Yeah pretty much
The anime has like 4 protagonists, 2 are girls and 2 are boys, but both boys get everything
Dot got a Quaquaval after like 200 episodes of Quaxwel, a Tinkaton with no screentime and a Gholdengo that never battles

I was there around the time they searching Entei so not far enough myself to tell

If I'm being honest, Zygarde probably would fare far better with Dynamax than Mega Evolution.
But that's just my guess

dynamax zygarde wasnt really good
spice rivet
I dont think Zygarde was good with Dmax
hasty anchor
Ah
fading stratus
the best of the trio during dynamax format was surprisingly Yveltal
spice rivet
Max Airstream go BBRRRRR
hasty anchor
It's just, when its special ability activates, it regains all its HP
...And that's a lot of HP when you got Dynamax going
spice rivet
Also that too lol
hasty anchor
Finding ways to work in Mega Evolution in Champions is a thing, yeah, but I'm still mulling over the rest when it's added.
spice rivet
It's just, when its special ability activates, it regains all its HP
Also, Ice Rider Caly was really good, a x4 weakness folded it no matter how much HP it had
And Zacian Play Rough

You go in thinking it's not gonna be too hard

As for Dynamax in Champions, I assume it'll be more of the same as it was in Sword/Shield
fading stratus
I'm so ready for Gmax Zard again
hasty anchor
Meaning stuff like Gyrados, Rhypherior or Charizard (G-Max) would be considered
fading stratus
hasty anchor
But now I'm thinking, if there's new things to use, what wasn't in Sword/Shield that could really work with Dynamax?
fading stratus
Gmax zard was the best pokemon in whole sword/shield symph
hasty anchor
I mean
Let's be real
Leon and Charizard were one unbeatable pair!
Ok so, let's see, what were the best cases for Dynamax?
I remember Gyrados loved going under it, cause it meant it could actually use a flying type attacking move that wasn't impractical
And the stats leant very well towards it
fading stratus
one of the best dynamax attacker was actually physical thundurus
hasty anchor
Raijin got hands
fading stratus
but it worked
hasty anchor
Or Azure Dragon, whatever you want to call Thundrus
Funnily enough, Rampardos could be an alright mon to go for Dynamax?
The way Max Rockfall works, it doesn't matter if they do have a focus sash
...And with that much ATK backing it up
fading stratus
not rampardos but rhyperior was a pretty good mon in early format
paired with dusclops
hasty anchor
Oh yeah definitely
hasty anchor
...Also man, I really wish Corviknight got it better for Dynamax
G-Max Corviknight is fine, but you give up Max Airstream for G-Max Wind Rage
And removing things from the field work well enough, the flat bonus to speed's too good a deal
pseudo goblet
So what I miss
fading stratus
you missed physical thundurus zane

Gen 7, I did not play actual VGC, but its where I got into the Doubles Format grinding the hell out of the SM Battle Tree. I played a team of:
Mega Metagross
Incin (With Intimidate and broken Pinch Berry)
Tapu Fini
A final mon I could never really lock down, but it swapped between Dnite, Zapdos, Garchomp and Gastrodon iirc
fading stratus
ah
gotcha
I started playing vg starting SM or atleast gotten into Vg because i had a friend who I used to play with not anymore tho he doesnt play anympre
hasty anchor
Dnite, Zapdos
Nice pick
Garchomp
Lame pick
Gastrodon
Nevermind, nice picks.
spice rivet
It got me to my 1st 50 streak in Doubles, I think I capped at 55 wins. I remember the opponent that ended the streak vividly too. The opponent ran 4 Electric types and Metagross missed a Zen Headbutt and I didnt have a ground on the team so I got folded rip.
I did manage a 50 streak in the XY Battle Maison with Mega Zard Y, Scizor and Dnite

It does make you wonder how driven by spite some of these teams can be

I also wasnt using a spreadsheet or looking up sets or anything

Thank god Mega Metagross gets Psychic Fangs now lol

Thank god Mega Metagross gets Psychic Fangs now lol
gone the days of using meteor mash stomping tantrum

Also in base Sun, every certain number of wins you got you would face off against major NPCs. Plummeria was always the easiest because I would Protect Metagross, she would try to use Mega Gengar to KO it and then my Incin would Darkest Lariat the Mega Gengar for the OHKO
This is the stuff my mind retains for no goddamn reason lmao

Most people aren't the same when they catch a glimpse of such realms beyond our comprehension, or its denizens.
Both characters are fine, really.
But, yeah, UltraSun/UltraMoon just feels like the weakest series of "third" games.
You could at least excuse Emerald with it tying Ruby/Sapphire together.
And Platinum just straight up fixes Diamond/Pearl, to the point that honestly, there's no contest to what you should play given the pair had so, so many other issues with the leap to the DS
Or just play Heartgold/Soulsilver.

Not a fakemon designer or something by any means, so this may seem pretty bleh. But, I was bored and figured I'd jot it down

@fading stratus so realistically how many incineroar sets would i need?
Since it costs points to change the set every single time keeping dupes would just be better for common mons like it i think

Oh, it may learn it.
Just, given how Outrage makes anything using it one fairy-type switch in from being in optimal "hit me" position, I just didn't mention it
...Raging Fury on the other hand...?
I was gonna make Rajang first, but i figured making a Fire/Poison type would be better for creativity now than... I guess Fighting/Electric?
Guessing that'd fit Rajang if so.
Also we already got one angy monkey, so...

