• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Pokémon Registration Office

    Re: Pokémon Registration Office Hey, I got an evolution. Updating an existing signature attribute, changes bolded. [Tomas] Manectric (M) Static Body Modification: Blue-Eyed Blind Trainers like shiny Pokemon. This much is clear: whether from the slightly boosted stats or merely their rarity...

    The Challenge Board

    If this was referring to me, then one of my battles just ended, so I should have an open slot. But in any event, dropping the challenge I posted above.

    Okay, that's fine. Thanks for letting me know.

    Great match, Barubu. And Metalica, thanks, as well, for reffing all this. It's been a year and 28 days, but it's done! (And I like probability.)

    Pathos vs ole_schooler

    ARG you are too close to being KOed Sab, that means it's NAP TIEM! Yawn right in Boom's face, then take your own advice and Rest. After that, Chill while you sleep. Since Taunt only lasts three actions, that should work, right? If you're taunted for an extra action because I'm a derp face...

    Barubu vs. ole_schooler

    I see how it is. Gonna just Facade till we fall asleep, is that it? Well, Tomas, you know what they say: give the people what they want. Shock Wave every action until you get hit. Once the Pidgey manages to break through it's paralysis, take a nap and Rest. If you have a spare action...

    Belgrade vs ole_schooler (ref: Negrek)

    Alright. Keep at that Thunder Wave until it takes, little buddy. After that, give the squirrel a taste of it's own medicine with Gunk Shot until you get a poison effect. If by some miracle you have an action remaining, Chill to get rid of some paralysis of your own. Should you smell a...

    Barubu vs. ole_schooler

    Looks like that Pidgey just got *puts on sunglasses* Thunder-struck. (Bad puns aside, I did know there was a chance for Tomas to miss with Thunder. It's just his chance to miss now is roughly what a normal miss chance for Thunder would be, and significantly better than if he'd been using...

    Barubu vs. ole_schooler

    Heh, I was wondering if you forgot. :D And you're right, the odds don't increase for subsequent rounds, but the odds of not rolling within that 2% over twelve rounds are (98/100)^12, which is roughly 78%. To use your die example, the odds of rolling sixes four times in a row is 1/1296, but the...

    Barubu vs. ole_schooler

    You know, with the length of this match, I'm a bit surprised there have been no eraser attacks. Admittedly, there's only a 22% chance of a single hit within 12 rounds, but it's getting closer and closer to the point where, statistically, somebody's gotta get hit. (Okay, so it only gets to 50%...

    Byrus vs ole_schooler

    Who dares to send a canine against the dog team of doom?! Clearly, we must show our superiority! Ace, Jekyll, do your thing! (Also, thanks, Zhorken, for reffing this. I know double battles can be a pain to figure out.) So, we're all starting in the tiny room in the center, yeah? I'm gonna...

    Pathos vs ole_schooler

    Sab, you missed? How could you miss, she was two feet in front of you! Well, good job with the crit, at least; made that a bit less energy-intensive. I really don't like that your foe is still faster than you, but we can make it word: for the first two actions, if you've been hit, give her...

    Barubu vs. ole_schooler

    Second verse, same as the first, a little bit more effective and a little bit worse! (For purposes of XP, would both pokemon get 2, or 1, for the double KO?) Tomas, it's a go for you. Pound out a Charge Beam with a Thunderbolt chaser. If those both hit, sit back and chill; otherwise, go for...

    The Suggestion Box

    Perhaps the award system could be changed to getting free pokemon based on rounds reffed, rather than battles? I don't have any stake in this, but it might be a fairer way of doing awards. It avoids the problems of the previous system, as well as letting it take less long to accrue rewards (if...

    Barubu vs. ole_schooler

    I would like a redo, as well. (I mean, there's about a 1% chance Sabriel takes Kaemelotte out with her, but it's still a chance, right?)

    Pathos vs ole_schooler

    Well, Sab, I have a thought. That Onix is very large, and you are very small. And its substitute appears to be mostly made of dirt. Here's what I'd like you to do: Find the largest bit of the substitute, and Dig into it. Your foe should do one of two things: destroy its own substitute to get...

    Barubu vs. ole_schooler

    ...Dammit. This is what I get for using the previous round's energy value instead of this round's. And not looking at the restrictions. I am the foolish. Well, let's avoid as much time warpin as possible and send out Tomas. Shock Wave until he's down. If he's dug or is Protecting, use...

    Barubu vs. ole_schooler

    Boring finale ahoy! One Venoshock shouldn't kill you (unless there's critical hax) so take a well-deserved Rest, then Sleep Talk twice. If the attacks don't kill him, the poison or energy deprivation will. (I hope...) Rest~Sleep Talk~Sleep Talk

    Pathos vs ole_schooler

    Ack, now I have that stupid song about boom and wanting someone in your room stuck in my head. Curse you and your nicknaming! Alright, Sabriel, time to get moving. Sadly, between your foe's typing, ability, and equipped item, you're going to have a tough time wearing them down, but you're a...
