With scarf a priority move only helps to outspeed other pokemon and maybe the same species
i mean yeah, its a choice. i just dont think theres a lot of value in poison tera jab + scarf mon tbf.
theres that but yeah
Lando i lol
who drops CC on urshifu? Nobody does
On a scarf set you can drop sucker
The only way I see it’s value is to just try and catch Flutter even then Tera Dark Wicked Blow 2HKOs anyways
and u turn is like pivot
I really disagree with dropping Priority on Scarfers
Tailwind is still very much a thing and the priority pressure is just good to have in general
ig
Priority goes through Trick Room, not just sucker punch
thanks for clarifying and repeating mr ditto
I don’t personally click sucker or jet like ever so ig it’s a preference thing
I don’t disagree you’ll drop the priority move just be aware of your play after
On scarf mons
T-Clap and S-Punch are mind games in a nutshell
does Imprison affect what moves your ally pokemon can click? I've never used this move myself
No
Just opposing
Good luck in the GC, i forgot to register
So if I ran Imprison Flutter next to my Farigiraf, I can Imprison their Imprison but still set TR?
Lmao
Yea
I wasn’t doing gc anyway
I am doing GC
So good luck
gc still same reward?
It is my Sand team i will bring, me and my child excadrill must kick some ass that doubts sand
…Wipe some ass?
sorry, i meant to kick some ass, that is much better and less weird
the new eeveelution tioletpapereon
Wait
Can someone help me get bp points code is 7JL7T4
Since you’re not using Taunt are you just trying to lock their coverage lmaooo
Wrong channel.
I didn't know registering your team for the GC means you can't use the mons anywhere else lol.
I'm also using my rank team for the GC XD
For the duration of the GC, yea
It also means you cant use the team on ladder for some reason
wolfe's mane to counter archuladon and rain makes it a lot simpler to when I want to bring it
Yeah found out late. Good thing I'm in masters already.
Some teams tried to pull that on my Archaludon and got deleted
Let me use the team Gamefreak dont lock it just for the GC
Lmaooo
Can someone help me get bp points
Let me guess heavy slam arch
yes lol, i've seen way too much redirection + imprison
2nd warning dude it’s not the right channel
wrong channel my guy....
obviously wolfe is just genuinely one of the best ever and not an auto win but its a nice start
Ok
I need to connect the dots on when I want pieces
Stellar Life Orb Steel Beam go brrrr
knowing one matchup that is decent is nice 🙂
Did you see my Pikachu team
Too good
screw it ill be in vc I want to play a bit of vgc
Pikachu light ball hits super hard, blud has an Attack/SpA of legendaries at the cost of shit bulk, FO also helps
@dull ibex can you open up VC more?
Y'all lied and failed me they dropped my rank 😭
ok that feature is dumb
I genuinely don't know since i never got SWSH
I wanna hurt someone everytime a pokemon prolongs a battle by using protect
oh boi
is someone using Trick room-
BRO PLS
uhhh
Ok nvm
?
I was down to my last pokemon and if torkoal was faster than me I was cooked
did opponent set up trick room
No
Fighting Leon now 🙄 here he goes w that Charizard again
that proved i never bought SWSH
cringezard
He's as predictable as ever
Fire Blast,Solar Beam,Anicent Power and Air Slash?
i think thats Leon's Zard Moves
He switches his pokemon w Charizard then gmaxs it
Battle tower pokemon have speed that is too high for normal standards
any sun teams that i can use in both SV and SwSh?
the format that's played in SV and SWSH is wildly different
i hate myself-
Why?
Terapagos almost Clutched up but Urshifu has other plans
Oh
i need 2 fresh start mochi to change Terapagos EVs yo br motr bulky and
Ogerpon to be more offensive
I need to make Terapagos Physicallyt Bulky
cuz fuck Urshifu man
Does anyone know any current pokemon i could use to build a team?
This is why I love using Tera water crown lol.
My promotional game to masters from ultra this season involved fighting a torkoal.
I was expecting him to lead with liligant torkoal for the after you + eruption spam.
But for some reason he didn't lol.
Raging Bolt Snarl + Tera Water Tera Blast Crown and that torkoal was a sitting duck.
I only learned how to counter h-liligant + torkoal because I got massacred by one before.
After you is literally a free turn without trick room.
I had no idea h-liligant can do that lmao.
Also Rain Dance (Tornadus) decreases the potency of fire attacks.
