hold on

[queen saddle]

[knotty sundial]

what does treads provide you that tusk wouldn't

[queen saddle]

a steel type and a way to beat Pech

well

shadow ball pech at least

Raging Bolt too

Helps against Kyurem

Crown

[topaz relic]

https://pokepast.es/04b1221eaa59ba20 <- any advice?

[nocturne sable]

Team looks fairly standard. Probably have to opt for Twave spam on both glowking & Zapdos though cuz the team is kinda slow

Outside of gambit priority

If you’re not running fire fang then run Tera ghost SD chomp

Try sd Rilla over band

Otherwise looks good

[celest willow]

Life orb?

[nocturne sable]

Yes

Also make heatran rocks so you can run 3 attacks on tusk

[celest willow]

over taunt or protect

[nocturne sable]

The sets you’re running here are not optimal. If you’re running hex Ghold you run defensive Twave gold hex without Twave is just wildly inconsistent and you don’t even have enough status spreaders to be running solo hex.

Primarina set is super wack, you’re trying to make it a physical wall but it’s terrible at that job.

So to fix your team:
-Pecharunt is fine.
-Zama is fine.
-Make gholdengo scarf Twave.
-make Lando max speed.
-drop primarina for Hamurott. Make this double ghost Hstack:
-Hatt is pretty flexible here. Can try CM or pain split

[blissful basin]

with the lando , the set is fine or do i need to tune it

[nocturne sable]

Make it max speed max hp

[blissful basin]

and the iv's for the Ghol

[nocturne sable]

Can also try max speed max attack if you’re running earthquake over earth power

[blissful basin]

alright ill try both

[nocturne sable]

Ghold is just standard scarf set with Twave trick & stab moves

[blissful basin]

this is what im seeing for the scarf set iv's

[nocturne sable]

Yea that’s fine

[blissful basin]

alright

[nocturne sable]

Hisui samurott make it Assault vest

[blissful basin]

and regular vest set for the samu?

[blissful basin]

alr

[nocturne sable]

Yes

[blissful basin]

https://pokepast.es/56b765a28aa5646c

this is it now

[nocturne sable]

Yea looks fine

Make Ghold Tera ghost though

[blissful basin]

bet

[tepid hazel]

wait what is tera ghost for on ghold again? is there a calc I'm forgetting or it's just for stronger neutrals

I usually go water myself out of comfort zone, I mean not on scarf on scarf I'm usually steel I think?

[nocturne sable]

Tera ghost is usually just for stronger shadow balls

Against neutral opponents yea

[tepid hazel]

so stronger neutrals, okay.

gotcha, I prefer make it rain stronger for a couple of reasons but yeah alright.

[nocturne sable]

Tera steel make it rain is usually only used for metal coat variants

[tepid hazel]

oh, interesting. I mostly play on national dex so

it's my weird substitution for steelium z when I play usually

noted

[autumn hare]

that team is never beating stall

[tepid hazel]

he can probably swap a couple things for something else and keep the identity of the team intact

maybe like swords dance samurott or something

av samu is kinda wacky here imo

yeah,I also weirdly rly like NP ghold scarf lando here

just opinions though

since scarf ghold I prefer on other teams is all

opinions chat?

[nocturne sable]

Okay so this isn’t entirely true

Although I didn’t peep he was psyshock over psychic noise on hatt

@tepid hazel probably have to change that too^

But yea Hamurott hazard stack is beating stall most of the time

[tepid hazel]

change what

[knotty sundial]

psyshock to psynoise

[nocturne sable]

Make hatterene psychic noise over psyshock

[tepid hazel]

why ping me I'm so confused 😭

what did I do lol

[knotty sundial]

lol @blissful basin

[nocturne sable]

I’m just telling you to change one thing 😭

Wait

Lol

[knotty sundial]

you pinged the wrong person

[nocturne sable]

You’re the wrong person

[tepid hazel]

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN

😭😭

[nocturne sable]

😭😭😭

My fault @tepid hazel

[tepid hazel]

kk

[nocturne sable]

One more thing change hatt to psychic noise over psyshock

[tepid hazel]

not gonna lie I wanna test the changes I'd say I'd recommend

just to see if the changes I like are even good Lol

I did just blabber without much thought, just mostly instinctive

/intuitive

[tepid hazel]

huh I just realized, no hazard removal

maybe that why I liked scarf landorus

there is hatte at least

[nocturne sable]

Okay so like on your opinions about the change now I’m actually paying attention to it.

I don’t really get how AV hamu is tacky here. Pretty standard on structures like these.

Although trial and error exit, team is fine enough where it can be run & tested for a good stretch of games.

Although like I can see where NP on one of the ghost can come to play. Maybe rocks scarf Lando is fine here so Hatt can be helmet.

[tepid hazel]

I see 🤔, maybe I think too much like a national dex player. got that... I am very generally aware of the metagame though I think.

[nocturne sable]

There’s like hatt. But team isn’t that hazard weak in general so it’s not the end of the world.

Maybe hamu stack is a rough MU but that’s about it

[tepid hazel]

nah I think outplays is he really plausible, shouldn't be 100-0 at least so it ain't bad lol

hamu mirror would be interesting tho

also I said "av looks whack on hamu" since doesn't hamu usually want another special wall alongside it

or am I trippin

hamu can just check things in my experience

not answer them

at least just a mixed wall

do u still generally just... play hamu teams like this offensively but it just blankets special threats?

[nocturne sable]

Basically yea

[tepid hazel]

ohhh I see.

good to know, just making sure i have my facts right.

more of a natdex player so I like my confirmation with these things

like stated previously

also I generally prefer black glasses on it

god do I love double black glasses teams

ish fun

am I high or I should remove zama or pecha, probably pecha on the team I'm going for @nocturne sable

I feel like with no av on hamu I'd hate special threats

wait let me show u what I've come up with first

idea is probably something like that?

whatcha think

so basically it's just a gambit team now 😂

[knotty sundial]

why stone edge over crunch?

on zama

[tepid hazel]

I think I'd be fine without it 🤔 why

wait I'm genuinely confused lol

[knotty sundial]

to hit ghosts that are immune to body press

[tepid hazel]

I'm starting to realize tera ghost exists... uh

yeah lemme change that

hm maybe I'd prefer encore samu here...

