Nubers without ubers are just noobs.
So anyway, today they let us play without legendaries. And it was a BIG difference. one trainer I played, five of his pokemon were weak to ground type moves. Swampert used earthquake on him three times, and then I had won. Most of these people are nothing without a bunch of legendaries.
|
Thank You. I Hate Noobs Whose Whole Team Relies On Ubers. Take That Away, Their Nothing. Then They Think They Are Great Trainers, All While Using Ubers.
|
I did meet a few good ones up there, though. I found out from one battle that I need a better pokemon with fire moves. These Bronzong and Metagross are killing me. didn't help I actually ended up battling him twice, so that was two losses on my docket.
|
Ah, what a shame. Well, they just don't make noobs like they used to.
|
A good chunk of my battles were pretty easy, though. I still can't get over that one guy trying to use thunderbolt on a swampert.
|
Hehe, most n00bs won't know the elemental chart will make improper generalizations.
It's a glorious, new, legendary-free age for us competitive trainers! :D |
So, they banned the use of legendaries?
That's kind of dumb, they should make it so that there's two different leagues, one with legendaries and one without. If they don't want us to use legendaries competitively they shouldn't have put them in the game. I understand that legendaries are a kind of pokemon on steroids, and should not be used constantly, but they have a place. Also, I would like to say, that some of the combinations in DP surprised me, like Empoleon being water/steel and Infernape being fire/fighting (well, I kind of expected it that they would be that), it was very interesting how they tossed up the original rock/paper/scissors style of play. |
Legendaries are really only there as rewards for completing story arcs. <.<;
|
What good is the reward if you can't use it?
|
They're trophies. Trophies you can use for not much more than to sweep in-game trainers and the Elite Four.
|
Hey, I feel bad now, I didn't use any legendaries when I beat the elite 4. I even took deoxys off my team.
|
Well, it really doesn't matter what you use to beat in-game enemies, as long as you win. It's when doing any serious PvP battling that legendaries become a no-no. :P
|
I still want to make a team of 'cute legendaries' uxie, mew, mespirit, azelf, manaphy, and celebi.
I don't expect to go anywhere with them, they're all psychic which means it's easily picked apart. But I think it'd be funny. |
I'm glad to hear that a ban on ubers is happening .
It get's old when you face uber teams because it could mean a very slim chance on winning. |
I still think that there should be an arena where ubers are allowed.

i hate uppers my brother used a full team of uppers aginst me but i but them all to sleep uppers are no use in front of ev's
|
If you want an uber tier competition, organize an unofficial tourney of ubers for yourselves in D/P, or something.
|
This is an Uber ban and not a Legendary ban, right? They've banned just Ubers before, so I hope that's the case. I REALLY want to use a Cresselia once I get this game.
|
As if it makes a difference. Legendaries altogether should be banned, whether they are or not at this point.

As I've said before, I consider legendaries nothing more than trophies for completing story arcs you can use to sweep the in-game trainers and the Elite Four.
|
ppl who use a full team of untraind legends are lazy to train they don't want to go hunt for electrizer and evo a elekid to breed then go get the right nature and than ev train him this would take a while but it well pay of at the end i breeded about 60 ralts to get a female modest one
|
I went through around 120 eggs each when I was breeding Staryu and Roselia, lol.
|
You guys know what? People use ubers for a reason.
Not everyone has the patience to EV train or buy TM's and crap. Not everyone feels like ogling at stats and natures. Some people want to play the game. Not everyone bought the game to do a lot of complicated math and stuff. So stop saying whoever uses ubers are n00bs. They're as much of pokemon players as any of you. |
And some of us want to win. :D Don't have the patience? Don't count on winning against players like us. This is a game of stats, natures, movesets, and elements. If you can't accept that, stick to fighting in-game trainers and other wannabes.
|
if they can't train than why would they buy the game in the first place? it's like geting a pool with out swimming in it
|
XDDD, nice simile, and a valid point. :P

You can't always blaim your loss at battles on the opponent. It could be partly your fault for having crappy pokemon. And dark mudkib, people buy the game to have fun. Ever heard of fun? Oh, my bad, I forgot, you're all too busy figuring out EV's, IV's and natures to even play the damn game at all. My mistake :) |

Don't you dare try to single out one line and try to make me look stupid. And yes, they are pokemon players. They turn on their DS and play the game, don't they?! |
no i am not busy at all i have lots of free time while breeding i go in tall grass for capturing any thing that might be good after i hatch 6 eggs i come back agin to the day care man get 6 eggs and go some where like the great marsh

You take a hunk pf pixels so seriously. So you're telling me, you actually sit down and actually put thought into the game? Must I remind you, Pokemon is a video game! It doesn't require as much work as you're giving it. And you say winning is fun. Duh, it is fun, but you have to lose sometime as well. And you can't get pissed at those people anyway. It's not like they know people don't like their team. I also just noticed something else. You guys only notice my posts when I disagree with someone. If I agreed with all of you, you guys would ignore me as usual, and shove me aside like an idiot. News! I'm not an idiot. |
But the fact that I am giving it such serious consideration - something about 1/3 of all PokeCommunity does - is what makes us better gamers and better Pokemon trainers. You seem to play games for the sake of playing. WE play for the competition, the strategy, and the thrill of victory.

