this just looks like my team with a gambit
yes
just use raging bolt
eh
not my style
i already have wake
to add another abuser would be roaring moon but thats been banned
yeah no… Scarf Wake is better, at least for this team
ight
https://pokepast.es/765fd6c5b5cf96e6
thoughts?
only using 100% accuracy moves team
molt for kyurem (might run more spatk to break sub)
pex for oger somewhat?
it’s kind of a tuff matchup but how is it
yeah…
what to run over pex? idrk
wait
u need a water resist over it that checks pon
gunk shot is inaccurate I firgit
like rilla?
ban Pex
but I also want a phys def pivot
hm
u need espeed for better sun mu imo
or like dd roost espeed rockslide?
cuz u cant break tres here
or go sedge quake tusks(like spdef tres)
I want a better corvi answer rather than losing ballon on ghold
uh so maybe bolt>pex and keep tres?
oh ok
could I run phys def Clef?
unaware boots
hmm nah
i think unaware is too passive here
also over who
it isn’t a pon check iirc
tbf it’s bulk is passable prolly but then yeah it’s too passive
Ugh ts pmo tm
Why is building a team with moves that can’t miss so hard
wait
@limber spear is a defensive spikes Ogerpon set real
uh which pon
and by defensive like what
fat woger was used before
i dont think i hv seen some newer sets but there was one to win a 1v1 vs crown
but for like base pon is like hard to fit
ivy is must and knock is broken same for uturn
fast encore is like a rlly good merid thats exlclusive to base pon and it fits in boots spam mostly anyways
tera types and weird sets (like boots corv and flame moth and boots rotom
(tho like wash gap meow is defo workable with volt turn
I was thinking Woger
Only problem is I want synthesis but also knock uturn spikes and ivy
i think spikes is droppable here icl
I didn't set any Tera types
Can you fix the sets
just use the smogon set (i am lazy)
corv wants like helmet or lefties
Is this good btw?
rotom wants prolly lefites and hex can be changed to like wisp/split
Speed control, hazard removal and control
moth wants fiery+sludge+wtv
Kyurem beat thru Molt
Well
I’mma do some calcs see how many evs I need
To do 25% w flame
tbh u hv like dengo and spdef tres
(i smh think tres doesnt fit that well in offense but i am not an expert
It’s bulky offense
So you gotta consider that
i think for bo
the pon check is too weak
at the very least u need tera grass phy def tres
what
😭
Oh wait I forgot
It was a scrapped version of the team I had pech in
Gg’s
LMAOO
But like I need the agua
prolly go like phy def tera dragon tres?
zama for prima?
I do kinda want a sweeper for the end game
other than just ghold
Well Prim and Pech core is decent with Molt too
Hm
CM prim
prolly fat cm prim works tho i prefer av here
prolly go like a pon check>zama (it works for once (refering to zama) when it procs dauntless
Hm
prolly just go pech or smth else over zama slot
tres and tusk prolly deals with gambit mu
technically u dont need pech
things like kyurem can work
uh mola?
over prima
and then kyurem> pech
like tickle mola
gg’s woger
kyurem and tickle mola makes it playable
Could I run NP Rai
And keep Pech as a spin blocker
2 sweepers
rocker and remover
spin block w 2 pivots
well
could Prim be different?
Double poison
Ground weakness even higher
Water types would be nice tho
Oh yeah that was meant to be spdef
and get a knocker
like krai can knock or other
I hate missing
I would say fairy matchup looks rough BUTT
Literally
Enam and Val
Blank into both my guys
Unless it’s tera electric cm Val
Hm
I think Prim is actually better to keep here for Val
https://pokepast.es/0b9a4a9928b49709
I think this is the final form of the team
Rai could be boots
foul play is meant to be shadow ball mb
https://pokepast.es/6054ad89d7345348 recently made this, been having fun with sub + protect Kyurem.

Offensive item on zamazenta over boots for more breaking power. That’s all I really have to comment cuz this is a standard blimax-esque kyurem comp
yeah
reminds me of the storm team sorta
can even run like colbur on gking
and then uturn defog corv
so Uturn, brave bird, defog , roost corv and LO or banded zamazenta?
i believe storm zone and blimax made this team already
theres different versions with Bolt as well
over kyurem
did they?
looks like the blimax sample
Hey @boreal tangle, it looks like you're trying to share a gen9legendszaou team, but I didn't find any raters for that format in this channel. Try posting in #1060682530094862477 instead.
It hasn’t been 6 hours
Ohh ok
This is not really that good. None of the sets or moves here are any good.
The only mons that are worth keeping here is meowscarada & Tinkaton. Tinkaton is usually its utility set(stealth rock, knock off/twave, encore, giga hammer) and scarf meow isn’t bad but petal blizzard is useless here you’re better off running triple axel to hit flying types.
You can start off with a core like that and go towards a hazard stacking route(spikes, stealth rocks, etc) but the rest I would personally just dump they don’t really have value here
Hell nah
Just use my pikachu team
Ik what im doing here
I think if you’re running pivot spam it would make more sense to use psychic noise over future sight since pivoting is your main momentum pusher
oh god
first of all, you're running triple STAB on Pikachu
plus Pikachu isnt really viable in OU
and 4 HP evs is not reccomended
Is it that bad 😭
It can win a few games but not by much
Hm
I will try to make a new one with those tips yall gave
And the 3 games I played with it

