>>59574490I was one win away from champions and I didn't get it lol
I just had the tensest battle of my fucking life.>Tailwind on the turn his Talonflame switches in>he reads me perfectly all three turns>end up having exactly one counter for each of his remaining mons, and two of them are barely alive>have to TR so my Gambit can kill something before it dies to Tyranitar>have to stall out the last few turns of my own TR because both of my other mons are faster than his and have single-digit HP left>Gambit somehow survives all four turns and I have to weave in a Swords Dance on the last TR turn to ensure I kill GholdengoAnd that's the story of how I made it to Ultra Ball.Fuck GF for getting rid of VS Recorder.

He aint shiny but i like him. Thank you based GTS nipbro
>>59574555>him
>>59574557He is a transman
>>59574555What did you put out in exchange for it?
>>59574555I got a shiny big un' early this year when mega dimensions released. Shiny hunting in ZA felt far too easy.
HE'S COMING
>>59574561Some mimikyu i got from wonder trade
can we have roaring moon instead
SOON
I'm ready to move on from this meta.
>>59574579The meta isn't done with you.

>>59574680That's not fucking funny.
>>59574680BASEDOCORIO RISES
>>59574384Has the same problem as Mega Sceptile but on the special side. I’d hoped that as seasons went on they’d be adding proper updates to the game (E.g. banning Pokemon, adjusting movesets abilities and/or stats as needed) but given what ILCA said >>59574191 it looks like they’re doing the absolute bare minimum to justify their jobs.
>>59574680I don't think its a coincidence that the big, secretive update happens on the same day as the Nintendo Direct. I'm betting they're going to show off something about Wind and Waves to drive up holiday Switch 2 sales. If they wanted to do a tie-in with this game to boost it, they'd include a new Pokemon. Like they did with Meltan in Pokemon Go. Probably one with a gimmick that fit's the game theme, like a surfing ability.
>>59574739I think one direct is all Zelda, at best maybe we get a small trailer about reg MC, but we won't see Winds/Waves.
>>59574739the update will be out hours before the non-zelda direct
zelda bp costumes
>>59574759Crossover costumes would be sick, but that could make money from Champions which would be horrible.Please enjoy the next single challenge.
>only way people could find to make zard x work is to trick people into thinking it's ygrim
>>59574680>Wormadam >Oricorio Who fucking asked for these?
>>59574680>17 Wormadam (Plant Cloak)>18 Wormadam (Sandy Cloak)>19 Wormadam (Trash Cloak)>21 Oricorio (Baile Style)>22 Oricorio (Pom-Pom Style)>23 Oricorio (Pa'u Style)>24 Oricorio (Sensu Style) What's the point of adding 24 new pokemon if 8 of them are just the same thing anyway? what's next? 64 new pokemon (all alcremie forms)?
reg m-s(pinda)
>>59574779>>59574795the list is a shitpost imagining a worst case scenario
>>59574775Charizard X is alright in singles.
>>59574830funnily though, the best aspect of Charizard X is that your opponent was expecting you to turn into the other one
>>59574680I unironically want Sirfetch'd. I love that crit duck. I used it in Player's Cup I. It's low key kind of good. Base 65 speed so it speed creeps all the base 60s like Incin and Lapras. Can't be intimidated. Hits ghosts.
>>59574857I think he's just on the list so a slot gets wasted on Farfetch'd.
It's the last day of the seasonPost your achievement page and tell me your rank
Lost three in a row today, fuck this game sometimes. Fucking hated my matches today, bullshit opponents. People who use swampert and archaludon should have their legs broken
>>59574890Made it to MB3 this season but might lose it if I keep this god damn losing streak. Fuck the match making today
>>59574897Both get absolutely cucked if you can take away the rain. You can even double protect to stall out rain turns if you already knocked out the Pelipper.
>>59574890MB 4/3 in both metas every season. I used a lot of H-Zoroark in the early seasons I just really like Feraligatr.
>>59574905everyone is trying to climb in the last moments, don't sweat it.>>59574926What do you even run with feraligatr?he seems kind of predictable
>>59574931I'm retarded but when I was using it, I ran Gravity Dragonize Mega Kick. It was pretty pointless but fun.
BIGMONEYNOWHAMMY
There's like 20 people making their own teams and over a million copying and pasting them
>>59574936>pointless>double edge damage with no drawbackactually cracked, unexpected too.I'd say keep trying it.Who is your gravity setter? Sableye?
>>59574931>he seems kind of predictablePredictiable, yes, but very little that's not a fairy can safely eat a +1 Double Edge.
I wish people could lewd my trainer after a lost
People who use the following teams should be publicly executed.>dual screens archaludon>perish song>final gambit
>>59574890I didn't play at all this season.I made it to MB4 to MB3 in the first 4 seasons, but I just didn't feel compelled to play another month of this reg.
