What if we put two major old-gen YouTube titans head to head in an OU Fight Night for a Best of 5 multi-generational series?
Join us on December 29th 2023 where the Scourge of Iron Mugulis Jimothy Cool and Old Gen Legend BKC duke it out for OU's 3rd ever Fight Night!!
people upset about the sleep ban who just never said anything over the past 3-4 weeks it's been publicly discussed, why did u not (when your voice had the opportunity to weigh into our decision) with the full knowledge that the council was going to take some form of action on it?
ou has no grand plan to make stall the only viable archetype. ou has no grand plan to make every gen of pokemon play the same. we make bans and discussion to create a balanced metagame that gives players as much control to win with their own skill as possible. chill out guys haha
HELLO!!
are you interested in working on this pmd explorers of sky mod? currently progress is going great but we definitely think having some extra animators would be fantastic. ideally those able to use adobe animate! dm if interested and please share examples of your work! :>
🧵 Extremely disappointed with the support system provided by
@discord
. Multiple staff members of Smogon - a partner server - have been banned for being COPPA illegal, myself included. No responses to tickets. We are adults, and our accounts are risking deletion in 2 weeks.
artist here, having ai art itself be the center of a joke is not harmful so long as it doesn’t steal from artists. it can be a way to make fun of ai art and bring us together
don’t target the dr mario meme, target the dipshits exploiting ai to rob from artists for personal gain
@NathanlikesYT
anticipation for the home meta is a pretty big factor imo, esp with how excited people are for the new, currently inaccessible additions of the hisuian pokemon in other formats
us midwest has made their debut for this year of smogon's wcop, and i'm managing (and drew our logo)! we're also invincible because we have pmd explorers theming.
check us out here:
a reminder to the pokemon community that gender and gender identity =/= sex assigned at birth. yes, you can change your gender, as it is a social construct and arbitrary by nature. never be afraid to be yourself
for those concerned: i just got discharged from the er. looks like i have a concussion but i have no fractures or evident internal bleeding, so im mostly ok! just gonna rest up and recuperate. ty for the support
The harassment toward finch as well as the rest of the council is blatantly unacceptable. It's one thing to be upset about our decision and the reasons it was made, but it's another to vehemently attack and bully people over a fucking fanmade Pokemon format
this is something i hear a lot, so i wanted to bust this myth abt my elo
i played on my main a bit until i started getting more actively recognized, and in general when i play i just want to play. i ladder on alts and hover around the 1700-1900s on average.
giving transphobic gimmick accounts attention is a huge reason they keep spiking in popularity. they are sad basement dwellers who thrive off of negativity and attention. deprive them of your energy by being your best self and not paying them any mind
i have a boyfriend who is transmasc and several extremely close friends who are transmasc and experience similar levels of discrimination as cis women and transfems. the hatterene series should be geared toward non-cis men as a whole to unify discriminated groups in general, imo
@MrMister281
because trans men face discrimination as well. thus we insist that the hatterene series should be for all trans people rather than excluding trans men and transmascs
general disclaimer for suspect-doers: do not beat yourself up for struggling with getting suspect reqs. it really can be frustrating and hard especially with how much time it can take sometimes!!! be sure to step away if you're getting heated. take care of urselves
the interesting but also very sad thing about roaring moon is that non-dragon dance sets are actually so cool and a welcome presence in the tier imo, but dragon dance is just so polarizing and potent that it just offsets that unique set variety so hard. it's like edgy magearna
Today, Tobi (my cat of 17 years) was put down after having debilitating abdominal issues and cancer. She was my everything, a complete sweetheart who would always love me unconditionally and be there for me even at my worst. I will never forget her and what she’s done for me.
