Comments about the match: That Shuckle definitely ruined me. Made me wish I still had an entry hazard user; it's ironic that I say that, because I USED to... but never saw entry hazards when I had something to clear them away. Saw no point, and yet since then, most, if not all, of my battles have had at least Stealth Rock up. I also made a poor decision against Zapdos, and realized I'd come to regret the decision I'd made to sacrifice that one thing I shouldn't have. :/ Still, GG.
Please edit out the name of the Pokemon I used. ^^; I don't think there's a hard rule against it, but I'd rather not give other potential challengers a small amount of insight as to who/what's on my team before they challenge me. XD
I just wish I'd been a bit smarter on Zapdos. Slowing it down was a good idea - worked to my advantage, I guess - but that battle would have gone very differently if switches had been made. :/ Not saying I'd have won, but it wouldn't have been over quite so fast. XD

Your motivation: To give this league its first champ!
Preferred battle style(s): Singles. But I have good practice with VGC rules regarding doubles since I've competed in the Pokemon Championships for about 5 years now!
Hello! I'm Kody! Are there any other challengers in this league so far?

You will not be disappointed when if/when you do battle him. I was decisively wrecked by the team he chose for the Fire Gym. ^^; He also seems to have the drive to actually go all the way, so he may just make it. ^^ I'd be surprised if he doesn't, personally.

Comments about the match: Really was not prepared for the Azumarill. Aqua Jet somehow destroyed my entire team even without super effective hits.
(P.S, sorry for posting twice)
Yes he did beat me. It was a good battle and a learning experience. Like Yukomov said that Shuckle is devastating. Definitely earned the badge.
I know Wego I felt the same. I only had one Pokemon who was weak against aqua jet but somehow it KO'd everything including some powerful Pokemon like Hydreigon. My team got knocked out right away. The Shuckle was very annoying as well. I had to hit it twice with earthquake and once with dragon rush to finally remove it.
active post, I love my azumarril have 5/6 of those competitive bred, I never actually thought of breeding a shuckel :/ maybe I will after I get done breeding my girafrige, lantern and snivy , anyways as for dragon gym, I have the 4 dragons bred, now its just finding the 2 right pokemon to help balance the team, why I am breeding lantern and girafrige lol see how they work, will open hopfully eventually last 23 balance pokemon just didn't cut it... need to beable to switch out to a pokemon that can handle fairies and ice types with ease and yet is bulky enough to take a hitWhat just happened with that my god I think you gym leaders should not take this challenger lightly or you guys will regret it.
