  1. Well, if miss chance does not deter people from using Icicle Crash, Play Rough, Gunk Shot, and even Fire Blast and Focus Blast...
  2. Fairy Tail Episode 222: an episode about Lucy learning Transformation Magic from Erza suddenly becomes a parody of superhero stories. Why? Because "Transformation" is "Henshin" in Jap, but "Henshin" is also the battle cry used by Kamen Rider and other such sentai heroes...

  3. If I have to use a different ghost with the same strategy as Cofagrigus, I might as well stick with Cofagrigus. I mean, an Eviolite user would fear Knock Off even more: at least, Cofagrigus can punish them for making contact, by taking away their ability... Double Hit is boosted by technician, so unless my calculations are off, when you keep both hits into account it has higher damage output than Return, plus it hits twice so it can be useful against users of Substitute. As for M-Steelix, remember that this is a TR team, so yeah, my attackers actually have bulk investiments... Meaning, not only can Bronzong and Cofagrigus switch into it (the former getting a chance to set up freely, the latter burning with WoW), Clawitzer can switch into it too (who cares about taking damage, as long as I don't die, there is always Healing Wish). And unless people have started running M-Steelix with full SpDef investiments, Water Pulse should be a very easy OHKO...
  4. Fairy Tail Episode 221: even in an episode entirely set in the middle of a blizzard, leave it to Hiro to find new, surprising ways of getting Lucy naked...

  5. Fairy Tail Episode 220: I appreciate that they would try to depict Juvia's affection for Gray in a cute, sweet manner... But the fact that she has a GRAY-SHAPED SPONGE FOR SHOWERING is kinda creepy...

  6. Indeed. The only non-mega Pokemon capable of using effectively the TR-HW combo in RU, with the bulk to back it up, is Musharna. But I already have two TR setters weak to Knock Off, so I went with Mega Audino because... Well, because it is a mega fairy, meaning it takes virtually no damage from that move. And it's not like I can replace one of the other two either: no RU Pokemon other than Cofagrigus has TR-Memento (unless you wanna use friggin' MISDREAVUS), and the only Pokemon thay has TR-Explosion and resists Knock Off is CARBINK, so yeah...
  7. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ru-343623639 And right when you thought you had taken my most dangerous Pokemon out of the equation...
  8. Fairy Tail Episode 219: Natsu, Lucy and, of all people, Aquarius baby-sitting Asuka (the little daughter of Alzack and Bisca) has got to be one of the most adorable things I've ever seen in this series.

  9. Two recent posts of mine got 10 upvotes combined, but my reputation went up by 1. o.O

      That's odd...

  10. Assuming that it is too late for "don't get married", all I really can recommend is to have fun. It might very well be the last time
  11. Fairy Tail Episode 218: Ok yeah, as this filler arc concludes, the final verdict on it is absolutely negative. Was it even made by the same people who made KotSH? A filler arc's whole point should be to expand on minor aspects of the plot and to foreshadow future events, but while KotSH did exactly that, this arc started with some decent ideas, only to simply stop making sense after a while...

      The only two positive aspects are the sweet Lucy-Aquarius moment to conclude he arc (which was supposed to be, you know, THE MAIN FOCUS OF THE WHOLE THING), and Loke hitting on Yukino. Hardly enough to consider this arc anything more than a waste of time, considering that we could have simply skipped it to dive straight into arguably the best arc of the series...

    2. Maelstrom

      That's fairy tale and one piece in a nutshell- they start with some decent ideas and they stop making sense after a while.

      Well that's a very big generalization. While this arc had this issue, man others that preceeded it didn't, and those who follow certainly don't. I never watched One Piece so I wouldn't know.

  12. Mega Chomp is faster and, in sand, provides added firepower, and has the stats to go mixed for some serious damage output. This being said, the damage output in question is really sand-centric, and with only one sand setter, I don't think it would be that wise to make the change. Sure, it partially helps against Azumarill (Aqua Jet Cannot OHKO Mega Chomp if it is at full health, and Chomp is faster so it can murder the rabbit before it gets to use Play Rough), but... Well, that's all it does. I honestly don't know if your problems would be solved or not with this change, I guess the only way to find out is to try... I recommend an EV spread of 16 Atk - 240 SpAtk - 252+ Spe (-SpDef), with Swords Dance, Earthquake, Stone Edge and Fire Blast. This makes it virtually impossible for any Pokemon to switch in safely against such a beast (you have an Atk stat of 380 with just 16 EV, and Sand Force, if sand is up, boosts the damage output of both your physical moves, while Fire Blast dispatches Skarmory and Ferrothorn), but you must be very careful with the timing of your SD.
  13. Fairy Tail Episode 217: Thing I dislike #7 EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS DAMN EPISODE (with the sole possible exception being the Lucy-Yukino-Hisui celestial trio of clothing damage). At this point, they have just stopped trying to make sense...

  14. Fairy Tail Episode 216: Thing I like #6 Wendy getting some offense in. She's a dragon slayer too, after all!

  15. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ru-342893131 FEAR THE CLAW http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ru-342894738 This guy gets it
  16. Fairy Tail Episode 215: Thing I like #5 the new opening and ending. The ending has "Don't let me down", which is a fantastic song I love very much. The opening has GANGSTER WENDY http://i.imgur.com/Jo9qC0l.jpg

  17. Fairy Tail Episode 214: Thing I dislike #6 Ophiuchus. While her reverse personality is an intelligent play on the myth behind the constellation, her normal personality never got any relevant screentime, so it's hard to care for her. Or for her faux latin.

  18. Fairy Tail Episode 213: Thing I dislike #5 Sagittarius. His reverse personality is identical to his normal personality. Kinda kills the point of the whole "reverse personality" theme...

  19. Double post because Jokes aside, I am messing around with TR in RU, and I wanted to share some results. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ru-342423979 When I still used screens on Bronzong and Specs on Clawitzer. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ru-342433566 What's up with all the Gallade being one-shot before they can get a move in. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ru-342426617 Scarf Ditto doesn't work that well under Trick Room, kid.
  20. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ru-342276235 How a Fire Blast miss can NEARLY cost you a match.
  21. Fairy Tail Episode 212: Thing I like #4 Aries. She's a delinquent, which is a simple yet clever way of inverting her usual personality, AND she has a smart gameplan to fight Juvia. Not all Eclipse Spirits are stupid, it would seem.

  22. Fairy Tail Episode 211: Thing I dislike #4 Gray and Cancer having a DANCE-OFF. For a matter of coherence I cannot complain about the Gray fanservice (I don't complain when it's females being fanservice-y, after all), but I can complain about how stupid the whole thing is.

  23. Iffy about two choicers, since you rely on Exca for speed I think you can afford recoil-less LO on Nido for the extra (and much needed) power. If Gastrodon cannot time its switch right again Belly Drum Azumarill, the rabbit is then 100% guaranteed to destroy your team. And Megazard-Y scores a kill every time it succesfully comes in, if they don't fuck up predictions. These are the sole two flaws I see, but they are big ones, although I can't see many solutions in a mono Ground...
