Unless I can get a few more games in tonight, my final score is a 1700-ish, with 56 battles. Both me and my team were playing really crappy in this tournament.
This is bad form. There is very little tier control in this competition save banning a few "ubers". I've had a ton of disconnects from overpowered teams with pokemon like thundurus lining their ranks and with >1700 ratings. Of course they're going to win a lot, they're working with a great team. I'm certain they're not used to losing because it is really easy to win with a team like that against the kind of players that show up to this kind of competition. Personally I find that kind of team boring in this kind of competition but to each his/her own. If you lose to an UU team, you really should man up and take the loss. The good news is if somebody disconnects from you Nintendo seems to know you were not the one that dropped and you can get right back in to the competition with no BP loss.Dunno who it is that has the team with the Terrakion and the Whimsicott with beat up (serious cheese), I know that match was a bit weird with Rotom staying frozen for umpteen million turns (I suffered some bad luck crits) but come on at least let me have the video for posterity . . . DC instead? Pfft.

I used it nearly every single game. Mienshao is one of the greatest pokemon in the current, and former, VGC metagames. It is nearly the ultimate setup/assist pokemon, with access to both Fake Out and Inner Focus, plus a relatively high base speed. And then, with access to Hi Jump Kick, as long as you're not an idiot and predict who's going to protect, and take note of any opposing Ghost mons, he can 1HKO quite a few mons all by himself. He's probably my favorite pokemon.Wow! You managed to get to the upper 1800s with a Mienshao. Did you use it often?
Did you use a Focus Sash version or a GemCrobatics set?I used it nearly every single game. Mienshao is one of the greatest pokemon in the current, and former, VGC metagames.

1724 in 46 battles. Not bad for a Fire/Dark team. I always love the VGC battles different pokemon on show. Someone was streaming using a medicham, alolomola, manetric. I loved watching your battles :)
Neither. Wide Lense. I like 99% accurate Hi Jump Kicks and Rock Slides. In 127+ battles I only had one move miss one time, which was merely Rock Slide on one mon, which didn't even matter in that case. I've tested Focus Sash and Life Orb, and I've seen and faced Flying Gem, and while they're all useful, I'll never take the Wide Lense off of my Meinshao. Not after 4 HJK misses in 7 matches at VGC Chesterfield '12, SHEESH!Did you use a Focus Sash version or a GemCrobatics set?
Can't be any worse than the 99.6% hit percentage you would always have in Pokemon Stadium with moves like Thunderbolt.Neither. Wide Lense. I like 99% accurate Hi Jump Kicks and Rock Slides.

It just ended, unfortunately.Jumping on now for the first time since Saturday. How much time is left? (I'm on US EST, or GMT -4. Right now it's exactly 7 PM for me).
Most likely, considering the 10-battle requirement.You will probably get it after they've announced the winners and calculated the ratings for everyone officially.
