  • Finding nemo :D

  • Your'e ev training your cat?

  • Wait what's you email xerxes?

  • wow...

    I JUST noticed, but you cat looks exactly like mine o.O

    Then again, it seems like my cat looks like an average cat, i see him on like 100 different tv shows lol

    great battle once again though

  • Lmao, the kefka laugh caught me off guard at the beginning. I feel really bad for your cat lol.

  • haha love the TOV theme to finish the video up. Good man

  • nice your cat got speed evs

  • check out my wifi battles

  • heartgold soul silver coming out hope u mke vids of thse !!!! i got Hg

  • lol its so funny how you train your cat.

  • yo xerxes: what do u play ur MW2 on?

  • To be honest I've never played a CoD game in my life. I bought it for the goggles, sold the game for 65 and sold the CoD 1 token for 19 after getting a 15% discount on the $150 price tag.

    So, I got some goggles for cheap.

  • Caught the reference everyone be blabban about (chew). Zoog's Wang ftw (obvious joke is obvious). Just don't know the real spelling (chew).

  • sad that neither of you used farfetch'd (not that its really that good, but it seems to fit on a thanksgiving team). Good match though, very interesting to watch

  • you shold do a x-mes special

  • I was just going to ask that.. I'd like to see that

  • Have there been any burglaries lately at that game stop place you work at, i loved when you posted stuff about that, it was kind of funny.

  • Nothing illegal, just normal Gamestop corporate thievery.

  • how is normal Gamestop corporate thievery not illegal? Can you elaborate?

  • Gamestop is still allowed to conduct business are they not?

    Perhaps there is a disconnect between what you are thinking and what I meant.

    I was implying simply that Gamestop steals from its customers AND employees by ripping off everybody in the world and caring about no one and nothing else but the almighty dollar.

  • oh, i didnt quite get that at first. Im one of those ppl who cant tell when someone is being sarcastic over the internet. But yea I see your point.

    When it all comes down to it.. it's all about supply and demand in any market. There's not much help for those who feel robbed spending nearly 70 bucks for just a video game. Every year some game is on the top of everyone's x-mas list

  • not were i live because i got 3 games for $3.00 and i got condemnd for 9.99 so i guess mississippi is better

  • Condemned ain't a good game. The 2nd one is okay, so you got a bunch of crappy games that are really old and they've already sold/bought each copy at least 10 times therefore already made several hundred dollars on them as it is.

    As a consumer, playing games 1-2 years after release is the best way to go, I applaud you for that....but they've already made more than enough from each copy of those 4 dollar games.

  • Au contrair i got condemned 2 for 10 $ also and i got tony hawks american wasteland for 13 $ and finnally i got gears of war for 15 $ and thoes are great games

  • Hey XERXES i really love that pidgeot could you give me the EVs and nature?

  • It was fairly simple...I forget if its def or sp def is higher but put the nature + in that one and - in sp atk.

    Max HP and split defenses as you so choose to weight them. I think it had a few speed like 12 evs to beat something but I forget.

  • i would love to see you play chess. I havent played chess in a while.

  • I love your videos so i am never deleting the email that said you replied to one of my comments :D

  • Wooooo,you posted this video on my birthday :D

  • And you just NOW got around to it?

    Musta been one hell of a Birthday....

  • Nah, i just didn't get round to watching your videos :D

    And i only turned 13.

  • Hey man, my 13th was.....err.....actually.....

    Okay so my parents forgot my 13th. No big deal, a hot chick from school baked me a cake so it was all good.

  • Indeed. Chicks and cake make everything better.

  • What kind of parents do you have LoL, do they hate you or have something against you.

  • Lol no, but with 3 kids in the family we would "rotate" birthday parties and such, but something would ALWAYS come up every 3 years and mine would be forgotten/overlooked. So I grew up just thinking birthdays aren't anything special, and thats fine with me. Its funny to me to see big parties and people getting presents because my experience is so foreign from that.

  • Nice Xerxes Happy Holidays man

  • Why do you 2 both use preevolutions like the 2nd form of piplup and starly?

  • Its in the video description.

    Because we wanted to make sure all the pokes we used were closer to the NU tier, and the final forms of some pokemon were too strong but the pre-vo of them had stats that would be acceptable to use and not be overpowering.

  • oh my bad :] i just watched this fast didnt get a chance to look at the description

  • GG. I like the Idea lol. Well I would probably watch your chess matches just so maybe one day I could good like my dad is. I say give it a shot. Maybe a few here and there.

