I'm laddering under my alt AoPSpwnz-V, with my sun team based around Victini. From Team Preview I can see that this is a Sand team. I will have to keep Ninetales safe so I can sweep with Venusaur if needed, otherwise half my team is deadweight.

I see that he sends out Tyranitar. Most Tyranitar don't use Earthquake and he's probably expecting me to switch so he can set up Rocks for free. Well, I'm not falling for any of that crap. I will SR myself, since he doesn't have a Spinner.

Props and Slops:

Props:

-Victini's power, taking down the bulkiest Pokemon outside of sun with V-Create.
-My opponent, for putting up a nice battle.
-Chansey, for being my go-to wall.
-aesoft of Smogon, for making a Warstory Generator to format this!

Slops:

-Trying to Burn a paralyzed Tyranitar.
-Assuming Landorus wasn't Scarf. (Otherwise I wouldn't have sent out Starmie)

He took down a +1 Defense Conkeldurr and a Jellicent without Sun up with V-Create. Nothing more is needed.

For slops you should include you trying to burn tyranitar, other than that it was a good game with a few misplays
 
Another great comeback.

Why is blue?
This was fun to watch and read. Good job on this win. Seriously V-create is the reason Victini can win. Good job!
