And try to run a staller Eternatus in a tournament where you have to play atleast 7 rounds

Your head just can't

[mighty stump]

Well

Theres a better set

The correct set

[foggy lodge]

Just an offensive one?

[mighty stump]

Basically

PHerb Mbeam

[solid frigate]

only that set is approved

we only like it

[rustic mountain]

stall eternatus sucks

[long narwhal]

https://pokepast.es/24da2e484cf40ae6 what shoud i change (singles) ubers

[rustic mountain]

not many singles players here

most of us play vgc

[long narwhal]

But any sugestions?

[rustic mountain]

how can i make suggestions of a format/meta i have no idea on?

[long narwhal]

I wanted to add fire ogerpon but idk where he can fit

[long narwhal]

Idk mb😰

[rustic mountain]

no ur good

i jus mean like, it wouldnt be helpful

u try smogon server?

thats much more singles based

[long narwhal]

Idk how smogon server works

Like do i get notified when someone answers?

[rustic mountain]

not unless they ping u

[long narwhal]

I am mobile

[rustic mountain]

idt that matters?

[long narwhal]

Can you send me the link?

Idk how to get there

[rustic mountain]

[molten oasis]

https://pokepast.es/9aca11c01286c7dd thoughts on a 6th?

[cyan smelt]

Speed control?

[molten oasis]

what kind

[cyan smelt]

Probably not tr

[bold geode]

Or is he

[rustic mountain]

[polar canyon]

Is tera stellar blast really working?

And I'd say redirection

[solid frigate]

well....

not really

[polar canyon]

It sounds pretty versatile for dealing with defensive teras

But that also means you can't use one yourself

[solid frigate]

it is but i don't really seen someone used it

[polar canyon]

Actually I think I'd use farigiraf

Not just for tr control but because the team looks kinda vulnerable to fake out spam but maybe it's just me

Like rilla to incin switching

[cyan smelt]

I think I need to get a terapagos plush

[solid frigate]

same

[cyan smelt]

I need to know when pokemon centre is launching in Australia

[solid frigate]

idk when in UK?

[cyan smelt]

Don't they have a UK pokemon centre

At least an online one

[solid frigate]

idk

i have to change my Terapagos just for the one Tera raid(Moves)

[molten oasis]

yes

also what redirection is really an option

clef doesnt really do too much and amoonguss stacks too many weaknesses

in all seriousness im not running pachirisu or furret

[mighty stump]

Well

What MUs have you accounted for

[solid frigate]

i mean Pachirisu is fine against Mirai

[mighty stump]

At minimum you should already cover the Big 4

[molten oasis]

terapagos yes, mirai yea, korai yes, zama, uhhhhh

yea wait that was the point of sd hearth

[solid frigate]

Caly Ice*

[molten oasis]

yea, incin

[foggy lodge]

I mean

I think it lacks of special attack

[molten oasis]

uhm, caly s can be handled with shifu

and incin, and rilla

rain is fine

rilla shifu can handle that one

uhm, yea idk

[foggy lodge]

And what about just running Follow me on Ogerpon and a Gholdengo to help on the Zama MU

[molten oasis]

...

[solid frigate]

I guess I covered Zamazenta and Miraidon

Caly Ice idk

[molten oasis]

the point was to run sd hearth

not follow me hearth

[mighty stump]

Imo

In that case

You run Focus Energy over SD

[molten oasis]

Oh

Right, it gets that

Magerna Flash backs

[tender turret]

guys

[solid frigate]

?

[tender turret]

how can I make a viable team with a galarian slowbro

I dont care if its just a trickroom team or gimmicky, I just really wanna mess around with it

[solid frigate]

its gotta be tr

[tender turret]

which pokemon would u recommend me?

Im thinking farigiraf, blood moon, incineroar, amoonguss and sm else

[solid frigate]

It could work,i think Calyrex Ice Rider is a good restricted for this team

[tender turret]

I don have it

:''''u

[solid frigate]

oh...

[tender turret]

nor shadow rider, Ion have the dlc on swsh

[tender turret]

IKKKKK

[solid frigate]

thats gonna be a pain in the ass now

i mean there is Lunala

[tender turret]

I mean I would think a spectrier would kinda work

[tender turret]

yeah, that too

[solid frigate]

Lunala can be a Tailwind and trick room mon

so it works for it

[tender turret]

yeah good point

so how about lunala for tr and tailwind, as well as farigiraf

how about the lunala's tera tho?

