cinder fox
#

for a team that looks like it wants to be a bo

#

tbh if you wanted to you could use

#

bulk up taunt ekiller

median geyser
#

It's not a bo it's more so offense

cinder fox
#

u have a lando, bold ogre, and voyagetern supplementing korai + zac

#

that’s textbook bo

#

esp bold ogre

#

speaking of

median geyser
#

Welp I took that defensive core from ainz's offense

#

His team had a ditto

#

Thought voygaetern

#

Can also work

#

Baiting in koraidon

cinder fox
#

voyage is fine, im just saying lo ekiller doesnt really fit on this sorta structure because of how susceptible it is to dying quickly

#

which is why im suggesting either bu taunt ekiller or mix dd ground instead

median geyser
#

Bulky e killer

cinder fox
#

kk lemme get the spread

median geyser
#

I have it

cinder fox
#

i have a different one

median geyser
#

Oh sure

#

Send

cinder fox
#

not the dex spread

#

72 outspeeds max modest lunala, 176 ada kills korai at +1 after two helmet chip from lando

median geyser
#

Iam worried about ho oh mu

cinder fox
#

before factoring in rocks

#

u have

#

tera fire and taunt

#

plus defense boosts

#

if anything

median geyser
#

Hmm yea we are gonna be fine

cinder fox
#

hooh is the one scared of this ekiller

#

cuz bu ekiller literally turns hooh into setup fodder

median geyser
#

Will try this out

#

Maybe we can make the koraidon orb then

#

?

#

Cause I need some sort of immediate offense

cinder fox
#

korai is strong enough immediately without lo

#

i’ll get to yours after my exam

tired lotus
#

Oh, and when I said I am an HO kind of guy, that does not mean I will not try Balance teams too, which is what I think my team is

cinder fox
#

the mons and sets themselves aren’t bad, but some of these sets dont make sense in the context of the team

#

for example, hooh has no reason to be offensive and kyogre has no reason to be scarf

tired lotus
#

ho-oh I can change to defensive

cinder fox
#

rocks arcfairy is generally not great nowadays as you really want your fairy to be doing more than just being passive support

#

zacian also picks up a kill literally every time it switches in, plus trailblaze is a massive MASSIVE problem for this

tired lotus
cinder fox
#

well there’s a couple directions we can take this

#

first of all u definitely want twave bold ogre > scarf

#

twave origin pulse ice beam thunder

#

since ur using lo etern

tired lotus
cinder fox
#

boots

#

use the dex spread

#

it’s the first one listed for sv

tired lotus
#

and what about arceus fairy?

cinder fox
#

make arcfairy cm taunt

tired lotus
cinder fox
#

judgment recover

tired lotus
#

on the srtat dex?

#

oh, do I need to change the starts of fairyceus?

cinder fox
#

kyogre lures in etern to paralyze it, then cm fairy can stop it from clicking toxic since it’s now faster

#

u want lando here

tired lotus
cinder fox
#

therian

tired lotus
#

figured. what should I replace

#

korai and zacian are kinda what the team was based around, btw

cinder fox
#

either zac or hooh

tired lotus
cinder fox
#

use the dex spread for lando

#

also make arcfairy max speed timid > max def bold

tired lotus
cinder fox
tired lotus
#

Oh, mb, will fix that in a sec

cinder fox
#

also if you’re going defensive lando and twave ogre i’d say you want sd korai and trailblaze zac

tired lotus
#

Anything else?

cinder fox
#

and boots etern

tired lotus
#

I don't remember seeing boots etern on the dex

cinder fox
#

its just spdef etern

#

here

#

team with all my changes

#

ik it was a lot but fundamentally it keeps the korai zac bo idea that i assume you were trying to build

#

but it also adds some more speed control options with tb zac and twave ogre

cinder fox
#

bulky offense

tired lotus
#

Was going for a more balance team initally

cinder fox
#

zac is just an inherently offensive mon

tired lotus
#

The line between bo and balance is a bit blurry i guess

#

But ok bo it is

cinder fox
#

bo tends to be much more fast paced than balance

tired lotus
#

Oh yeah, I want fast paced

cinder fox
#

given you had korai zac lo etern offensive hooh scarf ogre

#

i would assume you were going for bo

tired lotus
#

Ok. Well thx man, got to give that team a try!

