and p much any physical attacker that gets knocked

#

regardless this is a stall core with hamurott and cinderace for some reason so I'd say get rid of those two lol

Would be the first time ever I try out Gen 9 OU (I started and stayed with NatDex Ubers). How does it look? (Goal is Bulky offense with Darkrai functioning as a fast special wallbreaker for the team,Molt to punish potential U-Turns and will-O-Wisp for stuff like Kingambit. Zama as late game sweeper,Tusk as hazard clearer and potential midgame setup. And Ogerpon is just whenever she's needed)

timid mango
#

looks pretty good but id say ask someone whos better than me

brisk zenith
#

Hmm. Oh,I'd also wanna ask what I should shore up. Mainly tera

#

Poison would be interesting on Darkrai,since Fighting/Fairy resistance,and he's naturally good against Psychic in the first place

#

Actually,now that I think about it...that also covers his bug weakness

timid mango
#

poison is a good tera type

#

boosts sludge bomb and shores his weaknesses

tacit bluff
#

poison is the standard yeah

I tried to create a balance team

#

but I kinda get bulldozed over by CM Primirina

#

and the Dhengo hazard stack match up can get a little spooky

north anvil
#

was trying to build a team around first impression slither wing, ended up with a pivot+status team

rancid shale
#

why are 50% of the teams here posted by 1% of the discord

fluid nimbus
fluid nimbus
#

yea

north anvil
#

any bad matchups i should be careful of?

fluid nimbus
#

and by well i mean teams that get me to 1500-1600 consistently after making a new account to test team out ^

fluid nimbus
north anvil
#

okie, i like playing singles but stall really grinds on my gears tbh

fluid nimbus
#

yea normally they arent too bad to play depending on the team you have but usually if my first 5-10 turns are bad against stalls

#

i just forfeit out tbh

tacit bluff
#

Ngl idk why meowscarada is on that team

#

But even so the stall matchup can be helped by just running some of the various anti stall techs in the tier

hot dome
#

we appreciate you trying to help out, but this team is flawed in many ways

fluid nimbus
hot dome

tacit bluff
#

It's not exerting enough firepower for a webs team

fluid nimbus
#

is it flawed in many ways too?

tacit bluff
#

BO I assume?

#

It's not bad

#

Scizor is kinda odd but everything else is pretty standard

fluid nimbus
tacit bluff
#

I'd make Lando the rocker and tusk more offensive tbh but that's just me

fluid nimbus
#

actually i built the team around scarf lando lol

#

really like the guy

#
  • the speed controller for the team
tacit bluff
#

I don't fw scarf Lando this gen but that's mostly personal preference

fluid nimbus
#

as for scizor is the knock off for the team + he has been really good against some of the tiers meta picks

#

in this team was either scizor or roaring moon as knock off id say

#

but roaring doesnt fit too well in this comp

hot dome
#

Pecharunt on a team that already has two pivots + no fighting weak pokemon isn’t the best pick

#

Not really sure why you need a knock off user for this team when you aren’t stacking hazards excepts rocks

#

Wogerpon mu is really bad

fluid nimbus
#

you dont like parting shot + intimidate 😮

hot dome
#

+2 252 Atk Wellspring Mask Tera Water Ogerpon-Wellspring-Tera Ivy Cudgel vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Pecharunt: 328-386 (86.3 - 101.5%) -- 12.5% chance to OHKO

#

Your woger mu is one unlucky crit/any amount of chip away from falling over

fluid nimbus
#

could be but then we check with thunder clap / or scarf u-turn no?

hot dome
#

Also if you go for the recover you risk losing to encore

#

Pecha is most definitely not a woger counter

#

A shaky check, maybe, but it’s only a few teammates away from crushing Pecha

#

Especially since your method of handling all physical threats seems to be Pecha + Lando

fluid nimbus
#

when i built the team with scarf lando, the two mons i found to be great partners were prima and pecha lol

hot dome
#

Good for you ig, doesn’t change the fact that this team has flaws

#

O yeah your Darkrai mu is atrocious as well

#

Knock less tusk is iffy and opens you up to struggling to spin against opposing hstack teams with their ghost/helmet users

