Shofu the beatdown was the best imo but everyone did pretty well and it was amazing overall.

Happy birthday !!!

I, too, believe that everything in the world is already predetermined. That being said, humans have the perception of free will and perception is reality for us. We do not know our future and we never will with one hundred percent certainty.

Happy Birthday :]]!

Would you like vampires more or less if they fed off of orange soda instead of blood?
I would like them more in real life (if they exist) but less in movies

What is your top ten list of favorite anime

I don't really teambuild myself but a rookie mistake that I see a lot of people making is soley focusing on team synergy and not enough on a team strategy. If you need help you should post in reignited'light team dump thread where she makes teams and gives reasons for why they are the way they are.Tips for a beginner teambuilder?
What music you usually listen to?
If you like music, what's your favourite band/Artist?
Do you play a musical instrument?
Do you like sports? if yes, what's your favourite sport?
I listen to it all. Rap, nightcore, anime, pop, ost, kpop, jpop, electric, house,country, pretty much if it sounds good enough to me i like it. There is no genre i dislike.
Drake is my favorite artist
I used to play violin but not anymore
I like playing sports but not watching it. Tennis and basketball are my favorite
Prob wont be able to reply to anyone in a while
Thnx ody

I like jirachi in 4th gen not only because of its flinching powers, but it also seemed very versatile. You could go special attack or run lures like hp ground Which made nothing 100% safe from it.I meant like each Gen but whichever tier. Still, your answer was good. Gen 4 Jirachi was surprising tbh lol.
Fk mons, it is almost 70% luck once you reach the really high levels. The more luck on your side the higher the chance it will end up bailing you out of a tough situation. Imo its why pokes like jirachi and moves like scald are so good.>jirachi

Idk, you are a bit vague. If I had to take a guess, it is because I never fall for your dez nuts jokesWhy do you keep disappointing me?
Man, not going to lie, there were many times where I didn't feel at place here. The only real reason I still stick around is because of my AO friends. If they left I would shortly after as well. Other than that, you are right, there is really not much of an appeal that reborn brings to me. I don't play the reborn game and I don't think i will ever really fit in here.What keeps you here? Reborn isn't exactly the most competitive place :x
NoDo you believe in the me that believes in the you???

...alright, fair enough.
Also, since I've been asking this elsewhere, what's your class? Fire Emblem/Fate series/tradtional RPG/etc?
The mage? I only really play pokemon and starcraft 2 :[ so idrk what the question is asking.
How good are my skills? Think back before when I still cared about comp.
I have had upset wins against you before yet you have won official OU tours. Am I that good or were you sandbagging most of the time?
Do you like smash 4 and do you comp?
It has been a long time since we have battled each other (like over a year or 2 ago) so it is hard for me to give a super accurate rate. However, when I was playing against you in prcl, I was using a weird team that skitty (when she was not a good teambuilder) and I made around cress. Now I know it isn't a good excuse but I never did take reborn tours as seriously as I took official tours. You were definitely better than the average rebornian probably a 7/10.
Smash 4 is alright. I am not really that competitive and I don't think I have ever won one game in multiplayer ,_, given that I only have faced two people so far.
Do you recommend that we sign up to Pokémon Online?
Well, not necessarily. Back then, PO was a pretty popular simulator. If you want to take steps to improve right now I would recommend creating a smogon account and joining any of the tours you find interesting while also browsing all of the competitive forums.
1. I can do it in two words. "Almost nonexistent". I rely on a lot of people to build teams for me now a days but once in a while a lord squad is birthed -1. define your teambuilding abilities in five sentences.
2. what made you choose 'Fruitdealer' as an alias? ngl, that's a pretty cool name.
3. what is your best ORAS team that you've made(and define teambuilding process please)? This can be any tier you played in.
4. If you could change anything about reborn, what would it be?
5. favorite song artist and the song from that artist?
2. It actually isn't original just like Kamina. I took it from a starcraft 2 player that I used to watch a lot before I joined reborn. His name was also Fruitdealer and, just like you, I also took a liking to the name and took it as my own.
3. The best ORAS team I have ever made was probably the first team I made in 2015 (ik pretty far back). The scizor/manaphy/clefable/lando-t/latios/rotom-w team

