Dragonite June 22, 2014 06:26:23 PM

I actually don't have my 3DS right now (had to send it somewhere to get it fixed), but I should get it back/make a team before the deadlines, so I'll join too.

Sub-zero June 22, 2014 06:27:00 PM

Trees June 22, 2014 06:54:42 PM

Nice we got Reuniclus joining too!!

Dragonite June 22, 2014 07:09:43 PM

Also, completely off-topic, but does it strike anyone as weird to be having a Dragonite (OU) and a Reuniclus (UU) in an NU tournament? o-o

Cat333Pokémon June 22, 2014 07:37:06 PM

As of right now, I cannot participate in this tournament. The start date is when I leave on vacation, and the end date is when I return. :P Now, I'm not sure if I'm actually going on that vacation yet.

pianomaster19 June 23, 2014 06:18:43 AM

Im joining this tournament as well.
First-time poster. Can't wait to accidentally embarrass myself on the forum.

Trees June 23, 2014 08:51:38 AM

Welcome pianomaster!!! Im glad to see a new face around here. Just try to have fun and you'll do awesome!

Trees June 23, 2014 09:14:40 AM

Awwww, well Cat333pokemon just keep me updated if you can make it or not!!!

Aquablast June 23, 2014 02:56:20 PM

kakashidragon June 26, 2014 04:15:38 PM

I will be going down to Missouri sometime in during this or after the 8th im not sure. But im pretty sure i can get wifi were im going. (Going to see some family for a week) But im at home, i have to find a good place to get better wifi signal as my new room gets barely any signal. (Jumps from 1-3 bars)

Yay!!! The show could not go on without Kakashi Sensei!!!!

MattyBrollic June 27, 2014 12:41:52 PM

KarlWiesner is joining the tournament. He is new to the forum and was having trouble navigating it which is why I am signing him up for him.

kakashidragon June 27, 2014 06:39:05 PM

If we get a mega pokemon, theres no NU mon that has a mega. (Thats not a Uber) Plus im pretty sure the mega would sweep the whole tier.

MattyBrollic June 28, 2014 09:47:31 AM

No megas allowed in NU!!!

karlwiesner June 29, 2014 09:05:54 AM

kakashidragon July 2, 2014 08:57:49 AM

Dragonite said if he wasnt able to battle me by the end of last night, he would have to forfeit. (Just ask him to make sure)

Dragonite July 2, 2014 02:00:32 PM

What Kakashi said.

And yeah, it turns out I'll be having family over tonight and don't even know what I'll be putting my team, so I think I'm going to have to forfeit this one. Sorry, guys, maybe next time.

MattyBrollic July 2, 2014 06:02:29 PM

Won my first round match against Cowboy 4-0.

kakashidragon July 2, 2014 07:30:30 PM

Good news, im staying down here with my other family members for awhile so i'll be able to battle in this thing. After awhile i'll be staying with my aunt and she has no wifi just normal internet.

Sub-zero July 5, 2014 12:47:53 PM

Just FYI, I haven't forgotten about this tourney. I've just been very occupied. I will try to get my battle with Reuniclus today. It'll mostly be random Pokemon from this tier cause I've no time to assemble a synced team.

Edit: Unable to meet my challenger. You can go ahead and disqualify me from the tourney.

kakashidragon July 7, 2014 02:24:05 PM

Im back guys and ready for action! Just hope aqua blast gets on today

Aquablast July 7, 2014 03:17:27 PM

Kakashi won, he defeated me 5-0.

Dude was that u i battled?

Reuniclus July 7, 2014 04:51:11 PM

I lost to Matt 0-1
Super close. I made a terrible misclick in the middle of the match, but I think all of the misses he had makes up for it. :P

kakashidragon July 7, 2014 04:55:10 PM

So who am i battling next?

MattyBrollic July 7, 2014 05:10:52 PM

I won against Reuniclus in a nail biter. 1-0 Good game.

kakashidragon July 7, 2014 05:30:16 PM

Waiting on pianomaster19 now. (He added)

kakashidragon July 7, 2014 06:30:40 PM

Yeah i lost. Hes pretty good, i think i over predicted alittle tho. NU is tricky, im not as good there.

pianomaster19 July 7, 2014 07:06:53 PM

So I somehow managed to defeat both my opponents today: Kakashi by 4-0 and MattyBro in a 1-0 nailbiter. I still maintain that both matches could have gone either way, especially the second one. Let's just say accuracy calc was on my side. Shoutout to my opponents for the great games.

MattyBrollic July 7, 2014 07:57:21 PM

Pianomaster beat me in the most exciting battle Ive had in a while. Take out the hax and I probably would have won but its part of the game and I had fun. Reuniclus on the other hand is like battling a slot machine. I missed focus blast 3 times in a row, lost all 3 speed ties, got a minimum damage roll and he KOed one of my mons, and got a maximum damage roll to KO another one of my mons. His misclick hardly mattered because I lost the speed ties the next turn anyway. Somehow I still won.

kakashidragon July 8, 2014 08:41:38 AM

U know i think NU isnt my strong point, i think im just so used to OU so much that i think im playing in that tier for the whole switching with U-turn or Voltswitch to much isnt a good idea. (I had 2 U-turners and 1 Voltswitcher)

MattyBrollic July 8, 2014 02:47:40 PM

Ah I see. NU has become one of my strong points as I got to #4 on the laddet on Pokemon ******** testing out my team. And yet Pianomaster still beat me; sigh.

MattyBrollic July 22, 2014 09:47:56 AM

Since no one posted here, I will. Trees DESTROYED me 5-0 in the losers bracket finals and went on to lose to Pianomaster19 3-0 in the finals of the tournament. CONGRATULATIONS TO PIANOMASTER FOR WINNING HIS FIRST TOURNAMENT ON THE FORUM!!! Congrats to Trees as well for a close second! Thanks to everyone who participated! STAY TUNED BECAUSE IN A WEEK OR SO I PLAN ON HOSTING A BIG OU TOURNAMENT TO CLOSE OUT THE SUMMER! Hopefully we can get more participants than ever before!

kakashidragon July 22, 2014 02:15:47 PM

And this time i'll actully be to battle and not waiting a week.
