[b]Guide to the Metagame and Prediction[/b] This is a guide to the Omega Metagame. It is NOT for looking up BM strategies or Livebattle movesets. [b]Introduction: Competitive Pokemon[/b] Alright, I guess you want to know: what is the Metagame? Simply put, the Metagame is the competitive part of Pokemon, ranging from tournaments to... tournaments. This is a guide on basically how to WIN, and how do it consistently. Competitive Pokemon first started in 1996, when the game first came out. Most casual fans picked up the games and went through it, enjoying the adventure and thrill of their first Pokemon journey. However, certain players saw strategies, combinations of moves, typing, and mechanics that led to a higher level of …show more content…
So if they switch out... [b]Prediction[/b] What is prediction? It’s not gazing into the future with a crystal ball (unless you are a gypsy). Prediction in the Pokemon metagame is when you make an educated guess on what your opponent’s next move is, and you prepare for it. Take the example I’ve been using so far. You have an Infernape out against Swampert. Infernape nearly stands ZERO chance against Swampert on Omega. So you opt to switch out, and you decide to go with Venusaur, a Grass-type, which resists Swampert’s Ground and Water moves. Your opponent hits you with Surf, which doesn’t do anything against Venusaur, because you switched out. Now comes the prediction part. If Venusaur uses a Grass-type move, which is 4x effective against a Water/Ground Pokemon, that’s basically a guaranteed KO. Assuming your opponent isn’t stupid (if he/she is stupid, then don’t even read this guide, because you’re going to win regardless), he knows that. And he’s going to switch out. But what will he switch to? Well, let’s see. This is a 3 on 3 battle. You have Infernape, Venusaur, and Dugtrio. Your opponent has Swampert, Whimsicott, and Typhlosion. Which of those three Pokemon your opponent has would be able to take a Grass-type move from Venusaur and then kill it? If you answered the Fire-type Typhlosion, you would be right. So you decide to take the educated guess that your opponent will switch to
their old friend Professor Oak. It had been a long time since they last spoke to each other. As they neared the house, Ash could see Oak 's lab in the horizon. Whack! Ash was knocked forward by a sprinting figure with spiky hair who was also on his way to Professor Oak’s. The boy looked back and said, “Later, Ash”. It was Gary Oak, the professor’s grandson, and not one of Ash’s favorite people. Ash never liked the way Gary bragged. He seemed untrustworthy to Ash. “Hey, Gary!” Ash yelled as he started running after him. Ash wanted Gary to stop and answer some questions. When they both arrived at the doorstep of Professor Oak’s lab, Gary rushed in saying he couldn’t wait to tell his grandfather about meeting one of the four elite members the Pokemon League from Kalos Region. Ash asked which member it was. Gary said, “I don’t know, but his Pokemon were water types.” “It must have been Siebold,” Ash said in a perky voice and starting to feel excited for Gary. It’s not everyday that someone has the honor of meeting one of the elite. Ash said, “I wondered where he went after I beat him. So, yeah, I 'm the new champion of the Kalos region. That’s why I came to visit your grandfather, to tell him. ” From across the room came the sound of the professor’s voice. “I heard there was a new champion in Kalos, I just
Prediction – making educated guesses; guessing about thoughts, events, outcomes, and conclusions. Predictions are confirmed or denied, and the reader makes new predictions.
* Predict: Offering predictions (or hypotheses) about how a given condition or set of conditions will affect
Fortune-telling- You predict the future negatively: things will get worse, or there is danger ahead.
Pokemon can be bred by leaving two Pokemon in the same Egg Group at the Pokemon Day Care. Egg groups are groups of Pokemon which can breed with each other. The exceptions to this are the Undiscovered Egg Group, containing mostly legendaries and baby Pokemon, and the Ditto Egg Group; Ditto cannot breed with itself. A Pokemon may belong in two eggs groups, meaning it can breed with Pokemon from both groups.
A form of predicting near future events based on available data, statistical analysis, and artificial intelligence.
In the poem “Harlem”, Langston Hughes uses literary devices to portray the African-American community as oppressed, however, strong-willed people, with the intention to warn those in power of a revolution. First of all, the African-American community is depicted to be oppressed as Hughes uses similes throughout the poem. Namely, when their dreams are compared to something “sag[ging] like a heavy load”; the line represents how an unpursued desire can emotionally feel like it is weighing you down. Especially when it is against one’s power whether or not they may follow their own ambitions due to racial injustice. On the other hand, Langston uses a metaphor to illustrate how the people of colour may also be strong-willed. The poem ends by asking
In the game, you must battle trainers and defeat the elite four and champion, along with your rival while stopping evil villains from trying to destroy the world. It is practically impossible to defeat every trainer and Pokemon you encounter without losing, especially the elite four and champion since they are the strongest. This means that you are going to lose, but it’s not the end of everything. Even in real life, things won't go smoothly, as much as we hope it does, but it has helped me learn how to bounce back from such setbacks and showed me that I must keep on doing my best or I won’t be able to achieve my ultimate goal, whether it’s becoming champion and being the best Pokemon trainer, or getting my dream job and becoming a detective or F.B.I agent. If I don’t push myself to overcome these obstacles, I’ll never get anywhere. It has also taught me to be prepared for anything. The game has multiple types for both Pokemon and their moves, and even abilities can affect a battle, which means I need to strategize if I want to be able to win. If I don’t quickly think on my feet, I’ll lose the battle. This has helped me in life by teaching me how to create a strategy in order to achieve my goals, while not thinking too far ahead that I lose myself or others in the
Some think that kids should go out for competitive sports, but others say that kids should not go out for competitive sports. Overall it should not be a thing because people take the risk of getting a fatal injury from competitive. This doesn’t sound like a good thing but many are taking a risk with most sports having contact with one another. Many players often get injuries or have a chance of getting a concussion. There are also other ways to get physically fit or eating healthy by not taking the risk of any minor or major injuries and just choosing to be healthy. The cost is also a big factor in doing competitive sports because you may have to spend a lot of money on equipment or lessons.
When did all of this start in America? According to Hilary Friedman of The Atlantic, it started about one hundred years ago in the streets of the big cities. Most of the first participants were poor or immigrant children that were not in school and were simply filling time by starting games and keeping themselves occupied. Those of a more fortunate means were typically engaged in music, dance, or other non-competitive activities. Friedman continues to explain that there began to be a concern for these youth and that they needed good examples to teach them “American” values of cooperation, hard work, and respect for authority. So, in 1903 New York City’s Public School Athletic League for
Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck follows the lives of George and Lennie, two young men traveling in the Salinas Valley of California in search of their next job on a ranch. Upon their arrival, their world and dreams of working hard to achieve a free life on their own farm soon dissipates after certain events do not fall in their favor. However, their friendship proves as a powerful component in the driving of their story despite the circumstances. In Todd May’s research in the article “Friendship in the Age of Economics”, according to Aristotle, among the people in the world there lies “...three types of friendship: those of pleasure, those of usefulness, true friendship”(May). In the novel Lennie and George share all three types of camaraderie,

Forecasting involves using past data to generate a number, set of numbers, or scenario that corresponds to a future occurrence. It is absolutely essential to short-range and long-range planning.

First it must be noted, that no forecasting technique can be certain, however, they can come close to a possible, preferable, or probable future. Second, the further into the future the predictions the higher the uncertainty of the forecast (Gordon, 2009). The reason for greater uncertainty is the possible of a wild card or black swam event happening that would be a total surprise and have a major effect on the long term