Offensive spikes w Ghold as a stall breaker and defog blocker, Garg being a secondary spin blocker and a nice ghold check
No moves that can miss
D-tail roost dragonite to beat Woger
isnt dtail 90% acc
(also its too greedy to run like garg woger and non boots dengo on like a balance with no removal
oh.
then whats your thoughts
Then what abt the ghold slot
https://pokepast.es/b2b4365dab152fb6 people is this good?
@limber spear need your help, also HEYY hru?
hi (also is this not just https://pokepast.es/297ba69ca070dbeb)
wait there is a sample for that?
tera normal mola here is prolly better cuz u hv ghost resist
the last batch yeah
I've been wanting to test with tera grass tusk for woger matchups
ye ik but it's for like surprise factor if they switch woger in I can just set up
obviously after checking all the special threats
also cuz u arent bslam mola
and phy def slowking
it just sounds annoying
cuz u dont hv switch in if they "trap" your mola
then ig I should make mola av and g-king something else?
tbh i think the sample is prolly the best solution smh
like the idea is the same
and same mons overall
its just like 2-3ish set tweaks
ig... still is tera grass tusk plausible?
prolly dragon is better?
but if u dont like the pon mu then prolly
or like tera grass on phy def king
and such
Okay I'm really new to this. I just started playing showdown with OU last tuesday and I've made a trickroom team. I currently have a 12 W - 17 L and I don't know what I'm missing. I really want to have mons that I personally love in my team instead of OP paradox mons with crazy Base Stats. Any tips?
https://pokepast.es/61cf7e25b95350fa
@low phoenix since you’re running pivot spam can you test this team
https://pokepast.es/702ee403b6fe8b39 more trash teams
I mean what you dislike comes with the territory of the current gen
You can only be creative with a solid hold of the metagame you're playing.
Work on the fundamentals first before you battle.
It's easier to build good habits than to fix bad ones.
Thank you
not at all a problem
This is just a worst version of an already existing old sample team
Hey @rustic bison, it looks like you're trying to share a gen9doublesou team, but I didn't find any raters for that format in this channel. Try posting in #1059655497587888158 instead.
Oooh
well
a lot of these are just unusable in ou but that comes with the power level
theres also just way too many issues with the team to really fix without giving you a whole different team
if you just wanna use trick room you can go into ou room and type /rfaq tr i think?
and you’ll get a bunch of at least viable builds
scizor is a little out of place here as is meow
cause you kinda just have the classic hatt kyurem tornadus structure but with a specs volcanion over the kyurem
tbh i dont hate it but you probably want to like
change hat to a regular pain split set
cause cm will eventually lose to ting lu
since you can’t get any hp back
or rather enough hp back
most of the team is weak to ice and fairy types, scizor keeps things from exoculating and meow is for speed control
Can just use pecha here if you’re worried about fairies then run like kingambit or something over scizor.
what set?
You can try out bulky gambit+max speed pecha
Thanks
you can use gking for this then add gambit
or pech works

how’s this lookin and cookin
Showed Feesh this but added Ttar over Tusk bc it’s boots spam
skarm is an ez knock absorber
I get really easy hazards
Ttar is rlly bulky already so cb can break thru sum stuff ion like
random ttar is weird on hstack
especially as you uh
have good knock users already
and ting lu is kinda doing the same role here
clef shouldn’t be spdef
and yeah a dd roost ekiller dnite would be way better here + np pech
Kinda struggling with Corvi
Alright tho
I need help w Corvi tho
Defog is super free tho?
cause it has to switch in and defog
cant it js u-turn tho
and then you can ruin and chip it
who kos it tho
hm
You force roost with ruin
you just play the long game and outlast it
And when corv doesn’t have much roost left it’s easy to overwhelm
alr I see
^
you know something funny
i usually run enough speed to be faster than ogerpon at +1
corv runs 0 speed ivs to defog after ruin/hazards or to pivot after ruin
and then 252 attack adamant rest in bulk
another funny thing is disallowing an eq to hit after roost since corv roosts after ruin
I mean ting Lu is still forcing roost from corv
Any rater got any feedback for this team?
I mean I just did lol
yo
I feel like half the time you don’t
know
but you’re being very incompetent most of the time so you don’t realize
Like I remember you posted your teams here and once I gave you feedback w smb else you completely disregarded it
and ended up making another team anyways
so please if you dont know ur shit go away
and I’ll see if I can say anything
but lmk if you feel any problems vs some mons
for one where are your rocks
and also G-king I feel as if does not need ice beam
you have lots of ice moves on your team
your team is very quickly paced but why use phys def Slowking when Pech is right there?
You have no ghosts either way
And this way you get a sp def and phys def pivot
you could use either fast or max phys def pech
This is a pikachu team
also run knock off over beat up
I’m wondering why you ran beat up in the first place but not gonna criticize
Js run knock
Woger should be spikes or sd
and if it’s spikes use knock uturn ivy spikes
sd just remove uturn
you dont rlly want power whip if ur going all out attacker/pivot pon
Horn leech lets you heal
I also feel like your team is primarily physical which isn’t horrid but eh
I guess Tornt and Pech might be solid but idk
Try out some sample teams…

