I would also change the tusk ev spread to just its standard on. Booster speed energy/rocky helmet or heavy duty boots can be used on great tusk here. Tera steel tusk is fine here as usual to resist stuff like rilla & kyurem

#

Also swords dance & U-turn is kinda anti synergy if you’re running swords dance Ogerpon just run play rough

#

Hp invested kingambit usually runs 44 speed evs to outspeed certain walls like Blissey for example

#

Not sure I’m a big fan of the dragonite set either. Usually lefties or boots is preferred on Tera blast dragonite instead of trying to awkwardly compensate for scale shot. I think that moveslot could easily be roost/encore.

All you do is set up screens and spam set up sweepers

If you run into something like cinderace which court change you can taunt it with deoxys to prevent it from clicking court change

Ouu okay, i will use moltres early

In the early games you just send out stuff like glimmora to help check flyings

What to do if screen over in mid game? Try to bring it back?

And remove hazards if they get set up

#

Thx, if screen buff is over should i try use deoxy again?

#

That’s why you keep deoxys alive to set up screens again

I just use deoxy till his death xdd

#

lo pult and gren r fine

#

but different archetypes and move

frozen fox
#

pult gotta be boots

#

maybe a status guy

#

mixed also works

#

this is more or less you slapped on mons from different cores than making balance team

#

also boots on g weez and make it pain split

#

it's your only removal

#

also some of your mons are fighting for roles on the team

charred pumice
#

So yeah

#

Any recommendations

#

I need cinder gapdos and drag on the team

limber spear
#

u can go for a volt turn core

#

try like specs pult off cindy prolly scarf gapdos or cb works too

#

and then prolly like a gambit tusk+ a v turner?

#

i didnt double dheck the core tho

nocturne sable
# charred pumice https://pokepast.es/d088c82a45c92b73 need gapdos and cinder on the team movese...

K so.. if you’re running banded cinderace you want gunk shot here over zen headbutt. Gunk shot hits primarina & moltres without making contact. Also sucker is not really necessary here since you have scarf gapdoz+being locked into banded sucker kinda loses a lot of momentum. Your cinderace moveslot should be gunk shot, High jump kick, u-turn & pyro ball.

As for the rest of the team they feel really random here. Gweez can probably stay for removal but the other half probably needs to go as they don’t really benefit the team.

I’m kinda iffy about Qua but the utility it provides in hazard control is worth trying out

#

All I really did was convert this to a more hazard stacking route since the mons here really thrive on structures like this.

Probably because of defog

It can bring in teammates safer

# quartz lark Fix these sets also convert Gweezing's 16 SpA into 4 SpD and 252 Def Iron Crown...

Okay Odd stat spread for Gweezing

Ngl I don't get why Tickle is prefered on Alomomola instead of the classic Scald

Psychic Noise is on Booster Speed Crown because I hate dealing with Walls/Stallers like Gliscor for exsample but act as secondary Mid or Late game sweeper incase something happnes to Dragonite or Dragonite isn't in a good position to be switched in. Why Tera Fairy is due to making it somewhat better Defensively to get rid of its weaknesses whilst catching Dragons and especially Dark mons off guard.

Meowscarada honestly to me feels like the weakest Member on the team hence why seeking opinions to change/improve the team in the first place.

I'm fine with replacing most mons except gapdos and ace

try sinistcha over zapdos kanto

you check great tusk + wogerpon + spinblock

i prolly would test like wisp or t wave on pult

jade cedar

#

oh both r smogon sets

#

spa draco and dart mix

#

dart mix is overall better

#

cuz more dmg on u-turn and dart is spammable (same could be said to draco but ) it also helps with stall mu

#

but spa gives higher hex and a nuke via draco

#

cuz i want hex to be better here so i go spa but most of the time just go dart

nocturne sable

you can just use moltres or something over zappy then

You can run like iron defense body press roost corv

Hmm ill test a version with corv

#

I'm liking sinistcha in this team rn

#

Also they should exempt the species clause for regional forms 😭

i'd consider running cm hatterene or replacing dragonite with dragapult

#

fair disclaimer tho, im new to this so take my advice with a grain of salt

limber spear
#

prolly helmet hatt here is fine

#

with split

#

mono hatt removal is not the safest but on offense should be able to make it work