#

Ur not forced to

#

https://pokepast.es/62a2d193ce13bcdb so recently, I got this team looked at and adjusted by oreo guy. I have now tried it out, but I am seeing a glaring issue with it: no defog/hazard removal. A sticky web really hurts thee team if it gets placed down. Can anyone help me with that?

cinder fox
#

with that team specifically u have to play around webs rather than try to dedicate resources to removing it

tired lotus
cinder fox
#

u already have the tools here to trade well with webs, not to mention lead tera elec tb zac is an insanely bad mu for webs

#

for example u have twave ogre to trade with anything you want and lando to trade with zac

#

and also there have been actual tour games where tera electric tb zac has led vs ribombee and proceeded to literally 6-0

rose cargo
# tired lotus got it. thx

The main way you play is trailblaze into bee turn 1, Tera next turn and swords dance, swords dance again and hope you sweep

#

Actually nah

#

One swords dance is enough if they don’t have ndm

#

Because Lunala is there with shadow shield to take one hit

#

But Zac eats one attack before koing Lunala

#

Then after that’s it’s a matter if you can make some predictions on koraidon and co to sweep

#

But if you can get it right

#

It can be a turn 1 sweep

#

You can Tera elec turn 1 if you are predicting them to go stun spore turn 1 for some reason (bad play unless you know that your opponent isn’t gonna Tera or sub! And that you know your opponent is that set!)

#

But that other sequence is most opps most likely play, as that sequence if done right would leave you with enough HP not to be revenge killed

#

I’m pretty sure if bee is quiver dance a +1 moonblast into life orb espeed kos zacian and ends your sweep

exactly 0 of these Pokemon are viable in Ubers

I figured, but this is the only place I could fit anything with Psyche Up and a decent Ghost move.

jagged tartan
#

ok but what exactly are you psyching up to

#

any Pokemon that could conceivably have boosts that Mewtwo would want to copy also just OHKOes it

#

you also have expanding force on mewtwo without psychic terrain for it to benefit from

#

Contrary Malamar and Work Up Medicham

Plus, I did not do enough research on this. Gothitelle, while absolutely garbage, also does the exact same thing but outside of Ubers.

Rate this team, it has done well so far up to 1.3k (ive lost a few but those were mostly due to extremely bad luck as their crits went through my shields)

Im not sure to put which form of zacian in however

edit: i changed tera of black kyurem to fairy to be immune to dragon type attacks (main threat specifically koraidon)

# silver cloud https://pokepast.es/727443a2fdbc59b4 Rate this team, it has done well so far up...

Darkrai is not even Ubers viable, Zacian-C is far better, kyurem doesn’t fit on this team, regieleki is ass 98% of the time and the set you are using is ass as well, arceus wants a different spread and there are better 4th moves than sub, Gira-A is bad…

Only two mons you are using is considered to be viable and all of them are using suboptimal sets, I say a sample team might do much much better.

#

It’s low ladder

#

You face similarly bad teams

Also, arc would probably like Tera fire taunt over Tera normal sub

#

Pigbeeef I have returned with a new team
https://pokepast.es/3a56df89f3d99d5f

Im at about 1.5k elo rn, ive beaten top 100 players with this team

I feel like its really good personaly but i just need more opinions

From my experience

There can be Arceus/Kingambit endgame depending on the opponent, but both are really good

Ogerpon with trailblaze allows it to outspeed some pokemons to get surprise 1hkos on massive threats such as Koraidon and Tera Water + Rain boosted Ivy cudgel on some glass cannons

scarfed kyogre is also a nuke and defog giratina with 150+ bp draco and hex is really strong, with tera fairy to block potential scale shot sweepers

And mixed scarf Kyurem black to break both physical and special walls such as eternatus and dondozo

Edit: switched kyurem black with white

OK its really weak to stall

But yeah

steep tulip
#

No EVs zacian

rose cargo
#

I’m rusty

#

Rip

#

I am also slightly concerned about the stall MU

steep tulip
#

Easiest way about fixing this is to make it a bulkier hooh and taunt cm fairy imo

