to ease the aforementioned mu

plucky hare
#

So is there still some hard pokemon to beat with my team?

#

And i need to know one thing

#

How do u know when to tera?

alpine hornet
#

u dont want specs val on ho, cm is much better here, id also make tusk rocks over knock here

#

could also test bulk up tusk

plucky hare
#

Please do not abreviate i don't understand

#

What what is HO what is CM

round portal
#

ho is hyper offence

plucky hare
#

Changed valiant by changing item to booster energy removed vacuum wave to put calm mind

alpine hornet
plucky hare
#

I have psychic

alpine hornet
#

er psychic yh

#

drop that for encore

plucky hare
#

Done

#

So any other major issues?

alpine hornet
#

psychic hits nothing of note bar toxapex and encore is just general good utility

alpine hornet
#

you’re a little weak to opposing moth, so maybe go psychic on moth over energy ball and tera fairy?

plucky hare
#

Aight

alpine hornet
#

other than that looks good though

plucky hare

I was thinking something like scarf lando or scarf tusk as well, but defog sounded like a good idea at the time, so i switched in corv bc steel/flying + defogger looked pretty great

wooden linden
#

you could go with cinderace

#

just put rocks on ting instead of spikes

#

lets you spread burns and pivot

#

also you prob should add ice coverage on zama or dnite

#

bc gliscor is very annoying for the team

silver river
low phoenix

With encore

#

i could do shadow ball

#

though i need smth better for molt

#

also prim

low phoenix
#

Hmm

#

Looks fine to me

#

Your team

#

Then

wooden linden
#

maybe vs molt i could just not get haxed with flame body

#

but prim is smth that is really hard for the team

#

wellspring too

low phoenix
#

Prob just be careful around them

#

Or try dd Kyurem over dragonite

I can see how moltres would be a problem for this team. I will try adding head smash to tusk. Should I also give it tera fire to prevent burns?

mmmmmmmm

#

this is odd

#

so you have a lorb enam with healing wish, enam usually doesn't run lorb because of its hazard weakness but also healing wish is on its scarf set typically

#

but said set is used on hyper offence which this, just isn't?

#

this is more of a balance team if anything

#

there's also some odd set choices

#

there's no reason for pecharunt to use poison gas

all of these sets are unviable

Bulky balance feels good but has some inconstancy issues (stone edge) any tips?

nocturne sable
#

That’s for specs kyu

arctic frigate

Specs kyu litterally just has to click blizzard

alpine hornet
#

no bro moreso than specs kyu dd kyu is the problem

#

as it tera grounds and gets plus two and wins

#

can people stop making comments if they dont know wjat theyre talking abt 🥀

frail arrow
#

Kyrum and water pon should be banned lowkey

north nimbus
#

not the place to talk this about!

alpine hornet
#

imo the most simple fix is just going lead taunt dual hazards lu, encore over dbond on ival and perhaps go cm, make pon sd pr and drop zap for something like dnite

#

oh and make hatt hwisj

north nimbus
#

me thinks we can also wait, to see their opinion if they would like to keep it "balanced" archetype in a way, cause i do agree with those changes but not sure if they would be fine changing the playstyle they had in mind

alpine hornet
#

this is true! could def also be taken like a drop ival and hatt sort of route

north nimbus
#

cause this lowkey gets bullied by opposing gambit, even more so if it has low kick

#

but the main issue is def kyurem still!

Prima set is fine but is Pecha + Scarf Darkrai not sufficient for physical valiant?

you also get rlly mogged by Moltres I would sprinkle a tera fire somewhere in here, on tusk or gambit

I think slowking can be an offensive knocker like weavile

#

Give some more breaking power too

#

Also I think standard dragon dance is better o no your kind of team

Because you need commit Tera to dnite for that current set

this set is a movie tho

i rlly wanna build around it

#

@north nimbus @tough garnet it's been 3000 years

#

keep in mind I've basically skipped this entire gen up until like this week so this might be kinda rough

#

seems this cannot switch around wake tho

#

would like to keep the same offensive mons but I'm fine w changing anything as long as tusk stays

Plus other waters

north nimbus

#

Tru

north nimbus
#

Going bu tusk could revise this to offense a lot easier me thinks

#

But idk if that’s what you want

jaunty granite
#

I would like band but I can be open

#

Like I said I have skipped almost the entire tier so I’m learning from the ground up again