#

And when the rest of your team is live or die by those hazards getting removed it can become an issue quick

fluid nimbus
hot dome
#

None of which can switch in

#

All of which get worn down by hazards incredibly quickly

fluid nimbus
#

i do agree with the knock off

hot dome
#

Scizor really doesn’t do a lot for this team here

fluid nimbus
#

so youre saying -scizor, -pecha +gholdengo

hot dome
#

Since you’re lo bp you get worn down real fast and can probably only switch into Kyurem 2-3 times before you take too much chip

hot dome
#

Actually I think Scizor can work as a band breaker instead

#

Yeah banded solves a few issues here, probably swap out Lando for something like Zamazenta/Pult and you’re looking a lot better

fluid nimbus
hot dome
#

Idbp isn’t bad either

#

Gives you an alternative win con that can capitalize off of Scizor weakening phys def checks

fluid nimbus
#

alright ill give it a try, and probably roar as 4th move right

hot dome
#

Yeah but it’s pretty flexible so feel free to mess around with it

fluid nimbus
hot dome
#

If you lose to bu tusk with Pecha + Primarina + Zamazenta roar that’s on you ngl

fluid nimbus
#

meant more for like hazards and such

#

but could go hdb on tusk instead of helm

fluid nimbus
hot dome
#

It’s still kicking

hot dome
fluid nimbus
#

pinkacross told me its BO, Offense, HO the top 3 atm

hot dome
#

Eh ho kinda fishy

tacit bluff
#

Max physical bulk pecha can pretty reliably check Ogerpon

#

Slow pivot set basically

hot dome
#

A check, sure

#

But not a counter

#

And especially for woger, you need more than one check

#

Unless ig Tera grass pecha

tacit bluff
#

I agree with that but my point was pecha can be a reasonably effective waterpon check with enough defensive investment

#

Since malignant chain is not something pon wants to take

hot dome
#

And I said counter

tacit bluff
#

Yeah countering it is a different story

#

Vileplume time clearly

hot dome
#

So why are you arguing

#

Ah mb

#

Thought they said wogerpon check not counter

but i cant rlly stop rapid spin

so wont hamurott be useless if those hazards are gonna get court changed by boots max speed cinder?

runic nebula
timid mango

keep it like this and try to hiy 1.5k

timid mango
hot dome
#

this team is not live or die by hazards

timid mango
#

boots and tusk and corv and cinder are popular

#

aand cinder would give me a huge disadvantage

hot dome
#

we know what the metagame looks like

#

cinderace would give you a huge advantage because you have moth and bolt to exploit it

#

hazards is not the end all be all for this team

timid mango

they are nice, but you are fine without them

so i can remove them

so stop worrying abot hazards with 4 tera ghost mons

i can remove hamurott or keep him

you dont have dnite

@timid mango You have been posting the same 2-3 teams the past few days. When people post here we expect them to put some work into creating a team, playtesting it initially, integrate feedback, and then taking the time to playtest it again with changes. You come back here frequently asking for advice, sometimes don't implement it, then come back the next day with the same thing even though you ignored previous advice.

Also please read the rules. We do not rate existing sample teams. #comp-general message Smashing two sample teams together and posting it here isn't allowed. You are taking up our raters time which could instead be used to rate teams for people who are going to take our raters advice into consideration and playtest what they've made.

i want to use rm

#

i went psyshock ival for a better glowking and moth mu

#

aura sphere for the gambit

#

and i wanna use rm

#

id considered bolt but rm is really fun

low phoenix
#

Roaring moon is mostly a hyper offense mon

#

It’s best used as a sweeper to set up and overwhelm

#

like everyday

#

im not even kidding

Who is prav33n

#

If he is able to use moon bulky offense good for him

cold cosmos

ocean bane
#

Better mu vs zama and valiant, helps to keep rocks up and fairy resist too

#

It can spam twave too

#

I also dont like non sball valiant, not being able to hit dengo looks awful even if u have rmoon and gambit on the team