[knotty sundial]

you could move stone edge to lando if you still want it somewhere

get edgequake coverage

[tepid hazel]

not rly just play like a national dex player

and that's what we usually do when u have dark types, normally with pursuit.

u jus kindaaaaaaaa remove crunch for edge usually

[knotty sundial]

no pursuit to worry about here

[tepid hazel]

yyyyep

ye I think I'll test with boots hamu

seems fun, for the gambita and the zama

[alpine furnace]

If anything thats closer to offense since there are offensive teams with hatterene or alomomola as defensive mons that help give the team offensive momentum.

[limber marlin]

thinking about building with this core. Thoughts on where to take it?

https://pokepast.es/d6c906a1876b4d9a

[lucid onyx]

Take it to ou duh

[tepid hazel]

💀"SD chomp good" I've never made it work so good luck 🫠

I genuinely hate that set if it ain't national dex

[knotty sundial]

what are those speed EVs for?

[alpine furnace]

Gambit pairs well with a lot of mons, I'd recommend something like Zamazenta, and if you're fine with changing Chomp to like stealth rock then Alomomola works. Chomp, Zamazenta, Alomomola, Corviknight, Kingambit, insert 6th mon seems like a good start.

[knotty sundial]

on both

[nocturne sable]

Unfortunately zama without crunch isn’t really viable since you’re just going to get walled by gholdengo and pecharunt.

Maybe make Lando stone edge here to actually hit moltres.

Maybe add glimm here over Hatt since your tspike mu is kinda rough here. If you’re adding glim here I would make it red card to phase out other mons.

Boots hamu could be fine here, make gambit HP invested.

Make zama standard iron defense body press set with crunch & roar.

[tepid hazel]

sounds good. thanks. not gonna lie I think I just also lost to a zama I don't remember I kinda testing another team rn lol

but uh yeah thanks

[nocturne sable]

My thing with SD chomp is that if you’re running Tera ghost, run stone edge so you can actually 0hko moltres. Tera fire if you’re running fire fang. You can also run Tera blast electric which can do the same thing basically while also beating corviknight.

Non max speed low kick gambit is generally bad since the point of running low kick gambit is to outspeed other Kingambits and kill them with low kick.

For the rest of the team you just make this to an offense team. Glimmora, zamazenta, could add one one the ogers and maybe an offensive Zapdos as one of the last mons.

[tepid hazel]

also ehem ehem SD chomp unfortunately trash in svou imo

like srsly

what does it achieve exactly?

I am honestly curious

it feels like it gets shut down so easily.

am I high or just my experience running it

[nocturne sable]

SD chomp faces a lot of competition but it’s usable

[nocturne sable]

https://pokepast.es/eaabae08940ed1dd

@limber marlin something like this

[merry meteor]

Hey guys I tried to build a team around the Hoopa band/ Future Sight Glowking core but I do struggle vs some hyper offense team/set up sweeper team and stack hazards as well. Any suggestion to improve the team?
https://pokepast.es/75279308b9e1bc21

[limber marlin]

late response but it outspeeds kyurem

[limber marlin]

its like dnite/dd kyu but it muscles through pecharunt, ignores multiscale thx to scale shot, and forces chip onto Zama/Tusk

[nocturne sable]

Structure seems standard. I would probably make mola AV here and glowking physdef to deal with woger better. Might want shuca berry here since your tusk MU seems rough

I think you replace zama here with cinderace

[merry meteor]

Thanks! Cinderace would be nice. But how should I deal with Ogerpon-W, dragonite ddance, Kingambit?? (Who is woger?)
Good point for Great Tusk, but normally Enamorus can kill it or Zamazenta can easily wall it

[knotty sundial]

woger is ogerpon wellspring

[nocturne sable]

Physical defensive slowking can 1v1 woger. Cinderace can outspeed and click U-turn on woger

[knotty sundial]

glowking not slowking

[nocturne sable]

Yea mb

Also you have tusk to check kingambit @merry meteor. maybe here you can make it rocky helmet since you’re adding ace as additional hazard control

Dnite is a case where you just have to use Tera to have it not go out of control

I mean you can literally pivot into dnite with enamorus

[merry meteor]

I think tera normal dnite kills ena at +1?

Thanks a lot both for explications!!! I'll try to modify the team!!!

[nocturne sable]

Oop yea Espeed at +1 kills.

But like I said if dnite gets out of control Tera tusk can bail you out

[low phoenix]

https://pokepast.es/49dd6ae3cc23b5b0

Does this team need more breaking power or is it good

[nocturne sable]

Okay so you probably need ice fang on zama here to help break Gliscor

[round portal]

felt silly so i built this psyspam :P https://pokepast.es/fbd384d42f9986a7

felt like it could cheese through a lot of common bad matchups

[knotty sundial]

why is zama tera stellar

[nocturne sable]

Ogerpon and zama here are pretty random

[nocturne sable]

Stellar zama is a thing

[knotty sundial]

without blast?

