Still better than me today buddy.Ouch. 9:6.
I'm not running Scizor \o/Still better than me today buddy.
Really gotta work on my Scizor-counter before tomorrow. Unless the Pokégods are kind to me and nobody brings Scizor tomorrow. Can everyone just bench Scizor? My ego can't take it.
Edit: IGN Maverick but I'm mostly battling Japanese people apparently (and one Italian guy today. Hi, fellow European) because timezones. Probably won't run in to any of you unless I battle late tomorrow.
Bless you for not running Scizor. You are a good person. I've got my Infernape but that shit gets outsped by Scizor even though he is FAST and can't hang in long enough to pick up the KO (plus one of them was running quick attack which I feel is like... overkill maybe c'mon now lads). My Venusaur knows HP Fire but, eh, not powerful enough. Got my firey Garchomp as well. Honestly with half my team running fire-type moves you'd think I'd have this AND YET. I DO NOT.I'm not running Scizor \o/
Just be a dick like me and use shit like Fire Punch Rhyperior, Heat Wave Zapdos, Gyarados ruins its life, HP Fire Empoleon (I saw that today lol), Fire Blast Togekiss, Fire Blast Garchomp, lots of stupid shit to ruin its day.
Given that I'm, y'know, in the UK I was expecting fellow Europeans but apparently there aren't any. It's just me and that one Italian dude taking on the whole of Japan and their Fire Blast Gyrados.I'm getting Canadians and Mexicans, its bizarre. I'm used to stupid Japanese haxstrats and shit like Fire Blast Gyarados, these Canadians and their Leech Seed Venusaur are baffling.
My Raichu has picked up a double paralysis off of Discharge in every match I've run it. It's only been fainted once (thanks, Charizard). I'll join you in hell.edit: 4:2, my Heat Wave has burned 6 out of 7 hits (plus double burns, not joking), Arbok has not yet fainted, so yes I lost the 2 matches I did not bring Arbok. I am so going to hell.
Opponents that disconnect on you count as your win so you don't need to worry there, disconnects just take longer to register to the server. If your rating has been falling then it's your internet that's been disconnecting and not the opponent.These disconnects are so bad. I'm low enough on the ladder that a majority of people I'm about to win against just DC, hurting my rank. But I stick through my battles, win or lose, so now I'm stuck with a horrible rating. Started off strong and now it's finally setting in.
*sigh*
I was always under the impression that a DC on their end did nothing to your rating?Opponents that disconnect on you count as your win so you don't need to worry there, disconnects just take longer to register to the server.

If it's their fault then the game will give you the option to "continue battling". If it kicks you off of Battle Spot then it's your fault. As Psynergy said: if the opponent DCs you gain the rating as if you'd won, but there's a delay.I was always under the impression that a DC on their end did nothing to your rating?
I've never had a DC on a loss so don't think it's me
Nvm you're right, just got a couple of free winsIf it's their fault then the game will give you the option to "continue battling". If it kicks you off of Battle Spot then it's your fault. As Psynergy said: if the opponent DCs you gain the rating as if you'd won, but there's a delay.