>>59574890MB3 this season (MB4 in previous ones), all Pokemon up to Vivillon have 25 to 100 wins, and everything after Dragonite has never been used. Got the 500 wins badge a few hours ago
>>59574749Oh you're right. The one in 14 hours is just for Zelda. Then there's another general Direct 24 hours later.
>>59575012>Zardslop You didn't earn it.
8th leafeon still no females
>>59575023I don't care what you think.
>>59575011>Use the Polish guy’s Blaziken Worlds team to win against a nip’s Perish Trap team of M Gengar, Politoed, Incin and Kommo-O with M Blaziken, Gambit (which the dumbfuck Parting Shotted with Incin), Farig and Primarina>The second they lost their Gengar and Politoed they take as long as possible selecting their moves for Incin and Kommo-ONot the first time one of them has done this but I keep getting reminded that they’re really petty bastards
>>59575032Based
>>59574832Dragonite lives ice punch thru multiscale and can damage metagross with heat wave. They ran no bulk metagross so that + another move would always knock it out
The use extremely effective move mission was easy with everyone spamming the world champ team and modifications of the world champ team
you know what megapedo is actually kino but what the fuck were they thinking giving it strong jaw and then +15 spa
>>59575094Strong Jaw is a great ability, the only issue is that there's no Water type bite move yet. The extra special is probably good enough to catch some mons off-guard with stuff like Ice Beam too, or work around specific checks.
It's coming I can tell, I feel it in me bones
>>59575107This nigga would've saved SV.
>>59575097uninvested ice beam doesnt even kill non-multiscale dragonite (ice fang does more at -1) and i don't think incin is dying to hydro pump either> there's no Water type bite move yetfishious rend pedo in m-c trust
>>59575111I really like SV's metas mostly.It would have definitely made Urshifu and Fluttermane think twice though.
Good thesishttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ulV_UNjZQeY
>>59575111Chi-Yu has entered the chat
>>59575126Dawg nothing is surviving against Chi-Yu. >252+ SpA Choice Specs Beads of Ruin Chi-Yu Overheat vs. 4 HP / 252+ SpD Blissey in Sun: 420-495 (64.4 - 75.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
>>59575160How does that look in the sun?Zard Y is going to be his best buddy.
I've lost my right to call basc cheap when I do end game encore and sleep powder shenanigans and use dual screens, can't blame people for taking advantage of game freaks retarded balancing
>Basculegion and kingambit removed from the game>Every Pokemon now learns accelerockThere I fixed the game
>>59575212getting RESPECTED is infinitely worse than dealing with highly telegraphed support moves
Press F to pay respects
>>59575218True, though alola ninetales doesn't always carry it, I think that's why I get games where the opponent is scared to use Protect now that I think about it
the only thing more obnoxious than last respects to me is prankster tailwind in terms of counterplay fake out is basically the only way to stop it from going up, which itself is trivially easy to predict with protect anyway
>>59575239Threaten TR turn 1. You don't actually have to use it, usually dissuades. Very lead dependent.
>>59574680>OricorioGood enough for me.Dancing bros, ww@?
Trade two Floettes for a shiny Dragapult and a shiny Kingambit, both with websites for OT. Oh well.
>>59575252not bad, but also problematic with the most common tw setter being whimsicott who almost always can threaten encore on the TR setter for free momentumkinda requires the non-setter to be something that can survive being burst down before TR goes up, because you can't protect in front of whims either
>>59575269Priority encore doesn't phase Farig.
>>59575273right, I forgot basically everyone uses that as their TR setterI guess that's a pretty good reason
>>59575278Yep, so you lead your TR setter and maybe even a fast powerful attacker that threatens your opponent's expected lead.Farig is very bulky as well so it has staying power.
I don't know how anyone would want 6v6 when stall in BSS is insufferable as is
>>595753566v6 in dubs would be kino
is it worth getting into the game now or will i have to whale to catch up to everybody?
>>59575400there is no such thing as a whale, especially since there really isnt much to spend money on other than costumes.sure, its worth getting into it.the only advantage someone COULD have over you is having more access to pokemon from the base games, but here trading is commonplace, so that is a nonissue.Hopefully there is a new batch of free mons once the new update drops, so new players like you can have fully made teams for free again like in early reg-B
>>59575400Whale? People practically beg for things to spend money on. You just play the game and get Pokémon from the same gacha everyone else does. You whale by owning a Switch and Home subscription to catch your own Pokémon to use.
At what time are the leaks gonna roll up?
Stocks in Oblivious Mamoswine are up
>>59575424For sure. I think scarf Mamo could be the dude since Ice Shard misses the KOs you want.
>>595753563v3 is way too sacky of a format for me to find any real enjoyment from. I'd settle for it to be 4v4 like doubles, as a real defensive core could function in something like that, but 3v3 is just really stale and match-up fishy.
