We did WAY too good lol! That's actually the third match I've played and all of them have turned out the same. We destroy them and half way through they surrender. I genuinely feel bad but the victory is too good! Also, feel thankful that the wondrous Queen Vapor graced you with her presence! (🤭) Anyways, I had fun and thanks for playing!

I had fun too! 😁... I still want them to fix the lobby though. We were about to switch to a bigger battle when you left and it would have been easier if we all didn't have to leave then rejoin, plus easier for me to ask those who can only use presets and stickers if they want to play a certain stadium. (We usually use a slowbro sticker to ask that question of each other). The guys can read my chats so it was easy for them to see when I asked all of us "last quick then move to a bigger battle?"… Just curious, can you see either the stickers/preset chats or regular chats? I know you've stated you don't chat but does that mean you can't see the stickers?

No, I can't see any of it. I remember way back when me and Kylie (my cousin) would play together and her and one of our "friends" had started using stickers. I was so jealous and she tried to show me how to do it but then that's when we realized that with Chat turned off you can't see or use the stickers. Long story short, no I can't see it.

... sorry if this question looks weird. Cause I asked u at the cliffs

Still looks good when I see it for a second time! And you may have already asked, but I haven't! I, too, would like to know how you are, D!

AWESOME, @PokeMom244 !!! YES YES! 🔥🐉🔥

I had a bunch of things to do in rl yesterday (and I used my online time in Unite and at Dragon's Reach) and knew if I stayed in the forums, that I would have been in for a looooooong time. I think I just briefly stopped by 🤔. Anyways, I did miss being in here and hope all is well! I'll be around today, 🤞😁🤞 hopefully.

I was wondering where you were! Yes, I do hope to see you today! Also, what's Dragon's Reach?

(Commenting so you see this. I hope you read this in a Captain Jack Sparrow voice for absolutely no reason, savvy)

(oi! I will now go back and reread it completely in Jack Sparrow's voice, expressions and all 😁🏴‍☠️)

YES!!! Soooo much fun!!!

I did notice the Ceruledge holowear you were rock'n! And you still shone and are excellent with our girl 😉💜🔥.

That was my first time as Yvelyal, I had just unlocked the trial license during the prematch selection part... So thank you! I wanted to try him out before the highly likely nerf.

I am a big fan of fire spin (as you've heard me ramble many times, lol), so I am totally cheering you on!.

Ok, I was wondering why my Glaceon wasn't flowing as smoothly.... We probably had lag around the same times but yours much worse than mine. Too much fun!

You also were totally fabulous with Quaquaval (spinning around while KOing the oranges is fun isn't it 😉).

Yes! Very good matches with good teammates. No complaints here 😁

I was Leafeon. But it feels like every Eeveelution game we play has the worst lag! Yes yes, I love my duck! No complaints from me either! Just a lot of rambles about how fun it was!

My break didn't start until after you went offline 😭

I MISSED YOU AGAIN!!!

It's all about timing .. I apologize for not being timely enough all the time. Hmmm to many times i used a time word, lol. Maybe next time will be the time we can spend time in the same matches? 😁

I'M HERE AT THE TIME YOU ARE!!!

LOL!! YES!!! (But I have to get going in a few seconds soooooo have a HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY! 🎉🥳🎉

You too!

Thank you 😁

Im sorry the matchmaking kept getting cancled... idk why.

I didn't mean to ghost yall like that.

@Dragonfly102024 Thank you for playing!
It was so fun!
I kept getting ko'd lol.
Hope to play again soon!

WHAT!?!?!? I MISSED A GAME WITH YOU AND D!? Why did nobody tell me of it? 😭 I've been wanting Team Dragon Flame to play together!

When the three of us finally do get together, can we play a game as our Dragon Flame member? Me Charizard (I wish I had X but I don't yet (might choose it as my All Rounder tonight)), D Dragonite, and PM Umbreon.

@PokeMom244, actually that was me .. I was trying to sticker which Pokemon I wanted to play with next so I could have a chance to play with my girl Ceruledge just once. Also between matches I like to see if other squad members or friends are looking for a team to play on and when leaving we usually sticker "Thank You" and "Good Luck!" (being polite and positive) so we normally pause for a quick few seconds between matches in case anyone in lobby is coming in or leaving. I apologize if it messed up your flow but thank you for coming back in the lobby.

Check out the word of the week!

Lol, I just saw it @Hades0918 . 😁. (Not me!)

(I hope not me either!) So how's your morning going?

UNITE WAS SO FUN!!! We finally got Team Dragon Flame together and played at our Pokémon! That was awesome! We did so good! Too good, actually. I was doing the 5 Ranked Matches as my Daily Quest for Yveltal and four of those games almost had me rage quit because the opponents literally slaughtered me and my team every game! It was different teammates and enemies but same loss each time! Well, then I started playing with you, Blaziqueen, and PM and suddenly I was on the team that I was just hating. I honestly felt bad for our opponents! Anyways, we killed it! Thanks for playing! That was a lot of fun!

