Post subject:  JsXtm's Pokemon Elimination Challenge - Semifinal Round

Greetings, come one, come all, to JsXtm's Pokemon Elimination Challenge! Your choices are between the following pokemon:

{clefable}
{dewgong}
{heracross}
{mew}
{wailord}
{jirachi}
{altaria}
{milotic}
{bellossom}
{dragonite}
{registeel}
{ampharos}
{starmie}
{pikachu}
Image
{chansey}
{pelipper}
{jolteon}
{snorlax}
{steelix}
{sneasel}
{arceus}
{quagsire}
{jigglypuff}

Rules:
1. Each person can vote once per round.
2. Each vote consists of Pokemon 1/Pokemon 2, where you are voting to give Pokemon 1 immunity, and to boot Pokemon 2.
3. The pokemon who wins immunity in a round is the pokemon with the highest number of immunity votes. I two or more pokemon are tied for the highest number of immunity votes, the one of those who has the lowest number of boot votes will win immunity. If two or more pokemon are tied for both highest number of immunity votes and lowest number of boot votes, they will all receive immunity in the next round.
4. The pokemon who wins immunity in a round cannot be voted to Boot in the next round (indicated by a * in that pokemon's score). The pokemon who wins immunity in a round can win immunity in the next round.
5. A round ends when a) a pokemon gets 5 immunity votes, b) a pokemon gets 5 boot votes, or c) four days pass without a or b happening.
6. Rules for the semifinal and final will be forthcoming later.
7. New Rule: you cannot change your vote once it's been cast.
8. New Rule: you cannot vote in the next round until it has officially been started by JsXtm.
9. Updated rules for the final rounds
Starting in Round 17 the vote limit will increase from 5 to 7.
Starting in Round 20 the vote limit will increase from 7 to 10.
In Round 21 (IE, 4 remaining pokemon), the pokemon who wins immunity will receive full immunity, no boot or immunity votes allowed (essentially a bye into the final).
In Round 22 (the semifinal), there will only be two pokemon who can be voted for or against, with the winner advancing into the final. Please use the same voting format for consistencies sake.

How exactly did these pokes get choosen for this? Anyway...

{dragonite} / {bellossom}
For some reason I like Dragonite the best on here since he used to be one of the 'extreme pokes' on my old Firered playthroughs, and his pre-evo Dragonair is one of my all time favs. / I don't like grass types, and I usually don't like 'cute' pokes. Bash the two together, and you get Bellossom.

Edit: Deleted scoreboard since JsXtm is keeping track now

It's been a while since the last PEC

Altaria/Reuniclus

I narrowed down my favourite Pokemon to a list of 10 recently and Altaria is the only one here that made the cut / I like a lot of the new Pokemon but Reuniclus is not one of them

There is a rhyme and reason to it; I'll explain after it's over, if not before.

In the interest of helping the game move along, I guess I'll participate too.

{dragonite} / Image

Dragonite is and always has been one of my absolute favorite pokemon. / Not a fan of the Gen V pokemon? Alright, I just haven't played Black/White at all, so I'm totally unfamiliar with them.

Reuniclus / {arceus}

I like Reuniclus's design, and right now in White, I have a Duosion that I plan to evolve into a Reuniclus. The design and the way it distinctly says, "Psychic-type here" to me is what makes me like it most.

Arceus is just stupid. The only cool thing about it is its ability, Judgement, and the fact that it changes colors with the ability. That's it. Other than that, it's highly overrated, it looks dumb, and I don't think there should have been a Pokemon that created the whole universe. It may just be me, but those are my thoughts.

Image / {jigglypuff}
Reuniclus is AWESOME beyond words. It has a very unique design that appeals to people who adore cute Pokemon and people who like quirky and strong Pokemon. It may not have the best stats and movepool but I just absolutely love this green blob.
On the other hand, Jigglypuff - Urgh. It's only use is to annoy you at the start of your FRLG run by Singing to you and having a ton of HP. Other than that, it's ugly, and it's useless. And so are Igglybuff and Wigglytuff. URGH.
Sorry if I offended some people (especially a certain Admin) but that's just my opinion.

{wailord} / {arceus}

Wailord because thats pretty much my favorite pokemon and my username

And Arceus because I don't like it for being the "god" of Pokemon I think this pokemon was made just to have one more thing to have little kids drool about and hack like 47 into their game and beat their friends with their arceuses and stuff. etc.

Registeel/Chansey
Registeel because out of the pokes chosen its one of the few in the list tha tI like. As for Chansey, I HAVE A BURING HATRED OF CHANSEY THAT EVEN THE HEAT OF THE SUN CAN NOT EVEN MATCH.

That's actually Chansey, not Blissey; do you want to change your vote?

{heracross} / {jigglypuff}

Heracross is in my top five favorite Pokemon for design and typing. Plus it knows one of my five favorite moves, Megahorn.

I don't care if certain-admin is offended. I HATE Jigglypuff more than GofD hates the Blissey that isn't on the list. If Jigglypuff were real, I would behead every single one. And I don't care if they don't really have a head, I WILL BEHEAD THEM! I {absol}UTELY DESPISE JIGGLYPUFF WITH ALL THE HATRED EXISTENCE WILL NEVER KNOW!!![/rampage]

{dragonite} / {jigglypuff}

Dragonite is one of my favourite pokemon on top of being a dragon type which is one of my favourite types.
Jigglypuff has always seemed rather useless to me.

{ampharos} / {jigglypuff}

ampharos is surprisingly one of my favorite pokemon ever
Jigglypuff just fails at being a pokemon

Admittedly, I am technically cutting the round 20 minutes short, but I'm not planning to be on in 20 minutes, so I'm ending it now (4 days after start of the round).

{steelix} / {clefable}
Since Dragonite won last round, I'm changing my vote. GIANT METAL SNAKE FTW!!!!!!
Also changing down vote. I've never liked Clefable, since it looks just like a Clefairy with wings glued on its back for some reason, and I've never liked Clefairy anyway since it looks bad and every other female trainer in Sinnoh had one.

{heracross} / {clefairy}

Heracross: See last vote.
Clefairy: Almost the same thing as Jigglypuff in my eyes, only less puffy and singy. I STILL hate it, so I'm teaming up with Shuckle-rock$ for this vote.

Same vote as last time for I am thoroughly disappointed Arceus stayed in.

{dragonite} / {bellossom}

Dragonite for the same reasons as before.
I think that Bellossom is a cute pokemon, and I hate cute pokemon. I also think that it is weak compared to the other path the Oddish family could take (Vileplume {vileplume} ).

Registeel/Clefairy

Registeel-> See last Vote.

Clefairy-> Although my Burning hatred of chansey is strong, Clefable is a close second. Clefable just looks like a taller version of Clefairy. In my own personal opinion, The Clefairy evo line is the one of the most UNIMAGINATIVE in the game.

Like a lot of folks, I'm sticking with my same votes from last round.

{dragonite} / Image

Still my favorite / Still don't care about the 5th gen pokemon.

Can we vote for the pokemon that got immunity?? In the one PEC sticky, it says that a pokemon can't get immunity twice in a row, so I was wondering if this is a special case, or something else. Also, are we allowed to change our votes?? If so, I'd like to go with:
{clefairy} / {arceus}
