Hycrox Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 PokeNations 3 Week 4: BLASTS FROM THE PAST Ah, nothing like a trip down memory lane... You know how there were other generations of pokemon before this one? Crazy, right? Well, this time we're playing some of them! Gens 4, 5, and 6, to be exact! Battles just like the days of old. Of course, not everyone will play in the same format, and for each matchup, there's one new generation! Rules (read em): The rules here will just be the standard rules and bans of the tiers being played. Smogon clauses are applied as well. But, gotta mention some things regarding past generations (and one particular ban, shhhh): In Generations 4 and 5, weather set by an ability (Drizzle, Snow Warning, etc.) is permanent, unless it's changed to another kind of weather In Generations 4 and 5, Defog does not remove hazards or screens, so better stick to Rapid Spin In Generations 4 and 5 (i'm tired now), Grass-types aren't immune to spore and powder moves, and Electric-types can be paralyzed In Generation 4, there's no team preview: you won't know your opponent's team at the start of the battle. Like in Random Battles Remember some moves don't exist in certain generations. Like Scald only exists since Gen 5, Sticky Web is only from Gen 6, etc. Z-moves aren't a thing in any of these generations No matter what the reborn server's builder says, the Baton Pass clause still applies: can't baton pass speed + another stat, and can't have more than one baton pass mon on a team Again, evasion strats (Snow Cloak, Brightpowder, Sand Veil, etc) are banned For this challenge, Breloom and Dugtrio are banned in Gen 4 OU Again, questions in kermit colour. Now for the fun part: MATCHUPS: I. LIGHT GAZERS V/S ZION [Gen 4] OU Singles The rulers of the Earth against the bringers of heavenly light! II. ECLIPSE V/S POLARIS [Gen 5] UU Singles Will Polaris drown their foes, or will they get eclipsed? III. ZODIAC V/S SUN VALKYRIES [Gen 6] UU Singles Can the enlightened soldiers topple the treacherous and the occult? TO THE NATION LEADERS: Matches will be 5v5 weekly on the Reborn Showdown Server. Please submit your rosters of FIVE participants and TWO substitute candidates for this challenge within the next 42 hours to your committee representatives. REMINDER THE 4TH: Post your Replays of your Showdown matches in the Nations Discord server: https://discord.gg/MjcGDzf Replays have to follow this format: Week No. Player A vs Player B Win/Loss Replay Link Have fun! ~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickCrash Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 II. ECLIPSE v/s POLARIS Gen 5 UU Ody vs Personthing It's Ody. He'll hax Pt to 2-6 and then lose Lía vs Njab Lia doesn't play by the rules. She demanded Njab loses or she'll reveal about a video or something... Commander vs Cyanna Some people you just want to see win. Then there's Commander. Rock Eater vs Riku It's obvious, isn't it? They'll have to battle without Rocks for the following weeks. DeeEmZee vs BigJRA Eeeehhhhhhhhhhh. Maybe BigJRA will throw. Maybe Sail will throw harder. Let's see. SUBS: Kamina, Bibs / Blackpoi, DarkMaster 30% Bibs gets in and Kam drowns in a pool. If that's the case, then the 2-3 remains. III. SUN VALKYRIES v/s ZODIAC Gen 6 UU Bazaro vs DW DW doesn't lose. He allows you to beat him. Ghost vs Bagel Ghost has shown some potential. Bagel's still rusty. He'll manage enough to ultimately misplay to a 0-1 Infernape88 vs GoldenVeggie IP88 is always the answer. Even if he's lost to Bean of all people DemICE vs Sceptilespy Demice is Ice type, and thus they get an extra type this week. Zodiacs have to do a 0-10, so there's also that. Filthy vs HUEnd Filthy should have been with the other team, based on their types. soo.... SUBS: Epic C, Yinyang / Leonvermillion, DiamondTiara Call them only if absolutely necessary.

Hycrox Posted July 16, 2018 Author Share Posted July 16, 2018 I. LIGHT GAZERS v/s ZION Gen 4 OU Skitty vs Void I believe in Skitty Joker vs Sparky Is this loss? Azery vs Swampellow Battle of the bastards Alex vs Smeargletail Alex op LordofCold vs boomdiada The real ace in the hole is here SUBS: Jman, Roswell / Wendel, Trevore III. SUN VALKYRIES v/s ZODIAC Gen 6 UU Bazaro vs DW Sorry DW, but this is az Ghost vs Bagel The Valks' trump card takes this, ez Infernape88 vs GoldenVeggie No contest DemICE vs Sceptilespy They're both great Filthy vs HUEnd Ma boi HUEnd SUBS: Epic C, Yinyang / Leonvermillion, DiamondTiara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veterans Azeria Posted July 16, 2018 Veterans Share Posted July 16, 2018 II. ECLIPSE v/s POLARIS Gen 5 UU Ody vs Personthing - Could go either way. In Personthing's favour IMO Lía vs Njab - Lia sucks. Commander vs Cyanna - ehhhh. cyanna bc experience Rock Eater Zahkieh vs Riku - zahk got dis DeeEmZee vs BigJRA - dmz coming thru SUBS: Kamina, Bibs / Blackpoi, DarkMaster III. SUN VALKYRIES v/s ZODIAC Gen 6 UU Bazaro vs DW - p even. I'll put my money on Baz due to matchup though. Ghost vs Bagel - bagel's kinda rusty + matchup in valks favour Infernape88 vs GoldenVeggie - it's over from before team preview DemICE vs Sceptilespy - p even. Filthy vs HUEnd - our boi huend.

Monochrome_Complex Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 I see week 5 is already put up yet week 4 results aren't even up yet? I think you guys should start posting the results/standings of the previous week on the new week thread, or at least update this one before posting the new one . This isn't the first time it's happened either <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
