"DS" "Battle" 192 / Antar [Gen III Contest] vs. Maogiitawa / Rolls Like Thunder
Channel: Antar1011
Date: 2013-10-05

Been wanting to do one of these forever. I can't believe I finally got the chance.

Here's a link to my opponent's channel. Incredible person. Cannot believe he agreed to have a contest: http://www.youtube.com/user/maogiitawa

And here's a guide to Gen III Pokemon contests for the uninitiated: http://www.gamefaqs.com/gba/921905-pokemon-emerald-version/faqs/22585

The music was the RSE contest theme redone in the HGSS "sound font" (whatever that means). Here's the source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvU5E5ShI2g

With this upload, I am formally doing away with the concept of "update cycles." For those of you who never realized, I'm actually extremely methodical about the order in which I upload battles, and it used to be I was extremely regimented in when I introduced new teams. If you look back at the history of my DS battles, you'll notice the progression went:

1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-3
1-2-3-1-2-3-4
1-2-3-4-1-2-3-4-5

Then I retired one of my teams, and it got a little more convoluted, but the idea of introducing new teams only on the "squareds" (9,16,25,36,...) held up until Battle 100, at which point I decided to go from 10 to 12, and then later from 12 to 16, where I currently stand. Sixteen teams is far too many Gen V teams to support going into Gen VI, so before I took my massive hiatus, I retired a bunch in preparation for giving up the idea of regimented "update cycles" altogether in favor of posting whatever the hell battles I want.

So what will I post next? Will it be another battle with my "Sydney" team? Who the heck knows? (Probably not--I actually still have plans up to Battle 200, but THAT'S BESIDE THE POINT, THE RAMBLING, INCOHERENT POINT!)

Anyway, if you followed all of that, I'm impressed. tl;dr--I'll be posting whatever the hell I feel like next. Bear with me.

I also have exciting plans for Gen VI, but so far Japan has been screwing me over, so I don't want to talk about it right now.