#

also helps with stal mu

#

not sure on this but prolly like taunt lu with helmet is decent on offense over chomp but then the team is insanely slow

#

but the defensive side is passable

quick niche
limber spear
#

if u can make chomp and pult work

as woger check

then there is no flyer

also should go dtail ovet claw on dnite and prolly spinner over encore on dnite (but it’s dnite so everything works) if u r keeping them

that’s in terms of like “real check” but an offense can still make it without any so called real checks

like adding spikes on deo and sr on tusk to improve the stall matchup

if you forego swords dance yes, excadrill should be baloon here always

(This is not an rmt)

#

(This is just an example)

#

Hatt is the other option which is generally prefered

Your team also lacks a ground type

The dominant type of damage reducing ho rn is screens so look into that too

Sorry I misunderstood

And wins vs most things when getting stuff on the field

Mainly because it gets outsped by a lot

But honestly it's such a niche IMO

placid yarrow
# frozen spoke But honestly it's such a niche IMO

Kyurem's best set on veil is mixed dd
But honestly my anglefor your team is scrap most of the mons
Keep glimm goltres and maybe zama depending on your structure
Then screens deo>atales
Then go from there
And see what you can put in or replace

#

Samples are a good reference for how to build screens

frozen spoke
#

Alrighty

#

I love Goltres so I'm still happy with the foundation

#

and I can finally have an accurate secondary STAB with tera blast

Goltres is a good screens mon despite how much I personally dislike it

But yeah bottom line
You can keep a couple mons

But adapt it to a deo screens team

staying consistent with only using lokix for the last year+
Kyurem + glowking does what they do
Mandibuzz stops demons like most dnite, wellspring, gambit, ceruledge
Tusk for removal,
Prim for some help into stall and special threats like enam, other prim

#

I’ve had some problems with things like ghold, and ho with too many physical sweepers so mandibuzz gets overwhelmed

#

Considered swapping tusk for treads since I don’t have a steel but I don’t think it helps with the problems I’m having

#

Also if a zama subs up I usually shake their hand

nocturne sable
#

Main problem is that you don’t have anything that resists make it rain

digital sonnet
#

I considered an alo but I’m trying to build less passive balance teams

#

I like having glowking and prim together so there’s less pressure on both of them against teams with like an enam and a bolt

#

But prim is probably the most likely swap especially since I just kind slapped in on

#

I forgot but also other kyurem are a massive problem

nocturne sable
digital sonnet
#

I mainly threw it so it can be a light kyurem switch in, and because I like how lokix and prim form a good pivoting breaking core but idk if it’s needed with glowking and kyurem

for me it’s prolly go for the smogon set for most mons and make clef like a flyer such as moltres

#

something to take advantage of it

#

I wouldnt run av tusk though

sterile jay
#

do i switch to treads better over tusk ?

#

it also improve the matchup into bolt

rapid barn
#

tbh I dont think bolt is that big of an issue here

#

but besides that, you should consider adding some other mons that compliment lokix and appreciate your hazard control

#

think kyurem or enamorus

sterile jay
#

ill probably switch for kyurem ngl

#

specs or boots could be crazy here

rapid barn
#

special attackers that can help deal with the things that wall lokix

brazen canyon
#

I wanted to ask you of something

sterile jay
#

actually

#

scarf enamorus is probs the call then

rapid barn
#

i think scarf or specs would both be alright

#

lokix is great as a revenge killer

sterile jay
#

noo true its crazy

rapid barn
#

you should consider some options like for ex av mola as a defensive pivot

sterile jay
#

tera bug first impression kills half the tier troguh resist

sterile jay
#

i made some changes to fat primarina

rapid barn
#

you could afford to not run boots cuz of your hazard control, and it could switch into basically anything and help your breakers pivot in

sterile jay
#

i feel like it works better

sterile jay
#

it would have to be over primarina

rapid barn
#

its like uhhh, flip turn scald mirror coat body slam

sterile jay
#

that should work

#

ill try it out too

rapid barn
#

👍

sterile jay
#

what set should i run w tusk you think btw

rapid barn
#

I like lefties

sterile jay
#

lefties is probs the way to go true

#

what about sitrus berry ?

