Shanco

That feel when... EDIT: This is the same summoner as before! That feel when a well-placed ult from Ashe arguably determined a game's outcome.

I finished the comments as promised - regarding Silver's comment: Will-O-Wisp on Houndoom is legit. Its Defense is terrible, so that helps a lot. - regarding Houndoom: Also, you're gonna want Ground instead of Ice for Hidden Power. You have plenty of ways for your other Pokemon to take out Dragonite, Gliscor and that gang; thus you want to focus on taking out things like Heatran, the odd Empoleon, I guess Blaziken as well since you'll outspeed the bastard at first, and a few others that I probably haven't thought of mentioning. You don't wanna get walled by Heatran, and the Air Balloon varieties are outsped and grounded with a strong Dark Pulse - there, problem solved, as Heatran can't do too much to you in return. Don't worry about Gliscor - pass the Special Attack to Houndoom, and it OHKO's most Gliscor with Flamethrower in sand. The switch in HP type brings the number of things that can wall you from 6 or 7 down to one (Dragonite, and the rest of your team easily takes it out). Gyarados is no more or less a problem through this change. - regarding Nidoking: Drill Run's high crit-hit is not turned into more power by Sheer Force - thus, you're better off using either Earthquake for that physical aspect, or Earth Power, which does have something for Sheer Force to work with. - regarding Salamence: Thinking it should go mixed, perhaps with Flamethrower or Hydro Pump in the place of Crunch. - regarding Slowbro: Your team is fairly specially focused, so it isn't too bad an idea to swap Psychic for Psyshock on Slowbro. 8.5/10 is my rate.

And, as if by magic, I appeared... - regarding Infernape: Dude. Use Heat Wave. Serves two purposes: the first being a spread move, and the other being mixed coverage, which is a wise thing to do. - regarding Alakazam: staying on the topic of mixed coverage, might as well pack a Psyshock, so you don't get walled senseless. Gengar's there if you have to take out that Fighting-type from the Special side. 9/10. Solid.

Monster Mash   Tyranitar (M) @ Choice Band Trait: Sand Stream / Unnerve EVs: 180 HP /  is252 Atk / 76 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Stone Edge - Pursuit - Crunch / Ice Punch - Superpower   You know that Old Spice commercial where Terry Crews describes Odor Blocker Body Wash as "too powerful to let this commercial end"? Well, the power exerted in that commercial is very similar to what's going on here. Raw. Power. Makes up for a whopping seven weaknesses. Stone Edge is your main attack, of course. If a weakened sweeper like Latios or Chandelure is giving you trouble, use Pursuit to get rid of them before they can switch. Crunch is the sure thing as Pursuit is kind of a one-time use thing before you have to switch, but I like Ice Punch as it's an unpleasant surprise for some switch-ins like Gliscor. Finally, Superpower can be used to smash many Pokemon who would otherwise wall Tyranitar - it does enough damage to Skarmory that it risks being KOed if it doesn't get away from Tyranitar as fast as it can. If you want, dump more EVs into HP from Speed. That allows you to catch Roosting Skarmory off guard and destroy it with a super-effective Superpower.

Remember this band? They made the theme for the Big Bang Theory. I love them.

Banned because you really don't have any justification for banning Mael besides beating Roo to it.

Following in Huggy's footsteps. This was amazing. Start of turn 32 Team Plasma Grunt called Excadrill back! Team Plasma Grunt sent out Skarmory! Pointed stones dug into Team Plasma Grunt's Skarmory! Chibi Rin's Crook used Mach Punch! Team Plasma Grunt's Skarmory lost 17% of its health! The sandstorm rages. Chibi Rin's Crook is buffeted by the sandstorm! Chibi Rin's Crook restored a little HP using its Leftovers! [星] Ryan C: FALCON Start of turn 33 Chibi Rin's Crook used Drain Punch! A critical hit! [星] Ryan C: PUNCH! Team Plasma Grunt's Skarmory lost 70% of its health! Team Plasma Grunt's Skarmory fainted! Chibi Rin: PUNCH Team Plasma Grunt: O_O Team Plasma Grunt's Skarmory had its energy drained!

I disagree with Silver on the thing about residual damage. That's for the most part offset by her massive HP and the fact that she uses Leftovers; she's used a lot as a special wall on many sand teams for that reason. - regarding Gliscor: go ahead and use SD Gliscor, but you need to ramp up your Attack / Speed EVs and swap Protect for Substitute. Gliscor, at 95 base Speed, has the ability to outspeed some things like Breloom and CB Dragonite so you should take advantage of that. 8.5/10

Zac looks like he's just straight up annoying and can be a great harassing champ.

Alright Inuki, here we go.

Rammus and I totally ripped bot lane a new one.

The Bouffalant fro just isn't the Bouffalant fro without those horns, dude.

Probably the comeback of the year. Our nexus was at about 10%.

Renzo: I wonder when Hardy and Aya will consummate their love [星] Ryan C: Pretty sure that's your boy Samson, not Hardy Old Man Pops: Really james? Hmph... Renzo: Why would Samson date Aya? Silence: wat Silence: I agree with the above question Silence: why would Samson date Aya Trevo: Nice Game, Hardy. I thought I'd actually lose, too. Renzo: Yeah, Aya likes her men rock hard. Renzo: I'm done Blast: I see what you did there

Flare Blitz*/d got ganked. /pd was impaled by Kyurem's Glaciate!

Banned for pointing out that it mocks religion, as otherwise it would not be offending the clueless

That feel when killing someone with Ashe's ult from the other side of the Rift Like a boss

Try this (or if not this, then perhaps something similar). Harassment Seismitoad Seismitoad (M) @ Life Orb Trait: Swift Swim EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Surf - Earth Power - Stealth Rock - Focus Blast Seismitoad works well as a Stealth Rock setter in rain due to its decent defensive typing and Swift Swim. Well, at least it does better than Terrakion, who is just begging to get blasted by rain counters. It's also got a fancy special move pool which lets it come back later and pull off a clean sweep late-game after all of their Pokemon have been thrown around. Surf is your STAB, as Scald just doesn't hit hard enough. Earth Power gives you another hard-hitting STAB, and takes things down like Metagross and Raikou. Focus Blast shows Ferrothorn who's boss (along with some other Grasses out there).

That feel when double post... That feel when I accidentally in my half-asleep mode put Bug Bite on Galvantula and... The foe's Dugtrio used Toxic! Galvantula is already poisoned. Galvantula used Bug Bite! A critical hit! The foe's Dugtrio lost 78% of its health! Galvantula stole and ate the foe's Dugtrio's Lum Berry! Galvantula's status cleared! I swept his team thanks to that move

Welp.#ProblemsBelowLevel20

lolwut Anyway, just found this random champ at the store, named Sejuani (at least random to me). I have NEVER seen her before but apparently she's been around for a while...what gives? If no one else will play as her, I might as well spend a few extra IP and give her a shot.
