Would some time between 6-8ET/10-12GMT at night work?

 

@DerekIsAGooner beat me on the last move.... that was a really great match.

[Gen 8] Ubers replay: DerekIsAGooner vs. Gentleman Jordan - Pokémon Showdown

 

I spent most of that match thinking I was going to lose. I have a whole new respect for Togedemaru.

 

I was really banking on Seismitoad tanking your first hit. That wa a bit of a pipe dream.

 

Also Togedemaru is fantastic. And everyone needs to know it.

 

I thought that you might keep switching between Braviary and Togedemaru at the end to catch me using electric and ghost moves with Toxtricity that wouldn't be effective/be immune to you. That's why I kept spamming Hex/the ghost GMax move against you.

 

Yeah... that would’ve made a lot of sense for me to do....

 

I REALLY wanted Togedemaru over Morpeko. When you drafted it I was so bummed out, my team would be way better with it than it is now.

 

You're also talking to the guy who threw in Barraskewda after a U Turn thinking he could use his Focus Sash to tank the hit not remembering that your Stealth Rocks would render the Focus Sash useless, and then the move I changed him into OHKO'd him.

 

Yeah. I thought that was a weird move.

 

***ATTENTION***

If anyone wants to participate in the tier listing, please like this post. I will message you a link to the Google Sheet.

Even if you don't think you know enough about all of the Pokemon, your input on the ones you know well is appreciated!

 

The hearts were the brightest emoji I could find on the site.

Also, love you all!

 

do we have certain conditions for what makes an S?

right now i'm just thinking S are Pokemon that can pretty much swing matches on its own, with that in mind I'm not sure I have any support 'mon I can consider S

 

I’m just thinking of it broadly as “top tier”. I was a little generous with it since we’ll need at least 10 in this tier so everyone can get one.

 

@CarpetElf and I are playing his match vs Orca

Showdown!

 

Pretty much same as @JRShoenberger , I consider it a Pokemon that can be consistently elite on a variety of teams

Dracovish, Tyranitar, Dragapult, etc (some of the ones I picked). I don't think the Pokemon has to necessarily swing matches all alone, but I think they have to be able to operate on any team in some way shape or form

 

Orca's team defeated @CarpetElf

@Fucking Dustin and @zigbigwig I went through the list again, and realized that Corviknight was missing. FYI. I just added it. If you don't see a name, search for it in the document, and feel free to add it in.

me vs @Laura
Replay: [Gen 8] Ubers replay: Laurahatesdogs vs. zigbigwig - Pokémon Showdown

 

@zigbigwig won

Good game! I had no counter for your Sigilyph.

 

i was expecting a lot of status moves so i was deciding between wasting a slot for heal bell vaporeon or just power through it with safety goggles, magic guard, magic bounce and ferrothorn (immunity to powder moves and toxic) - went with the latter.

the one thing i didn't anticipate was gmax befuddle causing sleep. i wasn't aware of that.

@Laura haha yeah sigilyph was my golden ticket. it checks toxapex and with some minimal setup it can deal massive damage to your team. i brought in quagsire specifiically for cloyster
