#

Also i would already do damage on Kyogre-

molten oasis
#

before you tera

#

again terapagos is a mon that utilizes timing

solid frigate
#

i would not use Rain Dance infront of a Kyogre team-

timber falcon
#

ok so i now understand, the convo is weather taerapagos walls kyogre or not

warped mason
#

Not using rain dance on tornadus is throwing

#

Considering there's so much weather manipulation rn

If this Pokemon is a Terapagos at full HP, the effectiveness of attacks against it is changed to 0.5 unless this Pokemon is immune to the move. Multi-hit moves retain the same effectiveness throughout the attack.

#

yeah rain will just return if its tornogre

solid frigate
#

soooooooooo

molten oasis
#

youre game plan into tornogre is removing torn then getting kyogre into a position where it cant set rain dance again

timber falcon
#

i doubt a kyogre is using water spout anyway, most likely origin pulse no?

molten oasis
#

kyogre is often scarf

timber falcon
#

cause they know u can chip at them

molten oasis
#

to prevent this

timber falcon
solid frigate
solid frigate
timber falcon
#

u have so many teams lol

solid frigate
warped mason
#

Meteor beam terapogos is pretty scary ngl

timber falcon
#

it got tofu no.1 in ladder at one point im pretty sure

molten oasis
#

i stil think terapagos has a more positive mu into kyogre

solid frigate
#

just without the 4x weak against Dark

timber falcon
#

actually, torrent, whats your MU into zama

molten oasis
#

idt its the same case with groudon who doesnt necesarilly rely too heavily on sun to do the most damage

Kyurem white my 🐐

solid frigate
#

both Kyurems are a Problem for my team

molten oasis
#

im guessing kyurem is there because of turboblaze

solid frigate
warped mason
#

Turboblaze having relvance is pretty cool

timber falcon
#

why wouldnt it

molten oasis
#

mold breaker generally doesnt have a ton of relevance usually

timber falcon
#

its like mold breaker right

solid frigate
warped mason
#

I mean, its not usually that impactful against most restricteds

molten oasis
#

i think zac is neutral

#

its positioning based

solid frigate
#

honestly, if Xerneas is in this game i would Ran Xerneas instead of Terapagos

timber falcon
# solid frigate

i think u need an MU for zama. ur entire team strugglees into iron defence + redirection/wide guard

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

yk

#

gholdengo fits nicely on this team

solid frigate
#

Koraidon i can probably be fine against if i can keep the reflect and good positioning

timber falcon
#

just zama?

solid frigate
timber falcon
molten oasis
#

you'd have to drop bolt probably you have fo with incin redirect with wellspring and speed control with torn

solid frigate
timber falcon
#

oh ok

#

oh yeah btw can rayquaza run ddance instead of sd

molten oasis
#

theres better ddance/set up mons to use

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

ik its fine

timber falcon
solid frigate
#

ahem Zekrom

molten oasis
#

zacian, zama, lunala, terapagos

timber falcon
#

???

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

im not refering to ddance specifically

timber falcon
#

oh ok

#

ive used 2 out of those 4

molten oasis
#

ray also just, meh

#

its speed tier sucks

timber falcon
#

so i think ill actually use taerapagos for once

solid frigate
timber falcon
solid frigate
timber falcon
molten oasis
#

theyre equal

#

cuz theyre both equally mid

timber falcon
#

mhm

solid frigate
#

yeah but Zekrom feels more better now i see someone uses it

timber falcon
#

u mean lycopoky

molten oasis
#

sure whatever

solid frigate
timber falcon
#

its a bsic set. nothing special tbh, just set up and sweep

#

rayquaza can do that

molten oasis
#

when i come back im sticking with zac btw so you'll rarely see me do nothing unique

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

oh the big thing with ray is just, dnite outclasses it imo

#

inner focus is so good

timber falcon
#

Btw is meteor beam pagos the only way to go.

solid frigate
#

I'm Still sticking With Terapagos cuz Kyogre Fall Off,Miraidon is too fast for my liking and Lunala is just- idk how to master trick room

molten oasis
#

lefties calm mind is the better set imo

#

i dont like getting walled by wide guard

timber falcon
#

I’m feeling stellar and earth power with prot and calm mind

molten oasis
#

thats standard

solid frigate
timber falcon
#

And maybe just maybe a partner that has feint

molten oasis
#

mienshao

solid frigate
timber falcon
#

I feel like Hitmon top actually here

#

Cause of intim

molten oasis
#

sure

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

i just think mienshao is better

timber falcon
#

Hitmon is the only one with intim+feint

#

Which I think is valuable for pagos

molten oasis
#

just run incin

#

and mienshao

#

you dont need that much compression in 1 mon

timber falcon
solid frigate
#

i used Incin and its good against Koraidon Teams when i fake out and set up calm Mind for Terapagos