Thoughts?
team looks pretty usable but i think you could run more non boots items
like keep boots on slowking if you want but hydrapple maybe try like
helm or lorb or lefties
and you can make val specs as well
6 mons look fine but I’m not really a fan of the lack of breaking power here.
I think you can change the ival set around
since you have multiple pivots it can be awkward to have booster
on a bulkier team
I was thinking the same thing but wasn’t sure how to fill rhat gap while getting a knocker so I just rolled with that
What about SD Ival?
Your team needs more immediate damage imo. Knock doesn’t really matter as much unless you’re like Hstack
And rocks+specs val is still enough to put pressure on teams
Even if they have Bootspams or wtv
Lando got screwed this gen, no knock off, especially no more defog then rock combo
True
Gen 8 was a time
For sure. I’ll try that
Could use vacuum wave over trick for some priority
That lando’s scarf getting knocked is a very real possibility.
Why would he switch Lando on Knock when he has corviknight & apple to scout that
Anyway vacuum wave is a move but it’s not really ideal to get locked into
Trick has its uses in crippling defensive mons like mola & clod
For when gking can’t stay in to chilly. Then wave for the faster scarfers such as rai.
Mola can’t wish+pivot when tricked, but it’s still serviceable
Clod is seen on 5.56% of teams at 1825+, then less at 1695+.
Trick is definitely good I just figured vacuum wave wouldn’t be that bad here. Another thing I was concerned with was tricking the specs away when alo clicks flip turn with little repercussion.
I do like that trick opens up the lando a little bit and the val heavily though.
That is all. 
tbh, it would be better to have another coverage move
or trick
instead of vaccum wave
Tested a few battles with this; I know hazards and defog don't normally mix, but I feel like I have the longevity to do it with Kyurem.
https://pokepast.es/4f2a8f34b135c0b8
Weeze is the primary defogger and dragon immunity while removing toxic spikes on the witch, giving us another toxic absorber.
Zamazenta is our speedy wallbreaker
SD Glisc was once spikes but I figured the ability to threaten opposing Gliscor, defoggers, and rapid spinners with SD knock-offs was a nice touch. Also voltswitch immunity.
Kyurem is bulky with good dmg and breaks through Dozo, pex, and Alomomola.
Alomomola keeps everyone healthy while walling off most physical attackers.
Garg sets hazards and threatens any steel type it takes a hit from (took a hit from Close combat scizor just to salt cure it cuz I had a wish to restore its health.). Garg is also delightful chip for any wall that can't outright kill it in 1 or 2 hits (mostly for tusk since it can take a headlong rush and return with salt cure then protect and swap for chip.)
It makes sense on paper and worked pretty well. I really hope this isn't just a sample or 1 off a sample.