Thank you for playing unite!

Finally did team dragon flaaaame!!!!!

cough sorry if I play ceru to much. I shall play it a little less.

Otherwise thank you for playing!!

I had a blasst!

Sorry I haven't been in much to respond... Yes! That was fun yesterday. Ummmmmm @Hades0918 I do believe those random (opposing teams) matches may not have been all reals. I'm sorry. I explained it once to @fineasmatei how to tell the difference (I don't remember the thread or wall). It was still fun though, and I had a blast! I also must apologize for when I was Latios, at the end... I misunderstood CP when asked to come to her using their quick button, I thought that meant you all needed help with Regigigas so I draco meteored him and kept at it. She was telling me to "continue on" meaning leave the area but I thought she meant continue on fighting Regi as if oranges were coming or something. I don't know who started Regi and I would have backed off if there wasn't a miscommunication.... So I apologize... I didn't really mean to take Regi from whoever, (CP informed me it was yours?) I was just trying to help.

I'm not too worried about it. As long as someone gets it that's fine!

How's your day going?

Ok... Phew .... I've played with some people who get "salty" over accidentals. I'm glad that isn't you or @PokeMom244 ! Hmmm my day is good so far. 🙂. Thanks for asking! And yours?

Good. But I feel overly stressed and scatter brained, so I'm taking today off school because I know I'm not in the proper head space

That was smart of you. Did it help? Are you back to normal?

I think I am. Focus is a struggle but I'm not stressed, so I think I'm fine now

… I have no new disagrees… Maybe they have matured…?

I also know a couple of the flaggers when there were flaggers

Ummm @Evolve8eon , not the same thing. This person gave out to me over 150 flags immediately after a positive post due to a difference of opinions. Everytime they came online after the first two days of flagging every single post on my wall and comment or thread I made regardless of what the actual content was, they continued to trickle flags on me. Look at how many unjustified flags I have... Over 460... then look at how many you have. They also hit @Hades0918 because he defended or agreed with me. Yes I realize some of my flags are not from this specific person..... but the majority? It makes me laugh now how petty that individual was/is. How they haven't been banned for their content in their comments I have no clue. The mods couldn't or wouldn't do anything that I know of at that time (maybe they were warned privately?) and this person continues to attack, belittle, make fun of and bully very aggressively us and anyone who disagrees with their negative views on the Pokemon franchise and Unite. I'm sorry @Evolve8eon for the flags you have received but please realize that some of your comments may have been questionable to others or perhaps they felt the flags were justified. If they were going through every single post and comment you had ever made in a specific section or on your wall within a couple of hours timeframe, then yeah, those people should be considered mass flaggers. That happened to me. Unfairly.

Yeah, and me and this person actually had a fight before you came around. The mods removed half is the comments, me and them having an equal share of removal. I'll be honest, I stooped to their level in terms of insulting but I never handed out a flag. And they even tried to play victim afterwards... I just let them go, tired of the fight.

Ohhhh I think I saw something where you ( @Hades0918) and Thur were discussing something with them....

Not that one... They were being rude to someone in the thread for supporting Unite. I didn't even play Unite at the time (still hadn't planned on coming back) but I couldn't stand their disrespect. So, I stepped in. Yeah, not my battle, I know, but as I've said in the past I somehow manage to force myself into conflict. Anyways, after that me and them just argued over it. I didn't care about the Unite side of things. I hated their negativity. I might be able to find the post, but like I said about half of the argument was removed so you won't see where we really get into it...

Oops, I forgot, @Evolve8eon , that another big bunch of my flags were likely not from the Unite flagger person.... I know this because I WATCHED IN LIVE TIME the flags get applied to a VERY LARGE portion of my comments in.... dadadaaaaaaaah.... the TinkatoWn thread. Yep. Myself, @Hades0918 , @fineasmatei , we all received an incredibly large amount of flags from there like the person didn't even bother reading and just flagged comments by specific trainers..... I still think it is funny that certain trainers didn't receive a single flag from that mess 🤔. And it's funny because some of the flagged comments were legitimately Pokemon related and shouldn't have been flagged (when I was talking about Slowbro, Rockruff, etc.).....

Nods as you explain

@hades, you were online at that time too, I remember you being attked right before (minutes) in a different thread and then they moved over to TinkatoWn 😕..... And so were others online 🤨.......

I think I watched as the numbers jumped abs laughed to myself if this is the time I'm thinking about... (You know I've been mass flagged too many times if I'm not sure which flagging it is lol)

Well at least we don't have to deal with new flags anymore. Lol

Agreed!