[nocturne sable]

Why would you run Tera blast zama

[round portal]

ogerpon was meant to be a lead and threaten dmg on stuff like lu idk

[nocturne sable]

The point of stellar is that Zamas coverage is so good that you use Tera stellar to power them up and pick up KOs

[knotty sundial]

what is this for

oh I guess

[nocturne sable]

Well you already have 2 potential lead Pokemon in indeedee & iron treads so I don’t get why you need that oger lead

[round portal]

ah fair

[nocturne sable]

Much rather psychic seed hawlucha here, maybe eject hatt can also work

[round portal]

does lucha prefer coverage for ghold or encore/taunt

[nocturne sable]

Encore

But gholdengo isn’t affected by taunt or encore regardless

Probably you run Tera blast ground to bypass Ghold

[round portal]

i wanted polteageist to be the tera hog ngl

[nocturne sable]

Hmm fair enough. So just chip Ghold down enough for lucha to clean then

[round portal]

is throatchop/fpunch a real move for lucha

[nocturne sable]

Idk about throat chop, but fire punch Tera fire could be a thing to play around burn and hit Ghold

[nocturne sable]

But like there’s also something about that. Not every matchup is going to be favourable for teapot even if you want it to hog Tera

So you look at other possible wincons like hoopa-U and hawlucha incase the match isn’t favourable for teapot

[round portal]

ah fair

[tired gazelle]

Anyone can give me a good lulanateam with nothing but ghost types

[round portal]

lunala is ubers :P

[tired gazelle]

my bad

I'll go to another chat

[nocturne sable]

Not an Ubers guy just generally if you want stuff like this maybe go to Monotype channels and stuff because that’s the tier where you use teams full of Pokemon with the same type. If you’re asking it for standard Ubers though they probably won’t go with arbitrary rules like that.

[final relic]

you need more removal than corv

id just ace > meow here you dont really need knock that badly and its still useable speed control

so many fat mons + lu it shouldnt be an issue to deal with like booster mons

[jade cedar]

what set?

[final relic]

hm

you can probably just be wisp here

id twave > toxic gking

[nocturne sable]

Probably regular bulky ace ye

Can also try nasty plot pecha as another wincon+brave bird>body press on corviknight for Woger

[jade cedar]

not like full atk or hp?

oh sry just saw it

[jade cedar]

without body press I feel like I would be weak to gambit I've been against a lot of tera fire ones

[blissful basin]

https://pokepast.es/000ba090dc2cf210

i just made it to test out random picks

[nocturne sable]

I understand gambit MU worries but like, if you force Tera fire you just go to your own ting Lu

[nocturne sable]

Synergy of this team feels off. Don’t really get what this team is trying to be

[blissful basin]

i just put random things together

but i wanna keep the alo, gliscor, clef and ghol

[nocturne sable]

Oh that’s definitely workable

https://pokepast.es/07f08418dd50a10e maybe something like this

[queen saddle]

https://pokepast.es/59600fc017803948

I decided on trying to form a Tinkaton + Chomp BO, due to how with Garchomp, I noticed struggles with Kyurem and Weavile
Tinkaton can actually help beat both though, and sets up hazards in the face of anything. I’m not sure whether to do mold breaker or pickpocket, for Weavile or for Hatt
I found that this core as well is really solid in Chomp + Sp def Tres + Pecharunt

And I wanted speed control in Za, but noticed I didn’t have a water resist

So I just added an SD Woger to help vs stall and have a water immunity

Also piss off Alo

lmk if utility Woger is better tho

[nocturne sable]

Keep mold breaker imo your hatt MU without it looks pretty annoying

Ice fang>>heavy slam on zama to hit Gliscor

Can also do like spikes horn leech knock off ivy cudgel woger

Or U-turn over horn leech

[limber crystal]

https://pokepast.es/b61a44600b900083

[queen saddle]

feels like a good bulky offense but with a random Hydreigon

Dragapult could be placed over it

Also what’s the speed evs for?

on Gambit

Gking set feels awkward btw, I’d use psy noise for sub mons like Prim, Moth, and Kyurem

sludge bomb for the higher poison chance over wave

and ice beam because your Glis matchup seems hard

and while hurricane is of course a very viable option on Moltres, consider roar for phasing and setup sweepers or willowisp for status spread

also I lwk lied gliscor doesn’t seem bad, just I’d use smth else over flame
but it can stay if you think it’s best

[queen saddle]

Edited team, tres was meant to be sp def here, dk why it wasn’t, I think it’s bc I disconnected and the server got the wrong version
Also made Ogerpon 236 atk w 8 hp 12 def to live CC from max atk Val and Tusk after rocks and power whip from opposing ogers from full

[limber crystal]

Dreigon hits harder

basically no safe switch in for it

[queen saddle]

Yeah but it’s also slower

Just to note

you don’t have a single mon with a base speed over 100

specs Pult is still extremely difficult to switch into

[limber crystal]

I don’t really need speed all that much

I got bulk and priority

[queen saddle]

you have one form of priority, and a specs Dragapult can mess this team up if you pivot wrong

A stone edge ice fang Za too

There are many Pokémon you cannot just count out

Woger gets play rough, and if your Apple cannot kill an SD boosted woger after a play rough, then either you’re losing a lot of mons, or you’re losing

because you can’t outspeed it

And Gambit is unreliable priority, due to low PP and it being a gambling game

Either way, all a mon needs to do is break your core, and the rest could take over

[nocturne sable]

Make drapple rocky helmet don’t think you need boots spam that much.

Add the 4 evs on your tusk.

Make gambit Tera dark if you’re black glasses.

Team is kinda slow so you probably need to either make hydriegon a scarfer or replace it with another scarfer that can learn trick like meowscarada,latios,darkrai,gholdengo, etc

And yea like what others said above you probably need ice beam more than you need flamethrower otherwise Gliscor is kinda rough to deal with

Your Ghold Mu is already decent with gambit moltres etc

[slender nova]

my team, i'm beginner

[gray karma]

I personally like this team but some moveset are wrong, so I recommend :

For teracrystal :

• Water on Gliscor (so u don't get x4 on ice types)
• Dragon or Fighting on Corviknight, I personally prefer Dragon
• Steel on Toxapex
• Flying on Skeledirge

For items :

• Leftovers on Rillaboom is decent but I recommend you to use the choice band moveset adamant

• Heavy-duty Boots or Air Balloon on Skeledirge, I prefer Heavy-duty Boots

For Moveset

• Use Band moveset on Rillaboom, it's a sample moveset as I remember

• Will-o-Wisp Hex Slack Off and Torch Song on Skeledirge

• Surf Toxic Spikes Recover Haze on Toxapex

I think that's all because ur team seems really decent.

