JUSTIN vs OWEN - Pokémon VG Seniors Finals | NAIC 2023

[@slush2640]

Dude didn’t even show sportsmanship and shook his hand. He just sat there lookin pitiful. Way to go Owen!

[@timdelaat7948]

Dear lord, can we all agree to no longer record a match from justin's perspective? The frantic flicking back and forth between the move and the target screens is really annoying

[@Luanmm]

Please!

[@piplup10203854]

Yes please, geezus. It must be a nervous tick or something but it's incredibly difficult to focus or watch the game because of it.

[@alexbiersner3350]

Went to check the comments to see if someone beat me to the suggestion lol

Timmyyyyyyyy

[@giancarloabiera]

Not till we get a spectator mode like in Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Korea

[@maxspecs]

Amazing pivoting and adaptation on the winner's part, a great performance.

[@JmastersJ]

Owen seems like a smart person. Really liked the way he answered yhe questions in the interview. Collected, thoughtful and did not rush anything! GGs

[@Luanmm]

Congratulations on both ends, great set for a finals!

[@MidasCooks]

Blud is insane 💀

[@georgesantiago1101]

[@bellaisgod]

Good job owen you created the ultimate bond with your team and it radiates! You are a true pokemon master!

[@Vivelajen]

Justin driving me crazy 😑 hate that

[@RobotnikIsSexy]

Gyarados looking cool as ever

[@codytheclown5078]

He definitely should had used stomping tantrum on gholdengo after it protected instead of using ruination on gyarados

[@marshallburke7834]

Wish I was in the USA to enter the tournament it sucks in Jamaica

[@thejimcricket]

Justin has been in the Pokemon scene for YEARS, the most decorated Junior player to ever play the game. These disrespectful comments about him are disgusting, the dude is a saint. We should all be promoting him playing the game we love and overcoming adversity with consistent top cut results.

Gj ! 🎉🎉🎉

[@morgandillard4033]

Hi not new to Pokémon but im new to these tournaments. Why do they only have double battles? Why can’t I find any single battle tournaments?

[@maxspecs]

4v4 doubles is the official format of VGC. There's also a bunch of additional rules, the biggest one being that both players can see all 6 of an opponent's pokemon before battles begin, including items and tera types. It's up to them to pick the 4 best of their 6 to match up vs their opponents. Single battles in VGC stopped being a thing in Gen 4, too many battles would go to timer in the singles format, so to keep matches short and tactical, 4v4 doubles was adapted to be the official format. Battle strategies can be completely different from singles, with a lot more normally weak pokemon getting a chance to shine.

[@morgandillard4033]

@@maxspecs that makes sense thank you mate!!

[@marioramirez6068]

Also it's easy to cheese in singles. If you have a set up mon behind screens it's easy to click dragon dance or quiver dance and watch a single mom wreck your team. That being said I still prefer singles, only time I liked doubles was Gen 7 sun and moon. Snorlax under Trick room was great. Gen 8 and it's Giant mons were too OP for Snorlax

The way he just ignored the Roaring Moon the entire last set 😂😂😂

Mario Party 11 plz

[@Psytastic_ssbu]

What-

[@Marshmeadow_]

Hey I have a question, can I add similarities to the evolution and pokemon alone even though I didn't mean to actually copy the original Pokemon, I have this is idea of making something called Fayimon, it's basically ai do some of the ideas and making the rest, but the water starter has similarities to, Sprigatito (I think I spelled it right) and also I want the pokemon to evolve with the similarities of Sprigatito, so is it ok if I do that?

[@Dero_Sime]

Tbf they aren't gonna answer ur comment

😴

[@justinmartinez2345]

Justin lost to the finals and i remember he lost against a 7 years old girl

[@jesbinj]

dude had a mask on for his official photo lmao

[@jesseshaver2262]

Hope he doesn’t “misgender” someone who belongs in an insane asylum

[@Magdalena8008s]

What's wrong with you? Nobody's talking about gender here. But here you are bringing it up. Doesn't suprise me at all to be fair. It's always people like you making a thing about of nothing.

[@Soooooooooooonicable]

.💀I still think about that poor kid. The way they were treated was TOTALLY uncalled for! I hope that TO was removed.

[@vithormoraes]

Context, please?

[@jimmygudiel3007]

Following for context

[@Soooooooooooonicable]

@@jimmygudiel3007 So essentially, a trans TO asked a kid who was participating in a tournament what his pronouns were before escorting him to the stage. The kid was really nervous and sort of laughed awkwardly and said 'no'. The TO thought the kid was making fun of the whole idea of pronouns and ended up getting the kid disqualified from the whole tournament because their feelings were hurt. The kid was in tears and begged them to let him stay in the tournament, but they refused. The kid ended up posted about the incident on twitter and the TO ended up setting their twitter to private. I'm not sure if the TO was ever actually disciplined afterwards. A lot of people think they should be banned for what they did.

[@derrekbraveheart3268]

This is an awkward interview at the end.
