I appreciate all the support, to be honest I don't really like the labels "team Scott" and "team Xerxes" but whatever it's water under the bridge as far as I'm concerned, I dun goofed and he kind of blew it up but whatever, let's just play some more pokemanz. RU Tier Cote, build one.
I think it's fair that you speculate about wether xerxes is telling the truth when he says that his whole team got revealed, but I think you're taking it to far about your conclusion concerning his intensions. Saying that he's deliberately manipulating his fanbase is a very strong statement, and it could be both right and wrong. Speculating about what happened is one thing, but I think everyone should thread carefully when speculating about others intensions without talking to them first.
first battle you said that your scizor is naturally bulky in physical and if the luke is special you can live b ut then you said its spec and you cant lvie :S confusion ho!
Cote.... I feel pretty insulted on how you talk about xerxes subscribers, i've been subbed too both of you for ages and you claiming that i cant think for myself just because im subbed to xerxes makes me an idiot makes me kinda mad at you.
Anyhow making team scotta and team xerxes is dumb, none of his pokes should been revealed at all, though he shoulda went about it in another way and talking to scott, rik, elo etc if that he was told about the team being revealed was true...
@kverkern I made a brutish generalization there. Obviously I'm not saying Xerxes subscribers can't think for themselves because they're subbed to him. I said the majority of his subs (not necessarily you or me) haven't matured to a point where they can form their own opinion and will listen to anything this "famous" person tells them. It's not meant as an insult, I was trying to exemplify that Xerxes was using his status to his advantage.
Fair enough i can somewhat agree on that, though that goes for any popular youtuber/famous person.
Though it was a bad mistake from Scott revealing 2 of his team members, Xerxes should definitely talked to the guys involved instead of just believing whoever told him that his entire team was revealed. But oh well the drama will go over soon i hope and we can all enjoy and play pokemon for the fun of it.
Guess I'm old fashioned in my thinking that hacking into my game and giving myself perfectly stated Pokemon is cheating. It's messing with the game files and you get a slight advantage in battle and a huge advantage in the time it takes you to form a team and adapt to new enemy strategies.
If you don't want to bother with actually training up your Pokemon then go play using Pokemon Laboratory, all the battles you want without training up.
@Penguinator44 That's a perfectly valid way to think. But you also have to keep in mind that some people (namely, university students) don't have the kind of available time required to do that. To us, sav is a godsend since it allows us to jump in and enjoy the competitive game and not make a chore of it.
It's not necessarily a case of not bothering, but actually just a tool for us to still play and keep up with studies.
Hey Cote. Great video! I just want to point out one thing... Your Gengar is named Succubus, which is a female demon. But your Gengar is male. I think you were thinking of Incubus, the male version. Or maybe you noticed and don't give a shit about technicalities... I don't know :)
by the way i dont think gengar absorbs toxic spikes due to his levitate ability, cuz gengar isnt affected by any kind of spikes, even regular spikes cuz of his levitate
i do like xerxes but a lot of things he said was unneeded and by combining the video with his first team reveal was a clear sign of him trying to win people over. if he had just made a rant video on its own then it would of started more arguments, overall he did try to manipulate his fan base through a somewhat 'hour long special' where he talked about his life.
That said, this is all blown out of proportion. You and I both know Scott didn't reveal anything as a sign of disrespect to his wishes (and I know Scott feels bad about it). If anything, he said soemthing by accident because we're talking about Xerxes! How do you NOT talk about that match with your closest friends?
I just wish Xerxes would sit down and realize that the actions shouldn't be seen as a sign of disrespect. I think it's a sign of reverance for who he is and what he represents
@iamthetie Sums everything up. Very well spoken, very unbiased. My fingers are getting tired of typing xD After all I've done today, but I wanted to point this out.
Xerxes should have carried things out in private when they happened. 2 months ago. Not give 10 minutes of hate. That said, I don't think it fundamentally changes how I view him or anyone.
As for Xerxes, I think this series just meant a lot more to him than just a battle. It's him closing a chapter in his life and passing the torch to others. When people comment on his vid saying "it's just a game" they miss the point he was making. Pokes isn't just a game to him, it's part of who he has been and what he now strives to be.
I think he just feels disrespected since they couldn't keep his team secret. After 4 years on youtube, I think he just feels entitled to that respect. cont.
I brought such a lolzy team when Scott asked for an adherence battle. You forgot to tell him the point of adherence matches was to slap choice items on guys that shouldn't have 'em! It was still a blast though. I totally brought a Pachirisu for fun. It's such a shame Scott is such a good player. My only goal was to pick up a kill using him
yeah we need more battles! I hate that you and Scott are 3 hours ahead of me. If Scott wasn't such a night owl I don't think I'd ever get to play him.
Pwnobi actually attacking? what magic is this? =O also something i dont get about the Xerxes' thing. I know he like old school trains his team, but if he knew that everyone knew what his team was, why didnt he like...change his team? Bring it to their attension and say "And thats why im tweaking my team, im sure you understand" but he seems like he's spitting his dummy out, like "Well if you dont wanna play fair, we wont play fair like ever, infact you all suck"
@Goldendriger I think it hurt him because he wanted it to be a HUGE series with the SAME team all the way through. So it sucks when people know it and can counter it while you can't do anything about it.
However, he didn't handle things in the classiest way...
I recommend you dont form an opinion and completely avoid drama on the internet all together. I havent been following the pokemon community that long but I do follow the cod community and everything just seemed better when it started. Xerxes is reminiscing about how it was before sav and I think people should just forget about it. Its a game, get over it.
We have The persons that belive in Scott and the persons that was in the lobby (Pwnobi, Wile, shofu (?), E-lo, Rik and Blakblastosie) (I've heard that xerxes didn't mean to say spade, cause he apparently wasn't there). And you have Xerxes team, and the only big narratior I have seen on his team so far is Xenon... So i really hope that this guys can talk about what happend to each other, and become friends. I am on nobodies team, cause I both liked what Xerxes said, but still belives PMP's.Right?
@iiTsFireFly Hopefully the two combating sides can work something out. Imagine culminative works between Xerxes and everyone else. Like the Metapodcast.
@TaliaTxT It's meant to be a shortform of "Blockade", because I think those letters look sexy.
How was it ANTI-climactic? It boiled down to the most exciting I can think of xD
I actually went OVER the limit, and had to throw my written account of my opinion of the Xerxes situation in an annotation. I didn't even KNOW there was a limit, but I hit it.
it was anti--climactic because it happened so fast :P
"so it's a speed tie and oh a lost" BAM
and not a dramatic slow motion "uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh what will it be what will it be?!" but it wasn't meant to sound negativ i actually had to laugh at that point (sorry :D)
St.Helens...? Manly bug....? Jedi...? MACH 5?! Epic names dude xD
