Minor quibble: Obama is left-handed. Probably looks best this way, though.

It's possible he releases pokemon like Giovanni. He wouldn't need his dominant hand for that.

      Romney would buy 6 versions of R/B and trade himself a team of six Mewtwos after his latina maids finish the game and grind them to level 100.

      No he doesn't believe in cloning, so he could only use mew.

      Romney would flip flop so that he could use Mewtwo.

      [–]KingNick 4 points5 points ago

      Romney would buy a GameShark and tell all the kids at Books-a-Million that it was a GameBoy Battery Extender so that he could get in Pokemon Battles with them, steal their Pokemon, pull the cord out and run away.

      Bastard. He'll never get my vote.

      [–]StarkPR 2 points3 points ago

      Child: But.. but Mister Romney, you can just buy better Pokemon.

      Romney: It's not about that, it's about good business practice. These Pokemon are going to China to work in a sweatshop.

      [–]kyouteki 2 points3 points ago

      Then they will get destroyed by any dark type ever

      [–]docmedic 19 points20 points ago

      R/B had no dark types. If you want a type advantage, there's Beedrill's twin needle and Jolteon's Pin Missile. :/

      [–]skytro 5 points6 points ago

      Right, forgot about that

      [–]Careful_Houndoom 7 points8 points ago

      Species Clause?

      Fuck it. All the clauses.

      • Species Clause
      • OHKO Clause
      • Sleep Clause
      • Evasion Clause
      • Moody Clause
      • Swift Swim + Drizzle ban.
      • Shellpass ban.
      • No perm-weather.

      And just to make things interesting, the only Pokemon they are allowed are used less than 1% of the time in the Never Used Tier.

      Wonder what those battles would be like?

      [–]Dyl9 10 points11 points ago

      Most OU Pokemon are used 0% of the time in NU

      [–]kabuto_mushi 5 points6 points ago

      Shellpass ban

      I've been out of the competitive scene for awhile... is baton passing Shell Smash really banned now?

      [–]Careful_Houndoom 5 points6 points ago

      Only in RU and NU.

      [–]Ziama 1 point2 points ago

      Drizzle is a metaphors for pot? Banned because people are afraid of it?

      [–]Frankeh 3 points4 points ago

      grind them to level 100.

      I remember just repeatedly going through the elite four with only my Pikachu to get it up to level 99. It could beat rock pokemon because it knew surf.

        Which version is better? It doesn't matter; they're both more hassle than they're worth. You may have better luck with the Special Edition Independent Yellow version, though.

        What do you imagine their teams looking like?

        [–]studmuffffffin 129 points130 points ago

        Obama:

        Girafarig (Kinda looks like a donkey. The most donkey looking one.)

        Blissey (Healthcare)

        Venusaur (Environment)

        Luvdisc (Gay Rights)

        Jynx (Obama's Wife)

        Mewtwo (Great Speaker)

        Romney:

        Donphan (Elephant Pokemon)

        Persian (Has Lots of Money)

        Lopunny (Romney's Wife)

        Machamp (He seems pretty strong willed)

        Arceus (The whole Mormon thing)

        Charizard (He looks awesome)

        Obama's was a lot easier than Romney's. I don't know any of Romney's positions besides his economic ones. And those are the hardest to make into pokemon.

        [–]SargeantSandwich 71 points72 points ago

        Well, you failed at that.

        [–]Amarowar 26 points27 points ago

        Not trying to be racist, but your wifes a fat, black, big-lipped woman of ice.

        [–]MenaNoN 8 points9 points ago

        Oh lawd

        [–]IAMAVelociraptorAMA 67 points68 points ago

        Jynx is actually a caricature of Japanese women called ganguro. As opposed to traditionally Japanese pale skin, dark hair, etc., a ganguro would darken their skin, dye their hair light, and use excessive makeup.

        [–]studmuffffffin 10 points11 points ago

        Ah, I see. Well she looks black.

        [–]IAMAVelociraptorAMA 25 points26 points ago

        She looked black in the first game because she was black. In every game after that, she's purple, because an American thought she was a blackface racist symbol.

        On a side note, there's the theory that she's actually based off of a Nordic princess. The air was so cold their skin turned black; Nordic women have the blonde hair gene, and the nordic countries live in an icy, mountainous climate, accounting for type.

        [–]livefreeordont 19 points20 points ago

        from the controversial article by carole weatherford

        The character Jynx, Pokémon #124, has decidedly human features [in contrast to most other characters]: jet-black skin, huge pink lips, gaping eyes, a straight blonde mane and a full figure, complete with cleavage and wiggly hips. Put another way, Jynx resembles an overweight drag queen incarnation of Little Black Sambo, a racist stereotype from a children's book long ago purged from libraries.

        little black sambo

        [–]Hansarn 3 points4 points ago

        As a Norwegian, I can confirm all of this.

