For clarification, you must play in realistic mode. Also, if there is a tie, the better placement is given based on total score. And since it wasn't stated earlier, an MS tab must be open in the screenshot for your submission to count.

Parasite doesn't make much biological sense, does it?

And anything in Pokemon does?

Okay, now I'm even more confused about how the scoring works in this game, because I somehow managed to get 164710.

To be honest, I did get really lucky with a starting location of Greenland, which as mentioned is terrible at controlling disease outbreaks, and it didn't take too long to infect the entire world. Despite on and off attempts for years now, this was the first time I managed sub 100 days.

What is it with these games and getting badges that I had never managed to get before?

Shiidaji · Post Post #1809 (ISO) » Thu Apr 17, 2014 8:00 am

Available tonight and tomorrow night TBO.

gg, super fun battle.

To clarify on why i didn't submit last round, I assumed early on I wasn't competing because I'd just been in the arena, by the time I realized my mistake I was too busy to make headway x:

A: King's Shield lowers the opponent's attack by two stages when it is hit by a contact move, which Earthquake is not.
B: Generally, Mold Breaker is a much better ability than Rivalry on Haxorus, but that might actually just be because it ignores Rotom's Levitate, which is everywhere in OU.

Shiidaji · Post Post #1819 (ISO) » Sat Apr 19, 2014 12:42 pm

Mold Breaker sounds silly though.

CuddlyCaucasian · Post Post #1820 (ISO) » Sat Apr 19, 2014 12:53 pm

Thank you for playing TBO. <3 Final challenge shall start tomorrow, doing family stuff for the rest of the weekend.

KingdomAces · Post Post #1821 (ISO) » Sat Apr 19, 2014 12:58 pm

Tell that to any levitating steel or electric type after you kill it with an Earthquake that it's expecting to be immune to. Or if you outspeed Dragonite, that you ignore it's Mulitscale and kill. Or the fact that you can OHKO anything with Sturdy regardless of whether it's at full HP. And to bring up something that is an issue right now for some reason, you can Roar away a magic bounce Espeon, killing a BP chain.

Yeah, I admit that it's extremely situational, but those situations come up a lot more than you would expect them to in standard OU play. Which this isn't so I should probably shut up, but I apparently feel like arguing right now.

Shiidaji · Post Post #1822 (ISO) » Sat Apr 19, 2014 1:02 pm

No I mean the ability sounds silly. Rivalry's cuter and doesn't have that annoying text that pops up every time you run through a wild pokemon battle.

I also may have assumed that TBO would have kept the same genders from his last battle with D3f, eheh.

KingdomAces · Post Post #1823 (ISO) » Sat Apr 19, 2014 1:15 pm

Oh.

Well, the default option for genders on showdown is random every time they are used, so don't expect that to always work.