It's a great counter to torkoal.
Urshifu: "Allow me to introduce myself."
What if someone spams you with hypnosis, putting all of your mons to sleep, thus taking away your ability to play the game because all of your mons went to daydreamland?
I still put up a fight, but it was too late. lol.
I hope someone uses that gimmick on me again. 😄
Hahahaha.
So true man, once i played against an espathra sandy shocks combo and my pokemon were useless, so fun to play against 😄
I raged happily at it
Im a copy ninja and an omnidroid 9000.
I love to copy people who've already been there and done that.
And if I lose matches, I try to find out what I could have done better and execute that the next time I face the same lineup.
Some of my wins are literally teams I lost to before.
And it feels good to win against the same team that crushed you mercilessly in the past.
Same, crushing A-Muk teams are so satisfying isn't it
A-Muk players are just people trash at the game and use luck to their side to win (Get clapped in masters noobs)
Literally treated myself to pizza during that time.... Hahaha.
Worth it. ❤️
Let me guess that was a very good time
New York's Finest. Only the best.
lol
Good luck, I wonder if we will end up battling together lol.
i might stick with the team i built before,but this time i swap Meowscarda with Raging Bolt Maybe
even tho Meowscarda is valueable for Triple Axel
Flamigo dozo teams are the peak of vgc brainrot
If you know what you're doing they're easy to beat
But still so boring
Will anyone tell Reg A Wolfe? He used it in the beggining of reg A and he hated Murkrow after that
I stand by what I said
https://pokepast.es/8a7216ff0acf4ba0
I am thinking of this team,but i might switch someone for ragnig bolt
Even if it's a skilled player using it
Brick break is interesting
Screens,but its for coverage
Ok
What got you to use drain punch over cc for urshifu?
i might need to change that
For Longetvity sometimes
He laughing though
but i forgot that close combat exists
How did you forget about one of the best fighting moves ever?
cuz i abused Drain punch for too much in Iron Hands-
If you're not using sash I'd use protean over instead of overgrow
Meows isn't living a lot of hits at 1/3 hp
unless if i am in trick room,i'm usually faster than most of them except scarff mons
You know what overgrow does right
ik,It boost grass attacks in 1/3
there is a reason i want to change to Bolt-
Pelipper:Am i a joke to you
If you're not using sash you'll rarely benefit from overgrow
i already used Sash on Pelipper
You could make it a bulkier set
If you're that worried about bolt ohkoing it just use tera grass or ground
aight i am changing Meow to Bolt
As much as I like it it's sadly not that good
Well it's good
Just not for vgc currently
And probably ever again
i would still use it cuz i have no other choice
how long do i have to lock in my GC team
Would rilla be a choice
after tournament
no the team in GC will be locked until after the tournament
i know that... im saying when are teams due
i literally did that mistake when i did not change Meow's Tera
lemme check
either have 30 minutes or an hour and 30 minutes
@chrome knot I have horrible news
I have run out of Pokemon materials
And therefore can not gamble for balls anymore
Life's a bitch
lmao
Genocide more
me like 3 months ago
Dopamine cannot be filled now
i have 49k bp no materials
lucly for you, a new outbreak event means that you can slaughter babies for more materials
I got like
7-8k rn
But all I got is a Scraggy material and fuckin Gimmighoul coins, which I shouldn't gamble away
If you run out of Pokemon Materials
Just Genocide more chansey
No I think Duraludon and children are the most valuable
then Commit Genocide on both of them
Breaking News,Local VGC Player Genociding Skyscraper Towers and Children for Materials
I’ve been thinking about making a team for a while but I don’t know what I want to build
guys im new to comp,i want to do a comp team in sv any help/tips?
Yo
If you're new to comp, you're better off starting with premade rental teams
how do i play them?
Once you've read/watched about the basics you need to understand how it works in practice
cuz i have one but i dont how i can use them
I hate this
Basically people can share a team online that you can use for free as if it was yours, only during online battles, via a code
Why are the resoueces for competitive so expensive😭😭
it doesnt let me use it in online battles
Duplicate items, Mythicals, certain Legendaries
Hi tofu
Restricted moves
Hey something funny that i saw is that in reg F's rules Pecharunt appears as legal but it's clearly not usable lol
krookodile mewscarada seblaye flamigo hatterene indeede
Not related but why would you use that team
Sounds like you might wanna try one of the many documents and videos that introduce you to competitive
Because sadly using your favorites / what you beat the game with doesn't get you far
I beated the game with Incineroar
nah thats not mine team i copied that by a guy on yt
i sens u vid rq
Oh is it anger point costar
I think you’re watching a very outdated YT video
And a meme one
where can i send u vid?