if your hatt goes down people slurp at the sound of hazards vs your team
both ur priority users are choiced
tclap being very easy to dance around
stall absolutely eats up your team, maybe bolt can do something but weavile js gets dozoed or skarm
Idk why Zap is here lowkey
It’s usually choiced if ever used
bulk up is not sweeping
This team seems relatively solid, especially since you’re not running spikes and instead, rocks, and you are fat enough to reset those rocks too
you have lots of defense and bulk on you while having wallbreakers
But Woger..
Woger may be handled by Kyurem but if rocks are up
and Woger uses play rough
you’re gonna struggle
honestly I feel like you have an answer to
nearly everything besides that
anything else you struggle with? bc this team is strong
ive beaten each stall mu w zap so far
Dondozo gobbles you up
for dinner
Skarmory idefs on your face and giggles
Pecharunt not even used on stall poisons you and laughs when you hit yourself
t. kick lowers enemy def plus lefties set gives it pretty good longevity
thats why its tera steel xd
just set up on the guys that try toxic it
weavile can do alot of chip to its checks
but specs tclap is very sketchy thats true
yup
You still struggle with defensive birds tho
Molt just swaps in and can get a free burn
Zap same thing w para
the best you got really is just
Raging Bolt
And mons can take advantage of your bolt’s choice lock
you go for dragon move expecting their tusk,
Oh no, they went Iron Val! Time to take moon blast and cc!
Enam is a better example actually
Eject button is used on weather teams that want turns to abuse their weather
you don’t have any of that
just use pain split hatt and slot on a spinner or
get a spinner and drop hatt for a spdef pivot
doesn’t this team just die to kyurem
if u run split hatt
if gap rlly breaks stall then isn’t av better
?? 5.56% at 1800s means it’s relevant
And if you are facing stall you’re definitely seeing a clod
For sure
Not a big fan bulk up gapdoz it’s not really sweeping much tbh. You already have choice band weavile & specs bolt which can put pressure on bulkier builds.
I would replace gapdoz with spikes Gliscor here. Also just make hatt normal pain split set this team is not fast paced enough for a healing wish eject button set.
Btw half of what you said isn’t even true treads+hatt is fine as hazard control and stall does not eat up his team when he has specs bolt and choice band weavile.
ive snowballed alot with gzap but i am low 1400s rn
Please refrain from giving rates if you’re not that experienced with the meta
Yea you can win with anything at that elo
But generally that gapdoz set is not viable
You’ll probably benefit more from a proper flying
Like I said. Spikes Gliscor can really benefit your team. You can run spikes earthquake protect & toxic/U-turn depending on your choice
@nocturne sable did you see that one Santu vs. Ruffles ORAS game when Santu’s mew burned Ruffles’ Gliscor turn one
roger 👍
SPL?
I think Im not sure it was a while ago
it is a pretty fun set
Prob some other tour
fly+fight stab w dark coverage is rly good in sv
Def not this spl though
that’s fair enough but like wouldn’t they lack a kyurem check
tho treads with rocks and weavile can do smth
weavile low kick kos from full
With hazards up how many times is Kyu switchin in
+he has spdef treads that can live a hit or two+weavile & hatt so Kyu is fine
Yea+tera steel can be used in emergency situations
then how do u normally decide if your kyurem check is enough
besides like the conventional steels(exclude tran)+special walls like glowking
cuz like most teams hv rocks to pressure it anyways
Can it take kyurem’s hits well? Is it faster than Kyurem? Does it break through substitute?
Good questions to answer your questions.
like isn’t that just most steels
with like glowking blissey
so basically if i can break every sub and outspeed and i am kyurem proof?
if on offensive teams
and does same apply to like av and specs
Look at Zama for example
It's faster than kyurem, it threatens kyurem, and it takes kyurem's hits relatively well.
Of course not all pokemon will do this as well as zama, but as long as you have a pokemon that has these three qualities you're fine.
If that pokemon breaks through sub through multi hit moves or infiltrator, it doesnt need the last quality
imo if it isnt subtect or specs it isnt all that threatening
but even if u r slower doesn’t it still work
I lowkey forgot treads gets spin
forgive me I typed that early in the morning
but do realize that freeze dry is 32 pp, and kyurem has the ability pressure, while freeze dry has a 10% chance to freeze
https://pokepast.es/190d172910b78979
cm cres cuz i ran out of funny mons
tbh i think the freeze is like uncontrollable
and u never win a pp stall yeah
prolly can go bliss>mola 🤔 (like 2a
Use this over your current cress set
Cresselia @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
IVs: 0 Atk
Tera Type: Steel
Bold Nature
- Lunar Dance
- Ice Beam
- Thunder Wave
- Moonlight
If you wanted set-up, ogerpon should get it not cress.
What's it meant to do
to sweep 🥀 during end game with hazards up to support its dmg
I think ogerpon has a better chance of doing that.
If you're concerned of no longer having a fast pivot when foregoing u-turn, simply make pecharunt a fast pivot set.
If you want
who do i go then
Whatever fits, preferably something that isnt weak to u-turn
Maybe something to form a breaking core with ogerpon to pair nicely with the hazard route
Usually you go Tera poison with cm cress to avoid poison
is steel also fine?
or u would still want poison
poison is the better tera
cuz i didnt go poison at first cuz i thought i'd 1v1 glowking/common toxic users anyways
besides like pexy amoong
scor
You have covert cloak for psynoise
You can 1v1 gking
wouldnt that kinda suck in boots spam
if you wanted to remove cress you could get something that removes through ghold instead
That’s an example
and then go bootsless on pech and oger ?
Keep the boots
wait what
then why do i need a spinner
if i am boots spam
and i hv like knock absorbers anyways
like skarm (or even mola
If you wanted to remove cress
If you believe putting a remover over cress and making pon sd would complicate things, keep cm cress.
was just thinking adding removal so weird when keeping everything boots
what do u recommend then
I honestly have no qualms with this assortment I think you got it 🙌
😭 😭
idk how i got to there https://pokepast.es/506d9986af95ff5c
but there goes an offense
Whats your thoughts yall? thanks
im conflicted on whether to go sd pon vs utility vs js another mon, or making it more hstacky with gholdengo
Actually G weeze exists.
Like even after a +2 g weeze still only takes a 3rd and threatens will o wisp/sludge bomb bacm both of which woger doesnt like
Alr that’s solid
I wouldnt rely on it as much personally bc Woger can get nasty crits
and whatnot yk
but that’s fair
Nvm its still a 2 hit ko after an SD but non SD set cant reliably ko weezing very well
Also on that note there are next to 0 reliable switch ins to ogerpon-wellspring due to its ability to randomly crit its switch-ins. Even a well setup corviknight is one-shot after a +2 crit, skarmory hates a +2 crit, corv doesnt even want a standard crit, toxapex died after a +2 due to power whip or just gets encored into oblivion if its encore.
Dragonite and pult hate knock off or play rough sets.
Pecharunt is the only real relaible switch in to ivy cudgel and it still doesn't like crits.
Plus we have zamazenta whp threatens a revenge ohko with CC
Talk your shit lax. 
I sounded a lot more pretentious than I thought
That is my bad, I genuinely just wanted to explain gweeze and ogerpon matchup
As long as your logic makes sense, you’re all right here. 
If you’re worried about sounding pretentious you can tailor your response to who you’re speaking with.
ur good, it’s also just all the mons u listed besides dragapult can heal reliably
while weezing also only has pain split
solid but yk not the best
any advice for my snow team? (im new to this so sorry if it really bad)

