previous thread >>26339626
First for Derwin.
Is this a circlejerk thread?
>>26348019
I'll jerk you :^)
>>26347932
Glad to have the thread back.
Sucks that /vp/ gets overrun by underage this time of year. All they do is post garbage.
>>26348431
Underage?
>>26348455
kids who aren't in school because
a) it's a weekend, and
b) many schools are out of session for the summer now
we could do multibattles
i-if you want to
>>26348987
I'm down
If anyone is alive, i'm around for battles.
>>26349881
Nobody's alive. You turned them all into your team.
>>26350331
Seems you may be right. We really seem to fluctuate in activity, alive for a few days then dead the next, and repeat.
Applying the AED
pls
>>26352580
I'm just looking for the fighting and dark gyms to open up. Haven't seen dark once while I was online, or at all recently.
Wait, when did Druides replace Hana?
>>26356666
Holy fucking quads, it must have been while everyone was sleeping last night.
>>26356644
Guess that solves that problem, druides is pretty active. Ryan oughta come on every once in a while to, i know he is alive so shooting him and email can't be a bad idea.
>>26356704
Yeah. I saw Ryan yesterday, but just as I was about to challenge, got drawn away by company coming over, hadn't expected them as soon as they arrived.
I'll be on in two hours.
>>26356666
Never

Battle!
>>26359596
Ok.
Just resubmitted. Any gyms open right now?
>>26359562
Yes
>>26359562
I was under the impression that Hana and Rena/Emilio were battling, so I decided I'd either wait my turn or see if anyone else is available.
>>26359598
The sludge bomb was a huge mistake GG
>>26359878
GG.

Wait, yeah, wasn't Wrath next? He should go.
I can wait. Add when when you're ready, sempai.
>>26360342
Aniny. I don't post with my trip in other threads, usually. Just quickly filled in the name field without typing it all out.
>>26360352
It's cool, as long as I get in sometime before Hana leaves for the day/night.
Just don't forget me completely, please! I've been waiting a week for you.
>>26360389
You
>>26360352

>>26360953
This is for my attempt #2, by the way.
So different team.
Submitted the form a little while ago.

>>26361241
Planning to be there for attempt 2.
>>26360979
oh, sorry.
Good game, bruh.
>>26361289
Good game.
Closing down for today.
Memes
>>26362915
More memes
>>26361272
Really sorry man, but im absolutely exhausted and cant open tonight. In bed atm. I absolutely promise to be on tomorrow though at 9 est. That goes for anyone else who wants to challenge.
>>26364649
It's cool. I'll be here.
>>26364649
Get some rest, man.

