/vp/ Winter Ball Discussion Thread.

Wigglytuff.

>>29906143
The preliminary team we made last night was

>Viol
Fuckle/Specs Weedle/Citizen Snips
Landorus-T named REMOVE GENIES
Talon flame named Bravest Bird

>Vanille
Vaporeon
Something cute but powerful from a lower tier like Cinccino
Something huge and terrifying like Mega Aggron

>>29906143
>best represents their board
Garbodor with spikes set, because we all keep coming back, even though we die a little every time.

>>29906578
I actually unironically like this idea. Vanille loves all Pokemon, is a typing and role we'd like to have, and he's from a lower tier. I say we replace Cinccino with Garbodor

Hello! /x/ here.
Basically we would like to tag along with you guys and make it a 4some date.

/tg/ and /his/ already said ok.

We could have a historic spooky pokemon RPG!

>>29907185
I mean I'd be OK with it. We had a lot of fun last year with you guys. I don't speak for the rest of the board though.

>>29907185
How about no. /tg/ is ours now, back off, bitch.

>>29907185
I don't see why not.

>>29907446
That's okay /tg/ said already that you are the real date. Noone steals anyone
>>>/x/18331021

>>29907446
>back off, bitch.
Why not? We have had great fun last year. Also don't be rude

>>29906143
Please leave and never come back.
Seriously. Get the fuck out with this cringey shit.

I hope you guys start getting banned again.

>>29907185
I can do another poll like last year and by that I mean lazily use the same one again

>>29907446
Your concern is understandable but /x/ was very courteous last year and were helpful in keeping our threads afloat during all the chaos.

>>29907528
Then in that case we accept you with open arms /x/. We had a lot of fun last year and I feel this year will be even better! While Viol already has a date this year I don't see why you couldn't go with /his/'s male tan. I'm pretty sure he's just hanging out with Teej and keeping an eye on his granddaughter /his/toria

>>29907744
This has nothing to do with pokemon.

Keep your shitty fanfiction characters to yourselves, and out of the boards.

>>29907788
how nu .ru

>>29907794
Stop spamming your stupid cringe-inducing, offtopic shit on every board like some kind of plague.

You guys get banned every fucking year, and then you just come crawling back like you think everyone's forgotten how stupid and terrible all this shit is, and how you guys act like you're somehow special or entitled to make offtopic threads for your little personal project.

Fuck you guys.

>>29907910
>fun not allowed

>>29907995
>offtopic spamming should be specially allowed for my group's little project

Get wrecked.

>>29906415
What about giving Vanille a particularly bloodthirsty Clefable?

>>29908252
>Clefable
We don't need too much OU THE MOVIE

https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Board-tans/vp
Could one of you nice /vp/ anons help out, this info is horredously out of date.

>>29908267
How about a Mega Steel? It's huge, terrifying, we should have a mega for flavor reasons, and its in the lower tiers.

>>29908466
Mega Steelix* god I hate spellcheck.

>>29908466
>>29908501
Mega Steelix could work. I do think her second Mon should be something cute and unassuming that is actually pretty useful. Cinccino flinch hax comes to mind as does Eviolite Porygon2

>>29907910
It's tradition.

>>29908943
No, you fucktard. It's you and your crew being a bunch of idiots every year until you inevitably get banned.

Your "tradition" is producing terrible fanfiction involving your DONUT STEEL characters named after 4chan boards while pretending that this is somehow endorsed or supported by 4chan as a whole, only to get banned and removed once people recognize that you guys are just going to keep spamming these shitty threads every day.

Fuck your "tradition." Get the fuck out.

>>29909021
Nah.
Plus it's not just about OC, it's also getting creative with boards you might not normally visit.

>>29908873
What if instead of Steel in it was Celesteela or Guzzlord?

>>29907910
>>29909021
>>29909308
Eh, 3/10 bait, tried too hard.

>>29909595
>oh fuck, I need to do some kind of damage control after being blown the fuck out

Sad.

>>29909551
It needs to be a Pokemon that is programmed into Showdown. That is where /tg/ challenged us and I doubt they have copies of Sun and Moon yet.

