@gaunt swallow yes
Get a sylveon with DK and calm mind and Moonblast or a Magearna with the same set
uwu
@hardy basin hey
Do u need anything
@gaunt swallow abt ur team building. Fortunately Pokémon soesnt require physical skills so anyone can always pick it up.
no sorry my little brother was on here sorry
I can help you a lot to ger into comp pokemon if u wanna dm me
Cool. What do you already know? Do you have any experience?
what up
im pretty busy doing rayquaza raids atm so excuse unavailability
I want to beat the living f### out of a rayquaza
Please excuse my swearing, I am only 11. 😄
Link?
Can u help me faid?
Raid?*
Ty
So
Hey looking for advice on starting at vgc if anyone has experience. I understand basic stuff like evs and ivs mostly just have questions about genning for vgc play and a few other things! Thanks
Your better off looking at channels dedicated to it like wolfyvgc
In vgc genning is illegal if that's the question
Yes thanks was just wondering lmao i had a feeling it wasnt allowed
@ornate bronzewolfeys content on youtube is more entertainment than educational
His patreon is educational if u want that.
Id recommend just looking at CybertronVGC is you want a source for some teams with an explaination.
His tournment videos literally are him over plays and thought processes
Like yea patron has more of it but its not like his vids are only for entertainment
@idle cedar
Genning is illegal in Regional tournaments, Locals and tournamtens in a range above that.
Genned pokemon are totally fine in ladder and I would guess also in some locals as they dont hack check often(do on your own choice)
not really. no. He just comments on what happened he doesnt explain his thoughts in the YT videos
I mean its not every single play yea but most of it has a explanation but to each there own i guess
Mr Link
Teacher
@glass nebula
Do you remember the build I made like 2 days ago
yes you havent send it to me yet
big
I’ll put it in here for ppl to give me things I could improve on in here teacher
sure sure
Btw
How do I show it
Do I ss it and then put the ss in here
Or
Idk
Can you tell me sir?
SIRR
@gaunt swallowon showdown on the team page go to the bottom
you can click "paste to pokepaste"
and send the website link
Untitled 7
https://pokepast.es/16776c1812efb180 so that is the team, and guys please tell me how to improve it
@gaunt swallowhttps://pokepast.es/cacf6c345cee7054
i fixed up some of the mons since you were running suboptimal stuff.
Raich-K is just better than Alolan since it actually gets an ability.
Weak Armor Swords dance Ceruledge is unique and can work
thats this teams offensive coverage. Its lacking
Defensive coverage is pretty good.
I feel you should include a fake out mon with Rillaboom over Meowscarada
and Sneasler over Raichu for coverage and damage
https://pokepast.es/76db1a5f234eb583 @gaunt swallow this would be my final suggestion since I dont want too stray too far from the mons you had originally
if you want to fully embrace a dual core you would slot in kingambit over sneasler but I think since you dont have redirection or speed control you should just stick to faster or bulky mons.
Also I would replace Poison Touch with Unburden to combat said lack of speed control. Thats a mistake on my part.
Anyone wanna battle?
eternal_d4rkness is now level 4.
Accidentally made the biggest play of the century
What game
Pokémon scarlet and violet
zamzthedoglover is now level 5.
@eager palm
Oof. Sorry no can do I only do sword and shield
1234_84935 is now level 1.
I’d be down if you still are
ill battle anyone if they are down to (scarlet and violet)
Still available?
allways
just in a raid tho
just done with the raid
@west quest i can battle now
tyrannoreximus is now level 2.
Are we allowing legendaries or nah?
sure
Doubles or singles?
I'm not really a singles player, sorry
doubles i dont mind
Ok send the code when your ready
Yh
what rules should i pick
Just do the default ones, 4v4 doubles
i need to do something in my party
Alr
im going to quit then join back
That's fine
im ready again
Same code?
Gg
arcaninelowkeysoloslucario_14256 is now level 2.
Anyone down to battle only scarlet and violet
Can someone give me tips for a teammate of Meowscarada please?
Yeah can I battle you?
tchan20 is now level 1.
I need help with this team I’m not a good team builder but my initial thought process was just cover everyone’s weaknesses but I don’t think I have good synergy I just got this hoopa though and I really wanna use it so as long as hoopa is included I’m fine with any suggestions
dvrk_xen_12673 is now level 1.
anyone down for a battle?
For which format?
