pseudo goblet
normal cave

Good name

fading stratus
#

I'm really proud of Stinkaton and Balking Bake

normal cave
#

Yeah rilla is a good pick

fading stratus
#

sterile verge
#

Ogrepon

fading stratus
#

this is basically the tierlist if you wanna think more

#

push groudon and Zacian in D tier ig

fading stratus

mirai had 2/24 tops last regionals

which was same as kyogre

pseudo goblet

Grookey is hard to see btw, even when isolated it

golden lance
normal cave
golden lance

Wtf did they do to the dog?

fading stratus
golden lance

pseudo goblet
fading stratus
#

zane how much of chinese memes/novels do you read

pseudo goblet
#

hell nah

#

english life bro

#

yes I speak chinese but poor english but typing is a wonderful thing lol

fading stratus
#

I was reading a LN

#

and It had a convo

#

the author said it was related to a chinese meme so I was wondering

pseudo goblet
#

shoot

fading stratus
#

the convo went like
"You're here"
"I'm here"
"You shouldn't be here"
"But I'm already here"

pseudo goblet
#

I got nothin lol

sharp kernel
#

@fading stratus building a Koraidon team right now, currently stuck on Koraidon/Urshifu/Amoongus

fading stratus
#

incin

pseudo goblet
#

Porygon blob3c

sharp kernel
#

Started off with Rillaboom over moongus, but realized moongus just fit better here

fading stratus
#

rockpon btw

pseudo goblet
#

cotton maybe

sharp kernel
fading stratus
#

firepon or rockpon fit better than amogus

#

if you want a grass type

sharp kernel
#

rockpon could be a cool possibility

fading stratus
#

fire type of choice can be incin, volc, gouging, chi yu, entei

pseudo goblet
#

Volcarona clearly

fading stratus
#

sun abuser probs just flutter and raging bolt

sharp kernel
#

so, hit me with the pros and cons between rockpon vs amoongus

#

rockpon has obv more offensive pressure

fading stratus
#

rockpon hits ice rider

#

also sturdy means it survives atleast 1 move

normal cave
#

Rockpon has built in sash

fading stratus
#

amogus should die to any fire move in sun

golden lance
#

Btw bolt

fading stratus
#

unless you tera

#

choccy

golden lance
#

Does miraidon give you any incentive to running a future paradox mon?

#

Not really right?

fading stratus
#

not necessarily

fading stratus
#

if you do you generally run hands yeah

#

or crown

golden lance
normal cave
#

Crown fluff

fading stratus
#

hands isnt necessary either

#

you can just use incin as fake out user

pseudo goblet
normal cave
#

Crown just eating through sash/sturdy is fun

fading stratus
#

sometimes people use iron stinky

golden lance
#

Who?

normal cave
#

Rockpon follow me eats shit into tachyon cutter

golden lance
#

Everyone begins with iron wym

normal cave
fading stratus
#

the grass type

#

iron grass idfk

golden lance
#

Leaves

normal cave
#

Leaves?

pseudo goblet
#

honestly, its better that its a she than if it had Uncommon mark and male KEKW fluff

normal cave
#

Leaves is good?

golden lance
#

Man i miss bundle

#

That dude was funny

fading stratus
#

I've seen iron rock once

normal cave
#

Crown eats sashes and has a good typing

#

Rock is rock urshifu

golden lance
#

Freeze dry into dozo was a 0hko

fading stratus
#

oh yeah another is iron roller ig

golden lance
#

Good stuff

normal cave
#

I do love bundle

normal cave
#

But it is kind of in the chi yu zone of innacurate moves

fading stratus
#

freeze dry shouldnt ohko dozo

fading stratus
#

unless its like spa booster

#

and even then probs not

#

maybe specs

golden lance
#

Yea specs did the job iirc

fading stratus
#

noone played specs in doubles

sharp kernel
#

Why shouldn't I Chien Pao in this team bolt

golden lance
#

I did

pseudo goblet
#

smh Bolt didnt react to the shiny Grookey nukgar

fading stratus
#

there's 1 slot you can probs test pao

pseudo goblet
#

female one at that nukgar

fading stratus
#

vro I missed it

#

too invested in the convo

pseudo goblet
#

ik lol

fading stratus
#

specs bundle did nothing tbh

#

only good use of bundle was support

#

people didnt even run hydro pump most of the time

#

just encore

pseudo goblet
#

curious, best use for the non paradox Bundle?