  • @DesertFox1124 Maaaaaan I just had an EPIC chess game on Yahoo. I was down a pawn almost the whole game, but up in position. My clock had run down to 6 seconds and he was talking smack, so in his haste to checkmate me I tricked him into losing his queen and proceeded to own him. Slowly. xD GOD I wish I recorded that. I thought about it too, douche bag lol. *feels so pumped up*

  • Lol shit bro you should have, what a fag though. Either way without tricking him Im sure you could have whooped that ass lol. I would watch every chess match you would record just to get pointers =p

  • What do OU NU and UU stand for? It's really buggin me cuz i see those things everywhere.

  • Just the "Tier" placements of pokemon, which are horribly broken right now.

    It simply stands for how much a pokemon is used. OVER-used, UNDER-used, and NOT/NEVER-used.

    It used to mean how strong/capable the pokemon is, and tiers were important.

  • @mtgxerxes thanx thats been bothering me for a while also i've been meaning to ask how did u get ur umbreon with wish? people have told me to mate Togetic and Eevee to get Eevee with wish but it never works. can you help me out man?

  • Hell I don't remember. Stupid Eevees are a biznatch.

  • I agree Tiers are just not my things to me.

    It is like an unncessary boundary between Pokemon. In a word,a wall between Pokemon.

  • o snap i didnt know u played chess xerxes. u got an online site u prefer or just play locally?

  • I used to play on Yahoo a bit to test new openings/defenses, but I pretty much only played in High School. Now I don't play as much as I'd like, occasionally with an old high school buddy, I use my phone for chess a lot though but I don't take it very seriously lol

    Part of me wants to upload chess matches, but I'm sure 80% of my viewers wouldn't care, and then 50/50 with "oh wow you're good" and "wow you're fucking horrible, please stop"

  • I want to see your chess matches... are you good?

  • Well, define good. Good could be 2000+, good could be 1500+, good could be 1000+ ELO.

    I'm by no means BAD, I helped my highschool win States my senior year but I'm far from being a competitively great player. Plus I have a wondrous habit of comparing myself to the best in everything, and have a "2nd place is the first loser" attitude.

    Maybe I'll upload a few matches then.

  • What's your rating? You'll never know how people will react if u don't upload.

  • also dont forget to commentate x)

  • Thats the other thing, my "official" rating is some like 600 garbage.... but all my buddies in high school were 1k-1500 and I could hold my own pretty well against them---and we placed top 3 in states 4 years in a row, so we were definitely above average high school players but as a school we were always ranked really low, so I imagine those guys were truly better than the 1300's they had, so I'd prolly fit somewhere in the low 1000s myself. Computer games start to beat me at around 1400.

  • Yea i hear you. One thing I hate about shoddy is when you lose to someone that has a lower than 50% chance of beating you from hax and attacks missing. Yesterday I missed 4 Rock Slides in a row under normal circumstances and now I'm stuck between the high 1300's and low 1400's because of stuff like that.

  • yeah my official rating is 600 something but then when i play against computers they say my rating is like 1100 something.

  • @l0ngj0ng Well I've only played in one rated tournament, and that was States. I went 2-2 (shoulda been 3.5-.5....I have a horrible blunder habit when I'm up by a lot.)

    and the two guys I beat had really horrible rankings, and I lost to guys 1300+, so with those as my only 4 rated games they put me at a provisional crappy rank.

  • i personally wouldnt mind watchin some chess matches ;). and if u ever need a chess match hit me up i used to play alot in school too

  • :D! ur cat looks just like mine.

  • I claim all rights to this due to my NU Flying video being out first.

    *COUGH COUGH*

    Something seems to be stuck in my throat.

  • Hmm? You mean you had an NU bird battle for Thanksgiving before I did, two years ago?

    Well congrats? If thats true and you want rights, then I call rights on Roulettes and Narration and nobody else can use those.

    Ain't fun being a douche is it? =P

  • Oh sorry, that thing stuck in my throat was my ego. Don't worry about that.

  • Somebody probably already asked this, but why the unevolved forms?

    And like everyone else says, your cat still rapes at everything.

  • Evolved forms such as Empoleon, Staraptor, Swellow, Dodrio, Togekiss, and Honchkrow would be far too powerful compared to the NU/UU birds.

    Just like OU, everyone ends up using the same thing because its stronger, more effective, and the other little guys can't cut it. We still ended up using 3 of the same (though one of them couldn't have been more different of a set) and the 3 we used were the "most powerful" of the birds we DID allow, so its proof right there we used as strong as we could.