Doubles
Doubles
You could combine landorus EQ with some other flying type
Which one would you suggest and who do I take off my team
Actually, i think a Thundurus / Landorus team might be funny: you could have a lot of fun combining EQ and Choicespecs Thundurus with Discharge
jurre_dvries is now level 5.
That sounds awesome I think I can do that
Can someone help me to make a team with Meowscarada, I'm a bad team builder and I'm initial in VGC
anyone down for a battle or need any help team buildin?
Me
I want a tip for a teammate for a Meowscarada
Could you helkp me fill a missing spot on my team?
Show me the team
And I’ll try think about it
Rn just send the team you have now
Try get a fire mon
I’d recommend having grass water and fire types on your team
They compliment each other
yeah but which fire mon tahts the problemo
it gets shut down by pelliper rain
and i dont really want ogerpon hearthflame cuz i have support already, and the types fire hits for super effective arent really a threat to my team
and not incin cuz my own psychic terain shuts down fake out support
n1hyppoe is now level 2.
I don't have a team in my head, I only know I will use a meowscarada
oh wait nvm cuz if incin comes in defiant on gapdos activates and i deal soooo much dmg
Well try get some water fire grass type mons first
For water I suggest cramorant
Really underrated
Why?
Gulp missile is really funny
Plus when crams hp goes under half
It spits out a pickachu, which paras
iceking
if you want a good fire water grass core
incin, meowscarada and urshifu rapid is a safe one
or even better if you wanna drop meow then add rillaboom
incin, rilla, and rapid strike is a really op core
and if yuou have enough offense you could drop rilla for ammongus
But have you a idea to how I can use cramorant?
Focus sash cause cram is really frail to eletric
Or you run Tera ground
Ok
Can you explain me the ability of Cramorant please?
@fresh swallow cramorants ability is, when cramorant uses surf OR dive, it either gets a fish or a pikachu depending on crams hp
above 50%, cram gets the fish
below 50% he gets a pikachu
when the cramorant gets hit, it spits out the fish or pikachu
the fish defense drops the attacker
the pikachu paras
they both deal damage
i think 25%
Ok
I just made rental team for reg g, snow team built around kyurem, dm me if you want some more info abt it
klawf is frfr the goat
Watch a replay of a Pokémon battle between Hyppoe and abselgar! Format: [Gen 9] Random Battle; Date: Jan 6, 2025
Can you help me with my team
What is frfr?
for real
For real
Ok
I think I understood
Is there anything you need more info on it?
I think I can use Chi Yu as fire tipe
Why?
Surf hits all the mons of field
So if your other mon has storm drain
It gets a special attack boost from surf
Lumineon can be a good option
It has tailwind too and good support movies
So the team is Meowscarada, Chi Yu, Cramorant and Lumineon
Thanks to the help
Yes
sorry to say alot of those mons arent that good
the only one really is chi-yu
and reg g has a ise of a restricted mon
use*
Is it the legendaries?
yes
like calarex-shadow literally sweeps your whole team and you wont even have a chance to take a turn cause of how fast it is
But I didn't putted a restricted yet
you have 4 out of 6
which have to counter basically every restricted or majority of them
and 3 out of those 4 are like D tier mons
Ok
I have a strategy of Miraidon +Great Tusk
they have no synergy together
Miraidon use parabolic charge and great tusk it's imune
just use discharge like a regional champion did lol
The ability can be used with booster energy
or the guy that won worlds
But why meowscarada is bad?
weak
fragile
and way better grass types
https://youtu.be/M-tQC1AFomU?t=29283 probably should watch some actual tournment play IMO
The world's greatest Trainers face off today in a clash of epic proportions! Who will rise above the rest and claim the title of Pokémon VG, TCG, GO, and UNITE 2024 World Champions? Tune in to find out!

#playpokemon
i put a timestamp for the last game since you were talking about miradon
Ok, thanks
baxcarchomp is now level 6.
Like rillaboom?
yes
Have you other example?
of what
And why meowscarada was so used in the past?
Good grass type
it was used cause it was region dex format with no paradox pokemon
only paladea pokemon was allowed outside of paradox and box pokemon
and was pre DLC
so it was used cause there wasnt alot of good options lol
Like Murkrow?
yes
But what is other good pokémon of grass type?
