That's okay. A lot of people confuse Dutch with German :P

They have to bare the brunt of not seeing my profile in it's full glory.

Haha it's Dutch, actually.

Told you ;D.
I wish Fixed-Width themes didn't mess it up so badly.

Oh, I'm using Pichu2, maybe try using that and my profile will look normal to you.

Probably, what theme are you using?

Thanks, I kind of wish everyone could see it like I do ;(.

Yeah, I know, fixed width/small monitors kind of kill my profile, but maybe you can enjoy it in a fluid width theme.

Those are some pretty cute drawings there Phin. I like that Mence a lot! You're certainly well on your way!

Hm. Everybody's changing profile pics already?

Hahaha I'm glad :) lmao by any chance did you get your bulky dd set from capefeather's smogon analysis like me? I rly just wanted to know how it worked out for you lol

Hehehe, your coloring is totally cute. Latios was holding flowers in my original drawing, but, that's okay. If you ever feel like playing around with my other art, feel free.

Gardevoir is terrible even without it, and everyone uses sleep clause anyways. Heracross is alright, but really isn't a great Pokemon, it's somewhat viable, but there are better Pokemon out there. It's best attribute is that its STAB is extremely hard to resist, but its stats are pretty lackluster, aside from its attack.

Well the first step is to figure out what Pokemon are viable in competitive play, Gardevoir certainly isn't and Heracross is eh. I really suggest just reading analyses, articles and teams at Smogon to get an idea of how things work.

Mysidia is pretty easy but isn't active enough and people used unreleased things, PBC is somewhat easy to ladder on, but they use different tiers than Smogon, same goes for the PO Beta Server. Smogon is the only server out of the 3 that uses the same tiers as us, but is easily the hardest to ladder on, I don't intend to be mean, but at your skill level, you'll be hard pressed to break 1100.

This might give you an explanation. Basically you go play on a large server and battle to increase your ranking.

I didn't really count, I assume I beat a few people since I was laddering.

I think I do have to worry about college, it's always been my goal to get into one.

Yeah, go for it man, I can't color so it's all yours.

Lemme see the Aggron drawing!

Haha you'll be the first to know once it's finished lol :)
