Pokémon Gen 5 Tournament (Sign up inside)

Ahh. If someone in the battle was using (badly) hacked pokemon the video will refuse to record, such as having stats that they normally wouldn't be possible to have. The battle could have exceeded the time limit too, so it couldn't record the battle if it was too long. But if you were able to record it, then I'm not sure why it won't upload.

I was able to record and watch the video, but I was unable to upload it with the same error. I also know none of my pokemon were hacked, but I did transfer them over from soul silver just before the match. Coulda had some glitch in the transfer and caused errors.


*edit*
I did look through my pokemon and found out my porygon-z does have errors on it. I transferred it over from my soul silver, yet it says it was met on today's date rather than displaying the date it was created. I think this may be because I used two different firmwares on the 3DS's that I used.

Can you give me the text or code that the error says?

It could be a number of things, but can you view the battle from your vs recorder directly? Check that and see, if you're unable to view it from there, it was most likely a connection issue during the match, someones internet might've cut for a second.

I know neither of you used any illegal pokemon since you could record the video, so no rules have been broken. Just check your vs recorder, if you can play it, try uploading it then. If it still won't, I have no idea.


edit: I didn't see that you watched the video, sorry about that. I'm really not sure why it won't let either of you upload.

Yeah :/ My internet could have been the problem. Just last night around this time the main fiber line that my provider supplies to my area was cut and I was without power for hours (shoulda seen me yelling at my switch box cuz it wasn't saying the input signal was bad AND my ISP was not answering their phone till my 5th call). So it was likely my connection or my broken porygon. I just tested another transfer and I got the pokemon through normally with no errors.
 
I know how you feel with that. My power goes out constantly, I live up in the mountains and it storms pretty frequently, so trees tend to fall onto the lines and I end up not having power for a few days/weeks.

It's okay though, you made to the next round and maybe you'll be able to upload your upcoming battle.

edit: Just caught your edit, I bet that's what it was. Very ironic that a Porygon-Z would have errors, considering it's literally a pokemon that came to be due to a series of upgrading errors. lol

Hope fully, the other battles will correctly upload ;)

I got 2 badges in a day... Using only one pokemon... Well, I have Munna in The daycare.
I got my FC as well, but I am still weak. I still need to train my Pignite and Munna, so until I get to level 50 I will post my code up for future tourneys.
 
Sounds good, just keep at it.

There are still four days until all the results need to be in, so to those who have yet to battle, good luck!
 
I won in the match against Bacon Boy.
It was a good fight, had fun with it.
 
Yeah, at this point, I need to beat Burgh.

Good luck to you other peeps!

So I recently evolved Munna into Musharna... never guessed it would learn Hypnosis and Psybeam (currently useless against most Pokemon.)

Just need to train Musharna and Pignite 30 levels more until I can join >_>

As announced by the Pok?mon Global Link on September 7, the Global Link will go under extended maintenance from September 25 until October 3. During this time, none of the Global Link's service (which include the Pok?mon Dream World, Global Battle Union Wi-Fi Competitions, and Game Sync linking) will be available.

This won't affect our tournament, since we're not using any of those services to battle. The tournament should be over by that time, too. Just posting this incase anyone saw it.

Oh, really? Well, I don't use Dream World anymore ever since I restarted anyway.
 
I use the Dream World almost daily, mostly for growing berries. I really enjoyed growing berries in Ruby/Sapphire, and again in Diamond/Pearl. HG/SS depressed me with the berry pots though, I really liked planting my berries in the ground and coming back to get them.. personal preferences though, DW is a nice place for me to do that now.

Anyway. Just to keep the thread bumped so people can see it, we now have a group where you can take part in discussion and anything else related to Pkmn. We're just a few days away from entering into round two of our tournament. So far Andy and Fretless have won their round one battles, and will be going against each other in the upcoming round.

Myself and Jackal have yet to battle still, I keep getting distracted and forgetting to ask him.
 
I never really got too much into the whole berry growing thing. Back in the older versions I did love doing the whole talent/fashion show thing. I remember walking home from elementary school trying to get the best scores so I could brag to my friends the next day.
 
Just a reminder that we're drawing close to the end of Round 1. Need the results in sharp!

Still trying to contact Rover. Not sure if she was grounded or her net went out or what :( We'll do our best to battle in time for the end of round 1
 
Good job Jackal, took me out pretty quickly. XD

So I think we're extending the deadline to tomorrow so that Kaiaa and Rover can battle.

Yeah, given that it may be hard to get on during the week/with schoolwork etc. So hopefully tomorrow something can be done sharpish.
 
Raising Simisage and "that" Pokemon in the daycare

Almost at level 50, all of them are in the 20's.
 
I won against Kaiaa! It was fun. She's a great sport. Ok, move me up that chart :)
