Hello guys. This seems fun. Pretty quiet at the moment though.

>>32544544
It's always quiet around this time. Wait till tonight. Also this is the 4th thread

>>32545424
Oh good to hear.
What's a less popular type?

>>32547368
Grass from what I've heard.

Willing to play if anyone wants.
>>32547368
Fire, electric, grass, and ground seem unpopular. Most popular are fairy, water, dark, flying, and dark.

>>32547591
Grass and Fire seem like they would be fun to make!

Anyone around?

>>32548109
Hello

>>32548109

Never thought I'd see the day, /vp/ has always had a generous amount of Ground-bros.

Is there going to be enough people for this go ahead. It's so quiet compared to past iterations

>>32553212
Yes.

Anyone want t play?

>>32553385
I'll be home in an hour, and then I'm free to play for a while. I made a few changes to my team too, so we'll see how that goes.

>>32553495
Cool, will check back in a bit.

>>32553803
Cool, getting my 3ds right now.

>>32553803
Sorry, it's asking for an update, need a minute.

>>32553860
No worries, sucks that the update ruins saved battle videos.

>>32553871
Okay, finally finished. Sorry about that, going online immediately.

>>32553871
Tell me about it. I had saved every monobattle I've had with people on here. Made for some nice practice.

>>32553910
No worries at all, I'm just relaxing and enjoying my first night of summer vacation.

>>32553915
Yeah I love doing the practice battle thing, now that's all lost forever.

>>32553940
Congrats man, enjoy your vacation.

On game 2 why did you keep going for shadow sneak on shuckle?

Also when you finally did do knock off I lived with exactly 1hp.

>>32554071
Because:

A) I thought you would possibly switch to Scizor
B) If I used Knock Off you'd be free of Specs
C) I was hoping poison would proc right away
D) I was butthurt about it missing before

Also whoops I really wish I had sucker punched, lol. Good games.

>>32554093
I was worried you would. I have SP on galvantula but figured it was worth the risk as SP on hounchkrow would do near nothing.

I think shuckle has answered my prayers, that bird was giving me a ton of trouble last time me played.

>>32554111
Yeah I really need to figure out ways to deal with heavy hitters, it seems a bit too frail and slow for my liking. Right now I'm getting styled on.

>>32554123
If you're looking for bulk maybe look into mandibuzz. Bulky, access to a reliable recovery move in roost, and flying nullifies bug and fighting weaknesses.

Do you not have a water move on greninja? I thought you had game 4 for sure.

>>32554140
Nope, I took it off for Extrasensory to help against Fighting types.

Holy fuck, I have no idea how gengar lived that dark pulse. 1hp exactly too.

Oh yeah I totally forgot about the Z-Crystal, haha.

Alright, this is my last one for tonight. Thanks for these games sorry.

Damn, I should have used moonlight for the z move.

Great games sorry, really enjoy playing your team. Thanks for the games.

>>32554235
You're welcome, the schooling you gave me will hopefully pay off. I'm not a huge fan of Mandibuzz though,

Great games, good night!

Also, anyone going Psychic that just hasn't registered yet?

Battles where?

I'm up for some battles if anyone wants them.
I have Rock, Bug, Dragon and Dark monos

>>32566240
>>32567015
I'm leaving for the next two days and would like to get some battles before I go, if eitheeiof you want to play just say.

>>32567453
Getting on now. Gonna bring the Dark team.

>>32567516
If you wouldn't mind I would like to play your rock and/or dragon team. If you want I could also switch to poison for a match.

>>32567563
Roger that. Lets do a best of 3 with this and i'll swap to dragon next. Can do rock after that if you want too.
Happy to face bug or poison, your choice.

>>32567568
Going to focus on bug then since that's what I entered as. Sorry but I've been playing dark users non stop and would enjoy some practice against other types. Thanks.

I can't believe I did as good as I did that game. Last mono korago fucking destroyed me without losing a single pokemon every bug vs dragon game we played. I worry about it more then fire, rock, or flying honestly since I at least have coverage for those types.

