Unkillable eggs deck?

frosty ledge
#

ye

#

unfortunate hard counter to my probopass deck lul

normal cave
#

Probopass more like

#

Banned fron GTS because its name contains ass

frosty ledge
#

yeah it's fun figuring out which card names are banned because probopass + EX = sEX

normal cave
#

Wait really?

frosty ledge
#

yeah lol

#

there was some other shortened name like pika pachi or pachi pika that I couldn't use either, forgot what the cuss word was there

normal cave
#

Apachi?

frosty ledge
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Arceus crobat seems pretty dang potent but you do need to actually get to crobat

normal cave
#

Wow crobat kinda dank

#

Shame it's so slow and inconsistent

#

It's got the same issue as Greninja

frosty ledge
#

true yeah

#

Honestly this set lacks so much sauce

Beeeeeeeg wezl time

#

My gf is going to kill me

#

She uses Comfey sometimes

normal cave
#

Oh? How'd you get it?

ashen barn
#

As it says on the tin, first to 500 point wins

normal cave
#

The game mode?

ashen barn
#

And the loot boxes from winning have a chance to drop skins

ashen barn
normal cave
#

I kept spamming that

#

Found out Espeon is an amazing goalkeeper

ashen barn
#

I tried alolan Ninetails seriously

#

Honestly, pleasantly surprised by veil gleam

normal cave
#

Speedsters are everywhere rn

ashen barn
#

Especially with my friend using lapras

#

I know

#

I'm going with a tank friend in vc for a reason

#

He takes the brunt, I deliver the pain

normal cave
#

I usually play tanks myself, but I don't do as well on them as I do on Espeon

ashen barn
#

And given he uses lapras, it's going ok so far

#

Mainly because we both can freeze

normal cave
#

I just get bullied until level 15 and then oneshot anyone

ashen barn
#

I had a run-in with an espeon

#

That thing hurts

#

I had blissey and several layers of protection but damn

#

I don't know what I'd have done (except dying) if zeraora hadn't stepped in

normal cave
#

Espe requiring 0 aim, having a oneshot combo, and having a unite move that can mass stun means that it can sit in place on the home goal and never let anyone score again.

ashen barn
#

I mean, lately I've been using dig quake chomp

#

Pseudo tank

#

Yes output is low, but damn, crowd control is something, provided dig doesn't go into a wall

normal cave
#

Not fond of chomp. I like mons with a busted early game.

ashen barn
#

I just need to turtle until lv7

normal cave
#

Espe in theory has a nuts early game. It's just that junglers level up so fast in 500 points mode, so they just bully espe

#

Eevee can bully people off their farm as soon as level 3

ashen barn
normal cave
#

And Espe's primary damage attack is unlocked at level 4

ashen barn
#

Lv4 evolution and gleam at 4

#

Which is deceptively long range

#

Not as much as blizzard, but hey

normal cave
#

Stored power has the advantage of giving you a movement speed buff, so you can use it as an escape tool as well as your primary damage source.

ashen barn
#

And the animation is a giant leap in a direction

#

So...yeah, get out of jail and some sustain

normal cave
#

Good shit

ashen barn
#

Can't really shake off absol, but other speedsters can be at least dodged a bit

normal cave
#

Yeah some can be hard to dodge

#

Mimikyu, despite being an all rounder, is one of the hardest to dodge

ashen barn
#

Yeah, hardest mon to use for me so far has been blissey

normal cave
#

Gengar too

ashen barn
#

Mainly with randoms tho

#

With friends, I have decent success with it

normal cave
#

Honestly, blissey has been easy for me. The issue is finding the right team to pick it on

ashen barn
#

Randoms is just...yep

normal cave
#

Yeah...

