Yup.
Why is Tina Belcher a commentator?
>>27946401
Ban all legendaries, ban all megas. Gas all genies.
>>27946401
Ferrothorn and Talonflame aren't very common, lots of Kangaskhan and genies though. It's still lots of fun

do you even know the mechanics of the game? crits cut through def ups
>>27946931
Moody ain't shit.
thank god Justin trained that xerneas in crit chance
When is gf going to remove critical hits
>>27946950
It isn't except when it gets Evasion boosts.
Fuck off. It's a shitty strategy.
Why don't they just ban Xerneas?
>that autismo crowd
>>27946981
I agree, but honestly - smeargle is an amazing pokemon and it'd still be good without moody, but moody is its best ability. It's just dumb not to use it if the ruleset permits and smeargle is on your team.

maybe he can speak it but not really good so he feels better with a ''''''''''translator''''''''''
his translator is a mess
You mexicans are ok and your accent is funny and jolly Id just prefer if youd stop using so many english words in your vocabulary is all. Comes up as if you are sucking US dick too hard.
Spanish has all the words you need.
>>27947178
i think he can speak it but he doesn't have the confidence to do it

>>27947213

he can, but not very well and isn't used to do it so having a translator is probably the better choice. or it would be if it was a good one
I hope Sebastian wins so we can have panchito translate his victory speech
This is the year of panchito
would you a sebastian? y/n
>>27947212
>sucking US dick because of english words in vocabulary
So my guess is after all these years the US have just been sucking british dick?
Pokken masters top 16 going on right now. There will probably be a Darkrai announcement at the awards ceremony, maybe also Scizor and Empoleon if we're lucky.
Bretty gud battles so far.

I'd rather die than start saying "Pokemones" unironically

Thats not even correct, saying pokemons is fine
Pokemon is a proper noun not an english word
>weavile perfect with hardest weavile wallcombo
>>27947295
Nobody uses language for absolutely no reason, you idiot
Why does Yveltal never get used?
That Weavile Nip is fucking incredible
I want him to pull a tonosama and win the whole thing
>>27947353
what are you talking about
Okay real question: why the fuck is Deoxys banned?
It's not event exclusive any more.
>>27947357
Xernas is popular. But it has seen some use, yesteerday at least and during the year. Not sure if someone is doing well with it today
>>27947268
I'dbullyhim
>>27947357
It's used a bit but it's hard to use with Xerneas so common
>>27947268
He's cute, but he doesn't look 18 or older, so no.
>>27947357
>Weakness to Xerneas
>Nothing like first-turn Geomancy like Xerneas
>>27947413
>no Pachirisu on any team

Can't believe he's still butthurt over a tournament that happened more than a year ago.
>>27947381
Panchito hates Deoxys
>>27947413
I'll take big R thanks
>>27947357
lmao speed tier
only thing gud about it is boosted suckerpuch but good luck with xerneas and groudon
>>27947357
I used yveltal a ton back when dialga + kyogre and dual primal was common. Yveltal shits all over those teams. But now xerneas is popular again and a lot of teams have weavile or raichu, which yveltal also doesn't like.
>>27947413
but I don't like Xerneas
>>27947178
He will speak it but it will be like "uh..uh..uh yeah...like uhh i tink dat de best...uh.. um..." ect.
It's much easier to get to a point where you can understand a language than it is to be at a point where you can speak it on the fly. Ironically it's also easier to write than it is to speak most languages. There are a TON of people who can understand English but not really speak it on the internet since its the international language of the internet, but you don't get practice speaking it, just reading and listening to it and perhaps writing in it.
I once spent a few days with a Russian girl I met on the internet who was perfectly fine at communicating in writing with me but whenever she tried to speak she would stutter and mess everything up.
>>27947357
Yveltal does get used but it's not as common because of Xerneas
Most of the time Yveltal is used in conjuction with mega-mom or mega-maw's sucker punch or its own. It's used for Foul Play boosting too
>>27947323
Tell that to the RAE Pedro
>This sped up commercial

Don't forget a good chunk of luck. A good number of match are won because of a pokemon waking up at the right time or a crit.
Fuck this, the absolute state of this meta
I'm going to watch the TGC stream instead, any cardfags got any info on the state of that meta? I know nothing about it.
>>27947740
pokemon has a lot of RNG but now with the tournament format being what it is consistantly good play is rewarded.
although I think he does take lots of skill to use effectively fuck smeargle regardless

I kinda want to see a gay porno with these two
>>27947868
TCG 2016 format is pretty varied which is why it has such a high attendance this year
The strongest deck in the format is definitely Night March. There are 3 Pokemon in the game that have this move and it does 20 damage times the amount of Pokemon in the discard pile with the Night March attack, all for 1 DCE. You're basically hitting 180 turn one if you build your deck correctly and you're also winning the prize trade against EX based decks since Night March Pokemon are all NFE basics (the main attacker is - I shit you not - a 30 HP Joltik)

Fuck off, verlis. Timer is a legitimate win condition, and the rules don't forbid it, so you can use it if you want.
>Helping Hand fake-out

That match was boring. It was like Blake wasn't even trying.
Why is it that every time a jap is on stream, they always have to use their DS to stream the screen? Can't fucking read shit.
>>27948448
lightningrod supports yveltal on his team, idk if he has kyogre but if he does it supports that as well
>>27948551
you're right, helping hand fake out is better
>>27948565
because pokemon company BLOWS at streaming
>>27948485
He was 4-1 going into Round 6 according to the website so doing good
>>27948571
I used kyogre + yveltal for a while and found raichu was a far better fit than manectric was
manectric just up and died before it could do anything. At least raichu had fake out and sash

Did the Aerodactyl or Latias appear on stream at all?
>>27948688
did he died
>>27948760
how was aerodactyl utilised?
>>27948858
>Great Britain’s Matt Carter opted to bring the combination of Yveltal and Groudon to the competition, a bold choice for Friday given the expectation most players had that many Xerneas would be present. But his boldest choice was definitely selecting Aerodactyl for his team, a Pokémon he used as a more defensive alternative to Talonflame. Aerodactyl helped Matt’s team by using its natural Speed to use the Taunt, Tailwind, and Rock Slide moves before its opponents could attack. He differentiated Aerodactyl from Talonflame by using the Wide Guard move—which Talonflame can’t learn—to defend the team from spread attacks such as Eruption and Dazzling Gleam.
