If you let something actually set up a Spider Web / Mean Look (which is limited to like... Umbreon, Smeargle, and other frail stuff?), then you deserve to get swept. Most overestimated concept ever.

Garchomp + Latias days were so legit; Haban SD Chomp was such a goddamned troll. Manaphy + Chomp was also really good. Garchomp being OU in general was just fantastic.

Didn't really play much of the Chomp Metagame when it was around (I took a break in Pokemon when Gen IV started), but going on the suspect ladder with it long after it was banned, I wasn't a huge fan of it and the metagame it created.

Do love my Latias metagame though ;-;

Oddly enough, I really do like the old Gen V metagame with a lot less banned ****. Smogon bans so many not really broken and fun stuff.

You guys better release it early on the 15th

It would suck to invite my friends over and then have them leave without ever playing PM cause you guys do like some stupid **** 11 PM release.
it would be wise for you to organize your smash session on the monday, or else make it an "i'll phone you when its released, then come over" type deal

Ed Gen IV was legit untill they banned mence. I didnt even use mence but his ban was dumb and messed with how effective my awesome team was

The only good tier in gen 5 is dw uu

Now I'm curious. What is it about the gen V metagame that sucks? All I know of is the weather thing.

For the record, Rotom-A changed the metagame far more than Chomp did. Garchomp was just too much fun to use and play against (those were the days in which I'd used stuff like Cloyster and Scarf Slaking <3).

Mence was a ****ing dip**** ******* in Gen IV. His ban was definitely a just and very much needed one.

Gen V sucks mostly because of the power creep. Weather, I have no problem dealing with (only scrubs ***** abot weather). Stuff like Doryuuzu, Brokenrona, and the genies just makes the entire metagame... Not fun to play at all. DW sucks even harder than OU.

Excadrill has more counters than Garchomp

Volcarona literally can do nothing as long as you keep Hazards up

Thunderus is the only Genie that was even hard to deal with, and at that only because +2 Thunders hit hard, and Rain makes them perfect accurate >.>

Sounds like a person hasn't played Gen V in over a year!

Is there gonna be a list of the new control codes before or after Demo 2? Since there's an offline version and an online version that differ :/

Guess I was wrong after all.

Anyway, back to P:M... Would anyone like to toss around ideas for Squirtle? We've all seen a lot of him in streams and whatnot. Given that Squirtle will not be in Demo 2, it would be a grand idea to divert to current conversation to him, rather than asking questions about characters who have already been confirmed.

Brawl combo videos are rather interesting, because its just brawl players trying to make the game seem like melee.

They may deny it, but alot of those "combos" are the same as melee, just less frequent
u no like sexy platform infinite? I was blown away when I saw this, jesus

not really, it's just an abuse of bad coding by nintendo. The set up for the jab lock was nice, but in the end its just emphasizes how bad brawl is.
Ahhh, I hadn't thought about it that way. You're right O_O

Brawl was very intentionally bad. The worst part is that a huge amount of its coding is unaltered from Melee, with only a few pieces of information reading differently, and very few additions to the main code.

A lot of information regarding Guarding in Smash is in severe need of change , for example. Mostly regarding better individualizing characters' shields and adding in a variable for shield stun on hitboxes, but there's a lot of nuances that could use fixing regarding this aspect of the game which we are very unlikely to see from Sakurai.

If u manage to create working codes for the Pal version of SSBB than i will download this for sure.
Because with my low speed connection I can't download a 8 gb USA version :/
So i have to stick to Brawl+.

you could always buy an NTSC disc and then force your wii to play it. Not allowed to say how on the forums though

I got an NTSC version of brawl because it was released 6 months before PAL, and found ways to use it on my wii. Looking forward to demo 2, but still need to find a suitable tv :/

Well I dont really wanna buy the game twice, just to play Project M, that kinda sucks.
Brawl+ made it work on Pal version, by changing the codes, so i guess Project M will be able to archieve the same, atleast i hope so.
As long as this doesn't happen I have to wait :/

It would be so ****ing awesome, if you could make this work on Pal, but I understand your problems.
Well I have many friends in Germany who are waiting for this too.
So if there are any news about this, please let us know ;)

I thought you could use GeckoOS to play imported games? Y'know, with its "region free" option and "force NTSC/PAL60/PAL50" options?

(btw, Brokenrona vs SR can be played around just as easily as Ho-Oh vs SR :awesome:)
