The Austin Smash 4 Thread - Weeklies are now at OOPLES!

[Sky Pirate]

Yes, you really should have more broken pokemon on your team.
Like Clefable.

 

[Gova]

Or Missingno

 

[Zigsta]

Just wrote my second letter. <3

I'll be fair to Ricky and list my Pokemon I swap out for my team:

Dusknoir
Cresselia
shiny Pelipper
Venusaur
Donphan
Snorlax
Weavile
Drapion
Salamence (whos' uber now...WTF?!)
Floatzel
Zapdos
Heracross
Golduck
Infernape
Swellow
Scizor
Medicham
Metagross
Jirachi
Empoleon
Rampardos
shiny Jolteon

That's all I can remember off the top of my head.

 

[Sky Pirate]

Okay, everything else I understand, buuutttttt...

Pelipper?

 

[Gova]

Dang two shiny's? I only have a shiny Luxray

 

[Poltergust]

Am I correct in assuming that you didn't breed for these or EV train them?

Absolutely. I just don't have the time or patience. I catch them and raise them and that's that. ^_^

 

[Zigsta]

My Pelipper is LEGIT. Just ask JUJ.

I've got a bunch more legit shinies, but only Jolteon and Pelipper are competitive. They work really well together, too.

 

[Poltergust]

The only shiny I found was a Nidoran-Female in SS.

 

[Gova]

The only shiny I found was a Nidoran-Female in SS.

Did you catch it?

Also, I'm going to HOBO! So I'll see you guys there.

 

[Sky Pirate]

I like your attitude, Ricky.

Shiny Luxray? Shiny Jolteon?
You guys are so lucky. I only have a shiny Spinda, Gyarados (lolHG), and Tentacool.
Even after breeding untold numbers of Clefairies and Eevees, I still haven't gotten a shiny of either. :<

What do you run on this Pelipper, Chris?

 

[Zigsta]

My Pelipper has:

Toxic
Brine
Stockpile
Roost

With Leftovers as held item. Sometimes I run Salac/defensive berries.

If I fear someone's going to hit me with an Electric-type attack before he's adequately boosted, I switch to Jolteon...who leads to pure ****.

 

[Espy Rose]

I hatched a shiny Misdreavus. Only legit shiny I've ever had ever.
And I've played every single version to date (some of them 3-4 times), with the lone exception of Diamond.

 

[Sky Pirate]

Mismagius is cool, though.

EDIT: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
I just realized that I restarted my Diamond before getting all of my level 100s off of it

 

[Zigsta]

That's what you get for making fun of Pelipper.

 

[Gova]

You should name your Pelipper Steven Seagal

 

[Reizilla]

I hatched a shiny Riolu the first time I played Diamond. Also ran into a shiny Graveler, but he 'sploded I think I have a shiny somewhere, but I can't remember...

 

[Poltergust]

Did you catch it?

Also, I'm going to HOBO! So I'll see you guys there.

Yes, I did. I immediately traded it for a HG-only Pokemon, though.

Also, how are you getting to HOBO if you are not going with Zig?

My Pelipper has:

Toxic
Brine
Stockpile
Roost

With Leftovers as held item. Sometimes I run Salac/defensive berries.

If I fear someone's going to hit me with an Electric-type attack before he's adequately boosted, I switch to Jolteon...who leads to pure ****.

I see...

Unfortunately, I can't tell you what one of my Pokemon have because I can't remember and I'm too lazy to check. You are most likely going to beat me regardless.

 

[Sky Pirate]

I see you changed your tune now that you know how SUPER SERIOUS Zig is about pokemon.

Also, joke's on you, Chris.
I only lost three Clefables, Salamence, Froslass (I don't run Hail anyway), my good Gardevoir, and one pokemon from my mono-dark team (can't figure out who it is to save my life).
In other words, nothing THAT important.

 

[theeboredone]

Got me some Old Spice for the trip tomorrow. Awww ye. Though it's not Juan's favorite (Swagger).