gking on veil is not useful
you can switch it for another spatk mon
iron moth, darkrai
etc
moth probably good since you have no grounded poison for tspikes
cetitan isnt really good either since it does mostly the same thing as kyurem but worse (and you have blizzard on a phys attacker with 50 spatk stat?)
thought i got rid of blizzard, my bad
ill take that and asjust my team now, thank you
sorry for another question but do you have any suggestions on what to replace cetitan with?
I mean there have been times where cetitan has done stuff in OU
One time there was a Tera water liquidation set that peaked like 2000s one time
ill try it out but it doesnt seem to fit my team very well
Who should I replace, I like walking wake torkoal but the other mons not pulling they weight fr
you need real hazard control
cinderace coming in to court change or torkoal coming in taking 25% each time doesnt count
and sun is supposed to be fast paced, no time to waste sun turns with gliscor or leech seed whimsicott
also some other things, no need to make walking wake tera blast ice. tera water hydro steam under sun is already crazy strong, better off having something like flip turn
Alrighty
consider some other sun abuser to put on the team
for ex, great tusk is really good
since it could provide great damage and hazard control
https://pokepast.es/c36915509e15fb92
I think this is solid just wondering if I'm missing anything
I also feel like I could replace woger with hamurott
As the team is kind of bad into Gholdengo
That’s because half these sets don’t really fit Sun.
AV gambit is useless unless you’re running the cheesy metal burst set. But even then that’s a worst AV mirror coat mola. Just run gambits regular sword dance set. I would make it air balloon max speed low kick here for opposing gambits
Cinderace usually like to be offensive with torkoal structure cuz its sun. Choice band isn’t a bad set here.
Whimscott I haven’t seen on Sun in a hot minute. But last time I seen it usually just growth moonblast shadow ball giga drain. Although I think venusaur is just more ideal here than whimsicott.
Last I would drop Gliscor here. There are better mons you can place here. I’m thinking maybe an eject button hatterene or a utility cresselia set. Cresselia especially helps with grounds like tusk which Sun usually struggles with.
Hatt can help with hazard control and pivoting with eject button
Thank you
id prolly swap it with tusk, still want an electric immunity
and rapid spin*
also im not sure, but I dont think torkoal runs max spdef?
Defensive checks don’t really matter on HO structures that much especially sun. + Tera ground Torkoal is here in a clutch.
Although yea tusk isn’t a bad option
Max spdef Torkoal is standard, for iron moth & tera ground raging bolt mainly
It should be like max hp and spdf i jus didnt do it when i made this pokepaste fsr
6 mons are fine but team a lil too passive & slow.
Close combat>>knock off on tusk allows you to 2hko corv after rocks.
Utility wogerpon just feels kinda odd here. Maybe another attacker like darkrai or something can help. Maybe try out specs darkrai for some power.
Not really a fan of eq garg but if you’re struggling with iron moth I can kinda understand it.
Oh that’s weird
Is this what I should go with for hat
It’s usually just full spdef
Yes
1 last mon any good ideas
Eq is so I don't get walled by double Regen cores
Also
Yea I'm gonna replace woger with something else def
I'm gonna do Hamu probably
For ghold
idk about hatt on the team
prolly venu or smth u need speed control esp cuz wake is booster spa
We jus gon have to see how it plays out 😹
also the gambit set 🥀prolly its best to go for jolly if low kick and u would drop iron head instead of sucker
Choose one bro you dont need both
Let alone damp/heatrock on both
Actively counter intuitive
Also just go specs and timid on walking wake
weather mixing is never viable
make ninetales a regular set with encore wisp healing wish weather ball or overheat
tera ghost
probably just drop pelipper and volcanion theyre the weakest parts
wake should be max spatk modest and in the other two slots you can have like cresselia and venusaur
oh and make ninetales max speed max hp as well
forgot about that
What about that triple Weather bot spam 😂
Okay but fr though you’re better off going full sun here.
i think xav tried a sand rain team at one point

