With all battles finished and over, I wanted to compile Pokémon used in PJT’14 and write an article about it. This isn’t the last article on PJT’14, though. We’ll have a few participants writing their own report on their teams and opponents!
Top 10 Pokémon used in PJT’14
[spoiler]
#1 Aegislash
Schrödinger’s sword and shield
50% Weakness Policy
25% Leftovers
12.25% Shell Bell
12.25% Metal Coat
To me, this comes as a surprise, but at the same time, not so much.I remember before the tourney started, a lot of people were talking about how everyone was going to use Mega Kanga or Mega Gengar, or some other pretty OP stuff. In that sense, The fact that Aegislash was the most used Pokémon took me by surprise.(although Aegislash is also in Ubers). With that being said, we all know how good Aegislash is. It’s versatile, while being very punishing to those who get caught up in mind games or make the wrong decision. Judging by the items, most went with the offensive type, trying to shave off some Pokémon, whether it be a wall or sweeper, in a reliable fashion.We do, though, see more defensive items handed to Aegislash, such as Leftovers. I assume that this type of Aegislash focuses more on switching into good match ups to wreak some havoc, and then switch out to come back out later.
#2 Charizard
Please don’t Rock Tomb
100% Charizardite X
5 out of 5 Charizards decided that Char X was the way to go. The winning team by Maple featured Char X as it’s main offensive Pokemon, and it’s worth mentioning that 4 out of the 5 people who used Charizard passed round 1 in the tournament, suggesting it’s greatness.Most of the Char X’s in the tourney sported a Dragon Dance set, with Earthquake as their 3rd attacking move aside from Outrage/Dragon Claw and Flare Blitz, presumably to take care of Heatran and deal some damage to Azumarill.
#2 Togekiss
All You Need Is Flinch
40% Kings Rock
20% Leftovers
20% Shell Bell
20% Bright Powder
Somewhat of an odd ball on this list, those who used it seemed to aim for an edge in luck whilst tanking favorable hits. Besides the obvious Kings Rock, we see that a lot of the items are helpful in providing an opportunity to take an extra hit, meaning more times to Air Slash. I’m surprised that Sitrus Berry was not used by anyone, as that provides another way of getting that extra air slash on your opponent.
#4 Greninja
Fickle Ninja
60% Expert Belt
20% Life Orb
20% Kings Rock
#4 Garchomp
Masuda is my dad
50% Garchompite
25% Choice Scarf
25% Life Orb
#4 Chansey
Knock it off
100% Eviolite
#4 Clefable
Wizard
50% Leftovers
25% Rocky Helmet
25% Mental Herb
#4 Gengar
I eat game balance for dinner
100% Gengarite
#4 Mamoswine
I’ve got ya covered
75% Focus Sash
25% Expert Belt
#4 Rotom
WOW
50% Chesto Berry
25% Choice Specs
25% Leftovers
#4 Scizor
It likes to dance.
50% Life Orb
25% Scizorite
25% Iron Plate
#4 Skarmory
You better not touch me
5o% Rocky Helmet
25% Sitrus Berry
25% Safety Goggles
#4 Venusaur
Chronic Talonflamitis
75% Venusaurite
25% Black sludge

13 Pokémon when it’s top 10!? What is this nonsense! I thought it was better to cover all the Pokémon that tied in usage rather than to leave it at strictly 10 Pokémon, just for curiosity sake. One random fact: Nidoking and Nidoqueen were both used once , on separate teams.
Here are the submitted battle videos:

That about wraps it up for PJT14 analysis! I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did, and I would like to thank everyone that participated! Stay tuned tomorrow for our last article on PJT’14 by HeavyMetalFairy!
wasn’t there a guy who got a Shiny Marshtomp?
maybe Shiny Mega Swampert isn’t purple
I heard it is…. just for u
I’d love it if shiny mega Pokémon are of colors we don’t expect.
Like Shiny Mega Gengar, from something bland to something awesome.
i wish Shiny Mega Swampert was either Brown or Dark Blue
ITS SO WHITPINK
ooooohhhh myy gooooshhh listening to the demo’s OST on youtube
ITS BEAUTIFUL!
NOSTALGIA ATTACK.
I thought i return to something a little more Govnahish *Old avi*
Are you gonna be in the Showdown tournament? If so, what tier do you request? We have open Ubers and UU. If you don’t want either, you can request another.
Nah im not in it XD
Okay!
NU? UU. Gives me a migraine
Hm?
It hurts her brain
Dont joke about Migraineis(if u are) i suffer them badly
I get bad migraines as well 🙁 mostly when I’m anger and stressed

I suffer them badly i cant leave the house if i get them… I stress out and get angry alot too…. I also get them in the change of seasons