#

Psyshock is a cool thing tho

#

For moth/gking as u said and even for some clod

#

For glimm too

misty basin
#

Is hazard less hyper offence any good

#

I got a team but I'm afraid I'm just gonna get roasted here

cold cosmos
#

also provides pivot

#

i think a team like this appreciates pivots

#

just what i think though

ocean bane
#

So u dont let lando get chipped that easily

#

But the thing is just testing it ig, if it works that way is fine

#

Another i had not in mind was the tspikes mu, without gking it could be a bit tough so maybe gking better in some scenarios

#

And w spamming twave easily i meant on things gking cant do it that easily such as oger or gambit

cold cosmos
#

yeah...

hot dome
#

But 6 offensive threats no setter kinda mid

misty basin

so i could go for dual screens with a prankster mon?

Also why Tera blast fairy Rmoon? Most dragons are chunked heavily by knock/acro and don’t want to switch in the first place, same with dark types (except ting lu but even then not a lot of people are using ting lu to counter moon), and zamazenta is damaged more by acro than Tera blast fairy anyways

thats more to do with my playstyle then anything else

broken silo
#

ok so im the problem lmfao

#

hi

tacit bluff
#

just my personal preference leans to more offensive sets

#

I usually try to slot spikes onto these teams to rack up more hazard chip, usually through a mon like hamurott

that could be an idea

Not strictly necessary tho

You could also wait for an actual rater tho

dedicate fully to one style

eager plaza
hot dome
#

in this case, it looks to be the hyper offense style, so you should drop pecharunt

hot dome
#

honestlyh this is incredibly similar to the vert team with minor changes (not a jab at you just a funny coincidence) so it might just be best if you pivot towards that

#

if you dont want to pivot towards that, you should at least slot on iron moth for a tspikes absorber, and then maybe pick up dragonite as your last sweeper for some defensive utility?

eager plaza

what do yall think

low phoenix

Pokepaste

#

Anyhow Glimmora only fits on hyper offense which this doesn’t look like

#

Give pult its hdb set

#

Make cinderace it’s standard pivot set with court change for hazard removal

#

You can perhaps change Glimmora to a Lando t for a better rocks setter on bulky offense

#

Give prim one of its smogon sets I’d personally go with either assault vest as a bulky special pivot or calm mind sub noise for some stall fuckery

#

You don’t need meow and Corv tbh prob change them to some bulky offense mons like raging bolt and kingambit

im honestly fine with my team

im currently trying to see if i can give one or two of my mons a ground move

https://pokepast.es/a93a8ce77884ddd9
not super experienced w cg teambuilding, tried to go for a sticky web ho thing, araquanid + gholdengo is the webs core, then kinda just slapped together a bunch of sweepers? tusk for hazard control, have booster valiant in case the webs plan doesnt work and i need a backup sweper, then crown/bolt are sweepers

tacit bluff
#

this is p decent, I'd make tusk a bulk up set tho and maybe gleam over focus blast on ghold to compliment tera fairy? oh and also if you wanna use the stored power shenanigans iirc latias is a bit better at that then iron crown, iron crown is a better mon overall but its usually an offensive pivot

vagrant steeple
#

thanks! the sample set is cm/agi/sp/aura sphere but i think agi is pretty droppable on this team due to webs, what should i replace it with?

tacit bluff
#

You could maybe go with draining kiss instead, personally I'd keep agility to rack up the stored power damage tho also into the various boots mons that won't care for webs such as dragapult which can threaten huge damage with either of its stabs

#

Oh yeah valiant has a mixed set on smogdex you can switch the ev spread to that and you should be good to go

vagrant steeple
#

is moth > valiant an option

tacit bluff
#

It would bolster the fairy if you swap iron crown out, so it's an option, especially cuz the most relevant offensive fairy in enamorus is immune to webs

#

Try out both, you could also try out destiny bond val to trade for your opponents sweeper

Moth is better valiant on webs

Mainly because you need something to beat up Cinderace and moth does it excellently

