pholtos' Rando Pokemon Tourney IV - Final Round

[Dizzybelle]

Well played Dog, I was SUPER scared of your team
I'm surprised I made it through! :D

[pholtos]

Unless something happens soon I'm just gonna have all the people tied for 10th place just be 10th place since none of them seem to have responded or anything.

Prepare for RIDICULOUS BODY TYPE SHENANIGANS.

No, seriously, prepare. These teams are both...things.

bbbrrr_it_cold (tentacles or multi-ped body) vs. Dog in da Grass (bipedal, tail-less)

I won?

I went into this fully expecting to lose. As I told Dog prior, I had 8 options. The two I didn't pick, if you can't be bothered to check the list, were Omastar and Jellicent. I didn't have anyone above 200 speed, I didn't have a whole lot in the way of coverage, and I wasn't sure about how things would work. But I had statuses and entry hazards galore and Octothorpe, Lt. Scourge and POLYGON Z all did their jobs exceedingly well (and Trick or Treat, despite having no ghost moves, was a good ghost). So...yeah. Those were fun, if weird.

But, hey, this means that either BK or I will be the victor of this tier. So...no endless struggles there.

BK VS BBBRR
In a WEATHER MATCH
basically the stipulation we were given was "all pokemon need weather moves or abilities"
so things got pretty interesting

WINNER:

________BK__________

thats the most stressful battle ive had in ages ;w;
felt like two people fighting over a light switch yelling RAIN! SUN! RAIN! SUN!

[bbbrrr_it_cold]

Alas, Fo' Drizzle, he served me well.
Really though, that was both fun and stressful. I had first wanted to made a weather disruption team, but that went nowhere fast. Then I wanted to make a hail/rain team, but that went nowhere even faster. So I took the remnants of that rain team and added stuff to make it a fuller team. But, man, that was difficult to build.

Not that it would have mattered, but I kind of wish I had realized earlier that Defog got rid of my own Sticky Web...

[Dog In Da Grass]

Oh cool! That weather gimic seems really cool! Yeah! Congrats to Bk for winning our trio! what were we fighting for? 4th or 5th place?

*coughs* much better than the body shape one and getting stuck with human shape or tentacle beasts.

Sorry I couldn't think up three nifty gimmicks :P

I think the colour one was good but with the body type one, there were just too many that don't have many Pokemon in them at all.