You don't have to
I mean it was good but because BO1 closed teamsheet in ladder
I think we can tell what the team is about
rlly?
Meowscarada flower trick on defensive tera anger point krookodile
The team even fell because it became popular and people just, knew how to beat it
Costar flamigo copies the boost
yes😭
well ok i need to search a team
where can i?
Pao entei now
Unrelated but here's a team I'm enjoying using
Works well enough in 1500-1550 showdown
Jumpluff has wasted EVs and you don’t need Heavy Slam if you’re going +2
Just the item on wake that I could change
I meant to put 4 on spatk jumpluff
That's my bad
js a thing how do i understand how to play the team?
Playing the team
Or searching youtube videos about how to play it
Even with that there is not a way of saying how to exactly play the team
In short you take advantage of chien pao lowering the defense of opponents to hit them with both of your pokemon
But if you don't know, you probably need guides
It's not like anyone can tell like yeah do this and then do this and you win
I think it's better knowing like, the role of each Pokémon in the team
Just ran into a Blaze Incineroar with no Fire moves on ladder. Tera Grass Safety Goggles too. Can someone help me from dying of laughter?
i hope it was all a mistke
in fact wth kind of moveset was it running with no flare blitz? 
ok Tera Grass Safety Goggles make sense,but BLAZE INCIN WITH NO FIRE MOVES??
I usually just assume they have something up their sleeve and just go super aggressive lmao.
I brought a Dark Lauriat Incineroar once with EV spreads meant for tera raids only.
I ended up winning.
And yes, bringing that Incineroar was an accident.
Not sure how I won that match in masters with a tera raid EV spread but, ok. lol.
And that incin was switched in last.
So when things don't pan out as expected, they tend to completely fall apart.
So yeah, my opponent was probably caught off guard.
Cause my dark lauriat instantly killed the final mon.
Yea.
That's how rigid and formulaic the meta is now.
this is invalid on Open Team Sheets btw
Is the global competition best of 3 and ots?
Or is it like ladder bo1?
I registered and it's my first time.
ladder bo1
I'll admit surprise is how I catch a lot of opponents off guard with my Hisuian Electrode.
Also reminds me of my Gen 4 and Gen 5 Wigglytuff.
That was an Anti-Lead set.
Copycat/Counter/Magic Coat/Snatch.
damn
It's Wigglytuff, so people just wrote it off and did their usual plans.
Machamp with the Scarf No Guard? Focus Sash + Counter.
Scizor with Swords Dance? Snatched.
Stealth Rock? Magic Coat. Now you have the rocks.
oh boi
My favorite situation was a Ferrothorn that tried to set up Rocks and Spikes.
I bounced both back at him, bounced his second attempt at Rocks, and then he went for the frustrated Gyro Ball, which Counter KO'd.
lol
Not really, you can still catch opps off guard with techs/gameplans if you’re aware of your lines
Beat Up/Justified isn’t any less lethal on OTS/CTS
It isn't any less lethal, but they will see it coming now. I think that's the difference.
Because they will see that you chosen Justified instead of whatever the normal Ability of choice would be.
It also eliminates most of the already niche use cases for stuff like Frisk, Anticipation, and other niche info gathering Abilities.
Anyone down to play Scarlet/Violet doubles?
playing a current top 5 player in the GC and their team is wild lol
will report back with any weird techs
Prolly eruption typh and arboliva is a specific check for some things?
Is torrent a good ability?
Dillon didn't report back so I assume it wasn't weird enough 
Not really, no
they really screwed swampert over with abilities, torrent and damp
My primarina has it, idk if I wanna change it to sparkling aria but I think torrent sounds better?
Liquid Voice, you mean?
And Torrent/Blaze/OVergrow/Swarm are all exceptionally mid
Torrent is an ability, Liquid Voice is a hidden ability, Sparkling Aria is a signature move for Primarina (and it's also not good)
So either way it doesn't matter?
Liquid Voice is better than Torrent - turns all sound-based moves into Water moves. Don't use Torrent.
Alright thank you
Primarina has access to Hyper Voice, so with Liquid Voice it becomes a strong water spread move.
