I have reverted to pokemon related subjects for this video due to the influx of Garchomp as uber vids. This is tongue in cheek stuff, enjoy.


My opinion on the matter is, it makes f* all difference either way. Every team carries a Slamance/Garchomp resistance in standard battles, and maybe a second who has the capabilities to take it down too. Removing one of that pair leaves the other just as prolific and changes little in terms of usage of other pokes.

Smogon is just trying to shake things up a little. Take out a major player and watch the metagame revamp itself and get interesting agaian instead of collecting dust. They couldn't have picked a more popular target though and most battlers so far seem to be ignoring Smogon for the first time in my memory and just using Chomp regardless...

But then again what do I know? Have my opinions on the subject been universally accepted for years until now? Hardly, there is method behind their madness and I can see the game accepting it, reluctantly, given time.

  • People don't get it. Smogon plays by its own rules. You can do whatever the hell you want on your own(have fun with attract clefairy or whatever shit) but if you are playing on Smogon's server, you have playing competitively, and cheap bastards like Garchomp aren't allowed. Here's why Garchomp was banned: Sand veil. It makes the game a joke. You can never hit the thing reliably and it can win games it shouldn't because of luck. End of story.

  • @Eutubeable Bullshit. Whats with paralyze for example? Sometimes you are stunned sometimes you aren't. But that certainly doesn't involve luck, huh?

  • why can't i hear the audio? please someone help!

  • I bought this game i'll use what i want i can just go on gts random match up or just play with friends the fuck do i care XD

  • Hey you can use duclops now :)

  • 101 people play at serebi

  • ah here he comes (sounds wrong)

    look down there sonny, what do you see (getting weirder)

    YES!!! ok its bad! but here at smogon we have a solution! come with me! (hes going too far)

    very cunning i must say! but can you pull it off? (getting weirder again!)

    you may well be more than just our new boy toy (hes going for rape)

    add other parts in and maybe change little bits here and there to make the look gay (for his alone pleasure)

    he seems like a harmless old paedophile (not harmlass to me!)

  • @Eutubeable

    Anyone who has a harem of whores and the aids virus (Because he/she got 'em from said whore) and a way to get money will never understand...Because it's a child's game.

    The entire game is luck based. It was Game Freak's design. I've gone to school for this stuff out of sheer boredom. Turn based rpg's with the same mechanics as this game are usually based on luck and smarts. If you're too stupid to find an effective way to beat it. Go play pong!

  • @BlueMoonSaber

    You...Tell me...Do you want to play a child's game that's ENTIRELY BASED ON LUCK! that seriously? Do you want to suffer the same fate as brain and his cult of basement dwellers?

    Then I suggest you play the game it was meant to be played, the way game freak wanted you to.

    Then again I'm just preaching to the converted. No use in trying to save you from the circle of hell Smogon (And by default, You) has put itself into.

  • I use smogon for tips but thats about it. Taking a childrens game so seriously is more sad than funny.

  • Know whats funny, the term "smongontard" is actually on the urban dictionary online XD
