Southperry Battles - MasPan - 2013-10-20
[COLOR="#cc8899"]Just a place to post your battles, especially those with other Southperrians.
Jed and I each chose a type unknown to the other and came up with a "theme" for this battle. This was the rematch - the first was a lot more one-sided due to him selecting Fighting...while my typing was Rock. I also realized a critical mistake in my movepool on Aerodactyl in game one that I corrected to great effect in game two. We both made some noteworthy misplays, and I later regretted choosing Scald over Surf for Omastar (would've made a difference vs Heracross).
The rules we followed were:
No same pokemon, no Uber/Legendary/Megas, no same item

Jed (Fighting, "Toxic" theme): Hawlucha, Heracross, Blaziken, Chesnaught, Gallade, Scraggy
MasPan (Rock, "Fossil" theme): Aurorus, Aerodactyl, Omastar, Kabutops, Bastiodon, Shuckle (technically not a fossil but I didn't have time to get my 6th fossil ready. Would've likely been Archeops)[/COLOR]
Southperry Battles - MasPan - 2013-10-23
[COLOR="#cc8899"]VS Recorder code:
6MWW-WWWW-WWWX-QGC3
MasPan vs [MENTION=5228]Razmos[/MENTION];
MasPan: Klefki, Aerodactyl(M), Greninja, Shuckle, Goodra
Razmos: Gourgeist, Crobat, Politoed, Gardevoir(M), Greninja
Was a lot closer than I thought it would be. Parahax made it easy to set up a lot of Spikes early, but dodgehax bit me in the ass a bit later at a pivotal moment and cost me dearly. I'm really surprised at how well Shuckle performed, though a bit of that was just good luck/prediction. Even then, if not for Rocky Helmet, he would've been mostly irrelevant.
Crobat stealing my Leftovers really caught me off guard and made me sad, incidentally. I was also really sad that the Politoed wasn't a Drizzletoed - I had to set up my own damned rain.
Fun match Razmos. Let's do this again sometime. [/COLOR]

Dat 5 turn paralyze. :'(
You have a really good strategy, you really lucked out though having your Shuckle with Rocky Helmet when the only 2 pokemon I had left were physical attackers

[COLOR="#cc8899"]Thanks! The missing pokemon on my team was a Hydration Toxicroak meant to heal up in the rain as well (minor Rain Dance theme). I still had my Goodra too (albeit asleep), but yeah. If that Thunder Fang had hit, I think Aerodactyl(M) could've swept most of what was left. Greninja with 3/4 HP vs a SE Tough Claws boosted Thunder Fang or a STAB Stone Edge...idk the math, but it'd be close. In retrospect an Earthquake probably would've taken out Politoed unless he's got some investment in DEF. I also lucked out severely in you not having a strong Fire or Ground attack to take out Klefki early. I really expected you to swap out your Gourgeist (awesome shiny btw) but I guess it would've been able to wall a bit better had any of the Shadow Forces gotten through Para earlier.
Might be worth considering a support move on your Crobat, though how often do you run into Rocky Helm Shuckles...*Shrug*
At any rate, it was a really fun (and kindof funny) match, I enjoy casual battles like that much more than "ERMEHGERD 31 IV ALL STATS MEHRTEHR"[/COLOR]
