That's me and I want you guys to put me in my place ...

I've never done this before, so I think the only way to learn is to do something wrong and learn from my mistakes.

So, again, I know nothing. I learned what EV is by accident the other day, lol.

Here's my team.

Gallade
-Double team
-Leaf Blade
-Close Combat
-Night Slash

Metagross
-Light Screen
-Rest
-Hammer Arm
-Explosion

Alakazam
-Psychic
-Sunny Day
-Recover
-Shadow Ball

Tyranitar
-Crunch
-Stone Edge
-Swagger
-Flamethrower

Venusaur
-Solar Beam
-Poison Powder
-Sleep Powder
-Synthesis

Last one: Note sure .. :\.

And again, show no mercy :).
 
i belive that there is a thread for this

see NOTE:In game teams go here

it's not hard to see, it should be the first one up top
 
Hmmm .. I'm clearly completely clueless, because after reading that I still don't get what the problem is.
 
nothing, just delete the first post and put this in the thread i mentioned earlier

No items, no EVs, no abilities, no explanation of what your strategy is and what this team tries to accomplish...absolutely nothing but 5 Pokemon and their 4 attacks...
 
I guess I came to the wrong place.

Considering that pokemon isn't exactly the most active area of the competitive gaming world, I thought this place would be a little more open to new players ..

Rules should be used to guide. I merely came here hoping to get some insight on how pokemon battling works. I spent a bit of time putting together a team that I thought was reasonable .. not to accomplish anything in specific, because I don't know enough about the game to do that. I can supply EVs, but all I wanted was a bit of info from some more experienced players. I guess I wasn't clear enough or carefull enough not to step over any hidden boundaries on this forum.

There is a Simple Questions and Answers thread specifically for this section where you may ask whatever you what about competitive battling and get help there.
 
k man, it's 12 40 and i can't sleep

it ain't a hidden boundery when theres a ALL CAPS thing that says READ ME BEFORE POSING on it, and you can post it, in the first thread in this forum, right up at the top, it says PLEASE NOTE: all in game teams go here

also, insomniac, this has nothing to do with anything but i can't stop staring at you picture

It should say,

"Post in the Ingame Teams Here Thread if you're inexperienced or do not have a setgoal in mind for your team."

I don't really care tbh. I just hate when forums have ridiculous rules and when you try to follow them all you get from the members are wannabe mod responses. Not that you guys really are, but it kind of feels that way.

Um the threads and rules are very simple, however I asked a admin if they could be made even more clear. And I don't understand why you're calling us mini mods when all we're trying to do is help you and direct you to the correct thread.
 
"Oh like lol bro..maybe try reading the rules?"

I don't get why that's funny. That was what led to my wannabe mod response .. I see that all over the place on all kinds of gaming sites.

The rules aren't clear. They're enforced differently than they are listed. Sure, I should have probably listed my EV values, but I didn't realize I needed so much detail to make a thread here.

By looking at your thread it appeared as though you didn't read the thread so I assumed the worst. The rules are very simple and tell you what how you have to post your team to get rated, otherwise there is a in-game team thread and a questions thread where you're free to ask questions.
 
Hmmm, well, if anything ..

I hope this encourages the mods to edit that thread. Reading over the rules I still can't see why I'm in the wrong here, so I'm sure other new people will make the same mistake.

Sorry about the wannabe mod thing, you guys were just trying to help.

I think I'll just be ghost on this forum for a bit longer and maybe post in the future lol.
