That, and I'm using a team created in about ten minutes at 1 AM that is half composed of things I've never used in my life :>

Took a narrow 2-0 victory over Pianomaster19. That battle had me shaking in my boots, great game!

I was calling it out against you, Matty. But, from the post above, my prediction didn't happen.

VRSN: VictoryRoad Sports News


Hello, Hello! This is Nytz Reporting live in the VR stadium for the 2nd edition of Victory Road Sports News, where Mattybrolic's Victory Road Championship tournament of 2015 continues. And what a fine day it has been, for all combatants are giving it their all out there! I can hear the war cries of pokemon, and the cheering of the spectators. I would like to take this time to focus on the "Champion in the making" segment.

Champion in the makings

And here we are, watching from birds eye view of the stadium. we're here to ask spectators out of pure sportsmanship and fun, who do YOU think will win? Well, Mattybrolic is looking like he's on fire! He's dominated CinnabarPyro, annialated Cowboy, and Triumphed over Pianomaster19! Still, kudos to those who tried hard yet fell short against this beastly trainer. In the meanwhile, we have Kakashidragon, who seems to be trucking ahead as well, having defeated Reuniclus in a intense battle! He's still pending on his battle with Dragonite; and that I speak for all spectators will definately be a battle you won't want to miss! Who will be champion? well, it's still hard to say, for there are really talented trainers out there in this tournament. So this concludes this segement of Champion in the Makings, Back to you, Nytz.

***

Ah, yes, thank you, Nytz. We're here live now waiting for the battles between combatants. Here's what we're up against:

Twiggy Vs. Cat333Pokemon. Yes, you heard it. Twiggy vs, our beloved Admin. Surely an emotional battle to be had. We also have Kakashidragon vs. Dragonite, which will be an edge of your seat battle to be sure! So many powerful trainers, I can hardly wait to see the outcome! I'm Nytz, signing out in VRSN!

Lol, well, it's the least I can do... I couldn't join the tourney... but I like it better being a spokesperson (I believe it's called) for the tourney. Plus, I'm actually having fun doing this. ^_^

Lost narrowly to Kakashi. And by that I mean I got slapped harder than the Mets did in the 2000 World Series: Z3MW-WWWW-WWXW-NSMK

And for the record, no, I did not change my team, I have Mega stones on two Pokémon :P

I did some math afterwards and my Scarf'd Modest Heatran has 168 points of Speed at level 50, and Jolly Unscarf'd Garchomp has 169.

Yay.

Nope, just barely. My Heatran with a Choice Scarf at level 100 has 329 points of speed, and Garchomp can have up to 333.

Kicking myself for not going for a Timid Heatran all the way back in W2 D:

Heatran I caught in AS is Jolly, which is downright laughable. (Didn't SR because I had a recording going and didn't want to waste time :P)

Suppose I could do some "corrections" on it in BW and ship it through, but that's arguable more work than just battling with a Modest Heatran. Or fighting with something else.

Heck, I'm still waiting for Cat and Twiggy to battle so that I can battle whoever wins that match... *twiddles thumbs somewhat impatiently*

Also nobody seems to have done any of the loser's bracket matches...

Confirming this. Ultimately would have ended up being a 5-0 victory.

True that. His move dealt a lot more damage to my Mega than I had anticipated. Thankfully it didn't crit or it definitely would have been a 4-0.

Now I have to hope that my dorm's wi-fi doesn't suck. It didn't suck with Smash Bros, but I actually haven't tested Pokemon out yet. Hopefully it'll work. XP

I managed to triumph over Kakashidragon in a tight 4-0 (almost 3-0) victory! GG to him. ^_^

Sub and JD were supposed to battle tonight but I'm not sure of what happened. *sigh*
I'm trying really hard to facilitate this tournament but it has been so difficult to get everyone to cooperate and complete their matches.

I think it's moving along pretty swiftly, actually. I tried running an 8-person single elimination a few years ago and the whole thing fell apart by the second round S:

JDx and I began our battle but his internet went out. We hadn't completely knocked out either Pokémon though I would say he held a slight advantage. We may try again.

True, but the deadline for this tourney is supposed to be Saturday because Reuniclus, Cowboy, Piano master, Trees, and myself all go back to school the next day which could make the tournament more difficult to run.

I particularly have a lot of things to deal with as soon as I go back which may eat up a lot of my time for the first couple of weeks or so which is why I'd like to finish the tournament by Saturday

Pulled a win on JDx, though he handicapped himself.

Victory on my part. 2-0.

Cinnabarpyro advances as the beneficiary of a coin flip due to the inability of himself and Tarellethiel coordinating their battle. Please get your battles done, people... I really don't want to have to flipva coin for anyone else!