Maybe try to use an Entry Hazards remover like Great Tusk or Iron Treads

i saw defog on corvi so ig it's either Defog either Spin both work I like both

I hope it helps because I am not the best on this server 😭

And sorry if I have bad English tho

This isn't exactly a team rate, but rather a need of advice.

[final relic]

you should try to add some removal

two banded mons + no hazard removal will go badly

tusk usually works well on this kind of zap gking structure

[inner terrace]

you also have no ground which tusk takes care of

[final relic]

oh that's the other thing generally on bulky offense like this you dont wanna stack 2 cb mons

[inner terrace]

think pult can be specs here

and it's like fine then

[final relic]

yeah probably

you can drop clef for tusk make zap tera grass

then should be like fine

[inner terrace]

yeah think that's fine

you can also consider berry gking like shuca berry gking

works pretty nice with ice beam

Hello everyone, sorry if I'm bothering you, but I'd like some feedback on my team. What do you think, and what changes would you recommend? (The whole team revolves around Feraligatr; if I remove it, I'll have to change the entire team's composition.) 😁 https://pokepast.es/4117dd75b954cf71

[inner terrace]

uturn doesnt do anything here on stall ngl

just make it ironpress

with like 72 hp 240+ def 196 speed

boots blissey

boots dozo with either waterfall or crunch

haze over infest on pex

if you want you can run scor faster than ceru

[inner terrace]

for a feraligatr team it's like okay

but it's also a feraligatr team so

maybe gking over weez

[jade cedar]

isn't a form of switching good regradless?

[inner terrace]

on stall not really

[jade cedar]

also I feel like I need brave bird for woger

[inner terrace]

unless you have something like trapping

phys def pex can handle

any tera dragon, grass

if u want run toxic pjab on pex

for that

[jade cedar]

is the team generally good tho?

[unique sigil]

saw this team online https://pokepast.es/3825dd0a41712534
i have a decent W/R w it

[inner terrace]

mmm i think sets are really important on stall

you lose to ghold stack without the boots and long term kingambit can be an issue without press

the 6 mons is fine though

[inner terrace]

then keep it as is

[undone latch]

https://pokepast.es/0fd3e16ddfdbf865

make corv lando, make pex bolt or gambit

and make azu a belly drum set

[undone latch]

Pex does pretty well tho

[inner terrace]

i think u make it bolt

pex i feel like gets a bit redundant and doesnt rlly fit on this team structure

[undone latch]

Gotchu

[inner terrace]

is this yours?

it probably can work

[undone latch]

What build on Lando?

[inner terrace]

uh the typical defensive set

with eq

max hp max speed

rocks taunt

uturn

[undone latch]

Cool

[unique sigil]

ye

[inner terrace]

probably usable

trick room is like you can do a bunch of stuff but it's cheese so you'll win some and lose some

off of preview

[unique sigil]

its just cheese tbf

catches em off guard icl

[undone latch]

What build on Bolt?

Specs or Booster

[inner terrace]

booster

[undone latch]

Did so

[wide girder]

Are you sure? Because afterwards I won't have any way to remove the hazards.

[inner terrace]

bro u have a great tusk

oh yeah put hlr on tusk over cc

[wide girder]

Okay

Make tusk rocks over knock off

why tera poison? also should i be running lefties or covert cloak

i've also been told that my team just doesn't mix well for one archetype, how should i fix that?

toxic immunity, and you're not worried about ground due to levitate so you're only weak to psychic

flips the bug weakness

[tardy sparrow]

bump

[queen saddle]

I think Ghold as one of your win cons would be better

aka nasty plot over twave hex

also would toxapex just be better

over moth?

overall seems relatively standard just I’d use Pex over Moth

[queen saddle]

ngl this team looks fine

If you’re new at the game and made this

good job

this is

pretty damn good

[tardy sparrow]

NP ghold does makes sense here and does help vs stall too, thanks for the advice

[queen saddle]

no problem

[tardy sparrow]

maybe using the iron moth with something pex doesnt get like whirlwind would be more thematic then?

especially given it would synergise with the hstack

[queen saddle]

could be to give it more of a niche

But this set w gunk shot/pjab is js better w Pex

[tardy sparrow]

i see

[queen saddle]

seems good

should use boots Tusk tho

Dragapult isn’t bad but looks annoying

[undone latch]

Anyone?

[queen saddle]

corvi doesn’t fit here

It defogs your terrain away and spikes

[gray karma]

Skeledirge --> HP and Def or HP and SpDef EV. HP SpAtk can also be playable but def evs are useless without hp evs

[queen saddle]

Also salt cure and eq is only used really with curse sets

make it rocks

You don’t rlly have a spdef guy other than Glis

sooooo

6’0ed by Kyurem

team is js kinda messy

[undone latch]

So, what do I add instead?

[undone latch]

Gotchu, thanks!

[queen saddle]

I dont rlly know how well this team can work even tbh

2 members of your team has eq with Rillaboom on it

And you don’t have a hazard remover other than Corvi which messes you up

And some hazard weak teammates

[undone latch]

Do I rebuild from scratch?

[queen saddle]

with Dirge

that’s what I would personally do like you can make

a Rillaboom offense team or smth

or bulky offense

since it seems like you wanted to build something like that

[undone latch]

Okay Ig

[nocturne sable]

Why are you air balloon dirge, heavy duty boots is way better.

You also want a stealth rock setter so either garg or Scor. Me personally I go rocks Gliscor here

Maybe also drop Garg for iron hands here, would be very threatening se tup sweeper especially with terrain

Pex is way too passive here I would rather glimmora for the offensive pressure. Scarf glimmora wouldn’t even be bad here.