It's true
Ok
Maybe I try use rillaboom or whimsicott
But I think I will use Rillaboom
@ornate bronze do you think see tournaments can help me to do a team better?
🤷 everyone is different
Personally, I think is a good idea for me
This is my team now
I need a steel type to counter some weakness
Any suggestion?
Please someone help me I need a team badly I’m really just a collector but I’m trying to get more into battling this rain team has been working really well but I think I need something different
If you want a rain team, you can use a Kyogre or Pelliper side a Archaludon
Or use a Rain Dish Blastoise with Leftovers
I did this and it's very good
The bad side of my strategy was the EV's, but you can do this
Talk to me if you want to know about movies or another thing
My current team is kyogre archaludon landorus thunderus primerina and urshifu
Or a Blastoise or Ludicolo with rain dish
But I think Blastoise is better
You can change Thundurus or Landorus for a Tornadus encarnate, because it's can use Tailwind
Does anybody want to do a multi battle
Can someone give me a suggestion of a steel type pokémon for my team?
Melmetal
But miticals aren't permited
Tinkaton
Its steel type makes it immune to its Weakness Which is Poison Type
And plus Steel type moves are Neutral
Are you talking to me use registeel?
A steel type I’ve seen used a lot in competitive battles is kingampit with a dark Tera type to boost his sucker punch and signature move
I don’t think registeel is that good mainly cause of his moveset if he got gyro ball he’d be Alr but he don’t
What is Alr
Thanks for the tip
Yeah I got you
Maybe I can use a trick room pokèmon
I can help you more with a trick room team than I can with steel types
Registeel he’s alright but not that good
Can you give me some tips?
Please
Yeah of course
I tried to do a trick room team before
Your main team member is gonna be indeedee she’s gonna have a focus sash and the move follow me
I saw that Indeedee is very good in this team
Next farigiraf it’s main job will be to set up trick room next to indeedee
Yes it’ll help you a lot
Next hatterene it’s a back up trick room setter and it’s fair typing will help out with coverage and spread moves cause it gets dazzling gleam
I saw that was a time that Cresselia was good too
A guy used Gallade in a tournament
baxcarchomp is now level 7.
You think is a good option?
Yeah cresselia is still pretty good although I think it’s pure psychic typing is kinda bad because so many people run u-turn in the Pokemon
Yeah, it's true
Why everyone use female indeedee?
What is coverage and spread movies?
Yeah but for gallade to be slow enough you have to take away all of its speed stats and give it a minus speed nature
Ok
It’s slower and bulkier than male indeedee and male indeedee is faster witch isn’t good for this team
Ok
Coverage is how many types you can beat and how many you resist or be immune too while spread moves are moves that hit both opposing Pokemon in double battles
Ok, but can you give me a example of a coverage move?
And the attackers can be Armarouge and Kingambit
Dazzling gleam astral barrage and make it rain
Ok
Yes that’s very good 👍
Amoonguss can go to the team too?
It's very slow and a good support
And Brute Bonnet is good ?
I saw a strategy of Blastoise with rain in trick room
What you think?
Or a Ursaluna to close the team
Hmmm there all pretty good but overall I think you go with brute bonnet it has similar moves to amoongus but it’s tankier you can make it slower and I think you can you can do really well with it the problem I have with blastoise is that he’s the only one benefitting from the rain and you have a really high chance to be benefitting the other sides team
Ursaluna blood moon is amazing but normal ursaluna is not that good if you have ursaluna blood moon though definitely use that
My bad coverage moves don’t exist I was thinking spread moves coverage I believe only works with types or in certain situations some moves could be considered coverage
So is better I use blood moon ursaluna or brute bonnet
Yes I think so but I think the best way to find out is through trial and error experiment with both find which one you like more
Hey how’s the team coming along
Hey yall how are you guys doing
siphlux is now level 1.
I'm doing the sets now
But I don't know who will be the 6⁰ member
I'll test this
What is yalls?
Agree 100%
Trial and error is the best way to succeed
I'll use a blood moon ursaluna in my 1⁰ test
Ok that sounds good
Is a good way I only invest EV'S in the defenses and HP of the supports?
Yeah maybe just defenses tho some are good with hp ev’s like cresselia but a lot don’t need it
dvrk_xen_12673 is now level 6.
My team is practically complet
I just need to do the Kingambit
Ok one more time run me through your team held items stats movesets and all
I used a set in Hatterene to do it's resistent and a good attacher
Ok moveset?
