EURY HIIIIII. <3333

 

Today is a very sad day.

 

After humming like a motorboat for the past week, the good old Wii finally bit the dust.

 

Begging the question... do I want another one? Life is so complicated. ><

 

Nahh

Wait for Wii U.

In the meantime, maybe get a 3DS?

Spend quality time with your good ol' portable until then?

Replay the classics?

GET STONED?

Maybe go outside and play?

 

Idk Clair, there's a ton of options for ya.

Darn it, why did I have to get good with so many characters... TT.TT

 

...do you not have a main?

 

Most tournament characters have a main and two or three alternates just in case their main is banned or the situation calls for an alt character. Same goes with Pokemon - most battlers carry two or three teams for battle, whether it be on Shoddy or WiFi or whatever.

My mains are Ike, Ganondorf, and Captain Falcon. I'm just skilled with most everyone else and like using them along with my mains alternatively. In Pokémon, I have around 20 trained up Pokémon that I alternate around in my team. Also, why's your SSBB FC in the first post if you don't play SSBB online?

 

Zero, I know if it were me, I'd get Brawl, but if you're lacking clothes for college, you should probably put that first. XP

Clair, I'm saddened by the fact that you didn't put the banner I made for the club in the Banner/Sigs spoilers.

xD

 

Re-PM it to me and I'll put it right up.

HAH

 

My portables still love me. I still have my purple Game Boy from all those years ago.

 

I think my consoles are jealous, tbh.

 

Also, once my Wii and Wi-Fi are fixed, I'll post some friend codes. I could use a good Brawl, Strikers Charged, or Pokemon battle. xD

I have selective playing ability with characters in Brawl - I can't deal with characters that have a terrible Up-B recovery, and I sure as hell can't deal with slow characters or characters that have to work around frame lag timings. So no Captain Falcon, no Ganon, none of those guys for me. But Kirby and Meta Knight and Sheik? Hell yes.

 

And the thing is, teams need to have good synergy. You can't take six Pokemon from twenty and plop them together and expect it to work. Which is why most competitive players have two or three fully-made teams that they alternate around, instead of alternating Pokemon around.

 

I posted all of my FCs a while ago. It isn't that I simply won't Brawl online, it's just that I usually prefer playing locally since the lag is rarely an issue, not to mention you can actually talk to your opponent about stages and banned characters and whatnot before you start the match. I hated people disconnecting because I used Meta Knight because it was apparently "implied" that the top two tiers of characters were banned. <___<

 

I don't have time to play online anymore, for any game. Pokemon battling (whether on Shoddy or WiFi) was my life a year ago, but I haven't done it in months. I don't even know the Gen V metagame, and Smogon just put up a bunch of the B/W Strategy Dex a few days ago. I'm ignorant to everything, it kind of sucks. Busy, busy Dark. >:U

Meh, the metagame is for those competitive Stop Having Fun Guys. And I don't see the need for total synergy in Pokémon teams unless you're double/triple/rotation battling. In the 1v1 battle system (which is what I primarily do), as long as my team is diverse in types and strengths/weaknesses (which mine always are), that's all I need.

...that isn't the issue, though. If you bring a team of six sweepers, even if they are all diverse in types and whatnot, you are still going to have a terrible win/lose ratio. Just bringing a team of six Pokemon with resistances to every type doesn't mean your team is good. If you want a good balanced team, you actually need to plan it out - what your lead is going to do, what entry hazards help your sweepers the most, how your defensive core is going to be laid out, things like that. Plopping together Pokemon really doesn't work when you get into the higher levels of competitive battling.

 

And I don't think competitive battling ruins the fun, you can still leisurely competitively battle. Competitive battling just encompasses the whole process of team-building and EVs and IVs and Natures, but you can still have a laid-back relaxed battle.

Yesterday when I was battling a guy that had a level 1 Cottonee on his team on Random Rotation Battle. He sent it out first, I used a move it hung on using focus sash used leech seed and regained full health. Next turn same thing except this time it used Spore (I think) and paralyzed my pokemon. It took out my entire team this way. T_T

that is soooo... brilliant.

 

I will only do Gen IV battles. Gen V just messed up the whole metagame for me. ;__;

It's 11:00 at night but imma get em right now.

 

And Dark, I actually do that when I plan out my teams (I'm just content with the basics that I already said if I have to). I thought planning out teams like you said was obvious, so when you said "synergy", I thought you meant something more. XP

 

My 3DS FC is 4682-8527-3043.

 

EDIT: So...

 

Super Mario Bros.

Donkey Kong Jr.

Metroid

Balloon Fight

Ice Climber

The Legend of Zelda

Wrecking Crew

NES Open Tournament Golf

Yoshi

Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

 

Favorite?
