I swept Cynthia with a Level 55 Porygon-Z. Ice Beam for Garchomp, Togekiss and Roserade, Thunderbolt for Milotic and Lucario, and whatever for Spiritomb.

I don't think you know what hax means.Meh, lost to a guy online with over 4000 wins due to freaking burn hax from flamethrower
feels bad man.
I think you don't know what hax means. It's competitive Pokemon lingo.
As backlot said, in this context it means when a side effect with low chance of happening (burn from flamethrower, paralysis from thunderbolt) happens at a critical time and screws you over.
Oh and I just found a female bagon in the dream world FUCK YEAH!!!

I think we all know that Hax really is, Hax is what you use after you lose in any online game for legitimate reasons but in your bitter and sore loser state you can only assume foul play was afoot.
But yeah I guess Pokemon did adapt the phrase to being hit by those low chance move side effects on a moderately frequent basis, even so one burn=hax?

Well then competitive Pokemon lingo is dumb.
Hax implies that there is foul play at hand, not just luck.

I never lose, I just let you win! Baka.
those are hacks! Although my friends and I prefer to say we got Pokemon'd when referring to luck.
We should battle sometimes~I'm getting so many rage quits tonight. It's really bumming me out.
Sure! My FC is 2064-8507-1802. Send me yours and we can set something up.
If you're playing Doubles, I know a lot of people are disconnecting regardless of winning or losing so that the opponent can't save the battle video and upload it to VS Player. They don't want people scouting their Worlds / Worlds LCQ teams. VS Player puts out the IVs / EVs / Movesets and everything from the battle.I'm getting so many rage quits tonight. It's really bumming me out.
I was playing singles but that's pretty interesting. Is doubles always like that or just around tournament times?

VS Player was only created in the past few months so it's a relatively new phenomenon. xfr actually shut it off during US Nationals upon request because players didn't want people saving battle videos during swiss, uploading it to find out EVs / IVs and giving that information to their friends who were playing the next day.

Why is Deadpool harassing that harmless Diglett?

Well, he Shoryuken'd Shadowcat just to get a rise out of Wolverine, so it's not like he has the most sensible motives.

I'd do that too. Shadowcat is annoying, at least to me.
Plus, when is it not fun to get a rise out of Wolvy?Chet Rippo

But Wolverine deserves it.

Guy was really committed to the cosplay. I like that. Was there a video for this or something?

Several videos. He went to Comic-Con, AX and Fanime.

Riolu is my only legit shiny. Traded a legit Mew for it back when I was playing Diamond. He's a maintstay on my team but I still wish I could catch a shiny myself. Really surprised I haven't seen one before given how much time I've spent playing and replaying and replaying and replaying the games.
It is
I'm happy that it was a female, since the shiny male Jellicent is pretty ugly IMO In all my 10 years playing pokemon, I think I've found only 4 or 5 shiny pokemons in the wild, all in Pokemon Sapphire.
From the top of my head:
Taillow: First shiny, ran from the battle (I was so nervous I misclicked "Run" instead of "Items"
)Tentacool (Accidentally killed him)
Zigzagoon: Caught
Wingull: Caught
Almost all of my shiny pokemon from fourth gen are yellow/gold.
Tangela in HG/SS, Geodude in Diamond, Three! Magikarp in Diamond from breeding, Riolu from breeding in HG, Weepinbell in Diamond.
The only one that doesn't really fit the mold was a pokeradar abused beldum and a bunch I got off traded in games from GS that my friend used to borrow from work.

All this talk about shines has me contemplating asking for a trade for one but...I kind of want the experience of catching my own as well. I think it would be really cool but alas, like many others...my luck with this is just awful.
Mine is 4599 3557 3716
Cool, added. When's a good time for you to battle?
