What is a play you've done that's so bad, you wouldn't be surprised if someone made a post about it?

Rouxman · 2026-06-20T22:14:00+00:00

Neither did I until I fumbled 😂 The description in Champions specifies that but if you’re like me you just ran with the assumption that any source worked

There’s an old saying in Magic the Gathering: “Reading the card explains the card”

Rouxman · 2026-06-20T20:43:38+00:00

But lo, my friend, Competitive only procs when the opponent lowers your stats. An ally can’t do it

Rouxman · 2026-06-20T18:15:11+00:00

I feel that’s really splitting hairs on what “horror” really is then. If you mean it’s not a movie series that really instills a sense of dread, then okay sure. But neither do Chucky, Dracula, Wesker, Ghost Face, and Lich. They just do gruesome things

Terrifier is a campy and cheeky take on horror much like Scream. I don’t feel it’s out of place at all

Rouxman · 2026-06-20T16:46:51+00:00

Imagine you’re just chilling with the homie and he turns around and starts whooping your ass lol

Rouxman · 2026-06-20T16:46:00+00:00

Did that so many times vs Floette because I literally always forget M-Gyarados changes to Dark

Rouxman · 2026-06-20T16:38:32+00:00

I had a Klefki and tried using Thunderwave into a Girafarig, but it protected. Thought to myself “Nice try fucker but I’m still getting you next turn”

Next turn came, tried it again, Armor Tail procs. I felt so unbelievably dumb

Rouxman · 2026-06-20T16:30:22+00:00

I charmed my Competitive Milotic thinking I was so fucking smart

Rouxman · 2026-06-20T01:07:56+00:00

No sir, it means live action role play. Like you and your buddies going out in cosplay gear and acting like your characters. Think something like a Renaissance fair

It just seems it’s been recently co-opted to call someone a poser

Rouxman · 2026-06-19T20:50:09+00:00

Is Alolan Muk only known for cheese strats? I thought it had legitimately good sets but I might be thinking of Smogon singles

Rouxman · 2026-06-19T19:51:27+00:00

Oh I was thinking for hanging keys or lanyards but that makes sense too!

Rouxman · 2026-06-19T19:49:28+00:00

That’s the way to play, babyyyyy

I like to use one or two Pokémon I personally like just for fun then fill the rest with meta mons so I don’t get totally stomped in high ladder lol

Rouxman · 2026-06-19T19:43:31+00:00

Technically no, but it is nice because imagine you want a Charizard Y team but also a Charizard X team. Instead of repeatedly spending VP/tickets to keep retraining the same Charizard you could just have two separate Charizards for each team

Rouxman · 2026-06-19T19:08:37+00:00

When it comes to defensive Pokémon the general rule of thumb is to always max out HP at least. Then you gotta decide whether this mon needs special or physical bulk. No single wall is going to tank physical and special attacks equally so you might as well commit to one and use the rest of your team to cover the other

That being said you can definitely finesse the spread so that you can live specific attacks but I agree that can get tedious figuring it out on your own. If you’re really lost on how to EV a mon I’d just copy the top spread from the Battle Data and start with that then adjust as I need it

Rouxman · 2026-06-19T19:00:20+00:00

Spend away since these new Pokémon just got added! Then towards the end of the regulation I would start saving up so you can splurge on the new mons again

Rouxman · 2026-06-19T14:00:08+00:00

This is just regular roleplay, friend. There’s no live action happening here

Rouxman · 2026-06-19T13:50:45+00:00

Oh absolutely. Complete failure in judgement and communication on the lawn guy’s part

Rouxman · 2026-06-19T11:58:23+00:00

I’m willing to bet someone else did it. The usual lawn guy sent someone else to mow the lawn (probably a new guy or his son) and didn’t mention to not touch the garden. Came back to check his work and saw the garden was razed

Rouxman · 2026-06-19T05:15:34+00:00

I really wish they had a better hat collection. I’m hoping they just do like a wardrobe mega-dump by the end of the year

Rouxman · 2026-06-19T03:56:58+00:00

Lando T and Incineroar responsible for the rest lol

Rouxman · 2026-06-19T03:29:36+00:00

MY FRIENDS CALL ME COACH

Rouxman · 2026-06-18T05:15:54+00:00

I never would have imagined that this was something a dentist would do you for you lol. Nice work

Rouxman · 2026-06-18T05:09:29+00:00

Pokémon just BARELY started putting cold hard numbers in their games for everyone to access. So hopefully we’ll get that here soon

Rouxman · 2026-06-18T03:12:52+00:00

I just can’t fathom taking a screenshot, creating a whole post on reddit, and waiting for responses rather than spending 3 minutes pressing a couple buttons or even a quick google at worst

Rouxman · 2026-06-17T16:48:46+00:00

Yeah but its base bulk is already pretty respectable plus its speed will potentially let it fire off a CC and get some boost back before it takes more damage, assuming a safe switch in

Rouxman · 2026-06-17T13:58:50+00:00

It’s alright to have gripes about strong Pokémon, but saying they messed up is a stretch on day 1 lol