#

Trailblaze on Zacian-C here is also a bit winmore

#

You can obviously instantly win some games where you TB and tera t1 on a ribombee and then SD or whatever but a coverage move I think would go a long way

rose cargo
#

Lot of bee teams got ways to eat one hit after even a boost

for two, the hisuian arcanine and iron valiant are not viable

#

skymin is not viable either actually

#

you don't use this ndm set on hyper offense

#

and finally, you don't have an arceus forme or a koraidon or a zacian-c

this is meant to be mixed Ubers,
however i am interested how skymin could be better
i don't wanna run Arceus/Zacian/Koraidon because i wanna be a little different

Assuming this is meant to be a gimmick of stuff just to beat kyogre there’s nothing really to rate, it’s not viable for the metagame as is and making it viable would require removing whatever the theme is going for, which is generally why we don’t rate themed teams

# carmine remnant https://pokepast.es/7d5688ddca47c5f1

not an expert but I don't think that having two power herb users is necessary, also doesn't lunala works best with trickroom? it's too slow generally, ye you have agility but that needs set up, any knock off is destroying it before it does anything

cinder fox
#

gonna take both of these

cinder fox
#

the reason for this is because you have boots korai, mbeam etern, and you’re also pairing lunala+etern. this kind of structure seems to gravitate towards webs, but then your lunala is mbeam + you have an ekiller and a hazard lead

#

ignoring the fact that chomp isn’t viable bc it’s just a worse deos/glimm, ekiller and mbeam lunala dont really fit webs hos nearly as much as hazard hos

#

tldr; while the foundation is good, your sets seem to be going in different directions. it’s hard to build a competent entry level ho that isn’t just one of the samples, so i’d recommend just rolling with one of those

cinder fox
#

arcfairy, giratina, and etern aren’t really viable on stall so firstly i’d replace them with mons that are

#

wallceus/skarm > fairy, gliscor > gira, and ttar/clod > etern

carmine remnant
cinder fox
#

u can also just use a better lead

#

that can actually beat bee

#

like deos or glimm

#

and supplement it with actually good anti-webs sets like lo ekiller, gambit, tb zac etc

cinder fox
#

for example dozo should always be full physdef with boots > lefties and waterfall > liquidation for pp

#

bliss should always be cm > twave, twave does nothing except ensure you lose to every cmer in the tier

timid whale
#

made top 100 ladder with this, team went through a few swaps

deoxys-N -> deoxys-A -> deoxys-S -> grimmsnarl (screens good on offense duh)
kyu-b -> zacian -> zekrom (overall a pretty weird pick, zacian felt like it was leaving repetitive gaps through ekiller / gambit, mainly ho-oh and dozo. zekrom is a weird pick because its slower than kyub, which is already slow, but pre-tera electric coverage is great to have)
regieleki -> lando (need koraidon stop-gap)

a few deviations from stock kits

. went modest instead of jolly on ogre. it's slower but the only key matchup it loses is zacian, which i have checks for anyway, mostly lando.
. +atk instead of +def lando, the stock kit felt too passive and i feel the higher damage rolls on u-turn / eq help for chip. i would choose knock off over rock tomb in a heartbeat but they removed it lol
. LO arceus is there in the stock kit but not the top item. i feel it improves its ghost coverage, and allows it to use its greater bulk through screens + recover with more immediacy.
. dragon tail on zekrom is deadass just to stop enemies from phazing pain unless it misses pain . it also blocks some annoying set up walls though like necroDM / dozo.

rose cargo
#

Scarf ogre still works, but you need a zacian check that doesn’t fold a boost from Tera steel

#

They just go sd Tera steel and everything dies

Give Lunala Tera ghost and focus blast over moonblast or else you are gonna have a hard time with ekiller and gambit and everything else

There really are a billion different sets for SD, trust me…

I've heard good things about rayquaza on webs

since it's a webs threat immune to opposing webs

kind of a flyceus but you can use another arceus forme

Well, still C tier material at best and even then it isn’t really all that fast.

