Psyduck, Swanton1717, BigPoppaBeatdown, NEWMAN, ZAK and Mike H., that would be a team of 6 I would put up against ANY 6 players from any region of the country.
nikePK should be in that group.
I would take up your challenge, but I dont know many good players near me. There is plaidlesspez who lives like 2 hours away..I dont know any others.

no offense to the NikePK - but I am not sure he could break into my top 4 of Psyduck, Bigpoppa, NEWMAN and Swanton1717. The younger 2 players are nasty players in their own right, and I was tempted to have 2 10- and no 11-14, but there are a large group I could have chosen, and, heh, would I bring NikePK along as an alternate, or myself???

Yeah, you are right, probably him.

Fun to discuss - I would love to hear other areas ideas of their team of 6.

Hey Meganium!

I think that is a challenge we hear in Ohio cannot back down to in the least! I for one will step up to the plate in our team, and I think I can say theres a good chance that Tom Dolezal, Gymbo, and JediDrew will also help round out our team. As for the 10- and 11-14 players, I would like it if James Davis's kids would round out the team as they are hands down the best 10- and 11-14 players I have seen in AGES. I cannot vouch for anyone but me and Drew, but I am all up for it. And if your REALLY up to a challenge, take on Team NEO. I propose the team of Me, Scizor, Venusaur, YoungJohn06 Monkeyman and anyone else from our site who is willing to join in. Let me know on either challenge, ok? That is a really cool idea though dude, seriously. It should be fun!

I cannot speak for the Davis kids or even say they will be on the team, but yeah. Thats our accomplishments. Have fun finding any lone city that can top that one.

Box- Last I heard Chicago was getting 8 person turn outs. Jason and Alex left to play Poker and Magic. I won't argue that at all.
 
OK, Mudkip, NEO stands for North East Ohio - not deep South - and it is one of the STRONGEST play areas in the COUNTRY if not the world!

That would be a decent battle for the St. Louis players....maybe we can find time at Origins for something like this!

Box, no offense, there is noone in ChiTown that would hold a stick to Alex and Ness at this point. There are good players, but those 2 were on another level.

Heck, man, with you gone, what else would there be to chop through in Chicago?

I think their Gym Challenge is vulnerable to being invaded from Wisconsin and Missouri if they are not careful.

Talk to you all soon.

OK Megs, NEO is a forum! -___- god that was just a coincidence, but NEO as Chris says represents a forum... Chris was talking about the best worldwide team -____-

-MuD
 
Hmm

Meganium, when I referenced NEO I did indeed mean our Forum, Poke-Neo. The original forum was run by me and Trump Bunny for local players but has long since expanded to become the number one site for competitive gaming in terms of Pokemon. It would basically be a super team. I don't expect you would want to face us.

As for Origins that would be perfect. The Ohio team would be glad to accept any challengers. I can pretty much say Ohio is the hardest metagame right now in the world. I don't feel like I am being overconfident either. What would the rules for the 6 on 6 be? I suggest something along these lines...

Everyone takes 6 players. Everyone takes turns playing until they have faced every other player in a 2 out of three match play game. Record the win loss records. Such as 2-1, 2-0, etc. No time limits. We than compare those results. I have faith in our 10- and 11-14 players doing just fine vs 15+. Do you?
 
Chris don't forget my results lol.

10th Columbus Ohio Gym Challenge
1st KY SBZ AQ
1st KY SBZ SK
1st 15+ city champ dayton ohio
6th FAT (gencon)
7th SBZ AQ Dayton Ohio


Those are all my bigger tournaments... the gym Challenge was my first tournament ever.

Also.... as far as a team from just Ohio I'd put... Me, Chris, Chris Peters (other friend of mine... pretty good), Tom and then umm who ever Chris thinks is good lol.

Arhm... I've beaten Alex more times than I've lost to him... Granted, Alex/Jason were (are?) incredibly good players, but Chicago does have other quality players...

Not gonna happen, one of our players will win our Gym Challenge. I would be a bit more concerned about Missouri "invading", if St. Louis had any quality players besides yourself. :rolleyes:

Im in on Team Neo just for me being one of the original members. Im intrested in playing one of these City vs. City type things, hmmm Orgins?

My brother is 10- and would also want to join Team Neo, ask Dixon about his skill if you must know.

Go Neo!

tA
 
Ugh.

Meganium45 just wants for 6 people from a certain AREA..not FORUM..to play and see if the St. Louis people can compare.

I'm fine with playing whoever.

ALSO To go along with the whole theme of whos won more Zak the 10- from here has won 2 City Championships within the past couple of weeks? Can any of YOUR 10- compare with that? ya ok.

I have not won a lot so i'm not gonna boast about what I've done =P

~Colin
 
Colin- Yeah, I can definitely go by area if you guys are too afraid to face the NEO team of all stars ;)

And James Davis's son in 10 won 10- at Dayton and t8ed at the one in Delaware as well but James had him forfeit to give someone else the win even though he could have beaten him handily IMO. So yeah, I think that does qualify. Plus Stephen Davis is ranked 7th in the world global in constructed. Yeah.

I think Duece has a good chance at winning alot of events in Chicago too. I remember meeting him last year at Origins or Gen Con. Cool guy.

So yeah, meganium, expect to face an Ohio team at Origins. Now its MY open challenge. I say this much. Lets get a Pokegym team vs a NEO team. What do you guys say? I propose 7 vs 7. Seven of our players vs 7 of your players. Who is up for it? Let me know. We can put something on the line, or just bragging rights. Entirely up to you guys.
 
wow, i ignore this thread for like 2 weeks and look what happens to it....

well i guess since my name has been mentioned, i might as well say that i'm up for it..... :D

oh and vince, i think that we should include Dr. T as an alternate, because he seems to have that effect on others in which he makes them pay for past crimes in previous lives, like having run over young children or dogs...... wait, that effect only applies to me!!! D'OH....

well i am very confident in our team, but it would be interesting to see which son of yours that you would pick VINCE..... that's one argument that i wouldn't want to see.... lol

well off to class to go act like i'm learning......
 
Yeah, on a team of 7, with both sons having won 2 City Championships, it would be interesting.

Andrew is rated in the top 10 in the world now, and Zak is just plain silk at times (top 30 in the world). I would be damn tempted to drop the 11-14 rep, unless someone steps up in that division.

I would prefer a team of 6, nonetheless.

We will arrange this at origins...we will....