>>26372236

>>26372286
Fite me.
>>26372380
ok senpai. added your fc, just waiting on you
Dark Type gym is open.
>>26374183
I challenge you to a rematch.
>>26374258
Ok.
>>26374297
>selected the wrong lead
Here goes game 2.
>>26374376
I believe in you. Come and meet me at the summit Wrath!
>>26374446
Your belief was not misplaced!
>>26374297
Thanks for the matches, you made me work for the victory!
>>26374483
Hey, Couldn't keep you down forever.
Good luck.
Reporting in from beyond the grave, OOOoooooOOOoOoOOO!!!!!!
>>26374519
Still around?
>>26375166
Yes.
>>26375203
looks like I need a system update.
>>26375307
No problem, I have time.
>>26374571
I think I'm gonna rematch you last. I'm pretty sure there's no way to beat you and that's a bit depressing.
>>26375327
When I saw that reality with two leaders at the same time, I called it quits with my first team. I only had one badge and one loss against each.
My record's currently a little better than that.
>>26375327
Why not get it done quick, like a band aid? It would let you rebuild your team super speedy if you need to. Either way, i will be around whenever you are ready for a battle, be it today or some other day.
>>26375445
Huh. I dunno.
Now that I fought Hana, I've seen what all the leaders like to do at least once. Yeah, sure, you guys can change your teams, but I figure that most of you aren't likely to completely overhaul.
I know I can beat Hana, Anthony, and Mige without changing anything. It's just a matter of them or I picking the right combination, and in Hana's case, getting lucky.
I guess the logical thing is to rematch Mr. Mike, and if I lose, to start over. The few changes I have to make to stop Trick Room won't affect my performance against the others by much at all.
Maybe I'm full of crap, but that's the way I see it now.
>>26375663
I will say i have been working on getting a full stall team together, but i'm nowhere near ready enough to whip it out yet. So you will know pretty well what you will be up against, at the very least
>>26376066
I enjoy my Normal stall team quite a bit, but I mostly just use it for Battle Spot. Worked out pretty horribly in the season 2 tournament.
FIGHTING GYM OPEN. I will be open for 2 hours or so. Get in while you can.
>>26376543
I challenge you to a rematch.
>>26376602
Good games, Wrath. Game 2 had some unfortunate rng, and I got lucky that you brought all your special attackers for the first game, my machamp was able to shine.
I'll see you soon for round 3.
>>26376915
I didn't know it had that. I was cursing myself out for doing that, I NEVER focus on one side and not the other.
RNG hates me all the time. Just keep using Machamp and you'll beat me again.
bumpin
arite well fuk u too thread, gym closed.
>>26378121
How about you get on so i can smesh ur butthole. Also looking for Daniel,Anthony,Hana and Mige
I had some fun screwing around in the "pick your favorites" thread. I just couldn't stop at 20, though.
anyone here?
>>26380219
I'm still around
>>26380259
yeah boi fightan time
>>26380273
Be online in a few.
GGs Emilio, one more chance to defeat me. I'll stay on for a bit more if anyone needs me.
>>26380307
I really have to rely on luck or else the next time we face off I will be done for. 2 of my pokes are completely useless against ghosts and they are the ones I like to use the most. GGs though the last two fights were expertly fought.
We descend into death again. I'm out for the night.
..
3v3 lvl 50 or 100?
>>26384485
It plays Flat Rules. OR/AS only.
where the gym leaders at?
Dragon gym open.
Ryan, I'm waiting for you. WE'RE waiting for you.
Last attempt!
>>26388723
I believe. You can achieve.
>>26388723
It's time
FIGHTAN GYM OPEN
>>26390163
Just you and me. No items. Fox only. Final Destination.
... Wait, wrong game.
Hopping online now.
Open says me!
>>26390616
Shit. I completely lost track of time and thread and i cant battle now. Im very sorry wrath. I have the day off tomorrow though so i PROMISE you that we will get it on then. If not, i will step down as leader.
>>26391611
No need to go that far, you've been plenty active. And I'll be around as well tomorrow, until the evening, got D&D then.
>>26391879
he's just being dramatic
>>26393824
Honestly I've felt pretty guilty about not being around more. Ive been super busy with work so i can only squeeze in a couple hours a day, and thats when i dont pass out.
BUT like i said i have today off. So gym will open soon
>>26398871
Neat. I'll be around for a little over an hour before I go to D&D, then I'll be back around 9:30 EST if we don't battle before I go.
You've still been active, you even check in when you can't battle that night and let people know.
>>26398968
you still here? we can go right now quickly. If not, we'll definitely rumble later tonight.
>>26399391
later tonight it is! See you then. And I >may have some new mons on my team.
>>26398968
>>26399391
>>26399619
Ryan is best gym, and anyone that disagrees is a stupid salty spoopy type gym leader named Mike............................:^).......
I will be around for about and hour or so before i go to bed starting now. I'm gonna be away for the weekend, so if need be druides can fill in for my spot temporarily, and i should be back on tuesday.
FIGHTING GYM OPEN IN 10 MINUTES
OPEN SESAME