This is the teambuilding process for it
I based the team around cm manaphy and 3attack sd scizor since i thought they synergized well offensively as well as defensively. I then added a u-turn core as well as latios for defog and clefable for rocks (dragon fairy core). The team doesn't really do well now but back than i got really high in ladder (top 10) and won many tours with it including a POCL tour! http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-ou-93878
4. If there was one thing i could change about reborn is that they are a bit too strict with there rules. I feel like it limits a lot of freedom of expression but at least they allow it in back channels. I also wish there were ladder tours in reborn like there used to be. They pretty much ended ladder tours because of sniping incidents without even saying before hand that it was illegal. If we had it back, I would greatly enjoy being in reborn again.
5. This one is a tricky one because I like a lot of artist and songs and it changes depending on my mood or if i am with people or not. At this moment though, my favorite artist is drake while my favorite song is "blessings"
I don't know if you mean comp mon in ORAS OU or if you mean from every gens OU so i will just answer both of themFavorite comp mon from each gen go :]

How did you get to be so good at teambuilding and competitive battling?
It may be a cliche answer, but I got really good at competitive battling and team building by practicing a lot and having exposure to top lvl players. Two years ago was when I really got into competitive battling, I would ladder a lot in main server and watch high level smogon battles on their forums. My first somewhat official tour was in powc ( pokemon online world cup). The captain of the team decided to give me a shot and play in the team and our team ended up winning the whole tour! (http://pokemon-online.eu/members/72742/ in awarded medals).
How much time and effort did it take you to think of this title? Seriously, couldn't you make it just a tiny bit... less simple? Who the hell are you, Saitama?
Which do you think are some really good and at the same time underprepared threats in the Oras OU metagame?
Diglett is broken, right?
When did you get to be so good at teambuilding? Did I miss something?
It actually took me a long time to come up with title, but I thought it would be best if it was short and to the point
I haven't been playing to much ORAS recently but I feel like Life orb Hydreigon is really good because it is hard to predict what exactly its moveset will be and dark spam is already amazing. Also, most people don't really prepare for it when they teambuild at all
I am no expert in LC, but from what i did play it did seem somewhat centralizing.
give me an honest rate of my pokemns skills
honestly, i think you have improved a lot recently. You still do choke a little and your team building is a bit weird for my taste so I would say 6.9/10 (it may not seem like a honest number but it really is)
Kamina sounds like Lucina. Are you Lucina?
no i am not -. Kamina is a character from an anime called TTGL
What's your favorite Mega?
Why isn't it Gallade?
My favorite mega is probably mega lopunny only because I like using it a lot in OU
It isn't gallade because that poke isn't that good in OU }:
how do you feel about my trash abilities fams
what's your favorite junk food brand
uhhh.. what do you like to eat
ye
I think you are really funny. It is also nice to have known you for such a long time! Idk if you remember but I played my first and only LoL game with you
My favorite junk food brand is probably flaming hot cheetos although i haven't been eating them recently
I like burritos, i eat one almost every day
-
I never did one of these and I have been here for four years so why n o t!?
Ask me anything and i'll answer every one of your question.
-
Build around manectric + band victini
-
Ahh, Bagel!! I am really glad we crossed paths and that you eventually joined AO. You are a invaluable member to the squad and your battling skills have improved a lot since we first met. I've enjoyed all the ao skype calls that we had together and grats on staying here for two whole years!