#

i dont think i stay many turns in the field w tusk anyway

#

it does give me a ton more of survival

rapid barn
#

uhhh

#

I still think leftovers is a bit better

#

or rocky helmet

sterile jay
#

fair enough lmao

rapid barn
#

id prolly swap out landorus though

#

you can drop rocks on tusk

#

and to like, not stack types too much

sterile jay
#

thats fair

#

but for who tough

#

pecharunt maybe ?

#

any pivot w u turn would be good her ngl tough

rapid barn
#

pech is solid yeah

#

kinda like a type of volt turn team yk

sterile jay
#

parting shot true

rapid barn
#

thats why stuff like mola and cinderace are good partners for it

#

pivots are good, mix with hazard control

sterile jay
#

truee

#

ill run toxic over malignant chain tough

#

its way more consistent

rapid barn
#

you can run either tbf

#

but like

#

its nice to be able to hit fairy types

sterile jay
#

truee

rapid barn
#

thats the trade off

sterile jay
#

maybe i just drop foul play tough

#

could run shadow ball just for more consistency

rapid barn
#

shadow ball recover malignant chain parting shot is the default set

nocturne sable
sterile jay
rapid barn
#

but anyways, if you want to build around lokix, think about the hazard control partners and mons that benefit from it

rapid barn
sterile jay
#

truee

rapid barn
#

not as good as the shadow ball set

#

imo

sterile jay
#

no true i am just surprised it defaults to that over shadow ball

This channel is kinda only for completed teams anyway.

Although there seems to be a lot of overlaps & redundancy with your team like Lando+corv+tusk. Prim+Lokix is fine to start with but the other half of the team doesn’t really support the core that well together

rapid barn
#

mhm

sterile jay

#

This is just a team I made up in builder with the core of kix+prim in mind

#

Making this a voltTurn spammy core kinda

sterile jay

i did change to alo but i do dislike how passive it is

#

i will give it a try tyy

ace is good removal ye, and u-turn helps

Usually np pecha has a decent mu into stall. Clod kinda sucks ye but it pressures pex+blissey. Psynoise prim is also a decent tool into stall

# chilly tundra We are not cooking

Dugtrio was the original Pokémon to be centered around. Moltres was paired with this to U-Turn on the common Ting-Lu then trap and remove it with Dugtrio. Because Arena Trap is banned in SV OU, a different Pokemon had to pair with the moltres to fulfill this similar intent. Ditto was used in its place for its vast versatility. It can either be used to use offensive pieces on the other team against them, which is great as this team is lacking in the special sponge department so copying something like a walking wake in the sun MU is quite nice. Ditto can also be used to copy Pokémon on the opposing team to fill gaps in defense, most notably the aforementioned special sponge such as Ting-Lu, which Moltres will U-Turn on to get Ditto in and set hazards/scout the set. Ditto is also very good at scouting sets so I can switch my walls in with higher execution.

Looked in chat to see if smb rated my team and I see a man raging bc glowking walls him

quartz lark

and lack of history of this team.

#

its been posted before

rapid barn
#

its a stall team but it couldnt make any progress

#

and you got mad??

queen saddle
quartz lark
#

look further. does it really not make progress?

rapid barn
#

you need stuff like knock off

quartz lark
#

is this balance?

queen saddle
#

wait he doesnt have a knocker

rapid barn
#

he doesnt have a knocker

queen saddle
#

I didnt look at his team

#

So you’re saying stall without knock off

rapid barn
rapid barn
quartz lark
#

it is making progress.