And no worries 
Why the fuck did I see this exact roster and I called it clunky as shit
Like literally
in this chat
we love game winning crits
is the GC limited to only 15 battles or is it 15 battles per day?
really wish I could practice on showdown 😔
per day
why cant you?
its wolfe's team
thanks. this is going to be a long one then. tfw GC3 is our Nats qualis
this is terrible advice
the team no longer is wolfe's team if I use my spreads
waht the fuck else am i supposed to say
Don't say anything at all at that point LMAO
"heres wolfey's evs, which i dont have"
great idea
Im just sad I can't use it on showdown lmao
you could, if you just used other ev spreads, its still the same 6
Maybe ill find that super boring team tofu mentioend and play
and theres no way for you to get them anyway
but its not, the spreads make the mons
what
moves change the mons a lot more than the evs
the evs matter plenty yes but the moves and tera's matter more overall
sure, whatever
lmao
in this case yes you are
no red
its literaly EVERY FUCKING TIME I SAY ANYTHING in your eyes im wrong
doesnt matter what
i am wrong
you make wrong statements sometimes, there has been plenty of times i've told you I was wrong
don't pull that bullshit with me please
not really
also im usually right
i do not remember a single time you said you were wrong from ANY point i make
especially in this case where alot of the team has specific calcs and use cases
its just not the same team without the spreads
no youre not
even if i was wrong what is the point of being woah is me over a fucking pokemon argumemt
you make it impossible to talk to you
cool
like get over it jesus fucking christ
cool
anyways shell balance that was the team
I dont remember the six, I could probably ask the other discord im in
I found it!
Sorry, there’s no excuse for how I acted. Shouldn’t have said that, I got mad and I have problems.
I’m about to break and im barely keeping it together
it happens
I’ll try to be better about lashing out
I hope you get better at that
No I will be better about lashing out
School is stressing me out
I won’t say anything more
🫡
Team looks solid hope it works out
That’s good
ye
What is a strategy that beats porygon 2, amoongus, incin and rapid urshifu
Imma be honest
Not sure lol
But you probably want to try and prevent trick room
A goggles and/or grass Mon helps for incin
Wellspring is solid into shifu, you can also run raging bolt
P2 is generally just very bulky, id try ti mitigate its damage with snarl or parting shot so that it’s just a sitting duck on the field
Anything with taunt shuts down p2 and amoonguss
Raging bolt, goggles incin or ogerpon (hearth or wellspring) sounds decent into that
I haven’t played into it much so I’m not sure what to use
He is a great resource. He's been in the game almost as long as I have, but has been far more successful. He's got such a good grasp of Pokemon and the meta game. He really knows his stuff.
Definitely makes great content too.
Very charismatic.
13-2 in gc day 1 lfggg
Gholdengo + setup
Does anyone know where I can ask for help with my team? I’d just like someone to tell me what I can improve with
Well, here.
This would be the place
Oh okay cool
Would chi yu, metagross, primarina, meowscarada, polywrath and landorus T be a good team?
It’s got great coverage
It would be better, honestly, to get a pokepaste showing information beyond the initial six pokemon, which doesn't tell us a whole lot of information.
Though I can say Poliwrath just isn't that good right now, and neither is Meowscarada
Oh damn it doesn’t show the Pokémon
itd be easier to take a look at the team if we can see the EV spreads, IV, and items
and so, pokepaste is generally better for this.