I'M HEADING OVER TO UNITE WITH @PokeMom244!!! Join if you want!

all I said was I know who one of the flaggers was, where did you get everything else from 😭

She was just explaining that we were talking about someone else.

I literally said I was talking about someone else

I understand and acknowledged that it was someone else you mentioned. However, I was redirecting the convo back to the op (original point) of @Hades0918 comment and the history behind it.

Hmmmmm ..... I'm in a pondering mood.... Yet my thoughts are jumbled..... Where's a ponderosa when you need one? Maybe clean fresh cool mountain air would help me get unjumbled.....

Sounds like you have a busy mind. Any specific thought that speaks louder than the others?

Hmmmm... well besides the fact that I miss chocolate.... Hmmmmm..... and a penny for your thoughts, @Hades0918 ?

Legendary poets have some of the weirdest, most disgusting, and/or tragic life story. I'm currently learning about that in my Literature class. Edgar Allan Poe, although great at what he does, married his 13 year old cousin when he was 26. Yeah… Then he died four months after her, but when they found him he wasn't wearing his clothes and was found mumbling about something incoherent. I would believed he was just in… "Jack Sparrow mode" (I don't want go get banned for bringing up that drink) but he remained this way for four days in the hospital before dying, never becoming coherent enough to explain what happened to him. I don't think that he would be "you know what" for four days straight… There's some other weird ones but his really stood out to me (especially who he married). I'm also thinking about how much I want to meet some of y'all IRL…

Sorry, I know that a very random (and even a bit dark) thing to talk about

It's all good. 🙂 And very interesting too. I thank you for sharing. Some of the big fine arts artists have dark stories too. Like Vincent Van Gogh.....

Here's another random thought as i read through posts I am late in arriving to.... "I've got your back" .... yeah, some of this is..... complicated and old issues are being brought up again. It's like, I will be friendly, but I am wary of what's going on.... If that makes sense?

It completely makes sense. You see, there's a saying. "Forgive and forget." I personally disagree with this. Not to be negative, but I say "Forgive but never forget." I'm not saying to hold a grudge and always bring up something someone did just because you can, but I'm saying don't just let them get away with it. If you just forget about it, you'll allow them to continue to do it and never make it out of the toxic behavior. I hope I explained that right…

(Psst, D! I need you to go back a while on your page and please delete a certain convo… I was complaining about that argument I had with Volts and after a while we changed topics and started taking guesses at one another's ages (I'm glad we did because it helped me move on from the fight (like I said you're always so good at making things positive)). I thought you had deleted anything that had to do with age so a recent comment of mine to you brought that up, thinking it wasn't there anymore. But it is there. I would appreciate if you could please remove it? (Page right before the last one on your wall))

I did so and thank you for notifying me! I apologize but it was easier just to delete the entire thread.... There may have been a couple of age ranges suggested.

Nah, you're good. I deeply regret that rant so I'm happy without it. At the time I just needed to vent them out became a fun convo! But yes it's safer without it

Agreed. Let me know if I should delete anything else, ok? I don't mind.

Nah you're good. Anyways, change of topic, how are you doing?

I was just in unite maybe 30 min ago... They forgot the Ultra level 5 rewards again 😕. They have one for each level when you first rank up classes EXCEPT Ultras. I gtg. Hope to be back soon... Maybe

Yes yes 😞

I'm sorry... Hope you do come back!

I'm back! 😁

Welcome back! 😁

I'm awake!

Pst... Did you know it was someone's bday just super recently?

Was it already revealed in the Forums? I know about yours, I did forget to tell @PokeMom244 happy birth month (or did I tell her...?), and I told @Eremas happy birthday

Yes!! I was thinking of PM because we all already expressed happy bday wishes to Eremas. Hmmmmm I know someone else's too 😁 and they'll be hopefully enjoying cake, ice cream and fireworks soon😉... But IDK if I'm allowed to say whose..... So I'll just say... HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU-KNOW-WHO-YOU-ARE! (They may not even read my wall tbh, lol)

(and thanks @Ember2026 ) I don't know how long I'll be in here right now with so much going on in Unite!

Yes yes, very true

"without a thought, without a reason, reason"........

"all the words are written, so I've got none left to say, no...."

🎶🎵"insert cool instrumental ending here"🎶🎵

🎶🎶🎶 (YEAH!!!)

Randomly runs onto the stage with y'all AND I'M HERE, TOO!!! 😁

I knew there was "Something Missing!" @Hades0918 didn't join in on the song earlier! Well, continuing on... 🎵🎶🎵🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵🎵🎶🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵🎵🎶🎵

(😂, I get it CP! LOL!) yes yes, missing missing... (Woohoo, go @Hades0918). 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

Mumbling incoherent nonsense while y'all sing the actual lyrics

Changing songs now..

🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶 "You know there's something Missing, The dance aside the eyes and arms... We're Missing, Not running outta time, but Missing." Great. Now I'm going to have it stuck in my head allll day 😆

Nodding along like I know it but secretly clueless

Hi!!!!!!!!!!!! You're good, and you're right. I've been here just in and out. I've been distracted by rl and some ideas in my head I had to finish, just had to (thus minecrft time yet not forum minecraft). Ever feel spread to thin or think there just isn't enough time in the day? That's me daily. I'll be around, I'll try to be more active, and I'm not leaving, lol. Thank you, @Hades0918 .... seriously.

Uumm... You're welcome? I don't know what I did but I'll happily take the credit lol! Yes, I do understand that. I want to write: Lance and Homare, Forums Fantasy, DnD Like Story, Arceus' Chosen One, the Interactive Story (I need to update that), the Interactive Horror game on my wall, as well as many others that I have (none have been forgotten) plus ideas I've had. I want to play Minecraft with y'all but also with my Uncle Goat and little cousins. I want to play Unite and Champions with you. I want to improve my art. I want to read more books that I have literally piled on my desk. I need to continue my Forums Play Sword but haven't prioritized it like I should have. I need to get my essay about figurative language and imagery used in a 1000+ page book done. I want to improve my art skills. I want to work out and get fit. I want more family time. I definitely understand what you're saying...

Yep... I totally understand. I was thinking about setting a tighter schedule of when I do what including what I need to do, but then that makes the things I enjoy feel like work instead of.... well, it feels stifling to creativity for me, and then there's this rush to always be going going going that I don't want anymore... sometimes I just want to be... (if that makes any sense)... and then time slips away from me....

No, that completely makes sense. You're tired of always going and ready for some relaxing you time. And then the schedule thing... yeah, no I just go with the flow. I always fail to stick with a schedule and it's also more fun when life just happens

I OFFICIALLY OWN QUAQUAVAL IN UNITE!!! 🥳🥳🥳

CONGRATULATIONS!!! 🎉🥳🎉 (I'm 20 pts behind you so I should have him today around reset too 😉)

(That's awesome!) I wish I could give my Pokemon nicknames in Unite… Char, Pi, Cadetta, Phoxy, Bundles, Catsuki, and Jack/Jackie are just a few I'd love to do! (Charizard, Pikachu, Ceruledge, Delphox, Cinderace, Meowscarada, and Quaquaval to clear up any confusion)

I still call them by nicknames when I chat pre or post game with other teammates... Like Jiggles for Wigglytuff, the Fire Ferret for Typhlosion, Cinder (or fire bunny) for Cinderace, Slash for Aegislash, Cer for Ceruledge, Snow Queen for Alolan Ninetails, Stoise for Blastoise, Meg for Meganium, the Dancing Duck or Quaqua for Quaquaval, etc etc.

And how can I forget CPs Lava Chicken!

Ah, but I don't talk to others in the game so I can't share my names... BLAAAZIKEN!!!

🔥🐓

DID SOMEONE CALL ME? 😁

LOL! yes yes LavaChicken aka CP.... 😎

MIDTERM COMPLETE!!!

Woohoo! Halfway finished! Congrats! 🎉🥳🎉

Thank you! I took yesterday off to rest but I'll be back at it today

Fun times.

For No Reason (Smiles)

😁

A smile is the best reason not s no reason (winks)

Typo: a (not s)

STARING INTENSIFIES!!!

Hee hee heeee..... I'm BAAAAA-AAAAACK!

HOORAY!!! I just woke up!

You were only online for a few minutes...

Oops... I got side tracked. I had just remembered that the solo battle mission matches (each worth 150 license points) was ending tomorrow so I jumped in there and played a few rounds. I'm halfway through and need to finish them later today or tomorrow.

Wait, wait, wait, WHAAAAA!?!?!? I didn't know about those! I gotta lock in and do them! (Also, you're fine!)

Yeah, I may have forgotten to mention them earlier. Also, I barely found out about them last week sometime. So go to a lobby, choose the "solo" mode, then select the Pikachu ship wheel thingy. That'll take you to a different solo limited time event. Yes, you earn and use aeos shooters for these matches. I've heard from a very reliable source, that the last match is very hard... due to the recommended 9k power needed. (First three matches, only 1k is recommended). You can do it!

I'll see if I will do it. I Just didn't really enjoy solo...

Anywho, how's your day going?

I am currently doing a back up of my laptop ... Just in case. 🙂

What does that mean?

That my laptop is old and I've already had to replace the battery once. No worries, @Hades0918 ! 🙂. This is a "better safe than sorry" type of thing. (I've lost a ton of data, pictures, music, game saves etc back when my PS3 had crashed, twice, a decade or so ago, so I know it happens. I just have been procrastinating and now seems like a good time to do so)

Oh, okay. Hope that goes well!

