Symphonyx64 vs. Mtgxerxes [A Thanksgiving Special!]

Alriiiight, having never done a Thanksgiving battle, I thought it would be fun to do one this year.

We chose our respective Pokémon from a pool of about 15 NU/NFE birds. Why not OU you ask? A change of pace is always a nice thing from the hustle and bustle of the OU metagame. The battle for the most part was quite entertaining barring the fact our teams were similar Pokemon-wise, but not moveset-wise lol.

Those ~15:
Fearow,
Pidgeot
Farfetched,
Pelipper,
Prinplup
Chatot
Noctowl,
Tailow
Murkrow
Togetic
Staravia
Xatu,
Swablu
Doduo
Delibird


Sadly, due to hax, as described by the annotations, my team's full potential was unable to be exploited. I think this is the first time I've used current NUs before haha. I don't think allowing Stealth Rock was the smartest idea. Oh well, hell of a fun and quite funny battle nonetheless.

About that Crit: Without the Crit: 28-34%, or 91-107 HP wise. Simple math: 25% (brings me down to 236 HP) from Stealth Rock minus34% (107), minus 34% (107) again for being slower equals surviving with at LEAST 22 HP assuming maximum damage. Then, I would have Roosted.

Anyways, thanks for the match dude, its always a pleasure to face you. Maybe I'll do more holiday-themed matches in the future.

As for everyone else, enjoy your Thanksgiving and Black Friday!

Happy Holidays.

Man that guy was good! Who is he?

[DGWPictures]

Why not OU you ask? Because that would make the battle rather unexciting and boring.

...

[symphonyx64]

Yeah, a webcam. I also have a DS Fat. Old school FTW!

Exactly, those battles where you couldn't see is when I used iMovie along with a plethora of video conversions. Now, its 720P resolution.

[IceWave44]

Do you use a webcam? because quality doesn't seem as good as a normal camera. And I think the quality's become better over time, if I recall some of your old battles, I could hardly see.

[symphonyx64]

I used to use imovie before I had Windows on my Macbook. iMovie was too complicated to do simple tasks.

Plus, too many video conversions caused the quality of my videos to deteriorate. It shouldn't lag if the computer is half-decent.

What do you think of my quality?

[IceWave44]

In your case, yeah, as you do music, but if it's sped up too much it lags which is a problem for narrators, but it's ok for Pokemon battles.

[symphonyx64]

Oh, I see.

Its really the best program for editing Pokémon battles.

Other videos, not so much.

[IceWave44]

That's why I asked, cause I thought I recognized its editing effects.

[symphonyx64]

Oddly enough, Just Windows Movie Maker.

Previously, it used to be x5 more complex.

[IceWave44]

What's your editing system?

[Infowarrior1337]

Very amusing, thanks for that :D

[symphonyx64]

Thanks.
