I believe the search bar was used correctly by me this time. Hopefully.

Seeing as the Pokemon thread is dead, and also because competitive battling is so detailed, complex, and somewhat separated from the games/game announcements, this separate thread is for the purpose of sharing teams, finding battles, and sharing strategies. That is, if anyone else is as into it as I am :)

I suppose for any gen, although I personally only play 5th. Been meaning to try 1st and 2nd just for kicks though.

You won a tournament though? Wow :o All I ever do is sit on my butt and battle on Pokemon Online XD

First and second gen are overrated ;)

not to mention how the battling works is completely different.
In 1st-3rd gen, types are either physical or special, instead of attacks.

I've been meaning to get into 5th gen, probably test out RU.
Just haven't found the time :P

Ah, it's not that impressive, it was like a year and some ago and back then I was like

Haha, it's still pretty cool though.

On a sad note, it seems no one else likes this thread :(

I remember competitive battles when I was in 5th grade (before Game Boys were banned from recess). I'm dating myself here when I say 5th grade = Red and Blue were the only ones made thus far.

There were 2 rules
1. First rule about Pokemon battles is there's no talking about Pokemon battles
2. No Recovery or other HP-replenishing moves

No offense though.

You don't need a DS! :D Pokemon-Online is a battle simulator, search it up.

I made a FEARon team once and annoyed a bunch of people in high school. That's about the extent of my competitive pokemon experience :/

Other than the fact that there's no animations, it works just like an actual ds!

Love Pokemon ^^ I've never played in Tournaments but I did work at a place that held tournaments. I've been asked if I wanted to play a bunch of times. Everytime I turned them down, each time saying "I'm not good at playing with the cards. I'd just lose everytime. Besides, i only collect them." XD Probably would still say that if I was asked again T_T

Same thing in 3rd and 4th grade back in this elementary school I used to go to when I was about 8 or 9 for me. That and Yugioh duels and freaking beyblade battles on the schoolyard. Good times, man.