>>32567691
He uses scarf chomp doesn't he? I can't decide if i like that set or not.

>>32567721
yep, that game 2 was more like it.

I remember it was either salamence or dragonite that really fucked me up. Z power fly is a fucking nuke against anything and both had amazing coverage either way. It was near impossible to do anything against them. Chomp is good no matter what it has, really comes down to preference. I believe firium z on it is pretty popular as it gives it a guaranteed fire blast. Scarf seems less risky in a 3v3 format though, not like it should have problem sweeping even without boosts.

>>32567748
GG's. I keep on forgetting how fun these battles are.

>>32567814
Thanks, all those sets were a lot of fun. Thanks for the games.

If anyone else is keen for a set, i'm still around.

>>32568068
Will be around again late tomorrow cause of sport. Might be after the active hours tho

this is shaping up to be another season 5
:(

Shame to have only just seen this. I do have a 6 mon Dark team ready, though not sure I want to use that if there is already 2. Have 4 out of 6 of a Rock team.

I could try and get a team of one of the not represented types ready, though I doubt I can by next week.

Is this going to be one of those things were once this is over, you will have a set of Gym leaders and Elite four for anyone to face off against?

>>32571279

Gym leaders, yes.

>>32571690

Cool I remeber there being a gym leaders + elite four thing on /vp/ for Gen V. I only got half way through the challenge before other things got in the way. Looking through my boxes of pokemon I currently have, I maybe have a chance to get a dragon team ready in time.

Will work it out more tomorrow and sign up if I think I can do it!

>>32571723
If you don't have the time you can always have somebody inject for you.

>>32570063
>>32570067

Jack finale was disappointing. Anyone around for a battle?

>>32573950
I am in an hour. Probably too late

Looks like I should have this dragon team ready for next weekend. Just ev training a few of them then need to grind some up to level 50 ish to evolve etc.

Should I register now or when the team is actually ready?

Also how do I make sure VS recorder has space etc. Never really used it before.

>>32575093
You may as well wait to submit your team when it's finished, as you may change a move or item or something like that.
You can submit just your details in the first registration form though.
If you've never recorded anything you'll have space on the VS recorder, it'll ask if you want to save battle videos after each battle you do. You can upload them inside the centre building on the PC in the festival plaza

>>32575106

Cool, thank you anon. Can't wait for my dragons to get stomped by fairys!

>>32575125
Don't worry, more than likely you won't play fairy more than once at the most.

>>32575215

I think my team has enough to give most types, even fairy a good fight in a 3v3 enviroment. A few of my mons won't have perfect IVs but they are good enough in the key stats.

Also I read earlier someone saying about a Shuckle, if anyone is using Shuckle in this you have my respect as he is amazing.

am i too late to join???

>>32575237
Nah, still got a week my boi

>>32575233
Almost every team has some sort of meme mon.

>>32575671

Fair enough, my rock team would have included Shuckle as well.

For my dragon team I am planning to go with:

Goodra
Hydreigon
Dragonite
Druddigon
Dragalge
Turtonantor

Not going to spoil my terrible movesets or held item choices yet.

>>32575701

Who's up for a battle?

>>32579059
Sure.

>>32543844
Hey this looks pretty interesting
I'm curious though, is this like a casual thing or like a competitive Smogon tournament?
Also I'm glad Silvally is accepted since I'm in the middle of SRing for a shiny Null

>>32579911
Well, everyone will be running comp mons. Full IV's Ev's and stuff, but a lot of people go full karenfag.

Some types are worse than others though

>>32579975
I see, I guess I'll have to skip this one then
Is this like a monthly thing or a biweekly thing?
I'd like to know how much time I have to prep for the next one.

>>32580012
The last one was a good 3 or 4 months ago. This one is particularly quiet in terms of participants compared to that one, so it's hard to say

>>32580263
Wow that's a lot of down time
So you only have these what, 4 times a year?

Was not expecting such a positive reception for my dragon team!

Glad to know lots of people using fun mons hopefully I can get a practise game or 2 in before the weekend.

>>32580377
Pretty much.