#

Would be open

#

Could I still slot in supercell tho

north nimbus
#

Ahh well cb also lets opposing tusk and zama in freely which is like the opposite of what you want generally

#

Supercell is ngl

#

Bad

jaunty granite
#

Rip

north nimbus
#

feels like it hits nothing that the other moves don’t already

#

And if ur so concerned for waters u always got other slots to help it out

jaunty granite
#

Mostly waters yea but also corv molt

elder knoll
#

hitting Corv

#

is always nice

tough garnet
north nimbus
#

that’s true and all but then again I wouldn’t use it on cb set fwiw

jaunty granite
#

Mb

tough garnet
#

All good

jaunty granite
#

Think it could work on BU mayb?

north nimbus
#

slight maybe cause still things like stabs, spinner, knock, and rapid spin are just immensely better options tho it also depends later on towards a team if additional pressure is needed or not

jaunty granite
north nimbus
jaunty granite
#

Well let’s say we make it typical BU then, what ideas do you have

north nimbus
#

generally, most common stuff is bu, headlong rush, ice spinner, rapid spin being the most common, last but cc and knock are usable then again sometimes moves can be played around to hit what you need but generally you cover everything with the 3 attacks

#

rapid spin is nice for well the additional speed boost and hazard removal for teams as always

jaunty granite
#

Spin makes most sense in my head yea

#

It’s just max max w like boots right

north nimbus
#

ye well u go max hp generally just to get a free speed boost from booster

jaunty granite
#

O it’s booster right

#

Aight bet

#

How about the rest of the team then?

#

I might need a better wake answer

jaunty granite

Deo or lando?

Wide lens ace is interesting but ace would usually want boots

Cinderace is usually just there for speed control tho and yes I hate the hjk miss and the recoil fainting
I changed psychic to energy ball
And yeah I'll change the drill peck on corv to roost
It's not a random garchomp tho. It's literally my wall breaker, and it usually breaks through so many teams

#

Sooo is this new team more viable? Is it optimal?

carmine oak

#

I see thanks

carmine oak
#

also you have 2 non boots rock spikes weaks with only fog corv as hazard removal

#

you could get cooked by ghold hstack

cinder + corv is a nice hazard removing core

there's a specs kyu team that uses that

I hit 1200 with Garchomp and y'all want me to remove it 💔

with iron head eq dclaw you get hard walled by corv

you get rkilled by a lot of stuff

3 dragons is too much ig...

carmine oak

#

Obv yes

carmine oak
#

idk how to use sd chomp or how good it is

since it doesnt have scale shot

but i would say drop iron head for a fire move

#

and then go tera fire

#

u still resist ice and you can break through corv

dire plaza
#

I'm gonna get cooked by Hatterene

I fear

#

Or maybe tera fire is good

makes sense av hatt fwiw you would use more agressive teams tbh, but considering ur focus is woger + av hatt not sure what you would liek for the team to go

you might be better leaning more aggressive with something like a Lando

#

Probably have to replace hat for slowking in that case cause Moonblast 6-0s

#

And this is basically just that one kyurem team with an ogerpon if I do that, not that anything’s wrong with that

#

Just thought hatt oger could work better ig

north nimbus
#

hatt oger is like an okie combo not to say it isnt useable, just not something you would think right away

small rock
#

Yeah fair

elder knoll
#

why not make this more aggressive

#

drop ace for another more offensive guy

#

Lando + Hat makes a decent defensive core for volt turn

north nimbus
#

was going to say if they do decide to commit to still wanting to use the team best alternative over ace would def be zama imo

elder knoll
#

yeah more speed control that way

#

this build reminds me of those old

#

Samu + Lando offenses

small rock
elder knoll
#

if you play offensively enough it should be okay

#

I’d also think about switching the Pult set to maybe specs

small rock
#

I think pult has to go if I go zama over ace tbh

north nimbus
#

iron moth makes the most logical sense tbh > pult

small rock
#

Yeah fair honestly

#

I was trying to avoid fiary dance tbh lol

#

But it does just look like what the last slot needs

north nimbus
small rock
#

I went psyshock to hit gloking

#

The initial team didnt like gloking very much but now nuzzle would projably be worth for oger and zama

summer cloak
#

Psyshock is also nice to 1v1 moth

#

Its a choice rly

north nimbus
#

nuzzle is generally good like 99% of the time, cause paralyzing major threats is huge for most if not every team, since games can come down on para hax or the reduced speed

small rock
north nimbus
#

also also if u feel like av hatt isnt helping as much, just go eject button hwish hatt but yeah,

small rock
#

Idk if that’s the right way to think about it tho

small rock
#

Idk if hatt applys enough or any pressure at all tho to make that work

north nimbus
#

fwiw most dragons dont like coming into woger, at risk at getting knocked or potentially catch pr, then again u turn is also free momentum expecting dragons

Doesn’t that apply to all woger checks pretty much tho?