Second: This stall team is not viable due to the lack of hazard absorbers + checks to certain threats (chiefly Kyurem), and I would recommend using the sample stall teams for nwo: stall is a notoriously hard archetype to build this generation, and its options are extrmeely limited for viable teams

#

Settle on one style: either stick to the hyper offense (and change some of their sets), or pivot to the bulky offense with crown + valiant and drop the rest, or pivot to the balance/fat with ting lu and ig rotom if you really want to force it

#

Reminder to test your teams on ladder before sending them here: it can help expose a lot of flaws/areas of improvement with just a few games

timid mango
#

alr

#

i used the rmoon ival and crown due to them doing 2 3 type cores

#

fighting dakr psychic

#

dragon fairy steel

hot dome
#

dont think about 3 type cores they're really not all that

#

build around team styles

timid mango
#

id say bulky offence

#

alr have a ho team

#

wait lemme check my teams

#

nvm i would like to pivot to balance

#

alr got a bo and ho

hot dome
#

frankly atp you would strip the team so much itd be better to run a sample

#

since you would essentially be building off of ting lu and no other mons

timid mango
#

so bo?

hot dome
#

build around the core of crown + valiant

#

this isn't a teambuilding channel so i wont build the entire team for you but you should probably go some kinda core of lando crown val etc

timid mango
#

alr

#

also in smogon sets

#

why does defencive lando use e power

#

and not eq

#

it has a higher attack stat

hot dome
#

ep hits targets with defense boosting moves ie zamazenta and bu tusk

#

(you hsould read the analyses for the sets they explain why)

timid mango
timid mango
#

also ive finished with the bo approach

#

everything in the team resists each other

kingambit switches to icrown

landot switches to help king

you get 6-0ed by waterpon

#

please test your teams before posting them here

timid mango

mb

#

ill try dragonite > kingambit

#

as it says in rfaq command it checks waterpon

damn no i need gambit

imma try pecha > alom

Use pokepaste. Use the dex to help you pick better sets; you have very bad sets like specs nasty plot and spinless sash tusk

Look over items for each pokemon

No specs on ghold or sash on tusk

wraith abyss
#

Hmm

#

What should I change it with tho

tepid hazel
#

If body press is your only attack on corv run iron defense not bulk up

tepid hazel
#

There are other choices though

wraith abyss
tepid hazel
#

Yes

#

Also gliscor needs facade and tusk needs rapid spin

wraith abyss
#

I removed and added protect

tepid hazel
#

There’s multiple gliscor sets and yours is kind of an awkward combination

wraith abyss
#

💀

tepid hazel
#

Check the official smogon site and you can see a list of good sets

#

For instance, look up “gliscor smogon SV”

whats the purpose of bu on corvi if u only have body press

muted chasm
muted chasm
hot dome
#

there are no mons that really replicate the role of serperior and reuniclus

muted chasm
#

What exactly is a “Core” when it comes to team building? What makes Slowbro Galar such a good pivot/what is a pivot beyond using switch moves?

hot dome
#

but there are mons that outshine their general niche

#

and this is more a question for #comp-general than sv ou rates

muted chasm
#

Oh right my bad

hot dome
#

as these are general competitive questions as opposed to team questions

muted chasm
#

Also fair enough, I’ll try and transfer to there

timid mango
#

for gliscor just use spikes eq prot toxic

#

prot is mandatory so no knock off

#

toxic helps cripple physical attackers

#

eq is good dmg and no taunt

#

spikes are spikes

timid mango
#

chat what are good water type counters

#

all i have to beat water is a pecharunt for waterpon

low phoenix
#

Waterpon dragons zapdos sinistcha niche options like amoongus wo chien

timid mango

tbh sinistcha might work to replace pecha

now i see why im not supposed to post a team that much

#

actually imma try sinistcha

#

good moves strength sap

mortal edge
#

This webs team is too fire for the eyes to see.