Last core, I promise!
Dragonite @ LeftoversAbility: MultiscaleEVs: 248 HP / 56 SpD / 204 SpeJolly Nature- Dragon Dance- Substitute- Roost- FlyLopunny @ LopunniteAbility: LimberEVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 SpeJolly Nature- High Jump Kick- Return- Fake Out- Quick AttackFlynite is a pretty big threat in this meta and one of the perks is that it can set up on most lop counters/checks such as lando-t and protect ferrothorn. It also has somewhat of a defensive synergy with lop in that dragonite can eat up fighting moves while lop can kind of tank rock moves from t-tar and stuff. Addy Lop is pretty powerful because even though it is out-sped by a lot of pokes, it can still beat most of them. Weavile and Alakazam, for example, die to fake out + QA (weavile after taking rocks damage) even though they out speed addy variants. Addy lop is also a good lure for skarms (which, with quagsire/unaware clef, is like the only flynite counter) since it has a high chance of two shoting even the most defensive skarms at full after taking rocks damage. a spinner/more dedicated stall breaker may or may not also be nice on the team but I didn't know where to go after that. Thanks for taking all of my requests! -
The first team you made was pretty nice! I was wondering if you could make a more offensive team for me as well using a different core if you don't mind doing double requests from people
Serperior @ Life Orb / Miracle Seed / leftoversAbility: ContraryEVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 SpeTimid Nature- Leaf Storm- Giga Drain- Hidden Power Ground- Dragon PulseTalonflame @ Sharp BeakAbility: Gale WingsEVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 SpeJolly Nature- Flare Blitz- Brave Bird- Roost- Swords DanceThis core pretty much says fuck you to clefable which is like everywhere! hp ground serp is a pretty nice lure which also has a nitche of outspeeding all hp fire Serperior as well which could be helpful. The basic premise of the core is that serperior beats everything that walls talon (i.e garchomp/tyrantiar/slowbro) while also putting more work vs slower teams while talonflame beats most of serp counters like chari-y and fast revenge killers (i.e lop/alakazam/torn-t) while also putting in work vs more aggressive teams! -

Most people do not expect t-wave t-tar or that it will carry chople berry so it can be a good alakazam/lopunny lure. The eves/moves could be made better however you see best fit but I gave togakiss enough speed to out-speed bisharp so that it could not sweep this core.
-
Having experience with this team, it is pretty well made. I really like the coba berry keldeo because not only does it act like a lure as you said, but it can also fake being scarfed. Overall, this team uses a lot of unique sets and can catch many people off guard if used correctly and nice job on your peak!

--First-- Reborn Pokebank OU RMT(ft Jirachi)
in Pokémon Fan Club
Posted
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello all, It is Kam back at it again with an RMT. The last RMT I made was just when Gen 6 first came out and now I think it's time to make one for Gen 7 as well. Gen 7 brought a lot of new things into the competitive OU scene most notably their implementation of z move which was like the megas of gen 6. Most people are aware that z moves are used to straighten attacking moves but not many know of the effects that z moves have on non damaging moves. Gen 7 also brought about the popularity of battle terrains, four in specific. It is important to know all of the z-moves and battle terrains if you want to battle competitively in this gen. Having knowledge about all the new pokemon, especially the ultra beast, will also help out a lot. The team I am presenting now got top 400 in smogon Pokebank OU in 21 games(Proof[i swear both of my losses were from hax-]). I could have gotten higher but exams and finals were coming up soon and anyways this was more of an educational rmt.
I know what you guys are probably thinking, "ofc kam is using a jirachi" and probably also "why on earth is it running happy hour". When happy hour is used as a z move it makes all of jirachi's stat increase by 1. This makes it as potent as its scarf counterpart without being forced to be locked into a move. I thought it was so amazing so I decided to build the team around it. It is supposed to be a late game sweeper though after most of the pokes are weakened and all of counters are destroyed. The added buff to defence is also nice because it becomes significantly less vulnerable to priority moves such as shadow sneak and can also tank moves incase iron head fails to flinch. It can only be shiny when it gets the move happy hour and it is unable to learn heart stamp so I decided to make its other two moves fire punch and thunder punch beating steel and water pokemon respectively. my favorite battle with it would probably have to be http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7pokebankou-485512868 as we can see, HO just gets rekt by it also possibly the best replay ever
It used to be my defogger but eventually i found hp ice to be a lot better. It is a nice scizor counter and it can beat a lot of bulky water pokemon better than jirachi on its own like Toxapex. Pressure also helps me make sure that someone isn't able to always spam hazards after I defog them with my defogger. discharge > thunderbolt because paralized pokes are a lot easier to deal with this team. its spread is pretty standard but it's speed helps it out speed base 100 neutrals and its hp and def make it bulky enough to tank most physical attacks. It is also the ground resist in my team.