>>32560138
Maybe if it was a mono doubles tournament it would have garnered more interest :^)

>>32560092
Guess I'll go Psychic this time around. Megas are allowed this time, right?

>>32580879
No megas. But bank mons obviously

Ice type would be considered the worst to mono, right?

'cause I'm feeling ready to meme.

_____________________________________________ ______________________________________________ _________________________________________ Bump____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________

>>32580606
Why the huge gap if you don't mind me asking?
Wouldn't monthly ones generate more interest due to their frequency like VGCs?

>>32581581

Ice is nice. I ran one last tourney and made it to the bracket rounds despite it being my first time competing. Main downside is that you're really limited to a hyper-offensive team unless you want to karenfag shitmons like Avalugg.

>>32583390
Like official VGC stuff? I'm not sure what stuff you're referring to.

Mostly the gaps are due to gym leaders challenge that followed the tourneys. They went for about a month of a half making a tourney and challenge cycle about three months total. Delayed restart would probably be about giving people a break so it still remains fresh.

Everything is very quiet in comparison to past season at the moment though

Anyone want to play?

Maybe if someone were to do a doubles tourney after this singles one it could draw more attention. I know it was definitely wanted this time but fuck I don't know how hard this kinda thing is to set up or anything I'm just here to battle.

>>32585232
People always ask for a doubles/6v6 tourney and are told they are free to make one if they want but it never happens.

>>32585232
How many people would be cool if sub legendaries were allowed in this hypothetical mono doubles tourney for a change? Maybe place a restriction that you can only bring a maximum of two if you were planning on using them but could only use one per battle? Or are sub legendaries still a no-no for most people here?

>>32585292
I can only speak for myself, but i don't really mind them. I absolutely understand and agree with the blanket ban though. Keep it simple, easy and removes arguments about what should and shouldn't be allowed.

>>32585292
>>32585314
Yeah I think megas would be cool to but I get why it's not allowed.

Someone host that doubles tourney though

>>32585339
No one will unfortunately

>>32585232
It's not hard to setup, but it's more work than you would think.

So a few questions.

When this starts do we arrange matches in these threads or via email / some other form of communication?

Secondly, just found out I can't pokebank things backwards from Sun even if they originally were from there... Any way I can get the Move tutor moves onto a pokemon I have in Sun through some other means? I can just use a different moveset than I originally planned for my Druddigon if not.

>>32588021
I thinks it's a combination of both. For the move tutors you're can inject.

>>32588021
Yeah for move tutors you're just gonna have to inject, someone here will do it for you if needed no problem

>>32588050
>>32588027

Right, I certainly cannot inject. I assume I would need to trade my mon to whoever does the injecting and tell them what I need?

Certainly know my shiny Druddigon I caught in the wild in Pokemon Y needs all the help it can get.

>>32588241
I can do it for you right now if you want.

Sounds good to me, ain't done a trade in ages, guessing I need to add your friend code on main menu of DS yea?

Moves he needs are Stealth Rock and Gunk Shot.

>>32588300
Yep, then hop on the plaza and I'll send the trade request.

>>32588307

On there ready when you are. Thanks for this!

>>32588313
No problem, it'll just be a few minutes so stay on.

>>32588335
I took a bit longer to get on anyway due to game sync taking forever. Ill just wait for your next trade request now I guess?

>>32588338
I fixed it's IV's up as well. I don't see you on the plaza.

>>32588364
Aw thanks, yea internet dropped out while waiting.

Thanks again for that, you are a bro.

>>32584752
They have at least one city championship a month for VGCs, sometimes two.

I see, that explains the title distributing afterwards. I assumed it was just a seeding for the next tournament.

Well at least that means less time to find your champion? Small silver lining.

>>32588376
No problem! I'll be on again later if you want to get a couple practice battles in.

>>32588385
Practice battles would be great, depends if I am still around then, I don't stay up to late as I have to be up fairly early for work each day.

>>32588413
Well if not I'll be on this time tomorrow.

>>32588423

I won't be around tomorrow, but same time Thursday and Friday I will be. Thanks again and have a good day!