[undone latch]

Cool, thanks!

What about Corv? Is he fine?

[nocturne sable]

I’m not going to lie, a lot of these sets here are really un optimal but corvi is one of the fine ones here

[undone latch]

Do I drop Spikes on Glis and replace it with Rocks?

[queen saddle]

yes

spikes is pretty redundant with defog

also

I recommend rocky helmet

boots is fine

but helmet punishing with shi like uturn

it’s helpful

but if you rlly want yk to avoid rocks which is fair

then you can run that

helps vs woger anyways

[nocturne sable]

https://pokepast.es/e275c5ba406f1d4f maybe something like this

[nocturne sable]

Terrain extender is useless with no set up sweepers. Change this to swords dance or something.

You can also make pecharunt nasty plot to fit the pace of the team better, outside of that seems almost standard

Tera water is not bad

[undone latch]

for Kyurem

just uh

rocks messes his team up bad

yeah @lime oracle you kinda want smth more standard for rain

there’s actually a beartic rain team for OU

I think

If you wanna try that out

Politoed needs to go tho

[ebon juniper]

https://psim.us/t/1552305-ylgqe0qolv6q1vv1h0li

[jade cedar]

I feel like you're trying to shove more then one playstyle in the same team, you really just stick to one although i do notice that all of them are mainly HO which choiced mons aren't recommended in unless it has pivot and be essential

[ebon juniper]

whats Ho?

[jade cedar]

Hyper offense

[ebon juniper]

so I need more defense?

[jade cedar]

no if your going to that route you should stick with one playstyle to be more consistent, like in your team you have a sticky web setter and a sun setter with specs kyu being there for god knows why. generally if you're still confused go take a look at the samples to see and understand better or ask in #comp-general

also ho is basically a full team of offensive mon with one mon doing something so everyone can abuse it, sun, hazards or screens

[ebon juniper]

👍

[nocturne sable]

This is pretty salvageable. Glimmora and tusk are usually a great fit on web teams, however you probably need to change some of the sets here like making tusk booster energy over rocky helmet here.

And yea as the other person above said you’re kinda mixing playstyles with a Ninetales+walking wake sun core and a random specs kyurem.

If you want to go for a webs structure. Booster spatk agility wake can work. If you want to keep kyurem you can make it dragon dance variant like sub Dd. Then you probably replace Ninetales for a ghost like Ceruledge/gholdengo

https://pokepast.es/0a6458f51aef90e2 I think for now just run something like this

[ebon juniper]

can i replace kingambit with wake?

[nocturne sable]

I mean I was thinking about making walking wake its agility set but I felt like stacking too many dragon at the same time didn’t feel right to me

[ebon juniper]

oh yeaaaa k thx

[nocturne sable]

Np

[ebon juniper]

last question how do I build walking wake agilty?

[nocturne sable]

Walking Wake @ Booster Energy

Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe

Hey @hallow field, 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.

[queen saddle]

Would head smash be better there?

And high crit chance too

[queen saddle]

this looks like a mix of HO and BO

and it’s not that great for it to be that way

Although I think turning this into BO is the best thing for this team

goodra doesnt rlly want sludge wave or pulse imo

I’d say draco for actual damage with Goodra

and

eq so you dont get walled forever by gking

and if you rlly wanna hit fairies go w your stab flash cannon

AV Rilla is eh

try SD

Idk how well Enam fits here

but idk how to change it either

Boots Tusk is the way tho

Glimm could be power herb

and Tusk can be rocks

Also your Goodra should be more HP over Spdef bc Woger doesn’t seem easy

[gray karma]

Tera Blast Stellar on Ena 🤤

I lowk prefer knock off on h-goodra for G-Slowking so if u setup entry hazards it still gets damages since it's mainly played Hdb

[queen saddle]

that works too

tbh forgot it got that

[limber crystal]

[queen saddle]

that’s also just #1059714627384115290 too

[frigid oak]

Playing on this cobblemon server and currently there are nat dex rankeds there

[frigid oak]

Oki thanks for advice

I will try there and look at sum tamplets

[nocturne sable]

Why are we running sash on a BO team, just run red card or something

AV rillaboom seems redundant just make its regular wall breaking set, you’re free to run Tera blast sd lo here

Cc/rock move on tusk>>knock off

[knotty sundial]

252 Atk Wellspring Mask Ogerpon-Wellspring Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 36 HP / 0 Def Goodra-Hisui: 121-143 (39 - 46.1%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

and sludge wave 2hkos

that's the other reason other than fairies to run sludge wave

[knotty sundial]

I did consider it, I feel like I lose out on a lot of important coverage if I remove something I currently have

same for knock

[knotty sundial]

oh what type? idt I'm familiar with the tera blast set

[nocturne sable]

Usually Tera blast electric for molt and corv

[knotty sundial]

hm

so like sd+glide+wood hammer+tera?

[knotty sundial]

dyt red card or the meteor beam set would be better

[nocturne sable]

Sd glide knock Tera

[knotty sundial]

ah

[nocturne sable]

Red card is fine here it will help you with phasing and setting up Tspikes

I like meteor beam glimm on more ho teams

[knotty sundial]

that makes sense

[knotty sundial]

is this for like kyurem and ting-lu

and maybe hlr doesn't ohko gambit

(for cc)

[nocturne sable]

Yea kyurem and Lu mainly

[knotty sundial]

kk

[unique sigil]

https://pokepast.es/94c601a32945a90b

?

[nocturne sable]

Looks standard

Ceruledge @ Life Orb
Ability: Weak Armor
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 112 HP / 252 Atk / 32 Def / 112 Spe
Adamant Nature

• Swords Dance
• Poltergeist
• Bitter Blade
• Shadow Sneak

I think this set will allow you to live non attacking item darkrai at full which is seems your team is weak too

[winged topaz]

reposting

[rapid barn]

yeah you have no knock off on a hazard stack

and the sets could use some help

[winged topaz]

what’s the main problems to fix?