fading stratus
#

also bundle doesnt even have 4 good moves

fading stratus
fading stratus
pseudo goblet
#

yes icant

#

God I have so many empty head moment tonight

#

Wait what kind of pokeball do I even use for Rillaboom???

fading stratus
#

#

pseudo goblet
#

dang, I wanna name it KingDurian, but its a gal KEKW

sharp kernel
pseudo goblet
#

ig I can try catch more

fading stratus
#

QueenDurian

#

play single strike

sharp kernel
#

nah, I want rapid strike

fading stratus
#

also rockpon's another use is it redirects spore btw

#

I forgot to mention

sharp kernel
#

whoops i didn't change my teras

pseudo goblet
#

actually thats a cool name

fading stratus
#

we dont have durians here

#

only jackfruit

#

probs do play rockpon tbh

pseudo goblet
#

ehhhh I dont like it

fading stratus
#

watershifu in sun team feels abyssmal tbh

#

but its your team you do you

pseudo goblet
#

why the intentional nerf peepoS

fading stratus
#

I'd probs just remove ursh water add ursh dark and maybe remove chien pao for sth like idk balking bake or raging bolt or sth

#

also if you remove pao you can sash flutter

#

or even specs here

#

booster flutter should have some bulk

pseudo goblet
#

Just Lunala and Roaring left

fading stratus
#

do you have shiny indeedee

pseudo goblet
#

Nope

fading stratus
#

do you have the pic of the 6 mons I posted btw

pseudo goblet
#

Unfortunately

fading stratus
#

this was it wasnt it

#

when I thought of this team that groudon was AV rock tomb groudon

pseudo goblet
#

Entei oh god lmao

#

Where Rillaboom okbuddy

fading stratus
#

this team was before lunala won the regs and that team is pretty similar lmao

fading stratus
#

this was the winning team

#

I'm a fucking prophet

fading stratus
pseudo goblet
fading stratus
#

yozz watches toku vro

#

did you forget

fading stratus
#

probably one of the ugliest suits I've seen

pseudo goblet
#

Well people like him for his personality anyway icant

fading stratus
#

he sounds pretty gay

pseudo goblet
#

Thats the point KEKW

golden lance
#

Zane

#

Do me a favor and shiny hunt a lunala

#

Ty

fading stratus
#

I'm making him shiny hunt anyway

#

he only plays shiny teams

#

so he forces me to make weird ass teams

pseudo goblet
fading stratus
#

did you know only 3 good restricteds are available as shiny

pseudo goblet
#

Actually nvm whole video is about Oren, good lol

fading stratus
#

what a random thing to show me at 12am

pseudo goblet
#

Surely we had worse icant

pseudo goblet
golden lance
#

No reason in particular

#

You should just do it

fading stratus
#

choccy

pseudo goblet
#

Already 5 encounters in with Dynamax Adventure icant

fading stratus
#

wanna bet on what next format will be

#

double restricted or low powered format

golden lance
#

Double res

pseudo goblet
fading stratus
#

double res is weird because it's still not the last year of SV yet

#

it'll be after worlds

sharp kernel
#

Alright, I ran into the first issue bolt

#

this team can't deal with grimmsnarl lol

golden lance
#

Hmm

#

That's true

pseudo goblet
#

Full six Restricted team format when KEKW

fading stratus
#

urshifu dark hits through protect clearly

#

and screens

#

and under sun

sharp kernel
#

yeah, this is fine, I did the same with rapid strike, it still doesn't change the fact they get a free reflect up

fading stratus
#

and they cant prankster twave a dark type

sharp kernel
#

and surging strikes doesn't KO grimmsnarl, soooooooooooo

fading stratus
#

just play taunt

#

let them set reflect

sharp kernel
#

Grimmsnarl + raging bolt lead with calyrex ice in the back felt impossible

pseudo goblet
fading stratus
#

it'll be like 4 restricted 2 support mons likely

golden lance
#

Can we allow mythicals again?

