I thought you might go with Sigilyph first; my memory of it in Unova was as a hell of an annoyance, and I thought Houndoom would be a good match for it. I guessed wrong. Mega Tyranitar did take it out easily later on, but too little too late.
You have to admit the RNG was in your favour, too. Two consecutive paralysis triggers. I knew you were going to switch in a Houndoom opponent and was trying to Roar it right back out, but the RNG hit me hard there, too. Houndoom was a sitting duck.
Yeah, after you made short work of my starting duo I realized I had to make a spot for Tyranitar to get in. U-Turn was the perfect excuse after the Yawn. That Light Screen was just too much to break through, and I knew if Mega Tyranitar could get three of yours out, it might help turn the tide. The burn reduced that to two. Sylveon had taken too much damage and didn't have time to set up, however, after that killer hit right away, so I couldn't use it to its full potential.
If we start quick and don't dilly-dally, I can go ahead You locate me when I appear. :)
It'll be hard to miss me today. {XD}
Oh, and I have to make sure Mawile's been removed. I can't use that Mega any longer, despite my creative usage of it. F*cking Smogon thinking they are the authority. *shrugs* In any case, I put two new team members up, so I can go without it.
I'd like to present my best offensive/defensive combined, so I want to work on some movesets. EV leveling the second will be a cinch since I can evolve quickly; it's just the matter of getting the EVs. I was going to omit it this evening if I did the other battle, but yeah. LOL
Let's see where I am later and if you're still around. If not, definitely Friday. Hold me to it. LOL Since I haven't done any battles lately, I'll break my own one battle per day thing to get you both in. :)
Regardless of what happens, how about we battle tomorrow? I wanted to get that other battle in tonite (otherwise it's waiting until Friday, but she's good with that as she wants to fix some flaws herself), but the fact that I'm here most of tomorrow gives me no excuse to get any other team members ready. And I really want to try a strategy that was used on me with great effect.
I was waiting for you to get back to me. LOL I'm working on a new team member after seeing something in a battle with Polar, but still hedging on the right arrangement and moveset for it. :)
I'm limiting myself to one challenge a day so I can do my other stuff too (Pokémon or otherwise). :) Getting late as well right now. LOL
Krystia spoke up first, so if we can connect tomorrow evening I'll give her priority, and depending on the time I MIGHT be able to do another tomorrow as well. I'm away during the afternoon tomorrow and thus won't be doing much in the morning, either, so evening is the earliest I can for sure be around. Wednesday I'm also away for a while, but earlier in the day. So depending on schedules, I am looking at Wednesday afternoon, more likely evening. But if Krystia is not available I may give you priority if you're online tomorrow. :) Trying to finish the Johto part of the Dex this evening before bed (down to legendaries and evolving a Mantyke, and I think that's it).
Well for me, I came to Pokecommunity for more lively discussions on older aspects of Japanese culture and in general having fun and making more friends, and it looks like I'm doing pretty well so far.