Does it annoy anyone else that it doesn't just list the actual amount of screen turns and only extends to 8 turns after the "5 turns" runs out?
How do I make a Mega Dragalge team?
Everytime someone uses and bring out Dragonite you will hear this song from now onhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgEoDmY2A3M&list=RDFgEoDmY2A3M&start_radio=1
>>59574472I saw your post on /sp/
>>59575434I really do not understand why singles isn't 4v4. It just doesn't make sense.
WHERES THE FUCKING GOLISOPOD ABILITY RAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
are people really cheating in this too lmao
>>59575548Nope, people do not cheat and those who feel the need to cheat can cope about not being human however they want
Last chance to go all in on Emergency Exit, anon.
>>59575548Every single time it's the opponent running bright powder+sand veil or the snow equiv who's name I'm forgetting.There is one or two glitches but they are hard to take advantage of such as if your opponent mega evolves after you used speed swap the turn before it will reset speed to default values.
Entrainment water bubble is all mega golisopod needs
>>59575597ill fucking do it, dont tempt me
we're still a good 16-19 hours away bros
PSA: Someone is giving out loads of genned shiny Kingambit on Home right now. Literally put up anything and you get one in a couple of minutes. It's good trade fodder so I'm grabbing as many as I can
damn they give you ttar and sneasler off the bat? wildbtw these weekly missions are retarded i dont have a ghost type to send out
>>59575707you can reroll the type missions. Also for the most part, you can ignore it. nothing they give is that valuable
>>59574965Often Sableye, other times Meowstic-M
>>59575698>it's realdaaaamn
>>59575760Yeah I have like 40 of them already
>>59575766they do have obvious genned name so I'm trading them off for floettes and raging bolts immediately
>>59575780That's the smart play
>>59575698I just put an absol up but where is ittttt i think im too late
>>59575787Give it a couple of minutes home is slow asf, I literally just got 3
>>59575787restart your app or try to take it out of GTS, that'll force a refresh
Why every slant eye has started running overqwill etc
>>59575780Same, I'm looking to trade up for Floette mostly, which is even better trade fodder probably.
>>59575793Calyrex and Ursaluna BM are probably also good currency.
>>59575792I'm new to comp this season, just faced this faggot Mon for the first time yesterday and had no idea what to do. I didn't realize that Kingambit is a hard counter because I forgot Kowtow Cleave can't miss. So fuck me I guess.
>>59575788>>59575789Got em thanks bros
>>59575797Thanks for the tip. I have seen a lot of people asking for Ursaluna especially.
>>59575800don't forget rain hurricane and snow blizzard
We're ALL running mega golisopod
>>59575698pokeplug app doing some marketing right now
>>59575810Nah
>>59575813based pokeplug. got mine>>59575810lets host a golisopod teams only tourney once the update comes out
>>59575810Thanks to the based anon the other day i got my shiny at the ready
>>59575813I know a lot of you guys are sick of Kingambit, but as a returning oldfag just getting into comp, I just fucking love this lil nigga. Sick design and I like his playstyle
I kept the male one with ghost tera and put the female one with water tera in GTS for an e-floette. I wonder if the gengods will come through yet again
I'm using them to fill out my dex right now.
>>59574926how do you guys get so many vp?
>>59575853playing the game
>>59575853Play the game geg
>>59575853Time. I played since it launched in mobile and have around 300k. I don't buy cosmetics though and only buy items I actually intend to use. They give you a free mega stone in the monthly battle pass so you're bound to get some you weren't interested in buying. I also don't build or permanently own that many Pokémon I don't need.
>>59575853after you fill your box with things you like it just piles up
I'm seeing a lot of shiny Grimmsnarls with level 67, and Basculegions on offer, so potentially those are being genned too.
>>59575813i got three, put them all up for floettes and got them a return on my investment within an hour. feels good.
>>59575860>>59575861you guys play too much
>>59575884haven't been playing since last week to be honest
why does grimmsnarl not learn snarl?
>>59575884i only played a bit after worlds to get to master ball rank. once i did, i stopped. i didnt play last season. im waiting until MC
>>59575910it doesnt learn grimm either
>>59575877Most shinies are genned. I don't really care that much either way. Either way none of the Pokémon whether in Home or within the in game gacha are things I caught.
>>59575877>level 67That's more than likely because of the 67 meme.
>>59575968i hate zoomers and gen alpha
>>59575877yeah can confirm on grimmsnarl
lmao check this shit out
>>59576012geg ill move mine to paradox mons
I've traded like 20 kingambits for rayquazas and not a single one had dragon ascent, fuck me I just want to unlock the mega in pokedex
why I can't past beyond Ultraball level 3fuck
>>59576072I can't get past MB3Actually I got into MB2 for a little while a season or two ago, but I didn't last long.