>>29909619
That was my first post in this thread tho. I think you need some hapiness in your life, man.

>>29909659
>not the first post from this IP

>>29909659
What part of you and your fellow board-tan fags being blown out has changed?

Take your vanity project and shove it up your giant, collective, unified anus.

>>29909693
First post relating to you might have been more apt? still doesn't make much of a difference.

>>29909724
>you

But that was my first post, as anyone with 4chan X will tell you.

>>29909724
Exactly. You getting called out for being a bunch of spamming fags has not changed.

>>29909645
Oh, well that's wholly disappointing. When is the ball happening? Like first week of December? In that case I say mega gengar or just gengar as one of her mons.

Why don't we either elect a trip or run polls for these decisions so we don't end up with retarded shit like this because everyone has their own ideas?

>>29909779
Their thread got shut down. Also they didn't realize how slow /x/ is

>>29909750
Nor has the lack of relevance of your posts.

>>29909773
There isn't a set date yet but it'll probably be somewhere mid December to early January.
We want something from a lower tier so we don't completely overpower /tg/ with OU: THE MOVIE: THE TEAM. Their team is a mixture of tiers so I feel ours should be the same.

>>29909779
/x/ found /v/ doing the lewd with /d/ while /a/ watched.

>Winter ball is back
>We are going with /tg/ senpai again

Oh boy, time for fun. I remember having a blast last year

Is viol still a douchebag? Has enraged /tg/ become a ca/tg/irl and given him a whyboner yet?

>>29909843
But there was talk of Violence going full smogon fag after losing. Either way fair point. I guess I'll go back to lurking since I know fuck all about tiers.

>>29909866
Can you be a bigger, stupider faggot?
I don't think so.

When is the battling happening? How is it gonna work exactly?

/tg/ is definitely using Aegislash somehow, I'd bet on it


>>29909938

Sshh, it's okay bro, we're all anonymous, you can join in the fun without anyone taking away you street cred.

>>29909984
Might also use a salamance of some kind.

>>29909866
Viol is still a douchebag, haven't seen ca/tg/irl yet because Tiji shitposting on /tg/ has made it impossible. /tg/ is probably going to date us to up the ante on us asking them this year which means a lot more why boner and Viol insisting on his fair share of Teej.

3 is a crowd but i can let it slide, but 4 can be troublesome.

Sorry, /x/ but this ship has sailed.

>>29910018

I browse both boards, is it cheating to bring over information?

They're making teams based on their own caps and stories and such, maybe we should do the same. I know we must have SOMETHING of worth lost among all of the proud of its power lucarios

>>29909984
How about you take your "fun" spam and spam it in /b/ instead of making hundreds of threads all over this site? Which one is this? #5 on /vp/ alone?
And, what have you done so far, except for help convince everyone you're just a group of no talent faggots desperately hoping idiot newfags will mistake your vanity project for anything else?

>>29910059
Don't be that hard. /x/ has how many users? 10

We can handle them

>>29910068
Maybe we can show /tg/ our Reuniclus so they know we're interested.

>>29910054

Who the fuck is tiji?

>>29909903
You're right about that. He has a Showerp set and then 2 pokes from OU. We picked Bravest Bird and Lando-T.

Vanille is the Karenfag so it makes sense her Pokemon wouldn't be as optimized, though she can still put up a decent fight

>>29909984
The tier we picked was a custom match that had both teams using pokemon that best reflected their boards and tans. /tg/ has already made their team and it's actually pretty decent, though I won't post the picture here for fairness sake. Their tiers are all over the place though so I suggest we show them the same courtesy.

>>29910109
>>29910068

I wish we could incorporate "no es fake, es fada" in the team somehow. I thought using Zoroark and making it masquerade as a fairy type, but that doesn't really work now does it?

So what is the current OU: The Team: The Experience: The Card Game? Since half of it is gonna be viol's part

As for vanille, it gets a little trickier because too subjective. Do we just pick the pokemon more often associated with "it's shit, but it's my bro" on the board?