you can just make your team in pokemon showdown teambuilder, then import the team to pokepaste
click upload to pokepaste below, and jjust copypaste the link
like so
You can work with this
[Message](#competitive_discussion message) in #competitive_discussion

Rather than using a general roster for coverage, you want to have a gameplan in mind already. I also want to call to mind an awareness about the meta-game and to temper your expectations when using preferential picks, and being realistic about what options can work. Each piece should have a reason to be there that forwards the overall gameplan
https://pokepast.es/ece256f356b92fde
https://pokepast.es/f9ab8e28df8471a4
Which is better? I noticed on the team with wellspring is that grass types are pretty hard to deal with, i am not sure if i should go with follow me hearthflame or play rough for dragons (I am tempted to use drago's FM spread)
@mighty stump @bold geode https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9vgc2024regf-2091686315 funni
Watch a replay of a Pokémon battle between redstonejesus and dr0pk1ck! Format: [Gen 9] VGC 2024 Reg F; Date: Mar 29, 2024
Bad
Urshifu rapid strike>>> Poliwrath
Chi-Yu doesn't have many good partners so it doesn't has too much value on the team
It's not only about coverage
Meowscarada could be good but, still there are better grass types, but it can work
You kinda wanna look at having offensive pressure while maintaining a balanced defense
Some of those are pretty offensive
Like chi yu and meowscarada
But by themselves they don't do way too much
Yk
That's where the team synergy comes in
Yeah
That's why i don't think Chi-Yu doesn't do too much on the team, it's 4 physical attackers and Primarina, and Primarina is slow so it's hard to take too much advantage of the beads of ruin
The coverage is good so i think it's better going for a balance team
The team with Hearthflame should handle grass types fine
And don’t run play rough
You have tools ti handle dragons
(Strong neutrals)
Once again I don’t like houndstone but you should be wisping the grass types (rilla wellspring)
I think Lycanroc or Excadrill would be better for a sand team
And i don't know how much is the Ursaluna BM + Farigiraf doing
Also leftovers Raging Bolt should always run protect
It's like a rule that it's not a rule, but every Pokémon who runs leftovers should have protect
Bolt wants tclap tbolt dpulse protect and calm mind at the same time in this case, so I kinda understand dropping protect for tbolt
what did i miss
Let's try to build a Dipplin team
Wolfey Reference???
Yes
May I ask why
Especially over Hydrapple
I just opened youtube and found a Dipplin guide from like 7 months ago
And i don't think it's thaaaaat bad
Anyways is gonna be 5 meta Pokémon+ Dipplin
What are you doing with it exactly
Cuz generally, I’m telling you just to use Hydrapple
i think Maxi want to do something similar to Wolfey, being funni
It gets all the same moves, along with fickle beam
It’s defense is way higher
I think
but he wants to be quirky and different!!
Grass/Dragon
Supersweet Syrup, Gluttony, Sticky Hold (Hidden)
80/80/110/95/80/40
485
Electric, Grass, Water
Ground
Dark, Fighting, Fire, Ghost, Normal, Psychic, Rock, Steel, Stellar
Bug, Dragon, Fairy, Flying, Poison
Ice
Grass-types are immune to Powder-based Moves.
add 50% buff on eviolite
Wait wrong one
Grass/Dragon
Supersweet Syrup, Regenerator, Sticky Hold (Hidden)
106/80/110/120/80/44
540
same defenses??
Hydrapple is MUCH better
Let's gooo
Where’s ogerpon
If you’re gonna run Dragon cheer gimmicks you should run ogerpon
And you want Tera fairy or steel
Raises the target's chance for a critical hit by 1 stage, or by 2 stages if the target is Dragon type. Fails if there is no ally adjacent to the user, or if the target already has this effect or the Focus Energy effect. Baton Pass can be used to transfer this effect to an ally.
Dragon

15 (24)
Bypasses Protect-like moves.
Bypasses substitute.
Does not make contact.
And again HYDRAPPLE IS BETTER
Forgot the tera lol, but it was tera fairy dipplin
I would just use it on ranked bo1 closed teamsheet
But yeah Hydrapple would be better
ok did Kyogre just use Drizzle on my area-
There’s also a whopping 1 thing benefiting from syrupsweet
Use Hydra give it regenerator
Iron Bundle would be good on it replacing Urshifu?
Bitter blade on ceruledge is so busted lol
Iron bundle is mid
Ok let's see if i can make Hydrapple work
You need to surround it with meta mons cuz it does not do very good
It's more like a glue
Now is more of a niche Pokémon
nah because its literally every set will ran
Like Regieleki
imagine Corny pop in and say its not niche-
Hydrapple @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Regenerator
Level: 50
Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Quiet Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Fickle Beam
- Pollen Puff
- Yawn
- Protect
Nah bundle is mid it is not glue lol
No 90 base power move should recover health
Does it learn something like nasty plot or calm mind?
Don’t do nasty plot
Buuu
It's like an Amoonguss with a 160 base power move
Sure yea
Tera fairy is for single strike
Yiu can also run steel as it covers for its weaknesses
The set I sent is what I got working after a lot of work
but only a chance of it happening
Unfortunately Hydrapple isn’t very good because of it’s typing being such a detriment to it
still tho its either gonna be Dragon Claw Power or Gigaton Hammer Base Power
Cuz it has everything else
Chip damage
Is still valuable
At least it's lucky that it was introduced in the gen where you can change your type
But still with that it's not very good
You don't want to tera a specific mon 90% of the times you bring it to a match
Yea it sucks
Really unfortunate for it
Torrent did you ever finish that terapagos team
i was abut to mention,i already did yesterday and you saw that
I don’t remember it
https://pokepast.es/4ed452fa43a0f50d
The team with Primarina onit?
i decided not cuz its not tanky enough to survive special attackers running around in restricted
sure
User?