>>59576072ultraball is mostly meta teams and people are trying hard to climb up to master ball since it's the last day of the seasonpick pokemon that deal with what you've seen the most in UB
>>59576012Ahh shit so thats why im still not getting the floette
>Made it to Master Ball once with a Sand Veil Brightpowder Garchompfun times
>>59576085there's nothing fun about this game
>>59575434>>59575511You ever think the max limit of pokemon you can carry on your team at any given time should have been 4 and not 6? Each pokemon can only carry 4 moves, you can only carry 4 pokemon. Every competitive format is always 4v4, it would make enough sense
>>59576096mega salamence will change your perception
>>59576115Salamence in 2018, its most dominant performance in my opinion, was not a positive.
>>59576096True
>>59576012i did the exact same thing and got my floettes. glad i got them early. the GTS is a cluster fuck of this and people asking for the ES LA bascs
get rid of your pokeplug dot app mons before the bad the OT like they did with kevdog
big trading today, got a shiny salamence, a ZA Heatran and pretty much every useful pokemon for regulation MC
>>59576171wait shit, your gonna have to buy the dlc and get a za heatran to get heatrans mega stone wont you? fuck fuck fuck. at least i have time.
qrd on the new shit?
>>59574680UNLEASH THE RATS
>>59576180You'll get it in game.
>>59576184only confirmed mons are;Mega SalamenceMega Absol ZMega Garchomp ZMega BaxcaliburMega Lucario ZMega GolispodRillaboomWe are getting 26 mons total via an accidental tweet from nintendo of america
>>59576200>only confirmed non-mega so far is the rape apefuuuuck
>>59576200>RillaboomDEMON HOME
>>59576180I did that just to be sure after what they did with Floette
>>59576180brb gonna gen a bunch of za heatrans for gts trade bait
>>59576205rillaboom is likely to bring indeedee and pincurchin (the other two terrain setters) as well as the other two Galarian startersmight be seeing less Farigirafs
>>59576216Believe Weezing is in the mix too, imagine how many megas need their abilities.
>>59576222as much as i hate to say it, i think weezing needs to be added for reg mc to be different from reg ma and mb, both of which were almost the exact same thing
>>59576222knowing game freak, megas wont get their abilities shut off by the gas. cant get precious floette and CHARIZARD be threatened
>>59576235I don't wanna imagine a world like that and mega 'mence is fucking around
wonder if anyone is actually bad enough to fall into 500 elo MB
I already completed my box and I'm at ultraball level, where do I expand this shit? and how much? fuck that shit should be unlimited like in the game
>>59576240just worry seed away aerilateimo there's too many pokemon relying on their abilities and weezing will make the game worse
>>59576253you get 10 more when you reach master ball
>>59576255weezing is a brick vs a lot of meta mons it's not that game warping
>>59576259it makes pokemon with good stats like sneasler and garchomp even better because it bricks everything else
>>59576261making those two play 2v1 isn't very nice
>>59576254I gave in and bought the sub for Home instead, having to transfer around can get annoying but you practically won't ever have space issues after.
the weezings would gangrape floette so badly i actually dont believe we will see them till megas are no longer the focus
>>59576275Weezing is going to fuck all the megas, Salamence doesn't like using non-stab, non boosted normal moves.The fairy coverage it would carry would also threaten mons like mence tremendously.
Weezing would unironically make those megas that don't care about their ability more viable. Think of how many megas that have shit abilities and then think of all the ones that really want theirs.
>>59576275Weezing w/ Neutralizing Gas in a Mega Format when 99% of them literally live or die by their abilities would be like introducing a new virus to an uncontacted island tribe.
>>59576289IT'S HIS TURN
>>59575816Still have 28 left and cannot get to sleep because of foot surgery from earlier today so if anyone wants one just chuck something up and ask for a Level 100 one. They’re in Lure and Premier Balls. >>59575877>Asking for FloettesRIP. Have one of these fish from when I borrowed a friend’s Switch and LA at the start of the year but it wasn’t an Alpha, I forgot about the studio ribbon and it’s stuck in a damn mint ball.
>>59576289I just wish Neutralising Gas could have incorporated Levitate. Really annoys me that Pokemon like it, Mega Zard X, Bronzong, etc. are always off the ground but still get hit by Ground moves.
>>59576300keep talking like that and we're getting dragon zard y with ground immunity
>>59576294Onegai. Good luck with recovery, had to get one for a small tumour near my heels and it really wasn't a good time.
I hope this update adds more hats so the boys online can stop looking zesty
>>59576331Yeah the male headgear is terrible. More fashion is desperately needed
>>59576327Enjoy. Hope the recovery went okay.
>>59576331we need less sport attire and more diverse outfitsalso if they have to keep the fish hat make one look like a magikarp or some other pokemon
did some trades to fill out my formdex, anyone want one of these before I toss them on the wonder trade?