I don't play Pokemon "for the sake of playing". I play it because I enjoy it. Winning IS NOT everything. You obviously fail to realize that. And Abyssion, the first part of this post applies to you too. I'm sick of you arrogant people thinking you're oh so much better than people because you put too much thought into a video game. And also, don't think just because you've been here longer than I, that you can just come up here and make fun of me. I will report you, boy. |
you don't know any thing b cuz you never tried wining with full rised team

Since you seem to hate EV training, I quite doubt that. Mine's in my profile. :P

Yeah, point that one out to me so I can beat him down next, 'cause that ain't me. :P

you must be nuts to think that you can beat ichida ev traind team most ppl who battled him ended up losing every thing

Fine. I usually play fair - meaning without legendaries - but I have a Mewtwo counter in the wings.

You have some too, put it to good use. |
I picked Free Battle to prove to you mine were fully trained, but I'll gladly do a lv100 battle afterwards, since you'll blame your loss on my high levels. :P

Someone will record this, yes? >.>
|
I ain't recordin' it.
You take a wild guess. EDIT: DAMN it, I accidentally ran... |
ya i must see a battle lik this to prove the power of ev's ichida if you can record it than thanks in advance
|
I would, had my camera a battery.
|
Quote:
I pressed the wrong button and ran. I am not trying to lie either, it's true. |
Lol, accidently ran. Meh, accidents happen.
Someone find a way to record it. This might be an epic battle. |
yaaaaaaay i want to see this battle it must be great to watch it i well love seeing him lose in OHKO
|
Quote:
Yeah, I was using my finger instead of the stylus, and thought I hit the move button, but i hit the run button. |
You do it something like this:
Chimchar used Flamethrower Gyarados used Waterfall Chimchar faints Trainer sent out Slugma ...and so on. I've done it once, and it's not that annoying to do. |
Yea, that happened to me once. I was trying to get a Shiny Dialga, and found one, yet I accidently pressed run since I lost like 3 stylus and still needed one. I actually was trying to press bag. >.>
Lesson: Never use your finger as a replacement for a stylus. |
Quote:
If I find a shiny Dialga on teh GTS, I'll trade it to you. |
whats wrong with ichida? it seems like he is going to post a long post if he is taking all this time to post
|
Quote:
I lost. He is a good battler though. |
*dramatic explosion and fanfare* Victory, 2-0! Not bad, for using Mewtwo. One of my more challenging wins. So, now you've witnessed my power, and do you still disagree with our methods?
|
Quote:
I want a rematch ASAP. And I don't agree nor disagree. I just go with it. |
Maybe sometime after my heartbeat slows back down. XD.

Did you like my Mewtwo's nickname? |
see? ichida ev traind team killed your mewtwo i told you that upper are nothing in front of ev's
|
"Steve?" That's not a nickname, it's an attempt to get people to laugh so much they drop their guard. :P
|

Quote:
It was actually a pretty close battle. And what's an "upper"? |
dark means ubers most likely, but how the hell you can mispell ubers as uppers? dark mudkib does have a point though. A pokemon with a decent EV spread can stand upto or be better than legendary pokemon.
|
Wish I'd been able to record that, though. My voice would have been a bother anyways. I get very vocal during battles, whether I'm winning or losing. :P
|
but he won alright soo ev's rule the *upper*(i like to call them uppers)pokemons yay and ichida did you get the vid?
|
No, my camera's battery is currently dead. It was pretty close though. For a sec I didn't expect my Z to be faster than his 'raptor.

I still have you as LOSER on my Pal Pad (just so I don't delete j00 when my pal pad gets full) |

I am amazed a topic I started just to avoid more whining BS about PBR actually took off.
|
Actually, it turns out that ubers are still a part of it, because it's just a glitch. Apparently just rebuilding your trainer card will allow you to use ubers.
|
Wow. Gone for a few hours and look what happens. Anyway, Ichida has another win on his record, not a surprise.
|
I'm currently rebreeding my staraptor. it's nice, but needs a bit more work. ALso have plans for a snorlax.
Though to be perfectly honest, I know how to bring out the max potenetial of a pokemon, but I have no clue about team synergy. |
Synergy? Whats that? Team co-operation?
|
Having pokemon that form a team strategy, instead of just being their own little stand alone. a team that works together nicely is better than one that doesn't, because one that doesn't more than likely will find itself conflicting.
my problem is coming upwith a team strategy. so far all I'm thinking is "Special sweeper, physical sweeper, special sponge, spinning spiker. The rest, I have yet to decide. |
You should do a physical wall. I don't know the best ones, but I've heard of Cloyster, Swalot, etc. Cloyster is dead against special attacks though.
|
Skarmory's a good Physical wall and Snorlax is a good wall all around, depending on the EVs.
