I hate mob mentalities. They make things much less rational.
I hate it when I sit in my room. Surrounded by the things I know make me less sad, when all they do is make those I want to be in relationships with ultimately think that I'm not relationship material. It really fucking sucks.
There's no point being in a relationship with someone that doesn't let you like what you like. Someone will come along that will accept you for what you are. So don't feel down Zombie.
It's very easy to end up alone with that mindset.
Also the idea that "life would be easier if I was gay" is very popular in certain groups on the internet someone might label as "misogynistic". I don't want to sound judgemental but perhaps it's the reason some people go trans?
LOL wat yeah bro i want to have sex with dudes thats why im gonna chop my dick off alterkot pls stick to playing corki
Did you know "playing Corki" in Chinese is also slang for masturbating?
Chinese Internet culture is so obscure and their memes are sometimes so ridiculous I'm pretty sure you could make shit up and we'd still believe it or at least be unable to call bullshit without a doubt.
No he's right about this.

2. Talonflame - Sharp Beak. Adamant nature. Great Gale ability. Brave Bird/Flare Blitz/U-Turn/Roost Talonflame is mostly there to switch into a fighting type that Mega-Kangaskhan cannot handle.
3. Undecided at the moment. I used to run a very tanky and defensive Vaporeon with Toxic and Scald. But I realized having two Pokemon with weakness to Eletric is a bad idea and I have a lot of problems against fast Eletric Pokemon with Wild Charge/Thunder that can also outrun my Mega-Kangaskhan. I am currently considering: - Aegislash. It's a ghost type and can fairly easily switch into a fighting move. Aegislash has no recovery move though. - Clefable. Fairy type resists fighting which is a plus. Cosmic Power + Stored Power sounds decent on paper. - Garchomp (with the +speed choice). Check Electric types with ease. Not sure about the 4x weakness against Ice though. Also it's not that fast and might run into other issues.
I am not a big fan of PuP on M-Kang for Battle Maison. M-Kang's job is to come in and hit like a truck, not try and cheese stat boosts. I personally also dislike Talonflame in the Maison personally because your movepool is so shallow and you don't have the Gems from Gen V to cheese wins. I've personally felt that having coverage moves is just so much more important in the Maison cause this isn't online where you have a full team of 6.
Vaporeon is pretty underwhelming. If you want a bulky water type to play against AI hax then Suicune is still the King but your team isn't built around hax prevention in the first place. And if you're only going for 50 wins then you really shouldn't be worried about hax I feel like? The hax doesn't really ramp up until like 100+ wins.
Clefable is a stall Pokemon or bulky offense. Except again it doesn't go with HO stuff. So just as awkward as Vaporeon.
Here's the team I've used to get the Singles Trophy multiple times. It's a very straight forward HO team that doesn't take much thinking to use.
Kangaskhan @ Kangaskhanite Trait: Scrappy EVs: 252 Att / 252 Spd / 4 HP Jolly Nature (+Spd, - SpA) - Fake Out - Sucker Punch - Earthquake/Crunch - Double-Edge/Return + Show Spoiler +
Double priority is OP in Battle Maison because the AI is really predictable so you can cheese wins easily. DE vs Return is a preference thing. Both are fine. EQ/Crunch is for coverage and both are reasonable moves to have.
M-Kang's job is to Turn 1 Fake Out -> Mega Evolve into laying the smackdown on people. There are some Ghost Pokemon that wall you though badly depending on your move set though. In that case you Fake Out with Scrappy for the free damage and then swap out. Generally not a huge problem though.
Gengar @ Focus Band Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 4 HP Timid Nature (+Spd, - Atk) - Shadow Ball - Thunder Bolt - Sludge Bomb / HP Ice - Destiny Bond + Show Spoiler +
Gengar is a suicide nuke. It has a lot of free switch-ins which is great and it's a good way of preserving M-Kang which also refreshes the Fake Out. Gengar's job is to trade at least 1-for-1 thanks to Destiny Bond and should be able to do so since it outspeeds nearly everying in the Battle Maison. HP Ice gives you the tasty BoltBeam coverage but STAB Sludge Bomb is fine too.
Garchomp @ Choice Scarf Trait: Rough Skin EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 4 HP Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SpA) - Earthquake - Outrage - Iron Head / Poison Jab / Dragon Claw / Brick Break / Flamethrower / Shadow Claw - Iron Head / Poison Jab / Dragon Claw / Brick Break / Flamethrower / Shadow Claw + Show Spoiler +
Your "Oh Shit" insurance policy when everything goes wrong. Stacking your team with even more immunities for free switches is also great. Choice Scarf should guarantee outspeed on basically everything. Choose whatever filler move you care about but 90% of the time they won't matter. It comes in and cleans up. Never use Stone Miss in the Battle Maison. It's a very straighforward set. Not much else to say.
Other acceptable substitutes (heh) if you have a really strong attachment to certain Pokemon are:
Dragonite @ Lum Berry Trait: Multiscale EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 4 SpD - Dragon Dance - Outrage - Earthquake - Roost + Show Spoiler +
Standard DDnite lead that you should be familair with if you played Gen V.
Cloyster @ Focus Sash Ability: Skill Link Nature: Adamant 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HP - Shell Smash - Icicle Spear - Rock Blast / Protect / Surf / Explosion - Rock Blast / Protect / Surf / Explosion + Show Spoiler +
Standard Cloyster. Choose whatever filler moves you find the most hilarious.
Unless you're going for insanely huge streaks the Maison is pretty straight-forward tbh. Choose simple teams with a straightforward game plan to execute and pummel the AI relentlessly. HO is always the easiest because each match is over really fast (which is important if you're trying to do it all in one sitting and get bored beating up AI trainers lol) so if you basically good Pokemon with sensible EVs/Moves you'll be fine. Like, my Garchomp was Naive rather than Jolly and had the -SpD and all physical moves so it wasn't 100% optimal but it was still fine.
And I mean, if all else fails just use the broken as fk Durant + literally anything team. Classic is of course Gen V style Whimsicott / Durant / Set-up Sweeper with Protect. Everyone should be able to get to 50 wins with that team.
Thanks.
I really want a Gengar, but it is so hard to find people to trade with...
I will give Garchomp a go.
Parnage is the PokeDealer of the thread
He is never online.
Anyway, I am considering getting Talonflame replaced too. His only function right now is to switch into Lucario and other fast pokemon with Close Combat (1hko my M Kang). But he does do that one particular job quite well, able to 1shot any fast fighting types with one Brave Bird (then die, basically)

