Gotcha! What would you suggest for the terras? And just out of curiosity what does waterpon have for better mu/s over rilla?

feral canopy
#

There Is No Ground Type

#

team is also very slow

#

u prob need to change alo and rilla for something

#

or maybe just

#

make alo/rilla scarf lando

bleak solstice
#

maybe scarf lando for alo and the waterpon for rilla that s&l suggested?

feral canopy
#

Yes that

#

sorta works

#

means urn weak. into lop tho

#

solution is zapdos over torn

# sonic kraken thinkin of swapping out Dondozo

this is a good bulky team thats trying to be a HO team. so i would just pick one. sounds like since your trying to swap out dozo and lu you want more a of a offence team in wich case i would recomend swaping them out. maybe a glimora could work for hazerds and a ogerpon as aother water type.

#

just dont add deffencive mons again

why do you have eject button hatt and sash samurott on a defensive team?

# iron tangle https://pokepast.es/e36070b89cc50a12

This is my take on an offence team, mostly just saw some synergy between them (except gliscor, I think I’ll drop it for a better lead) with a balance of physical and special threats, Val carries moonblast as an off pick to catch fighting/dark resists off, Mega Lop for physical firepower with Tapu Lele as a special nuke

#

Volc and Boulder as cleanup/reverse sweep

iron tangle
cold fog
iron tangle
#

Aight I can consider that

cold fog
#

replace moonblast for encore on valient

limber crypt
#

im not a huge fan of boulder on non ho i thibk u can ferro over it since no steel

iron tangle
#

So what archetype would this team be

#

I just slapped it together with no real vision I’ll be honest

limber crypt
#

given that ur more reliant on getting ur mons in and hitting before ur opponent does id say its just offense

iron tangle
#

And how’d you rate this team 1-10

#

Could it get me to a decent elo level

spice gust
#

What do yall think of a breaking swipe gouging fire spirit break iron val core team

#

or is there anything I should replace?

crude stump
#

If you wanna go offensive which is where glimmora is usually seen, you shouldn’t put gking and garg there

#

If you wanna go balance, then you need at least ground and electric immunity and speed control here

#

Glim doesn’t fit on a balance

#

Put smth like lando over glim and make gking boots + chilling reception

#

probably smth fast over garg

Wanted to see what the bulky gouging fire set was all about. Paired it with a special wallbreaker in diance mega. Rillaboom is just for good prio and to beat urshifu who is not the easiest to beat. AV torn is a solid special def wall, lando serves as a phys wall. Urshifu is speed control. I know this isnt super well optimized but if anyones got any suggestions as to how to possibly build a better gouging fire core, or how to improve the team lmk! So far has been alright, but think its mainly been due to gouging fire cheese kekw

#

I use showdown and have been for awhile with this team

feral canopy
#

Yes but this format has nothing to do with monotype teams

#

especially with restrictions

feral canopy
#

if you want actual advice

#

half the team is unviable and all of them have bad sets

#

with the 3 viable mons there is no synergy between them so you will have to stick with 1-2 at the max

#

depending on what those are (one or 2 of diancie, clefable, or maybe hatt)

#

the rest go completely differently

#

and it does not involve fairy types

#

this is the only help your going to get here

this team feels as if its very weak to ogerpon-wellspring and cornerstone, considering every time they come into the field they at BEST force chip, at worst snowball out of control. pretty poor weather mu into both sun and rain aswell, id say bulky gfire is a good fit on offence/grassy terrain teams so you might want to base a team off of that archetype instead rather than bo, where gfire's defensive utility isnt as needed due to you having 2 pivots already

do u rlly need

surely band is fine enough

u got enough to keep the defensive load spread

nice having another breaker to wear down and pressure zap

bleak solstice
#

Tusk also makes me 3x fairy weak too

feral canopy
#

u have zor

#

and other stuff depending on the fairy

#

go lando for ur ground

#

def lando

#

teied and true on these lucha offenses anyways

#

over washer prob

bleak solstice
#

Rocks defensive lando?

feral canopy
#

Yes

#

also i think u want boots for gouginh

#

and prob tera steel

#

dont want to get rked by lele

#

or owned by fs

#

im ngl im also not too big on non eq gouging but idk if that works then ig so

#

maybe u cld use smtg like dd 3a with a defensive tera

#

aka do what bolt does and break shit firsr for lucha or rilla to clean

bleak solstice
#

I like the idea of dd 3 attacks

#

I originally wanted to try to test out that breaking swipe set that everyone was bitching about in gen 9 ou but that probably doesnt work well here

maybe not idk

#

im not the biggest fan of gouging in general anyways

feel like bulky sets do 0 damage and band only works on sun

Ou I like those both, I'll test with the dwb set first

swift nova
feral canopy
#

Thats one thing

#

but ur also walled by a lot

#

due to lack of coverage

#

so u cant break well

#

ur bulky enough to dd twice too a lot of the time too

#

so not like u need the priority for much

#

ur forced into tera normal too for damage

#

so if something teras ur weak as shit

#

and normal isnt the best defensive type ether

#

when u have the option of steel or water or poison

swift nova

That makes a lot of sense actually

It's already come into play in the games I've played since changes

What are you trying to build?

hushed osprey
#

a team around buzzswole cause

hardy violet
#

Double hazard removal really isn’t necessary unless ur running a team that relies on something like zard y