I take a photo and show you
Alright that works
Trick room, expanding force, dazzling gleam and protect
Best moveset
If you send that out first send it with indeedee so your expanding force will work properly
Have you been battling
Sweet I hope it all works out for you and also this streamer Ik on TikTok is hosting a tournament next Saturday I can give show you his account and whoever wins the tournament gets 10 Pokemon he has everything in the game if you need or want anything
What made you go with Defient instead of supreme overlord?
Analysis of pikalytics
Oh alright than I hope you win and your team works out
What do you want to talk with " gets 10 pokèmon"?
Can you send me the account of this tiktoker?
He will trade you any ten mons that you want
Yeah sure he goes live around 6:30 or 7 eastern time that’s when he trades normally you can ask him a bunch of stuff or whatever
Ok, thanks
His videos are just live raid recaps but you wanna focus on when he goes live that’s when everything happens
No problem also he has every Pokemon in scarlet and violet not every single Pokemon throughout all the games like zeraora Marshadow and all the ultrabeats aren’t obtainable in sv so don’t ask for those
Ok, but can I ask shiny?
Of course every Pokemon he has is shiny unless the Pokemon is shiny locked
I'll do the results after 10 battles
Alright let me know how it goes
The tournament is in showdown or Scarlet and Violet?
Scarlet and violet
But my team is in pokèmon showdown and all pokèmon is shiny
So you can use this time during his streams to get the Pokemon you need but you can only get three at a time unless you send him a galaxy or a baby dragon the baby dragon will open up a list for people to get traded and it will give you 20 Pokemon the galaxy will give 10 Pokemon however both of those cost money and I’m not to sure if your willing to do that
The only Pokemon on your team that won’t be shiny is blood moon Ursaluna because it’s shiny locked in the mainline games
Yes
I didn't inderstand what you want to talk
What do you mean?
I didn't understand the message that you sent
What part so I can explain better
What is this galaxy and baby dragon of the message
And why I can take only three of my shiny pokémon at a time?
Because that’s all he give to each person
@potent island I played 10 rouns and won 5
Ok
There like donations to him and they cost money
But I'll do shiny hunt myself
Ok that’s a 50% win rate are you comfortable with the team?
This donations give pokémon for me?
Yeah, but I'll see other option
Yeah if you send him one of those 2 things he’ll give you Pokemon otherwise you’ll have to wait a bit
I'm suffering a lot against Kyogre
But if cost money, I don't want
So amoongus might be the way to go here
Then you just gotta be patient I’ve gotten a lot of Pokemon from him and I’ve never spent money doing it
Ok
baxcarchomp is now level 8.
I'll play more rounds
I can give you a shiny kingambit and when the streamers not doing trades he does shiny raids so I’ll ask if we can do a amoruge raid
Alright then have fun
Thanks, I talk for you my progress in the shiny hunt and in the training
Alrighty 👍 lmk how everything goes
Brotha wottttt
I cant believe i thought running max defense on chansey was a bad idea lol
It needs it
Can someone help me with team building I wanna use enamorus not to sure how good it is but I wanna try it out
Does anyone know how to help frail pokemon
I’ve put a focus sash on my raikou because it’s so physically frail
how do you get event pokmemon
Imagine they had a new item where draining moves used against the holder didn’t drain the hp
I like how this person online was playing so slowly waiting forever to pick a move because they thought they were winning by a mile and then I one shot their dragonite with a stone edge and they immediately pick something random to go into
Being slow doesn’t make you look smart lol don’t know what they were analyzing but it apparently wasn’t helping
Anyone else up for Pvp right now?
Getting ready for the official competition for masters division. I uh. Locked in my team already not realizing I wouldn’t be able to use them. They’re all in pokejail now.
ooof rip
Team looks good though
Ninetails make me wanna die
🐉 💀
Here’s a better look
aeiou2763 is now level 1.
Are you using Vivillon for sleep powder?
Well, ig there's a lot of settup there
Why no twisted spoon
It's better, trust
Actually both boost by 20 percent so it doesn’t really matter
is this for GC?
cause that team looks all over the place
Like the natures are just bad...same for most movesets. why Eviolite Brionne?
For the meeeeemeeeesssss
So many things dont make sense. There are so many better options for everything on that team
dose anyone want to battel
Incineroar is a good support mon
baconbird2.0 is now level 1.
is this good for a rain team?