>>29910150
Why not just have Vanille use Ludicolo as her second mon?

The teams can be

>Viol
Showderp set
Bravest Bird
Lando-T

>Vanille
Vaporeon
No es fake
Something from the lower tiers that is huge and terrifying like Mega Steelix or Rhyperior.

>>29910121
The proposed female tan counterpart to Teej. Some anons have wanted her to represent /tg/'s softer and less hardcore side but a lot of people hate thatmore and more boards have been using the twin or multiple -tan angle to have more characters to play with.

Tiji has been proposed for a few years but has been unpopular because the people who want her don't want to put in the work themselves to make her (they're just the idea guys who want to decide the design they like) and one dedicated poster wants Teej out so that Tiji can be the only -tan, because Teej is "boring and barely liked or acknowledged by the board at large"

So basically waifufags trying to make a board game OC Donutsteel to fap to.

>>29910150
How would that work if we were set on doing that? It's been a while since I used Zoroark and which fairy? The best one or the more iconic one?

>>29910199
Rotom-W
Lando-T
Talonflame or Ferrothorn

>>29910215
Vanille should have a Cloyster. To really let them know what we want

>>29910215

Part of me kind of wants to give vanille Citizen Snips just for the hell of it, but the other part believes that'd be in poor form

What about Arcanine? Arcanine is pretty damn popular and is only UU, or is that too high a tier still?

>>29910268
No no, if we're going to do E speed it should be dragonite.

>>29910268
New proposal. How about

>Viol
Citizen Snips
Bravest Bird
Lando-T

>Vanille
Vaporeon
No es Fake
Dragonite/Arcanine

>>29910328

>Citizen Snips and Lando-T

Poor /tg/. We're monsters.

Let's do it. But I vote viol's half isn't the first one out.

>>29906143
Ctrl-f fug
> Zero results
I know he's uber but if we have a team to represent this board then we need the fug

>>29910328
Vanille's team is starting to feel like a raindance team.

>>29910361
Can't be mega fug though, it'd just be going full no fun then. Would be on Viol's team then.

>>29910359
We could also switch Citizen Snips out for something else. Other popular options were Fuckle and Specs Weedle

>>29910361
While I agree 100%, we want /tg/ to have a fighting chance.

>>29910328
Shouldn't they all be called DICKS?

>>29910372

With Arcanine in it? Maybe if Dragonite was there, but if so, you know.

So we're not running charizard? Pretty much the poster boy for "it sucks but shiet, charizard"

Although with the overuse I can see even the karenfags being a little tired of it. Although I can't help but think that DORAGON KUROU and BURASTO BAAN became worthy memes after the shitstorm. Could put it instead of bravest bird

>>29910445
Give them an uber as well?

>>29910467
But if we use Charizard we'll win for sure.

Just have Vanille use Greninja with Water Shuriken, Cut, etc.

Fuck, we're being invaded by the faggot board-tan crew.

Don't you fags have a policy against "puppeting" and all that? Get out of here, you shameless shitposters.

>>29910498

What, running fucking Blast Burn? I'd say that gives them a fighting chance.

What were the other moves Alain had, again? I only remember dragon claw and blast burn

>>29910524
That one is pretty much closed already.
With 95% yes.

>>29910505
>implying we're not /vp/osters

Go back to crying about Citra framerates, waiting 4/9 days for launch, fapping to MILFs, and asking the same retarded questions 300 times. I'm sure you find more quality there.

>>29910487
Well considering their teamyou didn't get this from mean. maybe we could match their tiers.

>>29910585

delet

>>29910585
These fugs just googled popular mons

>>29910524
Hey there guys. /tg/ here. I'm the guy in charge of making the polls and junk and I have an website bit of a request.

I would love it if you didn't post the poll itself into other threads. Info about the poll is fine but the actual poll itself is not. Nothing personal mind you, I love you guys. I just don't want the poll results being skewed by people who aren't on /tg/. Is that fair?