I’m not saying the team is bad is just what are you aiming to do with it, cause it has an idea but it also ooosk like a clump of mess fwiw

Ok thanks so much 🙏

north nimbus

Ngl I feel you might need to drop dengo or samu here, iron valiant ngl just clicks buttons agaisnt this team

pallid coral
#

Dengo counters it

#

Scarf

#

Make it rain

north nimbus
#

That’s not

pallid coral
#

So I add a perch

north nimbus
#

Something that can take a hit from valiant, just clicks a move and profits majority if not all the time

pallid coral
#

Or something

#

Any ideas

north nimbus
#

Probably do like

pallid coral
#

Do I replace dengo or samu?

north nimbus

Might want to consider Tera ghost on tusk

New [Gen 9] OU RMT @north nimbus, @tacit bluff, @alpine hornet, @low phoenix, @empty verge, @trail whale, @unkempt bough, @echo rampart. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.

north nimbus
iron crag
#

I was initially struggling with Raging Bolt, Finch suggested I use tera ground on Dnite for it, and that fixed that matchup

#

I'm wanting to know if any small changes like that could improve problematic matchups

north nimbus
#

first thing come to mind would be adding fire punch to dnite would make sense to help vs corv and scizor but that still doesnt vastly improve garg and dozo mu

#

no taunters or encore to disrupt these heavily passive mons

iron crag
#

that's an idea

#

Fox has encore

#

she's just there to provide veil but every now and then she gets a kill

north nimbus
#

well regarding ur main offensive mons that are prob going to be around more frequent in battle comapre to the fox

iron crag
#

yeah true

north nimbus
#

adding woger comes to mind cause it vastly helps pressure everything listed

#

and u just have overloaded breakers vs corv

iron crag
#

Waterpon? I think that's a fine idea but I need to take into account someone would need to be cut and I feel like I like these 6 mons

#

I know Waterpon is quite good, was on my team in dlc1 where I got 119th on ladder

#

that team was Ninetales-A/Gambit/Waterpon/Moth/Tusk/Valiant

#

most successful team I've ever built

#

things had to change since Gliscor came back

#

and hypnosis got banned

north nimbus
#

then again i would prob just do eball > psychic on valiant fwiw

iron crag
#

you mean Moth?

north nimbus
#

ye

iron crag
#

that's another idea

#

uhhh I might consider that seriously

north nimbus
#

and if that doesnt overall improve the mu

#

then u might want to heavily consider woger

iron crag
#

the issue is then my options are limited basically to Dnite if I want to counter opposing moths

elder knoll
#

spdef Dozo cooks this team

iron crag
#

but I mean I shouldn't be relying on a speed tie anyway

#

but besides that, eball on Moth is something I think I'll try

north nimbus
iron crag
#

I already have fighting coverage in gleam

#

I've got 2 EQ users for poison stuff

#

yeah, I'll try it out over psychic

#

helps the stall matchup right?

#

because it hurts Dozo

#

thanks

#

any other suggestions? I'm strongly considering fire punch on dnite

#

but that'd make raging bolt a bit more awkward to kill

north nimbus
#

it should be fpunch dnite fwiw cause then corv and scizor will still be annoying

iron crag
#

if it weren't for him I'd be all for fire tera + fire punch Dnite

#

I'm going to consider that

#

thanks for your help

#

was that it? no other suggestions? How do my EVs look?

north nimbus
#

and like i said heavily consider woger

iron crag
#

I will, I just don't think anyone here is replaceable

#

if I had a 7th mon Pon would be it

elder knoll
#

Darkrai is

north nimbus
#

literally rai

elder knoll
#

put Psyshock on it at least

#

or Tera fighting focus blast

north nimbus
#

oh wait is this not psyshock rai

iron crag
#

psyshock rai you say?

north nimbus
#

tho

iron crag
#

what's the set?