Obsessed with these names
eiradraws is now level 1.
nah
u have sandstorm fighting with ur rain
U are missing a restricted if u are planing on playing cartridge doubles
Dumb bird is pretty bad of a pokemon
should my greninja be a special or physical attacker
I like to run a scizor that has metal coat, steel tera and just spam bullet punch
it is a very good counter against Flutter mane but my friends say it's a dumb idea since I should use tera to help my other mons not have weaknesses
I also updated my team
Pelipper for rain and air attacks and tailwind
Among us for healing and rage spore
Iron Hands for fake out
Scizor for aggressive offense
Kingdra for counter against fire, grass and dragon (it has swift swim so it's super fast)
and ogerpon for general rock and grass coverage
is the loaded dice item good for maushold?
Bro why the stupid names?
My day uncle is crazy 😭🙏
Plates look better
Aw😔
Dumbass bird? That’s toilet bird 😭
Also archaludon Apperently works well with rain
Electro shot is a one turn move instead of two in the rain
is loaded dice good for maushold?
ok
Yea ik
Why Brionne instead of Primarina?
Just curious
Not hating on the team
i think its because of eviolite and since brionne's special attack is at 91 already which is already pretty good then with eviolite its defenses go up by 1.5
with the eviolite brionne has higher defense than primarina but 10 less points in speed and im pretty sure 20 less in health
Me tweaking because Iron hands missed fake out in a single match for the third time despite it being a 100% accurate move
Ah ok
is staraptor any good in doubles?
No
Any builds recommendations for my team, my ceruledge is already built btw
ac_art1 is now level 1.
Also does furret speed or HP matter more when it comes to battling with them?
I would say speed, since well, Furret gets tidy up now, which is basically dragon dance, so you can try and build it as a setup sweeper based around that. Tera ghost if you want to bait a fighting attack to get a free tidy up off, or tera fighting/tera ground if you want to super effectively hit steel and rock types that would normally resist its normal type attacks. I suggest tera ground over tera fighting because it can also hit ghosts.
I’m thinking of a baton pass team where u baton pass to shuckle, what do u guys think? (Also trick room ofc)
kat_artist is now level 4.
the shuckle has rollout, power trick, substitute and iron defense
Iron defense prob should be switched out since when doing power trick u wont have any defense and u can prob move first with trick room
I just couldn’t think of a better one
Also driftblim is just for evasion baton pass its just made to last
Oh wait replace iron defense with defense curl
#union-circles yup wrong channel
What do u guys think is the best way to utilize driftblim’s minimize baton pass and is there an easy counter to it besides sacred sword and those 100% accurate moves
new season
Thanks to everyone for the tips on furret
Although I think I have a decent build now, at least one I think is decent
@dry marlin slam moves like Heat Crash and Heavy Slam deal double to targets that are minimized and cant miss
For VGC, no horrendous.
For Smogon singles workable with like superpower contrary stuff. How viable it is kinda depends on the format within smogon tiers themselves
@dry marlin bad in game but ok for low smogon tiers. Shuckle has no attack stat so multipling that doesnt do much
Sash into a strong moody mon
I wrote power trick
Thats a whole turn gone and turning u into priority fodder
U can make it work but its purely a gimmick and the team will mostly revilve arnd shuckpe

It’s stats are pretty bad besides speed
And it’s hidden ability is not good too, it doubles speed when losing its items
Which he alr has good stat
Well I made it useable
Can I see ur build?
If you’re gonna copy my set, make sure to use a Pokémon that has psychic surge
Indeedee or tapu lele
Well tbh I did steal this set but it’s still good
I don’t rlly do competitive but thanks for letting me know
I usually use indeedee f and armorouge when using psychic terrain
Yeah indeedee f is more defensive than the male
whats the best tera type for armarouge
i was thinking of running grass tera for flash fire bait, but i wanna make sure theres not a better option
Which is best tera for dragonair in singles?🤔
spikycrow99 is now level 1.

70 speed so it’ll go faster than the average tailwind/basic team in tr
but it’s a niche pick, lots of weaknesses and has to have good synergy with the rest of the team
Dipplin is good. Eviolite makes it bulky and it learns Nasty Plot via TM so it can be dangerous if given the chance.
Prob best to not use these. Munkidori is Fast and the other two have decent speeds.