Nature?
hasty anchor
It would be a super surprise if Incineroar actually forgone all of that utility stuff
...Is there any surprises like that in high profile battle events?
fading stratus
Surely natures can be changed
hasty anchor
Like, you expect Incineroar to fake things out, but instead it's gonna stay in the fray and trounce stuff
golden lance
Kinda assumed it was a gliscor scenario where its either a phys wall, special wall, or counterpick mode
hasty anchor
I guess that'd only be a possibility in single battles, where... eh, it's not as good.
pseudo goblet
What is wrong with them 
fading stratus
I'm not sweating too much for customisation costing points
It shouldn't be that bad if you play

Actually, how does Tiger Mask work in single battle mode?

Incin is shit in singles

Btw bolt, can we do Shedinja team
hasty anchor
Ahhh
fading stratus
Fun fact Zane
Shedinja is actually a very good mon
But there's a bit BUT attached to it
hasty anchor
When you can disrespect Kyogre, yeah that's a given
fading stratus
It's only very good in restricted formats
golden lance
Forgive the shitty cropping
golden lance
It's only very good in restricted formats
Whale check
fading stratus
Because a lot of restricted can't hit it
hasty anchor
I don't think Kyogre learns anything to deal with Shedinja
...Or anything worth having.
fading stratus
Like kyogre Xerneas zacian zamazenta miraidon solgaleo

Xerneas coverage is so funny looking at it

Cause, when's the last time you seen Kyogre use Ancientpower?

It just runs thunderbolt bc it cant do anything else

How you gonna combine them lmao
fading stratus
Ultra necrozma was like 5th best restricted of the format it was legal in
golden lance
If dusk mane always costs 2 box slots i'm commiting rainfire
fading stratus
It was like
- Primal Don
- Xerneas
- Primal Ogre
- Lunala
- Maybe Mega Ray or Ultra Necro
I'm not sweating too much for ultra necro
If primals are legal
Because primals in general are way stronger

Primal Regigigas

Surprise, Regigigas was the same all those years ago

Bigger flex than having shiny Salazzle
Cause with SV you can bypass Salazzle odds but not Salandit
golden lance
Funny

Maybe hunt another Tornadus and Landorus as bait and see any DLC mon would bute
Or have a middle step and use Tornadus to bait a Koraidon/Miraidon bite
golden lance
Rn my chain is like
Tornadus>ting lu> zacian > we are currently here
Trying to get a chi yu but could also attempt a koraidon, they seem to be interchangable

I picked up a thing or two from spending all my free time trading for gold rares in ptcg online 
pseudo goblet
Meanwhile I do some weird stuff in Skyblock
Basically I either
Take advantage of people not knowing certain items obtain method and sell them wayyyy more than it should, which the price is set by the people and not me so I do nothing wrong
Buy a ton of valuable item from people for cheap THEN I immediately sell the items back to the people for bit more cash, I wont gain much but still free lol
Then again, 17 million cost and comes back with 18 million
fading stratus
oh yeah chocc

@fading stratus we should probably start getting the tapus right?
At least koko and lele
fading stratus
Fini was the best tapu
Back in gen 7
It was
- Fini
- Koko
- Lele
- Rillaboom
Fini is also my favourite tapu
The concept of a defensive terrain setter was so cool
golden lance
Yea fini's good i just think it has too much competition now
golden lance
The other 2 are mr ignores protect and ms 100 bp move with high crit ratio
fading stratus
That high crit chance is okay but noone even thinks oger is good because it can crit a bit more than normal
golden lance
Yea ik
I just wanted to keep ot recognizable with not typing like
"it gets access to utility such as encore while having a solid defensive profile etc etc"
fading stratus
Fini is way versatile mon btw
We've seen scarf specs lefties
Pinch berries
Probs not pinch berries anymore
fading stratus
Yeah
golden lance
Bro imagine if champs bring type gems back
golden lance
I did forget 90% of the experience but
What was magic room again? All items are turned off?
golden lance
I remember the sky drop tech that shit was siiiiiiiiick
And then gen 8 cut the move
fading stratus
Soak Fini was also funny af
golden lance
But yea should probably get them for champs
fading stratus
Depends on if they'll make tapus legal tbh
golden lance
They were in 8, its not unreasonable
fading stratus
I do have a Koko tho
Haven't gotten fini yet
I've been asking for fini for the whole day
Also chocc
Be sure to get articuno
golden lance
That 4 ice move shit is not real come on
fading stratus
Articuno atales was a legit archetype
I swear that shit has more regional tops than mfing idk heatran
fading stratus
Yeah
golden lance
Guess peope dont fancy pokeshifter mewtwos
Also thinking if i should get like
TR/psyspam cores
golden lance
The answer is probably yes but man those two put me to sleep
fading stratus
Indeedee
And farigiraf
You should also get like
The paradoxes
I have everything except like great tusk
Atleast all good ones

Any future ones i need? Was hoping zane could fix me the past ones
golden lance
What were ppl doing with jugulis?
fading stratus
Booster speed tailwind
It's good when there's a fast 4x weak to dark Mon on the format
You know what I mean
Also ig iron psyspammer

Was it more incarnate or therian?
fading stratus
Lando got a pretty big surge in usage in gen 9 right?
Lando T was good back when incin wasn't in the game
Lando I was good after that
Lando T still sees decent play nowadays
Just not as often
It sees play in like HO teams
Where you tailwind + banded eq

Lando I to beat the shit out of miraidon/incin

I should actually look more into tecnical play

For me the only archetypes in vgc are trick room, tailwind, and bad

Literally balance
If you boot up reg F every third game is balance
Oh yeah chocc btw
Be sure to get the hoenn trio
You'll have 2 good restricted pairs