north nimbus
#

i still think woger would fit better here

iron crag
#

and what does psyshock hit?

north nimbus
#

literally every fat mon you can think off

#

but yeh woger would just make are ur problems go away tbh

elder knoll
#

Psyshock beats Blissey

#

you still hardlose to Lu

#

and Spdef Dozo

#

but if you refuse to change anyone it’s the best solution

#

This teams MU is abysmal into stall unless you make a Mon swap

#

I think

iron crag
#

Tell me the psychock Darkrai set please? My internet is having issues

north nimbus
#

just drop beam

iron crag
#

Ice beam has been really nice but I guess it's worth a shot. I have 4 ice attacks on this team already

iron crag
#

@north nimbus overall, how's it look?

#

made a few small adjustments, not likely to be final draft

north nimbus
#

looks fine-ish still think dozo and garg are going to be major buns to face against if not woger

elder knoll
#

spdef Dozo woop woo wo

iron crag
#

isn't it true that any team is going to have threats to it? that said I'm fine making some adjustments to deal with things like that.

north nimbus
#

yes but some teams shouldnt lose to certaint things, like offense should never just let stall be an autolose

iron crag
#

fair enough. you wouldn't rate this as "good" all things considered?

north nimbus
#

its good, but not solid

iron crag
#

what does that mean exactly?

hot dome
#

its like a 6/10

north nimbus
#

like its useable and will work, but its not something that will have consecutive success and be able to function in almost every match up

iron crag
hot dome
#

probably some monstrosity cooked up in a 3am spl team

iron crag
#

What actually is wrong with this team then?

#

and I don't suppose you have an example? @hot dome

hot dome
#

think tyson said it fine as is

north nimbus
#

mons like dozo garg and to some extent lu are going to be issues to deal with, u want better mu against those literally just do woger

#

then the team will become solid

hot dome
elder knoll
#

a 10/10 team is probably something SZ has in his back pocket

#

made at 4 AM on the toilet

iron crag
hot dome
#

crazy how things work sometimes

iron crag
#

i wanted to do something a bit more spicy

#

i have things to think about now

elder knoll
#

I mean you can go for a Deo-S lead HO

#

it's really awkward for stall to deal with

hot dome
#

-makes a veil team
im going to be brutally honest, veil is never spicy

north nimbus
#

a lead in veil or we removing atales?

north nimbus
#

just not using the right mons

iron crag
#

I don't know anymore

hot dome
#

nah the most spice you can get is like double dance gliscor or something

north nimbus
#

na

#

u can be

#

ur not using the right mons

elder knoll
#

I've seen double shell smash veil...

hot dome
#

any more and you start pushign the "this is just bad" territory

#

see that's part of the "this is just bad"

north nimbus
#

its veil

elder knoll
#

Polte is a menace

#

north nimbus
#

its meant to be cheesy at the end of the day

in the initial draft I had Zama over Tusk

This looks generally fine, but I would make this zama 3 attacks roar, which then allows you to go double hazards on ting Lu, which then means you don’t want defog as much anymore on Corv so you can make this Corv 3 attacks

#

and please don’t give advice if you don’t know what u are even saying, thank you

#

i like ting lu over gliscor on this team more

#

you dont have a real dark/ghost switch in

#

corv can be idbp or 2 attacks + id

#

swords dance waterpon for a wincon

#

court change cinderace is enough hazard control for this team

How does he deal with Zama tho

#

Especially when it just Tera fires

low phoenix
#

specs pult and bb corv

nocturne sable
#

And Zama can just crunch

north nimbus
#

taking volt turn into a whole new meaning

#

jokes asides somehting liek pecha makes sense to help vs zama and just alleviate pressure vs woger and iron val

low phoenix
#

i was thinking pecha

nocturne sable

I was thinking glowking

low phoenix
#

but then what would be this teams speed control

nocturne sable
low phoenix
#

this team already has scizor

nocturne sable

I don’t think scizor is needed, and he has pult anywya

#

I meant

#

Drop scizor

#

For pecha

#

Ooops

north nimbus
#

or better yet before we do any changes

north nimbus
low phoenix
#

seems like hes trying to create a pivot offense

north nimbus
#

ye but if theres any mon they specifically want to keep, best to ensure it reamins for any changes

arctic frigate
#

@north nimbus wassup thx for the advice you didnt say over what mon i put zama. But im assuming oger? I have a cpl questions w that. I would then have no knocker and a pretty abismal stall matchup no?

