Today is the start of the Pokémon World Championships in Washington D.C., where the worlds best battlers will fight it out to determine the World Champions of the Junior, Senior, and Masters Divisions.
While we won’t provide full live coverage (just updates along the way!) we’re providing our readers with a stream to watch to keep up-to-date on the latest. Later today we’ll all have an overdue announcement relating to the final round of our Tournament, keep your eyes peeled!
All alone again….
I don’t understand why people get excited and anxious when they watch sports, however when I watch these streams, I become the same way. This is more exciting…
You get excited by me, though…
I do?
Y’sure do.
Don’t we all? 🙂
Everyone gets excited by me? Oh my.
Good morning! 🙂
Hello fairy rodent with very few good moves.
I know ;(
Dedenne and competitive battling are not friends.
But es so cute I can’t even <3
LOL. I have rocked Dedenne in competitive. Give it that thing Charge Beam…
Really? Wow.
I should try that.
So proud of my little rodent friend <3
Take good care of any Dedenne you see, all right? 😀
Only if they’re timid and IV bred B)
I’m surprised how excited I am. These matches r actually pretty good. lol
I know right. One match and you’re hooked.
They f’d up the game feed lol
This is so intense… It makes me feel like a total noob…
That Arash looked pissed lol
Anyone here? Lol.
Suddenly, everyone is here! Yay!
I’m done. XD Mega Slowbro Beybladez. (Refresh for the image.)
Hey Afarr!
I have a friend over today so I can’t work on X2 and Y2 as much as I’d like.
But I’ll make time maybe tomorrow 🙂
Alright! I’ll be ready by then! 😀
I hope that Dae wins.

No. Dae is gonna win. I believe in him. Hammer Arm ftw.

Battle me 😮
Do I “install” or “play online”?
Play online :3
Choose Name?
How do I make an account?
Yes. Go to choose name :3
Ok. I’m UberMawile. Now what? How do I make my account?
Click on the gear icon for settings and hit “Register” which is next to the “Log out” icon
Weird. I don’t have to save my settings. I think I’m all good.
Can we have a Random Battle please? I don’t have time to make a team.
Yes, that was the intention. Go to the chat room called “Lobby” If you can find it. Are you on a phone or PC?
If on a phone, it’s under “join chat” and “Lobby”. If on a PC, it’s on the front page.
I’m on a PC. Now what?
There’s that name list with all the usernames, if you ever need to find someone to challenge scroll through the list on the lobby if they’re online and on the lobby. I just sent you a challenge.
I’m looking through the list. Ok. I’ll accept
Battle me too plz :0
First Noivs then you.

Youre third. What’s mlg?
Major League Gaming! XD
Thanks!
RB as well.
Jk I can’t rn ;-;
Later today hopefully.
Soon. 🙂
The music is awesome! 😀
I dislike smogon with a passion, but random battles on Showdown are awesome.
Smogon is probably talking about banning Mega Slowbro right now after taking that Dragon Claw like a champ from a Mega Charizard X.
LOL. I said that in the last article. It’s an ugly duckling but its defense is beautiful.
100% agreed. People aren’t guaranteed OU Pokemon, They’re given random pokemon that they never really considered using.
*Aren’t
It gives you a chance to see how different mons work.
Saw all the battles in VGC this year. I have to say, I found last years’ better from a spectating standpoint. There was actually a lot more creative movesets/pokemon i.e. Sejun Park. There was nice decision making skills in this one, but I found every team rather uninspired :/
Literally all the teams I’ve seen are almost exactly the same.
Exactly :/
I’m going to try for nationals next year with my team of Pokemon people rarely see! 😀 talk of the town if I make it
Cool xD I wanna participate in the upcoming banned pokemon Special Battle season 6 xD
That’s a thing?
Yup check on serebii, the top 20 Overused pokemon are banned in this special tournament which composed 90% of the teams in VGC this year xD
Sejun is using pachirisu this year.
THOSE BABY SQURRIELS ARE AWESOME.
I saw that xD But I liked his Magmar from last year :p
The teams all look very similar and … (don’t hate me) bland. I just want someone to use NU or UU Pokemon or a full team of NU and UU Pokemon! Most UU and NU Pokemon are beasts!
Mega Slowbro, despite looking very silly design wise, it’s Defense looks to be amazing! Being able to take a hit from Mega Charizard X’s Dragon Claw without really a scratch. Plus it has Amnesia and that increased Special Attack on top of Amnesia boosts will make the unique moves it has such as Fire Blast hit quite hard.
My predicted/wanted stats for Mega Slowbro:
HP: 95 (+0)
Attack: 95 (+20)
Defense: 160 (+50)
Special Attack: 140 (+30)
Special Defense: 80 (+0)
Speed: 30 (+0)
EDIT: Added another +10 after being notified that I only had a 90 stat boost.
Only a 90 stat boost?
Oh, oops. I’m sorry. I forgot to add another +10. I edited the post now. Thank you for pointing that out!
No problem! 😀
I’d agree with this! It’s going to be one bulky Pokemon!
prepare for the dream ball aegisllash XD
Currently digging Air Slash Mantine.
Frig the Flinches. :
I thought Mammosweep was gonna happen o_o
XD
Refresh the page as I fixed my previous post and made Mega Slowbro get a 100 stat boost after being kindly notified by someone.
A Zapdos with Safety Googles! I’ve never seen that before!
These teams are quite unique compared to what I see on Youtube. Lol.
I’m such a noob. Sorry.
Goggles isn’t that uncommon in kalos doubles I heard.
Most of the sets are Smogon inspired rules on Youtube that I see.
So very little variety. It’s kinda meh. Lol.
@natulover:disqus I can battle you now. 🙂
Okay 😀 I’m in Lobby
Okay.
I challenged u
