Ikaru

I noticed this just now, since I'm still awake for reasons Ame and Mash are aware of; so allow me to say it: Happy birthday, Knight! :D

I dunno why but I'm thinking Weedle. EDIT: Well if we were actually allowed to look at the card in question I have a different answer xD

[url="http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=80122"]Is my "rage"quit still unjustified, N8?[/url] This is probably the same article Ame mentioned earlier, but, I think I've given it enough time to settle in, rather than an article based solely on hype. [quote]Alright, so, Doryuuzu basically [i]defines[/i] the Gen V metagame. Everything about the metagame revolves around your Doryuuzu sweeping and your opponent's Doryuuzu dying. Pokemon rise and fall from favor just because they check or are beaten by this mole. Just take a look at the below set to get an idea of what he's capable of.[/quote] Still has that very same sentence.

[quote]if anyone can suggest a good defenseive pivot(I dunno, nattorei?) to replace him, that'd be great.[/quote] Disclaimer: I do not work with Smogon, don't say this sucks cause honestly I just put EVs that gave me nice numbers xD Well it's not exactly the best but, in the times I've used Furiijio, its 344 HP and 405 Sp.Def have never been a letdown. The particular one I used was this: [img]http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll193/Ikaru_Kazuna/Everything%20Else/615.gif[/img] Furiijio @ Leftovers Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SDef Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Recover - Ice Breath - Toxic - Light Screen Ice Breath isn't necessarily the best form of offense, but given that it always crits, it's okay to use when you can't do anything else. 105 base speed with no EVs reaches 246 which, isn't bad I guess? Toxicstalling with Recover was my best way of doing damage; just watch out for those physical attacks, 97 defense is nothing to be proud of ._. To give you an idea of the epic special wall that this thing is (while it's no Blissey), it took a choiced Heatran's Fire Blast while Sunny <3 (Sure I couldn't do anything back but meh) I dunno, this is really the only form of wall I've used yet, unless you count the physical wall Kobaruon I paired it with, but, ehh.. [img]http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll193/Ikaru_Kazuna/Everything%20Else/638.gif[/img] Kobaruon @ Leftovers Trait: Justice Heart EVs: 140 HP / 252 Def / 116 Spd Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk) - Reflect - Thunder Wave - Roar - Holy Sword I don't really think I have to explain much here. 358 HP, 392 Def, and 281 speed. Works best if you have Stealth Rock or Spikes or something, but, also works to spread Thunder Wave around if you should choose to be so evil. EDIT: Maybe an RMT sub-forum so we can all have a seperate thread?

EDIT: uhh... /b/? (inb4 rules of the internet)

Kay I guess I waited long enough... Doc is clearly mad, so, no. xD Bullet, I never really liked Chuck Norris jokes, but, that... IS a good example, I suppose. N8, I can agree with this personally having actually used it and swept full teams after two Dragon Dances, so... a winner is you.

dat Hitmonlee... EDIT: Might as well add to this. I got bored one day and turned my endgame team in my Black ROM to a team on PO, right down to the names I used. Comments in purple. [img]http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll193/Ikaru_Kazuna/Everything%20Else/510.gif[/img] Kitty (Reparudasu) (F) @ Focus Sash Trait: Mischievous Heart EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Taunt - Fake Out - Night Slash - Thunder Wave [color="purple"]Lead with Mischievous Heart, need I explain? Everything but Night Slash will have +1 priority, and besides, Thunder Wave fixes that.[/color] [img]http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll193/Ikaru_Kazuna/Everything%20Else/561.gif[/img] Psych (Shinboraa) (F) @ Wide Lens Trait: Tinted Lens EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Hypnosis - Charge Beam - Ice Beam - Psychic [color="purple"]Lots of lenses on this guy... Hypnosis whatever it wants, then either Charge Beam up or throw STAB unresisted Psychics around; Ice Beam when necessary.[/color] [img]http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll193/Ikaru_Kazuna/Everything%20Else/497.gif[/img] Silva (Jarooda) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Overgrow EVs: 252 HP / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Light Screen - Reflect - Leech Seed - Substitute [color="purple"]I told myself, if I was to use Jaroda I would do it differently. So I decided to use it the way everyone was going to BEFORE Perversity was made known: as a dual screener.[/color] [img]http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll193/Ikaru_Kazuna/Everything%20Else/516.gif[/img] Tide (Hiyakkii) (F) @ Salac Berry Trait: Torrent EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Acrobat - Aqua Tail - Substitute - Claw Sharpen [color="purple"]Meet the SubPetaya Empoleon of this generation, only... not. Close enough though. Claw Sharpen on an attack you know you'll survive, or while safely behind a sub, and --due to Claw Sharpen's +Accuracy-- +1 Torrent STAB'd Aqua Tail rages through the opponent's team; base 130 power Acrobat when necessary~[/color] [img]http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll193/Ikaru_Kazuna/Everything%20Else/638.gif[/img] Heart (Kobaruon) @ Leftovers Trait: Justice Heart EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Swords Dance - Holy Sword - Stone Edge - Iron Head [color="purple"]Pretty basic, I only really had this guy cause I needed something to deal with the Dragon Gym in Black.[/color] [img]http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll193/Ikaru_Kazuna/Everything%20Else/637.gif[/img][color="#1A1A1A"][size=1](needs moar animation...)[/size][/color] Atlas (Urugamosu) (F) @ Life Orb Trait: Flame Body EVs: 252 SAtk / 72 SDef / 184 Spd Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Butterfly Dance - Flame Dance - Morning Sun - Bug Buzz [color="purple"]Again, rather basic, except I threw in Morning Sun as a twist, with its boosted Speed, to keep it around longer.[/color]