#

heck i trolled a Koraidon team with Just Tornadus,Ogerpon and Amoonguss before

timber falcon
#

That’s some shit koraidon pilot then icl

#

Koraidon feels so hard to use for me idk why

#

I think it’s the only mon in comp that I’ve actually just given up in using for good

solid frigate
#

maybe i should add Tornadus but eh

molten oasis
#

ok, probably not gonna be in here for the rest of the day, i think i need to just not be in here lol

solid frigate
#

better version

Oh gotcha

solid frigate

you don't need to copy the Moves

#

well the last one anyways

fluid fiber
#

Any members of the team that don't seem viable or high-synergy or are all six good

solid frigate
#

I would Replace Chi Yu with Grimmsnarl for more bulk for Terapagos

fluid fiber
#

Flutter seems a bit off to me on the team but I'm not sure what I'd swap with

finally! an interesting team that isnt incin, urshifu, rillaboom etc etc

bitter heart
#

That’s what the 2 other pokemon slots are for poliwhirlkek

crystal pecan
#

I used a timid mint but charmanders nature didn't change

#

Is there a reason why

bitter heart
#

It doesn’t change the nature, only the stats

crystal pecan
#

M8 I read online it changes natures

#

Of like the mons

#

How the heck do people change the nature then?

bitter heart
#

You don’t

crystal pecan
#

I heard people can change if a Pokemon is like adamant or careful for example

bitter heart
#

The nature is set in stone and can never be changed. Mints only change the stat increase/decrease from it

crystal pecan
#

Ooh I think I understand now

#

I'm sorry this is my first time

#

Still trying to get used to it all yk?

I have been getting destroyed by teams with regidrago any advice ?

Regidrago? Haven’t heard of it in a while

foggy lodge
#

Teams with TR and Tailwind at the same time

#

(obviously not setting both at the same time, but having two ways to make Regidrago move faster

#

Things like snarl can help a lot

timber falcon
#

Most effective way to deal with it is just fairy types tbh, throws it off

foggy lodge
#

Tera Fairy Assault Vest Regidrago

#

The goal is to make it stop using dragon energy, foamy types will do that, enabling chip

timber falcon

It’s mid without dragon energy

foggy lodge

Play it slow

timber falcon
#

All it takes is like one good hit to mitigate its damage output tbh

foggy lodge
#

What other moves it uses?

timber falcon
#

Flash canon, earth power, Draco sometimes pulse I think

fluid fiber

Alt use fake out and a hit that's neutral to both Dragon and Steel or even better a CC to force a lose lose

fluid fiber

Fighting type ^

#

Mienshao sweeps

timber falcon
#

Sweeps Regidrago?

fluid fiber
#

Wide guard, CC, fake out

#

It's really hard to deal with it if it has a reliable partner

#

Like a flutter

timber falcon
#

Fake out isn’t gonna help much but I can see wide guard helping

fluid fiber
#

Fake out leads to Flutter being able to clean up under TR still

foggy lodge
#

Giraffe

timber falcon
#

Deedee will be there half the time

fluid fiber
#

I mean sure but at that point you have 4 other slots

timber falcon
#

It’s normally torn and deedee on the team

#

They make it work

fluid fiber
#

Hmm

#

CC, wide guard, and a partner with spread like dazzling

#

Carry an Incin for knock off pressure too

timber falcon
#

Wide guard is enough tbh

#

Then chip with whatever else u have

Can I just give another shoutout to Mienshao? I’ve been sleeping on this mon

cyan smelt
#

mienshao and caly-i is busted

fluid fiber
#

How's sableye compared to grimm?

cyan smelt
#

can't get faked out so it has that going for it but it's frailer

fluid fiber
#

Hmm

cyan smelt
#

has gravity too

fluid fiber
#

Was thinking quash could be really solid

timber falcon
#

Sabelye is more annoying I’d say, grim is just hard to get rid of

cyan smelt
#

flutter deals with sableye pretty easily

timber falcon
#

Yeah but sabelye ALWAYS gets to do something

#

U can’t stop it from impacting the game at all, it might screen, protect + disable

#

At least you can FO grim

fluid fiber
#

What set would you run

timber falcon
#

252/156/100

#

Pretty basic, moves are versatile

upbeat quail
#

Mienshao+Groudon is also a good pick. Feint and Coaching enables Groudon to clap

timber falcon

That’s okay. Heat crash kills torn.

