October ’14 Tournament
Some of you remember that we previously teased that we would be bringing additional smaller tournaments to the site, today we’re pleased to partially announce the next tournament! Expect full details in the coming days, with sign-ups opening very soon.
This tournament comes from the mind of DefensiveBastiodon (with a little direction from me that I wanted themed tournaments ;)). This tournament (as of yet unnamed) will feature seven types only: Ghost, Dark, Psychic, Bug, Fairy, Dragon and Poison. All battles will be in the VGC Double 4v4 style.
As we said, we’ll bring more details very soon so potential participants can sign up and have a month to construct their teams. Stay tuned!

The October Tournament is 4v4 doubles? Well then the best possible name for it is 2Spooky4You. (Not taking credit if someone said this earlier)

WOW! Someone’s been busy!
Haha sick today and bored. Did this instead of looking up an AltHist of the Berlin Wall never falling.
Relic Song is awesome
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxLWIhyECRg
What??? This is so good.
WHOA WHAT. DRAGON TYPE IS IN THE TOURNAMENT YO.
it is? 😀 YAY I CAN USE NOIVERN!
I could’ve done this….
But you’re not me, so no you couldn’t have.
We’ll see.
Really?
Aw I was dragon type was cut
QUESTION
Is this All VGC rules?
Or is the same such as 4v4?
All. It’ll be explained later.
:I
I NEED IT NOW!
Patience is a virtue.
Boooooooooooop boooooooooooop
Any arguments yet today?
Don’t even bring it up. worst mod evr
Shhhhhhhhhh It’s a warning.
Fire him plz. He leaked yer nuedz
he did!? dang I cant find em anywhere
XD
Nah. I tried to get some but he refused. 😉
Moving the stupid chatango thing restricted me because my computer was lagging :/
not that i know of, nope
Yeah me and shiny Noivern met in real life and we had a fistfight and smashed several buildings in the process. It is on CNN at 6 under the title (Sneaslestruction on 38th Street)
sounds familiar..
(im talking about man of steel)
Okay. Thanks. I’ll use it as evidence to ban you too. 😉
carbink should totally be the face of the october tournament
can, pumpkaboo!
its a freaking pumpkin! if that doesnt get anyone in the halloween spirit idk what will
What made You guys put Dragon in the Tourney anyway?
I’m a wizard. That’s why.
But Basti is leading!
I will ask Basti!
Basti is Dragon Cut from the Tourney???
I have some questions about the finals being on youtube.
PM me?
dragons are cool.
Dragons are often a representation of Hell and so I thought it fit with Halloween. Plus Moving left it out of the article.
Ohhh
So thats the theme of the types!
Ug Fine!
Because there’s always gotta be something that’s overpowered.
But Fairy is in this Tourney…
No. I picked these types after two months of research. I added dragon as a last minute change. It’s actually one of the least powerful typings.
Has anyone seen the trailer for the second episode of the Mega Evolution arc? Mega Sceptile will debut!!
Yeah mega sceptile is da bomb
Until Ice Shard hits.
then its a cold bomb
Unless he survives like my Gengar.
Omfg I was raging at that so hard.
who knows how long it will take for an english dub 🙁
There’s always plenty of subs around though
yeah but i dont like reading when i’m watching a show or a movie
So I came upon this “balanced hackedmons” tier on showdown and its hilariously fun. Faced a guy with a Flash Fire Ferrothorn that knew King’s Shield, and he had an impostor Blissey. I love this tier lol
I’ve been using Refrigerate Lapras with Extremespeed/Dragon Dance and its like… the god of all pokemon
Pixelate Extremespeed Togekiss is really fun to use lol. Got in a few sweeps after a Swords Dance
Wow imagine if Togekiss would really get Pixilate. Dat Hyper Beam
nasty plot hyper beam gg
There is some crazy shit in there. You can use megas as base forms with held items….
yep lol. I’ve been using Mega Charizard Y with Gale Wings ability, holding Choice Specs. Priority STAB Aeroblasts wreck rotlmfao
I thought you didn’t Use Showdown
I didn’t. I’ve made it known that I’ve been using it for about 2 weeks now.
If there’s a wonderguard Milotic, I’m gonna start playing that tier.
Lol Silly Chico
THERE IS ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING!
You have to some up with some crazy shit.
I once had a battle in that tier with normal pokemon….got completely wrecked.
yep! You can give any ability to any pokemon lol. And any move. I got sweeped by a Mega Blaziken that knew V-Create =(
Heavy everything is fixed now no need to talk to certain someone anymore
ahhh very nice to hear
but Altarias don’t have ears
I gave Aerilate to Rayquaza for that STAB extremespeed ^_^ bout to test him out
YES.
YESSSSS
I just let dude set up Geomancy with his Mega Alakazam =( iff he sweeps im gonna be pissed
out speed with extreme speed >:D
ROTLMFAO he knows Fiery Dance and grabbed another sp atk boost, im crying laughing. My lapras just took him out though
What item is your rayquaza holding? 😮
it was holding Yache berry for ice moves but im building a new team right now lol
wait how did you give rayquaza aerialate?
nvm i just found that post explaining how
Mega altaria with extreme speed would be terror.