#

I wanna do the funny dark void bs again

fading stratus
#

again? series 13 isn't a real format

#

lol

#

I mean thugs

#

you can play tera steel lando I

#

if you want

#

sludge bomb beats grimm

#

earth power beats raging bolt

sharp kernel
#

might be the play, take out chien pao for it

#

put sash back on shifu

normal cave
#

@tacit sphinx

fading stratus
#

and I realised tepig was the least liked of the 3

normal cave
#

Emboar has the unfortunate property of being ugly

fading stratus
#

you just dont have the vision

sterile verge
#

Wtf

#

Emboar is peak

frosty ledge
#

all starters in that gen are ultra mid

normal cave
#

Samurott is my fave

fading stratus
#

buncha haters here holy

frosty ledge
#

I'm ngl samurott looks like they stapled 2 pokemon together

normal cave
#

Serperior is also the scalie's favorite

#

Well, snivy

#

But I like serp more

frosty ledge
sterile verge
#

Holy fuck yall are haters

sterile verge
frosty ledge
#

now fuecoco -> skeledirge, that's an S tier starter series right there

outer eagle
#

"Cool and unique designs" when stuck in NU hell CheemsCozy
Anyways i do agree that aesthetically speaking the Unovan starters aren't the best

frosty ledge
#

no thoughts going on in head to ghost gator

lilac fiber
#

Samurott is best gen 5 starter in my opinion, but I think they are all good

#

Don't get the tepig line hate

fading stratus
#

tepig line is goated

#

whatever y'all say

normal cave
outer eagle
#

Performance is the most important metric for a starter for me so tepig is pretty good in gen 5 PuddingSip

normal cave
#

I don't dislike tepig. Its cool. I just think its the ugliest of the 3.

lilac fiber
#

I don't think its all that ugly

normal cave
#

Oshawott and Snivy are two of my all-tine fave starters

lilac fiber
#

Oshawott is in my top 3

#

Love my little guy

normal cave
#

Emboar is not trying to not be ugly. It's not furry bait, it's a cool concept executed well

lilac fiber
#

Only issue with is I feel is the blue fire doesn't match well with the orange

frosty ledge
#

for me it's blaziken, empoleon and decidueye as my top 3

normal cave
#

Bird lover

lilac fiber
#

Meganium, torterra, samurott for me

frosty ledge

sterile verge
#

Except gen 9

#

(I fucking hate wattrel/kilowattrel)

frosty ledge
sterile verge
#

(Even in the anime)

frosty ledge
#

understandable tbh, kilowattrel is extremely underwhelming

#

talonflame is the best designed flying type in the whole series though probably?

sterile verge
#

Flying type? No

golden lance
#

Debatable

sterile verge
#

Bird? Probably

normal cave
sterile verge
#

Wtf

lilac fiber

I will not accept killowaterrel slander

Mods, slice his ballsack off

golden lance
#

Weird gif choice

normal cave
#

Uhhhh, not the best phrasing there buddy

frosty ledge

Corv is pretty good

frosty ledge

Oh right Dnite, Mence, Altaria, and Noivern are flying type too

golden lance
sterile verge
#

Altaria is cool too

#

Idk never spontaneously ask me for pokemon opinions

#

Or for like

#

A favourite specifically

normal cave
#

Dragon has got to be my favorite type

frosty ledge

celesteela goes hard too

Mine is steel

#

Easy

pseudo goblet
lilac fiber
#

Grass for me

sterile verge
#

Steel ks peak

frosty ledge
#

I think psychic is still my favorite type

golden lance
#

Water is such a good type

lilac fiber
#

Steel is prob in my top 3 alongside grass and ground

normal cave
pseudo goblet
sterile verge
#

But yeah my top 2 are both steel

#

And in general I love every steel type

normal cave
#

I just love dragons

frosty ledge
#

steel as a type goes hard

golden lance
#

every?

normal cave
sterile verge
#

My least favourite is like

#

Klinklang and even that's like a 6/10 at worst

frosty ledge
#

steel even has the best fairy type

golden lance
#

Thoughts on klefki

pseudo goblet
sterile verge
#

Klefki is cool

normal cave
#

Steel/Fairy is the best type combo in the game

sterile verge
#

Its a silly jingly creature

lilac fiber
#

Klinklang line is cool

sterile verge
lilac fiber
#

Metagross has the best shiny out of the pseudo legends ties in my opinion

Oh god not this again lol

Actual bottom tier character

pseudo goblet
# sterile verge ZANE GO TO BED

I wanna say its cause I had coffee today, but really and like I said, I aint fucking sleeping when there were Ben 10 topic KEKW

golden lance

I did not watch the anime so I'll take your word for it

Thoughts on perrserrker?