except the prosodij squad ofc

zama becomes a lil ruff so u might want ft x psynoise on gking for that w a little pdef but
and like ghost mola
also go standard tusk here
this team doesn’t really have any driving force behind it, half of it is webs but then there’s a gking?? all your webs abusers have weird sets too
would recommend trying out some web samples
Scarfed enamorus 😭
i'm just tryna make chomp work without scale shot 😛
i know i shouldn;t be cooking lmao
i can ladder can't build for nothin
On webs it really isn’t necessary
outrage is fine
this dclaw shit is not it tho
lean into the breaker aspect
if thats what u want
forget sd go band?
at that point run naive fire blast no?
not on swords dance vro
i like edge to lure in moltres
You can literally just go Tera fire
And be fine with moltres in that regard
fair enough
aaaand game freak removed aqua tail from chomp
got liquidation though
ope that’s what im thinking of
Usually kingambit is also useable on webs and can be a darkrai check if non focus blast
https://pokepast.es/070e796189a0d6a9 bit too greedy on bolt?
No brother Tera fire garchomp= run fire fang with it as well.
Run max speed max spatk np 3 attacks gholdengo(stab+focus blast)
You didn’t really need to change the enam it was fine here. Could have just ran specs over scarf.
Kingambit here as the last mon would be fine. Max speed Tera ghost doesn’t sound that bad here.
Also HDB on araq is kinda odd imo you have more value in running red card or custap
now that an actual rater is on how does my specs volcanion team look
For this particular set though I would run red card
what is tera ice on corv for?
kyurem
ight thanks
WHOOPs wrong team lmao
do we really need tspikes on g weez?
guh
its a real set
i mean sure
but i don't see it staying up for very long
strange steam feels better for the confusion
plus chip
Very greedy team imo. CC tusk is frying this team alive. Your best bet is a 50/50 with gweez but that’s not super reliable here since gweez has like 0 attacking moves as well. I’m not really against the 6 mons here though I can see it working. But I feel like the sets are off.
I think this 0 attack gweez set is not going to work since your whole team will just end up walled by hatt. I think Tspikes glowking would make more sense here and just switching corv back to its regular physdef set.
And you’ll probably have to drop one of either volcanion or kyurem since having both is just kinda greedy. Maybe a CB oger wouldn’t be bad here. Addition speed control+not that hazard weak compared to kyurem
qrash what do you think of sd encore pon
try to revisit ur moveset a little, that corvi idea with body press is good but u can't do enough damage
Will-o-wisp pain split volt switch hydro pump leftovers 252 HP 252 def bold Rotom wash
Standard, what’s up
https://pokepast.es/8a3c65477e03c783
Ideas for what to use here? Looking for a 6th and not entirely set on hoodra, I just have always like Goodra :D. Thinking I need something for hazard control
Would you consider this combo it’s best merit over its counterparts
Is this meant to be snow?
For one H-Goodra doesn’t fit on Veil if that’s one of your wincoms
wincons
bc sure it’s tanky with veil but what r u doing against some mons
Balloon Ghold can kinda cook up the team once Goodra is down, and it’s not hard to use something like Lu to set up hazards
esp w the fact tusk isn’t here to spin off hazards or even cm hatt (is that a real set on screens? Idk, if someone can tell me)
Team could be relatively solid but I’d lean more on the screens part over snow
Oh how about you just drop the random atales from there and make this a BO team
Goodra+weav & zama can work
For the only two slots you probably add one of the elephant spinner+an additional spikes setter maybe Hamurott can work
yeah I was messing with aurora veil but I realized snow isn't really as beneficial as I thought. I can get rid of it and leave the core of hoodra weav zama
BO team?
I replaced my atails with a grimmsnarl for screens, not sure about what to do for a 6th
Bulky offense
https://pokepast.es/4b8ea6670e47dc54
I've been trying to figure out a 6th mon to work. The grimm is a set I've been using that can catch some steel types off guard occasionally.
I've tried Dnite, and I didn't like it much. Was gonna give gambito a go but open to suggestions

Zama set is wack, max speed timid is basically never run and psychic fangs doesn’t make sense, do crunch instead. Also, why invest so much into hp on a setup sweep set?
This also feels like mixing archetypes too much, you have a decently standard screens HO but then have Glowking and goodra who dont fit the tempo at all.
A mismatch in momentum is never good.

