Ah! My Wi-Fi is finally working, and I want to have an actual, full-length battle with you! You up to it, Richard?

Of course!

I'm currently watching Little Miss Sunshine, but I can pull a few strings. ;)

I'll be on WiFi shortly!

(PS: I think it was my WiFi that cut out in our last battle... hopefully that won't happen again.)
 
Aww, I just turned on my DS and the light is red...

Can we battle in, like, five minutes so I can let it charge a little?

Man, I was all excited, too...

haha, sure, sure!

I'll be waiting on WiFi, so just whenever you get on I'll invite.
 
Okay, I've nabbed my DS after letting it charge. Going online NOW!

Oy, my batteries are blinking red, and you send out a Blissey. Perfect. >_>

Anyways, I honestly did much better than I thought I would. 0-4 loss is still pretty bad, but you're a terrific battler, where as I'm still semi-new to the competitive scene. Either way, excellent match, especially with my super-cool hax of Will-O-Wisp missing twice. I'm amazing.

haha, and the critical hit against Starmie! Nothing sucks worse than Will-O-Wisp or Hypnosis missing the first round. Well... one thing does suck more: Will-O-Wisp or Hypnosis missing the second round too.

Anyways, it was a good battle! You should give your Ludicolo Leach Seed (unless he does and you just didn't want a stall war?), so Blissey doesn't have a right to wall him. There are very few Pokemon my team, as a whole, fears. Leach Seed Ludicolo is one of them. He has a typing that's not easily countered.

If you should ever want to rethink some of your Pokemon's movesets, be sure to PM me and I'll help ya out. From the looks of it, you've got a solid team. My suggestion is just to learn when to switch, and try to out-predict your opponent.

I remember somebody built a team JUST to counter mine. It had Magnezone among many others. I sent out Skarmory, and then immediately the next turn sent out Dugtrio. EVs and Pokemon don't win battles; strategy and prediction does. ;)
 
Well, my Ludi is special and doesn't have Leech Seed. I know, that's like a Poke-blasphemy. In fact, he doesn't even have the usual Energy Ball. He has Giga Drain. Most people say it's a no-no, but it's gotten me out of soooo many jams. Coupling it with Shell bell, I've been at low health, used it, and been back to near-full health. Yeah, it's different, but that's what I love. However, your Blissey isn't the first to wall it, and it probably won't be the last... Perhaps Leech Seeding is my only option...

Almost forgot about the Crit. on Starmie... However, my 'Terra was sleeping for quite a few turns... I don't think it did ever end up waking up... It must've been making up for the Will-O-Wisp missing... :)

Yeah... Leech Seed makes it virtually impossible to wall anything for Blissey. Maybe a Substitute Blissey would be in order for that. XD

And yeah, your 'Terra did take quite a long nap. I should have just switched to Starmie and gotten him done with, but I'm always wary of a Pokemon waking up JUST as I send something out (and while Starmie is bulky, she gets dented REALLY bad from an Earthquake, and a Wood Hammer, or something to that extent, would have OHKOed). So I decided to go with a wall switch in, just in case.

Next time we battle I'll be sure to use my second team. I'm very specific when it comes to teams; I use specific types and specific moves, and for the longest time was unsatisfied with almost every other team I made besides the one you just faced. But finally, I have a new one. It's not as rad as my original, but it's pretty damn cool.
 
Well, I look forward to that day.

As of right now, I've got a couple projects of my own, and when they're done, I'll challenge your other team!

Sorry about that, I was AFK.

Anyways, I'd like to do a test battle with the new team I've concocted, so does anyone want to have a go?

Ring me up sometimes. XD

Well I suppose another battle is in order. ;)

Gah at my limited time these days. >.>
 
Well... I haven't battled in a few days. And that's annoying.

I should be open to a few throughout the night, if anyone is daring enough to accept a challenge! (Hey, gotta have some incentive to hook people; apparently a shiny Beldum isn't enough. XD)

Sure, but no ubers. Let me add you quick, and I'll be waiting on WiFi!

EDIT:

Hey chap, just because you got bad hax with missing Hypnosis does NOT give you free right to just disconnect. In fact, you could have just killed Dugtrio right there. And don't try "it was my internet" on me, because it D/Ced right after you missed a third time. Once again, complain about hax all you want, but DON'T disconnect. Jeebus.

Okie dokie, 'Zam, I'm comin' on now!

I'm not too sure what to make of this team quite yet... so this will be fun.

EDIT: Good battle, Zam! I admit I'm not all that familiar with this team yet (and for some reason I forgot Gengar packs Thunderbolt... whoops), so I wasn't completely up to snuff. And I also made some poor decisions. But it got rather intense near the end of the battle! I wasn't sure if Blissey was going to survive Snorlax... but she did! And rarely do I ever see a Special Sweeper take down Blissey 1 on 1 (only time I've seen it happen is Choice Specs Alakazam and Focus Blast, which is around a 2KO on Blissey). And then when you got the critical hit with Psychic... I was gonna be POed if it KOed her.

Anyways, good battle! Blastoise sucks. XD
And Steelix makes far worse a Physical Wall than you'd think with that monster Defense stat.
Oh well!

Oh that was so close! Jeez, if I was a little more friendly to Snorlax, I may have won there....

Yeah, that Snorlax you have is a TANK. I couldn't believe how it absorbed a STAB Tri-Attack from Modest Porygon-Z... even Blissey takes a huge chunk of damage from that one. And Stone Edge from Steelix didn't even break his sub. XD That surprised me.

Anyways, I edited in a response in my last post.

Starmie vs. Blissey is the best example of how futile it is for a special sweeper to go up against the Mighty Pink Blob of Death. haha, Starmie was doomed from the start.

You also got pretty lucky with haxes! That always screws me up. I'm thinking you were trying for a death by parahax. haha
