I really dont like the lv.50 thing it limits the power of your pokemon and I think all the ruals are messed up too.

Well, I went to the Pokemon 10th aniversary tourny, and got PWNed so badly. I just examinded what teams other winners used, made a note of the six most used pokemon, and used thouse. I got my friend to train them to level 100. Didn't even know about EV's/IV's back then.

I love level 50 pokemon. I have a bunch. Since I'm not that far away from New York, I may try to get in. Wait, now that I think of it, I may be on vaction near LA. Wonder which I may try to do...

The only reason I got beat was because I only trained my guys up to like lvl 70. I was lazy and forgot it was coming up honestly.

Some stupid people didn't use ubers so I still got past a team of Eeveelutions (which was a pretty sweet time IMO). It's too bad they didn't ban legendaries.

There are two things you can take advantage of in this: Wobbuffet and Garchomp. If you lead with the standard Yanmega or Crobat and Wobbuffet, you can put to sleep one of your opponents Pokemon and Encore the other one. Then you are free to set up a sweep. The other thing you can do is lead with Hippowdon and Garchomp with Brightpowder. Sub up on the first turn with Garchomp and let Sand Veil do the rest while you Swords Dance sweep. That seems easy, but other people will be taking advantage of this as well. That's what I meant by it would be a coin flip. Some hax items are only deadly with certain Pokemon, but Focus Band, Brightpowder, and Quick Claw are just >_>.

I have a question about the DS tourny. Why won't it let me enter!?!
 
RE: (4) Official Pokemon Showdown DS Tournament, DP79 Spoilers, Official Platinum Website Now Up, New Pokemon TCG Change

I can't wait until the Pokemon Showdown. But I just registered for an account and took the quiz. Registering was a problem because the page wouldn't load last night. I better start training

Is that why I hardly ever see competitive double battles?
 
RE: (4) Official Pokemon Showdown DS Tournament, DP79 Spoilers, Official Platinum Website Now Up, New Pokemon TCG Change

No, it's why you never see Wobbuffet and Brightpowder.

I think the reason you don't see competitive doubles is that ShoddyBattle doesn't support double battles yet, so there's no way to test out a team before training it in-game.
 
RE: (4) Official Pokemon Showdown DS Tournament, DP79 Spoilers, Official Platinum Website Now Up, New Pokemon TCG Change

Oh, I see. I never downloaded ShoddyBattle or Netbattle, so it was always a wonder for me on how single battle tier lists could be everywhere, yet double battle tier lists are nowhere to be found.
 
RE: (4) Official Pokemon Showdown DS Tournament, DP79 Spoilers, Official Platinum Website Now Up, New Pokemon TCG Change

NetBattle has Doubles, but not for the 4th Generation.
 
RE: (4) Official Pokemon Showdown DS Tournament, DP79 Spoilers, Official Platinum Website Now Up, New Pokemon TCG Change

This tournament is a joke. They ban Phione, but keep Wobbuffet? That is messed up...

Hax items will easily be a hit in this tourny.

The Lv. 50 rule is just dumb as well.

The test sounds ridiculously easy too. I mean, even your average 10 yr. old could answer a good amount of those questions...
 
RE: (4) Official Pokemon Showdown DS Tournament, DP79 Spoilers, Official Platinum Website Now Up, New Pokemon TCG Change

Also, the Register page takes forever to load. If they wanted people to try and enter, you'd think they'd try a little harder. :/

dmaster out.
 
RE: (4) Official Pokemon Showdown DS Tournament, DP79 Spoilers, Official Platinum Website Now Up, New Pokemon TCG Change

I know! I tried to get a "My Pokemon" account, but 10 minutes later, it was like it had froze.

It was also funny how they had "in case we have over 128 players pass the quiz" It should have been "We will randomly select 128 players that passed the quiz." They should have known more thna 128 players would pass. Anyone that knows about EVs could pass the quiz, let alone anyone that is somewhat decent in competitive battling.

Your last statement is true...