[rapid barn]

knock off

you could easily add it on gliscor or samurott hisui

you could drop protect and tspikes

tusk if you want to run 4 attacks better to run cc and headlong rush

[ebon juniper]

https://psim.us/t/1550845-x9lpdxgsq5b2lyjdg7qs

plus none of Chomps moves make contact

[queen saddle]

hmmmmmmm

not a bad idea

Appreciate that

[nocturne sable]

You’re immune to espeed and zama stabs

Also boots knock deoxys is kinda wasted on non Hstack teams. Maybe nasty plot Deoxys here?

[queen saddle]

Kinda like knock, but also not a bad idea

I do hate relying on focus blast tho lol

but again not a bad idea

anything else?

[nocturne sable]

Not much else to comment on looks pretty standard otherwise for me

Maybe Tera poison Lu

[gritty finch]

Been trying to experiment with sun teams. Is there anything I can do to improve this?

https://pokepast.es/8f93396d177abe55

[gray karma]

Put Close Combat Solar Blade Triple Axel Tera Blast with Tera Crystal Fire and Life Orb

[gritty finch]

Sounds good! Is there any other areas on this team have any potenial issues?

[final relic]

this looks mostly ok

id make it a jolly gambit with low kick here

probably air balloon too

if youre gonna use ground move on venu anyway you might as well run EQ + naive nature

[nocturne sable]

Wait what’s wrong with earth power venu

[final relic]

its pretty strictly worse than eq

eq helps cover stall and between the bp increase and the sameish offensive stats venu has

it ends uo hitting about as hard anyway

on the relevant targets that is

like hold on

this for example is obviously just more damage

or like

any 4x weak like moth / heatran will take 300% anyway

its nothing big but its just usually optimal

[nocturne sable]

Oh makes sense

[unique sigil]

https://pokepast.es/29c75bc918e215c3 ?

any help

[queen saddle]

turn this into ho by removing the clef scarf Lando and Oger

Use power herb or something across those lines Glimm for rocks and breaking and whatnot

i would tell u tusk over bolt but thats already a known team

zama over bolt could work

[nocturne sable]

If you’re running endure policy ceruledge you might aswell run 3 attacks because you most likely won’t be able to get another swords dance.

[queen saddle]

lwk didnt realize it was endure ceru

[nocturne sable]

Also you’re mixing playstyles half your mons don’t even fit screens Ho

[jade cedar]

what set

idef

[ebon juniper]

https://psim.us/t/1556898-khj5kfuqivvd1taktpev

[inner terrace]

i kinda like the idea here but you are weak to gambit and i feel like making use of veil more would be nice

[ebon juniper]

veil?

[inner terrace]

maybe make it like a semi screens type of deal where you have like a mon to abuse screens

aurora veil

/screens

same thing

[ebon juniper]

oh how would I make more use of it?

[inner terrace]

so like you could try double dance scor

add an idef zama since you are weak to gambit

maybe a plot ghold

[ebon juniper]

who should I get rid of?

[inner terrace]

and light clay over icy rock since i think you dont need that many turns with blizz kyu

[ebon juniper]

k

[inner terrace]

ace, sciz

[ebon juniper]

👍

[inner terrace]

also drop draco for freeze dry

freeze dry is kinda important for kyu

[ebon juniper]

are water types a threat or something?

[inner terrace]

you have pon

and kyu

[ebon juniper]

🤔(im clearing missing something here aren't I😭 )

[inner terrace]

oh what im trynna say is

you want to be able to hit water types super effectively

because freeze dry + ep goes virtually unresisted

but with ice beam and blizzard only you can only hit like

well you lose to some special waters

like prim

[lucid onyx]

I've made 3 very similar teams here. I'm confused which as to which one is the best at mid ladder. Pls help me choose.

https://pokepast.es/b7c6da6569580fad

https://pokepast.es/b69b436311d34841

https://pokepast.es/520ce9f99e0dce92

[nocturne sable]

Test them first and find out

[lucid onyx]

I did for a while all of them struggle against booster ironval

The corv one loses to cinderace unless I instantly tera my corv

And the glowking one loses to sun unless I tera water

[queen saddle]

Something considered pivot spam is like

3-4 mons using uturn/volt or wtv

[nocturne sable]

Wait hold on. The first one…

https://pokepast.es/cc06b756c6f596d8 use something like this.

-Superpower oger is unoptimal compared to low kick since you still hit a lot of the top fighting weak Pokémon’s with 120 power(gambit, ting Lu, kyurem, heatran, etc) but here we are using rock tomb to make your moltres MU better.

Iron head tusk is wack counter play for iron valiant tbh, I would just make it the rocker here so that you can drop Tornadus>moltres for a better fairy & kyurem MU. Then you can run Tera ghost pecharunt here over heatran for extra spin blocking and still making your mu into physical attackers like great tusk decent.

Hamurott changed to black glasses to make it more threatening. Then Ghold is free to run scarf here for speed control

[queen saddle]

Feel like Bolt here could be cm for a wincon

Or SD Woger

also you have lots of hazards but no spin blocker

[lucid onyx]

Tysm I'll try this out. Why have u given moltres 12 speed? What does it outspeed?

