Chit-Chat: Welcome to the Strategies & Movesets forum for Sun & Moon!

If you have participated (not neccessarily won) in at least 3 matches, you should already have a place in the rankings, it will just be something like 999999th place. At least, that's what I think they mean from the way it's written there. So why trade something valuable for it, when the competition practically gives it to you for free?

I already made myself a team for it before I properly read the [Participation Gift] properly, so yeah, I guess I should just participate for at least three times. ^^

Battled my friends again.

Today I found in horror that my full stall team was placed against an opposing stall team. After 50 minutes of rapid spinning, roosting, heal belling and toxic stalling neither of us could gain any ground whatsoever. Eventually we just started seeing who had the most PP.

College Pokemon battles can be so annoying. Maybe I should put a heavy hitter or two in my team.

Yah thats why its good to have a win condition on your stall team or use no skill bs Gothitelle. :\

Yeah,stall wars are one of the few reasons I don't run stall too often, I mean I can use it effectively, but I just prefer more offensive teams. That and I just hate teambuilding for stall most of the time.

Just showing up this, Just look at some abilities!. Adaptability Mega Latios.

I read up to where he said that Mega Alakazam gets pure power, and then I thought it was this real

 

[destinedjagold]

Meh, according to whoever posted there, it was a joke, and the community decided to ride along with the joke. xD

It is located in their [Pet Mods] section as well...

I never pretended this was real. That was the rest of the community. If anyone thought those slapdash scans I made with a video game language were real, that's on them, not me.

Edit: And it was pretty funny actually.

 

[halcyonic]

lol ogod imagine if the abilities changed every gen x-x competitive 3hard5me

All these talk about stall teams makes me think of the short time I played and watched in Generation III (and to a smaller extent, IV) back in 2005-2007. Stall teams don't seem like something i'd want to use since they can make things go really long-winded.

Aw man, was looking forward to some of these guys flipping the table on the meta. Oh well.

 

[Alfieri]

I'm glad HA won't be changing every generation. I would have dropped competitive battling as fast as I dropped Yu-Gi-Oh with all the changing regulations and bans and such.

 

[Dark Azelf]

^ Yeah, Stall is goddamn boring. I can't even play semi-stall, To be honest. Sure, Takes a lot of skill, But I'm not the kind of player who likes to say "Look, I wall you hard with toxic and Protect. GG noob"

As opposed to "<insert dumb sweeper with 150+ offenses used Tackle> Mega steelix lost 100% of its health". I dont find that fun.

Stall vs stall doesnt have to last along time. There are such things as quick stall and semi stall and momentum stall. Plus you should really have one or two win conditions on your own stall team and slap on Taunt or w/e.

what is quick stall pls explain

 

[Polar Spectrum]

Stall is the greatest,

only ability I ever use on Sableye

 

[Polar Spectrum]

lol it's just a joke mate-

about that signature ability sableye has that's pretty terrible, which is called Stall.

Literally the ability's name is "Stall".

*joke dying noisily*

 

[Nah]

Quick stall sounds like one hell of an oxymoron.

 

[Polar Spectrum]

The quickest stall I can think of is something involving an eviolite Dusclops with Pressure, that knows trick room spite and pain split.

And I have a feeling it's not that.

This is an interesting topic though. Elf we be waitin mate - WHAT IS THIS QUICK STALL

 

[Yoshikko]

I'm starting to feel like 6 slots is not enough lol :(