That would make more sense

pseudo goblet
lilac fiber
#

You know, maybe you should go to sleep like that probopass

#

Just saying

frosty ledge
#

man gen 3 has way too many cool pokemon to choose from

#

genuinely peak gen design

frosty ledge
#

word me @snow oasis

pseudo goblet
golden lance
#

Gen 3 is the single gen where all 3 starters were unambiguous hits

#

Love to see it

lilac fiber
#

Gen 4 starters were also all hits

golden lance
#

Debatable

golden lance
#

Empoleon specially was really hated at the time

frosty ledge
#

damn seriously? empoleon design goes the hardest though

golden lance
#

Does pla count?

swift jasper
frosty ledge
#

gen 3 not just starters but the entire gen was entire fuckin hits

pseudo goblet
golden lance
#

I love the trident penguin

golden lance
#

And its tecnically not a mainline game

pseudo goblet
#

Are you gonna disagree its a good trio tho blob3c

golden lance
#

No

pseudo goblet
#

The final evos really

pseudo goblet
sterile verge
#

Nice one

frosty ledge
#

can't handle peak pensivecowboybread

#

what the fuck is this?

sterile verge
#

Pokestar studios

snow oasis
#

Gen 3 design is peak aesthetics and nadir stats

sterile verge
#

Gen 3 sucks it has like 20 good pokemon and the rest are forgettable or worse

snow oasis
#

“I’m a gen 3 mixed attacker with middling defenses and terrible speed”

golden lance
#

Comp tecnically started on gen 4

#

Idt they really cared about that

snow oasis
#

this may surprise you but pokemon stats also do something in-game

golden lance
#

You can beat the game with anything tho

snow oasis
#

Yeah but that doesn’t mean certain mons aren’t infuriating to actually use in game due to terrible stats

lilac fiber
#

God, gen 6 really has so few pokemon

golden lance
golden lance
#

(they still failed)

snow oasis
#

Poison Heal mons should also receive health back from taking Poison type attacks similar to Flash Fire/Water Absorb

golden lance
#

Speaking of breloom

#

Saw some people elsewhere discussing how would the game change if protect was always something you could always do instead of costing a move slot

#

Would legit do so much for poison heal breloom builds

snow oasis
#

SubSeed Loom stonks ↗️

snow oasis
#

Can’t even fit a Fighting move

warm sky
#

so fucking obnoxious

#

EVERYTHING has free protect???

golden lance
#

Theoretically yes

snow oasis
#

(pretend this is incineroar)

golden lance
#

Close enough

snow oasis
#

Yeah I was hoping such a gif would exist for Incin

lilac fiber
frosty ledge
#

also finished

lilac fiber
#

Only top 5 that struggled to fit in slots was torterra

frosty ledge
#

good taste in mega houndoom 👌

lilac fiber
#

Also, when I put in evos i like the whole line

lilac fiber
#

Also toxicroak, my boy deserves more respect

frosty ledge
#

yeah he's one of my favorite fighting types

lilac fiber
#

He is my favorite, top 5 of all time for me also

frosty ledge
#

I think nihilego is my new favorite pokemon after thinking about it

normal cave
#

Done. My past fave has been dethroned (by my 2nd fave)

lilac fiber
#

What was the past one?

normal cave
#

Weavile

frosty ledge
#

chi-yu 👌

lilac fiber
# lilac fiber

I also tried to fit in as many different mons as possible here (ex: I like giratina more than dialga, but I put dialga in for dragon more variety)

frosty ledge
#

and hisuian typhlosion and shedinja, you are a man of taste

normal cave
#

Weavile, Mienshao, Furret, Typh-H, and Floatzel are all in equal standing for me more or less

normal cave
frosty ledge
#

he looks old and wise

normal cave
#

Ye

frosty ledge
#

and is nodl

normal cave
#

And cuddly

#

Small cuddly sage

vagrant steppe
#

FINALLY

normal cave
#

Need 1 more?