Thank you! 😁

Yes yes 🥺

Ummmmm the back up was unsuccessful.... It is a windows7 os that was previously upgraded to a windows10.... Hmmmmm I need to consult or in-house/forum expert, @MonstaDash !!

Typo: our (not or)

Me be chillin' 😎

Yes yes! Been there done that, I don't recommend the lack of sleep thing to anyone. Your mind gets fuzzy and words while talking tend to slip away before completing your sentences.... Yep.... I'm glad you got a rest in!

Wow, you nailed the experience!

Anyways, how has your day been, me friend?

IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT!!! And I don't think that they'd understand! When everything is made to be broken... I just want you to know who I am.

🎶 It's the eeend of the wooorld as we know it! And I feel fine🎶 (lol )

Huh. I don't know the one you're singing lol. Mine is a song I sing on my Dad's karaoke (from the PS2 so it's all older songs)

No worries, @PokeMom244 ! 😁. I actually need to apologize to you. While there, it seems I'm so focused on my builds that I haven't been very interactive. I'm not ignoring you, please don't think that. It's just...... I get so going because I'm not a fast builder, so I have been "off in my own world", lol. Feel free to talk with me anytime and if I can I'll respond. Ok?

Lol, I thought you actually had combined the two songs together on purpose 😁. Yep, I know them both, (at least a little bit) but the first song is the one that gets stuck in my head and it's more upbeat)

🎶and I doooon't want the wooorld to see me, because I doon't think they'd understand....🎶 (Yeah that's catchy too.)

I combined two songs!? Oops! I've always sung it that way lol

One is by R.E.M. and the other GooGooDolls.…

Huh. Welp, I still like my version! NEW SONG!!! I don't want to lose your love... TONNIIIIIIIiiiight!!! (I'm a wee bit everywhere today lol)

I FOUND THE REEEEASON FOR MEEEEEEEE to CHAnge who I used to beeeeeeeee

Nah don't apologize to me.

I get that! You good!

Gracias muchacha!!

So D how's ur day going?

Funny you should ask... 😁. I just saw something in TCGP 😉. Oh, and I'm thinking about Unite & minecrft. I'm disappointed they didn't have any cool Ceruledge or Zacian shirts on sale but, I did find an awesome Jiggles shirt which I'll actually wear even though there's pink, lol. How about you?

I've read this, btw. I don't have a response but I'm here

Hi "here" (the one who was formerly known as @Hades0918 , hee hee🤭)

YYESSSSSS D! YOU DID IT TO HIM!!!!

😁😎 (raises fist to you @PokeMom244 for a fist bump)

returns the fist bump happily

Oh! I didn't see you asked me!

I'm doing good!

Little tired, jamming to music right now lol

So "here" how are you today?

Oh, how the tables have turned... Anyways, I'm going great! Thanks for asking!

Wellllll, only three out of five of us were there for the first part.... which meant we didn't get to play. So we played quicks while waiting for everyone. We had already locked in our team roster and they don't allow substitutes so that was all we could do. THANKFULLY during the last half hour our missing teammates showed up and we had time for a couple of tournament rounds. I believe the team I was on meshes better the more we've been playing together (Same team for the past few tournaments). We don't use voice chat, but I play ranked with them individually at different times and all of us together have played casuals and quicks. Four of us were the first four in the squad CP started a while ago. Anyways, we ended up in close matches, one loss one win, so it was a wash. However, that gave us enough points to receive rewards of.... 3 Gold Emblems and 4,500 tickets each! So totally worth the time. Plus playing quicks ahead of actual tournament matches with CP and our other teammate, was fun! 🙂. (Thank you for asking, @Smellykiki )

Did you, a teammate, or an opponent use Quaquaval...?

Actually, not in the tournament, but as we were waiting, our friend (name starts with a C and isn't CP) had unlocked Quaquaval days ago via the gift exchange free trial so he danced around in Shivre city a few times. I had to join in the fun and went with my singing sparkly black dressed Jigglypuff and CP went with singing Skeledirge so we basically had a performing fighting troupe with ✨sparkles✨, flare, and flames at Shivre for a round of fun pretournament.

Gasp That sounds so fun! Got the beautiful duet with the fabulous dancer! What a great trio! I can't wait to get that duck… (I said that happily, trailing off as I imagine using him)

THANK YOU FOR THE CODE!!! You will find me in Casual or Quick tonight playing nothing but Quaquaval!

Screen shotted! You da best!

Thank you thank you! (I know a few more, would you like them? ... I have more sources 😉. Thanks CP and C and youtb)

I don't know what DBL is so I say the first 3

Hmmmm which ones do you play and enjoy the most? I would go that route to put on your favorite device assuming you leave about 3GB free for future updates (even though the updates are smaller than 3gb, the updater needs extra room to work properly). Then I would put the one you don't play as often on a secondary device. OR I would put the one that needs rhe most room on a secondary device. However, double check RAM specifications to make sure the older device can handle the more RAM intensive games. Hope that helps!