Another song, this one carries much more relevance than just a name, N8, if you DO see this. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtgMSidl1zU&feature=related"]LIGHTS - "Face Up"[/url] The lyrics are in the description, just... think about it or something, alright?

Then you know what I was going for; Ex Malo Bonum means, more or less, "out of bad comes good". Can you deny that, while bad things happen all too frequently here, some good has come out of it? Why would you leave it behind so easily? Now, if you insist on leaving, that's fine; So long as you know full well EVERYTHING you're leaving, not just the bad.

"May I ask" why you answered the person who caused most of this and blew off the one who's never really involved? .-.

I assume Horizon's about to handle this better than any of us, and I've expressed enough on the server after you left. But N8, if I may leave you with one thing: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mscUtqYHv8"]Translate the name of this song; actual listening is optional.[/url] I'll give you a chance to figure it out first, but, you'll know what I'm going for if you can successfully decipher what that name means. Edit: I see now that the title's a little mixed up; the name of the song is "Miserabile Visu (Ex Malo Bonum)"

I posted that as a joke, go me. xD [u][b]Adequate[/b][/u] [i]~satisfactory ~competent ~sufficient ~capable[/i]

inb4Mashew'sdepression So Cal can have feelings other than hate, I see. And, will the Excessum leaders be able to disrespect you like that, Ame? << >>

[quote](23:41:54) +AmethystStorm: I'm waiitng for me people to tell me where they want to be on it. >.<[/quote] Considering Inuki got me here, I should be near him; wherever he goes, hell if I know. And this business with Horizon being my sister, I really don't mind it, I just love making people think I'm oh so mean~

