Entertainment How To Battle Correctly

[Level 51]

aka, Battling 1337

So basically, this article is about how to battle by "following your instincts". It's not serious, kind of like a warstory-tutorial (like this one) but with an opposite goal. :P For example:

>Gliscor is purple
>ALL purple Pokemon are Poison-type it must be poison!!!
>Use Earthquake
>Opponent predicts a Icicle Crash and switches out to his Jirachi
>???
>PROFIT!!

I'm not really sure what you're suggesting here. Are you going to be giving helpful advice, or is it more about making a stupid mistake that ultimately pays off? Can you be a bit more specific?

 

[Level 51]

It is quite possibly the direct opposite of helpful advice; as you can see, it is destined for the Entertainment section. Basically, all the "advised" plays are the opposite of good predictions, but the other player tries to predict properly and dies :(

This sounds like a strange, but pretty funny article to me. Support!

Talked with Birkal about this yesterday. I'm going to call it approved.
