I've been looking for a nice poison type pokemon to add to my team, but I can't decide on one. Amoongus came to mind, but the always present Talonflame makes me doubt that pick. There's also Drapion, but I don't hear much talk of him. Decisions, decisions...

Drapion's great with Spikes and Toxic Spikes, but consider Scolipede. It's got great bulk, and while being a neat attacker it -also- has the possibility of being a tank and Baton Passer. Either way, it has access to Speed Boost as an ability. Easy!

It's also really attractive.

Ok then, I'll try that. I don't know why I didn't think about it, but then I've only ever seen it as a baton passer online. I will give it a try.

I recommend Mega Venusaur 'cause it's bulky as heck, can heal itself, can deal good damage and can put things to sleep.
Alternatively, Mega Gengar's just a total beast and one of the best Megas in the game.
I use a bulky Roserade for support purposes and to wall Rotom-W, but Mega Venusaur outclasses it.

So on Twitch they've made about 80 attempts to take on the Emerald Elite Four, and they've gotten as far as the Champion match. While the stream's host planned to start a randomized version of FireRed (and had a countdown to it), he's extended their deadline (three days ago) and apparently has not announced any plans to kill Emerald without them winning the game -- but there are already image macros and parodies floating around now that their 'deadline' is approaching again:

Watching TPP, and the dark-type Elite Four just got -stomped- by Hariyama. They're overlevelled and got a good team comp... only 12 hours left, but they'll make it. :p

I hope so!

I just don't get how they didn't win yet:

Bwahahahaha!

M4 got slaughtered by the champion after Rollout missed twice, unfortunately, and the Tentacruel was gonna win it until someone decided to switch from using Surf to using Dive. :[

That gif really made me laugh^^ It's so cool how much funny stuff comes from the fans of the stream!
But I actually sorta stopped following it. I check on them every now and then but other than that... Meh. The novelty has worn off for me. Like when I got my Wii back then. :V

But the stream really did have some epic and heartbreaking moments! Remember when All Terrain Venomoth took out Lance? :D

I am NOT going to miss this E4 victory.

I missed Red and Crystal due to my time zone, but I WON'T miss this one.

On a slightly related note, I started playing randomised Emerald because I couldn't wait for the Twitch version. I began with a Haunter with Limber, and my rival has a [top percentage] Rattata with Rough Skin.

Haven't found a legendary yet though.

"Poliwagg: We're so done with this elite4, I don't even want a hoenn remake anymore"

I feel this guy's pain. Twenty minutes after getting slaughtered by one of the Leaders and they're still limping around trying to talk to #3.

Apparently, they've finally defeated the E4 and Champion. It only took them 103 tries....

Watching one of the recap videos. Wailord's opening Blizzard missed! Twice! (The exact same thing that enabled my Absol to go Swords Dance happy and then SWEEP half of the Champ's team for the win back in Emerald myself....)

Oh, I assumed you had a team ready. I won't be available to battle Saturday night, we'll just have to do it some other time.

Egad, Twitch playing FireRandom is officially crazy.

Their starter is a Machop ... with TRUANT.

And they got killed by a Taillow with MEGA PUNCH.

Then they caught a Surskit with VOLT ABSORB and HYPER BEAM.

Y'know, if there are any you're still missing, just today I did some swapbacks to get some into Reno's Dex. I have pretty much every legendary save for Shaymin, Meloetta, Uxie and Mespirit.