>>29910545
Flamethrower, Steel Wing, and Thunderpunch

>>29910574
Love you /vp/-chan

>>29910626
gotcha man deleted post

It saddens me Blood Totem hasn't been considered yet
Also, is this OU cause Mence and Aegislash seem like the sort of things /tg/ would use despite them being Uber

>>29910631

>five moves

cheating motherfucker, no dignity

Still, I think putting in megazard with the shitty mixed moveset would be fun.

We still have to decide on Vanille's last pokemon though, dragonite or arcanine?

>>29910624
They made a.team based of their stories, memes, and aesthetics. They just happened to be good Pokemon. We sent an ambassador to their thread to help them team build movesets and stat spreads and stuff but the Pokemon themselves were all picked by /tg/.

>>29910678
Dragonite

>>29910714

Dragonite is already OU though and it's been for a while, I think it'd eclipse the smogonfag-karenfag distinction we want to make. It's not like Arcanine is a shitmon anyway

>>29910677
It's a custom game. We can bring whatever we want, though we do have to err on the side of fairness. Remember that /tg/ isn't as experienced as us so even if their Pokemon choices like Aegislash are strong, it won't be like battling someone who actually plays ubers.

>>29910734
what about pyroar to show our noble hearts to them?

>>29906143
How about we make something like the 4ch cup with all boards but with pokemon instead?

>>29910734
What about moving Snibs to Vanille, since Showderp is the embodiment of "fuck smogon".

>>29910765

Hey, you reminded me of something

Does anyone have that "the lion sweeps tonight" screencap? It was a fun day.

>>29910769
Great idea but we should put that on the back burner for now, at least until the Winter Ball is over.

>>29910754
Cool. Shame JustinRPG and his stories and songs didn't originate here, Reshiram and Lugia would be solid picks and even Moltres if we don't want to be total fags

>>29910781

I like it!

So Vanille's team would be

Vaporeon
No es fake (Ludicolo)
Citizen Snips

In theory we could also substitute no es but I quite like it.

What about Viol, is he getting BURASTO BAAN of smile breaking?

>>29910754
How about this:
FUG @ Dragon Fang
-Fly
-Strength
-Surf
-Dragon Rage

So here's what I have so far for the teams.
>Viol
Citizen Snips/Fuckle/Specs Weedle/Blood Totem
Megazard X
Lando-T

>Vanille
/vp/oreon
No es Fake
Arcanine

>all the faggots from /tg/ came over to /vp/ to defend their thread

You fags are disgusting. You're like plague of locusts.

>>29910873
Updated with posts before mine

>Viol
Fug
BURASTO BURN
Lando-T

>Vanille
/vp/oreon
No es Fake
Citizen Snips

>>29910781
I feel like Showderp suits Vanille, because even when he's using shitmons and memesets, he's convinced he can blow out other hardcore players because of his skills. It's like his moonlighting gig.

>>29910849
>Using Fug as an hm slave
How could yoi

>>29910952
Viol better than Vanille*

Fucking hell

>>29910959
huh it's kinda weird to think that there's no such thing as HM slaves anymore

>>29910919

I feel like we need some more meme magic on that Lando-T. It's smogon, yes, but not much beyond that, and Fug and BURASTO BAAN have some history behind them AND are very strong

Any suggestions?

>>29910952
>>29910978
Well, you could just give FUG to Vanille, then. He seems like the type who would try to run an HM slave in battle.

>>29910952
I agree with this. Vanille can have Fug and Viol can have Citizen Snips

>>29911012
REMOVE GENIES

Can we at least switch out Dragon Rage?

Vanille is a karenfag but she's not fucking stupid. Also it would make the battle take way too damn long. Give it The Button instead

>>29911027
Wew it's confirmed. Both /vp/ twins are boys. Thanks for clearing that up

>>29910849
And make sure to give it "caught and used in-game" IVs, EVs, and nature.

>>29911012
Deadest bird for one last hooray since it's overshadowing gengar.

>>29911059
The Button works. I'm pretty sure they have an Aegislash so they should be able to handle it with some smart play. After all if they can't handle an outrage then they're fucked anyways.