[solid frigate]

Tera Fairy

But i would recommend Lunala to just be Trick Room

[tender turret]

then what moveset on the damn giraffe>

[solid frigate]

Trick Room,Psychic,Dazzling Gleam and either Protect or Helping Hand

[tender turret]

That on which one?

the farigiraf?

https://pokepast.es/c2f753b6c55755f9
Here's what you got rn with the changes you wanted

[solid frigate]

Damn it Monke lol

[tender turret]

okokokokokok

which one do I look

:''''''u

[bold geode]

Probably both the same lol

[solid frigate]

mine is kinda different to its set

[bold geode]

Oh you fixed the sets lmao

I just did 1:1

[solid frigate]

yeah usually if i help someone i just fix their sets

[bold geode]

Also Zekrom should have Fusion Bolt and Breaking Swipe tbh

[solid frigate]

i think the team on paper is fine,its just the moveset

[solid frigate]

could be great options

[rustic mountain]

u @ me as if i dont watch most of these games

[solid frigate]

[tender turret]

so instead of dragon claw and bolt strike those two?

[solid frigate]

you can try B-Strike and D-Claw or F-Bolt and B-Swipe

depends on your personal choice

[tender turret]

I wanna be as offensive as possible

So F bolt and swipe?

[solid frigate]

i mean if you care about not landing the attacks,then yes

[tender turret]

FOK na

Im going for the safe route then

[solid frigate]

if you don't give a shit about missing then B strike and D-Claw

[tender turret]

I hate missing attacks

[solid frigate]

sure

go for it

[tender turret]

thank you so much for improovin g my team

I really appreciate it

[bold geode]

LEMME HAVE MY MOMENTS LMAO

[tender turret]

lots of love for you big guy

[rustic mountain]

it was a good game

[solid frigate]

ey,Monke did also suggest the safe option for Zekrom

so yeah he helped as well

[molten oasis]

alr, i like the team rn

[rustic mountain]

monke aint do shit

[tender turret]

THANK YOU BOTH

[molten oasis]

like, feels good into, normal things

[solid frigate]

he did suggest Fusion Bolt and Breaking Swipe instead of more riskier approach of Bolt Strike and D-Claw

[molten oasis]

i do think no redirection is really annoying cuz wisp is kind of a problem

[rustic mountain]

me reminding torrent im joking:

[solid frigate]

told ya i can't take jokes

[molten oasis]

mostly from incin

[solid frigate]

i mean tbf,your Ogerpon is for Killing Zama so its fair if you don't have Ogerpon for Redirection

[molten oasis]

yea

and the 1 time someone requested for ots i won so, i think thats a good sign

[solid frigate]

its a start,i think you can get in the hang of it

[molten oasis]

hopefully

from here its bo3's with friends

[solid frigate]

meanwhile me,idk i kinda just stick with Chi Yu Cresselia Tornadus core with Amoonguss support

[molten oasis]

to practice specific mu's

like i'd like to practice, everything but mostly into like, koraidon terapagos and miraidon

[solid frigate]

i think i am good enough to use my new team for it

[molten oasis]

although i am considering not doing glide on hearth, kinda like wood hammer for big grass damage

[solid frigate]

if you want to ask for Terapagos MU,i'm always here

[molten oasis]

kk

i think im done for the day but maybe tomorrow

[solid frigate]

sure

i might stay for 15 minutes and then go to bed

[molten oasis]

shit i gotta get a new torn lol

although i am iffy on it

it has rain dance which im not really too fond of

and bleakwind is a move that hates me

that and i'd like redirection

cuz wisp is ticking me off

nvm i fixed it, taunt incin, ez

[solid frigate]

oh yeah you traded one for me lol

[dawn crown]

I asked AI for a VGC team an it gave me psyspam 😭

[solid frigate]

tell me the sauce

i couldn't figure it out

[forest arrow]

I’ll send you vid in DMs

[molten oasis]

cuz i wasn't sure how to install it

also not the dracovish lol

[forest arrow]

Bet that should get you going

[timber falcon]

AV groudon ain’t clicking like I thought it would

People simply just, work their way around it

[mighty stump]

Lol

[cyan smelt]

Groudon is washed

[timber falcon]

It really is washed

But I ain’t done just yet, I’ve got one more team idea

[patent marsh]

How much speed EVs do people usually put into Whimsicott

[cyan smelt]

probably just enough to outspeed 252 timid torn?

