Dragon is great typing

gentle delta
#

Id also argue the SE hits on Fairy Ground are way more relevant

molten oasis
#

I retract my dragon stab sucks lol

gentle delta
#

like Dark, Fighting

heady onyx
#

4 resistances, 3 weaknesses

gentle delta
#

sure but I thought we were just talking in a vacuum tbh

molten oasis
#

I’m clearly dumb lol

heady onyx
#

only 2 resistnances offensively

molten oasis
#

Fairy hurts dragon a lot

#

And uh, fluttermane exists

#

Xerneas and Zacian will eventually exists again

lofty tartan
#

I think people get confused by what "offensive typing" really means 🤔

molten oasis
#

I’m dumb, what does it mean?

heady onyx
#

Yeah like Ice is an offensive typing

#

sucks defensively but godlike offensive

molten oasis
#

Chien pao is so good for a reason, I think fighting ice and dark isn’t resisted by anything

lofty tartan
#

It's debating how good a typing is offensively into things, rather than their own weaknesses vs things being offensive toward them

mighty stump
molten oasis
#

Friend of mine lost first place to RNGsus

mighty stump
#

Like if you had exclusively two offensive slots

#

Ice/Ground
Distribution of Fairy si also few in between with Ground

#

That does however give me an idea

heady onyx
#

what about Ice Electric

#

the boltbeam thingy

#

Yay a way to remove ogerpon? Love it

gentle delta
#

I feel ashamed to be asking but do any of y'all have a Dozo spread

charred saddle
#

kekwhands

but no i dont think i have it

charred saddle
#

i think i saw one before lemme see

molten oasis
#

My boxes are clean

#

Of dozo

gentle delta
mighty stump
#

Solo?

gentle delta
#

oh commander

mighty stump
#

So solo

#

Commander

gentle delta
#

trying the Tommy special

mighty stump
#

Just a general one?

gentle delta
#

2-2-2 SunRoomDozo

mighty stump
#

Right

gentle delta
#

yeah just a splashable dozo that you can fit on a 2-2-2

mighty stump
#

Would you prefer offensive or non cause I like mine fat

gentle delta
#

it is lefties protect order up

#

so I guess fat offensive

#

we prob dont need as much speed

#

so it can like come out solo under tr and maybe get a hit before we get out tatsu

mighty stump
#

Well if we dont need speed then

gentle delta
mighty stump
#

Cause I always like my Dozos to always outspeed Chi Yu

#

at +2

gentle delta
#

yeah I think 84 is a fine number

mighty stump
#

if thats nothing to be concerned about I wouldnt run speed at all

#

Sure

gentle delta
#

or none too

I dont think fighting is the coverage you want if going for coverage, and if you insist on fighting I think aura sphere is better

mighty stump

Just a bump

#

No speed

gentle delta

I think oblivious is the play tbh

mighty stump
#

Took it all duimped it into HP

#

Oblivious is fine

gentle delta

or

#

cooking but water veil

mighty stump
#

:c

gentle delta
#

brb eating but imma think on this during

mighty stump
#

Irregardless

#

SPeed or not

#

Just be aware of which dozo youre running

#

So like

#

Thats the more important thing

#

Less about the Dozo

#

More about the wincon

charred saddle
#

the people who joined that tour can only use that 6 mon?

mighty stump
#

No

#

Prog is running a 2-2-2 team

charred saddle
#

oh that is prog's team

molten oasis

#

no that is Tom Haydens that im copying with changes

@gentle delta just watched your video about dragalge in ladder. Great video, really liked the explanations.

gentle delta
#

Thank you that means a lot

#

Im just getting started but itll be all trick room content

cyan smelt
#

how'd you get dragalge to work haha

molten oasis
#

He’s tr god

#

He can make any tr mon work

deep sparrow
#

Really solid start so far honestly! Keep with it. With me being new to the vgc side, really helps me understand more about trick room and what you can do with it/against it. If that makes sense Lol.

gentle delta
#

Thats the plan!

To quote my man gandalf

deep sparrow
# cyan smelt i'm not improving.