So my brother, my dad, and I went to gamestop to get the serial code and pick up the Gengar Spirit Link Preview 2 Pack for the TCG.
Here’s what I pulled:
Flashfire: Nothing good
Furious Fists: Crap
Here’s what my brother pulled:
Flashfire: Charizard EX regular
Furious Fists: Lucario EX regular
Hey Siri, where is the best place to dispose of a dead body?
“Shut up and do it ur self”
YOU’RE BACK TO SHINY LICKITUNG SKFHJSDFKHAFSUIDKSJ
U changed ur name again
gopfdgjdfopgfjodgjdfogjdrogjdrogfdrgdrgzFROGS gfgdg
It’s for a reason.
I just realized it.
chop up the body and put them in packages and dump them in different trash cans of differing neighborhoods
I love EX cards
Don’t kill your brother over a piece of paper with a pokemon drawn on it
Wise words, O Fluffy One. XD
Guess we can confirm shiny rate is still high in ORAS as it was in XY.
Tyranitartube just found a shiny pelipper and has no balls to catch it with LOL
“OHMYGODSHINYPELLIPERPREDICTIONSWERERIGHTCOOKIEGIVE”
this makes the 4th documented shiny…
– japanese streamer with shiny swellow
– serebii’s friend with shiny absol

I’m tempted to tweet Tyranitar shady is better than you that is all…

Ahhh :3
Dont chase me scary milotic
Eh, I was mediocre anyways. XD You guys are way out of my league! I’m somwhere in the middle, and y’all be Sky Pillar high!
I realized abut 90% of my shinies are females XD
Am I the only one who doesn’t care about and doesn’t pay attention to gender at all in Pokemon games?
I do…. gotta think of nicknames
I attract females as well XD
No joke from Crystal Up to HGSS all my starters were Female
*Checks shiny Pokes*
Luvdisc – F
Mightyena – F
Gothitelle – F
Zoroark – F
Driftblim – F
Hot dang, I have all-female shinies! :O
Lunatone is an exception.
And I’m not including event shines.
Shiny Female Buddies! 😛
/)^3^( ~ <3
(• ε •)(•ω•)
lets get more females!!!!!
That sounded…
It was suppose to bbyy
Why do so many neutral natures exist ugh
Maybe you just gotta pick the right kind of neutral.
Neutral Natures are good on mixed sweepers. That’s about it.
Are NETURAL natures ever reccmonded on a Pokemon set?
No. But they can be good.
http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/0/0d/362Glalie-Mega.png
Why mega glalie is my favorite mega:
Freezing core (probably why it can turn normal moves into ice type for refrigerate)
beard made out of black ice (Awesome)
Spooky af
It’s ice has a prism like glow in its 3d model
Really kyute@111!!
Better than most of its cringe-worthy fanart
Unexpected
kyute-e!11
Hoenn
It looks like a disembodied albino nutcracker.
10/10.
Rood 10/10
Who’s Jennah, you baby carrot?
Jennah
Jenn+Govnah=Jennah
It’s their ship name.
or anaconah
*Anaconvah
I prefer S.S. Anne, personally.
I’m more of a S.S. Aqua kinda guy.
I feel like something like this would be better…
http://i.imgur.com/NbxqENK.png
US demo will have mega braviary, calling it now
This makes Glalie look MORE like a dark type
And the Child me used to think it was
Sorry this may hurt but I preferred Mega Walrein over Mega Glalie But Don’t get me wrong Mega Glalie is raw too
I thought it was ice/steel.and that’s a good thing, any additional typing so would make it suck more
It doesn’t suck…. it bites 😉
It crunches. It’s STAB-oh wait
Random thought: these Ebola jokes aren’t funny. People are actually dying from it…..
80+ fatality rate without treatment. And there’s no cure.
Zmapp has been used to cure Ebola, as well as blood transfusion
You want to hear a scarier fatality rate? Nigeria Fowleri, A.K.A. “Brain-Eating Amoeba”. 98% fatality.
Is it contagious?
Only by contact of bodily fluids with someone showing symptoms of Ebola (they can have it, but it won’t pass on unless they show symptoms)
ITs bad i know…. Stupid joke isnt funny
I wasn’t actually degrading anything you said 😛
Most people think its a super contagious virus that everyone’s gonna get and everyone’s going to die, but that’s a really bad misconception. The only reason why there’s a 9/10 mortality rate b/c of Ebola is because most of those deaths are in Africa where they don’t have proper sanitation measures and ways to treat it. Not a problem for us in well developed countries, like the US :3
thats why rarely nobody is getting it expect for a few…
I wasnt actually going to do it. I know its not funny i just saw a picture a of a shiny koffing with the name ebola
So
Sidney: Mega Absol (?) or mega Sharpedo (?)
Phoebe: Mega Sableye
Glacia: Mega Glalie
Drake: Mega Salamence
Steven: Mega Metagross
All of them got two pokemon that can mega expect Glacia
Glacia had two glalie kek
Truuuuu
