower will force a switch, but Genesect is hard to actually hit because of U-Turn.

Genesect should run Hidden Power Ground in sheer fear of that monster.

Actually, I just realized this, but Genesect is kinda like Excadrill, in the sense that they're really hard and annoying to counter, but it's really fun to use them.

Mono event has ended

Lol, that was a really short burst.

Frankly, Im a bit tired of all the drama that somehow follows you around everywhere.

And lose the best coverage in the game through Flamethrower, Thunderbolt, and Ice Beam? No thanks.

i never got placed in a division......btw.............idc what division

I'd ask what Division you'd like to be in, but you seem to have left. If you do see this, I'd ask you to reconsider, but sadly I doubt you will.

And yeah, Prohawk, what you said when he asked what CCAT was, was pretty bang out of order. Same with you Jonah. Remember the rules, I will have to punish you otherwise.

Hm, expert belt Genesect never crossed my mind, just scarf, specs, and life orb. But really, expert belt can work on just about anything that uses those second two items, so I could certainly see it working as a well breaker.

Kind of like the first time I used a Hydreigon to catch steel types off guard. No one saw life orb damage, so they just assumed it had a choice item back then.

I use Expert Belt Genesect on my team. Not meaning to brag but I went for it immediately, after all, a Pokemon who is used so widely with a Scarf is just begging to be Ebelted. And yes, it is rather awesome. However, there are times when I wish I had the speed...

Rate your battling out of 10, be honest!: In-game, 9.9, Wi-fi, i had my first 10 battles with the user Yung, my friend, yesterday. I lost them all, but i nearly one a few, and he said i was really good and had potential (for a beginner) so i'd say, about 2.9.
A brief description of yourself, along with anything else you'd like to mention: I am really good in game. Im good also in co-op, legendary battles and Battle Tower. im good if given a role in a group, such as being the manager of Wall-ing pokemon or Tank pokemon, but im not very good at EV training so i don't have many FAST pokemon, but im a good contributer both in brains, and i can flex my muscles on the BattleFeild

Welcome, good to see you have signed up and glad to have you in my Division!

Haha yea, kinda doesn't count...or does it. Good opportunity to get dat top 40 in PS for HoF haha

Yeah, I guess I should put something about that, it doesn't really count when the ladder's just been reset. I'll work on that.

[The Mysterious Stranger]

Honestly, Psycho, I feel that what prohawk did is okay, because it was obviously a joke. I'm sure you've said "Google it" before. And yeah, give the ladder time to make sense.

[Zachmac]

Actually, I just realized this, but Genesect is kinda like Excadrill, in the sense that they're really hard and annoying to counter, but it's really fun to use them.

To be honest, Genesect still hasn't given me much of a problem so far. All of my favorite scarfers can still outspeed it, and Genesect is about always holding a choice item, so all I have to do is mess with it.

I can't really do that with Excadril.

[Deadly Nightshade™]

Just wondering, is sand veil Garchomp Smogon leagal?

[The Mysterious Stranger]

Just wondering, is sand veil Garchomp Smogon leagal?

It's not. Sand Veil and Snow Cloak are banned.

[Zachmac]

It's not. Sand Veil and Snow Cloak are banned.

Which also means you can't use Sand Veil Cacturne/Sandslash.

But honestly, I was swept by a pretty new play just because none of my attacks were hitting their darn cacturne before...I'm rather glad those abilities are banned. And without it, Garchomp doesn't worry me at all either.

And my Jellicent handles it pretty well. I just have to switch it into a Flamethrower.

This is a great quote

Its actually a legit website. Also I'm pretty sure that Kennedy was just trolling us due to some of the things that were said in the channel, telling us that Garchomp will go UU, not knowing who Psycho Cut was, just to name a few things

Welcome on board I like how you have a good grasp of your strengths and weaknesses, definitely makes it easier to improve. I agree, multi battling is so fun xD I almost wish that one year they'd use that as the battle format for the VGC instead of just regular double battles... Since they do double battles /every year/ anyways....

I hate you Cobalion. You are an absolute disgrace. Afte S-resetting for two days for shiny, and giving up so i can continue my White 2 first run-through, and catch you this happens.

Earth power and HP-grass from Seismitoad gets you down to one-Hp, false swipe to double check, then thunder wave for paralysis. Then you make me use every pokeball i have until i am down to an extra Pokeball i didnt use from the beginning of the game, my master ball and a timer ball. Throw the timer ball, three saheks and nothing, throw the pokeball for sh*ts and giggles and you decide to be caught. I hate you so very much right now Cobalion.

On a different note, iv discovered catching your entire team very early leads to much higher levels.     Spoiler:- levels:

Show Spoiler

 
My Emboar is fifty as of the exit of reversal mountain, my Seismitoad is 49 as of the exit of Route 13 and everyone else (Scolipede, Braviary, Electivire, Zoroark) are all 46. So in conclusion, catch your pokemon early and get them all to fifty before you battle Drayden if you want to wipe the floor with him via Emboar style
 

No way really? xD I just beat Drayden with all of my team in the 40-41 range and had little trouble... Also I caught my Cobalion in a regular pokeball too 8D though I was trying for that LOL

Yeah, Heatran does sound like a good fix... it's just he doesn't really fit well on my current team :[

Actually, I just realized this, but Genesect is kinda like Excadrill, in the sense that they're really hard and annoying to counter, but it's really fun to use them.

Lol, that was a really short burst.

Haha really? xD I joined Comp battling after Excadrill was already banned so I don't even know. But yeah... So much Genesect! lol

[ShowMeTheMankey]

Greetings homies, have I missed much?

[mcdanger]

yes mankey, yes you have
i feel comparing genesect to excadrill is like apples and oranges, genesect has higher stats, a wider movepool, better typing and more over all versatility, while excadrill did only 1 thing and had 1 real set maybe a spinner one like sandslash
i cant wait till PO changes their tiers so sand veil is gone and i can use my garchomp :C

[ShowMeTheMankey]

Chomp is broken with or without sand veil. If it's reintroduced purely because of the fact that sand veil will be banned is just ridiculous and ******** and stupid and not a good thing to do and I have clearly run out of adjectives a while ago

[Sheps]

Still not sure whether to use genes ect or counter him on a new team. Speaking of excadrill. I'm surprised there aren't more sand genes ect. I mean correct me if I'm wrong but sand can't do anything but help it right?
