    Pokemon was never the same after an SI introduced the Eldrazi type
  2. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Worth remembering that the size given for Gliscor is an even two meters. So yeah, Gliscor are a big step up in terms of size. No more shoulder riding for Vlad.
  3. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Lose gracefully like a King? Kind of an oxymoron there. Kings do not lose, that's why they are Kings. Historically, a King that loses in war would then be ruthlessly taken advantage of for as much as possible, if not killed outright. And any loss at all would come after said King did his utmost...

    Now this is a pretty prominent fact. And it does change things quite a bit in regards to this person's character. That six month difference made the difference between coincidence and pre-meditated. The rest is mostly anime-related to be fair. We've seen plenty of tournaments in said anime. Most...

    Zero isn't overvaluing the stakes though. Big difference is that a real life Marathon is explicitly an open invite. This tournament was specifically marked as prohibiting anyone who has ever collected eight badges. So anyone who has completed the gym run halfway through the season is out. Anyone...

    Eh, for all that people are saying things like 'Bradley should learn from this loss and address his weaknesses'.... That's kinda not anything new? He knows full well his team is super unbalanced. He knows that Simon and K. Rool need to be brought up to snuff. And Junior too. That's the reason...
  7. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    May not have been the intent but that's definitely how it came across. Joining up in the gym circuit after five years? Sure, no problem with that. Showboating with sponsors and, six months into the season, still not getting those last two badges? For sponsors to get their money's worth, she's...
  8. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    There's similarities, but its also pretty different. For starters, he's had most of his pokemon for less than a year and has been actually gathering badges. He didn't enter the tournament intending to smurf the hell out of it, as seen with how he actually had a hard time in certain matches...
  9. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    I think you forget an important factoid. Namely that the Item and the Pokemon are pre-chosen. That's literally something you register with the tournament committee and its set in stone. So someone who has a five year experience handicap on everyone else that's expected to be in this tournament-...
  10. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Always gotta be a ringer somewhere. Although a Focus Band only has a 10% chance of working, it worked here because of course it did. Although, seriously, this one decided to use a Focus Band Wobbufet for her item pokemon in a tournament she was all but guaranteed to sweep in? Between that, the...
  11. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Honestly if anything it showed that he needed to get K Rool, Simon, and Junior up to snuff. As things stand, for serious battles, its only Vlad and Mama holding up the group with Grundy as an ace in the hole he doesn't normally want to use and Quagsire as an OH SHIT!!! button where lives are on...
  12. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    You know, on second thought, reading over the prizes makes me wonder just how much certain things might or might not cost. I mean, for example, the King's Rock is noted to be the rarest thing on the table. And TMs have a varying price with Earthquake being noted as 'sell a kidney' expensive...
  13. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    It was explained earlier, but in this story the Held Item is pre-set ONE Pokemon can hold ONE item, and thats registered beforehand. So he's got his Ursaring a Chesto Berry and that's set in stone until the end. He never intended to use Grundy in this.
  14. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Eh, that's the thing. This probably ISN'T a fight that's worthy of Grundy. Throughout this whole event we saw ONE pokemon higher than level 50. And that was this Ace Trainer's Ace Scizor. Who was level 52. Highly likely that whoever he faces in the finals isn't going to have anything much...
  15. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    So it all comes down to the question of how bad Brad wants first pick of the prizes as opposed to second choice. That, and who his opponent in the Finals is, and if the guy might deserve or require a Grundy to the face to win anyway. Otherwise, from the looks of it, he'll probably just drop...
  16. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    He got Junior literally three days ago so its still probably level 8. Maybe 9 at most. As for Nidoking, he doesn't want to use it because the guy is too violent. Its a pokemon that LIKES hurting things. He can control it, to a certain degree, but if he puts out a level 70 Grundy against a level...
  17. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Quagsire Lv.?? At this point I'm just thinking of it like that Gardevoir from Pokemon Rubyer. Nature: Homicidal. And yeah Brad's kinda screwed. He's got, what, two or three hours max before the finals? Vlad and Mama will get back on their feet sure but they aren't going to be fighting their...
  18. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Well, he's planning to trade a couple of Smeargle for a Baltoy and a Trapinch. Honestly though between the existing team, Junior the newcomer, and the potential desert types from the trade, that will probably be the limit given the lecture we were just given on team size. Not sure how much money...
  19. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Ehh, practiced, hardened criminals is probably taking it a bit far. Team Rocket is a group or organized pokemon thieves first and foremost. They do other stuff, especially in regards to scientific research- hence MewTwo- but they've never been shown to be a pack of assassins. There are a few...
  20. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    I think the stuff about Rocket is overblown. He helps them set up their underground architecture, he doesn't do active jobs for them. I have no idea how a 'busted operation' or anything of that nature could have them going 'yeah off that guy'. As for goals, he does have clear goals regarding...