arctic frigate
#

But then i just lose into dozo

north nimbus
#

Not necessarily

#

If ur super concerned vs dozo then you can add taunt onto woger

#

Tho at the cost of missing out on u turn

arctic frigate
#

Also unrelated garg is a massive probelm

#

Evwn with zama

north nimbus
#

Garg mu is annoying but doable with zama, Lu, woger you should be generally fine against it

arctic frigate
#

Kk also is there a way i can build scarf kyu and dragonite on non ho. That was kinda my goal here so its pretty upsetting to not use kyu

north nimbus
#

Uhh

#

no

#

If your doing that you might want to commit to a very aggressive playstyle

arctic frigate
#

Un4ch

#

Ill give it a whirl with zama

#

Thx for the help

north nimbus
#

No problemo !

arctic frigate
#

I will undoubtbly be back today

somber obsidian
north nimbus
#

also fwiw whenever ur building voltturn, you dontn necessarily need all 6 mons to be pivoters since then u will miss out something crucial to help cover other things

arctic frigate
#

So like this then right

north nimbus
#

i do think u would want pecharunt in this team, and replacing it over cinderace is only logical, cause this still gives u something for zama, iron val, and alleviate pressure against woger, you might actually want to consider bpress on corv just to help out vs gambit, but i understand if u would prefer bb then again u can also decide to do bpress and bb with no turn(just be mindful when fighting against ghost if u do decide to), make this wisp boots pult this is just more resillience to help vs gambit and zama (though truthfully i would prefer this to be a zama), and replace gliscor with ting-lu you get a phaser, a solid ghost resist, and u handle things like rai, iron moth, dengo, and bolt a lot better

nocturne sable

#

Reason of fp over hex?

#

is it just considerd better

but many thanks

and max speed pech over my full phys def b4?

# arctic frigate https://pokepast.es/dfbc5372384d43c1

Ngl this looks like dnite would be a lot better > kyurem also gives u an actual ground resist, and also could use an immediate breaker like 4 attacks zama, tho having zama and espeed dnite you dont need scarf rai as much and can opt it out for something else like with a steel probably bulky twave dengo

# arctic frigate Same with meow and ig dozo

feels like this is an exaggeration when you will have zama, dnite, gweez for meow, tho if ur super concerned for dozo then i would also just do mixed boots kyurem, corv > rai, and then id zama

#

just dont think dd kyurem fits here

arctic frigate
#

Kk ty

#

Ill give it a go when im home

#

Could you tell me why it doesnt? I wanna just become a good builder and im sure u dont like perma ratin the same person

elder knoll
#

You have no ground resist

#

they click earthquake and you can’t do anything

#

Dnite also has more defensive utility than Kyurem and fits better on fatter structures like this

north nimbus
#

its better to ask questions rather then repeating the same mistakes and not learn, but main reason one u dont have ground resist, and secondly that kyurem set fits better on more offensive and aggressive structures

#

Whats bulky dnite btw?

🤔 no ground immune there’s a Mola

north nimbus
elder knoll
#

Tera dragon Mola should do ok against Pivot Spring

#

I’m not sure about that treads set though

#

🤔

north nimbus
#

Me thinks adding a bird in here would make the most sense to help out, cause you gotta burn Tera vs woger majority of the time, but then you would also have to change a lot of mons, unless you do tickle

#

Yeah treads seems completely random here

#

Tusk would make a lot more sense here but then no steel is kinda balls

elder knoll
#

maybe a spdef Corv?

north nimbus
#

So great tusk > treads and Spdef Corv > garg

#

Hmm could work

#

You already have mola tusk gweez for most of the thing regular Corv would check

#

Could even do something crazy like bu taunt Corv maybe

I am largely tilt losing so far but I think having manual hazard control other than hat would be useful

#

or making kyurem boots

#

would like to keep the first two everything else I'm chill

empty verge
#

@jaunty granite I think you can honestly do great tusk > Lando and Moltres > hatt

Great tusk gives you a bit more consistent removal for kyurem

Moltres gives you a reliable answer into grounds since we are dropping Lando helps with stuff like Ghold and Val takes the pressure off crown and sam

jaunty granite
#

word

empty verge
#

Alternatively you can do Galarian Weezing > hatt for a very consistent defog I never tried it outside of balance though so idk how it would perform here

#

for weaknesses at least