Gotta take some Ls before taking Ws. Just make sure to do your best and learn from the losses. Im extra asf, but I have a notebook that I write my starting 4, their starting 4. And little notes about what I did that helped,hurt, did nothing. And if I lost just a note about why I thought I lost.

mighty stump
#

Someone already did the work for you, just use the template

#

A lot of useful data

heady onyx
#

it tracks your stats on showdown nice

#

Ima steal that if you don't mind

deep sparrow
gentle cragBOT
gentle delta
#

Realized I had no chance of KOing with Earth Power, thats why we have Fissure

cyan smelt
#

Love it when ohko moves come off

gentle delta
# cyan smelt Love it when ohko moves come off

I don't recommend relying them in a significant capacity, but Torkoal is a mon that only needs 3 functional moves. You don't often enough click Protect unless you're running Liligant, so you can justify playing around with the fourth slot. Most go for Overheat, Solarbeam, or Clear Smog. And all are quite situational. I prefer Helping Hand or Fissure to help you get out of tight jams. Fissue overall gives you the highest risk reward factor so i only click it in a situation where not clicking it would have the same result as it missing. Like the game I linked.

deep sparrow
#

I thought about messing around with TR Torkoal. Just haven’t looked for a rental yet. TR is getting popular in cart ladder. Most of the teams i saw today running TR

gentle delta
#

torkoal is very good

deep sparrow
#

I went against like 4 people back to back running armarouge and Indeedee.

mellow barn
#

Testing my new team in casual, for some reason it doesn't feel right

mellow barn
gentle delta
#

anything on your team except for maybe heatran leads well with Moon depending on the circumstances lol

#

Hands and Oger let you get up Tailwind the safest though i think

mellow barn
#

Yeah and I sometimes think if they lead with tornadus I should just kill it as soon as I see it.

pale wraith
#

Agree with DrayageDrago. Grimmsnarl has been nuts with it. Put up screens while you set up with nasty plot, pivot out whole healing with drain kiss/protecting spectrier, swap to Ogerpon with follow me support for it to sweep has been my basic gameplan

gloomy crescent
#

Is anyone thinking of a new team once the second dlc comes out

pale wraith
#

#banincineroar

gloomy crescent
#

Well iam putting lapras on my team

wanton plover
gloomy crescent
#

Is primarina gonna be good

#

Well it would take out incineroar

orchid falcon
#

i wanna find an easy way to keep blaziken on the feild for a while to get the speed boosts maxed out

deep sparrow
#

Does anyone have a decent torkoal TR rental or paste? Just wanna mess with it a bit

charred saddle
#

its a very cool team featuring gallade as the fast option

#

https://pokepast.es/f27b9769c9c0a829

this is my old team tweaking a bit from coldinglight team.

the fast option is flutter sunny day to Hliligant, or torkoal Htyplho, HH and eruption. or even Flutter H typlho sunny day eruption or like eruption moonblast to cover more options

#

Hlilligant after you and torkoal eruption is also a choice. but with the prevalence of follow me and rage powder it became a bit weaker. but still viable

#

ps. i have not fixed my EV spread. and i will avoid explaining prog team since i didnt know much about it

gentle delta
#

Whats the Armarouge Calc'd for in the spdef department?

#

Im also not sure you need Sunny Day and Drought

#

but cool shit

nocturne holly
#

Wdym?

gentle delta
#

You matchup well enough into other things to accept that bad matchup, every team has uphill battle matchups

#

ive been racking my brain all night trying to decide how hard I wanna work around Roaring Moon for example, they give me trouble

charred saddle
#

its been very long since i used it

#

oh right it lives to shadow ball from timid flutter

charred saddle
#

so i calced it enough to let indeedee die, take a shadow abll without tera then hit back expanding

gloomy crescent
orchid falcon
#

primarina is kinda mid

you can probably throat chop it and it will kinda suck

the game is changing too much in dlc2 imo

gloomy crescent
#

I hate when someone comes into a battle with a fluttermane

chrome knot
#

darnit

#

i using flutter @ a premier chal today KG_Giggles

bold geode
mellow barn
#

To be fair, Mane is one overused and powerful pokemon. If only there are ways to counter it 🤔

charred saddle
#

there are.