          You say false, but your link says

          common interpretations are a Nordic or a Viking woman (possibly Hel, goddess of the underworld), or ガングロ ganguro, face-black

          And you ignored that I also brought up this alternative theory in a successive post.

            With that lineup, if Romney loses it's just proof he knows jack shit about pokemon.

            [–]cdx75xmx 16 points17 points ago

            Correction: ROMNEY would have giraffarig, because he has two sides for every issue.

            mightyena (romneys dog on the roof)

            ditto/kecleon (romney switches his stance a lot)

            i might add some more if i can think of them

            edit:

            alakazam (obama wants to heavily fund education)

            exeggcute (romney is pro-life) maybe a stretch

            [–]ixionpearl 6 points7 points ago

            I don't think that his dog would be an evolved form of anything considering how he treats it.

            i dont think this is relevant, but still...

            [–]wackymayor 6 points7 points ago

            Poochyena instead of Mightyena. The double pun being the dog on the roof shit himself so you could go with Poocheyena, but that is more sad than punny. Great now I made myself sad. :(

              Someone needs to do an analysis of how this battle would go down.

              [–]WoohooOvertime 9 points10 points ago

              If we assume for simplicity's sake that Romney runs Arceus-N aka Extremekiller Arceus, then it essentially boils down to whether Arceus or Mewtwo can set up first. Arceus has about a 50/50 chance of surviving a +1 Aura Sphere from Mewtwo. Of course, Focus Blast is also an option for the clean OHKO but it's a big risk with the low accuracy rate. A +2 Extremespeed from Arceus is a clean OHKO on any standard offensive variant of Mewtwo and also nullifies the Speed advantage Mewtwo would normally have.

              However, Obama's team simply doesn't stack up in comparison. Luvdisc, Girafarig, Jynx, and Blissey are all dead weights. Romney's team is full physical barring Charizard (and even then, he might be crazy enough to run Belly Dance), leaving very little room for any of those four to survive. I'd give the battle to Romney because his team simply lends much better overall support and he doesn't have to worry about his ace possibly not killing Obama's ace.

                    Just to add to this, let's change the primary system. A year before the next election, candidates have to hit the campaign trail and beat the top trainer in each of the 50 states. Gives new meaning to the term "battleground states."

                    obamas metapod against romneys metapod and all they do is harden

                    [–]Smartio 21 points22 points ago

                    Obama:

                    Rapidash (Democracy- Donkey)

                    Eevee (Change)

                    Blissey (Obama care)

                    Alakazam (Strong Ideals)

                    Liligant (Environment)

                    Jirachi/ Deoxys (Space Exploration)

                    Romney:

                    Donphan (Republican- Elephant)

                    Rampardos (Military)

                    Persian (Wealth)

                    Magnezone/ Conkeldurr (Buisness)

                    Slowbro (Education Cuts)

                    Groudon (Foreign policy)

                    *Romney's Pokemon are somewhat odd, so I'll explain. Romney has few views on foreign policy, and Groudon created landmasses, so I associate the two because there won't be much overseas. Magnezone or Conkeldurr were chosen because Romney believes in big buisness, and Conkeldurr is a construction pokemon, and Magnezone is a peice of machinery. Also, Rampardos' massive attack stat makes the military choice clearer.

                    [–]Joshf1234 13 points14 points ago

                    Ah yes, Conkeldurr, the shrewd business-man pokemon

                    [–]Ninjadoo 4 points5 points ago

                    I don't get why democracy and space exploration are in there.

                    [–]SirShanksalot 25 points26 points ago

                    By democracy I believe they mean democrat.

                    [–]Detectiveoftheeast 9 points10 points ago

                    Because he's a democrat who supports space exploration? Shouldn't it be obvious? He's the democratic leader. And even on reddit he said he intended to increase space exploration.

                    [–]garrettjones331 10 points11 points ago

                    Space exploration should be on Romney, not Obama. Obama is the one who cut space exploration funding.

                      Dont want to sound bad or anything. But I think Romney has this one...I cannot recall a single "african or black" person in the whole pokemon universe.

                      Well, I guess you're right but Obama could have a pretty powerful Jynx/Scrafty. Also there was that 'Conspiracy Theory' About Brock promoting obama.

                      [–]qarson 2 points3 points ago

                      Lenora and Iris and the random dancer trainer (the one with dreadlocks) seem to be the closest
