We need to talk about how blatantly wrong campaignshitters were about Mega Scovillain. How is there such a massive failure to understand the mechanics of the game?
>>59218950Reminder that pedophiles were saying that scovillian hadn’t been promoted to shillmon? Why is vpedo so stupid?
>>59218950>1 Typhlosion>not a single Meganium or Feraligatr in sight
>>59218950>this thread againAre you autistic or something?
>>59218950bros y r there so many regional variants and evos i thought they were supposed to be bad and extinct and stinky and smelly
>>59218950>campaignshittersTbf most pros didn't expect it to perform based off of the stat spreads either
>>59218968>being extinct doesn’t mean a pokemon has to be a shitmonVp owes Aurorus-autist an apology
>>59218960Meganium already placed top cut in two other tournaments.
Dude was using two Megas and still got 5th in the updated rankingshttps://play.limitlesstcg.com/tournament/69c30ae236f5b5c303dbce1c/standingsFun Fact: Of the Scorvillain in the tournament, only 2 apparently could go Megahttps://play.limitlesstcg.com/tournament/69c30ae236f5b5c303dbce1c/metagameSo either the tracking is fucky or 100 times as many people said "nah, Mega Scorv bad"
>>59219032>Will-o-whisp Prankster Sableye is almost as effective and doesn't take your Mega
>>59219041>having to manually click a move that can miss on a pokemon with even worse bulk is almost as effective as automatically spreading burns just by existing while dealing other damage and redirectingcampaignshitter moment
>>59218950meganiumsisters…what the FUCK is this
>>59218960Meganium placed in other tournies. Feraligatr though is a great example of botched stat distribution.
>>59219032You see base Charizard there so it’s probably just fucky tracking or it wasn’t always used.
>>59218950Even the biggest comp players thought it was shit. Then someone (I think it was Wolfey?) won a tournament using it. Now everyone uses it. Also only one top team?
>>59218972Even after seeing the ability they thought it'd just be some niche threat.
>>59219069Scovillain usually dies in one hit anyway. Every single one I've faced either died in one hit, or durvived with 1 hp only to die to Sandstorm or something. You can easily play around Mega Scovillain by hitting it with a Special Attacker. Meanwhile Will o Wisp is targeted, therefore has a higher chance of being useful
>>59218950I have a humiliation fetish.Can you please call me a campaignshitter?
>>59219982Why are you pretending you play the game?
>>59218950>Make a M-Scovillain team>try it on the ladder>rain team, rain team, team full of special attackers>fuck this gay bullshit, back to ol' reliable>keep running into phys heavy teamsTHE WORST THING IS, I KNOW THAT OF I WANT TO TRY MY SCOVILLAIN TEAM AGAIN I WILL GET PUNISHED WITH ANOTHER RAIN TEAM. AAAAH
>>59219989the neat thing about 4v4 is that if you see a rain team you can just select your 4 mons on the fly
>>59218960What a failed shillmon, PFFFTHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA
>>59219974He got to top of the ranked ladder, not an actual tournament. In any case it didn’t win a tournament, it got 5th
>>59218950
>>59218950Im more confused as to how Aerodactyl made it big?
>>59219988Because I do.
>>59220146Still, that's unironically quite good
>>59219069And yet it's barely got less usage and barely less effective than Mega Scorvillain
>>59219069Yeah, the guy who was 10th in OP and 7th in the final results is surely a bad player
>>59221634Charizard Y and Sneasler morphed the meta around themselves. Aerodactyl outspeeds and KOs both plus has tailwind.
>>59221634Fastest non-priority tailwind and also Rock Slide spammer for a non-mega Pokemon. And since most pokemon carry Berry, Unnerve works to shut them down
>>59221634>>59221666They laughed at me for using Aerodactyl twenty years ago when it was called "Shoddy". Never went above 1200 ELO.Who's got the last laugh? I was right all along! I deserved to be the very best!
Reminder that op pissed in his bed well into his thirties
>>59221659yeah probably because he’s not retarded enough to think sableye’s primary purpose is to spam will o wisp
>>59221709It isn't, but it's one of the few Pokémon with Prankster that gets that move, and the only one currently available in Champions. It's an extra option that many Sableye players will run
>>59221709I mean the one he used was running Will-o-whisp. But yeah, they could be running Thunder Wave instead. This is as opposed to Mega Scorv which just burns a Pokemon and dies, it's one of those Pokemon you don't want to run but nothing else quite does the same job concisely so it's still on the table.
>>59218950Remember when Flygonfags tried memeing Mega Scovillain as some kind of new shitmon just because they thought it took the mega slot from them? What a bunch of retards.
>>59221700aero was good in rse and dppt though
>>59221771>which just burns a Pokemon and diesWhy are you pretending you play the game?
Remember when all we had as a point of reference was the Decidueye-tier statline before its crazy OP ability was revealed?
>>59223120Plenty of campaignshitters were screeching about it being a shitmon even after its ability got leaked.
>>59223123yeah, just like how you wear swearing on your mother life that mega skarm wouldn’t be a total shitmon right kojo
>>59221700Aerodactyl was a good suicide lead and fast taunter in gen 4 anon