[valid narwhal]

Ugh, y'all, is battle bond greninja banned in SV ranked battles???? If so, why??????

[knotty mirage]

Battle bond greninja never allowed on any ranked battle to begin with so yeah

[valid narwhal]

Ughhhh that's so annoying, thanks for telling me

[solid frigate]

i mean idk

[cyan smelt]

I miss galarian darmanitan too

[willow vault]

because people usually run focus sash sd

[wet wedge]

Also that's the hitmonlee set, not the lucha

[south shuttle]

lucha can run that too?

I know it can use it, my point is ive never seen anyone use it lmao

[south shuttle]

i mean lucha is just better with acrobatics

[wet wedge]

Well yeah it runs acro

[south shuttle]

oh

[wet wedge]

Mine is sd cc acro tpunch

[south shuttle]

you should play my ou team then

[wet wedge]

This was an UU match but sure if you want to?

[south shuttle]

singles right?

[wet wedge]

Yea

[south shuttle]

my lucha runs iron head instead of tpunch

for fairy types

[wet wedge]

Fair enough too lol

[wet wedge]

Are you Tera Steel tho?

Otherwise it's not worth it

STAB 110 > non-STAB supereffective 80

[south shuttle]

i think im tera fighting for the higher damage on reversal

[wet wedge]

Pretty viable too lol

You wanna play one?

[south shuttle]

im prob gonna swap out iron head for upper hand

[south shuttle]

idk up2 u

dracovish not geting fiscious rend until lvl 63 cost me the run

[autumn vault]

Damn

[graceful flare]

Mhm

[round turret]

Anyone have good supports for a Rayquaza team?

[willow vault]

Trick room teams aren’t ready for me to use whirlwind volcarona with rilla to prevent Trick room unless they are then well I’m cooked

[willow vault]

Probably chien-pao for damage increase, Incin is always nice, Urshifu-R helps with steel types and rock types and either amoongus or rillaboom for a fwg core

[round turret]

Do I use Urshifu-R with an offensive set or do I use something else

[timber falcon]

i think dark ursh better tbh, unless u have other ways of denying farig

[willow vault]

Offensive

[timber falcon]

cause u really do want farig dead

[willow vault]

Yeah I mean farigiraf does not like Incineroar

[timber falcon]

true, or maybe crunch pao

[willow vault]

And doesn’t want to eat a surging strikes

[timber falcon]

but can do so comfortably

[willow vault]

I’d argue lash out is better, deals with drops

Who uses Goth in reg G?

[timber falcon]

some ppl

i mean it can work, as a mon to deny switches

[round turret]

So with an offensive Urshifu-R, what else would be good in a Rayquaza team, would glimmora?

I have a suicide glimmora that's for spikes and memento if I need it

[timber falcon]

i doubt ull need that

[round turret]

What general scope of Pokemon would go well with Ray Ray

He just said it 🤦

This is all you're getting from me

[solid frigate]

https://pokepast.es/769502e7145e7ff8

I have a decent Rayquaza team,you can try it out

Chien Pao is still always No.1 Partner for it

[solid frigate]

also like Isn't Chien pao can also Deal with Amoonguss and Rillaboom While also deal with Steel And Rock Types as well?

[willow vault]

yes

[round turret]

Having to rebuild ogerpons every time I change is the bane of my existence 😔

[autumn vault]

Rayquaza can also deal with the grass types thanks to Dragon Ascent

[solid frigate]

yep

[round turret]

Also thank you all for your help, even tho I did ask the same question like 3 times lol

[autumn vault]

Then get several ogerpons, thats what i did

[round turret]

How do I get multiple

[solid frigate]

i don't i always just stick with one ogerpon and use the same stats

[autumn vault]

Safe files or Trading

[round turret]

Do those stats work with ogerpon-h

[autumn vault]

I have a Hearthflame and Wellspring, i am planning to get a 3rd one for Cornerstone and ignore teal mask ogerpon

Also just for a reference, what pokeball matches entei the best? I gotta go catch an entei

[solid frigate]

i honestly don't know

[round turret]

Fair enough

[solid frigate]

Repeat Ball?