I'd like to know the best team or balance.
i just go on youtube and get teams and just play with them and mix and match
hmm
Are you building this for doubles
I see
no
Are you building this for doubles
is this a doubles team
there is no such best team
everything will have a bad mu or several
yea
i sent it in the wrong channel but yea
A team has never been created that has solved pokemon
lol
Which is why teambuilding is so appealing
Try to counter everything, and you make a poorly built team cause it will have no functionality
@quartz lark how does the team look overall though?
alr thanks
But in your opinion, which one do you think is better to play?
Thats a layered question
Balance is usually the most consistent
Offense can win any mu
Stall lets you play as aggressively as possible with the smallest repercussions but its also the weakest into bad mus
I'm one of those guys who plays well with any team.
HO has the highest upside
But do you build in every archetype
If any team comes to me, I know how to play.
You should learn how to build as well
I also think
Cause then you're engaging with the meta better than just touring it
How do I put together a really good team?
So what's the secret to leveling up faster in the tiers?
Have fun learn the fundamentals then translate it to in-game skills, after that, learn other tiers to qualify for tours such as the smog tour
ok
The more you build the better you understand the game
A bonus would be getting into rating
To be fluent and gain clarity
hmm ok
Btw I think I told you to replace the screens setter & make the last two mons Hamurott+great tusk

yeah
what do you suggest for bolt?
The set is fine
Something with a good MU into tusk/treads
oger spam!!!!
You could forego the nite and use an oger-base with sd encore
Then you have one slot
boots right?
Yes
how often is ace being used?
nearly 10% on all teams at 1825+
11% at 1625+
and besides why would you not prep for ace if its relavent and has a good mu into your team
then put dnite on your team
court change
tera water garg doesn't look half bad impo
sure raging bolt is a slight issue
but is easily revenge killed
just make garg tera fairy

Can someone helpme build this team im still deciding some moves for mons.
Its a juggernaut Hisuian Samurott build and i rly want hamu to shine with razor shell and ceaseless edge so it can pressure with ceaseless and nuke with razor shell. So yeah i basically want hamu to be the king of this team ig and the other mons to help it nuke teams

Scroll
dang this a whole new team okay
Honestly, the functions of the new batch are pretty similar.
do u midn explaining to me how that team u sent lets samurott play as the nuking juggernaut?
Too greedy
pretty please? (with a cherry on top)
The samu being lorb is too greedy
what does that even mean
oh in my old team
ok
maybe i can use mystic water???1.2x damage + 1.5x with sharpness
No
why not
Boots is better for samu
okay
wait but genuinely how does this team even let samurott nuke n play juggernaut
i have no idea
It doesnt
😭
What it does instead is utilize its utility
It doesn't have to on this team
okay
so then what should i do with this team since its meant for samurott to be juggernaut https://pokepast.es/058b50cf871eaf8f
Use the current team
i mean like is there a way to improve it and it's intended use also ion know what to do for the moves?
These are the changes I proposed for your Samurott-Hisuian team.
These are the improvements I proposed for the Samurott-Hisuian team you posted.
what?
I mean, take it or leave it. Your team has been rated.
ok
This is slightly niche but i like jolly tera fire 124 atk 212 def 172 speed
Yea this looks kinda weird but it lets you 2hko offensive ghold,
Outspeed standard sample zamazenta by 1
And just have the max left over for body press def
This is not a bad 6 at all but you probably need more speed & priority.
Hamu+tusk+torn is normal. Ghold is fine too. I would probably replace Gliscor & raging bolt as it seems to just be overapping here & adding to the ice weakness.
https://pokepast.es/b11f19c5bb6a8090 something like this can work.
Changed gholdengo to scarf and made tusk speed booster energy for a lil more speed control+added priority in Hamurott and rillaboom. Of course you can also just use regular standard boots tusk here too.
Replaced Gliscor for pain split hatt as it helps your matchup into hazards & deals with mons like ting Lu for example.
Av torn helps your MU into most special attackers. Tera steel is nice for resisting moonblast from fairy types.
And yea that’s pretty much it. Your team was fairly standard just had a few overlaps.
Here Samu can be the star with SD black glasses swords dance ripping through defensive core while having other mons like rilla to compliment it.
@shrewd condor
Also the original team wasn’t that bad to be basically removing the entire team. And you barely gave a proper explanation why you scrapped the entire team.
Respectfully please refrain from giving rates if they aren’t going to be that helpful.
Through my propositions I offered some role compressions and some better choices for a Samu-H centered team.
your team has no priority and gets ran over by dragonite and a bunch of other common mons in the tier...
I mean, you can make ace sucker punch offensive
or pult sucker punch offensive
we got some natural speed with zama
you could also do scarf ghold and make pult band prob
the team should be fine into nite and "common stuff"
i dont understand where the hostility is coming from