#

IH heavy slam

#

and not all flutter have the same sets, so finding the weakness is always good

bold geode
charred saddle
#

theres a reason IH is also one of the easy top picks. fake out, wild charge, drain punch, heavy slam.

very bulky with AV too

bold geode
charred saddle
#

its prob sword dance/BD variant i think

gloomy crescent
#

They might have used the wrong hands @bold geode

charred saddle

SD up once then like spamming drain punch

its not wrong. its just different variant

Because of the decline of ogerpon, amoonguss is coming back

charred saddle
#

i mean like max speed timid flutter thing

karmic temple
#

Fezandipiti let’s goo

#

Oh I don’t like the choice scarf

smoky hawk
#

I believe fire ogerpon dropped because water ogerpon deals with pokemon like urshifu and lando, and people like the bulky attacker type. That allowed amoonguss to creep back

bold geode
#

Max speed timid ain't around as much cuz too fast tbh

smoky hawk
#

That may mean fire ogerpon will see a resurgence. We could be in the middle of that shift

bold geode
charred saddle
#

i mean having the ability to outspeed RM before setting TW can be helpfuil

#

since it forces it to tera

smoky hawk
bold geode
#

Like it was overhyped a bit

smoky hawk
#

Maybe so

#

But now I need to think about the amoonguss match up for my local tomorrow

#

Which makes me want to go back to fire ogerpon instead of water, which means I need something else to deal with urshifu and lando

smoky hawk
#

I gotta restructure half my team now and playtest it

sand edge
#

when looking at the judge thingy what does each rating mean in numbers?

dull ibex
#

uh tbh im not sure

#

but no good is 0 and best is 31

sand edge
#

is best always 31? or could it be like 25 to 31?

dull ibex
#

its always 31

#

if you use bottle caps it automatically goes to 31

sand edge
#

nice then my chiny zoura has best speed thats nice

dull ibex
#

good luck

sand edge
#

thx a bunch less to hyper train then lol

dull ibex

26 vitamins for a full stat, thats a lot of $$$

Dipplin can use it though, even thought it supposedly can’t evolve

Read the messages above lol

I wasn’t looking as I was typing that😭

mellow barn

Yeah I am, just wondering. Is there other pokemon that have potential evolvultions

molten oasis
#

I want a trailer

molten oasis
#

For the dlc 2 stuff

mellow barn
#

Well there goes my Electric Surge Pincurchin idea Kek

molten oasis

I want the entei and terakkion paradox forms revealed so I can use wake and raging bolt in reg f

Duraludon is getting an Evo but isn't in now so doesn't count for intent here

It worked on Stantler and Ursaring before Arceus mons were in the game.

I thought we have its stats

molten oasis

I need more water types than shifu and inconsistent asf bundle (Ogerpon is there too ig)

lofty tartan
#

They are Paradoxes. Not event mons not legends not mythic

#

They were prereleased

molten oasis

Mirai and korai count as legends

Cuz they’re the box arts lol

Mirai and Korai are legends

otherwise I don’t see why not

They were right about BM Ursa and other stuff too

Remember the leaks where Munkidori had shadow tag

Imagine if that was real

ember linden

We better be able to use walking wake

Let’s just wait till we have guaranteed proof they are catchable first

nocturne holly

molten oasis

It was a different source

I only check trusted sources with proven track records of truth

That was severely wrong

So like two

molten oasis

NEVER YouTube videos

Oh god YouTube is horrible

Yea YT vids are really bad

For leaks

Leaks aren’t always correct so wait until a piece of hard evidence is shown

lofty tartan
#

Mm.

#

Anyway.

willow vault
#

I’m just saying don’t get to excited incase you can’t use it

ember linden
#

God forbid you scroll through YouTube and the leaker ytbers don’t have a full non silhouette image of dlc 2 things you don’t wanna see until you buy it

lofty tartan
#

The same is true for telling people it definitely will not be catchable.

#

👀

#

I just stated the leakers that were 100% correct about Teal Mask have stated a condition for DLC2 paradoxes. Take it at face value.

#

Leaks definitely should be taken with a grain of salt

#

But I'm confident they're gonna be in - would be weird to have 2/3 of two trios with the third locked away

#

Even if they're just catch one and done

willow vault
#

Face value nothing has yet been proven for dlc 2, and won’t be till either the dlc drops or Pokémon drop a trailer, I want Walking Wake to be usable, I’m just not getting my hopes up again

lofty tartan
#

Do you know what face value means, duder?

willow vault
#

Yes

I'm not sure you do lol

If Entei’s form isn’t just a bigger more prehistoric version of itself imma be pissed😭

Stop apologizing, you’re fine.

willow vault

It’s all good

Thanks guys

ember linden

Questions from people stop us from all arguing, and get us to focus on helping other people

vapid hedge

Hahahaha happy to help then

#

Do people in here actually play competitive or just hardcore fans?

ember linden
#

Most actually play then not

charred saddle

But I’m fine with online tours

vapid hedge

ill prob learn more about teambuilding then try some soon haha

CTS is kinda cringe tho

What is cts??

molten oasis

I found a Tera ghost lando

Closed team sheets

You can’t see the opponents Tera or moves

In OTS (open team sheets) you can see them

What ok, what is your guys rank on ladder?