Ok since I dont have a Nintendo acc I wont delete TCGP Champs so ill put Unite on the spare device

Why you not online even once today?

I'm gonna take a moment to brag. I HAVE COMPLETED THE URSHIFU BATTLE PASS!!! The outfit looks SO GOOD!!!

AWESOME!!! You rock @Hades0918 ! 😎

I sincerely apologize, between Father's day, the tournament, and a big mining project I just had to finish (only halfway through), my online time has been used up by those things. I will be back tomorrow!! Hopefully first thing in the a.m. See you soon!

I've seen you around now! Hooray!

Hmmmmm I think Shakespeare would have said " where art thou?" (but I could be mistaken, it has been a while since I've read his old English style 😉)

unite tournament???

Shakespeare probably would have, but I needed to rhyme with "D" @fineasmatei yes, she has a post here in her page about it. I was trying to ask when it was because I wanted to join her team if I could make time for it but I never got a response...

It was on Father's Day. I'm sorry, you missed it fifi 🥺. It's an online in-game tournament, not at a location so anyone can form a team and play in it. You could have even been a "team" of one person (I've done that before) or a team of two to three people (I've done that too with CP). Those ones basically are like playing ranked where you get matched with random real people. I played this time on a team of 5 against another team of 5. That's where it gets tricky and challenging because I'm assuming everyone has played with their teammates before and/or they talk or know how each other play. All the matches are like the master level of ban/draft style. So you may not get to be who you want to play as. The team we were up against used Hoopa and a Dhelmise, which was different for me, but fortunately CP has played with our team as Hoopa many times and I'm very familiar with Dhelmise so they were easier to anticipate though still challenging. (I haven't seen too much of either of those being used in ranked lately).

Ah, okay. Well, next time there's a tournament I would like to know what the usual time amount is because if I can make it work I'd love to play with y'all (if you'd have me)

Oooohhhhh, I sincerely apologize @Hades0918 ! I tried to give everyone heads-up a few days ago.... Yeah, the times were listed in-game, but next tournament in four weeks I'll do better at posting times. Maybe I'll even make a reminder thread in the general or Unite section. (I still hesitate to post there for some strange reason... 😬, people are aggressive there in that section of the forums and that brings out my argumentative/defensive side). The team I'm on has been together for a while now. If anyone leaves or doesn't want to play in the next one I will definitely let you know! Funny, I remember making a post about allowing us to have a substitute list if teammates are no shows or back out at the last minute due to real life stuff.....

Tournament times vary but it's an open type format meaning your team can queue up for matchmaking anytime during the allotted hours. However, you may have to wait anywhere from mere seconds to over 15minutes for a matchmaking, then you go into the ban phase, then the picking/draft phase where I believe all licenses are unlocked! CP and I like to be there at the start so we can get as many matches in as possible or until we've all had enough, lol.

I read that post! Or, maybe I just read the title... Anyways, if there isn't room for me in the team that's fine. But if a spot does open them please do alert me!

✅ Add @Hades0918 to the waiting/substitute list of our in-game tournament team.

Got it! 😁. You're waitlisted for sure (at least in my mind)!! I'd definitely love to play with you on the team, so if there's an opening we'll ask you! 😎. (That's ok, right CP?)

Thank you! (Yes, make sure the others are cool with it, too)

(Of course, and Team Leader I'm pretty sure is cool with it, right CP? 😉)

Such a good idea!!!!!!

:) maybe we could play sometime!

( I know that this was a message to d, but I wanted to pop in. I'm sorry.)

Yay!!!! The UI (user interface) might take some getting used to though. Today's quick is Shivre and that's a fun one to get used to things on 🙂.

I sometimes use my attack in the wrong direction and I don't like that Basic attack immediately goes to nearby real opponent (for the Switch there's a button for opponents and another for NPCs when attacking) but other than that I really like it on mobile! It runs a lot smoother than the Switch.

Theres a button on switch to change??? I thougt only mobile had that. go to setings and enable advanced atacks i think its called

Yep, @fineasmatei is correct, @Hades0918 . Check out the gameplay settings... You can change a lot of things and customize it to your preferences.

I was just ingame, working my way up the ranked ladder... Still have a ways to go, but at least I'm over halfway done with Ultra.

i might play. mabye. wich ever your are in. also we should make a secret code whenever one of us is going to minecraft but we in unite

I don't have Unite chat. Anyways, I mean the Switch has two separate buttons for it. Press A to target the nearest enemy. Press B to target the nearest NPC. There's only one Basic Attack button on phone.

You can change the layouts of your buttons on screen to do what you're describing on mobiles.... Did you check the gameplay settings?

