Zarel is the creator of the fan-made Pokémon Battle Simulator Pokémon Showdown, and one of the admins behind the associated Smogon University.
Bio[edit | edit source]
As mentioned above, Zarel is the obsessive codemonkey behind Pokémon Showdown. Being very popular platform, it also has garnered the attention of Anons from the recurring /fullderp/ generals; whose unique interpretation of the term 'fun' and creative ways of achieving it have failed to receive any sort of appreciation by Zarel himself.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Zarel appeared in the Pokémon-themed 8chanmania LIV. As a form of loving tribute, he had been assigned as the trainer of the very Funbro he had furiously banned from Showdown.
It goes beyond saying that Funbro's edit was every bit as FUN as its showdown equivalent was. Which effectively is to say it was rigged to do nothing but evade attacks without pulling any attacks of its own; potentially dragging the entire match to infinity. It's match against the Specs Weedle of MacChaeger still ended after a mere 104 minutes, and that it ended at all was largely blamed on the game engine shitting itself.
And so, as is tradition, Funbro was banned from 8chanmania, too.
