Why are gay people unable to control their libido?
Women always complain about men being wolves, but gays are on a whole other level holy shit.
I think they die if they don't talk about dick every 3 minutes.

You usually don't sacrifice bulk on VGC Toad. He's there to support as long as he last.

I heard there was blatant hacked Pokes.
Anyone have any posts of them? What happened to them? I'm guessing nothing but nerd rage

Next round pairings are up

>>30668924
Beast Ball Porygon 2. People sperged.

Can't blame them. The nigger can't even cheat right.

>>30668924
Please don't even bring it up

What are people running on Lele?

>>30668928
What was the error?
>>30668934
Besides sperging, did anything happen? Rules don't say anything about incorrect ball on Porygon 2

Calling the tranny being on stream next.

>>30668935
Too late, enjoy pointless fucking shitposts for 500 more

>>30668924
Just Joshua's Porygon 2 on a Beast Ball. The other suspension were due to players not being able to write things properly, hence why only the affected mons got out and not the Trainers themselves.

>>30668942
Moonblast/Psychic/Shadow Ball most likely
>>30668944
Wrong Nature/Items

>>30668954
And moves. There's someone who wrote his mon had Protect twice.

>>30668944
Really dumb shit. Held Item: Adamant, putting protect twice. Notably Wolfe had it happen.
And no, nothing happened to the beast ball guy.

>>30668944
Porygon is gift only and you can't breed them, so it's impossible to get one in a beast ball. Therefore he hacked to get his Porygon. Technically hacked pokemon aren't supposed to be tournament legal but nobody gives a shit and all the major players do it. Most of them at least have the courtesy to breed a second generation of semi-legal pokes off of their hacked perfect ones but nobody bothers actually breeding them from scratch.

I mean, nobody actually believes that people manually bred a team of six shinies with perfect IVs, natures, hidden abilities etc.

>>30668967
> and you can't breed them
what did he mean by this? you can breed balls on genderless pokemon just fine

>Only two UK players with a x-2 record left

Do britcucks have a chance? Or will they get cucked out of their tournament?

>>30668971
Germans are worse. Literally all of them have a brown player character. You can't make that shit up.

>>30668924

I think the guy got his championship points taken away
Should have been DQed on spot but eh, still better than literally nothing Gay Rizzo got for his Dream Aegislash

>>30668981
Hopefully not. The less of /vp/ rabble we get here the better.

>>30668783
I'm in love with lele chan!!!

>>30668986
He meant that you can't breed an Beast Ball on Porygon

Anyone have a good setup for Minior? I feel like using him all of a sudden

>>30668986
>Porygon is gift only
Can't you read? It's literally impossible for Porygon to be in anything but a normal Pokeball.

>>30668986
Even if you catch a Ditto with a Beast Ball it won't pass it down to the porygon offspring, since the only one you can get comes in a pokeball ALL LEGAL porygons will be in pokeballs.

Genderless pokemon bred with dittos pass down their own ball 100% of the time, never the Dittos.

>>30668998
Hacked parents aren't illegal.

>>30668967
>six shinies with perfect IVs, natures, hidden abilities
I haven't seen anyone run more than 1 shiny in the entire tourney

Besides that, it's not impossible to have multiple perfect shinies nowadays, just powersave 999 rare candies and 999 gold bottle caps and you're good to go

They deserve it. All you have to do it write it down without fucking up.

How in depth are the hack checks for SuMo? Like if you can pass getting online are you good? Or are they checking boxes too?
I only ask because I'm going to enter Regionals and Mid-Seasons and don't want to fuck it up

>>30669043

It's that + no master/cherish ball on bred + no bad HAs

>>30669043
>SuMo

>Like if you can pass getting online are you good?
Obviously. Since when has Gamefreak hack check ever been good?

>>30668987
Tbh I also thought about using the brown character given the Hawaiian setting and shit.
Then I realised the MC is supposed to be from Kanto so I went with standard anime white + brown hair instead.

>>30669011
Surprised that this wasn't the excuse Josh used to get out of this predicament; the charges would have been dropped immediately, because it would mean that it is 100% not his fault for receiving a beast ball proygon

>>30669067
He wasn't punished.

>>30669067
He didn't get out simply because he's not Ray.