Oooooh... Not yet. Busy yesterday with time for two rounds. I've got a long drive soon so I'll do it then.

Safe travels!! 🚗

I didn't notice the little button to hit NPCs...

Its a setting to auto target wilds or opponents first. Also a different setup allows a little button with opponents icons to appear on your button side so you can pick which to auto target. (I dont use that). The cool thing is with the regular setup at least, you can still direct your attack by holding and slightly rotating your thumb towards that which you want to attack. Or just tap it to auto target per your set preferences.

Yeah I just the second smaller button so I can choose which to attack

@Hades0918 i meant the stickers you know? Do you have those?

No, I don't fineas. Also, to D, SUCH A CUTE OUTFIT!!! I love it! Also, I had a lot of fun! I ran out of Quaquaval dice... I have to wait two days for more! The saddest part is I'm literally 1 tile away from completing the first map! I decided to work a bit on Skeledirge and I think I'll be able to get it soon! Also, tell @Ember2026 I had fun with her, too! I don't know when she'll be online again, so...

Thank you, @Hades0918 for the compliments! I had fun too😁 ( @Ember2026 had posted to your wall but it's stuck in approval). My outfit is a blend of free stuff, the hat was from the asian championship (?) freebies, and my shoes/nylons from the Darkrai battle pass. Sometimes I'm just in a purple & black mood, ya know? 💜🖤

Great colors so I understand! I'll go see if her post is there, but I posted on her wall, too!

Ok!

Her comment is still nowhere to be found…

Ughhhh.... It may have been lost in the system (or sometimes it takes up to two days)

Knowing that this place has an actual "System" made me laugh reading that!

Just me, you, and @retoion right now... Oh, also, or did come through! But it wasn't on my profile... I found it in the Activity section! Should be the first comment on my wall now

(also there were 1,700 guest readers)

Go to "Submenu" then "friends" search them up and send

ok ill try

I'm logging into to Champions to see how it works! Also, I'll come back and give you my friend ID. After that I'll tell @PokeMom244

AWESOME!!! ummm i need to download it.... I only looked since I got busy in here and distracted.... 😁

Yeah, I need to log into my Nintendo Account so I can transfer over all my data to my phone. While it transfers I'll need to shower

Ok! Sounds like a plan!

BLAZIKEN IS NOW IN CHAMPIONS!!!

YAAAAY!!!!

It's asking for a Password for my Support ID, but I never made a password and it won't accept the Support ID by itself...

Could it be your Trainer account password? Or your switch acct password?

I've tried those...

Huh. I kinda realized it's been a while since you've commented on @PokeMom244 page. (I was just on it which is what made me realize it)

Oops. Thanks for the reminder! I keep thinking her's is private.

Thank you! (Want me to delete?) I haven't loaded it yet.... Need to do do asap..

(BTW, I like your reference to the song... I'm singing it in my head)

@Dragonfly102024 i knuw it wasnt only me who noticed that!

'cause you're awesome like that @fineasmatei ... Great minds think alike 😎

I was waiting for you to mention the song lol!

LOL, I was distracted by the "silence" so didn't mention it right away. Aaaaaaannnnd the song is back in my head again. Thanks😁

I am not sure if I had said this already but I have Chapms Mobile

I still haven't received a Friend Request… Did you send it? I'm asking so I know if something is wrong on my end

Ahhhh (whispering) I got side tracked and didn't download yet.... Will do so in just a bit. I wrote your number down and deleted it. My name will be my name, hopefully 🤞

Okay!

Whispering as well
Trust me D. I think you'll like it.

@PokeMom244! I accepted your request last night! It said you were online 0 hours ago but I think you were offline… We'll have to plan a time for us to play! Me, you, D, and @fineasmatei can hold our own little tournament since everyone else is always busy when we try to set up a big one. Have you two (PM and D) collected the Mega Dragonite and Mega Raichu stuff in the Mailbox?

im gona check later to see if my freind thing is still brocken

I hope it works!

I have!

Quite happy about that.

But yes we need to plan a time for sure!!!

SERIOUSLY!!! I NEED IT BUT I HAVE TO REMOVE THE ONLY 2 GAMES ON THE PHONE DRAGON BALL LEGANDS OR TCGP A VERT HARD DECISION

@fineasmatei , I was just in Google Play with CP and my phones. Turns out, my phone can get the download .... HOWEVER CP's phone cannot! 😕. They are doing something different with the details description where they will not tell us which Android os is compatible. It says "varies with device". She can't tell if the inability to download is due to s hardware issue or the Android os.

I actually just finished downloading it and was going to tell y'all once I get threw my tags. Does @Ember2026 maybe have an android tablet or an iPad? I think it might (MIGHT) be available on those, too. I'm sorry she can't get it yet if not!