queen saddle
#

hazards but no knock

rapid barn
queen saddle
#

is questionable

quartz lark
#

where does a knocker fit

#

nowhere

rapid barn
#

gliscor

#

its literally a stall staple

queen saddle
#

why is there so many birds

quartz lark
#

cant be fit here

rapid barn
#

you got plenty of knockers

queen saddle
rapid barn
#

your team gets 6-0 by stuff like primarina too

queen saddle
#

Gliscor too yeah

quartz lark
#

i cant slap it on without entirely altering the structure

#

gliscor is bad here

queen saddle
#

Woger is gg’s

quartz lark
#

this isnt gen 7 where it has roost

queen saddle
#

🧍‍♂️

quartz lark
#

also tera dragon corv is right there

rapid barn
#

gliscor being bad on stall is a crazy statement

queen saddle
#

real

rapid barn
#

and yeah put knock on mandibuzz, its right there

queen saddle
#

Gliscor doesn’t need roost

#

like at all

rapid barn
#

exactly

quartz lark
#

its a common staple for woger switch ins but i also have buzz

queen saddle
#

spikes + knock + protect + toxic

#

gg’s

rapid barn
#

knock spikes gliscor is amazing on stall

quartz lark
#

gliscor isnt bad on stall its just not right on this composition

rapid barn
#

also this still doesnt fix the fact your team instant loses to primarina

queen saddle
#

i dont think I see a single unaware mon too

you gotta change the team up anyways

it does not how does it lose to rina?

then what

theres corv

this is special corv with bb

doesnt matter

you still lose

in what universe

rapid barn

it will just regen back all its hp with leftovers and kill you with psychic noise

#

you cant heal

quartz lark
#

rina has no reliable recovery

queen saddle
#

In at least half where you let prim get +1 while switching into Corvi

#

then +2 bc Corvi does no damage

quartz lark

if its lefties it cant be boots

okay um first thing, id prolly not team build until you are like, at least 1500-1600, but thats just me

quartz lark
#

just vr

#

and stuff

rapid barn
#

you gotta get the common sets down first

quartz lark
#

nah i got them down i just dont remember everything

#

like liquid voice being like pixilate

#

i glanced at it one time

#

sooo you acknowledge primarina being an issue right?

quartz lark
#

yes but its managable for sure

#

noooo

#

no

#

you literally cant beat primarina

quartz lark
#

i beat that shit like its momma doesnt know it

#

bars

rapid barn
#

well I mean you are 1400, they are prolly running some goofy sets

#

but trapper sets and sub cm will wreck your team

quartz lark
#

nah theres even scarier sets available that im aware of

#

for example

queen saddle
#

I refuse the fact that you actually think you can beat defensive or offensive cm prim

quartz lark
#

perish song with whirlpool

#

goodness

queen saddle
#

defensive prim just destroys your corvi first of all

#

thats like block spite pex

#

#

perish song isnt a real set tbh

#

whirlpool is a thing

perish song is a move on rina and its insane

but perish song is inconsistent

trades 1 for 1 but only do this for stall

#

nonono shut up for a moment respectfully and let me speak

#

how do you beat

stall it out

#

no but fr though what

queen saddle
#

so you’re going to stall something Blissey can’t hurt right or heal io

#

up

rapid barn
#

what is taking hits from a +6 primarina

queen saddle
#

as Prim gets +6

quartz lark
#

and not even get in a position like that in the first place

queen saddle
quartz lark
#

which i will see on tp

rapid barn
#

no its literally impossible to avoid it

queen saddle
#

MAX PHYS DEF PRIM RIGHT

quartz lark
#

sure its a terrible MU but stuff like that should be addressed in the battle

I’m actually crine

but anyways fix it

let him find a way to beat glowking and prim

#

he’ll find a way trust

#

because like

#

power of friendship

rapid barn
#

see this is why you need knock off

queen saddle
#

the bond with pokemon

rapid barn
#

you need some sort of progress maker

#

something with unaware would be nice too

quartz lark
#

and how do you propose i do while keeping the integrity of the team.

its one thing to point out observations, but it takes far greater skill to properly uplift the team

queen saddle
#

why not just run dozo corvi blissey

rapid barn
#

YES

queen saddle
#

gliscor

JUST RUN THE SAMPLE

from what I understand, you refuse to use knock off on mandibuzz bec that'll change your entire team, primarina is somehow not going to 6-0 your team, your team has issues but you refuse to address them

queen saddle
#

tbf ursaluna is a stall breaker so I cant rlly talk much

quartz lark
#

you prob wont as much since its a second unit. i build in practice not theory.

Tbh at least having one knock user makes this team usable let’s be honest

mhm

queen saddle

at the minimum usable

#

but also you have defog on 2 mons

so even when your hazards are up