  • I think what it really comes down to is strategy. As simple as that sounds, it's true. Let's say you could use any bird u wanted, you guys most likely would've chosen the team mentioned above. It becomes a chess match

  • your cat is FTW

  • I didn't know you were into bonnie pink...

    She rocks, I love "Last Kiss" and "Its gonna rain" *...*

  • Err....

    The only reason I know of that song is because its the theme to Tales of Vesperia, arguably the best jRPG of the current generation.

  • lol

    super saiyan 3 bird XD

    i might breed a pidgeot just to nickname it that XD

  • You guys shoulda had to make all ur dudes hold leftovers, those are really what thanksgivings all about haha

  • Lol good one. While it definitely fits with the theme, I think it would've made the battle a lot more boring. Though I believe I had 3-4 lefties on my team, he had a couple too.

  • sand slash looks like ss3 too.

  • When you use protect and someone switches on your portect which makes it fail you can use it again with it still being 100% without fail.

  • the failure rate depends on succession, as in the more times you use it in a row, the lower the execution rate

  • Then I must be really lucky because EVERY time I use protect when someone switches I can use it again, no problem.

  • I've never tried it myself, but I've seen the computer pull off Protect after I switched as they did Protect...many, many times...

    I'm pretty sure the counter is only set if you "successfully" protected--note that if they switch, it says "[Pokemon] used Protect! But it failed!".

  • Cool then I'm right and the other person is wrong :D Thanks~

  • I sav'd him that team!

  • Why did you use endure with Fearow?

  • to be sure that he would get the berry boost

  • Oh, I didn't see the berry. :P

  • Vid is buggered for me...

  • Great Pidgeot set! I may have to steel it! Ha! GG

  • *steal

  • I was just testing you...lol

  • ; )

  • aw sweet, u got a game vs xerxes, kl, if my wifi werent screwed id ask 4 a rematch lol

  • I love your hat! :D

    and great battle

  • i've done the same with our cat :o

  • Happy Thanksgiving and great game for both of you.

  • That Pidgeot looks like its about to jet, jesus.

  • happy feet....

    Wombo COMBO

  • Kefka FTW lol

  • nemo rocks!

  • GG Xerxes, your fun matches are always a blast to watch.

    I'm gonna have to disagree with your claim that your bird team can beat NU. As an NU player, I can see it would do well against some teams, but most would have you outdone.

    But again, this match was still awesome.

  • Aww thats disappointing =(

  • ololol epic hickey xD

    amazing ur freakin back ahah

    i thought u were gone for sure xD

  • Hey what system do you play MW2 on? and are you as good at it as you are pokemon??? Just wondering...

  • I don't. I wanted some Night vision.

  • Pelipers nicname is cool. xD

  • you were not kidding when you said super seiyan 3

  • kitty :33333 gg

  • sweet Zelda hat

  • great match man.

    happy thanksgiving.

  • That was a pretty awesome match. Great job.

    Also, adorable kitten.

  • Tales music at the end! ^_^

    Didn't see that coming.

  • That was just for you ; )

  • gogo Xatu sweep.

    that was epic

  • Whoa man you look different in a way. Haha and thanks for advertising the NVG's. We talked about this last time. They're pretty intense and all my friends want to use them.

  • Nice video man, I still watch your videos even though i don't play Pokemon anymore.

  • Pidgeot looked like a  Super Saiyan bird tank! Definitely getting myself one! Platinum FTW

  • dude love this battle and your narration epic

  • OMG, I was just reading through the comments, and xerxes, your cat's + speed nature comment was epic! I wish everyone embraced the concept of pokemon like you do, because it just makes the world more awesome.

  • Man, i was dying for a new match from you. I recently watched your old thanksgiving battle, assuming you wouldn't have a new one since you rarely post anymore. Then BAM! there it is. This video easily made my day, keep it up. (and btw, around 2:30 when you said psycho shift missed, it was because you protected, not because the attack actually missed)

  • @Johnahue23 Err.......well....it misses at some point I'm pretty sure, he was upset about it xD

  • haha that bird does look like *SS3* haha never seen that before or realize it

    good video keep putting them up MTG!!

  • THANK YOU for being the first one to comment on the damn bird! I thought loads of people would be saying something about my SS3 remarks!

  • haha yeah no problem i was looking at the comments before seeing if anyone posted it already so i wont copy, but nope haha keep the vids coming bro!!