I feel like it will be more defensive then physical.
mega altaria has major offensive boosts
Boosted attack and special attack with access to D-Dance? It’s going to be the most terrifying thing online.
Physical:
Dragon Dance
Return / Double-Edge (both now fairy due to pixelate)
Dragon Rush
Earthquake / Steel Wing (for other fairies)
Special:
Hyper Voice (now fairy)
Fireblast/Flamethrower
Dragonpulse/Draco Meteor
filler move.
It won’t be
I think it will be even all around
MegaAltaria
DragonFairy
Pixialte
HP:75
Atk:100 (+30)
Def:100 (+10)
SpA:100 (+30)
SpD:115 (+10)
Spe:100 (+20)
Oops I didn’t mean to press enter all those times 😛
Banned for abuse of Enter.
Cant
Catch
Me!
Okay Devious Dustox.
These stats are perfect
I will be disappointed if these are the stats
So…
I just finished Soul Eater…
And I’m still bawling….
I think I’m having a Soul Eater depression ugh oh well….
Here’s an AMV I made that might make you feel better https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeU6sHu9nVg
Ohmygod
Sorry that its not on the topic of pokemon, but the hype is killing me.
—————————————————————————————
Do you guys think we will get a character reveal this week?
If so, do you think a veteran or a newcomer?
I think we will get a newcomer this week, on friday or thursday.
I mean, Sakurai has nothing to lose at this point. Everything will be spoiled onto the internet within a matter of days. Even if it is one of the leaked characters, I still think it’d be cool, because I like seeing official artwork and screenshots. The trailers are also cool. So just tell me what you think. I cant contain much more hype anymore.
I take it you’re talking about Smash?
I would say something but I’m not familiar with the games.
Oh, yeah. XD Probably should’ve clarified.
You should be ashamed.
Archie would be disappointed.
Why? I never had the consoles for the games until Wii. By then I never even got to play my Wii….
Mega Altaria might be OU-BL
Its typing and Ability is very good
I think it will be OU. It’s typing is amazing. It’s really bulky, has recovery and can still hit hard
Yea that is Highly Likely
I think it will be too
It’s not longer weak to rocks. Also it’s not set up bait, and doesn’t care about substitute thanks to Hyper voice.
And has a wonderful design.
#Straight2Ubers
#DesignGameTooStrong
Then theres Mega Sableye…
Kinda disappointed
It needed prankster to be good still
I wonder how it will be
AKA death.
but magic bounce is SOOOOOO useful if played right
Mmmmm idc what mega sceptile’s tier is. Il still wreck with it XD
inb4 someone says ice shard
meh….Scarf Greninja Ice Beam
New meta
I’ve seen more than one person use it to counter t-land in doubles lol. Such silly things.
I was about to. I forsee it being NU
nu can’t be true cause i use it 😛
Ice Beaaaaaammmmmmm
Outtttt speeddddddd
Ice Sharddddd
Which one is it guna b?
My Mamoswine sweeps with Ice Shard. We’ll see.
if it somehow survives an ice shard ima go crazy and then leaf storm the place
inb4 i dont mega evolve sceptile and use overgrow giga drain BAM
If u wanna be that way, if one move can alter a pokemon’s placement.
Mega lopunny should be NU.
BecauSE FAIRY TYP E PSYCHIC TYYPE MUUNBLAYST.
I really hope it gets a priority grass type move so I can shove it in everyone’s faces.
UU in singles. OU in VGC format.
I agree
it’s going to be a beastly partner for Gyarados in VGC
Idk what tier
It really depends on stats If not done correctly It will be down to RU
there is no such thing as “correct” stats
Gamefrek has logic as to why each mega has those stats
You know what I mean <.<
lol of course i do XD
no they really don’t.
Give me one reason Gardevoir should get a +20 to Attack. Any sane person will tell you that should have gone to defence.
to balance it from making it more op
And Why did they give +20 Atk to Char Y if they were gonna make a Physical one anyway??
I AINT GAMEFREAK email them if you wanted to geez
Some people like to run fire punch charizard.
Surely you would just run Flare Blitz though.
yep mixed is a thing guys 😛
This from the people who made Parental Bond an ability. Game freak care little about balance.
So far ORAS has the best Mega designs IMO.
It’s true, they’ve been getting way better.
well, mega slowbro is “creative” i guess
and powerful
Agreed. Have you seen mega Milo? Uhmazinggggg
you mean air?
Excuse me sir, no need to be rude.
It aint rude if its true 😛
You know I’m messing around chico
I know, lmao
Have you seen mega Whiscash? 2 beautiful
Not as amazing as that mega walrien
Cool, but doesn’t beat mega Sharpedo.
not as cool as my mega reuniclus
Meh. That’d be terrifying honestly.
yep it wrecks hard as it already is :3 i love that little squishy thing XD
No I haven’t.