ashen barn
#

Given I don't run attacking moves, PLEASE protect me

normal cave
#

Egg bomb/softboiled can at least baby a team pretty hard

ashen barn
#

Yeah, but sometimes I go full support

normal cave
#

I often wound up with some of the highest damage on my team with double eggs

ashen barn
#

Aka I don't have damage, but I sure can be a nuisance

normal cave
#

Full support is for when you have a coordinated team you trust

#

I'd never pick it with randoms

ashen barn
#

And honestly it's how I like to use Blissey

#

As much of a roadblock as I can

#

I was thinking about picking up Snorlax for tank

#

Just because big boy takes hits and slaps you back to next week

#

I saw some success with Slowbro, but man do I suck aiming scalds

normal cave
#

Snorlax got giga buffed

ashen barn
#

Especially against speedsters

normal cave
#

Stored Power auto aims

ashen barn
#

I sat there for a couple seconds wondering what just happened

normal cave
#

Lax and Gengar both got giga buffed

#

Speedsters in general did, but Gengar won the biggest I think

ashen barn
#

To me, it was absol

normal cave
#

Its auto attacks now scale off spatk, so it can farm much easier

ashen barn
#

That thing is a nightmare to stop sometimes

normal cave
#

Yeah

ashen barn
#

It might be my mons that either lack range or firepower

normal cave
#

Nah Absol is really hard to shake

ashen barn
#

But that thing (owner's accuracy aside) is a menace

normal cave
#

It hits so hard

#

Hardest to shake for me are mimikyu and talonflame

ashen barn
#

I have been trying Talonflame

#

Charge fly is doing well

#

I hate when people expect it tho

#

It's not exactly stealthy

#

But on the flip side, seeing it and avoiding it are 2 different things

normal cave
#

Yeah talon is predictable. But still hard to deal with.

ashen barn
#

Yep, known quantity but man

#

Sometimes you just can't deal with fly spam

#

Last time I saw a Talonflame it was brave bird aerial ace...he slammed into a wall twice and got flinched to death by chomp

#

Rush claw combined does have a stun, thankfully, and a charged chomp hitting that combo + 2 basic attacks can spell gg for squishy stuff

normal cave
#

Dapper fellow

#

Also, I tanked 2 Darkrai ults this game and lived, and even KOed Darkrai after the ult ended once. Nearly did it again but the game ended.

#

And I just saw why. Level 12 Darkrai.

frosty ledge
normal cave
#

Time to play Snorlax ig

#

He got omega buffed recently so, like

#

Now is the best time

fading stratus
#

@normal cave I feel like you haven't realised you can just not take tatsu dozo to games
Like especially during bo3 where you can G1 tatsudozo yolo then G2 mix it up and just not take em and play the other 4

#

And sometimes you can take dozo without giri too

normal cave
#

But yeah, I'll be more thoughtful about bringing tatsudozo

#

Also I rarely being Iron Crown and Dnite. I do sometimes, but less often.

#

Chi Yu Mirai just deletes shit

fading stratus
#

Also how are you liking the team btw

#

Also If you have any problem regarding specific matchup we can go through the team and change moves if needed

normal cave
#

I LOVE IT fluff

#

Honse is scary, but I don't play my cards well and get Chi Yu killed.

#

I've been shitting on p much every Kyogre I meet, and Ogre is one of the two most popular restricted mons in my elo (alongside Mirai)

fading stratus
#

Yeah that's why I put scarf in chi yu with snarl

#

To beat honse

#

You can just spam snarl in general against special attacking teams

they have bitch ass teams

like flannery has a mega infernape with 137 base atk/spa and adaptability

normal cave

Both are not amazing, but Arma kinda needs doubles to function

fading stratus

understandable

normal cave
#

Ceruledge is at least UUBL

And has a sweeping set

#

Also it can be immune to both Infernape stabs if you want icant

I need to theorycraft for watson first icant

flannery is way later

I hope they dont have gmax in champions tho

Not sure it mattered since I had Dozo with protect in the back, but it sure helped

(and no giri)

Btw helping hand and sash on giri are so good

thats why I put it icant

I debated between safety googles and sash and decided to go with sash

I mostly use it as a helping hand/protect bot

#

muddy water is funny to cheese out wins sometimes

normal cave
#

But I did click draco meteor this game

fading stratus
#

tho bruial I'll say tho

#

I dont think I'd ever play a team like this myself

#

I generally like to play teams that are more balance oriented

normal cave
#

Yeah this is balls to the wall aggro

fading stratus
#

we call it hyperoffense

normal cave
#

Very ignorant team. You deal with them setting up tailwind/trick room/whatever by fucking killing them and saccing mons