[round turret]

Maybe

It's fast ball or repeat ball

Now to get my sleep team ready so I can do this correctly

[solid frigate]

usually i don't care that much but yeah those maybe and what sleep team-

[round turret]

It's what I call my Pokemon catching team

[solid frigate]

oh

[round turret]

Basically lunala and a op physical attacker with false swipe

And other things to stall out time

[solid frigate]

ok cool

[craggy dagger]

what are we cooking-?

[solid frigate]

cooking Terapagos Team for me

[craggy dagger]

ah

[solid frigate]

currently doing well with Chi Yu+Cresselia on Terapagos

[craggy dagger]

[round turret]

[solid frigate]

?

[solid frigate]

[round turret]

Terapagos teams are a W

I love the turtle

[solid frigate]

https://pokepast.es/7839aef0d018e29e

I just Used Chi Yu Cresselia Terapagos Core

[craggy dagger]

3 legends

[solid frigate]

Sure but they are effective

[round turret]

It could be worse, it could be 6

[solid frigate]

but its effective

I kinda don't really think Urshifu is a Legendary

More like an Overpowered Pokemon

[round turret]

I like to think ogerpon is just a cutie that may or may not nuke a civilization if left alone for too long

[solid frigate]

Both DLC Legendaries (Ogerpon and Terapagos) are better in Story compare to Urshifu and Calyrex

at least Ogerpon and Terapagos are kinda Linked

[round turret]

But calyrex absolutely dominated competitive during SS along with Zacian-C

Urshifu dominated competitive during SV for a while

I think considering their track record, ogerpon is a op regular Pokemon, terapagos just got legal so i cant really say much with terapagos

[solid frigate]

Terapagos is Big 4 in SV

for restricted Pokemon

[round turret]

I see

Fair enough

[solid frigate]

the big 4 rn is Calyrex Ice rider,Miraidon,Terapagos and Zamazenta

[round turret]

A

I see why theres only one allowed

One restricted Pokemon

[solid frigate]

mhm

and these are big 4 rn

[graceful flare]

Bro showdown is just boring imo

[timber falcon]

https://pokepast.es/1b6735bc8deb3e4e ok so how is this core

[graceful flare]

The sv animations just male me like jt way more

Showdown feels just empty

[timber falcon]

im really tryna take my time and consideration with this groudon team

[solid frigate]

very interesting core indeed

[timber falcon]

womp womp

[solid frigate]

but i would use Booster for Support Flutter but then again you have Groudon

[timber falcon]

for the 5th mon i am looking for support

maybe taunt

[graceful flare]

Imo I'd say booster is better than specs

Its 20 percent less but no drawback

[solid frigate]

Incin looks like a good Option,Ogerpon Cornerstone also works

[timber falcon]

it is a sun team

[graceful flare]

Oh yeah I forgor

[timber falcon]

speed booster comes with speed

[timber falcon]

im not big on incin, but cornerstone interests me

[solid frigate]

I saw some Taunt Ogerpon Cornerstone teams and they look decent

[solid frigate]

also you have a Grass cover for Kyogre as well

[timber falcon]

true true

to make it better, sturdy

[solid frigate]

mhm

i think final Pokemon can be Wake or Bolt but lemme think about it

[timber falcon]

bolt it on my thnking list, ive decided bolt idnt it for this tean already

[graceful flare]

How do I see usage rates on sv not showdown

[timber falcon]

a water type definitely would help

[graceful flare]

Palafi

[solid frigate]

wake is the only Mon that can use on Sun and Rain

[timber falcon]

[solid frigate]

Dude its not Reg C

[graceful flare]

Why did paladin fall off

[timber falcon]

activation is troublesome and power creep

[solid frigate]

Urshifu exists.

[timber falcon]

mainly shifu yeah

[graceful flare]

Yeah but hero fin is a restricted in terms of stets

[timber falcon]

u mean in singles

[solid frigate]

i guess wake can work as well with your team,its good on Sun and Rain

[timber falcon]

this is vgc, where u can double attack the palafin slot

[solid frigate]

so if its Rain,Wake can still work

[graceful flare]

Or just protect and make ur opps turn useless

[solid frigate]

Ahem Unseen Fist hello

also isn't most Palafin run Choice Band-

[graceful flare]

No

They run orb

[solid frigate]