>/tg/'s meme team actually turns out kinda viable
>/vp/'s meme team gimps itself into the ground

pottery

>>29911089
Hey they were fully set on using four female and two male luvdiscs with attract before they reminded themselves about the ides. Why they were trying to attract Viol, we'll never know.

>>29911112

>the ides

the what now?

>>29911059
What about Dragon Pause?

Alright so how's this for a team?

>Viol
Citizen Snips
BURASTO BAAN
REMOVE GENIES/Bravest Bird

>Vanille
/vp/oreon
No es Fake
HM slave Fug with The Button.

>>29911128

I approve of this. Just gotta decide between REMOVING GENIE or accepting that Deadest Bird is Dead

>>29911112
the anon who said that said he accidentally reversed the genders of the Luvdisc. Sorry anon.

>>29911204
Deadest bird. Vanille has Fug so we can't have two legendaries. Bad enough we have one that's horribly crippled.

>>29911204
I'm voting for REMOVE GENIES from a team perspective. We need those sneaky pebbles and intimidate. You guys are underestimating /tg/. They are dead set on giving us a fight we could be proud of so god damnit let's give them one back.

>>29911274
Then let's remove strength from Fug and give it another attack.
We could always go for stalling to see how good they are.

/tg/ apparently is going in as if beating us at our own game is the key to going further in the relationship, só they're giving it their all

I say we run genie and [/spoiler]lose on purpose after thoroughly shrekking half their team[/spoiler]

Are you implying Maid RPG isn't the most ballin and fun RPG system out there? Because you'd be wrong sir.

>>29911447
On the contrary.

While Teej is down to earth and level headed as a reasonable DM should.

Tiji is off the wall, Shadowrunnin' and transforming into Mopeds.

or alternatively, Tiji is Teej's Yostuba.

oh shit guys. We need to pick which Pokemon we breed for Teej this year. 2014 we have him Sableye, 2015 we gave him an entire caves worth of Zubat. We should breed him something neat this year. How about a Hawlucha named Los Tiburon?

>>29911737
Maybe two gifts this year? One gen 6 for the /tg/ player who won't get SM, and one new mon for the people with new games (or are jumping over Gen 6)

It's not like bank will be a thing until January.

I vote Hawlucha and Mimikyu

>>29911737
/tg/ gooer here, I am quite partial to alot of /tg/'s less known stories

perhaps a chesnaught named Woodsman after https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Son_of_a_woodsman

Or a Mawile called Noh based on
https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Noh

Though like >>29911814
Maybe a incineroar named Los Tiburon?

>>29911814
>Not giving them Luvdisc to symbolize the start of our relationship

>>29911871
Surprised Chesnaught hasn't been suggested, considering he's literally a Space marine Pokemon.

>>29911889
>giving a shitmon to someone who knows how to minmax

I get the gesture, but giving something actually useful would probably be better recieved.

I mean, would you rather Nintendo give you a good pokemon in a wifi distribution or Luvdisc?

>>29911947
.you do have a point.
I like this anons idea>>29911937
How about a Shiny Chesnaught named Spess Marine

>>29911871
Mawile would be cute, would compliment the sableye

Whoa whoa whoa. No

We already have citizen snips, having funbro would be overkill

Hey, guys. I'm going around to see what each board has planned for the ball, so far, and what sort of content they would like to come from their dates. /his/ and /x/ have slow boards, so it's going to take time for them to get back to me. Is there anything you want to see?

-t. Fa/tg/uy

>>29912836
We will beat you and then fuck you hard ...or making sweet love, we will see

Whats the spookiest Pokemon for the new gen? I could draw up some dress designs for /x/ to wear at the ball.

It does. It's like a benign fae that was classified as unseelie because of it's horrifying appearance. So it covers itself and tries to be something it's not. Don't you remember the song?

>>29913385
it wears the costume to be loved

>>29913385
It's basically a Gremlin thing that is scary to look at, so it pretends to be a Pikachu so people might like it.

>>29913430
And looking at its true form made some guy die of fright, don't forget that.