fading stratus
#

I do think the team struggles a bit against good trick room teams

normal cave
#

Ye issa HO team

fading stratus
#

You dont really have slow options

normal cave
#

Giriless dozo and that's it

fading stratus
#

even dozo is weird

#

because if you dont tera you get spored

#

if you tera you get glacial lanced

normal cave
#

Oh for sure

fading stratus
#

has the mirai being 1 point faster ever come up

normal cave
#

No

fading stratus
normal cave
#

I rarely face mirai

#

And when I do they don't bring mirai

fading stratus
#

huh

normal cave
#

Idfk why

fading stratus
#

electro drift eats like half the team

normal cave
#

It eats most of the team

#

Chi yu, dozo, giri, dnite, crown

fading stratus
#

I think dnite should survive a drift pretty well

normal cave
#

Multiscale yeah

fading stratus
#

no its inner focus

#

you cant afford to play multiscale here

#

same reason as chi yu is ghost tera

#

fake out

#

also intimidate

#

multiscale was good last format tho

#

because dnite focused on staying for long and setting up tailwind

#

and chipping everything with scale shot

with dialga arceus looking like the clear new deck to beat

God they just cannot balance this game lol

Just gonna alternate the new hot tier 0 deck

probably

the new leafeon celebi deck looks cool tho

it only uses water energy

so it can use irida and erika

#

this is after they vaporized Azumaril. another pretty bulky pokemon.

#

so they just got to delete 2 tanks in the span of 2 seconds

#

man, I wish i was any good at speedsters. I guess I can play Talonflame

pseudo goblet
#

You could try Zeraora

#

Kinda red flag mon but I used to main the cat

#

Kinda fun jumping and use discharge

#

Far from meta moveset I believe lol

normal cave
#

idk if Zera was one of the speedsters that got buffed

#

ik Talonflame is

#

but the point is to use one of the giga-buffed Speedsters

#

Meowscarada, Gengar, Leafeon (?), Absol, Talon

#

and I have some experience with Talon

pseudo goblet
#

Im not down talking the pros that uses speedster, Im talking down on the casual who dont understand the game, which feels like half of the population

normal cave
#

yeah

#

idk why they decided to giga-buff an entire class

#

it works well in 500 points mode, where you level up way faster from wild pokemon, and where scoring a lot lets your team snowball

#

but did all the speedsters need that buff?

Absol as is was already scary af last time I play

I faced 2 mirai in a row, both went prankster tailwind turn 1 every game. The extra point in speed still hasn't come up.

#

Actually, wait

#

Nevermind, yeah, came up 0 times

#

Game 1 switching Crown into Chi Yu turn 1 was a misclick, and clicking snarl was just me tilting and not wanting to think

#

Snarl gleam just hits all their mons, let them do the thinking, not me

fading stratus

Tera steel lando is cool tho

I think tailwind mirai probably isn't a good matchup

Because its speed booster

It either goes tera ground tera blast, or I predict them to tera fairy and just tachyon cutter they ass

#

So, 50/50 nyaruhodo

fading stratus
#

Tera ground tera blast shouldn't kill mirai either nukgar

normal cave
#

Really?

#

Huh

#

Nevermind then

#

No clue how I won

fading stratus
#

Well it kills the standard fast max sp mirai

#

But it doesn't kill mirai with enough bulk

normal cave
#

G1 I got lucky that they electro drifted my mirai

#

I think they expected tera fairy?

#

G2 I think was cleaner by both parties

fading stratus
#

Yeah

#

I think you always expect tera fairy there

normal cave
#

Why?

#

I mean why would they expect that?

fading stratus
#

Because if you don't tera fairy you die to tailwind tera fairy dgleam

normal cave
#

I see

#

Like in g2

#

But I was fine losing Mirai there

#

At least, fine because chi yu lived

#

And, like, if I AM expecting tera fairy game 1 and I did not misclick and kept Crown in, I could still sac mirai and tachyon cutter them, trading our miraidons, eating their tera and keeping mine for Dnite, and having a speed boosted crown and a dnite in vs their whimsi and something else

#

I think the correct play g1 t1 was hold my tera and dazzling gleam or draco meteor plus tachyon cutter their mirai

#

That puts me in a good spot whether they tera or not, no?

fading stratus
#

I actually haven't thought much about the matchup

#

But the player (they had ghold instead of crown) lead mirai dozo iirc

#

The items do differ tho so maybe that makes some difference

mighty storm
normal cave
#

Why?

#

Is this like "delete one of my mons and my other mon deletes your team"?

#

Either ko Mirai and get swepped by dozogiri, or ko Dozo and get swept by Mirai with helping hand Giri

normal cave
# fading stratus <:clearly:1247706297491656795>

They omega buffed Talonflame, Meowscarada, Gengar, and Absol. To the point where their dedicated counters actually get countered by the things they should beat. So you need to pack as many of those as you can on a team.