i'll take a look later
ok
no water resist on the team but it looks like fine
could swap tusk for pon
then i dont really see how it's any bad
with pon over tusk
waterpon that is
not grasspon
Btw you didn’t edit any of the Tera types so you gotta fix that
If Woger replaces Tusk:
- No Removal
- No Ground Immunities
Can remove either Gambit or Lu for Corv.
- No Fire Resist
Can remove either Meowscarada or Woger for Alomomola
Make this a pokepaste next time to ping the raters.
cool thanks
Edit Tera types.
If you’re running max hp tusk speed booster is preferred over boots for more speed control.
I think what you can try here is replace Gliscor for moltres here, make woger spikes utility here. Make meow tera ghost and maybe greed and make meow choiced.

i think rott could be av here, and im not sure abt dirge on this kind of structure
id be inclined to say condense kyu and dirge into a specs pult
then add something to shore up ur mu into opposing fairies
perhaps a slowking
https://pokepast.es/c9893d7372d7dc2a maybe something like this?
i do think structures like this are a little bit easily overwhelmed by ho rn but
After quillo's changes:
- No Ground Immunity
Can remove Meowscarada for Tornadus-Therian.

- Dragon Tail
- Stealth Rock

Not really. Outrage chomp is decent as well
Sd chomp can use outrage.
I think what they're trying to say is that Outrage is the least used move on Garchomp (8.928%), which only sees use below 1695+.
1500+*
??
Usage stats isn’t really relevant to the convo. He wants to make chomp work without scale shot and I said outrage is also usable
Outrage + DD is viable, but Scale Shot + DD is more optimal.
Im saying its mid, i dont care how much people use it
I understand that Outrage is not as good as Scale Shot for Garchomp, though fwiw, DD already boosts speed.
garchomp doesnt even have dd in sv
this guy doesn’t know why Chomp is UUBL
Bc no DD lol
I refuse to believe Chomp would be UUBL in this gen if it got d-dance I’m ngl
could i replace meowscarada with dragapult?
Please don’t start.
garchomp got dragon dance?
garchomp famously does not get dragon dance, please try not to help with tiers you aren’t familiar with
and yeah dice chomp is the more common offchomp variant but sd lorb outrage is a usable breaker asw
ooh okayokay
icic
SD, DD, same shit different toilet, you get what I was saying.
The problem with this is that Dragapult isn’t a reliable fire resist.
Usually you would have a reliable fire resist, which makes for a less reliable fire resist
Take rocks for example. You would want a reliable rocks setter to make way for a less reliable hazard setter for spikes. Like Blissey/Clefable for rocks and then something less reliable for hazard setting like a Clodsire, to use Stall as an example here.
I think I already gave you a rate on your team.

Please don't ping the raters multiple times in succession; let the bot do its job.
Can’t examine teams much rn but I’d say
change Gambit to max hp or run low kick
on ur team I’d say run max hp
wait nvm run low kick
thought I saw a tusk somewhere w zama
ok
fix ur teras and run rocks too
you got no stealth rocker
You alr have a decent Woger check in Pech/Corvi I’d use one slot for Tusk or smth idk
I gotta get back to science fair
ok
- No Fire Resist
Can remove Gholdengo for Garganacal.
*Garganacl
spa?
?
It's missing a spa.
What does that acronym mean?
specially attack
Raging Bolt over Gambit?
Keep Ghold and use Garg over Pech?
Could be wrong tho, just thoughts
I don’t think Gambit is bad. It gives a solid ghost resist for ghold and pult.
Did you see qrash's comments?
WIP
was thinking about using hrott for role compression
spikes, knock off pivot + av instead of prim
but prim is a lot bulkier and useful switch in
yeah
Since you have another bulky fairy in hatt, this role compression is fine.
just wanted new feedback
Ladder, post your peak
Yeah thats what i thought
anything else?
Mhm hm
me?
Cookie
kk
Ill give hrott + a diff tusk set a go
If you’re running cm hatterene you don’t want pain split you would rather mystical fire to hit gholdengo
And yea you can definitely use hrott over prim here. Maybe make Hrott AV or torn
I was thinking AV hrott, but also was thinking hrott could be a scarfer instead