>Check random mons on HOME>Urshifu is listed for Floettes>They want a lvl 1-10 one or one you can xfer to SVHoly shit people are retarded.
>>59576394It's an impossible troll listing. I don't know why ILCA is focused on banning genned Pokémon when they should get rid of these first.
>>59575853Playing the game, not remaking sets entirely for every mon. I also breed everything I use which helps out for natures and abilities sometimes. I'd have way more but I binged on outfits a few months ago.
>>59576259weezing also has an issue of doing nothing if it cant burn anything. also players like to protect it as much as possible so its easy to get a read on that and play around that
I kinda zoned out during M-B, why did Staraptor/Raichu become such a common mega combo?
>>59576614MB is all about damage trading, those two do it well. zap cannon focus blast fake out no guard while being faster then sneasler is great. intim with contrary and CC support is nice, also gets TW and roost if you want to go that route
>>59576331And i want options so my dragon girl can be even more of a whore.
They need to give my man Prankster.
>>59576637I'm still annoyed it lost Synthesis
>>59576614it was mostly a raptor team and raichu was for the stuff it didn't cover (bulky waters/rain and other raptors)
>>59575548Where there are chinese there are cheating.
>>59575593I see streamers like CybertronVGC reacting to Pokemon being sent out or moves being used before the animation even starts. They're obviously using something to intercept the responses from the server and show it in another window. They're likely also using something to automatically calculate damage spreads. Its not cheating in the strict sense, but it does give an advantage over people playing the normal way.
>>59576740well if you play for 1000 hours you can tell that the animation is taking longer to play than normal, therefore it missed, before the text actually appears
>>59576740They're reading the turn order.ie opponent didn't protect/use priority move which Zheng/others interpret as the opponent using the attacl they didn't want them to do.
>>59576743>>59576744No, I mean saying things like "Oh, its Garchomp" before the pokeball even opens in the animation.
>>59576740furry tier cope
>>59576748>reading text
>>59576748like >>59576743 said, if you played the game long enough, you can just predict what's being swapped into when the switch animation starts
>>59576637Prankster over pickup, flash fire over frisk
>>59576748it's either game sense, or the editor messed upcamera/microphone and gameplay are recorded separately for a couple reasons, and the editor might've put them out of sync on accident
got 20 floettes today, thank you dogezaman
>>59576637Should have been a special attacker
How much time left
>>59576778i think its like a bit over 5 hours
>>59576394at least it was something different than es-la Basculegion
>>595767786 hours till datamine, 9 hours till you can play it
y'all aren't ready
>>59576952what would be worse than emergency exit

>>59576963Slow start
>>59576952>>59576963Run Away
>>59576963Emergency EntranceAutomatically switches in when a friendly Pokemon on the field takes over 50% damage.
>>59576963klutz but it works at 50% HP and you lose the mega-evolution
My Mono-Ground using ass awaits with baited breath. The only mon I really expect is Ursaluna because it was in the promotional trailers - which would be great, for sure. Bloodmoon in particular would give the type a needed special attacking option.But outside that, I have no idea. Gastrodon would be my personal priority, as it would improve my match-up into Rain and Basculegions. Claydol is my only other Trick Room option, so it'd be nice. Toedscruel is also my sole option for re-direction with Rage Powder and would make TR more reliable. Quagsire and Clodsire with Water Absorb and Unaware would also be welcome, as would Seismitoad. People were shitposting about Wormadam but if Spore users are coming, then it might be a useful pick.I'm also interested in seeing what move and even ability changes might be in store. Picrel needs the Weezing treatment, bigly. Well-Baked Body fits it so well and lets you bluff immunities. Seeing Teleport return would also make TR more viable for Singles format, since it's in Claydol's movepool.
>>59576963
>Samurai >Beetle/Crab >Cyborg What ability they could even give it
>>59576981I'd love Gastrodon to be around, but I wonder if it isn't too fair. The powercreep is going kind of crazy right now.
>lucario z in champions soonbased>have to see its shiny version in champions soonoh no
>>59576981claydol is so awkward to make good, its typing screams offensive but its stats are purely defensive, except for its terrible HP and like 6 or 7 weaknesses which kind of undercuts that tooextremely middle of the road speed tier that's not great in or outside of trick room i think the only way to fix this guy would be some really strong ability, possibly something even better than WBB(and giving it recovery, how does a ground/psychic mon not learn recover OR shore up)
>>59577089ez give it vessel of ruin
>>59577066im using that shiny event lucario they gave out during SV for him, lol
>>59577059Only one way to find out.>>59577089It's desperately in need of loving for sure. I pretty much only use it for it's broad support movepool (which the Ground monotype generally lacks), but reliable recovery would be a godsend and could open up some more sets.
