I'll start fighting. I might not for a while though, as I just decided to make the "fuck it, time to go competitive to an acceptable level" leap. I've waited too long on the "POKEMON BECOMING-A-MAN MAN CEREMONY OF MANLINESS" and I'm currently working on IV-breeding a "DROWNING IN THE HEALTH" Breloom.

I need the breeding items, and some luck. I've never done EV calculating, IV calculating, or anything.

[neotemplar]

I do some battling now that I have my battle box set up.

Before people always challenged me when I had hatchy the flame body talonflame and 5 eggs out.

[umiman]

Haha wow, I got rocked by an acquaintance's Mega Medicham. I'd fought him a few times before but he'd always relied on legendaries so he always lost heartily. This time he didn't have a single legendary, rather he was using weirder stuff like Hippowdon. I thought I could set up with one of my tanks as I didn't think it could kill it in time before some swords dances came out. Little did I know Medicham's true power.

It went something like this:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

At the end of it we added each other as friends and I congratulated him. Was so great to see someone switch from boring legendaries to fun pokemon.

Project Live Forever Breloom is a go, i repeat, Project Breloom is a go.

I've got this so planned out, so planned out it hurts.

1. Breloom x Ditto until a suitable set emerges. By "suitable set" I mean ones that carry the ability through. Not sure HOW that works, really, because if it's still gender specific as to what passes down how I may be boned.

2. Shroomish x Various (Snover?) for any egg moves deemed worthy. Here's where IVs kinda come into play, I need at least three perfects. That's... unreasonable, right? How do people even get their "primary" 31 seed so that it can pass down FOREVER? Pure luck? Breloom SHOULD have some perfect IVs though, as it's Friend Safari and "superior overall". Might destiny-knot Breloom x Egg Move Shroomishes here.

3. Post breeding ad nauseum, train resulting Breloom.

So, I know what IVs it needs. I know what moves it needs (speaking of which, if anyone's got tips/a tradeable pokemon with Drain Punch, or a Shroomish already with Giga Drain (removed from moveset, from Bulbapedia's ranting), I'll love you forever.
Not sure about the Giga Drain one, but it levels off that moveset deliciously, because leech seed isn't hardcore enough.

If you want to battle me with nontrained pokemon (EV training, errr, you're probably better than me since I haven't bothered, but I'll fight you) then post here or something, which brings me to POINT TROIS.

We should do a Bay12 Gym League.

Why? Because, it will be FUN. I say we choose this by Friend Safari Typeage, through Choosing Our Own Types, or Randomly Drawing For Type. Who cares if we have more than eight gym leaders, if people go for this idea. Yeah, we're also monotype, but that can be pretty fun. Even with Elec, I can still bring in subtypes, like Galvantula and Magnezone.

If we decide to do that, I say just go ahead and post what types you'd like to do, up to three, in order of "WANT".

For me, I'd take:
1. STEEL. I love steel, and I've got enough pokemon of the type.
2. FIRE. I've got the pokemon for it, lord I have so many fire types.
3. POISON. Poison is straight up fun to run with.

Gym Leader Rules:
You may only use as many pokemon as your opponent- if they choose to only use three, you are limited to three or less.
You may have ONE pokemon of a non-matching type as your Gym, however, this can't be too off-the-wall. A Grass gym could use a Bug/Poison if they really wanted to, but only a single kind. The pokemon in question MUST have an attacking move of the type of your gym- a Venomoth with Stun Spore and Sleeping Powder dosen't count. ((Neither does a Charizard with Solar Beam, that's absurd.))
You may use a Mega Evolution, and there aren't any restrictions on which one, though I'd suggest the last one (Gym leader motif.)
You may have any held items you want.

Ok so I got a bunch of 4IV Litwick/lampents if anyone needs one.

Also to whoever Ross is, dang that scarf got me!  I need to grind for one of those

Also yay 5/6 IV Litwick with modest nature is in the works.  Actually it might be good for a scarf given its heinous special attack base of 145!

[Urist Imiknorris]

What scarf? I don't have any choiced mons. Sigilyph's just fast, yo.

EDIT: Wow Umiman, your connection sucks. At least now I have a chance to reteach Aegislash Shadow Claw.

[neotemplar]

I meant rosearade unless that is way faster than I thought?

[Urist Imiknorris]

Base 90. That Roserade's saved my ass so many times.

What I didn't expect was it one-shotting your Gardevoir.

[Elephant Parade]

If we're doing friend safari types, I'd be fire, though I'd be the first gym, what with being Level ~20 and all.

[umiman]

Don't think it's my connection. I think the wifi card in my 3DS XL broke. Everything else is working fine, just the 3DS.

Edit: Hot damn, nice prediction on my switch in to Aegislash.

[Furtuka]

Hmmm. I actually wouldn't mind making a ghost gym once I got my old mons back. I'm still not entirely sure if my skills are good enough for it. But there's always time to learn. I've already been sketching ideas for all the badges today anyways.

[Urist Imiknorris]

Edit: Hot damn, nice prediction on my switch in to Aegislash.

I knew you wouldn't keep in Snorlax. I actually thought you were sending in Tyranitar and was praying for a burn.

[umiman]

I was deciding on whether to switch to Aegislash or Bill Murray but I thought since you'd use psyshock again, I'd go with the no damage on Aegislash. You sure showed me.

Good match! I didn't know what Roserade or Sigilyph were going to do (though I kinda assumed Sigilyph would have ice beam) so every time those guys showed up I just gambled that they couldn't kill me. Roserade killing Snorlax was a big surprise for me.

I bet you weren't expecting Azumarill to not only die to Tyranitar but get outspeeded by it of all things too.

Still, no Umi Badge for you this time.

[Urist Imiknorris]

To be perfectly fair, Roserade KOing Snorlax was a surprise for me too.

EDIT: Honestly, what were you expecting with that switch?

[umiman]

I was under the impression that protean Greninja changed type throughout the whole match. So when I switched I thought it'd come in as a grass-type. Sucks to be me haha.

You still lost though.

I'm still trying to get the rest of my ground/ steel team so I'm still not at a good strength yet I feel. I'm breeding the last remaining member so after this, my Garchomp, Greninja, and Snorlax should be replaced.

Edit: Not to mention you suicided your Mega Lucario to an obvious earthquake yourself.