MoonBear I didn't say he was wrong, but there's only so many random tidbits like this that can fly around until you start having doubts.
Msuic is on but quiet
Also i found the secret, gargoyle girl OPOPOP
Gargoyle? There's noone related to stone (or at least not that way). Remilia? The winged vampire girl? Rushdown pretty good I guess, and her 236+A (or qcf+A) makes it easy to hit from afar.
Sakuya is a bitch to someone who doesn't know how to approach because her 214+B/C (qcb+B/C), standard C, and another move or two send volleys of knives that bounce on the edge of the screen, making for pretty good zoning/coverage. Patchouli can spam projectiles of all kinds like no other, Yuyuko's not bad in that department either.
Iku and Reisen have particularly dense C bullets to help deal with spam (bullets have a density, the denser one destroys the other in case of collision and keeps going).
Remember that dashing forward (there's a button, D I think, otherwise just double tap (then hold or not) the forward direction) lets you graze through bullets if you need to cross the screen anyway. Flying does that too (you can air dash, since flying burns meter).
Blocking wrong burns projectile meter, so you can't use too many projectiles if you're on the backfoot and blocking wrong, and you can even get orb crushed (you temporarily lose one of the orbs) if you block wrong while your meter is depleted.
Never online.. Just post my name in the thread, or send a pm, or light the bonfires. I am always watching, waiting, taking an hour to get to a station in alpha centauri.
I've never had a gengar, he was broken first gen and I never wanted all that power even thou now he's just pretty good not busted good.

M-Kang has 100 Base Speed and Lucario has 90 Base Speed. With Jolly +252 how is Lucario outspeeding you?

Durant abuse has been a thing since Gen V too lol. Ez BP abuse, ez life.

Holy shit.
I was reading this ability on the other day but I misread how it works. Damn. This sounds awesome.
As you can see, none of them have speed boosting items. In fact, the only Lucario on that list with any kill potential at all you care about is Lucario2 because it has Focus Sash, and can use Close Combat or Reversal for the OHKO after the Sash triggers.
There are two ways to play this. The first is swap out M-Kang to a throw-away Pokemon to die for you, bring M-Kang back in with Fake Out refreshed and then KO with Earthquake. Or if you have a Ghost Pokemon you swap it in because Lucario2 has literally 0 ways of hurting a Ghost Pokemon.
It kinda takes the fun out of it when you have a list of what kind of opponents you could be facing with the variant move sets and items. Well damn moonbear guess you right.

This kind of shows that I don't really understand the Battle Maison at all. I generally just switch out my Kangaskhan when I see a Lucario because Lucarios are kind of scary...
Luckily, my Talonflame can 1 shot it with priority Brave Bird.
Additionally, now I think about it a bit more, maybe I got screwed by a Lucario because I used Fake Out on him, but he had Steadfast and retaliated with Aura Sphere...