[nocturne sable]

Max speed jolly gambit

[queen saddle]

Treads and Corvi removes hazards easily vs this

[lucid onyx]

Ah ic

[lucid onyx]

Also I had iron also for tera fairy tera blast gambits and ironvals as my team almost always lost to mixed vals

[queen saddle]

doesn’t pech/molt beat it

esp mixed, pech beats it

[lucid onyx]

This is a new one

[lucid onyx]

[queen saddle]

Why is Hatt eject button on this team

this should just turn into pivot spam imo so

Change Hatt w uhhhh lwk idk who but let me think

Js hatt doesn’t fit here

and make Lokix boots

your team is very weak to Wogerpon

Ngl I like sp def Tres and Pecharunt along w Samu on this team

Let me go in builder rq

@young gust https://pokepast.es/ee5c1d394d78d16b

Valiant and Kyurem feel interchangeable in this core but with this you can pivot more freely

I use specs Val for stall breaking but mixed boots work here

literally boots spam lmao

against a specs Kyurem it’s a little hard imo but you can pivot with sp def tres and Val

And Tusk can soak knock

I was slightly worried abt speed control but you have first impression priority and Zama can be dealt with Pecharunt easily

Pult may be your only concern but t dark Pech walls band sets

and specs is not too hard to deal with using Tres

go to another

There is spin on tusk

[chilly breach]

This the pokepaste

[queen saddle]

I dont like how you dont have reliable answer for

Bolt

[queen saddle]

oh mb

[swift pumice]

Anyway uh uh uh

It's solid enough, I just can't see how I can get it to beat stall without overhauling the whole thing

[queen saddle]

Enam goes hard vs your team too

[queen saddle]

Band rilla

Idk why it’s lefties

[swift pumice]

Tbf yeah he's pulling the least weight. Tera fire blast or?

Maybe ice

[queen saddle]

I also dont like this Ceru set or Ceru that much here

[swift pumice]

It's been putting in crazy work I promise

[queen saddle]

Can’t Hawlucha just do smth like it

it’s gterrain

[swift pumice]

No priority though, I'd be even worse into bolt which is already a problem

[queen saddle]

Horrible matchup into sun ngl

gtg will rate later unless smb beats me to it

[swift pumice]

Ceru helps, shadow sneak chops up sun well after hazards

[jade cedar]

I mean yeah but it's the easiest thing that a newbie can make AND generally easier then other archetypes to play if you have a decent team

[split hamlet]

Version 1: https://pokepast.es/012eb31a07c906fe
Version 2: https://pokepast.es/79ab0f682eb542c9
which one?

or are they both cooked

[worn lark]

v1 is mixing archetypes way too much

corv and alo with CB breloom except you also have a booster iron moth for some reason

the prim one is a lot better imo tho that set is a bit greedy

[torn lance]

hey all, this is the team I started using. It's mainly a sand team with Excedrill as the main sweeper. What changes should I make? After playing with it, I realized I have a hard time dealing with corv and a lot of grass types

[knotty sundial]

you need EVs on skeledirge

[torn lance]

I just redid skeledirge to post on here I had on my team earlier thats mb

[knotty sundial]

it would be your best corv and grass answer except for waterpon

[torn lance]

Gotcha is there any mons I should swap out or nah

[knotty sundial]

what's your counterplay to dozo?

[torn lance]

Tera grass skeledirge

then i click terablast

[knotty sundial]

hmm

usually dirge wants slack off for longevity

but then you definitely need better dozo counterplay

[torn lance]

who counters dozo well?

[knotty sundial]

raging bolt is the first thing that comes to mind but other strong special attackers in general

psychic noise on primarina is generally more useful than something like hyper voice

for wallbreaking potential

[torn lance]

gotcha ill start running that

should i change the ability too on primarina?

[knotty sundial]

if you're not gonna run surf then keep liquid voice

torrent isn't worth it to just boost flip turn

[torn lance]

Its kind of the same move if I run liquid voice

cuz they both have 90 base

[knotty sundial]

liquid voice will boost psychic noise

[torn lance]

oh shoot ok

ok Im running flip turn, psy noise, moonblast, and ice beam on prim

how does that look?

made some updates to a hazard stack team i had made. it still needs work (im p new to OU) and i do wish i could run multiple hazards on one of the pokemon to get a bulkier/utility-based slot. any tips?

[regal ginkgo]

New [Gen 9] OU RMT @nocturne sable, @final relic, @north nimbus, @tacit bluff, @inner terrace, @alpine hornet, @magic dome. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.

[knotty sundial]

not too sure about protect on hamu

you could run actual water stab, priority with aqua jet or sucker punch, or knock off, you miss out on good utility there

for hazard stack prolly knock off

[split hamlet]

yeah i was trying to find a last slot and to help with zama

everything else good tho?

[worn lark]

lando-t isn't ideal on balance

it's a better pick on more offensive teams

tusk is probably the better option here

and sub prim ususally wants draining kiss

if you want to stick with moonblast tho then make her psynoise + liquid voice instead of surf

[queen saddle]

this is pretty mediocre ngl, tspikes Glis is wack and Samu is used on offensive hazard stack

not this

Glis set is wack too

use utility Glis and rocks Garg

Specs Pult

AV Tusk lwk sucks

Just use 4 attacks

with spin

probably another bulky pivot over Samu

actually

Run raging bolt over Gambit and use Ghold

[split hamlet]

so is the darkrai fine too then?

because isn't that an offense mon too

i was just looking for a fast and strong check to the stuff i cant hit with breloom

[worn lark]

choice holders are usually ballance / bulky offense mons

seed bomb >>>>>> bullet seed on breloom

[split hamlet]

kept the krai, switched to great tusk and changed primarina for pech

[split hamlet]

bullet seed does 5 less power and if it gets an extra hit its better

im experimenting with scarf ghold and dragapult in the darkrai slot too

[worn lark]

you do not have loaded dice

[split hamlet]

is it not a guranteed two hit?