Good for me to get humbled xd

charred saddle

i mean im not proud of it since its just a meta mon team

molten oasis

The rental I have is what I hit masterball with

charred saddle
#

i just yoinked 6 meta mon from top usage

ember linden
#

I’m 7k rn but I haven’t played since I top 2’d last weekend

#

Idek if I wanna play cart anymore

#

Sd is so much better tbh

molten oasis
#

I play cart for rewards

#

And I like the animations

ember linden
#

The only things anyone should like cart for lol

charred saddle
#

and yeah, i dont really like CTS. and theres no tour officials for me. so i kinda dont know what to do

molten oasis
#

I can only compete in online tournaments

ember linden
#

You doing rumble 30 today Dray?

molten oasis
ember linden
#

Ah, Imma sign up

I haven’t had the time to do tournaments

The one tournament I would have done I passed out before it started

It was the one you got second in

Ik Dray I was there lol

#

You and Monke both😭

molten oasis
#

Monke did fine

ember linden
#

Yeah

molten oasis
#

Tbf RNGsus hates me when I compete in a tournament so I prob wouldn’t have even done that well

ember linden
#

I missed three magmastorms round one, still won, and then hit every single one after💀💀

molten oasis
#

Bruh

#

Oh I think magma storm is kinda goated

ember linden
#

Damn right

molten oasis
#

My line into torn teams is keeping the fucker in so I can kill him

#

The a9 can set up snow and shit

ember linden
#

Like round 5 I played hard ho, swapped rilla for heatran on harc fb and spammed magmastorm w/ tera fairy

#

So broken on top of lefties + grassy

molten oasis
#

Lol

#

I think rilla lefties dengo goes so hard

ember linden
#

I beat so many gholds 2-0 that tournament it isn’t funny😭😭

molten oasis
#

Lol

ember linden
#

Baiting tera dragon with heatran rilla lead and then having flutter in the back just destroyed everything

#

I had a funny kommo-o matchup

charred saddle
#

btw does magma storm effect persists even if the user faints?

ember linden
#

Game 2 they thought I wasn’t ballsy enough to mb kommo-o on their iron def and then fake-out partner, they were so wrong😭😭

charred saddle
#

it does? dam

true niche
#

tornadus / flutter mane / lando 🛌

vapid hedge
#

Do i really need to grind legends arceus to get a tornadus? 😦

true niche
#

or swosh shield DLC (not the base game LMAO)

#

pay to win

vapid hedge
#

Yikes, someone sell me urshifu and tornadus, i have paypal

gloomy crescent
#

Wai do people hate swsh so much

ember linden
#

The graphics

#

Especially those damn trees

#

Hands down easiest pokemon game ever

gloomy crescent

Those trees yes

#

I agree

vapid hedge
#

I liked the game tbf

nocturne holly

anyone here used showdown 2.0 and showdex?

gloomy crescent
vapid hedge
#

But im playing a turney in 12 days, i dont have time to grind swsh & arc for 2 mons

nocturne holly
#

do any of yall use scarlet and violet 2.2 (stylish) with showdex
How do you configure showdex to fit it?

vapid hedge
#

Well let me rephrase; i liked the trees

gloomy crescent
#

@nocturne holly what's showdex

nocturne holly
#

a showdown extension

gloomy crescent
dull ibex
#

no nvm you have to use a different theme or deal with it

nocturne holly
#

how did you fix yours?

dull ibex
#

I don't use that theme

nocturne holly

which theme do you use

dull ibex
#

ah trustfalls' gen 9 showdown skin or wahtever

Hi everyone, is there a calculator to determine IVs in PLA?

#

Like I’ve done some googling and I know a Pokémon’s grit levels correspond to an IV

#

Like a natural 3 in a stat being a perfect iv while 0 means it’s 0-22 or something like that

#

I am about to catch heatran and want the 0 attack IVs

mellow barn
gentle delta
#

Trapping moves only persist if the user is still on the field

#

Clamp, Fire Spin, Sand Tomb, etc

Especially Magma Storm

mellow barn
#

Hey TR god, question. Would Gargonacl work in TR team?

molten oasis
#

Preserving heatran with magna storm active matters a lot

I have BDSP and can catch it there, I’ve just been waiting till I have free time so I can both figure out AND manip a shiny 0attack iv one