I'm working on my Hisuian Goodra team and already have a base Goodra team, I'm still thinking about what I'll make the rest of my teams around, probably Dragonite at least
What's the hisuian goodra set?
Maushold, Sinistcha, Inciniroar, Alolan Ninetales, Anniahlape
They are too fast for tr, ursaluna BM/Tyranitar do great with farigiraf, protect isn't always needed and iirc i am running AV on it
Base Goodra is Whimsicott, Gholdengo, Rilaboom, Inciniroar, and Kingambit
Man
I suppose the H-Goodra is a iron defense body press set
Gg
ggs man
Incineroar and Terapagos are so good
Can we go again
you can just one shot me with Close Combat
It doesn’t
Nothing one shots terapagos
it does i learnt the hard way
Lets be thankful that terapagos doesn't get iron defense, otherwise with CM its a wall and wall breaker
…
imagine tho-
sure
Unfortunately I didn't realize that I needed to teach it acid armor before evolving for no good reason
It does not learn acid armor after evolving?
Shell armor completely replaces it
That's a bitch
It's not that important, it's just a little more PP for the move, but it's still dumb
Nah then don't worry
The problem is still just the Maushold and Sinistcha since my comp teams are all shiny and they have rare forms
I remember that if you made your Crocalor forget/ not learn yawn it could not relearn it once evolved and now it can
I hope they change how Shell Armor works and give H-Goodra acid armor, since that's the only reason it can't learn it
Ggs
ggs
What's the problem with that?
I'm slow sorry
Noted, run urshifu lmao
holy crap i did not know my team is THAT Annoying
i have to learn Incin Pivot-
It is
Terapagos is so annoying, you having torn is also really annoying
Is there a good shell balance rental?
oh yeah the tornadus you promised (Make sure to add fresh start Mochi
Can’t today, I’m literally busy all day
oh
Like I can do things on my phone
I just ran into a psyspam team with indeedeedee setting it up with a move
But I won’t have access to my switch today
i see its ok,i can wait,besides Whimsicott final days in the team
RIP my favourite Cotton Candy girl(Yes its a girl)
Why?
yeah about that i don't have good shit to use That can delete Rillaboom with
Incin
Moonblast is the best option but still-
i fucking forgot-
And sunny day
tho if its double Restricted i might make Tornadus not use Sunny day or Keep sunny day but not using Kyogre
I’m Tera dragon on Zac for all the ogers and then taking like, specs miraidon things
The problem is getting them
yeah- i get you
i was not expect Tera Dragon
Maushold has a horrible shiny to spot and I got punked twice trying to hunt authentic Poltchageist outbreaks
The outbreak was authentic, the shiny was not
Tera fire and Tera grass both keep weaknesses and I didn’t want to do water as testing that failed
ah
you learn something new everyday
Also g1 you didn’t need to Tera
You probably won not clicking Tera before I went for close combat
yeah-
set 1 round 2 i actually think i lost cuz what happen last night
does a pokemon with adaptability lose their original stab once they tera or do i remember wrong (for example basculegion goes for tera water, gets 2.25x water multiplier now, loses ghost stab)? 
if you tera you keep your stab
We can go again if you want. The first bo3 I missplayed for sure, but clicking Tera is just, scary lol
just not extra stab
Infront of a terapagos
i need to wash the dishes and probably made some minor adjustments
All good
how has everyone's GC run been going?
I didn’t do it. How’s your run?
I hard threw two of my matches but I ended day one 11-3 so I'm still pretty happy
I'm running a very cheese team
It’s the power band shifu team right?
yep hahahah
the main issue is tyranitar teams because I need to have Urshifu positioned next to Torkoal to deal with them, otherwise they're not easy at all
specs earth power does like 25% to Tyranitar it's gross how hard torkoal is walled
i feel like my team is gonna be Annoying like me irl
figured it out i think, if basc goes tera water it gets 2.25x on water moves but loses the adaptability boost on its ghost moves
is it AV T-tar?