>>59577138>Hentai artstyle
>>59577138I already genned mine, both East and West. I'd love to have another way of holding Basculegion back.
STOP STALLINGTELL US THE ABILITY
Is Fabio only usable in trick room?
Golisopod shuddered!
The list leaked
>Golisopod breaks the mold!
>>59577169P much but also it's not great in trick room either (yikes!)
>>59576294Anon could you please bless a homie?
>>59577184giraffe's days are OVER
>>59577205Oh yeah with premier ball would be awesome. Thanks
At the last second

>>59576772I didn't get a single trade for a Floette yet, what's your secret?
>>59577212ayy a fellow rampardos man but >scarf
>>59577212>Samurott and RampardosHoly fucking based. Far more based than me.
>>59577205I have one but it's level 50.>>59577215Do you need one? I have like 3 in stock.
>>59577215relist them after 2 minutes
>>59577140squish squish>>59577212Congrats
>>59577218I dunno what else to put on him since Weavile has the sash and lycanroc has the orb
>>59577089>>59577138It's getting an evolution in WeeeeeWaaaaa. Trust
Shiny mence is so ugly. Shiny bax barely looks different from regular bax. I dont need these shinies
>>59577283I'd put hard stone white herb or weakness berry in there personally if not life orb
>>59577205>>59577210Enjoy.
>>59577302Could be worse. Could be shiny Garchomp or shiny Gengar. A lot of the Pokémon’s colours still look washed-out 13 years after the move to 3D
>>59577304Never figured white herb. I'll try those, thanks
>scumming for golisopod with my sparkling+alpha donutSoon I will be breaking the mold in style

>make it to MB4>decide to put a team together myself without relying on an existing template>go on the greatest losing streak of my lifeI wouldn't recommend trying to use male meowstic gravity + mega delphox hypnosis desu
>>59577359Why hypnosis instead of blowing everything up with eforce
>>59577364I tried that as well but having to use another turn and moveslot to set up psychic terrain was way too much investment for the return it got me
>he had a whole month
remind me to start like a week before season ends next time
When are the leaks!?
>>59577394HEY!Start like a week before season ends
>>59577422oh shit thanks, you saved my lazy ass
Waiting for the Mega Golisopod ability reveal.

>>59577447anger shell
>>59577364The mega fox has levitate. It cant get eforce buff from psyterrain
>>59577490Wait im stupid, other anon said gravity. But still is too much setup
>>59577356Youre a faggot desu now all these retards sre going to be running around with shiny alphas sucking dick with them instead of having actually gotten the stupid thing in ZA cause the like the pokemon. Kill yourself asap
>>59577503desu desu desu
>>59577503nta but i'm a faggot
>the anti-GTS sharing anon is off his meds againSet an alarm, anon
>>59577503why do you care about this
>>59577466siggggh
>>59577522You ever hear the term poser
There are no leaks. We all get our info post-update, in T-minus 3 hours and 33 minutes as of posting.
>>59577537it's a pokemon it's not that serious
>>59577543Its a giant shiny alpha of the most popular new mega evo that literally everyone wants. I spent 2 hours shiny grinding for mine while some fat faggot sat there and traded a weedle for his Walmart brand golisopod. Complete weak shit
>>59577549You wasted 2 hours on a fake video game accomplishment that isn't worth anything. Hopefully, you've learned from this how much you're throwing your life away on pointless shit that doesn't matter.
>>59577549there's no gameplay difference between yours or theirs so it doesn't matter how either was obtainedyou can simply choose to not think about this and it won't bother you anymore
>>59577549Don't worry Anon, your bundle of ones and zeroes is just as worthless as his :)
Do any of you have a shiny female meowscarada?
>>59577553Wasted two hours of my life to look sick as fuck with my giant alpha pokemon thats now been made completely uncool because everyones going to look at shiny alpha golis and go oh look another genned faggot. Would've been worth it before but nooo dont interact with the game system thats predicated on rng nooo just be a faggot and beg for eternal floette or shiny alphas because you cant play a fucking video game with your severe adhd
>>59577563yeah but she is pretty used and wore down
>>59577557Everyone's looking at your shiny alpha and thinks youre a shitter now because instead of 20 on the ladder there now everywhere. You've made golisopod uncool because you cant be assed to sit down and play a video game lmao. Gee do I go to route 11 and catch a pokemon? Nah just Gen it im a faggot whos life's so sad he cant even engage in pokemon lmao
>>59577560is there an echo in here or something>>59577568>oh look another genned faggot.people are going to find any excuse to say this about you they can and run with itsave yourself the trouble and stop caring instead of crying about it to strangers
I asked
>>59577574>is there an echo in here or somethingi typed the wrong word the first time, i'm sorry >_<
>>59577574>noooo stop caring that youre now lumped in with the faggot golisopod brigade>whats wrong with every goli team having a shiny alpha its not like it matters its just a game that we dont bother playing we just gen cause we're sad ass pieces of shit lmao
>>59577356I offer a little Poliwag I got off the wonderbox.
