I feel like we forgot how much Life Orb + Sheer Force boosts damage, because it's been so long. Everyone I know is always like, "Oooh, that did more than I expected."

Has been cool seeing this early meta develop and also the early anti meta picks like Gallade.

If you ever played rock paper scissors with hitmonchan, that’s reg F currently summed up. Let’s hope creativeness and other ideas work and change the meta a bit

@@demongustavditters7150he means it’s predicatable because hitmonchan is always doing ‘rock’. That’s what I’m assuming anyways. Because the meta is pretty much very centralised. But it’ll always be centralised. It’s up to you to make different teams as a player.

There's always someone complaining about the early meta... We only have at our backs one tournament, and as always happens the first steps are about very aggresive teams. So, you're just complaining because you don't have experience or you are just seeking for some attention with likes.

Gouging is a weird word. Gouge is rarely used as is, let alone gouging, let alone using it to describe fire.

I keep calling it Raging Fire because of Raging Bolt. I do kind of miss the regular Pokémon names.

Gouging Fire wasn't really your fault. All instances of it that day were in Japanese. You were just going off memory.

With all due respect, there was a pretty high number of indeedee teams in Portland. If this team was that easy to beat, they wouldn’t have won the regional. What actually makes this team so good is the deceptively high defensive synergy. I’ve crushed numerous psyspam and farigiraf teams with this very squad, so I think it really comes down to who plays better. I really think H-Arcanine is the real answer to this team, for what it’s worth.
