This will never end. Thanks to that parahax with Skarmory, this just won't end, Blissey against Blissey like this.
 
i know, i guess i dont want a rematch after this...
this is going to take forever.
we'll just have our rematch later.
its weird, i killed more of your pokemon than usual but i battled terribly this time.
i think this was the least exciting battle weve ever had...
:\

Well, I'm out of moves.

Too boring.

I'm just gonna run, you can take the win. I was banking on Stone Edge NOT KOing Starmie.

God damn do I hate hax. Skarmory could have sealed the deal, but nope! Had to be paralyzed, what, three times in a row?
 
Ill battle you Richard info in sig

Nah, sorry, but I'm done with battles for tonight.

The last battle wiped me out. I LOATH when it comes down between Blissey vs. Blissey. Shame on me for thinking Agiligross could outrun Aerodactyl.

Maybe tomorrow. I know I have BIG on my waiting list, so be sure to check in sometime after 4:00pm, EDT. I'm sure I'll be around!

Oh, PS: Sir Beasty, does your Starmie have Psychic? If it's your starter, it should... Rapid Spin works (I assume that's what you have), but Psychic OHKOs Gengar, and if your Starmie is Timid, then no Gengar stands a chance, unless it holds Focus Sash.
 
yeah, it has psychic.
i planned too far ahead and thought you were gonna switch out cause you knew i was gonna use psychic.
haha.
too much overpredicting...

Hell, I know that feeling all too well.

Here's a story for ya:

A while ago I went up against a team with DD Gyarados and Electivire. I sent out Metagross, my usual DDGyara killer (as you saw), he survived an Earthquake and got an agility in. *I* predicted a switch to Electivire to absorb the ThunderPunch and get the Speed boost. So in essence, I predicted a prediction. So I used Earthquake, expecting to see that little bugger Electivire smiling at me... but nope. Earthquake missed Gyara, and Metagross was taken down.

I often wonder... was that choice an act of brilliance, or just plain stupidity? :P
 
thats really depressing!
haha.
i hate when i overpredict!
it seems like everytime i battle you, i end up over predicting.
thats the fun of the game though to me.
i love battling you cause im always trying to figure out what your gonna do next!
youre one tricky little devil!
haha!
:)

i cant wait for our next battle richard,
i hope it doesnt end up so boringly.
i actually hope you win next time,
it doesnt feel right when i win...
i actually think i prefer losing to you.
haha.

farewell richard steel, until next time.
:)

haha, well thank you! I've always believed that it's not the Pokemon you use, but rather how you use them. For example, anyone could pull off a Garchomp. Two rules for Garchomp: avoid Ice, and kill. But a Claydol, rather, is a bit more in depth with how you can use him, with his truly unique typing. He's not like Skarmory or Blissey in the wall department, where you just switch in. You gotta know what your enemy is packing before sending Claydol out. And I think people tend to have trouble with mine simply because he's not common, so it's more difficult to take down. Everyone else on my team is way OU, but Claydol remains a key player in my team, and he works to throw people off every now and again with his truly awesome defenses. And no matter how bad his attacks are, I truly think you can never say no to a STABed Earthquake.

And pish posh to the second paragraph! We all lose, and we all win. The only instance I dislike accepting a loss is when it's due to hax. And I dislike accepting a win because of hax. But on several occasions, I've truly been out-predicted, overpowered, or just plain massacred. So I'm in no way automatically worthy of a win, by no means! At the beginning of every battle, it's anyone's game. Just depend on how you play it. Simple as that. :)
 
its so true, i dont think anyone could pull off claydol the way you do.
you really understand your pokemons weaknesses and strengths.
i keep trying all these new pokemon to see which ones i like...
i hope one day i can find a team i truly understand the way you understand yours.
i dont think im gonna battle you until i find my perfect team, so farewell richard.
i look forward to our next battle.
i know its gonna be a good one!
:)
 
Richard, after hearing from good ole Sir Beastly, you must really know you're Claydol. I've never used one before, but as you know, I am interested. May I trouble you in a practice match tommorrow-or this morning, if like me, you are running EST. I need to learn how to use Claydol myself, and what better way to learn than a live example.

Oh, of course! I have work tomorrow from 10:30 - 3:00 (yeah, it's nearly 4am here... I'm gonna be dead tomorrow, damn my insomnia), but after that I'm wide open. Claydol's an awesome Poke, and one of my top favorites, so I hope you enjoy using him! Hit me up tomorrow sometime when you see me on, it's beddy bye time for moi right now.

Oh, and Sir Beasty:

I'll be looking forward to our next match more than you will be! Just to let you know, I expect nothing less from you than a match to end all matches. ;) Until then, take care!
 
he must have improved a lot because unless i remember wrong i beat him pretty easily twice.

get lots of rest richard cuz i'll want to battle you tomorrow.

i was talking about jibby/sir beasty.

and i did beat him twice at the time. make that 3 times because i battled him again last night and won yet again. he's improved but his team didn't match up very well against my team. i was just kind of surprised he gave richard a run for his money since richard's one of the best I've battled. :P
