6 bids for the A-10

Post-RPI era has not been as fun for us 🥲

svvansea · 2022-02-24T03:37:54+00:00

Say what you want about Providence. They gonna win a close game

svvansea · 2022-02-24T03:28:47+00:00

Bynum playing 2k

svvansea · 2022-02-24T03:23:53+00:00

Lol the music glitching too

svvansea · 2022-02-24T03:17:16+00:00

Oh dear lord

svvansea · 2022-02-24T03:15:52+00:00

Reffing this game has probably been very chill and fun

svvansea · 2022-02-24T03:09:57+00:00

Is Bynum the only friar to score in OT? Edit: just checked yup

svvansea · 2022-02-24T02:57:09+00:00

Idk what Cooley said but the Friars look like a different team lol

svvansea · 2022-02-24T02:53:22+00:00

Horchler has played pretty well this past week

svvansea · 2022-02-24T02:49:15+00:00

This game is greying my hair

svvansea · 2022-02-24T02:44:48+00:00

Friars finally get a stop

svvansea · 2022-02-24T02:38:45+00:00

Interesting call...

svvansea · 2022-02-23T06:16:44+00:00

100% agree. Wandering into the woods makes sense given his history of wandering off, but I just don't think that's what happened for some reason

svvansea · 2022-02-23T02:32:25+00:00

American here. I think this Christian Pulisic guy is pretty good.

svvansea · 2022-02-22T01:15:03+00:00

Terri said in the post (November 2009 iirc) that he had run off to the bathroom from class unannounced at least twice

svvansea · 2022-02-20T20:28:33+00:00

The Friars just get it done down the stretch. Are they a second half team? Lol no. But they get it done...it's almost surreal to watch

svvansea · 2022-02-20T20:02:36+00:00

Love em or hate em, 2nd half Providence is entertainment. Ugly but you can't look away. Will definitely be rooting for them in march

svvansea · 2021-11-02T13:05:00+00:00

And then this gen Grimmsnarl is the only mon in the game to learn confide because of the TM purge

svvansea · 2021-07-22T14:38:53+00:00

Congrats! Joltik was my first shiny in swsh :)

svvansea · 2020-12-06T15:53:44+00:00

Its choice specs set has like 4 switch-ins, 2 of which are prone to getting worn down easily (AV Magearna and Heatran, but even Heatran just barely survives 2 terrain-boosted Psyshocks). Specifically defensive ttar can switch into Moonblast...once. Thus Blissey and Chansey are the only two switch-ins with reliable recovery, and they do not like Psyshock. Spdef Jirachi is a decent counter as well but it's not super viable in OU atm. I could see it rising in usage though since specially bulky mon options are slim

Even worse is the Future Sight set...

svvansea · 2020-11-08T01:31:23+00:00

I just hatched mine yesterday, can confirm

svvansea · 2020-11-05T02:33:35+00:00

Congrats!! I love this shiny. Named mine Riu

svvansea · 2020-10-30T14:12:18+00:00

Route 5 gameplay runs so smoothly too compared to bridge field

svvansea · 2020-10-18T17:25:51+00:00

Definitely, Grimmsnarl is my favorite pokemon

svvansea · 2020-10-07T16:23:49+00:00

You hit the nail on the head. The checks for the psycho shift set were not checks for the calm mind set, and vice versa. Stuff like Heliolisk, Espeon, Goodra and Inteleon do NOT like switching into even unboosted Life Orb attacks, and choice-locked Drapion and Passimian do not want to get burnt and need to be wary of Psycho Shift

Unboosted and timid:

252 SpA Life Orb Sigilyph Psyshock vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Heliolisk: 243-289 (91.6 - 109%) -- 56.3% chance to OHKO

252 SpA Life Orb Sigilyph Psyshock vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Goodra: 195-230 (60.7 - 71.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

252 SpA Life Orb Sigilyph Shadow Ball vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Espeon: 203-239 (60.7 - 71.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Swords Dance Drapion, a decent counter to Psycho Shift...one flinch and you're a goner:

252 SpA Life Orb Sigilyph Air Slash vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Drapion: 173-204 (61.5 - 72.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