vagrant steppe
#

Nah this is the second

normal cave
#

Close contender for me

frosty ledge
#

I love its design, peak gen 2 design imo

lilac fiber
lilac fiber
normal cave
#

Yeee, love himb fluff

lilac fiber
#

Same, loved him since I was a kid, same with sentret, both are peak design

normal cave
#

Was gen 2 your first gen?

lilac fiber
#

Yes and no

#

Started with soulsilver

#

Gen 4 but a gen 2 remake

normal cave
#

Checks out

#

So your first mon is still your fave mon

#

That's really sweet

lilac fiber
#

Yeah, chikorita line has been my ride or die ever since

#

So I am really excited for ZA

normal cave
#

Here's hoping for fairy/grass Meganium

latent sleet
#

im gonna be honest not the biggest fan of the starter pokemon line-up

#

guess i’ll go with tepig

normal cave
#

I've taken to boxing my starter in most of my playthroughs

#

Mostly because I played mostly monotype last I played

lilac fiber
#

I just can't box my starter, it feels wrong

normal cave
#

Can't have a starter on a mono-dragon team

lilac fiber
#

Fair

swift jasper
lilac fiber
#

Except mega charizard and sceptile I guess

normal cave
#

Gotta bond with your fighting types too

normal cave
latent sleet
#

my theory is that there won’t be a region themed starter but the starters will have megas

normal cave
#

Thats fine too

#

Mega Meganium would be so goofy tho

lilac fiber
#

I would be happy, means regular meganium isn't getting outshined by a regional form

normal cave
#

Also, Mega is not what Meganium needs. Meganium is a support mon.

#

You generally want your mega to deal a fuckton of damage

latent sleet
#

i mean sableye is also a support pokemon right

normal cave
#

Yes it is, and I'm not sure how popular it was

#

Mega Sableye was also unique in that you didn't have to mega it to get value

lilac fiber
#

Meganium can do a lot of stuff outside of support, for example, its base speed is the same as blazikens base so its not bad

normal cave
#

Since both mega and non-mega sableye both play vastly differently

lilac fiber
#

Problem is it is a jack of all trades and doesn't have enough to specialize in something or be worht it over more specialized mons

normal cave
#

Also, support mons like speed

#

Its why Prankster is so good

lilac fiber
#

True

normal cave
#

Speaking of priority Meganium could get

#

Triage

#

Give Mega Meganium priority Giga Drain and Draining Kiss and suddenly its a nasty offensive threat

normal cave
#

Solves its meh speed and lets it focus on offense and bulk

lilac fiber
#

It really would, and with boost spells like swords dance and nasty plot (forget if it gets nasty plot, so it would be nice to get that if it doesn't) it can hit hard

normal cave
#

Could run calm mind (or growth if you must), giga drain, draining kiss, and protect, it could be a menace

#

Or for singles swap protect with something like aromatherapy

lilac fiber
#

Yup, and leech seed or synthesis for more healing or even something like earthquake for coverage or dragon tail for control

normal cave
#

If it gets those

lilac fiber
#

It does

#

Trust me, I have tried to make meganium work

normal cave
#

Probably not eq

#

If we go special

lilac fiber
#

True

normal cave
#

But this is all speculation

lilac fiber
#

yeah, we won't know for a long time what it gets

normal cave
#

We don't know what meganium will get. We assume fairy related stuff because of the trailer, but that's it

lilac fiber
#

Yeah, we just have to wait and see, regardless, I will take what I can get

#

whatever it is

normal cave
#

Looking at what they did for legends arceus and the last two sets of new starters, I think we can be optimistic. They really want to push starters to be playable.

Ohhh true

Good taste

normal cave
# warm sky EVERYTHING has free protect???

Nearly everything already runs protect. So yeah, you free up a moveslot, remove the downside of choice items and assault vest, and make perish trapping much stronger.

warm sky
normal cave
#

Perish wants protect on everything, but with protect not being a move you get to run choice items and AV on the team, making it a menace. You can play Perish how it wants to be played: as offense that happens to have a perish trap core.

