Lol don't let it make any difference, if the only thing someone can complain about your warstory is "Oh no I need to scroll down a bit more" then you definitely did a good job :DThanks everyone for the positive comments, and the 5* rates too! I won't include any scroll-down suspense in my next warstory, it's clearly not popular.
help, I don't get it
sure, it doesn't exist. Neither does NU, LC and any other unofficial tier there might be. But you can still play them. If you have some unexplained grudge on MC that can't be overlooked, post it in the thread or hell, even in the social group -- not in here. Stop dissing the guy and most of the readers that might be scrolling down as we speak.
Middle Cup is not a metagame, it's non-existant.taught me a lot about a metagame
Newsflash: Not officially recognised by Smogon /=/ non-existant. If people play it, then of course a metagame will form, regardless of how Smogon sees it.Middle Cup is not a metagame, it's non-existant.
Not quite. It's composed of Pokemon that are the second of three-stage evolution lines (so something like Psyduck could not be used, for example, but Wartortle could be). Of the ones you listed, Scyther does not fit the criteria. There is another unofficial NFE tier, but I believe Scyther is banned from that.I have a question, is Middle Cup essentially a metagame for the NFE tier, including Magneton, Scyther, Porygon2, Chansey, etc. ?
Hey, let me explain. You said MC doesn't exist, right? But it has a pokemon list, a playerbase and enough strategy going on in it to be called 'a tier' so I assumed you called it so because it isn't an official tier. So I mentioned NU because it, like LC and MC, aren't official as well. "Lrn2metagame".Lol , I stopped reading this post after you said NU doesn't exist. Lrn2metagame.
NU as a metagame exists as much as Terrorist Cup, UU+BL or Middle Cup does. NU is a "rump tier", a tier to dump unused Pokemon; not a tier that's created to be played unlike UU or OU. Metagame-wise it's neither regulated nor recognized by Smogon. It has a fair fanbase and a forum/irc channel/usergroup dedicated to it though, just like MC.Lol , I stopped reading this post after you said NU doesn't exist. Lrn2metagame.

He probably didn't want to risk getting slept.A few weird, maybe rushed plays, like staying in with Croco against Rose instead of switching to Haunter
Lol, "newsflash", fake metagame is fake. Even if it was recognised by Smogon it'd be a fake metagame. Lmfao.Newsflash: Not officially recognised by Smogon /=/ non-existant. If people play it, then of course a metagame will form, regardless of how Smogon sees it.
Only reason you say it's a metagame is because you play it. Even if over half of the moderation staff played it, it'd be a non-existent metagame. Oh, and by the way, NU is regulated/recognized by Smogon. Smogon might be adding a tier between UU and NU to regulate and make NU a non-broken metagame. Also, NU pokemon have analyses for the NU/UU tier, thus it is already recognized as a tier. MC, however, is a completely fake, completely idiotic thought.NU as a metagame exists as much as Terrorist Cup, UU+BL or Middle Cup does.

As a MC player, I certainly approve this warstory :P
Diamondfan1910 has said what I was too lazy to type out, but I just want to point this out. NU Pokemon analyses are tailored towards UU, not NU. NU as a rump tier is recognized by Smogon, but the metagame isn't. There are ideas to make NU an official tier, but with B/W coming out 14 days later chances are it won't be implemented and 4th gen NU will stay an unofficial tier forever; just like MC, probably.Also, NU pokemon have analyses for the NU/UU tier, thus it is already recognized as a tier.