#

Yeah spatckers hitting hard these days

upbeat quail
#

Yeah rain dance does mess things up a bit. I usually run my support flutter against opposing torns just in case. Taunt and icy wind is nice

#

…actually idk why I just don’t run a torn. I’d have a second sun setter that way

he's in the showdown vgc room, he's been set on using ape lol

Who me or Chance

#

If it's me, then brother
Chance been playing Comfey Ape for a MINUTE
And as for me

cyan smelt
#

chance i meant

bold geode
#

But no, Chance Hinds has been on that Comfey Ape stuff for a HOT MINUTE now
I've seen him use it in countless Limitless tournaments throughout Reg F and he won a Reg G tour I hosted with a team that had Lugia in Goltres spot

#

Teams not bad, it's just like 2 facts

  1. Not a lot of upfront damage pressure if any
  2. You sometimes have to pull wins out your ass, especially if you lose your "raid boss" early on
cyan smelt
#

annihilape can be busted if you take enough damage lol

bold geode
#

Yeah, but people often ignore it cuz of that
That's a very easy work around tbh
Which Chance in Game 1 considered and actually played out for too, being the reason why he Glided twice into his side slot

cyan smelt
#

does he run bulk up ape or not

bold geode
#

Yup

#

Comfey Ape runs Bulk Up or usually it does with this style team

#

The initial goal is to create a literal raid boss that is crazy hard to remove
And Comfey helps with that a bunch

cyan smelt
#

oh yeah that's another thing i gotta watch out for in reg g, comfey terapagos

bold geode
#

Oh yeah

#

But Comfey Terapagos is scary
Comfey Ape is definitely like a play around lmao

IT's such a weird concept to me that Yotam is friends with Wolfe

timber falcon
#

A they different or something?

#

Just seem like they have vgc in common

mighty stump
#

Yeah but realistically top VGC players are in different friend groups/circles

#

and typically

#

You can't just easily get in touch and stay in a hotel room with Wolfe and Justin Carris

timber falcon
#

Guess that makes sense

timber falcon
#

Fast 🧹

#

It still OHKOs incin btw

#

All i got rn are flare blitz, collision, and u turn

#

The last move is tricky

#

dragon claw?

Yeah I was thinking of it, but then gain more from breaking swipe

Prio spam has far died down already

Every team running the strongest Ghost-type in the game paired with Psychic Terrain or Farigiraf

knotty mirage
#

I seen alot of rayquaza e speed recently

mighty stump
#

Define a lot

timber falcon
#

I struggle with tailwind teams using korai

timber falcon
mighty stump
#

Cause ive seen like 3 Rayquazas across 300+ games

timber falcon
#

Yeah they’re pretty rare tbh

cyan smelt

is scarf for the caly-s and miraidon mus

knotty mirage
mighty stump
#

Caly-S/Miraidon/Kyogre/Groudon

timber falcon
#

I see caly-ice and mienshao pretty often too

#

Also is eruption groudon viable

mighty stump
#

no lol

timber falcon
#

Yeah cause I lost to it

#

Was just thinking if I could use

#

Also is it worth learning how to play different play styles

#

Cause I really struggle playing HO

#

And it’s a problem

mighty stump
#

Yea its worth lol

timber falcon
#

But how do I get better

#

I literally failed to utilise caly-s

#

Which isn’t a good start

#

Cause isn’t the things you consider different?

mighty stump
#

Lol

#

You play different playstyles to understand the strengths and weaknesses of every archetype/mon and how they all interact and what are the options that work and don't work against you

timber falcon
#

Hmm so I should try them all is what ur saying

#

To understand them

mighty stump
#

If you stick with only one archetype it's just more difficult to understand the perspective of your oppopnents lol

timber falcon
#

Oh yeah, what does archetype actually mean?