low phoenix
#

You don’t even have a sun setter take take advantage of leavanny

rapid agate
#

i mean the speed tier alone is worth it in some cases

#

i think off sun you may want to just stick with sash and run like

#

the same spread but just sash

low phoenix
#

i feel like ribombee has the role of a fast webs setter already

#

leavanny has coverage and surprise but thats it

timid mango
#

isnt araq like way bulkier

#

you can webs

#

and like hinder a monuseless with custap endure endeavor

low phoenix
#

araq has a positive matchup against all hazard control

timid mango
#

compared to webs and dioe

#

id say araq better

low phoenix
#

great tusk iron treads cinderace doesnt like getting surfed/liquidated

#

hamurott if you are using a bug attack

#

even no brave bird corviknight

#

and g weezing

mortal edge
#

Leavanny can afford to not run Sash because of ej pack pivot though it doesn't worry too much.

#

also ej pack is way more consistent than sash because of the prelevance of hazards in this game.

#

Also for the love of god Leavanny and Araquanid fills two different niches.

#

One is a bulky Sticky Web setter who can run Custap to overcome it's speed weakness and retaliate against leads that would usually beat Ribombee. Another is a fast Sticky Web setter who wants Eject Pack Leaf Storm to flip matchups and uses it's coverage moves and speed to speedcreep mons and threaten them.

timid mango
#

they have the same role but diffrtent niche then right?

timid mango
clever rover
#

SV OU is so cancer

#

Maybe I should just stick to Ubers instead

#

Anyways some hazard stack I tried to make

misty basin
#

i'd rather use Glimmora to stack hazards

#

gholdengo is cool though hazard removal blocking

alpine hornet
alpine hornet
misty basin
#

got it

tacit bluff
#

Yeah please don't run glimmora as your hazard stacker on any hstack team that isn't offence

low phoenix
#

I wanted to build around tankchomp but can’t help feeling they my matchup into knock tusk is meh

#

I had great Tusk over meow originally but I wanted a second speedy mon that can knock too so maybe boots rai can fit over meow?

timid mango
#

wouldnt meow beat tusk?

#

like a flower trick ohkos or smt

alpine hornet
#

meow is a fraud

#

unless u run band meow

#

and even then ftrick has a chance to not ohko

#

between ftrick and taxel they have to guess which button to click but

#

meow does not solve a poor tusk mu per se

tacit bluff
low phoenix
#

meow doing less dmg to tusk than tusk doing dmg to meow is crazy

tacit bluff

Tusk does have a mild case of stupid physical bulk

It should be on way more sun teams

how do I finish this tr team

any suggestions

hot dome
worthy geode

uh

is there a dou rmt?

there is

its js untouched

its just that fewer players means requests happen less often

Hmmmm attempt 2 at trying to snuff out ogerpon W this time using ogerpon W on the team.

https://pokepast.es/e2020d6200e07828

My main worry is if the team is too slow? Most fast mons I need to worry about seem to already be dealt with, val is dealt with by priority + AV iron horns(whatever it's name is called), ting lu beats out moth and pult, pecharunt beats out zamazenta, rillaboom helps in beating scarf samm

quaint rose
#

Could someone be kind enough to teach me how to make a team?

tacit bluff
alpine furnace
#

Scarf? It should be AV

hot dome
#

whast the thinking behind thils team? you're lacking speed control except for rillaboom, this looks like a weird balance team but not with a lot of the common balance staples, and this team is still weak to wogerpon

alpine furnace
hot dome
#

pecharunt really isnt that good on balance

#

atp you have better ghost types and also aren't as afraid of fighting types so there's not as much a reason to run pecharunt

alpine furnace
#

It fits better on BO or is it mostly just an offensive mon.

hot dome
#

i mean its a defensive pivot

#

but it fits on bulky offense because its whole gimmick is "quick pivot that can blank fighting types and provide opportunities for fellow dark types"

#

which isn't as necessary on balance since you already have quite a few fall backs against fighting types

#
  • balance doesn't dark spam to the same degree
alpine furnace
#

So something better would be maybe forming it around like pecharunt + kingambit, maybe zamazenta as well to continue to help against ogerpon W and help with speed.

