    Haha, that's true too XD Yeah, that doesn't solve much either. They could both move on perhaps, sometimes particular opponents have trouble connecting with wifi and they just get shuffled in the next round.

    Speaking of which...Flare/Wolf I apologize for what I said earlier that we were waiting on you. Where are Zam/dewey!? :P

    • No worries, Mukka, aragorn will guaranteed show up right when he needs to battle. In this case, since new pairings go up this Saturday, he'll probably reappear soon enough to defeat all of us. XDD

    As for Gunners, he just posted in a trade thread...so if _Prince_ can't find him, he's definitely avoiding the match ha.

    Yeah, and it's been a while since I've seen Zam online... March 23rd, 2009 03:35 PM

    Well, maybe not so long. xD     ​

    Actually, make that right now. XD

    Yeah, sorries, school and Platinum has been keeping me away from here lately. So, I see FinalFlare and Dark Wolf have had a number of problems with connecting. And as Volkner mentioned, this has happened before in the 3rd Tournament, where I allowed both people to move on. This is what I'll do in this case, though I'll also be taking both of you out of the running for any future free rounds. Sounds fair? ^_^

    And of course, all I need to do now is to pwn dewey. Whenever you're ready to lose, I'll be ready to win! :D

    • Well, we're still waiting on two battles in the regular tourney, one of which is mine. *sweatdrop*

    I've sent dewey a few messages over the last 48 hours, and I hope we can find a time to battle tonight, or at the latest tomorrow.

    Regardless, I have to go to work soon so I cannot make up Round Three until I come back. That'll be in about 10 hours from now, at 3:00 PM GMT. Sorries for the little wait. *sweatdrops*

    EDIT: Apparently I double posted without realizing. *quotes earlier post here and deletes it*

    Well, guess what has just been brought to my attention by _Prince_: apparently Platinum has a little glitch. >_<

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pH0ohPZJiM

    So basically, if a fleeing Pokemon in Platinum is KO'd from Pursuit during weather, "Acid Rain" will start to fall, which basically results in double, triple, or quadruple Sandstorm damage(in Sandstorm, Sun, or Hail, respectively) until the weather is changed.

    So, I expect there may be a few of you battling here with Platinum, so I think it'd be best to make you aware of the problem. Should any of you face this little glitch in our future battles, please just let me know, and any action that results will be decided on a case-by-case basis, until the guys over at Smogon decide on what to do about it. I think an "Acid Rain Clause" will do it, but that's just me. XD

    Hopefully this won't be a problem, heh.

    Ban Pursuit simple like I stated earlier to you. Unless people really wanna play around with a messed up glitch and certainly is gonna have a big impact in a battle.

    • im fairly certain that pursuit glitch is only for the japanese versions of plat. that video was a jap version played with an english patch. so pursuit should be fine.

    Nah, it's REAL, this glitch is in the US platinum too.

    Saddly, It's more like a Glitch Field. Pursuit isn't the only thing activating the multi killing weather affects.

    Not sure how the trickroom one works, I'd post the link but I can't
    Activating the pursuit one is easy, make sure you are the host who's gonna be using pursuit against a fleeing pokemon (it must KO to activate the glitch), one of the weather effects have to be in play.

    Deweey is right actually. its only in the Jap rom that that happened, everything works fine with a proper game cart. Either that or now every game cart does it

    • Okay, I hope that's right. Regardless, Japanese cartridges are allowed here, so still be aware of this if you intend to use one.

    And thanks to the database errors earlier, Round Three shall be coming an hour later than I originally stated. But no worries, it will be up very shortly.

    EDIT: And shortly has come! :D

    dewey & myself: As I've done with others in this situation, I'll be allowing this battle a few more days.
    Gunners & _Prince_: I am giving _Prince_ the win by DQ based off of your activity, Gunners. But hey, if you two can find each other this weekend and battle, just let me know. ^_^
    Everyone in Uberz: Well, you guys are in the Semi-Finals so I do not want to disqualify two of you based off of activity. I'll give you another week to get it done before I'll be forced to do just that though.

    And now, for the next round:

    Tournament 7 Pairings

    Round Three

    Team Earth

    dewey/Alakazam17 VS aragornbird

    Mukkamoto VS FinalFlare

    junoliv VS Ooka

    Dark Wolf VS Ito_Igami

    _Prince_ VS Volkner's Apprentice

    IcePyro VS Aurafire

    As you can see, Teams America and Europe have now been merged into Team Earth. And oh yay, I get aragornbird this time around-or dewey does, but as I said before I'm going to make sure that doesn't happen! So, you have another two weeks to get your battles in, with the deadline being Saturday, April 11th, 2009. Good luck! :D​

    Orly? Has anyone tried following my steps I've posted before.

    Activating the killer weather effects by pursuit:
    1: Make sure you are the host who's gonna be using pursuit against a fleeing pokemon
    2: It must KO to activate the glitch
    3: one of the weather effects (I.e standstorm) must be be in play.
