IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

Maybe back when pokemon was terribly coded and a truly terrible game if you were to go back and play red / blue.

But gen 6 pokemon is pretty awesome.


Edit: Ok before I get my head ripped off I will concede that the lack of input lag in red / blue is awesome.

They massively improve the mechanics / game play with each generation and it has a surprising amount of depth from gen 3 onward so you aren't exactly running out of stuff to do. (admittedly the late game stuff in X and Y is kind of lacking but its always the same for the .0 of any generation)

It is never too late to abduct animals from their natural environments, breed them with other species to cause genetically mutated babies so you can kill the parents and give the child diseases while pumping them full of drugs to murder other pokemon.

If we're talking about games similar to Pokemon... Magi Nation. The battle system is a little slow and grindy, but the game is amazing. The dialogue is still kind of hilarious to me years later, and the music is some of the best on chiptune.

The GBC release, of course. Not the GBA release. They changed Tony's character to be unrecognizable. What was wrong with the dry, kinda cynical American teen, Japan? Why did he have to become a genki boy?

I only played competitive up until pokebank got released so I have no idea what the meta is like anymore.

That said I got pretty high on showdown using a team consisting of:

Xerneas, Malamar, M-Kangaskan, Blazekin, Klefki, Talonflame

I kind of lost the interest in playing when Pokebank got delayed so much. I should probably hop back on Showdown to see what people run nowadays. I mostly play OU though.

Interesting that you got Malamar to do work in ubers.

gz,those victories are the sweetest


The only 4v5 I won was where our mid silcncer hit 16 and then dropped. We won every teamfight with global silence from base, and we got extra passive gold. The enemy team must have been so pissed.

Malamar is reaaaaaaally scary when you baton pass speed boost onto him. It did help that everyone and their mother was obsessed with Aegislash at the time and Malamar counters him (plus Topsy Turvy on a Xerneas / Blazekin etc is hilarious)

Most Dota-related discussion should ideally be in other topics from now on.

If you are talking Dota in this thread, you are actually doing it wrong.
