I jumped back and forth your and Uzi's perspective and this match was so much fun! I think we all have our readjustment periods coming back to something, especially when that thing is not exactly the same as when we last left it off. Personally speaking, I'm still having a good time watching your matches and I'm excited to see how far you'll go this season.
Yeah, your hind sight reflection is what I was yelling at my screen. Rapid spin with sandslash before stealth rock. Not using sucker punch with honch and should've night slashed on haunter.
Hi Cal, good effort once again! As you said yourself in the hindsight section, overprediction seems to really bite you in the ass the most. Even though I understand it might be hard to surpress the urge to overpredict, I think you could've made some amazing plays this match if you went for the simpler/safer plays. Anyways, enough of my rambling, I already can't wait to see the next battle next week and good luck with the rest of the competition!!!
Great battle and great hindsight Henry section stay strong for the playoff push! I got really inspired and excited when you mentioned joining future drafts and continuing to practice and get your mojo back! Keep up all the good you do!
Cal keep your head up. All things aside, you are a great pokemon battler, like top tier. I think youre just putting too much emphasis on draft and letting yourself be more timid and overthink..just flow bro. Let your skills naturally be
So for playoffs, a lot of the time 4-4 will get u in with good differential. there have been times that even someone 3-5 has made it bc their differential was really good so you def still have a chance to make it, even without winning out from here
I don't know if that would've changed the outcome, but after being given a Choice Scarf against a _very_ physically frail Pokémon + two Dark resists, I don't really understand locking yourself into Night Slash over Brave Bird. Simple mistake from another instance of "playing too fast", or taking into account some factor I'm missing? Concern over the recoil damage, perhaps? Either way, down but not out. We'll get 'em eventually 💪
I know you dont have time. But if youre going to do this. Go talk to shady. You both are overthinkers and he can help you stop that switch bug you have. If not let ya homie run the team and go ahead and bow out, no shame in that. No one likes playing against someone not really in it, they cant get better.
I think if you locked yourself into Brave Bird on his Haunter trick, you had a really solid chance to win
You’re honestly really close in all your games this season, I’m confident you can make a comeback this season!

Another week another close battle, your battles are always so entertaining to watch
Well, it ended up not being a bad end result, but it sucks that you got the para on Rapid Spin. You can still make a comeback, trust.
it's never too late for a comeback
BELIEVERS RISE UP
Somebody take away my boy's ability to change out pokemon as much 😅
Just stay in more and you'll do more damage! Great fight
Tough matchup, good battle though.
Thank you!

k we might need a spoiler shield
Why don't you make some trades for some proper hazard removal?
There arent many good options that fit my team unfortunately
What is the music during the battle? It sounds familiar to me but I don't know where it is from.
Callum you gotta make some better plays man I wanna see you in playoffs plz 😭
What status does knock off and brave bird give?
The 2 people I wanted to win didn't sadge rip nexus and cal
I know you dont have time.