Why?
Because it doesn’t exxxxiiissst.
Neither does soul eater’s good ending.
Ouch…that burn though
I’ve learned to ignore your bs comments 😉
Does “bs” stand “best saying”
Sure.
Yet another who doesn’t have Pokéjungle Gold membership.
Tisk tisk. These guys need to pay up and upgrade.
Because you people don’t like me.
I never did anything to you 🙁
Yep. Just look at my avatar
Look at mine. It’s adorable, no?
Sexy as fuck. I should know….I have a beard
I didn’t know this. Show me your face now. NOW.
The internet cannot handle my face
Mine either but it’s on here anyway.
I agree
I totally agree with you. It just makes it feel like with X & Y they were just testing the new engine lol.
I see X/Y as the trial run.
Yep. Explains why XY wasnt that great.
If X and Y had Bad graphics
The game would be Just terrible
That’s the only reason I liked it.
definitely!
So far. They ‘forgot’ to reveal the bad ones.
In other words, they don’t want to piss off the entire community.
… So Mega Milotic will be a disappointment?
plot twist
Yes.
You talk a lot of smack for someone who can’t even move.
But I wasn’t talking smack
Also I CAN move
you can’t move, you roll
I can move
Don’t tell me what I can and Cant do!
I feel like it might be because we all know Mega designs will look like something Completely different than what what everyone thought
I hope in the BF we get to use our Megas and the Frontier Brains have megas
If the battle mason allowed us to mega evolve then yes its possible
except maybe in the battle factory cause thats all luck
Nope even in Battle Factory You just have to get lucky
hence i said thats all luck
Speaking of mason, in the end of the new japanese trailer why did they show salamence and shiny mega metagross fighting in the chateau or mason etc place 0-0
Where was that battle taking place :/
You’ll see it in due time… 😀
Yep 😀
Maybe it means Battle Maison replaces battle tower ( Which will be high disappointing) but I can see it because they probably want you to be able to connect from X and Y and ORAS
I’m scared the Battle Frontier will be too easy.
Do you guys remember Brandon and his 3 regis….they were a pain to take down in the originals because of their sheer defences and lack of good fighting moves….seriously i can only think of Brick Break.
But now…Go Mega Lucario….Close Combat…herp derp…Sweep
inb4 he has primal groudon XD
And then noland will kick everyone’s ass as usual
and tucker with his sheer beauty
also in gen 3 nobody ev trained or iv trained :/
I did
when it first came out? yeah right
No a year ago.
And the battle frontier was still hard as sht
yeah i meant in the beginning but still
And of course cause we didn’t have the physical and special split then :/
yeah it’s gonna be way harder now lol
judging by the looks of bralwye and that grovel i doubt it but hope so
There have been buffs for trainers, too.
I didn’t IV breed. But I did start EV training eventually. That was how I managed to get all the Silver Symbols
Battle Pyramid though :S
Best facility ever. The rage moments were just too good.
I loved them all but o think the most rage was battle palace
Battle Palace. I used a Sub Punch Aggron to sweep spencer. Best moment of my Emerald Career
Force Palm is good.
Good for paralyzing.
Chico I tried giving Wonderguard to Milotic and I got hit with a message saying “thats an unbalanced hackmon” and it wouldn’t let me XD
It also prohibits the use of Huge Power Slaking LOL. So I gave it Tough Claws instead ^_^
You gave Milotic Tough Claws? WHAT?
No. I gave Slaking tough claws
Oh XD
Actually I think they don’t allow Wonder Guard anything 😛
Yeah I figured that. I wonder how many abilities are banned on slaking, cause tough claws works but huge power and pure power doesnt LOL
Yeh wonder guard is always banned on everything I think
Awwww. ;-; LOL Oh well. 😛
I’m gonna test out Serene Grace Milotic that knows Steam Eruption XD
😮 Omg, that’s so evil! 😀
I’m still very confused on why the mods don’t like me….
Oh well.
because you try to be a goth bitch from an anime with an ending that ruined the whole series
Ignoring
Ignoring
Say what? Where did I ever say I don’t like you?
You imply it
A lot
;(
I mess around with everyone. A lot.
Can’t even seem to remember you.
Wow.
Your compliments > life.
You told me in private that one day remember
Literally peeing.
Thanks for thinking of my post whilst you pee. Why are you peeing?
I had to go.
It’s not symmetrical when you hold it in.
It makes you look fat.
Because you’re not symmetrical, like Archie’s Gyarados. 😉
I hate trying to interpret what you say.
Why is that?
Everything you say has two sides.
The side that we read,
and the side that makes us think too much, the dirty one.
Ah, but whichever side you think about first may not be what I’m implying, so it may be YOU with the dirty mind.
I’m not so sure about that last part, bud.
MHM
Man Hair Monday?
That’s everyday.
Battle palace
The place where everything means shit and ics/evs can actually screw you over XD