#

I know what it’s supposed to represent, (I think)

#

It’s things like Tingp2 right

ember linden
mighty stump
#

Terapagos is free

#

So good

ember linden
#

I got that part lol

timber falcon
#

Tofu runs the meteor beam one right

ember linden
#

Yeah

timber falcon
#

What happens when wide guard

mighty stump
#

Who said I tera'd?

timber falcon
#

Oh the plan isn’t to tera?

dull ibex
#

Honestly learning balance instead of hardcore relying on hyper offense helped me alot I think?

timber falcon
dull ibex
#

Learning archetypes isn't concrete rules either helped

#

Offensive balance is fantastic fun

mighty stump
knotty mirage
dull ibex
#

I was shown I can still play as aggressive as I want to play but have access to slower play as well

timber falcon
timber falcon
#

It’s why my 2 teams are lunala and zama, respectively bulky but hit hard

dull ibex
#

It was pulling teeth to get me to get it though ngl

#

I need to play teams that have a video guide on how to use them

#

I like teams that also revolve gameplans around one or two mons that come to most every game

#

It's very nice to have some stuff simplified a tiny bit

timber falcon
dull ibex
#

What one or two mons?

timber falcon
#

Yeah

dull ibex
#

No alot of teams are very free-form

timber falcon
#

Oh?

dull ibex
#

And nuanced, vgc is a brutally hard game imo at a higher level

timber falcon
#

Even in the restricted format?

#

Free form

dull ibex
#

Free form in your gameplan

#

They can be.

timber falcon
#

Oh I never knew that

mighty stump
dull ibex
#

I cant speak on singles and how hard jt is tbh

timber falcon
#

Singles is hell

#

So I left to doubles

dull ibex
#

I assume it's just pokemon is a deceptively complex game at a high level

timber falcon
mighty stump
#

not really either

#

Some winning teams were picked up 3 nights before lol

timber falcon
#

Wait what

dull ibex
#

Yeah

#

Hasn't Wolfe had a few very last minute teams

timber falcon
#

I’ll never be able to team build like that GengarSad

dull ibex
#

Not with that mindset

#

But also you kinda don't need too

timber falcon
#

No no one day I do plan on going to a regional

#

It’s one of my ā€œlife goalsā€ if you might say

mighty stump
#

I think

#

A lot of the things that hold people back

#

Is a lot of the mental attitude they approach the game with

#

And poor habits that they do not think is "a big deal"

timber falcon
#

Like what

dull ibex
#

Never using the safe play

#

🤚

mighty stump
#
  • Black and white thinking
  • "It works so it's fine"
  • "Wow this shit is so cheese it's so stupid"
dull ibex
#

Blaming the game is a giant obstacle I've seen alot of people here in the past block

mighty stump
#

Letting bias insist upon their opinions

dull ibex
#

Not stopping to think is one imo

#

Knee jerk reactions that lead to sloppy plays āœ‹

#

Of course I've seen players who are quite competent at playing but just don't see it because of insecurity that sucks to see.

mild wolf
#

If you go tera ice, do you gain the boosts from snow?

mighty stump
#

You do.

timber falcon
mighty stump
#

This sucks, this is better

#

It's just opinion vomit

#

Without any room for discussion or thinking

#

And a lot of you are very guilty of it

timber falcon
#

Ok so I should’ve say/think something is bad?

#

Unless I have experience with it

mighty stump
#

You shuold be able to back up every opinion you have with reasonings

timber falcon
#

Ok ok, and I’m assuming the cheese one is the bias against mons like caly-s

mighty stump
#

Doesn't matter

timber falcon
#

Oh ok

#

When team building, how do you know which set benefits you the most?

#

Cause in Orlando i saw AV Ursh and banded Ursh, what stopped them from using the most common sets? I know they were very good mons in the end. But what’s the reasonings.

mighty stump
#

It's all micro-adjustments

#

Maybe youu need the extra damage in a single turn

#

Maybe you need the survivability and flexibility

timber falcon
#

Ok so it’s what you prefer

#

Rather than what’s used most

#

I think one of my mistakes is ALWAYS going basic and most used sets then, maybe I need to switch things up

mighty stump
#

Anyways Terapagos gaming while testing

#

in Bo3, 19-4 in sets atm

mighty stump
#

Again, at the end of the day it's all about reasoning

timber falcon
#

I know but I usually don’t even think about how the set helps

#

Just ā€œok now thisā€ cause I assume it works

mighty stump
#

Like i've been saying

#

You need to be able to have relevant reasonings behind your choices

timber falcon

Got it

6 for 8 with this team

To OHKO

polar nest
timber falcon
# polar nest 6W 2L

Oh ok that’s pretty good, even though I’d still take moth off that team

polar canyon
#

It kinda has that urshifu situation where tera water is good enough defensively

timber falcon
#

No not really, it’s a rain team with iron moth

polar canyon
#

What

polar nest
#

rain?