Without a defensive Tera you get hit with priority, without an offensive Tera you don’t break hard enough…

Honestly, I’d rather just use flyceus/other arc forme + korai Lunala zac pagos Etern etc

rose cargo
#

Way better than the slop we otherwise see

#

Personally don’t think there is enough Ho counterplay on this team but otherwise way better than the other “no legendary” slop

carmine remnant
#

But like

#

Tinglu+scarf korai+hooh+deo a isn't enough?

cinder fox
#

ting and scarf korai can help vs some ho but they also suck vs others

#

most notably, scarf korai is really not that good in the webs mu

#

cuz if webs are up, korai has no speed boost that’s supposed to give it an advantage vs ho, while it still keeps that awful move lock that makes choice mons generally not great in such an aggressive tier

cinder fox
#

aside from deoa, there’s no immediate offense

#

u have no long term wincon so you’re super reliant on it + spikes to actually break

carmine remnant
#

dont know the fix tho

#

the idea was switching around deoxys with spikes is very difficult

cinder fox
#

i think deoa is just a bad mon in general

#

it looks good on paper but having 0 defensive utility just sucks to use

#

even the most offensive mons need to have at least some capacity to take generally big hits

#

would you be willing to drop deoa on here for something else or do you not want to

cinder fox
#

the only thing that deoa truly brings to the table is the speed tier, but the value of this is relatively low because it struggles to ko zacian

#

which is the only meaningful advantage that 150 speed gives that zacian's 148 doesnt

cinder fox
carmine remnant
#

🔥

cinder fox
#

first and foremost, u need an actual zacian switchin

#

bc atm you have literally none

carmine remnant
#

yea

cinder fox
#

since u want spikes i think the best way to go would be groudon > ting

carmine remnant
#

hell yes alr

cinder fox
#

bc this also gives u more leeway vs ogre which you were quite weak to before

carmine remnant
#

yep

cinder fox
#

secondly i think making the fairy cm idef and korai into smth like boots sd is the way to go for the ho mu

carmine remnant
#

cinder fox
#

yes

carmine remnant
#

what about deo now

cinder fox

hooh is a pretty bad ground resist

cuz it just gets smashed by groundy stone edge

#

groundy is p much the only offensive ground in the tier so idt u need a ground immune nearly as much as you might in other tiers

#

they're good to have dont get me wrong but they're not imperative

#

oh one more thing

#

u prolly want twave > cm on ogre

and u 100% want roar on groudon

I built this team and had very good results with it, and I was thinking about using it in the tournament I’m going to participate in. However, I think I’ll need to make some changes, because Mega Mewtwo Y can 2HKO almost everything, and the team doesn’t have good Speed. I need advice on which Pokémon I should replace.

i didn't bother investing in speed

cuz after testing i still lost 1v1 to the pokemon i was trying to outspeed

#

i also dont like speed tying w other arc

why spread the EVs like that? why not all in on HP?

#

also Speed is crucial in the few matchups where you need to catch a tera ghost Pokemon and also for Jolly Necrozma-DM

hard lagoon
hard lagoon
steep tulip
#

you don't always have to face it when it's set up

#

jolly NDM is 278 at base while you're 276 uninvested

#

also there's tera ghosts in stuff like rayquaza which CAN run adamant

#

so the 56 EVs that the dex recommends I think are paramount

#

the ditto also feels like a winmore scenario for you; in balance matches you're not exactly abusing it outside of, say, scarf koraidon or zacian-c copying and in the stall mirror you're maybe copying a knock off from a tyranitar? that's about it

hard lagoon

i kinda keep it as insurance vs setup mons

you already have grimmsnarl for opposing HO so maybe try something that offers you outs to your bad MUs

lots of things

it’s missing koraidon for one

and it’s also missing checks to lots of key threats

kyogre, zacian, etern, lunala, and balloon gambit are the major ones

a big part of the problem is lugia and great tusk bc they’re both unviable

korai and landot over those two is much better

afterwards, you can go etern over one of hooh or zac

lime prairie
#

As it is it’s not optimal but it can be changed to be made good

#

The deoxys should be a hazard lead instead of screens since you’re rocky helmet, which frees up arceus to run either a different type or if you wanna keep fairyceus you can do cm taunt or cm iron defense. Since deoxys teams are inherently offensive it’d be best to make koraidon a swords dance set instead, whichever you like is probably fine

#

And volcarona is just unviable so that probably is the only non that has to be entirely changed

#

The natural replacement is lunala for another setup special attacker around the same speed tier but it’s just better and blocks rapid spin for the team

sudden drum
lime prairie
#

But there are other options like going arceus ghost > fairy and another mon instead of lunala