Mash said I can post this, since it's related to Titania... Makes me all the more anxious to talk to her again, cause honestly I didn't even expect a reply... This was the last night she was on before the whole 5th gen storm came around, I believe; When Mashew quoted Florinia saying Titania was "Cracked." If you ask me, that's what kept the conversation alive after I tried to describe her... ._. [quote](00:31) Ikaru: Not to be annoying or something but, I've been wondering for a while... And nobody's here now so its rather quiet; but, other times, why does it seem like everyone's all against you..? I figured I would ask the OTHER side for once, since all I get out of everyone else is biased opinions... ._. (00:32) Ikaru: No need to answer, but, I honestly don't see any reason why they're so... I dunno the word. (00:35) Ikaru: Immature I guess, given the stupid nicknames they all have for you. >> (00:37) [Reborn]Titania: Okay, look. (00:37) [Reborn]Titania: Protip, boy. (00:37) [Reborn]Titania: If you have to start a message with "not to be annoyning," you probably are. (00:37) [Reborn]Titania: But let me read the rest of it now. (00:37) Ikaru: Noted. (00:38) Ikaru: Figured you have better things to do than listen to some nobody, is all. (00:39) [Reborn]Titania: Why it seems like everyone's against me. (00:39) [Reborn]Titania: Gee, I wonder. Well, it's because they are. (00:39) [Reborn]Titania: Why are they! You might be inclined to ask. Also simple. (00:40) [Reborn]Titania: I'm a cold, broken whore to them. That's all I am to anyone. (00:40) Ikaru: I see. (00:40) [Reborn]Titania: Any... further questions, your honor. (00:40) Ikaru: For what it's worth, you've given me no reason to think so; I was just wondering that... (00:41) Ikaru: You seem proud enough of yourself for all of them though. (00:41) [Reborn]Titania: Proud? (00:41) Ikaru: And, no more questions, you can leave if you were going to. (00:41) Ikaru: err, wrong choice of words, my bad.. (00:41) Ikaru: um.. (00:42) [Reborn]Titania: Just stop. (00:42) Ikaru: Secure enough...? I'm not sure. (00:42) Ikaru: Alright then. (00:42) [Reborn]Titania: Even worse. (00:42) [Reborn]Titania: Fuck. (00:42) Ikaru: Now that I know both sides, I have nothing more to say. (00:42) [Reborn]Titania: I can't stand Florinia. (00:42) [Reborn]Titania: She's dull, emotionless, because she knocked out any feeling. People call me cold, but she makes me look like the fucking sun. (00:42) Ikaru: Understandable, I just met her today and she's... (00:42) [Reborn]Titania: But the worst part. (00:43) [Reborn]Titania: Is that she's right. (00:43) Ikaru: Yeah, you pretty much got it. (00:43) [Reborn]Titania: I'm cracked. (00:43) [Reborn]Titania: I act tough. Mashew got that much. (00:43) [Reborn]Titania: But I'm a bleeding heart. (00:43) Ikaru: Tough was what I was going for before, sorry. (00:43) [Reborn]Titania: And I will dye the world red. (00:43) [Reborn]Titania: Why? (00:43) Ikaru: Well.. (00:43) Ikaru: hm? (00:43) [Reborn]Titania: Because I've already been broken. (00:43) [Reborn]Titania: Shattered. (00:44) [Reborn]Titania: There's nothing more of me. (00:44) [Reborn]Titania: A steel shell clinging to a shadow of who- of what she once was. (00:44) [Reborn]Titania: Pay me no mind. (00:44) Ikaru: I see... (00:44) [Reborn]Titania: Try and force yourself in. (00:44) [Reborn]Titania: Cut yourself on the jagged tear you're forcing up. (00:44) [Reborn]Titania: Who's happy? (00:45) [Reborn]Titania: We'll both just be hurt. (00:45) [Reborn]Titania: So leave me alone. The other party left the server, so the window was disabled.[/quote] And on a lighter...somewhat...note, continuing Mash's new coverage of the Excessum league... One of the candidates for the electric leader showed up for her first time here, and, soon after she made quite the rivalry... [quote](17:02:04) [Exc]Roxyn: YAY! I BEAT MELISSA!

One of my friends told me about it and I figured I'd spread the word xD If you haven't already, gogo and get your event Mew from Wifi Mystery Gift :D and Ame, for you especially, figure out Mystery Gift in B/W and get yourself a Victini! [url="http://pokemon.marriland.com/"]http://pokemon.marriland.com/[/url] <-- details there

Reborn's down again, wat do D: Edit: Advanced connection to the test server worked, hiding out in there for now.

[quote name='Bullet' post='5571' date='Oct 14 2010, 05:53 PM']Am I the only one who thinks Zoroark is overrated?[/quote] Nope, it's not as awesome as I once thought... You just need to pay attention to detail, assuming Zoroark isn't their lead. I still claim that I used it first, so blah to all of you! D:<

Ditto was the first Pokemon to be established, I think you guys can stop mentioning it now... We get it. >>

[quote]Jaroda- Thiiiiiiiis bitch. Note I only have two ice moves on my team, and if Sharpedo isn't SpeedBoosted already Jaroda seems to be faster than that or Starmie. Even a +2 Leaf Storm is basically a KO on anything on my team except Nattorei- who can only hope to explode with enough force to allow Kingdra's Outrage to take it out. If Jaroda runs Sub or Screens, both of which I've seen, it's all over for me. Never saw it attack with anything but Leaf Storm though. Something with Herbivore might counter.[/quote] Zeburaika has worked once for me, the only time I've had the chance to try it, using Nitro Charge. Without the ability to use Leaf Storm, Jaroda's little more than a nuisance.

I only say what I did in speaking for the rest of us; It's become heavily apparent that Ditto's an issue to some of us. While I haven't personally had any issues with it, I can see from others such as N8 battling, it's a big problem. A Blaziken perfectly set up with +6 attack and +4 speed, sweeping with Reversal, suddenly is met by a Ditto; That Blaziken can expect to be effortlessly made into KFC within the next turn. [code]Dream World-only Ability: Eccentric When Ditto is sent out, it uses Transform against one of the opponent's Pokemon right away.[/code] ^ This ability also copies stat boosts, so, if Ditto was to have a Choice Scarf (which it always will), you pretty much are guaranteed a KO on whatever's out at the moment.