I was too lazy to reset for zero speed iv blood moon ursa😭

weary steeple
gentle delta
weary steeple
gentle delta
#

Lets it “outspeed” all the 50 Base Speed mons

weary steeple
#

How do y’all figure that out?

gentle delta
ember linden
#

I forget the ranges

gentle delta
#

We wanted Enamorus to be 48 speed or less, which is max 7 IVs

ember linden
weary steeple
gentle delta
#

Because for any PLA mon thats what you need

weary steeple
gentle delta
#

I got my 0 Speed Grit Enamorus in PLA. And transferred to Home and prayed

#

Whipped out an iv calculator when it was “decent” which is 1-10

#

And it was exactly 7 😭😭😭

ember linden
#

😭

gentle delta
#

Was so happy lol

weary steeple
#

Lol!

#

I’d probably use the superpower contrary build in all honesty

ember linden
#

If I needed to reset for ivs I would always just go for no good, or zero I can’t settle for anything else

weary steeple
#

I got a max speed iv bloodmoon i don’t have the luxury of going for TR rn RCry

gentle delta
#

Also IV of 1 in VGC is identical to zero so if you’re only accepting 0 you’re making your life harder for no reason

ember linden
gentle delta
#

When after 214 resets I finally got a 0 speed Glastrier the Caly was 1 speed too and I was so happy

#

Sure but thats the whole conversation we’re having

#

IVs on PLA mons

ember linden
#

Welp, just said something still somewhat relating

weary steeple
#

Yeah, like for other games you can just hope for the best

ember linden
#

Yeah.

gentle delta
#

If you need 0 anything just calc the IV whenever you see decent

weary steeple
gentle delta
#

Because Decent can be 1 which is “0”

weary steeple
#

Once you check it in home, you already saved

gentle delta
#

When I rng’d a shiny min speed Bisharp in Ultra Moon I had to settle for 1 because Bisharp had such a low encounter rate that even finding a shiny 1 speed frame took days of resetting

ember linden
#

Anyway

dull ibex
#

I need to use sinischa more eventually

ember linden
#

I tried to make a sinistcha team for my first of reg-e

gentle delta
ember linden

dull ibex

And when I was talking to Elijah Gardner about his Toronto team, he said Sinis would be the first cut if you wanted changes

im starting to regret my harc spread tbh

playing tr with one setter is odd ngl

ember linden
#

Unless it’s dusclops.

dull ibex
#

im talking about clops

ember linden
#

That mon is so stupid imo lol

#

Idk just clops makes sense

dull ibex
#

tr without a backup is odd no matter the setter

ember linden
#

Also the sd Ursaluna adaptation recently is scary af

dull ibex
#

its not a setter issue

bold geode
dull ibex
#

its not hurting the team but it is weird

ember linden
#

I feel like ppl don’t play mindgames with armadeedee enough

bold geode
#

That's kinda how the Soft TR/Balance plays out though sadly

dull ibex
#

I do not want to play soft tr

#

also my team is not soft tr not really

bold geode
#

It kinda is

ember linden
#

At least in my games

#

I always just see the same old follow me + tr armarouge

dull ibex
#

then I should switch teams

bold geode
#

Lmao
Just cuz no soft TR

ember linden
#

A good armadeedee player uses mind games

bold geode
#

Stick with it
It's not a bad team

dull ibex
#

im playing it like hard tr

gentle delta
dull ibex
#

so I should swap to a hard tr team

ember linden
bold geode
gentle delta
#

In Bo1 follow me + tr is almost always the play when its blind

dull ibex
ember linden
dull ibex
gentle delta
#

That is literally not hard tr

dull ibex
#

that's why I said I should swap

dull ibex
#

its not an insult to the team

ember linden
#

Torkoal is a staple in hard tr no?

bold geode
dull ibex
#

your point was to insult me for saying I should play a hard tr team instead lmao

gentle delta
# ember linden In sets

Obviously I need more info to agree or disagree with the use of follow me but psyspam turn 1s are a flow chart

Does this work? No? Okay what about this, and so on.

Follow Me is your first best option always

dull ibex
gentle delta

I said I play this like hard tr so i switch to hard tr instead

Imma just sit back

dull ibex

#

Personally I hate that clops team Ive never liked it

that's fair

I was running a version with heatran and sinischa

but I switched to this because It did well in tournaments

gentle delta
dull ibex

that isnt what happened

Are we really doing this now

No its not

yes it literally is that is ridiculous
