Richard Steel's Battle Stadium

Well, I could say a little about hax as well, I could have used stone edge and not missed, and with a high crit. ratio it might have killed your Blissey then, and starmie would have killed most of everything else.

Earthquake from an Adamant Choice Band Dugtrio is a 2KO on Blissey 99% of the time (granted you don't get unlucky with damage calculations). I don't know why you used Stone Edge. If you had used Earthquake, Blissey would have been dead no matter what, I would think, unless I got really clever with how I timed Wish. I didn't make you use Stone Edge. Even if that last one did hit and did critical hit, it wouldn't have KOed Blissey.

And if that was the case, Claydol from full health would have survived enough to KO Starmie with his awesome defenses.

The fact that I went from 5 Pokemon against 2 to being beaten 2-0, the sole reason being double hax in a row (uber hax), says something. It says you won because of luck. If you had swept me with Starmie after you KOed Blissey with Dugtrio, fine by me. But I don't lose like this. No one should lose like this.
 
I still remembered that STARMAN actully surived that Metagross's Thunderpunch. That was ace!

Yeah, that one took me off guard. I don't think I've ever seen a Starmie survive a Thunderpunch before. And just the amount of damage she did to Metagross surprised me too. Is yours Modest? Truth be told, I got a bit arrogant in trying to throw in an Agility, when I should have Thunderpunched and switched. But eh, we learn from our mistakes. And I've been in that situation before, so I thought I had a chance.

I've never actually run the damage calculations for the situation, and I'm far too lazy to get the job done, so I'm assuming I got really unlucky with the damage calculations. It's like when Blissey survives two Adamant CB Dugtrio Earthquakes. It's rare, but it happens if you get at least 50% or below damage for every hit (taking into account her Leftovers).
 
Well, unfortunatly, my Dugtrio is Jolly, although I did want to get around to getting another one.

Oh, really? Then your Dugtrio was screwed either way, because from a Jolly Dugtrio, Earthquake is a three KO. I hit yours with a Seismic Toss on the way in, and he would have been KOed before Blissey was KOed. But then it would have left her open to be KOed somewhere else. If only I still had Ice Beam on her! I may have to get a new TM. I was only running Thunder Wave because I wanted to try out Choice Band on my Metagross, and CB Metagross being able to outrun you is frightening as all hell. But I'm not impressed with CBgross. But Starmie with Choice Specs! Now THAT'S a keeper. Surf from CS Starmie almost OHKOs Metagross with Surf, when it usually does 50% or less. Only problem is I lose my Rapid Spinner, and Dugtrio has to be replaced. But Starmie makes a bad Rapid Spinner in general. Claydol and Donphan get my award for best Rapid Spinners. Forretress too, although he's a bit old school (as is Claydol, come to think of it).

But most of my dealings with Choice items goes to waste up against someone who likes to abuse Focus Sash... I've been thinking of replacing Spikes with Stealth Rock JUST to hit everyone switching in. Focus Sash on Gengar scares more than enough members of my team.
 
Fancy a rematch Richare ... and i wont let your starmie rip me to shreds this time
 
richard .. are u up for battles at the moment? if so id like one =]

I've recently landed a job at Barnes & Noble, and along with my new-found Chemistry major, my time will be heavily limited. Probably the weekends will be my big days, along with a few late night battles. Sadly, I have some work to do tonight still... so possibly tomorrow night, if you're on. My apologies!
 
oh no worries richard .. i kno ur a pretty busy person so ill most probably post on ur thread for a battle on the weekend =]
 
Oh man, your buried in work now? I had no idea, and I've been bothering you all week on AIM too. haha sorry about that. Well, now I know.

haha, not in the least! If I'm on AIM, it usually means I'm not doing any work. And that's actually the best way to contact me, through AIM, for anyone who wants a battle. Normally if I'm on AIM (not my mobile, mind you, actually signed in) it means I'm open for battles.
 
Am I the only one who hasn't been able to log on here for tons of days, well anyways, Richard, I guess you're really busy but I finally got that website bought and have a layout for it. Well, remember, "always a place for you"