Plus, after the previous Ray shitstorm they probably didn't wanna take any more chances.

Did we ever get source on the dude getting penalized anyway? I've not seen anything confirming it yet.

>>30668971
Asians have a massive boner for blonde white characters. See: Lillie

>>30669077
Didn't mean punished by the officials, but punished by the community; his twitter is locked and shit.

>>30669081
No.
The supposed punishment is nonsense, they would've DQed him

>>30669067
It depends on how you read the rules. Rules says something like "if there's proof of external applications you may get disqualified", or something like that.
>>30669077
He wasn't DQ, but he got told that he would receive no CP due to that Beast Ball. Shame we only have hearsays on that one, we should get some info as this matters.

>>30669095
>But punished by the community
Oh no the sub elo shitters and retards who don't even play comp will call him a hacker and cheater! Whatever will he do? He's over and finished! Woe is him!

Do you even listen to yourself?

Fuck yes she's back!

>>30669103

That was a bad argument; infact, that was not an argument.

>>30669163
Neither was yours.

The only "community" he gives a shit about is the competitive community and surprise surprise the competitive community of which he's part from doesn't give a shit about his beast ball because they all hack their shit in too. He ain't getting ostracized by no one. Getting shitposted by retards is not getting ostracized. If people shitpost you ignore them like the retards they are.

Joshua's not Ray, so they used point 1 instead of 3.

Using scald will get you the burn frequently enough over time to not be BS. VGC is designed to make luck even out over enough rounds, metas like '16 when everything's so luck-based an elementary school kid can go positive in a major tournament are the exception.

Holy shit all this salt

Why are VGC "top" players such a whiny bunch?

who's the cute commentator girl

also, do people hack Pokemon into these tournaments? I've never watched before but if they do that's fucked up

>buffing rain by giving it to a tailwind setter

>>30669725
This. Silvally and Milotic were both better choice than Metagross

>>30669762
Instant gratification generation.
Millennials who find out that actions have consequences.

It's hilarious to see.

>>30669765
I can guarantee you over half of the players there have. It's always been the case.

>>30669765
none will admit it but most if not all are using hacks, sometimes there are slip ups such as the p2 in an unobtainable ball

I'm loving the Silvally though. Wonder that its spread was.

Oh, I found the retard who wrote Porygon instead of Porygon 2

>>30669762
They're entitled.

>>30669762
So why did he get so pissed off?

>>30669767
If weather wars become a thing, I wonder if we'll be seeing Z-weather moves, the +1 speed is pretty nice

>>30669762
didn't he storm off after losing a game last year

lmao

>>30669791
Probably mixed. To make most us of Ice Beam and Multi Attack. Having a Grass Type wtih Ice Beam is pretty damn cool, and smart.

What's with the Verlisfags in here?

FUCK, did I miss it? Is it on liberty garden?

He can't make day 2 so he's gonna give up. Because god forbid He the WORLD CHAMPION has to go through day 1 like all the other plebs unlike he the WORLD CHAMPION.

>>30669800
something about TPCi fucking up tournament organization in europe and the way top cut is handled at this tournament. Arash easily comes off as a whiny bitch but he may have a reason to.

>>30669783
Are you okay?

>>30669831
That's not why he's mad at all dude. Look at the post above yours.

>>30669818
thing with silvally is that if you don't invest in speed it's probably decent both in trickroom and tailwind. Guess i'll try it on showdown.

DDDDRRRRYYYYYYAN HART!
So funny to see Ryan "Oh my days" Hart commentating Pokemon.

>>30669795
What? What happened here?

i want to see francesco pardini match

>>30669836
Well, he's not wrong.

Look at all the people getting mad about getting penalized for not filling in the sheets right. They broke a rule, get penalized and get mad about it. I mean, c'mon.

>>30669003
Sash, smash, and eq/stone edge/acro for physical, power gem/dazzle/psychic for special. It builds itself. If you're feeling cute/lucky, I guess you can replace sash for white herb.

>>30669738
Anejiru 2

>>30669831
Tbf, having only 8 cut from 14 rounds of Swiss is a bit drastic considering the first few rounds vary wildly in terms of opponent quality, and make resistance highly volatile even if you do go 13-1 or 12-2 somehow.