Let's get this over with
>>26403657
I'll be on in a moment
>>26403617
Ready for me?
I can't believe how lucky i got in that last battle, it seems the universe conspires against you. Unfortunately, that's the last of this run for you, hopefully next time there is a lot less bullshit on the leaders side, cause i know from experience that sucks. Best of luck with your next attempt.
wew bbys fairy gym open,mostly for onyxbut open anyway :D
>>26403857
Yes I am. I have some new team members as well, so i'm looking forward to this
>>26403913
Battle me : ^)
>>26403927
wew bby lets go
>>26403877
Looks like it's time to find some different mons that can get the job done I really wanted this team to get through but it's time I retired some and add new ones
Well, it looks like my challenge is officially over.
I'm not restarting for now.
>>26403857
Wrath, you really brought it close. My new mons didn't stand a chance the first game, and I had to play perfectly the last game to work around dragonite.
Sorry for the reset man, and I look forward to your next run.
Fighting Gym remains open for all other challengers
Closing up now. If anyone needs battles, druides will probably be taking my place untill tuesday. I got the official letter of gym leaderships sent to him directly from nintendo, so its all legit.
fight gym closed, see y'all later

>>26440417
GGs although game 1's ending was really weird you could have easily taken me out with your fighting bird what happened there? Also rockbird is MVP with outspeeding double boosted sanic birde woohoo
>>26440850
I needed enough health to bulk a psychic from kitty since i lost my speed boost on lucha bird, the bulk didn't come to me though. but ya thinking it over you seemed bulky so idk if you had speed ivs. hindsight 20/20

>>26441687
Good game, Remu!
I was afraid that Jolteon wouldn't outspeed your mega.
Bump.
Breloom and friends bring Rena to the brink of restarting with a 2-0 win. GGs, and I know you can beat me with that team, game 3 will be interesting.
and with that the fight gym closes.
I just want to make sure we don't forget to add my win against Remu to the scoreboard.
>>26442612
Thanks, whoever did it.It was 2-0 btw
Can I join?
>>26438855
Closed
>>26444408
oh, had I realized you were still open, I'd have challenged you. Sorry brah.
>>26444389
hahahahha is this the real swog? I'm sure the gym leader challenge can allow you to come back since there hasn't been that much going on lately
>>26444583
Hey Emilio. First time on /vp/ in nearly 2-3 years. I don't have much shit going on so I wanted to hop back into Pokemon.
>>26444664
kind of had the same feeling at the beginning of February with the 20th celebration stuff going on this year I got back into it and am also collecting all the codes and merch that's out
Any chance of a collab between this and /wfg/?
>>26446825
Why not?
Looking for Anthony, Mige, Hana and Daniel.
>>26446777
why does this get asked
>>26446777
No, but we are currently looking for a collab with pornhub though, if you could hook us up that would be sweet.
Also for anyone who cares, i'm back from my trip and will resume regular scheduled gym duties tomorrow, in the meantime druides can still take you for battles, should you require them.
>>26444790
Doubt I'm gonna go for events or anything, just wanna battle. Though all I have right now are pokemon that are nearly a year old on my ruby. So I just picked a couple randoms out of that lot.
>>26449958
Don't save my name 4chang very nice.
>>26449958
Sign up and get to it the gym leaders this season have really good mons that have already knocked me out through 3 attempts but this 4th one looks like a keeper. Good luck and hahahah it's nice to see an old challenger back
>>26450365
I did sign up but my name is not be did a on the sheet.
Bumping.
Anyone on?
.
>>26450467
It's probably because no one with the power to update it has been on unfortunately
>>26453434
I see.
How active are the gym leaders? I think I could challenge.
>>26456611
They're active enough, and you can always email them to arrange a match if you can't seem to find them
I'll be retaking the challenge after this weekend's Johto Classic. A couple of Pokemon in my team for that are also needed for the new gym team I'm assembling.
Fighting Gym is Open. I don't expect much traffic until later tonight, but oh well.
Still looking for Daniel,Mige,Hana and Anthony.
>>26460286
wew bby hiiiiii gym will open in 5 hours :D