  • wats ur xbox gt

    maybe we could play some mw2

  • ooo my kitten is cuter :P

  • KITTY!

  • I didn't realize you looked so cool.

  • CUTEST KITTY EVAR

  • Cudos to cats, but they are seriously retarded when it comes to chasing things :)

  • Lol are you kidding? Check out that pursuit! That precision, the dexterity, the alacrity!

    You should see her after I turn the laser off. They look around for 20 minutes confused as hell.

  • mtgxerxes uses Bind Meowth is Paralyzed mtgxerxes' Bind fades mtgxerxes uses Leer Meowth uses Pursuit, Meowth misses mtgxerxes uses Leer Meowth uses Pursuit, Meowth misses mtgxerxes uses Leer Meowth use Pursuit, Meowth misses mtgxerxes uses Confuse Ray Meowth uses Amnesia Meowth has fled the battle
  • @sebb7 ???

  • oooo awesome

  • KITTY!!!!!! =D

  • Haha mine! mine, thats off finding nemo.

  • awesome

  • Aww, she's so adorable... I need to show you a picture of T'Pau. Wow, Pidgeot does have a neat backsprite. It looks epic!

  • I wondered when you'd be commenting!

    Thanks for stopping by, M'lady.

  • Why thank you, kind sir. :)

  • YESSSSS NEW BATTLE!!!

  • yes! uber!

  • I always think of Pokemon battles as being a bit like chess, thinking a few moves ahead and whatnot lol. Nice chess reference.

  • Zugzwang ftw.

  • you should use the pigeot in a standard battle xD

  • I assume you play chess, based on your knowledge of it? And because I assume everyone plays chess, mainly out of hope that they do lol.

  • Lol. Yeah I play. I wish everyone did, you kidding? Half the time I ask people they have no idea how to play, and its not really a game you can teach. You kind of have to want to learn it.

  • Yeah, totally agree, I "taught" a friend to play and he probably couldn't play again if he tried to. My uncle taught me when I was 5. Haven't ever won a game because he and other people he taught and plays with more are the only people I've ever played. Man, it's weird to actually speak with you, I've been watching your videos and I keep thinking "I want to be good enough to challenge him sometime", it's weird how you hype people up to almost uber celebrity status lol.

  • Pelipper's name has got to be the best Finding Nemo reference EVER

  • Yeah, and his nickname is all MINE!MINE!

    2 years ago on my Thanksgiving battle it was just MINE!! but I realized I had more space.

  • You rock Xerxes.

    And I know saying this four battles in is kind of late, but it's great to have you back

  • You could of Protected again technically it failed so it didn't go through which means you could of used it.

  • I could have tried but I'm pretty sure its only a 50% chance the 2nd time, regardless of fail due to the switch. Fail from consecutive uses resets it though, I think.....meh.

  • you know i have a starraptor that has that same exact set lol

  • Thanks Xerxes, you brighten up my days

  • great thanksgiving battle xerxes

  • Xerxes is a pretty dude! lol and has a pretty kitty! lol and Great battles! :]

  • love it

  • Pretty awesome. I liked seeing those UU/NU birds. 5/5

  • Awesome battle!

  • DA PELLIPER B SPREDDIN

  • I'm surprised you didn't know that about Encore. It can even get some use in OU battles too, ya know. Alakazam can get some good use out of it; it's even usable on Infernape. The opponent will pretty much switch 100% of the time, so you get a free stat boost or a sub.

  • I <3 discretely slipping in chess terms

  • nice battle

    I always look forward to you vids Xerxes

  • The audio quality is pretty poor, but entertaining nonetheless.

  • Yeah my audio has sucked horrible since I moved to the basement instead of my room, and this new cam instead of using a Mic. =/

  • wow

    your xatu has the same name as mine

  • ^_^

    Looked appropriate to me!

  • rofl hickey

  • First to notice! Here's a cookie....

    (::)

  • ....That is one delicious looking cookie

  • at least you didnt rape as much as the last thanksgiving battle

  • Lol yeah that one I could've 6-0'd with like, 4 of my pokes lol.

  • Your cat must have 252 speed EVs.

  • and + speed nature.

  • it does look very jolly!

  • great battle and description, i read it all.

  • MTG where's my battle u owe me!

  • Thats a fucking quick cat

  • In that regard, have you ever seen a slow kitten?

    Let alone when a laser pointer is involved. Her brother is faster, HE'S fun as hell lol

  • wow, you cat looks just like m