She's got an Android 12 and is now contemplating a newer mobile or tablet just to play.

All Switch Pokémon games released so far have been for the Switch 1 (SV and Z-A have Switch 2 upgrades, but they're playable on the Switch 1 without them). WW (Winds/Waves) will be a Switch 2 exclusive.

Thanks UZ 👍

I would not know, I'm sorry. I do not own any Switches.

Wowza!

Yes yes! And you can get a sticker in Unite too!

But you have to enter a code in the gift exchange 🤫

NAIC2026 (all caps, that's the code)

does it still work today?

I think so? Also on the opening screen while logging in and loading Unite they mention some other freebies, but I don't see the link in game to watch like they used to do 😕.

Wait is D in the backgroung

LOL! No, I didn't go. I just play for fun 😎

Yup. It's hard to send her stuff because others have always already done it. Best to just try to set up a trade.

Thank you both! I appreciate the thought, seriously I do. Makes me smile and keeps this all fun and positive. 😁 Gracias!

Karibu since I can't spell Dinada (I know that was incorrect spelling lol)

Your very welcome

How was your day?

It was actually pretty good thank you!! How have you been today?

Pretty good!

:)

Today I've been working in the cliffs on the pig racing area.

Almost done!

HEEEEEEEELLLLLOOOOOOOOOO DUDETTES!!!

@Hades0918, Yo, homeboy! What's happ'n? 😎

Nothing much. Laying in bed before starting school for the day. You?

Sitting on the couch, trying to just stop by and say hi, but getting sucked into all that the forums is.... noooooooo.... must resist!...... or I will be here for waaaaaaay too long and not do what I need to do.....

"RESISTANCE IS FUTILE"

(Anyone know where/from what I first heard that quote? I'm curious if anyone knows without using google, search engines or AI)

I don't know it... Anyways, wish you luck!

Should I just say it? Hmmmmm.... I'll wait a bit and see if anyone happens to come upon my wall ....

twiddling thumbs while waiting extremely impatiently

Star "Truck" lol 🤭

oooOhhh! Twiddlefinger! I like that song! Probably an unintended reference though lol 😆

"Truck".....Hahahahahahaha 😂...thanks @Ember2026 , made me laugh.

Ugh. I forgot you were in here. Of course you know it 😉...

Ok, so next question which Star Trek and what was happening?

Twiddlefinger... Hahahaha.... Yep, unintentional. 😁

My dad loves Star Trek!

I was going to tell you to ask him too! Lol! Do do anyways, see if he remembers which episode and which series. Let's see how cool your dad is 😉

Oh, completely unrelated, I got the Battle Pass yesterday, and... I NOW HAVE BLAZIKEN!!! 🥳🥳🥳 Very different style than all the other Pokémon, so it's taking me a second to adjust to but he's fun! I just wish I could choose what fighting style gets which attacks... I want Blaze Kick and Fire Punch together and Focus Blast and Overheat together, but I can't do that. I'm sure I'll get the hang of it soon, though!

🎉🥳🎉. BLAZIKEN!!!! Awesome! Yeah, that's on my wish list along with Scyther... but I'm stuck at Leafeon which I also really want since I tried him during the festival. congrats!!

Thank you! And I know you can get them! What was your load out for Leafeon? I like to use Razor Leaf and Leaf Blade!

I think those were the two I liked also.... I'll have to tell you after I log in there today 🙂.

Sounds good!

Unfortunately he didn't catch it. He's in shock that he didn't! He says that he guess he didn't pay attention to who says what

"Resistance is Futile" is from Star Trek The Next Generation.… and the Borg. I think that was also when they first met Q (an all knowing creature who somehow made the Enterprise travel all the way out to uncharted space. That was so they could learn about the Borg, a lifeform that assimilates other humanoid species into its own and they become part of this huge hive mind type structure, or a collective.). The Borg travel in these huge cube "space ships" and are half machine. Hmmmm I wonder if any of that sounds familiar to your dad?

I'll ask him!

😁😎😁

I JUST GOT MY FIRST WIN AS BLAZIKEN!!! AND I was the MVP! I think I'm understanding how to properly switch between move sets

Insert alolan Ninetails "Nice!" sticker here

Yeah, then I got destroyed in the next game I played... I honestly think it's my teams. Every one I've been in doesn't seem to be in good cooperation and doing their own thing while the opponents are in sync, slaughtering us easily

I agree!!! That's why I say teamwork is super duper important! In ranked today, (I was trying to get more points before the nerfs tomorrow) I had the honor of playing a couple of solo queued random ban/draft style matches where we all just meshed, communicated, made a couple of mistakes sure but no one pouted (staying at home base, spamming "Thanks!", and/or calling for surrender every chance they could starting at the halfway point... I seriously dislike those trainers who do those things, ugh), and we totally worked as a team.... Now that. Was. Fun!