#

Yeah sorry volc is just not viable

#

Like you can use it if you really want

#

But it doesn’t have the power to succeed rn

sudden drum
lime prairie
#

The problem is a lot of things deal with it naturally

#

Mainly ho-oh but also scarf koraidon, kyogre, and generally the fact that it can’t set up on anything

#

Like if you bring it in on fairyceus you’re potentially getting thunder waved, taunted, roared, or power gem’d, and that’s like its best target

sudden drum

You could do eternatus or kyogre

Very anti meta rain team

Right after you deal with all physical attackers on the opposing team arceus steel basically grants victory

Pelipper checks koraidon
Arceus tera checks many physical sweeper assuming will o wisp hits
Hatterene counters hazard setters like ribombee
Specially invested kyogre with T-Wave can counter switch-ins like opposing kyogre and can survive 2 hits from dynamax cannon eternatus (i think, didnt do calcs but from matches)

Lead Skarmory is bad; you instantly lose to nearly every lead, not least of which is Deo S

Though I suppose the point is that you're fully immune to Spikes

#

Toxic on Latias isnt that good; its best switch ins are Steel types and Blissey

#

You also just hard lose to Ho-Oh, especially Substitute Ho-Oh

primal nest
#

makes sense, thanks

#

my assumption was that leads would all be either spikes or spikes counterleads

#

i wasn't worried about spikes leads of course and spikes counterleads seemed like they'd be too varied to get a broadly good matchup spread into

#

toxic tias i can change for whatever, though it does happen to let me beat hooh 1v1 sans sub

#

my plan vs sub hooh was go lugia but perhaps sfire does too much for that to work

#

or they can lastmon me

cinder fox

the leads are deos and deos counterleads

yeah exactly

cinder fox
#

you see ogre in the lead slot sometimes on qwil teams or teams that have literally no other option

best advice I can give you is to try Ubers UU out, where some of your choices are much more viable (chi-yu in particular) but I don't think Goodra, Pallosand and Chesnaught have any niche outside of much lower tiers...

I think they got rid of the ladder

still selectable in the teambuilder

#

and the UM room has resources and tournaments for it etc

you can challenge others you can play in tournaments on PS and on smogon

trying to fill all 6 slots with favorites means you gotta take the L at times

#

considering the changes are super minimal there’s not much i can rate without turning it into the sample so i’d just go with that (keep this lunala set tho)

cinder fox
#

zekrom isn’t really viable in this tier cuz it’s outclassed by koraidon and kyub (latter of which is super fringe as-is), sets up on pretty much nothing, and struggles to get past its checks even when boosted

I shall require assistance for this one

cinder fox
#

looks ok except for a few things

#

firstly i dont see why dialga has power gem

#

instead of thunder

#

without thunder this looks rlly weak to ogre

#

second, instead of twave roar i think tera poison demonceus is the way to go

#

it's better vs sd korai and cm arcs + u can lure hooh w trick and pivot into it w etern and ur own hooh

#

dtail > fire spin on etern, i do not see what fire spin is doing for you at all and dtail gives you more outs vs cm ogre, lunala, and cm taunt arcs

#

and speaking of lunala, tera dark > grass on etern

#

which also helps vs ghosty and demon ndm cheese shit

#

tera ghost > dragon on korai otherwise ur a bit weak to ekiller

#

tera fairy > stellar on dia, helps vs fc korai

#

a lot of that is because ur using ting and ur only true korai switchin is fairyceus

#

hooh doesnt count cuz it dies to +2 scale shot

#

so the first thing i’d do is spikesdon > ting

#

i personally think ting is really not that good cuz it just sucks against p much every top threat

jagged tartan
#

B-b-but it is good against Eternatus and Lunala!

cinder fox
#

don on the other hand gives u more options vs korai zac and the sun is able to limit ogre

cinder fox
#

anyways. what i’d recommend is making don double hazard w roar and tera water, that way u resist fire/water/ice/steel moves from the big three and it also helps vs other guys like calyi, and also check korai and zac (other physical guys too but those are the main ones) more reliably cuz u dont need to rely on precimiss as much and can phaze zac even if it clicks some bs like tera fly or sub

