Toshiro Ono made a good manga

My team (lvl 30 with one 31)
Stunky, Golem (31), Vespiquen, Blissey, and Bronzor
His team (same again)
Grottle, Luxray, Wormdam (bug/grass), Gastrodon, and Vespiquen (31)

Here is basically how it went down:
We start with the two Pokemon in front. my Stunky Toxics his Gastrodon, Gastrodon mud-bombs me (SUPER EFFECTIVE OH FUCK) I switch to Blissey and put that jerk to sleep. A bunch of stuff happens. His Luxray knows roar, which forces my current Pokemon out of battle and sends in a random one. That mucks stuff up a lot. One of his Pokemon faints first. Then I mess up and bring out my Vespiquen against his Luxay. He lightnings the shit out of it, oh fuck.
Eventually it is one v. four, my one Golem against TWO grass types (Golem is 4x weak to grass), the Vespiquen, and the Luxray. I use rollout, a move that locks me in for FIVE turns rolling into his Pokemon, getting stronger each turn.
If I get hit twice by the grass-types it is all over.
He Megadrains me, takes like half my health. I kill his Grottle with three Rollouts. The next two kill Vespiquen and Wormdam in one hit each, which leaves the Luxray. Strength finishes it off.
Fucking insane.
The best part? If I hadn't fucked up sending my Vespiquen against his lightning-type, I may have had two Pokemon left towards the end. If that were the case, as he mentioned, he could've used his Luxray to Roar my Golem away ending the strength-enhanced rollouts and leaving me proper screwed.

I cannot describe how entirely epic it was.

I'm playing Diamond for the PC right now. The emulation's about 90% speed for the most part.

I'm fighting for my second badge and have no fire attacks against this grass noob. His turtwig has spammed defense ups for 25 turns now...

Sounds pretty great. If Andrew gets it you two could pokefight.

rmcdougall: You'll only get half the experience playing on an emulator, believe me. As for the second badge, do you have a Starly or anything? Grass is weak to flying. And rock, but rock is weak to grass too.

dkaufman: Yeah, we could. Hey, YOU could get it too!

You should both get DS Lites so we can Wifi all the good games. Tetris, Mario Kart, etc. I've been wanting to co-op Secret of Mana for ages as well. Thats only two DS's on WLAN though, not Wifi. Get some DS Lites now!
