You think it sucks for minor and trivial reasons like you do with everything else Pokemon related, don't you /vp/?
>>
I patiently await the day TPCi sends a cease & decist. :-^)
>>
>>24627684
For reasons you'll never explain because lollz (Internet Pokemon related thing here) sucks.
>>
>>24627611
What are you getting at?

It's nice to have an easily accessible system in place to battle online in various formats and share replays with much more ease than on cart. It sucks that the laddering system keeps breaking, where players in the 1000s can get matched to players who are 1700+.

Hey zarel
You suck at coding

I'm just grateful that they implemented the disabling of your opponent's chat. I'm was getting sick of listening to 12 year olds complain about hax and typing Ctr + V "you suck cock"
>>
its objectively the best of a bad situation

probably the worst part is that its infested with children and autists who think that some arbitrary number system is going to validate their enjoyment of pokemon

after seeing the replays of the current #1 OU player begging people he loses against (basically when his stall team gets critted twice) to quit so he can keep his points i'm too disgusted to touch it

i love pokemon but people like that ruin everything they touch and i don't want to feel associated with them

>>24627730
Not going to provide any examples? Classic /vp/. Everything Pokemon related sucks, doesn't it?
>>
Absolute shit. Horrible design and coding, too many restrictions, laggy and has shitty Fakemons.
>>
>>24627785
Where is the coding shitty? The source is on github, point out an example.
>>
>>24627611
I can't enjoy playing on cart because it's always vs some noob with all legends or an in-game team. Neither of which are fun to play against and are very easy to beat.

I can't enjoy showdown anymore because it's full of faggots and autists who complain about hax, stall, H-O, set-up, and alternative play-styles. Pretty much everything vp complains about except you get it directly in real time.

On showdown, whether you win or lose, your team is shit for "x" reason.

Is there an alternative, or a group of people I can attach myself to who won't complain about stupid shit?

zarel go home

you're a shitty coder who made a pseudo-rng focused simulator and hopefully soon nintendo will keep you from sleeping at night since the lawyers will own your ability to empty your bowels without command
>>
>>24627849
After you point out an example of why you think the coding is shitty. You're pretty content on your opinion, so you should be able to find an example easily right?

>Ladder keeps mismatching players
>Site keeps going down
>Ladder updates consistently fail to display, meaning they won't show your progress in replays
>Replays are occasionally unavailable due to the server unable to support uploading them
>Switching sides causes the game to pause
>>
>>24627860

fuck off your transparent autist, nobody is going to do your work or your proofreading for you

please feel free to ignore criticism though since apparently everyone has to disavow themselves of being more "accomplished" than you before they voice their opinion

by the way, great job on being the personal savior of pedophiles and 13 year old autists, im sure their respect is the only thing waking you up to bugfix every morning
>>
>>24627914
So I take it you're not going to give me an example?
>>
>>24627936

see

>>24627913

it's almost like arguing with an idiot who can't code
>>
I really love PS! its a great pokemon sim that also lets you socialize for free
>>
>>24627943
Those are two different people. I was specifically asking the guy I replied to.
>>
>>24627961

protip: im the same guy you're replying to

good job outing yourself on being a retard. i'm gonna stop replying, feel free to sit on that pedestal and rationalize PS being good because someone pointing out flaws with it won't repost corrected source on github so you don't have to

kill yourself

OP here.

This thread actually went better than a expected.

It doesn't take much to trigger you, does it /vp/?
>>
>>24627783
>>24627860
you're lucky memebasemon is down, there was a saved replay that involved an egregious amount of glitching.
>>
>>24628064
Go ahead. Meme me.
>>
>>24628019
Well how the fuck was I supposed to know that you double posted?
>>
>>24628067
I repeat, "memebase is down. link to saved replay unavailable"

I also wish I could find the one where we screencapped a shedinja at 65% health, and stuck a bunch of "has science gone too far?" clickbait messages on it.

The elo hell experience never ceases to amaze me.

I wish randoms would be balanced more such NU sweepers like Basculin wouldn't obliterate everything. Since it's still free and accessible I can't really complain.

What would really make it better though is a way to punish ragequitters.
>>
>>24627611
playing cart got better this gen but still sucks, Showdown is still the best way to go
>>
Is its RNG on point in it?

I often get huge chains on crits and freezes and smacking myself on the head with hurricane confusions against me that upset me way more than they should.
>>
>>24630408
It does feel like burns, confusion, etc happens more frequently on Showdown. That's probabaly because you can finish a battle and get into another one in 5 seconds. Where as on the cart it can take awhile to find another battle.
>>
>>24630405
completely agree. Thanks to breeding decent IVs being easy now. I've put an extra 300 hours into X even though there's fuck all to do after the main game just from breeding and battling
>>
This thread provides a better example than I could ever give to why /vp/ is going down the shitter. Everybody who was involved in posting content last night as responsible.

Just... Jesus. Christ.

they'd rather ragequit then watch their opponent be declared the winner

Showderp is literally the only reason I ever come to /vp/.

Everything else here is just furry porn.

Well, it's like what /vp/ always told me: fuck pokemon.
