I already know some people's teams, from practice matches and stuff.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - SleepingOrange - 04-27-2014
Yes well
I specifically kept mine secret from most of the tournament because a lot of my pokemon have lots of potential builds and unpredictability was part of the strategy!

Confirming Garuru's victory for our matchup; Dragon beat Bug.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - MaxieSatan - 04-29-2014
My matchup with Acionyx has resulted in a win for me - but it was a close match! Those who don't have a type advantage should stay on their toes!

mirdini (fairy) WON vs me (grass) lOSe
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Mirdini - 04-29-2014
Fairies have triumphed over the lawn pokemons, though Crowsy put up a good fight.

Uh. I haven't found Plaid yet. I dunno when she's online ever.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Plaid - 04-29-2014

Felix where are you, I gotta fight the mons
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Paranoia - 05-04-2014
if he doesn't show soon I may executive decision and just replace him with granola so we can move on to round two. (by which I mean have you fight granola instead of him for round one.)

2014 year of the reboot
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - SleepingOrange - 07-28-2014
In the epic battle between me and Granolaman that waged over a grueling two months, I was ultimately victorious.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Granolaman - 07-28-2014
Seriously, June was just the month of neverending walls.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Schazer - 07-29-2014
Did you guys for real have a two month stall wall off?
I would love to see the logs after the tournament if so.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Paranoia - 07-29-2014
We can just go with what we were doing when I started this trainwreck, which reminds me!
No more rounds; just fight the people you haven't already had a throw down with when you can and send me the replay.
I'll try to get a nice little google chart up so I can keep track of who has fought and who hasn't.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Granolaman - 07-29-2014
No! My drizzleswim!
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Paranoia - 07-29-2014
Yeah so we're ignoring smogon's newer bans, just so you know.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Gatr - 07-29-2014
confirming win against granola.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - SleepingOrange - 07-30-2014
I'm glad to see Talonflame go. Shit's bull. I mean, it's still going to suck going up against Whim's (assuming she has one), but I'm glad I don't have to worry about it in random matches.
Fuck that bird.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Plaid - 07-30-2014
Ubers still turn up in random battles! Like fucking kangaskhan, that OP piece of shit. You won't find it in any tiered battles though, thank goodness.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - SleepingOrange - 07-30-2014
I meant when I search for OU Monotype battles with random opponents, not actual randbats. I do love randbats, though. Much more pleasant than Rand Bats, which flap around screeching about objectivity.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Gatr - 07-30-2014
I have literally no problem against Talonflame, because I always run Barbaracle. I mean yeah Barbaracle's not even OU, but he counters Talonflame HARD.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - SleepingOrange - 07-30-2014
There are too many types that don't have a reliable counter to Talonflame for it to be reasonable. I mean, I can count the number of fire or flying teams I played against without a Talonflame on one hand. In regular OU, it's not a huge issue since there are lots of ways around it, but if your type isn't one that has one such way, you often end up pretty fucked. It's not usually a full-game sweep or anything, but it's too consistent and trades for too many pokémon to be fair in a monotype setting.
