Who here battles competitively?
It doesn't seem anybody does here :<
I prefer battling on Showdown rather than XY because 6vs6 is better than 3vs3.

Re: Who here battles competitively?
I battle on Showdown because I'm too lazy to put together a team in the actual games.
My favorite tiers are Gen 5 UU and Gen 5 NU; I'm not used to Gen 6 yet, I don't like OU and Uber, and there's not enough toys in RU to play with.
Little Cup's alright though, and I want to get into Hackmons sometime.

^Gen 5 UU is my favourite tier as well, we should definitely battle at some point!

I...dabble in it. It's an interesting pastime.

Re: Who here battles competitively?
Hmm...well if VGC 2014 counts, I do! I also do Little Cup B&W/X&Y,G/S/C OU,and R/B/Y OU.
But I don't like how Smogon bans stuff and lets you use as many of the same item as
much as you want in Little Cup and G/S.

Re: Who here battles competitively?
Simulators never really appealed to me, and getting a competition wothy team in-game was always too time consuming(not to mention that prior to WiFi, I would have had no one to battle other than pitting two of my own teams against each other.)
Though, with the changes to the breeding mechanics, Friend Safari making it easier to get good starting stock for a eugenics breeding program, and super training and hoards making EV training a lot less tedious, and the new Exp. Share making level grinding a lot less tedious, etc. I might start working on a competitive team if I ever play X/Y.

Re: Who here battles competitively?
I've got a competitive team ready in X/Y, although it needs some work. I think I'm switching one of the Pokemon out, and I might rebreed for a couple of them. I'm also just now looking into a rapid spinner.
Re: Who here battles competitively?
I've played online against random people in Revolution, it's actually pretty fun at times.
I battle against my brother now and then on double / lvl 50 all, but I recently gave him my Wartortle so I'll have to figure some things out.
I haven't battled against anyone online in forever though, and I don't really remember how the tiers work.

Re: Who here battles competitively?
I've played competitively since the Platinum era of Gen 4 (aka the uprising of our overlord Scizor), although I don't mind playing at either casual or competitive levels. I lost a LOT of interest in later Gen 5 outside of RU and Little Cup. OU was nothing but weather wars and most of the Pokemon that interested me otherwise were either BL or RU. I am regaining interest in Gen 6 at least (although Aegislash, Talonflame, and Greninja are so freaking common right now).

Competitive battled since the Platinum era. I use showdown to test out teams and stuff for XY. I have two teams in the works right now in XY. :>

Re: Who here battles competitively?
I'm not too much of a competitive BATTLER (don't have the attention span to EV train plus school and ****) but I do analyze it to the detail, and I have been meaning to get into Pokemon Showdown competitive. I actually love the analysis more than I do being in a battle but sadly analysis isn't much of a trait to have if you're not the one battling ^^'.

Re: Who here battles competitively?
I don't battle competitively, I suck to hard for that. I actually just train pokes and never do anything with them :D