Just letting you know, you didn't put full EVs on drapion.

Vest on tyranitar is pretty interesting, don't think I've ever seen that on it before. The choice of aerial ace seems a bit weird, guessing for fighting coverage but I don't know how effective it would be. Nice to see a non snips set on drapion.

>>32591287
He's right want me to change it?

>>32591362
>>32591359
Shit thanks for catching that.

If you can change that drapions EVS to 156 HP/ 252 Atk/ 100 SpD it'd be much appreciated.

Also yeah not sure if aerial ace is going to be worth it but I don't have much else for coverage. Hoping it works out.

>>32591362
Cacturnes EVS messed up to damn. 252 HP/ 4 Def/ 252 S atk

>>32591374
Any fighting move on a mon quicker than Tyranitar is gonna kill it. You might be able to live a mach punch from some mons, but non stab AA isn't likely to one hit back.

>>32591442
Some good moves for it to consider.

Crunch
Pursuit
Superpower
Dragon Dance
Ice Punch
Fire Blast

Also for item in case choice band or smooth stone are good alternatives. Since you're going rock you will want to keep sandstorm up for that special defense boost so it might be helpful.

>>32591442
>>32591488
Best option is just to cover it's glaring fighting type weaknesses with another mon. Sableye and Spiritomb can get free switch ins on fighting moves. Mandibuzz is a monster physical wall. Lots of different things you can do.

>>32591595
Look in the OP, according to the list he is going rock not dark.

>>32591637
I am going dark I haven't signed up yet though cause I'm pretty new to monotype stuff and still figuring my team out thanks for the tips though >>32591488 >>32591595 I do have a mandibuzz on my team already actually. Probably the one mon I'm for sure set on.

>>32591678
That's all good dude. Just have some fun and you'll be fine!

>>32594543
Are you >>32594425 by chance? If so Pyroar shuts it down hard. Fairy is resisted and ghost is immune so it gets no STAB. The probkem is pyroar is pretty shit and won't be super useful in many matches.

Nothing has changed in terms of people that have actually registered since the last one.

>>32600171

So anyone free for some practice battling? My dragons need a test run to see how bad they do.

>>32600442
I am.

how many people are currently registered?
I want to see how bad the drought is

>>32600462

Cool, just booting up the game now. Haven't done online battles on Sun yet, I assume its not much different than previous games.

>>32600466

>>32588882

God damnit, connection dropped just as battle started.

Coming back online now, will move closer to router as well when on.

>>32600473
Ouch only 20 people?
He wasn't kidding about it being a fourth of what it was

>>32600462

Thanks for the games, think thats enough beatings for me for now. Any advice for my team?

Also I assume that Kingdra had choice specs (And swift swim), didn't expect it to kill my things as well as it didn't otherwise.

>>32600738
You might want to replace Goodra with Garchomp since Dragonite would benefit from weakness policy more and maybe give Hydreigon a choice scarf. Maybe get rid of stealth rock for glare since sr isn't as useful in 3v3 and since Druddigon seems to be able to take a hit you're basically guaranteed to get one off. Speed seems to be your teams biggest weakness.
Yeah it had choice specs and swift swim. gg

>>32600770

I don't really want to replace goodra, certainly not with Garchomp though I appreciate the advice is correct. Glare is an egg move and I caught him in the wild, don't really want to replace him just for that, would have taken Glare and Stealth rock on him otherwise.

I think I will have to take Choice Scarf on Hydreigon despite the fact I hate using choice items.

Not sure what to do about the overall speed issues.

>>32604054
>>32604054
Yeah, it was me. Tournament will still go ahead, going to be a little less battles that I'd hoped there would be, but it is what it is.

How many matches are going to be played on this and at what sort of frequency.

With it being put into groups I figured it won't be too many, but depending on the number may depend on if I would have reasonable avalibility each week assuming matches are once a week.

>>32605024
Groups should stay the same size but there just wont be as many. Probably 4 battles for everybody in the initial stage, 2 each week.

If you arrange a time to battle as soon as pairings drop you wouldn't need more than 20 minutes at most for each battle.