[worn lark]

well

yes but the problem is

it's not nearly as consistent

[knotty sundial]

it only does 5 less power if you hit 3 times

[worn lark]

you could hit from anywhere from 50 to 125 power

[worn lark]

isn't 3 the avg tho

[knotty sundial]

it's not even odds

35% chance to hit 2 or 3 times, 15% chance to hit 4 or 5 times

[worn lark]

actually

yeah

avg base power 77.5 according to bulbapedia

could be worth it

[split hamlet]

yeah thats what i mean

[knotty sundial]

expected value of 3.1 hits

benefit of breaking substitutes, sashes as well

[split hamlet]

if im correct 37.5 with technician boost for its base power so a two hit is 75

[knotty sundial]

oh this is on a technician mon?? yeah 100% bullet seed

[split hamlet]

yeah i knew i wasnt tweakin

[worn lark]

does

[knotty sundial]

it boosts each hit

[worn lark]

doesn't technitian not boost multihit moveS?

oh wait that's tera

yeah no absolutely bullet seed mb

[split hamlet]

https://pokepast.es/8860b6628ab78e76

this the updated team

[young gust]

tysm

u helped helal

i js have one quesitn tho

how would specs val break how it hit corv or a bliss w tera steel or a spdef tera steel pex

[knotty sundial]

well, one way is to use trick on them

if a defensive pokemon gets a choice item it cripples them a lot

[queen saddle]

It can hit corvi with thunderbolt along with pex

and for the tera guys

trick like ascension said or try relying on hazards/teammates

[queen saddle]

If you wanna slot in that ofc

But also psyshock hits Bliss and Pex real hard so you might want to try surprising them with that

if they always switch into moonblast

and honestly you can pretty much pressure corvi with a tera fairy specs Moonblast

so it should be fine

[queen saddle]

I dont like nasty plot pech here

and tusk should be boots

other than that looks fine

[young gust]

oh alr ty

[nocturne sable]

Why do you need both unaware clef and clodsire, just make clefable magic guard to have an additional knock off absorber

Also run cm flamethrower over cm thunder wave to actually make progress

Actually I didn’t peep that you don’t even have a stealth rock setter.

So it’s either you make clodsire standard rocks toxic recover eq & clefable cm flamethrower

Or you keep amnesia clodsire and run stealth rocks Twave clef

[nocturne sable]

Random choice band pult on HO, not optimal.

You can drop it here for something like iron moth since you’re threat stacking here. that way you actually have a fairy resist somewhat for mons like enamorus for example.

Outside of that, seems like fairly standard ho

Also consider Tera fire gambit to improve fairy & moltres mu

[chilly breach]

Cool

I may do just that

[nocturne sable]

You can also try max speed low kick jolly gambit with Tera fighting if you feel like you’re struggling with opposing gambits

[nocturne sable]

This is salvageable but you’re using sets that don’t fit HO.

Boots tusk with rocks fits on balance, Bo teams. Same with knock u-turn wogerpon.

Specs pult is mainly for offense/BO teams.

Np Ghold and cm bolt are standard, but imo your team is kinda slow which makes it inefficient.

https://pokepast.es/1aab28c89453015f maybe make it something like this

Or this https://pokepast.es/3996f24157843659

[sly viper]

Hi guys, im new in the game. This is the first team i created, any feedback and changes are appreciated. https://pokepast.es/4cafa717d6131a72

[jade cedar]

I feel like your defensive core gets owned by kyu

[sly viper]

Kyurem? What changes do you suggest?

[jade cedar]

I mean to be honest it's playable but I would be really careful and it would for you to tera lot, the team also feels a tad slow but maybe it's just me

[sly viper]

Ok, thanks for your reply

[winter maple]

I feel this team has a lack of priority though

The only priority user is sucker punch Sam

[winter maple]

Also these two sets are identical

[nocturne sable]

Wait which team are you talking about

[knotty sundial]

you also have thunderclap

on raging bolt

[winter maple]

The edited version I mean

[knotty sundial]

oh I see, I mean yeah but you also have speed control with deo-s and maybe rapid spin great tusk

[nocturne sable]

The first one or the second one

Second one with deoxys you have 4 mons that can boost speed so should be fine

[winter maple]

Both of the versions you sent me were the same

[knotty sundial]

they're different

[knotty sundial]

ah shoot sorry for the ping didn't realize it would do that

https://pokepast.es/3996f24157843659

but these are the two different options they gave

[swift pumice]

I'll post when I've got more practice with the team + maybe some tweaks, but I was so sick of stall and finally decided sash ceruledge wasn't working for me. Welcome to the team, booster speed iron crown and mixed kyurem. I'll never be stalled again

Changed Tusk up a bit, but it feels weird. Rapid spin has to stay, headlong rush and knock off definitely feel right, but the choice between rocks or ice spinner never feels easy

[winter maple]

I think this other one will be more my speed

I tested out the other one and I've definitely felt vulnerable at times without tera flying on Gholdengo or Raging Bolt in my corner

[simple perch]

https://pokepast.es/3737f7ae738bccd1

i feel like i need better removal and its weak to gambit but idk how to fix it without breaking something else

[split hamlet]

https://pokepast.es/3a8d19ae05cddeda

is this too niche

[tame laurel]

https://pokepast.es/cb0277a62424d14a guys is this hazard stack team worthy of respect'

or is it buns

FROSMOTH GOING TO UBERS

this evil set lets u get +6 on a lot of mons its so funny

[final relic]

ok theres like

a bunch of problems here

this is like fat balance sorta

but you have only 1 remover that doesnt remove vs ghold whatsoever

[ebon juniper]

https://psim.us/t/1563406

[regal ginkgo]

Hey @ebon juniper, it looks like you're trying to share a gen9monotype team, but I didn't find any raters for that format in this channel. Try posting in #1059658237097545758 instead.

[queen saddle]

why does this say gen 9 monotype

[ebon juniper]

idk?

i didnt notice that mb

[queen saddle]

Also Mola should be AV

you have no spdef guy

[ebon juniper]

AV?

[queen saddle]

other than that seems standard and fine

[queen saddle]

Assault vest

[knotty sundial]

corv should run pressure

not mirror armor

[queen saddle]

didnt see that

what he said

[ebon juniper]

k thx

[queen saddle]

also

veil is banned in OU

so run rough skin

[knotty sundial]

yeah

was boutta say

did you try verifying this team for sv ou? it should've told you that

[queen saddle]

consider scarf Rai too

lorb is good but scarf for speed control since no Exca

t dragon corvi for Woger
