Theoretically, you use it in doubles--two on two, where heal pulse is used to recover your second pokemon's health.

For a better cheap trick, a max speed Lucario with the moves Roar and Copycat. You use a different pokemon to setup Stealth Rocks, which damage the opponents pokemon every time they switch a new pokemon in. Then you send in your lucario and use Roar, a move that forces the opponent to switch pokemon. Normally Roar is a terrible move because it has a negative priority, meaning the other person always gets to attack first before they are forced into switching. That's where the move Copycat comes in, a move that will use whatever move was used last. Since roar always happens last and forces the opponent to switch out it means next turn you can use copycat on your own move. The thing is the copycat doesn't replicate the priority of the move, meaning the copycat roar will happen with normal priority. Then you just keep using the copycat roar to force your opponent to switch out over and over getting hurt by stealth rocks each time until all their pokemon have fainted.

The Minecraft Hunger Games server is taken over and utterly annihilated by Team Avolition. Over 100 people were present as they were all tortured in spawn and stayed to have explosive eggs thrown at them and the spawn area defaced.

Lifted from the gamers.txt thread. Let's take a break from in-game griefing and have a look at some industry griefing instead. Highlights from the terrible VGX awards show, featuring jokes by Joel McHale that were made at the expense of Geoff Keighley and the entire dumb event https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbLEz8jVKDU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaCso_b_PtY Viacom has started pulling some of the videos, so get it while it's hot

I'd really, REALLY hate for AVO to decide to grief I server I owned or played on, but I've never not laughed at their videos. They're a walking testament of "secure your poo poo and don't be a dick to people (and don't be Reddit) and this poo poo will not happen to you".

All I can imagine is some of the people who would really care about videogame award shows reusing Joel McHales's jokes without understanding what makes them funny, so they end up talking for half an hour debating the existence of the female orgasm.

Reading this out context, I assumed he was referring to some sort of multi-layered doritos dip that he was shilling during the show, nad Jeff was mocking. I'm fine with it either way.

In a similar vein, if we're talking real life griefing, this is always my favorite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yC6TbH_Yzd4 Norm MacDonald at the Espys. That man is my king. Listen to that crowd, and look at those reactions.

Yeah, it's the same reason the Golden Globes brought back Ricky Gervais: if the host notoriously doesn't give a gently caress, it gives people a reason to tune in to see them poo poo on the awards show, and puts more viewers, however morbidly inclined, in the chair.

Here's one little secret the comedy industry doesn't want you to know about: Sometimes people will act like they aren't in on the joke, or the joke is at their expense, because it's funnier that way. It's called playing the "straight man". These people hiring Joel are aware that he is going to make fun of them, because they understand the concept of "comedy", and know that people enjoy watching it.
