Pokemon JAA regional finals

[DUSTEEBOY]

What state is this?...I went to the one in Va.

[DeagleBeagle]

CA, this tourney was in San fransisco

[Theparadoxmazes]

That is so mush better then the upcoming Pokemon video game showdown. At least in that tourney allows lvl 100s!

[seph258]

hey you guys what's kou's name i totally just spaced and forgot

[jjbro1]

uber users...

[Whinesilencer]

lol, "obi mode" pretty much tore up those who weren't prepared =(

also, i think the guy on the right is kiku x)

[tad38]

No, the guy on the right is Julian. The guy on the left is Justin (Kiku). Out of curiousity, are you a member of smogon? If so, what's your username?

[Whinesilencer]

You're absolutely right, tad. I meant to say left. :3

Also, this is Max.

[tad38]

Oh, cool. I'm assuming you know I'm theamericandream38 on the forums but everyone knows me as tad. How did you find this video? I was just watching the old JAA videos for the hell of it.

[Whinesilencer]

Yeah, I know who you are! :) I dunno, I was searching for some Smogon JAA stuff; bored I guess.

[tad38]

Haha yeah dude, I love watching this stuff for old memories. Too bad DM's story is currently down, it's quite an epic tale.

[Bogswallop]

A tournament where uber pokemon are allowed? What a load of bull.

[Atromitos123]

Why do they have to use Ubers? Shouldn't they be banned? I really really really really hate it when I see a team of Ubers and especially a tournament where ubers are allowed!

[aStormzComin]

fuckin legendaries should be banned from tournaments

[crazystarf]

They should use OUs instead

[Amiyumi19]

JAA was nothing but unfair play

[benofoz]

Jeez... That double protect at 1:50 was stupid. Double protects are a waste of a turn.

[Joey1715]

the "Julian"'s Groudon is built very... "different"

[crazystarf]

lol OHKO on mewtwo's icebeam,

[sowutifmahsnsux]

wtf!?  legendaries in actual competitions? wheres the fun in that?

[30CCM30]

I found it funny how the announcer said swords dance raises sp. atk, lol.

[DrakePhoenix]

battle with lugia, mewtow(s), Groudon(s) sucKs

[SmexyPikachu]

Yea, i use mew XD

[crazystarf]

I can't even get mew to fight in the colosseum mode.

[coastergeekrtc]

Julian Partovi is my college roommate, and is the most sad and pathetic loser I know. To tell you the truth he gives you guys a bad name...

[crazystarf]

oh is he?

I got to kick his ass then.

[Datboyfresh08]

im just pickin out my pokemon rite now b4 i get to the newest region.they should have those events every year. dat would b so much fun.

[narutouzamaki004]

Freakin HP abuse to Lugia

Its up and down

[bryandaking]

these comps realli need to kinda ban legendarys or make a rule u can only allow 1 legend during the whole match cos it get real booring watchin ppl use legends ova and ova agian in matches its like daja vu

[RaustenMage]

I agree. Catching legendaries should be proof of one' skill enough. For me I raise a whole team of normals but I'm stuck on Saphire version. Man, I see too many Mewtwos with Ice Beam instead of Psychic.

[Minan3]

i'm stuck kanto now in my leafgreen version. I'm breeding pokemon before i start out in that new region

of pokemon. there was an english name for it.

[TKnHappyNess]

If you mean the region in D/P, it's called Sinnoh.

[SheWhoLovesPineapple]

I think I head my voice in the background... not sure though.

[lmaoskitz]

no wait he said spec att

[lmaoskitz]

lol the guy said that groudon raised it spec def with swords dance

[SwordsDance]

The problem is that the match was in 2v2, and there was that 8 min limit. Lugia in 2v2 uber is a very poor attacker, its really a support pokemon because it can Light Screen/Reflect/Thunder Wave behind the incredible defenses. It has to play defensively is the most part because it does that better than trying to damage the foe, because it usually does <40% to anything besides Grass types and Rayquaza

Match needs more Selfdestruct Mewtwo and Snorlax. Too bad it already happened

[goldberg3386]

omg,,,all that dude was doin with his lugia was raising his special defense and recovering,,,i didn't see lugia attack once,,very poor strategy indeed, i would have been attacking the mewtwo with my groudon and i would of had lugia attack his groudon, damn i would have killed in that match, the other guy knew what he was doin, instead of being on the defense i would have been on the offense cause let's face it,,defense doesn't win matches in pokemon,,that was proved in that match

[TKnHappyNess]

This is why these tournies are so boring. Everyone abuses Legendaries. Can't we have some people that DON'T have to resort to being cheap?