>>30669827
in the OP ffs

What are my chances of fuggin this buck toothed sleepy looking commentator girl

because tcpi was so stupid to host the most important tournament of the year other than worlds 2 weeks after the game came out. No one can reasonably be expected to play through the game, figure out the meta, catch a tapu koko with the right hidden power, train it to level 100 (as well as your celesteela), obtain 10 bottle caps and still do enough battles with your team to get acquinted to the meta well enough. Even players who normally legitimately train all their pokemon have resorted to hacking this time.

Tbh I'd kinda have liked to see the glorious mess that this tournament would have been if hacking sm was impossible.

>>30669885
Her twitter profile shows her husband.

>>30669857

I saw no maymay builds

Just a shitty stall attempt with bamboowaifu and balkduck

>>30669885

She's British so just take her down to the local chip shop for a 3 wing feed and you're guaranteed a gobby at the least.

>>30669881
Wait for real it's top 8 for 549 people in 14 rounds of swiss?

>>30669881
Wait, they are making top 8? Now this is something worth complaining about. They had been doing x-2 for a while now. What the heck man?

>>30669885
0

>>30669900
>English

>>30669836
I'm perfectly fine. I just think it's hilarious that people are getting asspained for not following the rules.

>>30669854
This. No matter how dumb the rules are, they're still the rules. So, I don't get why people are so MAD.

>>30669906
yeah pretty much
unless you go on a crazy winning streak you're fucked since records carry over from day1 to day2

>>30669857
Link to stream?

>>30669906
Yep, x-2's from day 1 qualify for day 2, but carry their records over. If you're 7-2 you absolutely have to win all 5 matches and play the strongest opponents available each round.

>>30669908
The thing is is that there are so many rounds of swiss that there won't even be 8 people who went x-2 or better

From what I'm gathering, there's a rule where you have to write down your team?

And someone didn't write it down correctly, got DQ'd, and then was bitching about being DQ'd?

>>30669690
lol I asked him how hard is it to write it correctly. And TCG players have to do it too and they don't complain
Afterwords, he deleted the tweet

>>30669925
>>30669927
That's so odd, but then I suppose it functions really similar to having a top 32 and knockout ie needing to win 5 in a row to win anyway.

>>30669944
They didn't get DQ'd, they got one of their pokemon removed from their team.
And that someone is the world champion.

>>30669944
Exactly. They blame TPCI.

>>30669938
x-2 only applies to day 1. Top 8 is best 8 records after 9+5 matches over both days.

>>30669944
Yes.

>>30669945
excpet arash had nothing to do with the team sheet fiasco so I don't know what you're trying to asses here.

>>30669938
Then make it x-3. Or at least top 16.

Top fucking 8 is absolutely fucking retarded.

>>30669944
Pretty much, but rather than DQ they were just disallowed to use the Pokemon whose info they put down wrong.

Also, not just one person but a bunch of people.

>Break a rule
>Wtf rules don't apply to me
Fantastic

>>30669954
I know.
I'm saying that if there WAS x-2 there would be less than 8 people in top cut
Reading comprehension.

>>30669951
Actually, Wolfe is the only one of 16' Worlds' top 4 who didn't have a mon DQ'd

Both TCG and VGC requires you to write down you deck/team respectively.
Incorrect writing results in replacing the card(s) with energy or the Poke getting removed.
It's in the rules in plain English. Everyone knows about it because you have to do it in every tournament

>>30669975
His P2 got DQed

>>30669944
According to wolfe the list would only be used for team commentary so everyone went lazy.

>>30669973
My bad.

>>30669984
Meant for >>30669944

>>30669954
Except Top 8 on a +500 tourney is fucking retarded. VGC players have been complaining about resistance top cuts for years and they had finally stopped doing them last season and everyone rejoiced. And now they are bringing them back, at arguably the most important tourney of the season. It's full retard. One step forward, two backwards.

>>30669975
Wolfe has been bitching about it because Markus got his Gastrodon DQ and he has to defend his bf from evil poo poo head TCPi.

>>30669986
>DQ'd
why?