>>29913606
Supposedly, there's no proof.

Looks like /tg/ is hosting a random battles tourney to decide who will face us in battle. They really are going all out for us.
I love it

>>29913799
we got links or anything so we can watch?

>>29913859
They said they'll post links to the battles in their thread.

>>29913878
rad

some pretty hype battles over on /tg/.

Why are we still bringing another board with us? Does /tg/ have commitment issues?

We need a real man.

/tg/ poster here, just wanted to say.
Showdown is really fun to watch, i might get hooked on this.
Im grateful for the winterball for exposing me to this.

Where were you when Sefton got BTFO?

>>29914833
I made one for you guys too if you're interested in choosing the same way we did. I'll start it in 10 minutes.

>>29915017
Sure, why not.

>>29915017
I'm game

>>29915017
5 minute warning to the start of the tourney. We don't have to count this as the official one if we don't get a decent turn-out of people

>>29915155
Yeah, that would probably be best. The board seems a little slow right now.

>>29914922
Another /tg/ poster here... I was thinking, maybe, if you wanted to of course, you don't have to... we could hold a monthly /tg/vp/ tournament on your board from now on? For kicks?

>>29915205

I'm game.

I'm bound to not get destroyed eventualy.

>>29915205
It's a shame /polo/ has a monopoly on the drawfags.

>>29915205
Oh come now Adderall-kun. It requires give and take. We'd have to have a thread on our board too. Can't just shove all the work over to /vp/.

>>29915203
Ah well. no one signed up for the tourney so we'll try it again later when I'm home from work.

>>29915276
How do you even sign up? I didn't see a button.

>>29915276
It wasn't open to join

>>29915276
I didn't find the sign up button anywhere.

http://challonge.com/tournaments/signup/BgOaKt64no

>>29915276
Ah, yeah. I'm just worried about the mods and shitposters complaining. I mean, we already have to deal with that one guy(whom I'm almost certain is Virt) just for the winter ball. Maybe a Pokémon RPG general?

>>29915307
Alright the link seems to be working so in 10 MORE minutes the tourney will start. Maybe a bit sooner if my coffee break ends early.

>>29915331
That would work wonders.

>>29915350
Do you guys think 5 people is enough to have the official tournament? /tg/ only had 4 but we aren't the Pokemon board.

>>29915307
Goddamnit I can't participate due to a change of plans, I guess I'll just have a fun time watching the battle

>>29915478
Most of /vp/ is preoccupied with SM at the moment. It was leaked a couple of days ago.

>>29915478
Welp guys I have to go back to work. I'm gonna start the tourney. It's up to you if it's official or not.

>>29915478
it'll probs be fine

>>29915457
But they'd be killing Gojira

you better be sharing those fights to the rest of /tg/ here.

>>29915581
I can't find NebulaJoker

>>29915526
Can't speak for /vp/, but maybe it would be a good idea to set up the true tournament for tomorrow evening, so that more people could have the opportunity to see this thread in the meantime. Five people does seem a bit too little.

>>29915596
Give me like 2 mins to pop up.

Round 2:
http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/battle-randombattle-476158890

/tg/ dude who fought in tourney here.

Currently loling about with an ice mono team.

Might as well ask here seeing as it's a /tg/-/vp/ cross.

Is ice a bad type to mono with?

Is Cloyster a strong pokemon because he just raped in my last match.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/monotype-476158842

>>29916012
Ice is the literal worst thing to mono with, even over bug types.

And yes, cloyster is the best.

>>29916012
>bad mono
Yes
>Cloyster strong
You got lucky

>>29916012

Ice is THE worst defensive typing in the game. No resistances except for itself and a bunch of weaknesses

It's very good as an attacking type, but most ice types are meant to be slow and bulky, which doesn't work because of the type itself. So water types usualy do their job better, because most of them can get ice beam

A better type to mono could be water, electric or ground

>>29916012
Ice is a very unfortunate Type. It's basically made for fast offensive mons but gets a shitton of slow walls

Cloyster is great with shellsmash, Skill Link and moves like Rockböast or Icicle Spear that can hit 2-5 times. Shell Smash lowers both of your defenses and raises Speed and both attacking stats. Skill Link makes all 2-5 hit moves hit 5 times, great for breaking sturdy and Subs. Yes, Cloyster is great

>>29916303
No idea if that's good or not, but I like outspeeding people to get Earthquakes off before Electricity teams and whatnot.

