HOBO 17: R.I.P Metaknight= 8-1-09=go to results thread for further info

*Looks at Pokemon Rules*

I understand that people try so hard to remove randomness from an almost completely random game, but it's really sad that you have to clause and ban so much because some douche will just abuse a Double-Teaming, Rest-Talking Lapras or something to MAYBE kill a Poke it otherwise couldn't...

Sigh, this and with 90% of players uncreative enough to create a team without running to Smogon, is why Po quit playing Pokemon competitively. However, if I manage to drudge up enough Oklahoma support to come, I will enter and pwn everyone's faces at Pokemon.

I may not be top-tier in Smash, but I am a Pokemon Master. All day, everyday.

You gotta harass them A LOT. Just spam up the Oklahoma Thread. I'll try to convince everyone to go, too.

 

[heytallman]

po, if you guys could come, I'd be glad for you to enter Pokemon. And, just for the record, I don't turn to Smogon for all advice on team building. Granted, I do often look at their sets as kind of a base, but most of the time I do something that they don't recommend. I know that many people use strictly their sets, and doing something different gives you something "unexpected" and sometimes difficult to deal with. I'll look forward to playing you.

Also, there willbe a Melee side event at this tournament, yes?

You realize that Nintendo actually has some of those rules in-game in battletower, and in PBR in some fights, right? People didn't come up with stuff like sleep clause and stuff, Nintendo did, we just follow them

 

[Magik0722]

Hm. OK then it seems like we have more NERDS entering this Pokemon tournament than I thought.

JK JK I'd totally go to the events too and stuff. So I guess Celebi and Jirachi shall remain legal, but I'll be doing IV checks for them, as Philmaster suggested.

I dont know what IV checks are going to do. I'm not coming but my apprentice is and all the pokemon i gave him for the tournament are RNG abused pokemon, unless you are checking for illegal IV spreads through PID generation for Method 1 Pokemon

 

[Vorguen]

Magik you should come, just take your family with you and celebrate your birthday there! :D


lol @ your apprentice

 

[Player-4]

Really all it's going to be are ******** IVs that are like straight 31 or something close enough to that.

 

[po pimpus]

Oh, don't mind my little Pokemon rant... I just saw Smogon and my blood began to boil. That site's founders and I have a little bad blood because apparently, beating a mod or admin there fair and square warrants a six-month ban

It's not my fault that you didn't have ice beam/Heracross against a team half-composed of Celebi, Flygon, and Exeggutor and got beat like you stole something. Man up and admit you suck instead of clinging to your internet 'powers' and banning people smarter than you.

*no more Smogon rants*

Now, how bout that Smash Bros? I hear it's a pretty cool game, even has Pokemon in it!

 

[Sars_Pirate]

**** your *** Po spamming other threads to get us to leave instead of getting people to come to Oh Snap!

 

[Airbrush_King]

And the HOBO 17/TYS 3 Promotion Begins...

Your behavior isn't helping to convince me of your claims.
Overall, I am NOT amused.

vvvvv

Not really...smart guys like me will fool u.

 

[TheJerm]

Ima learn pokemon and win =]

 

[Rogue Pit]

Trying to come, along with chibosempai. I just asked my mom and she flipped calmly. Btw i just turned 17 so my age doesnt help.

Anyone wanna contribute to the help Rogue+Chibo go to hobo fund?

 

[tekkie]

Ima learn pokemon and win =]

This. I'mma have five Magmars and a Haunter and that'll show you all.

[What's up with housing? I'm trying to get a NM-people tally.]

 

[Vorguen]

Can anyone provide housing for the RGV for this tourney?


We bring a wii to set up and much bromance.

 

[RT]

FYI, Luigi's Mansion is legal for those who don't regularly check the Houston thread...

 

[KRDsonic]

If I fight someone in pokemon who isn't that good in round one, I'll be forced to bust out the Minun and Qwilfish.

 

[QUIVO]

I'll be here teaming with Jerm

if you and chibo ARE going, PM me. Ill work with you



to the rest: i think this event will break 100 people. If it does happen it will be a FIRST for a meta ban event. This might be history making!!!!

to the rest, again: if we make 85+, i will do pools and extend payout to top 5

 

[SideEffect]

Did someone say Melee?

 

[UltimateRazer]

He did say melee was going to be there.

 

[CO18]

HRnut and I may be at this.

 

[HRNUT (Honey Roasted)]

yes we may to win of course

 

[Airbrush_King]

This is geting HYPE!

 

[Suspect]

i must make this

 

[heytallman]

This. I'mma have five Magmars and a Haunter and that'll show you all.

you can't with species clause. Plus five Magmars and a Haunter? That would be a terrible team!

to the rest: i think this event will break 100 people. If it does happen it will be a FIRST for a meta ban event. This might be history making!!!!

lol this won't make 100 people. When Allan says expect over 100 people, expect like, 65.

But over 100 would be nice. I'd like to be proven wrong.

 

[RT]

A hundred people? I foresee high levels of nerd funk...

 

[PhantomX]

HRnut and I may be at this.

No, **** you CO18... you will NOT be going to a tournament that I'm not at... that's ****ing bull****.

 

[Kates893]

A hundred people? I foresee high levels of nerd funk...

Noooooooooooo......

 

[Dojo]

Haha sucks for you Snake eater.

I have a new character in store for these hoes. :]

 

[Suspect]

Toon link?

 

[Dojo]

Nah, I can't fill Santi's shoes as fun as TL is.

 

[Suspect]

Dont forget our falcon dittos son

 

[KRDsonic]

I'm hoping there will be 100+ people, and with all the advertising I've been doing for HOBO 17, there might be.

 

[Dojo]

Dont forget our falcon dittos son

Can't wait. :]

I'm hoping there will be 100+ people, and with all the advertising I've been doing for HOBO 17, there might be.

I really hope there is. A quite a bit of OOS seems really interested so we'll see.

 

[Airbrush_King]

I know it will reach 100+. Me and Xyro have been promoting our a$$e$ off so it should break that. I remember xyro saying that the 1st meta-ban tournament wasnt going to pull in no more than 50 people max and we got 75 people. Due to good promotion provided by yours truly and the green lesbo. We will see if HOBO 17 can live up to the HYPE =]

@ Dojo a surprise awaits you! (((IF YOU WIN)))

 

[Dojo]

Oh yeah, because winning a large scale tournament without my main is totally possible.


But I'm going to try my hardest for you baby. <3

 

[TheJerm]

I think if dojo wins, we shouldnt ban MK anymore.
