    That's if the law of averages works out that way for this situation. If it went by the way you said, it would be the equilevant of having 10 marbles, 9 red & one green. If you take one out, & not put it out, your bound to get the green one. However, in this situation, it's like taking a marble, putting it back, & reshuffling. You can do this 10 times, & not get green once.

    As I said, I'm not interested in the mechaics, as a battler,I'd like to not lose a match from one sided hax. Idon't like saying "he got lucky". That's annoying. I understand there is luck in the game, but it shouldn't make the game one sided from the start. Not that it happend this time, however.

    I've been in haxy matches. I'm just saying that the law of averages works out to one in every 10 times it misses. Sometimes it may happen more, sometimes less, but on average, it will one in every ten times, because there is a 10% chance of a miss.

    Well, that's not how it works. It basically works like this -when you use it, it's like reaching in a bag. 9 out of 10 times, you'l get it. Meaning you can use it ten times & never miss. Or, you can use F-Blast 5 times, & miss three.

    I guess you've never been in a haxy match before, then. I'm not asking how it happend, I know the mechanics. I'm pissed that it happens constantly, at the worst moments. Having all your counters to a pokemon miss five times in a row is much worse then missing the occasional WoW. Or having your opponent get a critical hit five times in one match is also very pissy, since there's nothing you ca do about it.

    It will miss one in every ten times. At least it usually hits. I got screwed a couple of times by WoW missing, but it happens.

    No, no in other matches, I lost because a ****ing Leaf Storm missed. How in the hell does that happen?

    Leaf Storm? It was the Fblast missing that completely screwed you. I was amazed that it missed, but it has an accuracy of 70, what do you expect? It will miss now and then.

    That's what pissed me off. I hate those "what would happened if it didn't miss" situations,& it happends too many times. How the **** does Leaf Storm miss, it's only a 10% chance of missing!

    We will never know what would have happened if that Fblast had hit, but it was still a great match and I look forward to facing you again someday.

    Don't get me wrong, your a great battler. My major flaw was using THAT match as a test for Forry. I was VERY pissed to see your team NOT weak to Toxic Spikes. If I had taken that match serioulsy like I should have, I would have used my secret poke. Still, my chances of winning wentout the window after F-Blast missed.

    ? I never said he wouldn't. That's why I said you would have definately won had you not switched. If you did, that's a different story. Unless you had either Gliscor or Weezing, no one else could survive. Maggy is too slow, so Close Combat would remove it. Flygon falls to a SD Extreme Speed. Noir was already dead, I forgot. & everyone else couldn't stand up to it.

    Regardless, we wouldn't had known the outcome, cause that damn move missed.

    Luke would have taken a crapload of damage from T-Bolt, CC weakened or not.

    ? Torterra-Flygon-Magnezone-Tentacruel

    Were the remaining four. Of course, if you hadn't switch, Lucario still has X-speed, so it can handle anything faster. But you said that you wouldn't be dumb enough to leave him, so a free SD. If you hadn't switched, I would have lost for sure. But if you did, & you probably would have, only Gliscor & Weezing are safe switch ins.

    Thanks for outing like my whole team, that was nice. Now that you say it, I probably would have just used him as death fodder, and then send out my final Pkmn that you never saw. Thank god for that cause at least his identity is safe.

    Well, what could you switch into? Dusknoir was weakend, so he was out -Crunch would beat him. Flygon can't handle X-Speed. Tenta was far too weakend to take anything, & Torterra was set up bait. All your pokes were already weakened, so Luke could sweep.

    Besides, I kinda figured you would switch, I was planning on using Swords Dance as you swapped. If I had done that, there would be no hope,or at least, I would have a chance.

    Still, it isn't your fault the hax took place, so don't worry too much about it.

    You think that I am dumb enough to leave Zone in on a Lucario?