hot dome
#

yes

alpine furnace
hot dome
#

still dont know why you're using av rillaboom

tacit bluff
#

Yh rilla is usually banded

#

It has some insane breaking power with a choice band

#

Meanwhile AV is not really offering much

alpine furnace
#

Got it, banded boom, anything else need changing?

timid mango
#

band stab grassy glide with adamant has insane damage

hot dome
#

like genuinely why are you running rillaboom

#

also your lack of actual spdef tankers is a struggle esp against moth kyurem wake bolt etc

timid mango
#

i just saw the team

#

wakes having a field day

#

sadly thats the same for my team

hot dome
#

kyurem's having a field day

alpine furnace
#

I've realized that, thinking of a way to combat that.

timid mango
#

Water fire coverage is real good

hot dome
#

drop rillaboom, slot on gking, swap out tusk for a dark type breaker like darkrai

#

bam

timid mango
#

hits so kuch mons

alpine furnace
#

Vested glowking or hdb pivot. I assume pivot due to no defog.

hot dome
#

yes

timid mango
#

btw relax

#

if you manage to add kyurem

#

glowking can set snow for khu

#

letting him tank more

#

and safely set up

hot dome
#

that is not relevant to this team

#

ddance kyurem is not a good fit forthis team

timid mango
#

oh

#

mb

hot dome
#

please don't give advice if you're not experienced with the tier

timid mango
#

Also what are good wake counters

#

or does ival beat it

hot dome
#

why is this marked ag

timid mango
#

idk

#

changing to ou

hot dome
#

this team isn't very comfortable into wake but has ways out with val moon and crown, though its still a rough mu

timid mango
#

tbf i do outspeed wake

#

and lemme run a calc

hot dome
#

anyways if you have mu specific questions ask #comp-general

timid mango
#

outspeed and ohko

timid mango
#

but a walking wake can switch out

#

and kill my ival

#

so thats why itd rough

hot dome
#

like i said, ask general

timid mango
#

alr

or leave it as is

hmmm..

dont you have like a ground resist and a ground immunity

tacit bluff
#

What's the resist 😭

runic nebula
#

The resist is belief

tacit bluff
#

True

#

Regardless idt it's that tusk weak

#

Clef kinda answers it

#

You could maybe swap one of your pivots for the birds tho

low phoenix
tacit bluff
#

Any bird that isn't CORV

D TIER MON

RU FOR IT 🗣️

#

(I'm just a hater)

tacit bluff
#

Like what does it do here that gliscor doesn't do better

#

That isn't phasing

#

Cuz that's kinda it

#

And it's the only one doing the phasing anyway 😭

low phoenix
#

Yea tbh I just wanted to see if Tankchomp could actually work

#

And if I could make garchomp work in ou

#

Is sd chomp valid tho

#

If I used Lando t I wouldn’t have to use torn t and swap av ting Lu to a real Mon like kingambit 😭

#

I want to start experimenting with more niche mons that’s why I m asking

timid mango
#

try unbound hoopa

#

if you manage to pull it off correctly

#

its a monster

tacit bluff
#

I just think kyurem better at that role tho

#

thats the thing its not a bad mon its just a case of why

#

its hard to justify

low phoenix
#

I mean I see a lot of SCL players use niche mons like chomp

#

I assume it’s to surprise their opponent

#

And from my experience sd chomp can legit sweep if you aren’t careful

tacit bluff
#

garchomp has a place

#

on certain teams its good but again it has so much competition for its role

#

its still garchomp at the end of the day

low phoenix
#

Yea ig

#

Hard to use chomp when tusk/Lando t/scor exists

cold cosmos
tacit bluff
#

sorry saw glowking with boots and just assumed pivot

#

nasty plot lowk crazy

#

it prob works somewhere but you already have bolt ngl

#

meanwhile molt answers tusk cause burns are funny

low phoenix
tacit bluff
#

I mean sure kinda

#

knock is annoying but if molt is carrying hurricane tusk drops

#

plus trading wisp on tusk for knock on molt to me isn't worth it

cold cosmos
#

hmmmm

#

so which one do u prefer

#

#2?