#

I would just go boots on buzzwole

#

U have drain punch + roost

#

So ur gonna not have issues with longevity

#

And rillaboom

#

I’m tripping balls

#

I thought I saw a Defog lando on that 💀

#

Mb

#

Cyclizar still ass tho

hushed osprey
hardy violet
#

are u goinmg for only rapid spin

#

to not defog ur grassy terrain

hushed osprey
#

defog is not go for grassy terrian
i need it for buzzswole and tran

hardy violet
#

treads would work int hat slot better

#

u have pivot volt switch

#

rocks

#

spim

#

and then whatever attack for 4th slot

#

also i would 100% run physically defensive gliscor over special

feral canopy
#

why in the world would u run physdef gliscor

#

the main stuff you want to eat and check are special attackers

hardy violet
#

idk what typa of gliscor u be using bro

#

u dont wanna be sitting on a gking ice beam even if ur spdef

#

ur taking like 75%

crude stump
#

you dont take ice beam and there's 0 ice beam gking in natdex

#

use spdef

feral canopy
#

ok there is ice beam gking in nd

#

but

#

u also easily take it with spd

#

0 SpA Slowking-Galar Ice Beam vs. 244 HP / 252+ SpD Gliscor: 244-288 (69.3 - 81.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Poison Heal

#

there isnt a lot of ice beam but there is a lot of hp ice

#

252 SpA Tapu Koko Hidden Power Ice vs. 244 HP / 252+ SpD Gliscor: 184-220 (52.2 - 62.5%) -- 71.9% chance to 2HKO after Poison Heal

0 offensive and defensive synergy here

if you want to play around buzzwole

i think you need to make it defensive at least

cuz rn it walls nothing

so what to delete from the team?

anything you wanna keep besides buzzwole...?

bleak solstice

This is a cool one i’ve been messing with, av iron crown is pretty chill, soaks a lot of special attacks and hits pretty hard with terrain up. Lando because its required Iron valiant is iron valiant. Koko for terrain, mega sciz for prio, urshifu set is kinda gimmicky. Been thinking about switching some stuff around. Def urshifu, a bit too gimmicky and maybe terrain is not needed. Ival could be a diff set too. Definitely also weak to other setup mons. Lemme know if you got any suggestions! Maybe i’ll start throwing some of these in the team bazzar soon

this was a specs crown team that was para spikes to help enable it

fine w/ dropping it

like SD eq outrage/stone edge stealth rock

then dragonium or rockinium z for the respective move you pick

feral canopy
#

this team looks horrid

#

BAD ZAPDOS SET

#

theres no reason for def zapdos here anyway u have tankchomp

feral canopy
#

this also loses to volc

#

and weavile

#

drop lele or gking

#

probably gking

#

or both even, u already have speed control with lop

#

something like this possibly

#

altho im not big on tankchomp in this economy, no point having 3 breakers all pressure the same thing

#

a structure like this could also work

#

a lot of different mons but the roles and roughly the same, and gel better w the team

feral canopy
#

walled by big ferro

#

all the mons js gonna come back in and set hazards again

no longer fits the meta

dusk flare

fastest mon koko is pretty abusable and gking mola is a pretty mediocre defensive core as well; this also lacks stealth rock and a good stopgap to ogerpon

crude stump
#

although not faster but darkrai looks horrifying here

dusk flare
#

i think scarf lando > glisc, rocks ferro > gking, and pex > mola is alright; make gking tera dragon, kyurem tera ice, and glisc tera fairy as well

crude stump
#

Same. Scarf lando with defog over gliscor here and ferro over gking, but i think both pex and mola can work here. It depends on if you wanna click a slow pivot or better defensive core

lofty frost
dusk flare

altho without gking i think kyu should just be boots now

replace something for a wellspring check too

look at this guy

so I should replace Charizard with Zama?

should I use choice band?

u need a dark resist so prov yeah

all right

then replace wellspring with waterpon check

i could go bullet punch over toxic

on sciz

fast totem

Yea but also switch the evs to something more physically defensive since that's scizor's strength

Gen8, wanted to try a lopunny team cause never used it before. Tried making it more aligned to offense since its a style im comfortable with. Liked the idea of specs latios so I put it there. Originally it was qd volc. Would like to know if there are any issues i can patch up. Some that i know of is blaziken, though it just wears itself down to fake out/glide range after a while. 2/6 mons are also susceptible to ttar trapping 😭

tusk is a questionable slot on anything not named ho because it doesn't really do much distinct from lando aside from spin; i'd just make it a fog lando here + make ferro stealth rock > spikes

ferro should be using a spread of 252 HP / 40 Def / 216 SpD with an impish nature as well, let's it pivot in on stuff like ogerpon and dnite more frequently

dnite can just be a galarian slowking as this lacks counterplay to iron valiant otherwise, and im pretty sure you forgot evs on mega mawile. make that knock off > fire fang as well, more useful for basically any slower target (ferro and sciz dislike it as well anw)

https://pokepast.es/75e0d3a2b63823c7
Put this team together last night, it's a combination of the best parts of the last few teams I've come up with
I think it's a decent amount more coherent than the rillaboom ones I like and it's got a pretty positive win rate around 1500-1550 on ladder so far

#

Good matchups into pretty much all weather and stall
I think it's a bit weak to offense and stuff like psyspam but if I play well zama can easily steal a game against a team who's only got physical attackers or steel resists left

brave valve
# hollow basalt Good matchups into pretty much all weather and stall I think it's a bit weak to ...

I think there’s a couple things you can change about this like for example, Lando would be better than Tusk for a team like this, as Tusk is only seen on offensive teams
also glow king should always run regenerator as curious medicine is kind of useless in singles. also a move like slack off or thunder wave might be a better choice than toxic spikes. if you want some sort of hazard on the enemy team, you could try replacing taunt with stealth rock on heatran
