The person won easily because they used strategy rather than brute offence like the person who lost, Dark Void Smeargle is a bit cheap, but the other guy was using an Uber...

[dragon9owns]

It's only uber in competitive battling which is singles, it isn't AS great in doubles.

[UltimateUnknown]

This is what happens when there is no sleep clause in effect. Bullshit like Dark Void Smearegle djust destroy the game, whats the fun in this. That guy more or less played to win rather than to show some skills.

Oh well, I think I respect the other guy for trying to battle head on, I am definitely making a lead counter for this darkrai and smearegle strategy.

Thank you to everyone who replied! Still, it's sad to see someone have to resort to something as lame as a dark void smeargle.

hey guys does anyone knw of any vgc where there was no ubers and it was a great fight?? i love the ones in Australia they were intense

[Flamestrke]

@RobotsGreatWar2 pfft your thinking too hard, a pokemon with insomnia/vital spirit or even jus a lum berry should deal wiv it, or of course a scarfed poekomn with hypnosis haha

[mrsmartguy1000]

@flyingholycrap12 smearglr can LEARN ANY MOVE

[evilsuicune]

@RobotsGreatWar2 super true

@UltimateUnknown

How about a Stalling Yanmega? Get Yanmega to raise it's speed stat untl it can wipe out Darkrai with U-turn or Bug Buzz. That's what I'd do.

STAB ICE BEAM BREAKS THROUGH YACHE BERRY...!

@DeagleBeagle Darkrai is banned because of his stats :D

[DeagleBeagle]

@JustGonnaLiveMyLife he technically did nothing wrong since what he did was legal. However, I am saying it makes no sense to ban darkrai and then say you can sketch a move off of it and use that pokemon in competition.

[JustGonnaLiveMyLife]

@DeagleBeagle He Sketched it from a Darkrai. He did nothing wrong, someone else did. He followed all the rules. Considering the opponent made the fatal mistake of allowing the Smeargle to use Trick Room was a display of his naive skills. If you see a Smeargle, it is practically screaming "Rawr sleep"

[DeagleBeagle]

@JustGonnaLiveMyLife no, has nothing to do with it, all non-event pokemon are allowed except ubers. Also, smeargle should never have been allowed because you have to get dark void from sketching darkrai which was a banned pokemon. Makes no sense whatsoever but w/e nintendo is retarded.