tacit bluff
#

I prefer 2 personally

#

or do i just pick up a sample

tacit bluff
#

test before posting not vice versa 😭

#

this looks ok tho

timid mango
#

so its good or do i just use a sample

#

So like do i use a sample instead or is it a usable/good team

#

its a VoltTurn core that has 1 main goal

#

find an opportunity for rmoon to setup and sweep

#

all the pivoting can make small progress

#

and maybe picking up 1 kill

#

all mons resist each others weaknesses

#

and a backup set up mon in ival

#

iCrown helps with fsight and v switch into ival to pressure dark types to switch out so they dint get stab moonblasted

#

if its a gambit that goes in then i dont go for ival and instead go for tusk or LandoT

#

for eq

#

maybe rmoon

#

if i wall said dark type

#

Also is the team usable or do i just opt for a sample

cold cosmos
#

"looks ok tho"

timid mango
#

i mean like from 1/10

timid mango
#

just beat a stall user and lost to someone else bc he crit

tacit bluff
#

what

timid mango
#

ignore what i said abt stall

#

can you rate my team?

tacit bluff
#

it got deleted

timid mango
#

oh

#

what rating from 1/10 u think my team gets?

tacit bluff
#

ig 6-7 its like p standard offence, I'm personally not a huge fan of iron crown as a pivot but thats moreso personal preference its fine here and gives you a good fairy resist

timid mango
#

damn i finally made a good team

#

what are ways to get it to an 8?

#

thats like a set change

tacit bluff
#

it would need to be some minor optimisations tbh, I can't really see where you'd go at a glance with said optimisations

#

you can only iron out the small flaws in a team with playtesting ngl

im no pro

#

but why are there 2 dragon types

tacit bluff
#

type overlap is fine

timid mango
#

wouldnt switching bolt to a special defencive mon like blissey or maybe a bulky spD mon like hatt or glowking

#

or is there some tech im far missing

tacit bluff
#

blissey just makes you lose momentum

humble elk
timid mango
#

fairy would help resist kyurems dragon and fairy weaknessiirc

and hatt kinda makes cinderace's job a bit harder

timid mango
humble elk
timid mango
#

im not that good i was giving thoughts so dont rlly listen to my advice

#

but glowking would help kyurem no?

humble elk
timid mango
#

snow would make kyurem thicke

humble elk
tacit bluff
#

regardless this team is eh like I get the idea but you're kinda lacking in the firepower department beyond kyurem to me

raging bolt without booster energy isn't that threatening and iron valiant has some kinda odd EVs for a mixed set, like this team looks like it would kinda struggle to break past some stuff if Kyurem goes down, enam also can defo give you some trouble

I'd say swap pecha for glowking who can help with spreading even more status and then for me personally I'd go with Zama over valiant and then smth like boots rockpon over raging bolt to threaten the birds

timid mango
#

also go for the boots glowking pivot set

#

setting ice for kyurem gonna be rlly helpful

#

bc of the def buff

#

and safely gets kyurem on the field

tacit bluff
#

yeah thats a nice pairing

timid mango
#

also rockpon is gonna delete them birds

tacit bluff
#

kyurem already sorta beats them but the rest of the team doesn't appreciate their presence

timid mango
#

glowking > pecha

humble elk
timid mango
#

rockpon > rbolt

#

why tera ice btw?

#

tera ice on kyurem

#

pretty sure glowking quad fresists fighting

#

and kills with f sight

#

you can f sight

#

then pivot to kyurem

#

zama has to switch

#

freest ddance

#

if zama stays

#

u tank

tacit bluff
humble elk
#

I cant really swithc into zama well without taking a big hit of damage

tacit bluff
#

alternatively cinderace>moltres and iron valiant>tusk for hazards

go to glowking

f sight

especially if smth like enam is tryna set up for a sweep so you can shatter it in return with ivy cudgel

your jyurem is prob gonna sweep more

you kinda wanna minimise the impact of a stray crit as much as possible but sometimes it just loses you the game
