    Are you a parent? If not, do you ever want to have children?

    Not at all, my sister had her first age 36 and met her now husband at 32

    Not to mention, it’s also got some great new teammates too. Farigiraf can block priority moves, Sinistcha can keep it healthy and redirect, Iron Bundle can handle the Dragons and provide speed control, Gouging Fire can debuff enemies and blast Grasses. Yeah Kyogre is not bad now. Don’t get me...

    Got bored so I made a Terapagos team. Terapagos I feel will be a strong anti meta Pokemon. In a meta dominated by weather and terrains, being able to turn all of them off could be a game changer. A lot of people are turned off by Terapagos, as it doesn't have the immediate power of other...

    Netflix’s One Piece is better than the original anime. It has better pacing, better fight choreography, and the villains feel way more threatening.

    Could a Sandstorm team work? Yeah Tyranitar hates Rilla and Urshi, but Watershifu's is on the decline and Torkoal and Pelipper seem quite rare - Torkoal requires Trick Room support and Pelipper doesn't have many good rain abusers outside Archaludon.

    Before Gen 4 it used to have 32 PP. Celebi is banned from GSC OU, not because of its power (base 100 attacking stats in a meta where everything has maxed out EVs doesn't dish out much damage, it also didn't have SD in GSC) but because it just doesn't die.

    Stall sucks. Why the fuck would I want to play a match where you bring 6 weak passive blobs and switch around and spam recovery moves for 100+ turns? And what’s the fun in even using a team like that? Losing to a stall team is as much fun as having your fillings changed with no pain killers. As...

    I think Terapagos could be a great option, and a strong anti meta pick in general. It’s immune to Astral barrage, in its base forme any hit is resisted at full HP, and in its Stellar forme it takes away all weather and terrains. Ting Lu could also work, resists both STABs and lowers its Special...

    A Pokemon I want to talk about. This thing has similar bulk to Giratina-A, while packing a Special Attack stat on par with Lunala. While it doesn't have the immediate power of Pokemon like Zacian, Kyogre and Calyrex-S, it has a few ways to patch this up (see below), and it makes up for that...

    The world is not getting worse. If you truly believe it is, imagine I’m a genie who can send you back to past era (90s is the latest.) 2 catches though - 1, you don’t get any memories of the world after that time, and 2: I chose who you are and where you live. 90s: you get to live in Kosovo...

    I’ll take a bronze medal, and yay one of my teams won! This was great fun, really enjoyed it (though I still hate Poison, why are there players willing to die on that hill?) looking forward to round 3.

    Could there be a niche for Enamorus-T in regulation F? Trick Room has seen some success lately, and in theory it pairs up nicely with Porygon2, Ursaluna (both formes) and Incineroar.

    Pale ale is nicer than larger. I’m getting sick of all video games going for dull colour palettes with photo realistic humans as the main characters. If thematically you’re going for grounded realism then OK, but for whacky stuff why would you go with such a boring look? See Jump Force - that...