#

waterceus > fairy, having korai+water+don+rayray means ogre can’t just brainlessly click its moves. it’s also another zac check, can also toss around broken twaves to help ray, and can phaze korai/zac

#

judg twave phaze recover, its ur choice on if u want dtail or roar. roar can phaze zac and tera fairy guys while dtail cannot, but dtail can phaze taunt korai which roar cannot

#

tera dark > fairy on hooh, helps vs lunala and ghosty which ur a bit weak to without ting

#

hatt > zac. it gives u a physdef fairy to help check korai, broken nuzzle, hwish, but most importantly bounces back rocks which i’d say is essential for band ray to function. as a bonus it improves the webs, spikesdon, and stall mus whereas before u were 100% reliant on ray to break stall. either lefties to avoid getting 2hkoed by spikesdon or helmet for extra chip vs korai, your choice. nuzzle/psynoise/painsplit/hwish are the moves

#

iyw u can make korai sd with hatt but its not necessary

This team is unfortunately extremely underpowered in the Ubers tier

stiff phoenix

The best solution is to scrap it and rebuild

stiff phoenix
#

And what’s so underpowered about it? BST?

jagged tartan
#

Pretty much yeah

stiff phoenix
#

Ok

jagged tartan
#

That or the fact that you lack Pokemon that can switch into common threats in the metagame

stiff phoenix
#

I don’t really know what that means😅

jagged tartan
#

Ok, so there are two main ways to build Ubers teams if you're a beginner

#

Go all-out with hyper offense, or pack offense as needed but also have some Pokemon that can take hits

#

Your set of 6 is neither strong enough nor able to take hits from other strong attackers

stiff phoenix
#

I see

I'd recommend that you take a look at the SV Ubers sample teams so you can get a sense for what Pokemon are worth using

lime prairie
# fleet pulsar https://pokepast.es/6d830ca22d7cbbce new to ubers, usually play ou

sry just seeing this now but this is a fine start, all the mons are good and they form fairly natural cores. I think with pagos on this tho you can use a greedy ndm, something like max speed max attack and an item like covert cloak, metal coat, lum berry, twisted spoon if you go photon sets, etc. Since pagos is rocks fairyceus can also drop it for cm or power gem depending on what you put on the ndm. I think smth optional also is tera grass ho-oh as your ogre mu is mid, but it's playable with korai and prio

#

having double slow steels would be the issue with this team if anything, and gambit isn't super needed with pagos as a ghost answer, so changing that out for a lot of things could work as well

#

stuff like kyogre, etern, or groudon stand out as ideas to me

rn this team looks like it threw together mons and sets without having a real gameplan or central focus

so i wanna know what the central focus u were trying to build with was so we can take that further

instead of smth like hooh

#

or ogre

no?

not at all

#

in other gens sure but this gen is very lacking in removal with gira being the only “good” mon that has fog

and even then i hate gira in general cuz its slow and weak to basically every top threat while having no recovery

#

smth like ogre is far better

i also understand u wanted to try double fairy but truthfully idt this is the structure for it

i got to top 500 yesterday with this team alone

#

whats messed up about it tho

cinder fox
pastel epoch
#

why not :(

cinder fox
#

volcanion is wholly outclassed by better mons, including but not limited to kyogre and hooh. mola is incredibly passive and thus exploitable for good players, compounded by the fact that it isn’t a hard check to anything. if ur goal is to have a soft check vs lots of things, hooh is just better. ursaluna is slow, has lots of weaknesses, and is outclassed by literally every special attacker in the tier. clodsire is useless outside of checking fairyceus, it sucks at checking ogre since it’s completely passive + ogre only needs a single cm to win the 1v1

#

and gira is not a mon i would recommend to anyone bc it’s slow, has no recovery, and is weak to basically every top mon without tera

pastel epoch
#

dont most ppl do scarf

#

and it doesnt need cm one water spout and its dead

vs this team zac gets MANY opportunities to sd once

#

clod is not a zac check

trust me

#

zac has a 25% chacne of 2hko clodsire

#

after leftovers recovery

#

and clod has a 100% kill for zac

#

they wouldnt waste tera on clodsire anyways

#

even if they tera first turn then toxic comes out
