Unofficial Consensus:Who are the best players?

[LeftiesWillRule]

Who are the best players here? It seems Lopez is, but he claimed he wasn't.

When you answer, feel free to use any format: (Ranks, Top 10, etc.) BUT! You must have battled the person, beaten someone who has beaten him, or lost to someone who has lost to that person. You may include yourself in the listing. You may have more than one person sharing the same ranking.

Disclaimer: this is not meant to be an official list, and may not accurately show the skill of the members of the NW Pokemon forum.

I am gonna post this link here and show you my response in that thread below:

There are a plethora of great trainers here and the list includes member such as:

Xenux
Lopez
Outlawed
Jimmy
Ray
Jima
NJSoccer
Greenthunder
SuperSonic
Temperance
Shwheelz
Nago
Xylez
Andrea
JCL
Jao
DustinR
Myself
Milkman
Knuckles (whom I have never battled but have heard is pretty damn good)
Dragonrage
Metazug (who doesn't frequent here anymore)
Hurley (as above)

The list is endless and apologies to those of you who I may have missed out, I am just reeling off names from the top of my head and I didn't leave you out intentionally And the list is in no order I might add.


All of whom are willing to take battles all the time (they are online of course!), because no-one is specified as "the best" because thats just not right, it causes friction amongest others who feel they are better. Everyone is classed and equal and 95% of that list, if you was to leave them a profile comment asking them for battle, they would certainly be more than willing to battle against you, all are tough trainers, all have different battle styles, all have different types and you know it's great battling each and every one of them because your always learning new things about yourself and others, making yourself a better trainer.

And if you wanna pick up more names about great trainers on here, go to the tournament threads and you'll find many different names of whom else would be considered a great trainer, because after all, we try not to create elitism here

The reason I am locking this is because you will not believe how many people get a bit agntsy about something like this in Pokemon and to be honest, I really don't want to have to spend an awful long time cleaning up the crap load of spam and BAAAW that this will create.

Brawl & MKWii (or DS) people are fine with having a top trainers list and what not. Pokemon, for me anyway and for the forseeible future, it isn't worth discussing or any form of argument that can and will follow it. For further proof have a look here