I will now gen in a shiny alpha golisopod depsite not having genned any shinies since gen 4
>>59577584>I cant play game please saar gen me shiny alpha for wonder poliwag do the needful
>>59577568no he made it uncool because he still watches and posts anime. that's a real loser compared to a shiny hunter or a speedrunner
>>59577580>the faggot golisopod brigade>every goli team having a shiny alphapic related>its just a game that we dont bother playing we just gen cause we're sad ass pieces of shit lmaoif you honestly believe what you're doing right now is any less pathetic then you should probably log off for the night
>>59577595>no saar you played the game you are the pitiful>do the needful and gen shiny alpha please saar
>>59577597https://youtu.be/n-R3LzEtumg?si=lAHQlrQF4r4cihC7
>>59577605Kek you know you cheated not only the game but yourself and you resort to baby noises cause your cope bullshit doesnt work. I enjoyed the shiny hunt, i got the thrill of seeing my fat fucking wimpod waiting for me, I caught the fucking thing. You begged online for one because you couldnt do the needful yourself
>>59577584Just ask for a Level 100 Male Golispod. Premier or Lure Ball?
Kek theyre even in shit balls too
>>59577220I mean, I have one already, so I'm just looking to hoard more for trade fodder. Was trying to get rid of some of the shiny Kingambit from last night in exchange for Floettes.Also I ended up getting my Scolipede from the other anon, but thank you!
>>59577568Anon lets be real even if we’re ascribing “value” to Pokemon a shiny alpha Golisopod was not going to be some ungodly rare thing people give thought to it’d have to be one from Swsh with a cool title.
>>59577305Thank you king
>>59577621Do you know how annoying it is to get the proper donuts in za? It takes fucking forever to get the right rng for both shiny and alpha and bug/water. Robbing yourself of the hunt so you can spam 1000 shalphas on wonder trade for some autists is bitch shit. You robbed yourself and the rest of the community so you could larp as some cool guy who spent the time catching one. You've devalued golisopod which is gay as faggot fuck
>>59577608NTA, but you are a bitch that went mad just because you wasted your time doing something no one but yourself actually cared about. Or maybe some other loser. This is just a game to play when you go shit and there's nothing else better to do in your phone. It's not that serious.
>>59577615Premier, if it is not much to ask, thank you fren. It's a tiny level 1 nip poliwag, very cute guy
>>59577608>quoting a ninja tweetgiga cringe>You begged online for one because you couldnt do the needful yourselfi have no particular interest in golisopod, i only responded to you to try and get you to have a less pessimistic outlook on your own actionsnot my fault you got assblasted about it
>>59577630>wasted my time>when I enjoyed every second of the huntNo youre just a coping faggot who cant even play a game for retard children lmao you have to beg others to hack you buzz lightyear clones from toy story 2 lmao complete pussy bullshit. And I guarantee all of you are garbage with it ive seen you all complaining about ultra ball in here
Soon.
>>59577631Donezo!
>>59577635>nigga knows ninja tweetsYoure terminally online and a complete faggot lmao cope more about your walmart brand goli
>>59577636>youre just a coping faggothave you tried reading any of the posts you've written so far in this thread>>59577640>nigga knows [thing that went viral]yeah? you do know what the internet is right
was excited to run mega bax and then remembered lucario z fuck that fag
>>59577637How long left?
>>59577644lucario z probably isn't going to do muchsure rillaboom's grassy terrain weakens earthquake enough that it can probably survive one of those but it has 70 spdef so hit it with any fire or ground special move and it'll die immediately
>>59577643No because im not a 12 year old or an autistic 21 year old I dont spend time on Twitter I spend time doing pic related lmao not everyones a little retard like you who cant even play a video game
>>59577646One hour
>>59577309Shiny Mega Gengar makes up for it though
He's still off his meds.
>>59577650>No because im not a 12 year old or an autistic 21 year oldyou are crying about a video game character on the internet>not everyones a little retard like youyou are a significantly bigger retard than anyone else in this thread
Running away from replies is typical of the bitchdom I am witnessing from the genners mmmm 'fraid so
Golisobros, it's been an honor if we end up being a meme mega.
>>59577657Im calling you out for being retarded pussy faggots who thought it would be really cool to flex genned shalphas like everyone including yourself knows youre just a little bitch who couldnt handle playing ZA to get the pokemon they wanted lmao how many of you had to ask genfaggot to get you a floette because youre either too poor or too retarded to play the game
>>59577654True but that should have been the shiny for it in the first place and I wouldn’t be adverse to them changing the shiny colour for regular Gengar in the first place.