#

Their Gengar was pretty terrible and it still oneshot people with no effort

#

Also I am a pretty mediocre Talonflame, and I still did amazing

#

It helps that every single move Talonflame has says "get out of jail free" so you can zoom across the map, score goals, and run away.

#

Talon is very ADHD friendly. Very fun mon.

mighty storm
#

OH

#

we might be getting a mega Garbodor

About fucking time

Garbodor supremacy

In the Mega section we see some mega evolved pokemon fighting non-mega pokemon who have megas

#

But Garbodor has no mega

#

hinting a mega garbodor?

normal cave
#

If we get Mega Garbodor, it'd be one of the few Pokemon with both a Mega and a Gmax, alongside the Kanto starters.

#

Meaning Garbodor is a Kanto starter

And a mascot Pokemon

holy shit

thats the most absurd theory

My other theory is more realistic

#

It's that Gamefreak suck at planning ahead and 99% of the stuff in the trailer isn't hinting at shit

They couldn't even plan to not use cyndaquil in Legends Arceus when it was gonna be the only odd one out from it's gen in ZA

probably not

Honestly there's probably a few new megas hopefully

But there's probably no rhyme or reason to them

fading stratus
#

yet another gen with no mega flygon

vagrant steppe
#

It's probably like Machamp, Ferrothorn, Rapidash, Shiftry, Mandibuzz, and Vikavolt

Maybe not exactly that list but you see the vision

There's no coherence to what mons Gamefreak picks to get new forms and shit

ferrothorn mega would be a war crime

fading stratus
#

its mega which has ablity which is basically a chip for

#

physical and special

#

both

#

not just contat

vagrant steppe
#

For example, why were most hisuain mons Gen 1, Sneasel, Gen 5, and Goodra?

#

There's no coherent theme

fading stratus
#

well

#

gen 1

#

theme right there

vagrant steppe
#

Gen 1 is a given because fanservice

#

People act like Gamefreak makes these smart decisions of the most thematically relevant mons

#

But they made 2 random Regis 15 years late just because

fading stratus
#

regibug trust

vagrant steppe
#

I still don't understand the idea behind regidrago

#

The original ones are classic golems

#

Regigas is the trio lord

#

And a titan

#

Electric? Sure?

#

Dragon??? Why

fading stratus
#

because dragons are cool

vagrant steppe
#

Yeah but he's just a ball with a Charizard mouth

void herald
warm sky
#

Regieleki is the modern age

vagrant steppe
#

Is that not also registeel's job tho?

#

Iron age and all

warm sky
vagrant steppe
#

Ah

#

I guess that fits, doesn't really make as much thematic sense tbh

warm sky
#

They're more "modern" periods

#

But ig tbf, Dragon is a super loose connection

#

Because oh "yeah dragon myths"

vagrant steppe
#

I dunno, the pokemon world is mostly just ours, with Pokemon

#

I would've gone with a different age if I really wanted a new regi

#

But Gamefreak decisions are always baffling so

inland gyro
#

i don't really get why they would do more regi's at all

#

because it just felt like a weird tag in that broke up a lot of the old design stuff

warm sky
#

I mean there is the old scrapped lore that implies Regigigas opposed Arceus lmao

normal cave
#

I do like the Riolu tech. Very cute.

#

But Tachyon Cutter kinda just melts honse through that. No redirection.

fading stratus
#

idk why they didnt just protect lol

#

also like why riolu

#

over like ursh

#

or even ape

normal cave
#

Quick guard

#

And Prankster

fading stratus
#

IK it has prankster

#

prankster riolu coaching or scarf ursh coaching just doesnt matter in terms of speed

#

only difference is ursh is a good mon

mighty storm
#

turn 3 win ez

normal cave
#

I guess Riolu has Helping Hand

#

Honestly Riolu's coolest niche is prankster copycat

#

Which they do not run

#

Prankster copycat trick room is the spice

#

Also, upper hand over quick guard is an option, but it loses to inner focus dnite and any covert cloak mon

normal cave
#

Feint is an option

#

Riolu has some really cool shit, but if you aren't abusing Copycat you probably have better options

warm sky
sterile verge
#

And no ping 334

#

Anyway new party crashers video

warm sky
sterile verge
#

Ok but seriously they're late where is it

mighty storm
#

first 2 of the new promo packs

#

I should build ChompEx

warm sky
#

you know I just realized z-a trainers come in multiple skintones. This looks to be hex maniac?