Figuring out what teams I could make would be a lot easier if I could actually shiny hunt legendaries
The only non-locked game I have rn is BDSP
Just look at usage stats and go from there lol.
i think Shiny Hunters would have better answers
Though my Sinistcha does have the uncommon mark, should I just go with that instead since it's actually noticeable?
Oof lol
Ttar teams can shine in gc
I can confirm this
ttar is such underdog,like power creep is hindering it but somehow he is still rising
I just got very lucky in a turn
Excadrill and Lycanroc are assisting tyranitar a lot, sand giving it a massive special defense is also a contributor, tera and amazing everything except typing
Reg f bo3 anyone?
why do i feel Like Terapagos would be the Next Lunala-
let sgo
Shit
yeah its really does
Lmaooooo
Was not expecting tofu ngl
LOL- 
Alright
Tofu was the fuckin Undertaker
Lemme pull out my laptop
Redeem yourself infront of the lord himself Drago, you can do it
Tofu jumpscare
make this an actual thing-
It’s reg f, I have a “better” chance (I’m gonna get rolled)

Eat some tofu
i love people naming their discord user names Foods
why do i feel like Red's Team but minor tweaks
Tyranitar wiped that team out
gg
Of course with tornadus' tailwind
GGs
Gapdos guy lost right?
I mean it is the master after all
The master murders teams with just a bit of effort
I think i would lose to him in 2 turns
This team sucks into this
3 at best
Nothing I can do about it
I think you guys are gassing me up a bit too much

You did absolutely beat the shit out of Drago's team
Like cmon stop, it’s every time
I'm sure you all have your moments
Chill it was only twice Drago
It’s more than just 1
Sorry, I’m frustrated I played poorly
I'm not gonna say anything maybe
Dont worry, you can beat him next time
Wanna try again?
it’s not the team it was my plays and I made the wrong calls
i want to make a joke but i feel like its not the right moment
sure
ok
lemme get some bread first
I haven't eaten the whole day since I got home from work I just woke up from the fattest nap of my life
i feel like if someone got washed by Tofu,their gravestone always has drink too much Soy Milk
don't question why i think about that
Cool
at least you got power nap
I kinda just don't
I slept at 11:30 PM (or 12 AM idk) and woke up at nearly 12 PM
damn 30 minutes???
i think Drago and Some others know i literally don't sleep-
Or 23:30 (or 00:00) and woke up at nearly 12:00
Oh.
well considering I wake up for work at 6
eh fair point
i just kinda don't have enough sleep and when i go to school i make wacky teams in School's Laptop
ok @molten oasis
I’m ready whenever
Hey tofu you said that japan team is called shell yeah?
you got this my boi
i just call it the japan shell
you got it drago
Do you know where the original is?
or japan balance
go get him
itts just about the roster
Gotcha
It’s fine
Someone in another discord called it an evolution of Wolfe team
https://pokepast.es/0fa7f1968890b778 @molten oasis
So I might just practice that for now too
I do think that I've seen hacked mon that have a "legitimate" OT
Like old gift pokemon
of course when i Bo3 i have the wrong team
F
https://pokepast.es/026c9faae5932fc1 found one
https://pokepast.es/0e5237a4cec835be This is Brady,s some of the EVs are kinda shit but it works ig
I have my Goodra team up for rental, I don't have image permissions yet though
Comfey is a stupid bitch with triage and fairy feather
lol
i have a shiny Comfey don't burn it
Funny flower ring 
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Why is triage so stupid
Jokes on you, it's pure fairy type
ik but fairy is not good against Fire Types
fire resist its stab lol
atleast it's prone to being upper handed very easily
mhm
i wanna make the Ba Dum tiss
but eh next time
Same problem as Florgus
Ggs
GGs @molten oasis
Cannot believe that didn’t kill p2
that took Longer damn
See Drago can win a set
LETS GO MY MAN
You just lose mental too easily
I have to play out of my fucking mind lol
Should we ramp up the difficulty
I mean you won so Yea
Nice drago
same my man
true
not worried now because it's spring break
okiedokie
yep
surprised drago is doing it now
huh
I noticed that i play too recklessly in matches, got to play more carefully
and i played too carefully and can't do shit on players
i just realised i prep too much
Not related but i wish they add Scream Tail as a skin to Jigglypuff in the next smash😭
TRUE
Or as an echo fighter
GGs @molten oasis
ggs
They always add a new Pokémon in every smash game
i think Ash Greninja,Clone Kanto Starters also work
i didnt know we were speed tied
That 1 turn sleep tho
You can just, copypaste Jiggly, change some thing here, some things there, and you complete the task of adding a new Pokémon
that was crazy, i lost if that didnt happen
ah
that was fun, close games like that are awesome
feels better than getting 4-0ed lol
its entertaining because it creates a sense of suspence
Now that you've won two sets next time you have an upsetti moment you're indirectly calling me bad if you call yourself a shit player
yep thank you English GCSE
lmfao, ok
im gonna work on that
ik its a problem
Anyone else wanna play a set?
