It's noobs with Ubers. It's someone who goes into a 'quote' Standard battle with a full team of legendaries, six sets of Leftovers and taking me on when I feel like testing out an NU/UU team.
Got 4 of them in a row. FOUR OF THEM. Also, I'm pretty sure one of those battles, the freakin' guy spammed his Darkrai putting half my team to sleep at once. /rant.
Sorry about that, just had to get that off my chest.

Yeah, that pisses me off too. I d/c though and try and correct them haha. It's usually a fail attempt. That's why I use shoddy xD
Never again will I use Serebii for an OU battle.

Okay, was this a DS battle? If so, did you specify NO DAMN UBERS? If yes to both, then yes, that dude was a douche who deserves to be kicked in the balls. If you didn't specify no ubers, then you can't really complain.
If it was over PBR's Battle Someone, then, eehhh. It's true you can't specify no Ubers, but when you use Battle Someone, you understand that it's a grab bag. I think in that case, you can complain, but only a little bit, since you knew the risks.
Nothing personal~. I've seen a lot of people complain about battling against ubers and how unfair it was!!!!!1, but they either didn't specify no ubers, or thought they wouldn't go up against any in Battle Someone, so I'm a bit leery whenever someone else complains now. xD

You know what I think is more annoying? Playing PBR's Battle Someone and having your opponent forfeit the match when you're beating the stuffing out of them. I know it still counts as a win on your part, but I don't really think there's any excuse for such cowardice. I never give up when I know I'm losing...

Ds battle, yes. I guess in a sense, we're both at fault. I did however, specify by saying, "Standard Rules/Battle" which exludes the use of Ubers in the rules, Iirc. I guess I was wrong in assuming that they knew what they meant when agreeing to this after I sent that.
Lol, I should've learned my lesson after the first battle and just stated, "NO LEGENDARIES LOL" but that would've been slightly wrong so I just kinda let it happen. xD
And for the record; no offense taken. It just bugged me, is all.
@Slightly off topic: Just the other day before this whole thing, I got on wifi to give an IV battle to a friend of mine and someone else jumped on wifi and applied for my battle. I never agreed to battling him so I just fled. This guy also jumped in with an Uber set, his first poke was Arceus. >.> Has that ever happened to any of you guys? It kinda upset me that I had to give him a free victory, but I was helping out a friend of mine...

@Tiamat: I just laugh at those cases. But then I get a little frustrated, too, since there's nothing I can do to confront them about it. :/
@Silver: Yeah, a LOOOT of people don't think "Smogon's Standard Rules" when someone tells them "Standard Rules". I mean, to me "Standard Rules" is pretty much "Everything goes", since Everything Goes is my standard because I'm a dirty Double Team+Baton Pass spammer.

Yeah, I'm afraid shouting: "Get back here and fight me, you coward!" at the TV screen doesn't have the desired effect, it just makes people look at you funny... sweatdrop

I bet I could beat their whole team with just my Torterra and my Staravia alone. Maybe with my Luxio too if they have a fire type in there. But Legendaries are frequently overused. And THAT'S why they're so weak nowadays. stare

And THAT'S why they're so weak nowadays. stare Legendaries are not weak. Maybe if you use freshly-caught, untrained legendaries, yes. But legendaries are "overused" because they are such massive powerhouses when IV SR'd and EV trained right. People who use legendaries when it was clearly stated NO LEGENDARIES? Yes, they are major douches. But this retarded "OMG LEGENDARIES R CHEEP!!!1" mindset comes from a few people butthurt by having been whooped fair and square by a legendary team, and then the rest of the fandom mindlessly parroting their opinion. Anti-legendary is the new green is the new black. :/

I should make an Uber team but I'm too lazy to even try. Haha.
I prefer the OU game, because then the pokemon I actually like stand a chance. Haha. The only legendary pokemon I like are Ho-Oh and Lugia.
Tippy, do you think Garchomp deserved to be Uber?

Ouch at the Double Team+Baton Pass combo. I've seen that destroy an entire team with almost no resistance. D:

Zoeloveful Uh... Do you seriously have to insult my every post? Seriously? Erm... She wasn't insulting it. So she has a different opinion and look on the subject. That doesn't mean she's attacking you in anyway. If you really take a debate so personally, then perhaps you should just keep quiet. Not everyone is going to agree with what you have to say, or like it, for that matter. Just keep in mind that she's not insulting you, or even your post for that matter. She's simply stating what she feels, as of what you've done as well. I may not be a mod, or anyone of importance for that matter, seeing as I'm a newbie here myself, but I think everyone/close to everyone can agree with me that you seem to take this much too personally and don't see what people are really trying to say to you. And, please, correct me if I took this the wrong way.
Sorry, but I couldn't help myself anymore. -_-;

Sorry, but I couldn't help myself anymore. -_-;I don't. I know everyone has a different opinion and a different view of things but that's not what I was talking about. I'm ok with people giving their opinions on what I say and all that but I was just getting irritated with the fact that she's been following my posts and basically knocking them for whatever reason she can come up with. Either she knows me in rl and despises me, or she has a problem with me that's dumb but personal.
