Life is unfair.
What am I supposed to do in this situation huh? I have no special attackers or even super effective moves against FUCKING GRASS!? My only hope was Sunflora with the nasty Sludge Bomb to his homosexual ass mantis, but of course he has Leech Life and gets a crit. Pokemon is fucking garbage.
What a fucking joke of a game. Fuck this player, and fuck Showdown.
Sunflora has Sludge Bomb?
Sunflora had Sludge Bomb
>Running Sunflora
lel
it's randbats, anon
Sunflora is one of the best pokemon in randbats. It hits like a truck
Skill issues
die
Letting some asshole online feel superior because he lucked out and got a better team than me? Fuck that, I deserve every victory and more.
I'm muted there for being too real.
>die
Get good
most mentally stable showdown player
Weak mental state
Imagine OP.
The stakes aren't that high here my guy
hey anon are you the one who dm'd me a rant because poltchageist walled you?
You lose. Pokemon, especially randbats is a game of luck. Sometimes you just lose. Overall elo/gxe is what really matters.
Rarely does luck actually matter in Pokemon, even in Randbats. If you lost, it’s more than likely that you didn’t play it safe and know the damage calcs.
Once in a few battles you’ll get haxed with shit like Flame Body or crits, and even less so when you get a team that literally can’t win. Both of them suck though, which is why people don’t like and want to play Pokemon with more skill involved.
With that said, Randbats shouldn’t allow set up Pokemon in the lead slot and should avoid giving Pokemon luck based abilities.
>b-but it’s randbats tho!
Randbats also has bans and changes. They banned AG Pokemon because even they can tell how unfair using them is.
tl;dr skill Issue.
>'Rarely does luck actually matter in Pokemon'
>turn 1 shell smash/geomancy sweeper that can't be ohko'd/ phazed appears
>turn 1 bulky hazard setter with no defog/ rapid spin/ tidy up user
>sticky web now lets your opponent to run free with bulky offense
>shedinja with no counters
>UB/ calyrex/ any other snowball pokemon appears and every one of yours gets 2HKO'd by it, which means you can't switch in and after a turn all of them get OHKO'd
>crits, misses, speed ties and so on
no doubt the best player wins most of the time, but luck is a huge factor in randbats
How often do those things actually happen? How often do you see Xerneas or Volcarona as a lead and your lead is like Shiftry? How often do you find something like Ting-Lu or Ferrothorn with both Spikes and Stealth Rock and you have 0 things to threaten them out or have 0 hazard control? And against sticky webs too? How often do you find Shedinja in past games where you don’t have multiple of Flying, Fire, Rock, Dark, or Ghost moves? How often do crits and misses ultimately matter and there was no way to avoid being in such scenarios or against Snowballing Pokemon? Also Calyrex-S is banned in Randbats.
People take RNG way too overboard and say shit like its the only determining factor of a game. Often times, the loser in Randbats is the person who doesn’t make the safer play and can’t mitigate bad luck as much.
>not having anything against grass types
skill issue
Regidrago special attacks?
Should have tera'ed the sunflora, which was presumably Poison.
Randbats would be 100x better if there was team preview and you could send out your lead. At least then, you have a fighting chance against bad match-ups.
>if there was team preview
>Removing the only chance for rusefox's gimmick to shine
Pass
nobody forced you to pick randbats
kill shaymin
kill shaymin
kill shaymin
But for real, I need help.
is shaymin in the room with us right now anon
i dont know
Sometimes you just get shat on in randbats, idiot. It's randbats.
If you have a single special attacker you may want to prioritize keeping it alive for the special attacking angle to not leave your repertoire.
Don't play a format entirely based on luck? Play something fun like Monotype, 1v1, or even older UU,OU, and Ubers formats (before gen 8).
Lurantischads!!!
For real, regulate your emotions lmao.
Don't play smogonshit.
>hiding names
you already know op is a low elo shitter
