Proud to be repping that Bisharp (> Scizor)
Nice job with this.
Thanks!
btw mr. fookie has a swampert.
I will add this right away.
Excellent work done here! The usage numbers in this division weren’t really surprising, and there was some interesting usage too such as Sandslash and Machamp. Props to the players who successfully top cut with them!
thanks dEvOn!!
Thank you DeVon, this is really cool to have!
If you’re gonna do Top 16 for UK, I (Brandon Ikin) used Crobat/Heracross/Garchomp/Gastrodon/Cresselia/Thundurus-T.
Troy Williams used Ninetales/Exeggutor/Volcarona/Hitmontop/Garchomp/Gastrodon
Yeah, rain is strong in seniors. But oh well, I think at least 8 teams (those with Heatran and yours, of course) were using manual sun, so sun is no loser at all- Only one Abomasnow really surprises me, though.
At least their was a Ninetales in UK Top16^^
Nice work compiling all of this. Good to see that I’m not the only person using jolteon and volcarona on a rain team.
How about an honorable mention with my name and my team their… :3
EDIT: anyway cool to see some teams to
stealI mean to inspire new teams for later maybe…Not this again…
Only if you use the correct form of ‘there’
I feel special. :3
Y’know, copying Lajo is cool not only in Pokémon.
Yeah but Lajo is German not a native English speaker like Joej M
CTRL+F’d
oh wait…
Daaaamnnn Seniors are way better at scouting than Masters! I’ll get this up on the front page when I get home. Good work!
Eric R Did not have a ttar – instead a rotom-wash and a ferrothorn as his last pokemon
Okay I will edit this in.
BillaBro had an Abomasnow instead of Gastrodon in Bochum.
Braviary….also I don’t always steal teams.
