who hasn't used the word killing instead of fainting before? Sometimes I feel kinda awkward using the word "faint" to describe a beaten pok?mon, so I just say "lost the battle" instead...
Like most people already stated in this thread, seeing, "______ is the best pok?mon ever!" is really annoying. Especially when the _____ is occupied by something like Charizard, Mewtwo, Mew, Blaziken, Pikachu, Lugia, Ho-oh, Celebi. Those pok?mo are all certainly strong, but they can all be easily beaten by the correct pok?mon. That's why I've always steered away from those archetypical pok?mon and showed preference for the ones pok?mon strategists call annoyers. Like Crobat.