>>30669944
As I understand it the problem is that in sm it's possible to pkhex your battle box while keeping it locked so the hack check won't notice (which was impossible last gen). There's actually a tweet of a player showing he's pkhexing his team mid-tournament (saying how guilty he feels about doing it). So the organizers panicked and started using any discrepancy between the written down teams and the battle box teams as proof that the team has been altered, even in the dumbest situations like wolfe writing down porygon instead of porygon2.

It's again because of the stupidity of tcpi to host a major tournament like this 2 weeks after the game's release, now game freak couldn't patch this exploit out in time.

READ
THE
THREAD

HOLY FUCKING SHIT

How do you people function in real life?

>>30670004
It's been in the rules for years. You have to write down your team and it cannot change it after it's been check and you turned in your cart to be hack checked.
Also, if you can't write down Porygon2 properly it's your own damn fault. It's not TPCi's fault you can't write down properly and double check their work. They know it's in the rules and what happens

>>30669801
This might work since all Golduck on rain teams run Swift Swim because why wouldn't you. Although it can start to run Cloud Nine just to counter that and if you're a Sand stream/sun setter, you're getting hit by a water z move from that golduck anyways. Golduck is just too good with always having the option to outspend everything if it wants too

>>30670004
Thing is, teamsheets don't allow for EV spread or IV modification detection. Ffs Gamefreak, is it so hard to implement a checksum function?

>>30670081
they DID have one, that didn't work in ORAS

>>30670052
for not writing right the fucking name of pokemons

>>30670065
> M-MUH RULES

Truly, moralfags are the worst.
TCPi is fucking retarded for using a rule like this without informing the players properly. Absolutley pathetic.

Man, what a clusterfuck.

Is TCG this full of drama and bad organization too?

Stream down?

>>30670103
You have no idea.

>>30670115
Examples?

>>30670065
there's a difference between enforcing rules to the letter and enforcing rules in spirit, writing down porygon when you've only ever been using porygon2 in the tournament shouldn't get your porygon2 banned because anyone who's not a robot can easily see the misunderstanding. Miracle seed vs plate shouldn't really be a problem either, markus' gastrodon being the wrong nature is the only one that could actually be suspected of being changed mid-tournament.

>>30670092
The rule has been a thing for years, it's just that it's not enforced as stringently in many places. It's unfortunate, and a fucking disgrace teamsheets are a thing in 500+ strong tourneys in >the current year.

Btw, according to a veteran, they used to enforce all caps in mons' names prior to gen 5, so it could always be worse eh

>>30670126
Cheating on stream, ex yugioh players stealing cards, altering their decks mid tournament, etc.

>>30670133
This. Porygons banned because of forgetting a 2 is idiotic if that's the only error.

Natures and writing Protect twice are justified though since the first one changes the whole pokemon and the latter could be seen as hiding a move you changed/plan to change.

>>30670092
Truly you must be using sarcasm. These people have been playing for years and seen the result of what happens when you fuck up writing down your team. This a common issue and it's their own damn fault falling into it.
Also, it's only a 8 page document written in plain English. Read the rules!

>>30670133
It's an international tournament. They have to enforce it to the letter.
>Oh so we should DQ a person using a Beast Ball Porygon2 even though it's not in the rules, but we shouldn't enforce a rule about Legal Team Incorrect Battle Box
Fuck off. You know they have to enforce the rules harshly at this level. It's not a local tournament

So who are we even cheering for now?

Writing Protect twice is pretty shifty, how would you not notice that mistake

>>30670218
>it's only a 8 page document written in plain English. Read the rules!

> Expecting people to read 8 fucking pages so they can battle Pokemon

It's bullshit and you KNOW it.
Writing shit down? IT'S 2017 HOLY SHIT!

Oh this guy wrote Porygon instead of Porygon2! END OF RINE, DING DONG BANNU!! Do you fucking realize how stupid this is man? HE FORGOT A NUMBER!

> B-but technically Porygon is a different moon from Porygon2!!

Consider suicide.

>>30670231
No matter who wins everyone loses

>>30670103
As a Yugioh player >>30670152 this is all the exact same shit we see at tournaments too. If Pokemon is the same I'd bet magic is just as bad too. There's a little more to it, you won't usually see a DQ for misspelt card names unless they're looking for a reason to DQ you. You do see cheating on stream and people changing lists tho. People are always shitty.

>>30670302