VRSN: VICTORY ROAD SPORTS NEWS
NEWS UPDATE

Hello, hello, This is Nytz and welcome to another news update in the first Pokemon Tournament kickoff of the year! We're here, live in the colosseum searching for some of these talented trainers for a few... well, live interviews.

It would appear that Kakashidragon, a spotlight regular has shown such spectacular performance, although dethroned and placed in the losers bracket, still, there is hope for redemption. Kakashidragon, please, tell me, your feelings about this tournament. what is the passion that drives you and your pokemon?

In the meanwhile, we have in the main brackets, Mattybrolic, who is getting the crowd turned to 11 with his battle tactics! he will now be battling GrasspokemonFTW, in an intense battle to be certain. Mattybrolic, you've been undefeated thus far. is the pressure of battle weighing you down? or are you feeling such adrenaline that propels you forward?

As for GrasspokemonFTW, your opponent is Mattybrolic, who has been known for his prowess in skill. Do you feel the tension? or are you laxed about this? Please, do tell.


GET READY FOR THE NEXT BATTLE!

YES! It's what the crowd is waiting for! Welcome to the VRSN segment, "GET READY FOR THE NEXT BATTLE!" where I your host will be giving you the 411 on the pending battles. Here I am, live in the subdome, but let's see who we're wating on now:

First we have Magmaster12 vs. CinnabarPyro. And from previous performances, we already know this is gonna be a good one!

Next in the waiting list, is Dragonite vs. Subzero! With names like that, seems like Dragonite will have a type disadvantage, but don't judge a book by it's cover!

Then we have, Cowboy vs. Reuniclus. Two powerful opponents clash in this must see battle! We'll that's all from me. Nytz, wrap this up, c'mon!


***

Thank you. So there you have it, folks! we're getting down to the wire here with this tournament, so stay tuned next time, on VRSN!

Commercial: if you are strong, you may be getting watched. can you survive our power? TEAM LUNACY, a bounty hunters clan.

Beware.




(PS: forgive me. I couldn't do this sooner.)

As for my interview, the pressure gets higher and higher for each round that I move on to. I've only battled GrasspokemonFTW once before, and his team was very tricky so I don't know what to expect. When the battles come around, I do my best to turn my nerves in to a focused rush of adrenaline rather than letting them get the best of me! I will be looking forward to battling Grass this Friday night!

It's hard to say what I'm feeling in this upcoming battle. I have to say, my Pokémon team has really pulled through for me, and I cannot express how grateful I am that they've held in there through so many tough battles. But I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous. Matty had me beat in a decisive 3-0 in our last encounter, which was at the first Victory Road Champion Tournament, and consequently knocked me out of the tournament in Round 5 of loser's bracket and putting me in 4th. My team has definitively changed since then, but Matty's probably has as well. So I feel that while our last match has no bearing on our match on Friday, I also feel like we're in the fog about what strategies we'll need to be ready for.

That said, I've already performed better than last time. While I placed 4th in the last tournament, I'm guaranteed at least 3rd place with my performance thus far. In essence, I've shown some degree of improvement. But I still want to win. Everyone does. And who knows; even though I defeated Kakashidragon in the last round, he could come around and take me down again. There's all a degree of uncertainty that is bound to make me nervous overall, but I know that I've accomplished what I've set out to do, which is improve upon my understanding of the art of competitive battle.

Tis was a good game with Dragonite! It would've ended sooner had I remembered that sound based attacks broke through subs. XD

Win for me! 3-0

And there I was, thinking I'd be able to PP stall your entire team with just one Pokémon :/

Either that or find out what happens if you actually let the battle clock wind down for the first time in my competitive career.

Meh, that's something I don't usually do. I'm a former baseball player. Forfeiting isn't really a game element.

Anyhow, now that I'm officially out, any of you other eliminated people want to battle?

Matty defeated me in a well deserved 2-0. I was barely keeping up with him, until the very end...and even then, I got really lucky at times.

To both Cat and Magmaster12, I see that you two are both busy so if you are not able to battle by tomorrow night I will end up flipping a coin to determine the winner.

Excuses excuses. What kind of M-Diance are you running that you can't outspeed Bisharp? I thought M-Diance base speed was 110 and Bisharp's 80.

Anywho, I'm back! Let's do this!

Oooh, gotcha. Tough luck, mahboi. I assume you never had the change to safely bring in Diance so you never Mega'd beforehand, huh? I'd think the best call for any Mega (except Garchomp) would be to Mega evolve almost asap if it's typing remains the same. For stuff like Charizard X and Altaria, 'tis different. That's why I like Altaria. So fluffy. :3