>instead of training new team members I've been wasting time with Persona 5 and writing
I have accepted that I will be completely blown out, but I do hope I make it past one round.

>>32606301
It's all in good fun my dude.

>>32606301

Pretty sure I am going to get blown out too after my practice battles yesterday.

I have however managed to get a replacement for Goodra to slightly fix my teams speed issue, replacement is only marginally slower than a Garchomp.

If Robert or anyone else who can inject is around, can someone fix up my Dragonite and Dragalge? The Dragonite I discovered has terrible Sp def rather and perfect Sp attack and needs them swapping.

Dragalge preferably needs everything fixed in terms of IVs, nature and if possible ability.

If I can't get the help ill roll with the team I have anyway, though I may be busy tomorrow and Sunday, however Monday should be free for me to match up thanks to it being a bank holiday, but if this weekend being out is a problem then I can avoid entering entirely.

What is the absolute latest you can wait to register? I've got a lot to prepare with little free time, hoping I have more time than I think.

>>32606951
I won't be available until about midnight your time if you're willing to wait that long, if not I can help your around 11am tomorrow (your time.) Also don't get discouraged about your team, it's pretty good, mine just had an advantage over yours.

>>32607583

Thanks, on my phone so don't have name but it is me. Around 11am tomorrow should be ok for me.

And yes, your water team certainly has an advantage over mine, even with changes I don't think I have an answer for your Swift swim Kingdra, outside of hitting it with a dragon move just before it gets switched in and hoping for a crit.

Thanks again for those games yesterday.

So anyone free for sone practice battles? Team isn't at 100% efficiency but gotta test the new guy.

>>32607829
Sure I'm up for some. Hopping on the Plaza now

>>32607875

GGs! Your team certainly is strong. Thought that draginite was gonna wipe out my whole team one round. Fun matches though for sure

>>32607966

Thanks for the games, disconnections I think were because I had my phone on as well, once I turned that off so nothing else was on the wifi it didn't drop again.

Some close battles there and it makes me feel like my team can do better when not against types with easy access to ice and fair moves. Got lucky with outrage lasting 3 turns or confusion not coming back to hurt me in a few fights.

>>32608199

GG to you too, yea that dragonite certainly makes better use of weakness policy than Goodra did, your Hydreigon had to make me think a lot with his Focus sash.

You know I can that this isn't tyranitar by it not having sand stream right?

just be aware of that for the tournament.

>>32610240
Jokes on you. :^)

>>32610240
Oh fuck, I'm an idiot. i thought SS was it's only ability.

Why would you have tar without sand stream?

>>32610260
Wouldn't benefit my team any moreso than Unnerve would.

And since you've proved an example, it seems that a few people might actually think it's a Zoroark.

>>32610277
Personally I feel the SpD boost sand stream gives it gives tar more longevity but I guess if you feel it would only hurt your team that's you.

Also kudos for being the only dark team I believe with greninja. Crawdaunt is cool as fuck.

>>32610320
*without

You know, both sand stream and unnerve will be shown to activate upon tar coming out, I don't think having zoroark pretending to be tar will be good if they know of both its abilities.

Thanks for the games altashi, I appreciate seeing things like houndoom and crawdaunt who deserve more spotlight.

If anyone else comes around I would also be up for games.

>>32610352
Oh for sure. I don't regularly use Tyranitar anyway. Only threw him in just now since you use bug.

Raymoo, Omar, and Daniel. I got work all weekend and a half shift Tuesday, But after that I'm free all week. Seeing how I feel on Sunday after work and Monday I'll most likely take battles then, I'll be dipping my head in and out of threads until then.
Best luck all, and have fun

Cerise, JoJo and Elliot, I'll be around for a couple more hours tonight if you do show up, otherwise I'll be around Sunday evening and then my whole week is essentially open.

>>32618282

Seeing as you posted this at what is 7am for me, a similar time to your post should be ok for me tomorrow (Monday morning for me, Sunday evening for you.) as I am away today.

As for whoever else I have, I should be free for most reasonable Gmt+1 times on Monday.