#

its not rain team

timber falcon
#

I mean u got torn and shifu, is it a sun team?

polar nest
#

no

polar canyon
#

Actually a team with urshifu water and thundy t might as well be a rain team

polar canyon
#

Just take off the moth and you're set

polar nest
#

not a weather team

upbeat quail
#

So I’m struggling to figure out if I wanna run AV on incin and meadow plate on Rilla so I can drop High horsepower for taunt.

timber falcon
polar nest
timber falcon
#

Where’s the synergy

polar nest
polar canyon
#

What does moth do that you can't do with like chi yu + flutter

polar nest
polar nest
#

when miraidon becomes legal it will be a better team

polar canyon
#

I get using something because it's one of your favorites but at least use it in a way it's justified over something else

polar nest
#

but reg g isnt out

#

i just kinda threw a bunch a built mons together that i thought would work and it is kinda working lol

polar canyon
#

4 attacks lefties iron leaves?

#

Tera poison?

polar nest
#

i should use av shouldnt I

polar nest
timber falcon
#

Use av if no prot

polar canyon
polar nest
#

cuz grass psychic is a mess

polar canyon
#

And also what's av helping you survive

timber falcon
polar nest
#

yea true

polar canyon
#

If you're gonna use it might as well use sash or life orb

polar nest
#

ok

timber falcon
#

More like what does iron leaves do for the team

polar canyon
#

It's going for high damage with quark drive boosted e terrain boosted psyblade

polar nest
#

yea

polar canyon
#

So I'd say orb or sash

polar nest
#

i put sash

timber falcon
#

Sash looks good

polar canyon
#

Sash because like everything in the meta can hurt it a lot

timber falcon
#

Especially both calys

polar nest
#

yea thats why i put tera poison so it cant get hurt as bad

polar canyon
#

Calyrex other calyrex lunala zacian koraidon

timber falcon
polar canyon
#

And both calyrex can still hurt poison well

timber falcon
#

Run an offensive Tera, it’s sash anyway

polar nest
#

tru

polar canyon
#

You can still use a more defensive tera

timber falcon
#

Like what

polar nest
#

i think i might stick poison

polar canyon
#

Use an offensive tera if you know what ohkos you're picking up only with tera

polar nest
#

ok hmm tera grass or psychic?

timber falcon
#

Doesn’t have to be either

yea good sp def

timber falcon
polar nest
#

yea thats why i run poison

timber falcon
#

I think dark helps

polar nest
#

kinda like exeggutor

timber falcon
#

Dark Tera night slash

polar canyon
#

Still getting hit by expanding force and high horsepower from calyrex

#

Precipice blades from heat crash groudon

polar nest
#

expanding wont hit tho

timber falcon
#

He’s talking poison Tera

polar nest
#

ah

#

i have sacred sword for archaludon

polar canyon
#

You don't really need it to resist most types that poison resists

#

It's like just bug really

timber falcon
#

Poison Tera doesn’t help it at all does it

polar nest
#

yea and bug types...

#

yea

timber falcon
#

Oh yeah quad, what big type move is there that is used

polar canyon
#

It resists grass, fighting, poison

#

All types leaves is obviously weak against

polar nest

so either dark or fighting

polar nest

i do kinda want to tho hmm

polar canyon
#

But not by too much

timber falcon
#

But why, reasoning

polar canyon
polar nest
#

terrain boosted psyblade and i do want some spore immunity

It doesn't hit a lot that miraidon doesn't already hit

Move: Electric Terrain

For 5 turns, the terrain becomes Electric Terrain. During the effect, the power of Electric-type attacks made by grounded Pokemon is multiplied by 1.3 and grounded Pokemon cannot fall asleep; Pokemon already asleep do not wake up. Grounded Pokemon cannot become affected by Yawn or fall asleep from its effect. Camouflage transforms the user into an Electric type, Nature Power becomes Thunderbolt, and Secret Power has a 30% chance to cause paralysis. Fails if the current terrain is Electric Terrain.

