AuthorReborn

Slice off his arms and then dangle him from his toes off a cliff with no way to get back up.

I really enjoy different flairs and tones and accents in people's voices as they add extra flavor to the standard dish of coversation. And just like an extra topping or sauce, it makes the overall whole different through its presence. Sometimes it enhances the dish and othertimes it takes away from it to the point where you can no longer taste anything else because all you sense is the topping. So generally, I adore accents, but it does annoy me when I can no longer understand what someone is saying as a result of them.

Author Reborn was a name I cooked up many years ago when after a long winter, my creative energies were rejuvinated and I rededicated myself towards reading and writing once more. The Reborn part of it is mostly just a happy coincidence given my current position.

I saw Red Chaos made a status post and had a new avy so I knew it was time to check this thread again haha

Try to use a mix if old favorites and new pokemon you don't normally use. I fell in love with Manectric on my first play through and you may end up in a similar relationship if you branch out. Also try to stay away from the more powerful starters as they'll end up becoming crutches.

I call this one "Emolga Calm Down." Enjoy. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/randombattle-265172838 Jumbo Shrimps http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/randombattle-265184697

He would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for you meddling ducks. Well I guess we have our first evolved mon reveal, guys.

The fact that you have Healing Wish on Lop while you have a designated Cleric in Sylveon really bothers me because you waste Lop's moveslot on healing when Sylveon can alreayd pass Wishes and Heal Bell for recovery. Instead, I'd suggest you put Ice Punch in Healing Wish's place as that will great assist with your Ground weakness. You also might try Power-Up Punch over HJK to have a potent set-up sweeper which is hard to stop with anything short of Talon or Mega Pinsir, both of which die to Diancie (assuming Talon doesn't have Natural Gift with the berry that lets it use a Ground type move).

Litleo shall always be awesome in Reborn and it would seem its being better for you than it is for most, so congrats!

So, two questions which are related to one another: Will the "Rankings" be updated at some point in the near future? While it is possible to get an approximation of the rankings through the Standings Document, it is always good to know the committee's views the competition, and, in extension, then Individual competitors. I know it's been said multiple times but is there an anointed time for the News Post to be updated? The question follows the same logic as above.

Week 8 Sapphire Division AuthorReborn vs. Trevo (6-0) http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/reborn-ou-30267 I wish I could say that this was a good game, but damn, Lady Luck really screwed Trevo over at every turn. I wish you luck in your matches to come.

I'm confused. Umbreon was introduced in Gen II. Anyway, my bid goes for Sunflora. Decent special stats but the remainder is absolute trash. Plus, you have to waste a stone just to obtain it. That's utterly ridiculous. If you want a Grass screener for some reason, use Meganium. Way better bulk, speed, and can potentially have something of an offensive presence so it isn't just being a passive walls. Don't tell me I should try to use it or something because ya know what, I speak of its pure failures as a pokemon from experience. I used Sunflora in my first fun of Reborn until I eventually obtained some common sense and swapped it out for Tangrowth, which is everything it was but better. To make matters worse, the best status move Sunflora learns is Grass Whistle. That's a 55% accuracy move, people. Ugh, I just really wish this was one sunflower that never bloomed into existence at all.

If your egg was in the Obsidia Slums, then yeah, it was Drowzee. I haven't personally used it but those who have had vouched for the solid bulk it provides, especially on Corey and the Tangrowths. Might as well hatch it and see where it takes you.

Banned for expecting us to accept a slime zombie thing.

They're pretty simple and they happen go be white. The color and brand don't matter as much as they have to be durable since I walk everywhere. Favorite cheese?

I can handle a few random NPCs later down the line, if you'd like. I've got too much free time anyway.

It was the end of the road for an unfortunate soul. But then again, what else is there to expect in the life of a highwayman? You rob for a bit, you hold down a road, and make just enough to scrape by on a meager existence until eventually either people just learn to go a different way or the locals hire a goon to knock you over the head with a fatal overdose of your own sick medicine. All these things entered Mark's mind as he trudged along with the paralyzed form of a Dustox strapped across his back, weighing him down into the dusty road towards a little place in the middle of a long road home. He'd of course been the goon hired to play "doctor" for the application of the medicine that this Dustox had a long way coming due to her hostile behavior in slicing off a town from the only road to the capital. Previous attempts to apprehend her had just left the locals poisoned and wounded as she drove them away with the frighting sight of a being who can sit by the road all day and do nothing but silently wait for its prey to spring the trap. Thinking of all this made Mark audibly sigh as he attempted to quicken his pace a little. If anyone had told him when he was younger and still living at home that he'd someday be on a lonely dust road heading the wrong direction to get to his destination just to be able to afford to eat, not to mention while carrying the hopes and aspirations of the common people to attempt to gain the ear of the senate, he would have ignored the messenger. "Well, I mean, I suppose I am making it out to be a little worse than it actually is," he mumbled to himself. "I would have had to take on this Dustox anyway. At least this way I get some supplies from doing so." His deal had been brokered on Dustox being taken "Dead or Alive" due to the vitality of the road to the town. Without it, they would eventually fall to starvation and those who didn't would leave to become bandits themselves. Squishing Dustox like the bug she was would have been the fast and easy solution and would have gotten him back on the road faster although at the cost of his general pacifism. But all factors considered, subduing Dustox and dragging her all the way back to those who she had tormented was more dangerous, didn't betray his values, and, above all else, paid more, which, with easy access to the ability to paralyze his foes, Mark would be an idiot to pass up on the added opportunity. Still, the road was a long one and the capital wasn't getting any closer when Mark was walking in the wrong direction. "I wish I had followed Mom's advice on honing my skills in being more agile," he grumbled to himself as he continued down the road with only an unconscious bandit, the sounds of a gentle wind, and his own footsteps as company.

I'll post in the IC soon, but just to clear something up, my character's name is Mark. Fabio was just the joke name because of Joey (aka PokeaimMD) always calls his mega Amphy Fabio.