>>59577636>when I enjoyed every second of the huntThat does not mean you didn't waste your time, retard. Again, you are the one crying because your effort was worthless in the end. Your shiny and their shiny ae the same in the end. Besides Golisopod sucks.
>>59577649fire special?
>>59577658>Running away from replies>chooses not to reply to anyonehow's the view from that glass house of yours pussy>>59577662>shalphasthat term sucks and i wish people would stop using itjust call them shiny alphas like a normal person>how many of you had to ask genfaggot to get you a floette because youre either too poor or too retarded to play the gamei simply do not use floette
>>59577668How is it a waste when its my team lead next comp lmao make some more shit up retard. Ill hit champions with it too and shit on you lmao I was 302 with a fucking mega gyarados team running no protect
>>59577628It’s not that hard you can use backup save to make donuts until you get what you want
>>59577671This niggas quoting everything desperate to act like hes not a bitch that couldnt play za for the pokemon he wanted lmfao
Is the shalpha golisopod giveaway still up?
What if Heatran gets Earth Eater?
>>59577674>expecting retards who beg for genned shalphas to have backup saves for donutsHalf these retards dont even own za lmao
>>59577549Dawg this is how kids think. We're all grown men here. Pokémon aren't real, they're ones and zeroes. Enjoy your street cred for being "legit" and let the rest of us enjoy our game pieces in peace.
>>59577677Yes saars lure ball or premier ball do the needful saars>>59577681>grown men too poor and retarded to play za for a couple hours and grind out a shinyJek
>>59577672>How is it a waste when its my team lead next comp lmaoi can think of a pretty simple and entirely possible way for it to have been a waste but i think you can probably guess what it isit's got two words and they both start with an e>>59577675>>59577680that would almost matter if had anything to do with what we were talking about
>>59577659Even if it’s a meme mega I’m still using it for a bit. Will give me an actual excuse to use one of my two shinies I duped for everyone that I’ve had for nearly a decade. Only reason I bred them back in late 2016 was just before my friends and I got out of VGC and because I’d wanted to try some pivoting shenanigans with it, but never got the chance to.
>>59577678>emboar used mold breaker earthquake
>>59577662Instead of being a retard crying baby that is crying on 4chan because he wasted 2 hours for a shiny? In the end, the only one that wasted 2 hours is you. LOL>>59577672>How is it a waste when its my team lead next comp 2 hours for something that takes 10 minutes. thatr's why. >Ill hit champions with it too and shit on you lmao Probably not. If you are this mad because of something you did not see, imagine when you are losing. >I was 302 with a fucking mega gyarados team running no protectI believe you,
>>59577678Respects stocks go to the moon
>>59577684Why couldnt you grind one in za then pussy lmao
>>59577618Premier Ball is the official shiny ball faggot
Will next season be better? Will we be getting more cutscenes?
>>59577688>nooo you cant be better at the game than me either You probably run fake out on sneasler lmao
>>59577677Just put something up, ask for a Level 100 male one and let me know if you want a Lure or Premier Ball. It’s also from Sun because I don’t have a switch and by extension ZA.
>>59577678you'd be playing a fan game or something>>59577691read the second part of my post againyou spent 2 hours shiny hunting for your golisopod so i know you have the time to do so
>>59577693At least it will be different.
>>5957769320% more rockslides
>>59577697So youre just a faggot then lmao you had a big melty over me calling you a little bitch huh that stung didnt it
>>59577695Better? In what way wasting time looking for shinies translate in being better at the game?
>>59577701>you had a big melty over me calling you a little bitch huhhave you tried reading any of the posts you've written in this thread so far
>>59577706>oh shit I do run fake out on sneasler better go on the attack againKek I wouldve throat chopped your basculegion that you thought you could switch your gambit with

>>59577716Its not even a za alpha lmfao you kwabs
>>59577709So.. a guy with this team mind broke you so bad that you think everyone is him? That explains the crying. Still pathetic but understandable.
>>59577724I know english must be hard from you but that was an absolutely retarded response that made zero sense kek
>niggas dont care but they cant stop making up cope about their genned Nintendo ds pokemon Uh oh melty!
>>59577713you threw a tantrum before i'd even had a chance to call you a single mean namei'm not sure why you think the time you spent shiny hunting should count for anything if this is what you would be doing with it otherwise
>>59577735Calling you pussy retards isnt throwing a tantrum lmfao youre the ones crying that you got called out for being faggots
>ITT
>>59577739Yes the genners are shaking in their ds boots
>>59577696Ok, lure ball pls. I sent a female froslass
>>59577738>Calling you pussy retards isnt throwing a tantrumit is when it's preceded by 15 posts complaining that other people get to have shiny pokemon tooor have you conveniently decided that you're not mad about that anymore even though it's the only reason you're here in the first place and you are still actively whining about it
>>59577728You don't read your own posts, anon? btw>I know english must be hard from youFOR