rilla wouldnt make sense

hello I return

polar canyon
#

Hey

polar nest
#

kingambit defeats psychic mons

polar canyon
#

I think you have to look at groudon

polar nest
#

isnt he restricted tho?

polar canyon
#

I thought you were planning for restricted

polar nest
#

yea

#

but i alr have miraidon

polar canyon
#

You have to plan for groudon

polar nest
#

ah

timber falcon
#

3 ground weaknesses

#

and only one mon who call effectively kill a ground type

polar nest
#

i think i need a grass type

timber falcon
#

groudon has a field day

polar canyon
#

Ogerpon helps

timber falcon
#

why is tornshifu on this team

polar nest
#

torn for speed control urshi is the ground counter

timber falcon
#

which one

polar canyon
#

Stellar/dragon scarf draco meteor can ohko non av groudon

polar canyon
polar nest
#

tru

timber falcon
#

and rain is a no go, cause moth is the centre of the team

polar nest
#

my thought was solar beam venu

timber falcon
#

but u aint running sun

polar nest
#

but if my opponent runs sun

polar canyon
#

And if you run sun might as well run groudon or koraidon yourself with a booster speed heat wave moth

timber falcon
polar nest
#

yea

grizzled bronze
timber falcon
polar nest
#

ok rebuilding time

polar canyon
#

That does mean you need a new lando answer

polar nest
#

yea

#

hmm groudon or koraidon

#

i think ill use groudon

timber falcon
#

so is it s sun team now?

polar nest
#

i think imma do that yea

timber falcon
#

why gorudon though, over koriadon

polar nest
#

is koraidon better?

timber falcon
#

its not about better, what helps moth

polar nest
#

ah

#

i dont think i need acid spray anymore

timber falcon
#

groudon helps better (moths weaknesses) , but just look into things when building

polar canyon
polar nest
#

ok

timber falcon
#

that works

polar canyon
#

Like worse chi yu

timber falcon
#

but chi-yu doesnt get acid spray, so a different mon

polar canyon
#

Chi yu passively boosts flutters damage

timber falcon
#

i know, but both mons in these cases do different things, chi-yu also makes flutter weaker we cant forget that

polar nest
#

maybe i should run a proto user?

timber falcon
#

i means its a sun team so yeah it benefits

polar canyon
#

Yeah

polar nest
#

flutter, or one of the legends

polar canyon
#

Bolt is good

polar nest
#

im thinking wake would be good

polar canyon
#

Hurts kyogre

#

Keep in mind that kyogre is pretty dangerous

polar nest
#

maybe bolt and wake?

#

yea

polar canyon
#

I think just bolt is good

timber falcon
#

moth and bolt lose to ground

polar nest
#

yea maybe wake and a grass type?

#

cuz wake can at least function in rain

timber falcon
#

for this reg, snarl ting lu is good right

polar nest
#

solar beam on moth?

Why does Koraidon has protect choice band?

amber radish
polar canyon
#

The answer is probably dragapult tho

foggy lodge
#

Lilligant-H with focus sash so it doesn't get erased by everything

mighty stump
#

? Why are you running Sleep Talk + Dragon Tail?

#

This sounds extremely inefficient

polar nest
foggy lodge
amber radish
amber radish
#

im doing singles btw

foggy lodge
#

i didn't know that

polar canyon
#

Dragon tail without negative priority would be way too good

mighty stump
#

Unless it's a Fairy? or Sleep Talk doesn't pick Dragon Tail

foggy lodge
#

Ah that explains why those are bad moves

polar canyon
#

Forcing an opponent out before they move would just make them not move + take damage

#

And being able to do that nonstop

#

Would be broken

polar nest
#

ok

amber radish
#

Hol up If sleep talk selects a move with 90% accuracy is there still a chance it misses or will it hit since sleep talk is 100% accuracy?

polar canyon
#

It misses

#

Sleep talk fissure snorlax would be pretty damn good otherwise

Av isn't really a thing you can slap on any pokemon like you think it is

It's easy to think that

hmm ok

polar nest
#

so what should i run on koraidon?

Those are sure picks to the team i think

Scarf, band, life orb

A Tornadus to have speed control with tailwind and can set sunny day with priority

Clear amulet or scarf on koraidon are probably the best choices