polar osprey
#

somehow even cranidos is better than gabite

#

they really need to learn how to design stage 2 lines

#

Ig rampardos being a fossil is also a bonus bcs it doesn't conflict with the basic you do want to open and you can just build it in the bench

#

but that wouldn't be an issue if they made gible or gabite decent

sterile verge
#

I hope Z-A fixes SV's issue with brown characters because like icant

#

Like the black characters looked fine

#

The white characters looked fine

warm sky
sterile verge
#

The brown ones looked white with a slight tan icant

sterile verge
#

I think its cool either way

warm sky
#

it is

warm sky
#

I moreso meant in comp to the gen 9 npc trainers

normal cave
#

Unique to gen 6

#

So unique they had an entire gym

#

I'm saying she could be a furisode girl

warm sky
sterile verge
#

Yeah

#

Also the hex maniac's outfit doesn't match the furisode girls

latent sleet
#

its good to know trainer classes are here after whatever the fuck sv had

I am very bad at talon, but it's so broken that that is irrelevant

#

Where are these from icant

#

I've seen these for both XY and B2W2 where do people get these

fading stratus
#

you dont need 2 moves that do the same thing

#

and if you need a support coaching user

#

the worlds runner up team had valiant with booster and coaching encore

#

it gets feint quick guard wide guard disable and all them stuff

fading stratus
#

also I was looking at their team bruial

#

and why cloak glastrier

pseudo goblet
fading stratus
#

as broken as the horse is

#

it has a very big weakness

#

and cloak doesnt solve it sadly

pseudo goblet
fading stratus
#

no

#

drops as in?

#

does it set or remove

pseudo goblet
#

Mon with it set trick room upon switch in

fading stratus
#

no

#

that sounds very broken

pseudo goblet
#

Yes clearly

fading stratus
#

trick room in general is a very strog strategy in doubles

#

and trick room still has like -12 prio

pseudo goblet
#

Oooh idea again

#

Same thing but Trick Room only activates if the mon with it fainted

fading stratus
#

maaaybe

#

that probably sounds fine maybe

#

i think it'd be broken in singles probably

pseudo goblet
#

Call the others to discuss lmao

fading stratus
#

who else to discuss man only me and bruial play doubles icant

pseudo goblet

oh yozzoy plays it too ig

who knows

pseudo goblet
#

Imagine, 2 people bringing full team of six and picking only 2 per match

#

Bad math, thats 6 x 6 worth of possible team or??

fading stratus
#

15*15

#

yeah that sounds weird ik

#

its like n!/k!(n-k)!

#

n is 6 k is 2 because you can pick only 2

#

! is factorial

#

basically 6! is 6x5x4x3x2x1

fading stratus
#

but zane tldr is there are 225 possible teams

pseudo goblet

also the others have at least somewhat related goals to them helping out sycamore

#

aside from shauna ig cuz i don't remember what her goal was OgreThink

normal cave

neither does she

I think her whole point was not knowing what she wanted

outer eagle
#

well yeah but if that's the point then there really should be a resolution of her learning what she wants to do

which idt happened

normal cave

I think she decides to help you in your goal?

she gets way too cozy with the player which made me uncomfortable

Honestly easiest thing I can say to meet people, join a hobby that requires you to be in person with a similar crowd as what you’re interested in. Like Pokémon? Play the tcg at locals even if you’re not super fond of it. If you notice a group of people having fun ask if you can join in and apologise for being quiet and just vibe

In general

It's because the rival is the opposite gender player

Just with different drip + colors

last musk
pseudo goblet
#

You mean night shift?

#

8-5(really tho its 7 on average)

pseudo goblet
fading stratus
#

maybe there's a dating sidequest in the game thats why the rival is opposite gender

last musk
warm sky
# pseudo goblet Also Yeah I figure, we had Rei and Akari, but at least thats an MC thought urb...

It's likely just them being different compared to other opp gender player NPCs because

A: Show off the customization features of the game.
B: In reference how the X&Y rival was different to a more extreme. (Since NPC Calem/Serena lost the hat)
C: Since the Z-A PCs are clearly meant to resemble Ethan & Lyra, like Rei & Akari being Lucas & Dawn, and them not being ancestors or descendants - you don't want a copycat running around in the same time period.