Ok, thanks
Understood
Do you have a tip of moveset or another think for diplin?
My team is Ursaluna Blood moon, Kingambit, Faragiraf, Armarouge, Indeedee and Hatterene
Which should I remove for put Diplin
should i run tera water or stellar on urshifu rapid
Hey guys, I have a basic idea of how competitive Pokémon works. Is this team any good?
gamer_gourd is now level 1.
It's a team without meta pokémon, except Clefable, but I'm curious about the strategy behind this team
Pawmot to counter miraidon
Glimmora to set poison spikes
Clefable to tank damage
Poreygon-Z as a special attacker
Meowstic to set up reflect and light screen
And Blaziken as a physical attacker
Interesting
I kinda fw it
My team is Ursaluna Blood moon, Kingambit, Faragiraf, Armarouge, Indeedee and Hatterene
Which should I substitute for Diplin?
Hey, guys
I’m trying to base a team around Naganadel and what I have so far is:
Espeon for dual screen setup
Skarmory as a trap setter and phazer
Pangoro to check psychic types
Xerneas to check other dragon-types that Naganadel can’t handle itself without boosts
Entei to check Ice and Steel-types
and Naganadel as my main sweeper
Is this setup any good? This is for Gen 7, which I know is weird but I’ve always been more receptive to USUM’s battle system.
im doing singles with dragapult cursed body, urshifu with life orb and kyogre with nada can i get some help i got no clue what to do
Bro had no idea what he was expecting.

Id say yes it could be used in trick room if your opponent has a really fast team but not usually you're better off using rock polish to boost your speed or having a tailwind setter beside it
Ok
Grill issue

How did I win this?
Why he using doubles team on singles 😭
Oh cause of the urshifu and incineroar
Yeah I have no idea💀
Do someone know if is it a good idea to substitute my farigiraf for a Abomasnow in a trick room team
And an Iron Hands in the place of a Kingambit
i say to keep the farigaraf, and use iron hands
yeah farigaraf and iron hands
im doubling down on that lol
Ok, thanks
Abomasnow can't set trick room so you'd need farigaraf and with supreme overlord kingambit is a better cleaner than iron hands
Anyone wanna battle

Ok
The best one for trick room is calyrex ice rider. Second best is Dusk mane necrozma next would be dawn wings all of them can set trick room
Ok, thanks
Maybe I use necrozma dusk mane, because the types are good

i literally cannot win a single unranked battle, is it just a skill issue or am i picking terrible pokemon?
What's your team looking like?
Can I see your team?
I would say no
How about alolan nine tails?
Shell smash minior can be funny
Now that I could build a team around
guys i wanna be good in competitive but idk how sooo how
but i want a fun team like a funny one i can use to beat opponents
also any youtubers i can use as a refrence
I usually watch "Haydunn", "WolfyVGC" and "SkrawVCG" they're pretty good tbh
Wolfy is very competitive and has good explanations
Haydunn uses underrated pokemon or using them how they're not intended (like special feraligatr or sweeper volbeat)
skrawVCG I think just explains certain competitive terms
I also like pokesports and qthecostarican he's funny
And splash plate but he mostly does single battles
Just weavile is good too
yeah i was looking for more of a doubles format
boomcan. is now level 2.
bitte
trying to get an iron hands
for a competitive min speed
the gengar is not working
I have an iron hands if you want
no ots alright but thanks
What's your set? I can make you a pk file to use
it worked in the end but thank you anyways
ultraclaw7 is now level 1.
Hey I haven’t played competitive since early swsh and just getting back into it. I know Pokemon like incineroar are still op and I know fluttermane is good but what are some other top tier mons? I want to build a team surrounding salamence
Are you doing REG I?
wait is that the recent regulation-
I’m not sure but whatever the more recent one is. I have a team right now I’m having ok luck with but needs fine tuning
bronze8746 is now level 1.
I think it's REG I rn so 2 restricted legends
I believe so?
I had urshifu water but it was doing kinda bad for me so I swapped it for sneasler and it seems to be doing better
Just checked, yep it's I
Metronome transform Mew?
anyone wanna battle
When?
guys, is it cheating if I use a bot to get an exact replica of a pokemon I already have? I don't have any access to pokemon home or anything like that so I'm not sure how I can transfer my pokemon game-to-game.
Yes
alrr thanks
So funny when people just close connection when they lose so we dont get the win screens lol
