@Divad_777@shadowsneaks69 Tbf if you miss your Toxic with this team, you probably made some fundamental error, because Toxic used by poison Pokemon can not miss.

Crazy that this is getting barely any coverage. This year’s European Press Prize was just awarded to an investigative report by the Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant. It is entitled “What the Wounds Tell” and in it the journalists Maud Effting and Willem Feenstra document the cases of 114 children in Gaza under the age of 15 who were struck by a single bullet to the head or chest. Almost all of them died or were left severely disabled. They chose to document only the cases of boys and girls under the age of 15 (though often much younger: aged 3, 4 or 7) because these are children who can be immediately identified as such. “A single bullet in these parts of the body is a clear indication that these children were deliberately targeted“, the two journalists write.

There's nothing "offensive" about comparing the actions and mentality of Israel to those of the Nazis. What is offensive is demanding that one country and only it -- Israel -- be exempt from those comparisons because it hurts people's feelings, or because it seems "bigoted" to compare them.
The whole point of the Nuremberg Trials was that the precedents set there would only have meaning -- i.e., be something beyond mere "victor's justice" -- if those principles applied to the actions of **all countries** in the future. Israel doesn't have some special, unique exemption from the imperative.
@Montana_Pokemon It's less important now that we also have open natures, but especially with closed team sheets Bo3 EVing for guaranteed survives against stuff like Jolly / no Mystic Water gave you more information for the remaining two games if your Pokemon unexpectedly fainted to a move.
@CybertronVGC I challenge you to a VGC exhibition 2o3 vs my Mega Steelix team. Currently 10-0 undefeated. Victims include @AlexOgloza@13Yoshi37 and a 1/3 of my NPA team. You have 24 hours to decide.
Had this ruling come up in my most recent video.
If a player controls Ultimate Tyranno and attacks the opponent’s defense position Colossal Fighter allowing the colossal fighter to return in defense position it creates a loop where tyranno can infinitely swing and colossal can infinitely return.
Who would you say is causing the infinite loop and which player should be forced to stop? Should the Tyranno player be forced to not swing and let Colossal live? Or should the Colossal player be forced to not bring it back and lose their monster?
Let me know what you think!

quickly calculated this for fun (hopefully i didn't mess up!), got a 3.09 for diversity & 475 for power yeah this format will be a unique experience
The Venus flytrap grows wild in exactly one place on Earth, and they're being poached.
The entire global wild population lives in a roughly 75-mile radius around Wilmington, North Carolina.
The soil there is so nutrient-poor that these plants evolved to snap shut and digest insects just to survive.
It took millions of years to perfect that trap… and you can buy one at Lowe’s for $7. But here’s the darker part:
Poachers sneak into the bogs at night and rip thousands of them out of the ground. Some end up in the houseplant trade. Others get smuggled overseas.
North Carolina made it a felony in 2014, but people still do it anyway.
The most famous carnivorous plant in the world is being stolen into extinction from the only home it’s ever known.
What you can actually do:
1. Never buy wild-collected Venus flytraps (ask for “nursery-grown” or tissue-cultured)
2. Support habitat protection efforts in coastal North Carolina
3. Talk about it: most people have no idea how rare they really are in the wild
That little $7 plant in a plastic pot has a wild story most of us never knew.