#

Also HO gets to play super safe for no cost

#

HO with free action Protect would be vile

oh thank god I still have mine saved

you cannot judge me, for I have not a single wrong opinion here

Tailwind support with booster energy, tera flying acrobatics, and I think knock off

if you're unlucky you can try roaring moon

then if you're unlucky you can try lunala

Still havent get a phase in DA yet

caly zama ogre korai lunala are decent as well

warm sky

I got Scarlet, so

fading stratus
#

groudon and zaxian are playable

warm sky
#

No DLC, No Swsh, but I also got Alpha Sapphire and Moon

fading stratus
#

Korai is fine

#

Korai Lunala probs can be a decent duo in double restricted too

#

korai beats lunala's weakness normal types

#

also physical special pairing and korai beats dark

#

no dlc does mean you dont have the second best mon on the game sadly

Ah cringe fu

fading stratus
#

well it's good so y'know nukgar

warm sky
#

Bro is overtuned

#

Mf ignores protect

#

Ofc it's good

fading stratus
#

they should make the protect damage like 25%

#

instead of full 100%

warm sky
#

I wouldn't use it anyway out of self respect tbh

fading stratus
#

fair

#

but even if you dont have the restricted you can just use rentals btw unless you'd wanna build your own team

#

assuming champions allows rentals

warm sky
fading stratus
#

hopefully yeah rentals would make the game way more accessible

warm sky
#

Also tbh I like building my own n teams

#

Used to breed eggs for hours when I did gen 6 VGC online

#

(was funny enough also a sun team iirc? I wanna say Zard Y + Venusaur, Intimidate Mixedmence

#

And I forgot the other 3

fading stratus
#

yeah mence is probs the only good mon that runs mixed in vg

#

ig talon too

#

talon ran overheat sometimes

warm sky
#

Iirc it was Draco + Heat Wave + EQ + ???

#

But again gen 6 was years ago so

ashen barn
warm sky
#

So idk, guess I'll repeat the team with a different sleep mon for a venusaur replacement lmao

#

Koraidon + brute bonnet maybe

fading stratus
#

venusaur works as well

ashen barn
#

Venu is legitimately one of the most infuriating things I've ever faced

#

Mainly because 75% sleep powder that goes 1st and can actually press a delete button into grasses

#

You call out the powder, you get sludge bomb, you call out bomb, you get slept

#

And back then venu zard Y was extremely scary

#

Iirc back then my team was Venu Zard Y + Chomp and a water starter I can't remember

fading stratus
#

you can probs play sth like this
you dont even need venu

ashen barn
#

The idea was fast pledge moves

fading stratus
#

swamp pledge is the most broken speed control in the game

ashen barn
#

Especially grass+fire for residual damage

#

And water grass

fading stratus
#

yeah swamp is water grass

ashen barn
#

My idea was something like:
Swamp out
Switch Zard Y in
Nuke button them

#

I think I was running a swampert for some reason

#

Because of rain matchups and sand

#

But again, this was 12 years ago

ashen barn
#

Mainly because speedy powders

fading stratus
#

I dont like less accurate moves

ashen barn
#

Understandable

#

Honestly, extremely relatable

fading stratus
#

else you play jumpluff

#

because it gets tailwind

ashen barn
#

I don't really like pluff

#

Mainly because it's actually made of paper

fading stratus
#

its probably the best chlorophyll mon

ashen barn
#

Yeah, I know

fading stratus
#

so is liligant you arent running anything else than sash in that either

ashen barn
#

But when you die, invested and all, to any priority...

#

Sash is what saves them

#

Wait. Pluff gets uturn doesn't it

fading stratus
#

you can run cloak technically
our lord and savior gen 9 for giving us good items

fading stratus
ashen barn
#

Yeah, and realistically

#

Pluff will die

fading stratus
#

also fast uturn is way less valuable

ashen barn
#

Sleep turn 1, wind turn 2
Or reverse order
You aren't getting to turn 3

fading stratus
#

especially in doubles

ashen barn
#

Honestly something I tried out was pluff with acrobatics for a slight chip once at 1hp and sash gone

fading stratus
#

you can probs play moves along the lines of
Sleep Powder
Protect
Encore
Sunny Day
Helping Hand
Leaf Storm
Tailwind
choose 4

ashen barn
#

It...wasn't good

fading stratus
#

understandable

ashen barn
#

If it had endeavor I'd play it

#

Like, get to 1hp, get wind up, and then get a mon to 1hp
