Other BigFooty Pokemon X and Y Tournament 3 - Draft Tournament

[Igloo]

I'm still trying to decide what Trevenant I use, so I still need to breed that

Lum Berry Trevenant

 

[The Big Sauce]

Lum Berry Trevenant

Yeah it's all about the best method of recovery.

I don't mind talking about my strategy as it will probably only come out for a few teams.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

Just got my Kingdra and Metagross to go.

The Speed on all my Pokemon are dreadful though ...

Noivern and Houndoom take offence to that

5 of my 8 are really fast, they're just brutally frail.

Houndoom ended up with under 200 somehow ...

 

[FlowersByIrene]

My team is mostly bulky offence. Outside of my two go to killer Lando/Pinsir

Heatran, Azumarill, Empoleon, Doublade, Tangrowth and even Lucario arent winning any races

 

[The Big Sauce]

Yep Blissey, Hippowdon amongst others are bulky for a reason.

Deoxys will help counter that though.

 

[Mudeo]

Can I still make a change to my team?

 

[Igloo]

Can I still make a change to my team?

Yes.

 

[Mudeo]

Im changing Dusclops to Drifblim.

 

[Igloo]

Im changing Dusclops to Drifblim.

Nice. I have a competitive Drifblim. Pretty cool to use.

Yeah i have been playing with one i just did up for the past couple of hours. It is a bit of fun.

Notes:

• Those in nahnah 's pool - THE411, Wowsk and Vod Ka Nockers - should be aware that he is likely to be unable to battle until late on the 20th and afterwards. As such, it is likely that your pool round battles will need to be completed during the quarter-finals. nahnah, please make sure you can get the battles done as soon as you possibly can to ensure the tournament isn't held up too much.
• Those in FlowersByIrene 's pool - The Big Sauce, NathanMJ_WB54 and Dirty Bird - as well as those in my pool - The Speaker and LCynic - I request that you complete your pool round matches as quickly as possible - preferably either tomorrow or Wednesday. FBI is unavailable to battle from the 20th to the 27th, and thus we will need to get quarters B and C settled and completed before the quarter-finals actually begin.
• Those in my pool - The Speaker and LCynic - I am unlikely to be ready to battle tomorrow - unless it's late - but I should be okay from Wednesday onwards.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused but this is the best way to get it done to ensure that the tournament doesn't drag on forever.

 

[FlowersByIrene]

Thanks, Dannnnnnn great work. I'm just leveling my pokemon and getting my strategies down pat, so I should be good to go tomorrow morning for everyone in my pool

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Rain is the bane of my existence.

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Arcanine, Cofagrigus, Porygon 2, Greninja and Venusaur all pretty much done. Lanturn completely done.

Now I just need Clefable, items and to figure out how to get a Terrakion somehow.

Yeah but you need to level to get moves.

Hell I had to level a Skitty to about level 40 to get Seismic Toss for my Blissey.

I'm keen to trade my gothitelle for hitmontop.
