  I had no idea what I was doing, but it was fun owo ~ I completely forgot whats weak to what for the most part, which lead to some derp moments, teehee.
  
  Kurayami will post the replay.

  
  
  I barely won, you took out half my team in the first 5 turns x-x

  I lost. Fun duel though. That lucky freeze totally ruined my plans D:
  
  Also total derp on my part for forgetting that Kyurem-Black has an electric move.

  It was indeed fun. Quite the endurance match in the end.
  
  I screwed up quite a few times, but I managed to win in the end.

  Second set of matches are up. Also updated the first page a bit to inform everyone that hasn't seen it yet that you don't have to only use one team during the entire league. You can use any combination of Pokemon you want to use until the tournament. Once the tournament starts, you will only be able to use one team, so use this time to develop a team that will suit well with your play style.

  Ninjam vs Lyrveil
  Winner: Lyrveil
  
  It was a fun match. If his gardevoir had known a psychic move I would probably have lost!

  That one was fun, knew I shoulda used hp fire instead of trick there.

  I've got to figure out what exactly I'm doing wrong...

  You were fine. My team is far from ideal for OU and I honestly thought I'd die horribly to yours. My Volcarona got lucky with you sending out two Bug/Steel Pokemon in succession and getting that Fiery Dance proc. I expected that Arcanine to Extreme Speed at least one of my mons into a coma (I've been learning that quite a few of them have a physical glass jaw through testing the team in rated battles). I think the major mistake you made was sending your Scisor in against my Volcarona, who was already well on its way to setting up. Deitylight's team was probably the first time a Scisor struck fear into my heart, as between Skarmory and Volcarona I'm usually able to deal with them reliably (incidentally, it's also the very first time I saw a Roosting Scisor).
  
  And it's not like I didn't make any crngeworthy mistakes, either (I made a lot of them in my first match).
  
  I can tell you now my two biggest mistakes were not burning your Forretress on turn 1 and switching my Skarmory in on Arcanine (anticipated Extreme Speed, not Flamethrower). I honestly thought I was done at that point because I knew I couldn't reliably bring Volcarona out as freely as I wanted. Heck, I'm still facepalming that I didn't Mega-evolve Gardevoir during the turn I used Heal Bell. I thought she was gonna succumb to that Dark Pulse before I could remove kill Umbreon.
  
  Did I mention Umb/Espeons, Lucarios and Arcanines scare the living daylights out of me?

  Yeah, I forgot your bug was part fire when I sent Scizor out. I was focused on using Aieral Ace against it and the Steel <? Fire aspect slipped my mind.

  My pokemons proved victorious.

  We had two more matches after this, where I won once more (but it was close), then another where I lost. Should I post the other replays?

  Realllly do not like Gastrodon. I derped badly and thought about Water Absorb instead of Storm Drain
• Professor Oak wrote on 2014-09-06 06:39
  Adding the matches for the 6th early, because I'm not 100% sure I'll be able to announce them later on today.

  Won my first match!
  
  Kit's still a loser who's too afraid to play against me.
