As I said in my previous post, it was not meant to be offensive in any way, as all I did was pull some numbers out of my ass and assign them to your warstory, just as you did in mine. I don't like internet "confrontations," they're a pretty big waste of time.

Now, I'm actually going to give you some constructive criticism, so that you understand why I got pissed off when you "rated" my warstory the way you did. Listen, using UU/BL pokemon does not make a good team, some people might think so, but the majority of the competitive players just think it's retarded. Don't get me wrong, some BL/UU mons are pretty good, but overall, they're gimmicky and not competitive. Colorful formatting makes the story hard to read, keeping it simple is usually the better way to go - check out the archive if you don't believe me. Why did you write this warstory? Were you just bored one day? You even admitted it was not a good battle, it had nothing interesting going on. You're not supposed to pick a random battle to make a warstory, you're supposed to pick one which is actually worthy of it. Be it because of crazy predictions throughout the battle (like the "pro vs. pro" warstories), or due an unpredictable turn of events (such as mine).

I apologize if I sounded like I was jumping down your throat before, I tend to do that when people do shit I dislike; I always hated when people just post arbitrary numbers as rating without giving any reasoning for them, whatsoever. However, I don't want you to think I'm backing down from the challenge, I'm most definitely not, I'll gladly take you on. I'm not going to do a warstory about it though, you can post it if you want, even if you win I don't care, I'm just not going to take part in a "omg I'm better than you!!!" war.

Anything further you have to say to me can be done through PMs, as I consider this post (despite me actually talking about the warstory) spam.

Have a nice day.

EDIT: To any mod reading this, the issue has now been solved, as he PM'd me and apologized. Just letting you know there's no reason to interfere.
 
I think this guy is probably a troll. He knows that competitive players hate it when people use UUs in OUs for fun, and he's using this fact to piss others off. Also, he went out to kokoloko's warstory, which is clearly superior to his, and gave him a rating that is .1 lower than what he gave his own warstory. In his actual warstory, he made trolly moves such as not using Agility against a sleeping Tyranitar, even though he probably knew that it would've lead to him outspeeding Torterra at the end and winning very easily. Same with the Starmie switch-in, which was absolutely retarded as well.
It was actually my noobliness peaking in at those moments. I forgot to use Agility on the switch. I also thought T-tar was carrying EQ, but again I was wrong.
 
Artemisian switched in Starmie (lvl 100 Starmie).
Pointed stones dug into Starmie.
Starmie lost 12% of its health.
Freedom used Crunch.
It's super effective!
Starmie lost 88% of its health.
Artemisian's Starmie fainted.

I stopped reading at that point. I instead went to read Koko's warstory...for the 2nd time.

Your layout was quite good though, I liked the colour scheme, pictures etc.

I'm sure you will improve in time so GL.

You were right to stop. Now that I've reviewed my warstory, it didn't get much better from there on.

While I saw his rate, and it did smell of ass, I totally disagree with your take on BL/UU mons. If you can utilize the unpredictability of a Pokemon to your advantage, that's not gimmicky or uncompetitive. It's thinking outside the box. I'm not saying it's a great feat to make use of a UU Pokemon in OU, but if it gets the job done than it's a perfectly good option.

It's one thing to use a BL/UU Pokemon to fulfill a threat, quite another to use it "to be unique". Instead of Cosmic Power Clefable, why didn't the OP get something to fix his DDTar, DDLO Gyara, and Lucario weaknesses, or just a potent offensive threat so his team wouldn't be too weak to it to begin with, even though Raikou makes that pretty hard. Hell, Clefable creates the Lucario and Gyarados weaknesses to begin with.

Mtr, you realize that no matter how smart you are and what you say, I will always ignore your posts for the Mewtwo-Slowbro porn.
 
nice originality of pokes not normally used in OU (coming frm some1 who always used Dnite over MEnce(fuck mence!)). i liked the commentary. battle was ok but hey its u get better with time. looking forward to here more from you in the future.
 
why everyone commenting this post mocks me for using torterra ?
well its just a plan i made before this match to use it just to cover that pesky rotom apliances thats why i use it

anyway sorry for a bad match man
 
JSND I salute you for using Terra... The poke is epic in it's own way and I love it.... Mine is called Gamera >w< FRIEND TO ALL CHILDREN!!