 

[JUJ]

My Pelipper is LEGIT. Just ask JUJ.

OMG don't remind me of that thing!!

 

[Magik0722]

My non chained non rng'd shinies:
I ran into my first shiny in crystal it was a shiny bellsprout
next shiny was a shiny clefa hatched from an egg
next shiny was a shiny kriectot in pearl
next shiny was another shiny kritectot immediately after the first shiny kriectot

What are the possiblities of back to back shinies. Dude you should be playing the lottery.

 

[Magik0722]

I think its actualyl quite common in 4th generation, it think it has something to do with how the pokerader was programmed into the game, so after the first shiny patch you find it actually is randomly placed in another close by patch and i just happened to walk into it. At least that is my theroy on it.

 

[theeboredone]

Pokeman talk.

Juan working as a surgeon in the future.

 

[Poltergust]

That's also from Mad? (or MAD?)

OK, this show needs to be live forever now. I couldn't stop laughing. XD

...I still don't think kids won't get it, though, so I'm worried.

 

[Gova]

Yes, I did. I immediately traded it for a HG-only Pokemon, though.

Also, how are you getting to HOBO if you are not going with Zig?

My mom has been having surgeries lately so she hasn't been able to travel. She recently got confirmation from her doctor that she can travel so she is coming up here to see me for the first time on Friday. Then I'm going back with her that night and I'll drive myself to HOBO the next day.

Edit: Now that I think about does anyone wanna MM? I mean I've only played you guys in friendlies and chances are we won't meet in tourney.

 

[Sky Pirate]

My, your mother sounds like a caring person.

I would MM you, but I know what you think of my character. :3
MM one of my secondaries?

 

[Gova]

Which one(s) and for how much?

And my opinion of your character will change if you help me with the MU!

 

[Zigsta]

I'm telling you: If you want to play Shaun for serious, you need to challenge him at 1 in the morning.

 

[Gova]

So does that mean he gets better the later it gets?

 

[Zigsta]

So does that mean he gets better the later it gets?

No, he just decides to start playing serious when most people are wanting to call it a night.

 

[Gova]

But there's money on the line? Why wouldn't he take it seriously... unless you mean he plans to avoid me till 1 am then challenge me knowing I can't refuse!?

 

[theeboredone]

He'll mm you for 5 dollars at 9 pm and lose. Then later, he'll act stupid silly tired and MM you for 20 dollars around 2 am and **** your ***.

 

[Sky Pirate]

1. Wow, you guys make me sound like some kind of bunco steerer. XD
You could just go with the simplest explanation. I'm nocturnal and you guys always mess up my sleep schedule with smashfests. ^^;
I can be serious for a few matches in friendlies if I'm well-fed and had enough sleep, but playing Olimar for more than five matches without a break is incredibly tiring.

2. Kirby has a really freaking hard time against Olimar, so it'll take a while to learn the match-up.
Pikmin toss is the least of your worries, though. You can power right through it without taking too much damage if you know what to look for.

3. My two secondaries are Kirby and Dedede (I'll have Ike down there soon, too ^_^).
Oldschool boss fight, my Dedede v. your Kirby $5?

4. Wow, what a long post.

 

[Gova]

Old school boss fight it is then. Best 2/3?

 

[Sky Pirate]

Sure.10sures

 

[Gova]

Dang, you guys are like staying in the center of Houston, which I guess is sometimes better but, I can probably house you guys if you ever need it.

 

[theeboredone]

When will you be in Houston? Honestly, the place we're staying at is gonna be a sausage fest, so if plausible...staying at your place Saturday night would be lovely.

 

[Zigsta]

I'm sure we'll take you up on your offer in the future, Nick, but this time I'd like to partake in the sausage fest.

And for Shaun:

SAUSAAAAAAAAGE.

 

[theeboredone]

Chris, I would personally prefer to stay at Nick's place Saturday night. Think about it...if it's estimated to be 30+ people, all coming back from a smash tourny where everyone will be sweating and stinking it up...some who didn't shower in the morning to begin with....Yea.