playing smash rn
i mean, i over preped for like 3 days
OHHH LET'S PLAY
If Fucker Mane gets added to smash i swear i will stop paying for Nintendo products
I have to practice
you also play smash
I also play smash but i haven't played it in a long time
I play it butbi usually get like the strikes
i haven't play for so long and i actually done a lot in Pokemon so have a little break for it
I feel the exact same about MK8D, it is too luck based and it literally made me quite insane, i quit it. I pray Nintendo doesn't make a game as luck based as Mario Kart 8 Un-deluxe
are you me
Nah that's why i don't take MK8 seriously
pro tip: Never do
alright i'll make the arena ok
It's funny funny until you get the worst fucking luck of all time
Let's goo
except that always happens to me
No matter how well i play, i always get held back by luck
Smash is so unbalanced as well
1FL8G
658 (Greninja's National Dex Number)
Sonic is what killed the game for me
Me who mains Aegis not because they broken
Steve is so dumb
Steve is Dumb but i like to play against steve cuz its funny
Kazuya is also dumb
Greninja,Aegis Toon Link main here so yeah
ko'ing people at 80% with a cart is fun
FINALLY
SOMEONE KNOW ME
Atleast Kazuya is skill based unlike sonic and steve
Seph Gren Terry main
@foggy lodge oh here it is
Primarily seph
me
I'm Juliii
Fellow froggy main
I main Aegis swords, steve, King DDD and Byleth
Based, for dedede
Aegis Based
im not sure how to balance japan balance tbh

My friend played byleth
you dont
He was also like, hard addicted to the game
That’s the, double fo shifu bolt team right?
yeah
interesting
What about it is giving you trouble?
I dont know my leads and combos like I do with wolfe's team
I got one
Idk what your 5th and 6th are as that tends to vary, and also sets
Alr
Raging bolt is a set up sweeper
You lead it and usually rilla or incin depending on the mu
this went day 2 at a tourney and had a rental as well so I chose it at rnadom
gotcha
Watch a replay of a Pokémon battle between buckero and redstonejesus! Format: [Gen 9] VGC 2024 Reg F; Date: Mar 29, 2024
Nah i play Pokémon Trainer
but damn the Ivysaur
based
Ivysaur is so broken
i respect the Ivysuar thats actually very good
yep
Really well played
Getting the call on wellspring not clicking follow me was good
you did lose shifu but it ended up being fine
It did it’s job
Are there any mu’s in specific you’re not sure on leading into
I forgot about that flinch lol
my god i haven't play for so long
“Balanced”
Wood hammer ogerpon kinda crazy tho
And kills like at 90%
🦖
Imagine Ogerpon in Smash
also pretty balanced
PLEASE
Smash 6, we can only wait
i main froggy for a reason
Ivysaur did like 40% damage with that
It’s gonna happen there’s no way Nintendo doesn’t do another smash game
I would like to see skeledirge in smash
Unpopular opinion
especially if you realize it is the 2nd best game when it comes to sales
I think Zac would be cool
Forward aerial
you know what made me quit smash?
Having a lot of games and needing to play all of them
If only he landed that on the opponent instead of them grabbing him
not spoiling it
Who hasn’t seen that movie
nah but like mario back air comes out in 6 frames and ends in less than half of a second
Vgc is all we need
We’re not gonna talk about the insane range of characters in FP2
Like, the range in the characters movesets
damn it lol ggs
sephiroth can spike you under the stage
VGC,Xenoblade 2 and Legend of Zelda is alli need
has an up-air the size of a fucking building
I WAS PLAYING SEPTH
welp GG Maxi i think thats enough training for me
Seph is funny
Ivysaur too
Hinders from the Framerte-
Ggs
Greninja:just fucking dies in down Air
