Just wondering, what does Berry Juice do?

Restores 20 hp when 50% or less. That's a lot for LC.

It's less powerful than Sitrus Berry was back in Advanced, but I guess there's no Item Clause is LC nowadays.

There's only like two banned items anyways. It's more difficult to ensure that you have llegal move combos for certain pokemon. I guess ill just try to catch you on irc rather than schedule, since my next week or so is gonna be pretty busy.

Ohmygod this battle is going to be so tough I better hope ridiculously to have any chance whatsoever of possibly pulling off a win-

....yeah. Good luck in the first round, everybody.

I've been so busy that I haven't even made my team yet but we'll get the battle done this weekend.

Won my battle against Reli.

I know people have been busy with midterms and stuff so I'm extending the deadline by a week, to 03/08/10 which gives us an extra weekend to battle.

I have my team ready Medioc but I'm going to bed now so just try to catch me on IRC when you can.

RRRRRRR lost 1-0. I should get honorable mention for trying something different.

Yeah, I was totally unprepared for your kind of team. I don't even know how I ended up winning that one. I was just watching my Pokemon die then my last one pulls it outta his ass, knocking out 3. MVP award for him.

IB is on vacation for 10 days so I'm going to extend the deadline.

Edit: Actually, you know what? I don't want to hold up the tournament for so long so I am just going to switch IB with XTS and give IB the bye instead. It is now ragingprimeape vs XTS.

Sorry XTS but I will give you a bye in the next tournament with less than 8 players.

Alright then. Looks like I'll have to dust off my old failure of a LC team and actually get prepared for the first round. I'll try to get in touch with Rage on the OI Chat and see if we can get the battle done over the weekend.

Yeah sorry about this. I hate degrading the integrity of the tournament like that but it seemed the sensible thing to do.

Just beat RP 3-0. Had me scared at the beginning, though....

I am fail at this...

Keep trying man, you will find a niche. Round 2 is up, deadline 3/20.

Beat XTS 3-0.

I kinda forgot about this but I will get in touch with IB to set up a time. We might be a couple days past the deadline in finishing it though. Sorry.

IB and I are still trying to get this done but we are both pretty busy. I'm hoping we can do it tomorrow.

We finally got our match done. It was really haxy from turn 1, where I scored a crit that OHKOed. I got another crit and IB had a couple too. Won 1-0. Same last Pokemon as round one, who took out 3 Pokemon. MVP much?

SR has been trying to get this done with me but tonight I didn't even wake up till just now (2am) so I think I'll probably have to try and catch him on the weekend when he has more free time.

Scarf Gligar destroyed me. D:

Well we battled today cause I managed to catch him on the IRC. I won, but I had so much hax at the beginning. My Meowth happened to win the speed tie twice in a row, hit with hypnosis, and then score a critical bite. And yeah Scarf Gligar blew through the rest of his team.
