I don't know which meta game YOU play in (probably OU), but I play NU and UU, where there is much more variety. Plus, people always expect my Amphy to be mega, and ice beam when it comes out, only to find that it is actually a normal Ampharos with HP grass and Focus Blast. Take that, Ice types! And take that, Carracosta! [S]Even though carracosta will live because of Study...[/s]

i did VGC a couple of times actually.  So yeah.  OU.  I actually came in second place once.  Won some cash, a trophy, and an invitation to the world championships, as well as two packs of playing cards.  Ended up not being able to go to the world championship though.  Sold the packs of cards to some guy to make another couple hundred bucks and went on my way XD.

Though after that i stopped caring and started using different pokemon on my team.  My favorite pokemon to use?? Quagsire. :D (he's so tanky and perfect i love him)