[SwordsDance]

The statement of legendaries being cheap is inconclusive because it requires strategy to use and deal with them. What I don't understand is why they band the promotional legendaries

[TKnHappyNess]

Maybe, but it's really irritating how people have to use legendaries like these guys in a tournament. Couldn't they have a third grouping for people who don't use legends?

[Minan3]

i raise a plusle and now its at lv 100 now, yeah too many legendaries can make them a normal pokemon.

[crazystarf]

Even though legendaries are somewhat strategical, the OUs and other pokemon are far more complex when have to create strategies for battling.

[MasterK100]

Sweet battle

[SeaPrince]

Nice! We're getting a Journey Across Oz soon and a tourney :p

[Inkydog]

"a pretending faggot you are." I can prove it that I actually won, you ignorant jerk.

[gijoey245]

This Is a Hot ass battle

[JackKrauser435]

I would use kyogre,Lugia,Ho-oh,Salamence,C­elebi,Rayquaza

[confusedchiwawa]

People talkign in background sound so into it lol...

[Inkydog]

Hi, I'm the guy who won the qualifying tournament in Nintendo World.

Thank you very much. This video helped me alot. It inspired me to add Protect to all of my team members. If it wasn't for you I would have never got that far at all. I really owe it to the JAA finalists in there.

[crazystarf]

a pretending faggot you are.

[manert]

its stupid you cna use legendaries it can be very unfair that way! in the world cup you only can use zapdos,moltres and articuno,latios,latias....unpr­of fight its boring.....IM THE ULTIMATE POKEMON MASTER!!!!

[GoddessUmbra]

I'm participating in the tournament this Saturday and was wondering if I would be notified that I was battling at the mall this week.

[MidnightScott]

Do yall go to Serebii at all? Just wondering.

Anyways, yeah, alot of yall are cheap. Using all Legendaries is the most pathetic, though I know some people did it only because everyone else is using Legendaries.

[shadowsdogsok]

if i was there i would be in the finals my team is #243,244,255,salamence and blaziken

[SmexyPikachu]

i could own them. WITH GROUDON, ITS CALLED SOLARBEAM IDIOTS!! what a discrace. protect cheezing??? not cool -_- annooying. muhahah i use purepower. muhahaha. sometimes i lose, but you cant win EVERY battle -_^ hey! the camera isnt shakey!

[crazystarf]

you are a fucking idiot.

[SmexyPikachu]

i was just hyper ^^;; i have a new stratagy, i came in the top 8 at the dc tournament. and i got rid of solarbeam, groundon's special attack isnt that great..lol its good too. protect didnt come in much use tho, i made a simple mistake that i wont mak again in future tournaments....be seriously, chill man.

[crazystarf]

MY pokemon can kick the crap out of both of their team.

[RoxyWolf]

Mine too

[jpchato]

VINEONNNNNNNNNN

[tailgrowth]

lol at the the Shiftry's name.

[koumori28]

I always wanted to go to something like that. :|

[TrainerRachel]

That's cool. Congrats Karzy on being in the finals. I cant wait til I go to JAA! ^___^

[Picollo860847]

lool my video is better..atleast the ausdiance =(

[TheMusicalMan06]

Not bad...though I think that too many people were using way too many UBERS, a.k.a, Legendaries...

[karzy]

Several people have commented on how the initial few seconds make it appear as though I decline Julian's handshake, so I went out of my way to dig up this to prove otherwise, unnecessary as it was. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v­=_eVKxmRXInE

[SheWhoLovesPineapple]

Oh... gosh. NOW I recognize it. That was in Santa Clara. I was there. Maybe you remember me. I was the girl who wore the Pikachu ears.

[SheWhoLovesPineapple]

JAA! I went there! What location is this?

[karzy]

Despite the fact that I'm one of the participants in the depicted battle, I won't openly claim to be, as I'm sure I would be shouted down for being a liar.