Mega Walrein would be niiiice
Since she does have 2 Sealeos and a Walrein
Feeb’s got Banette. Banette is an X and Y mega.
Sidney: Mega Shiftry
Phoebe: Mega Dusknoir
Glacia: Mega Glalie
Drake: Mega Salamence (or kingdra)
Steven: Mega Metagross
(or kingdra)
no
=(
No mega Kingdra with mega launcher? =(
oh wait yes
Yes
I would say Gym Leaders should get megas.
They probably will after 3-4 rematches.
Aarune will probably have Mega Flygon, and Mega Salamence is too OP for elite 4
Ehhh
How about we keep normal salamence and make mega Altaria?
I agree. I would prefer he have Mega Kingdra with Mega Launcher.
Mega Altaria is for the contest girl, Mega Mence maybe for a frontier brain or something (if frontier returns)
AND. If this is true. Shiftry was shown battling megas in trailers. Wallace used to be the champion, so he shouldn’t be excluded. Milotic also shown battling megas. I like where this is going.
Yep! Milotic will probably be revealed next corocoro when they show off the rest of the megas or something…
and in the corocoro from 2-3 months ago it showed Shiftry as Sidney’s main and Dusknoir as Phoebe’s main so that rules out them having Mega Absol & Mega Banette respectively.
Although Phoebe could potentially have mega sableye lol
I knew I saw dusknoir somewhere but I didn’t know from where! xD I like this analysis. I FEEL it.
Shiftry was confirmed to be Sidney’s ace.
Dusknoir was confirmed to be Phoebe’s ace.
And?
Ace doesn’t have to mean it is it’s mega
Hey ook. I gotta drop out the tourney. I just realized that all my teams are on my computer with my sister 😐 and I don’t wanna make them again
Okay! It’s fine!
Im going to slap heavy if he dont be quite XD
Heavy’s a quite kinda guy
he taunting me in PMS
Tucker: Mega Swampert
Anabel: Mega Slowbro
Brandon: Mega Latios
Lucy: Mega Steelix
Spencer: Mega Beedrill
Greta: Mega Lopunny
Noland: Mega Pidgeot
Why is ludicolo not being shown lol only shiftry I LIKE LUDICOLO BETTER
As long as they give Ludicolo Quiver Dance it wouldn’t even need a mega.
Remember this
I never forget faces XD
Ludicolo is a Mexican Pineapple Maricachi band lead singer that also is a duck. What more can you ask for?
They will do Ludicolo then
GameFreak=Surprises
unless…
They predict us to predict ludicolo and they do shifty as a surprise
TrollFreak’s finest trick: to unexpect what was expected.
Inb4 Ludicolo is in Pokemon Z
LOL ultimate trolling, I can actually see that happening.
I have a strong gut feeling Mega Machamp will be saved for Z (which will probably be released around the time Pokken Fighters does)
Mega Machamp can definitely be used for marketing purposes. 😮 Makes sense.
die
Gym Leaders need Mega Pokemon in their rematches.
Roxanne: Mega Probopass
Brawly: Mega Hariyama
Wattson: Mega Manectric
Flannery: Mega Camerupt
Norman: Mega Slaking
Winonna: Mega Altaria
Tate and Liza: Mega Solrock and Lunatone
Wallace: Mega Milotic (Whiscash?)
I want Mega Hariyama
Wattson’s main is Magneton, so Mega Magnezone.
In Emerald it was Manectric
I know, but they showed on the official site that this time around it was Magneton.
in Emerald it was manectric end yourself
I said it first end yourself
Go look back at the official site end yourself
IF WALLACE HAD MEGA MILOTIC IN THE FIRST BATTLE THEN ADDED MEGA WHISCASH IN THE REMATCH… YUHIKFSJBDG
Its like, two weeks til Halloween but I dont care. i made a new avitar
im scared
The conversations we have on chat are ridiculous…
NL: Ass
Anon: Bass
NL: Sass
Ookaruss: Wass
NL: you’re not welcome in this conversation
NL: to this
NL: did rio lose
Ookaruss: okay nl
Mom: ok son
So I come back from pizza and there are about 9999999999 squillion new comments.
Squillion confimrmed a big number
Holy crap Dicie’s name just showed on chat
It isn’t me. Seriously.
I just woke up ;~;
Woa
its ok go back to sleep
NO STAY
No Sleep
I wish ;~;
I have SO much homework.
I’m too desperate
Ookice or Dicook OTP
Not that kind of desperate…
The only way I see Mega Slaking happening is if it keeps Truant. Or gets Super Truant.
It gets the supposed “Impractical” ability. Opponent can’t move consecutively. GG.
if that would be true, i think Truant will disappear with out state change.
THE MAGMA BATTLE MUSIC AND RUSTBORO REMIX IS OMFGGGGGGGGG
Aqua is better but Mom: ok son
Team Magma fo lyfe
It’s funny, I’m about to go sleep lol
Gotta talk to ya, but I will later
How can you love something that doesn’t exist yet?
ORAS demo. 🙂
How did you get your hands on that. If you have a japanese 3DS I wil…
I didn’t get my hands on it.
I’m watching gameplays on YouTube. 🙂
Welp, gotta go! See ya people tomorrow!