>>29916257
A new generation is coming out in a few days, and mono Ice gets a few nice buffs. Probably best to wait until then. Alola Ninetales is a godsend.

>>29916339
If you're using Scarf Mamoswine, it should have Icicle Spear instead of Ice Shard.

>>29916373
Isn't that what Icicle crash is for?

>Citizen Snips
Someone post a good replay of him.

>>29916402
Yes, but you don't want to be locked into a weak move like Ice Shard, especially when you're already running an item to make you faster. If you're running a scarf set, you generally just want four attacking moves.

>>29915838
>>29915876
I saved the replay, but the file is too big to upload here. Does anyone computer-savvy enough know a way to work around this ?

Good show, you guys.

>>29917635
Anytime before the games drop would be ideal.

Do we have any plans after the fight? I was thinking a discord afterparty would be comfy and possibly allow us a refuge should it be too hard to keep a thread on here in the coming days.

>>29918245
Probably a Discord would be a nice idea. With SM leaked /vp/ is way too fast for pretty much every unrelated thread.

>>29918245
>>29918300
Gotta be careful with discord. Easy gateway to circle jerking. Could probably do it over in /tg/ if it's too crowded before going as far as discord.

Someone should get that simisear sweep cap so we can show /tg/

>>29918362
I'm fine with whatever you guys do, but I'll be leaving now anyway, 3am over here. Night.

>>29918245
I think a discord would be good. How about Thursday then? We can harness the maximum hype levels for Sun and Moon and channel it into the battle

/his/ here. I know we haven't talked much on your ends, and I don't know how many people on /his/ are actually working on something, but since you guys were talking about pairing Viol with Historia, I decided to draw it out.

I don't actually know Viol's exact age, but I think them being more or less the same age is cute.

>>29910068
You have to have Herdier since it is the originator of "literally my mom's dog" as well as Golduck for the "literally me" if we're talking screen caps. Perhaps a pikachu named "Pampers"?

I'd humbly suggest for our team something like:
-Lucario, specifically with the IVs for "proud of its power"
-Vaporeon, because that's just essential
-Herdier
-Golduck
-BRAVEST BIRD
-Specs weedle

Some other ideas: Pamperchu, an Arcanine named "perfectly healthy", citizen snips, hot monkey dick, and if we really want to dip into cancerous forced memes we could do a dragonite named "youchewb" and a celebi named something like "always wrong" or sokething gay.

I have no clue what sets to give any of them because I suck at battling. This is just my suggestion for a "board culture/forced memes-based" team.

>>29918362
Fair point, but I can always delete it if I feel like it's getting to be too much of a circlejerk. We can always retreat to /qa/ as well like last year.

>>29918543
Thursday would be fine with me. Do we have a set time already or do you want to make a poll to see when people can spectate?

>>29918758

I think we've pretty much got the team set by now anon, but it's nice to know there are still people coming in willing to help out. Citizen snips and vaporeon made it in, now we are at a toss up between bravest bird and REEEEEEEEEEEMOVE GENIE >>29911163

How about 3pm Pacific Standard Time?

>>29918829
Yeah, I made that post before reading the whole thread, because I'm an idiot. I am sad that specs weedle didn't make it, or an assault vest rain dance goodra. Minimizing cancer is definitely the best though, in the interest of a fun game. Citizen Snips not withstanding...

What are some gift ideas we can do for them?

>>29923338
a compilation of the history of Pokemon, cited with legitimate sources.

We could do a history of the franchise and how it changed over time along with an actual in canon retelling of the events in chronological order.

The issue becomes how many timelines are there and how they intermingle could make objective retelling of the history hard without presenting alternative conclusions.