@timber falcon Btw Wake would be my pick for your team

[timber falcon]

intimidate also stops water type moves

[timber falcon]

already in testing rn

[solid frigate]

cool

also isn't Ogerpon Wellspring can beat Palafin no problem-

if you want a Water Type in this Reg thats not Kyogre and Palkia

Just use Urshifu Rapid,Ogerpon Wellspring,Iron Bundle(Although a Bit Mid but still better than Palafin) and Walking Wake

Heck i even see someone use Gastrodon

[timber falcon]

ok did a few test runs, it works but i gotta figure out some MUs

and what to do's

[willow vault]

tbh for water types unless your running sun you should nearly always go for either Urshifu-r or Ogerpon-w. In sun walking wake is best but gastro has a niche aswell

[solid frigate]

cool i mean

gotta check on MUs,Wake is more for an emergency if you are in Rain

[timber falcon]

i am wondering weather i go for cornerstone or just rilla tbh

[solid frigate]

Urshifu:Hits through Protect and Oppressive
Ogerpon:Redirector and offense
Gastro:Support and tank
Iron Bundle:Support(Mostly

[timber falcon]

cause i do like the passive healing and terrain control + it also gets taunt

and Fo pressure

[solid frigate]

i mean does Grassy Terrain Nerfs Precipice Blades?

[timber falcon]

i dont think so

[dapper crag]

Move: Grassy Terrain

For 5 turns, the terrain becomes Grassy Terrain. During the effect, the power of Grass-type attacks used by grounded Pokemon is multiplied by 1.3, the power of Bulldoze, Earthquake, and Magnitude used against grounded Pokemon is multiplied by 0.5, and grounded Pokemon have 1/16 of their maximum HP, rounded down, restored at the end of each turn, including the last turn. Camouflage transforms the user into a Grass type, Nature Power becomes Energy Ball, and Secret Power has a 30% chance to cause sleep. Fails if the current terrain is Grassy Terrain.

maybe Rillaboom if you want

[willow vault]

Yep, just for team construction it’s far easier and more justifiable to put in Urshifu or Ogerpon and you use the other for select niches

[solid frigate]

i would say you team could be

Groudon
Flutter Mane
Tornadus
Entei
Ogerpon Cornerstone/Rillaboom
Walking Wake/Raging Bolt

[solid frigate]

mhm

[willow vault]

Also don’t use bundle, it’s not it even if encore spam is frustrating

[solid frigate]

i fought one and thanks to that move,My Terapagos is in +4

[gentle crag]

morrispxg456 has given 1 Gen Rep to crephace

[timber falcon]

[solid frigate]

damn it Rotom

[willow vault]

[solid frigate]

[willow vault]

Happened to me aswell but when your locked in calm mind the entire game including being forced to struggle it’s not so nice

[timber falcon]

idk why people just dont, swap in a strong physical attacker lol

[willow vault]

They killed all my other mons so I couldn’t kill it so they stalled me for too many turns

[willow vault]

All my other mons were dead

[timber falcon]

ah yes one of my favourite strats

isolation

murder friend so no trouble

[solid frigate]

i just rain down Hell to his Miraidon team

[willow vault]

I didn’t do it on purpose, I was outplayed and then they stalled me to give me depression

[timber falcon]

lol

atp just forfeit it aint worth ur time

[willow vault]

I technically could have won if they didn’t stall all my power points they couldn’t kill me, I had to kill me

[timber falcon]

usually the held item mostly for reshiram players in Reg G

[ebon cradle]

someone talk me out of playing a support tropius

wide guard, tailwind, helping hand, (insert attack)

[willow vault]

Don’t play tropics it’s inoptimal, if you want a good grass type amoongus, rillaboom and Ogerpon are better as supportive mons. If you want tailwind and wide guard use Pelipper.

[solid frigate]

don't play Royal Pear lol

[willow vault]

Unless your just playing for fun rather than to win then play what you want

[ebon cradle]

thank you this is what I needed

[gentle crag]

twiggs has given 1 Gen Rep to crephace

Move: Triple Axel

Hits three times. Power increases to 40 for the second hit and 60 for the third. This move checks accuracy for each hit, and the attack ends if the target avoids a hit. If one of the hits breaks the target's substitute, it will take damage for the remaining hits. If the user has the Skill Link Ability, this move will always hit three times.

hmmmmmmmm

[willow vault]

Interesting, so seems to be countering the Calyrex forms

As the primary focus

[solid frigate]

yeah

but then again Umbreon is a good Alternative if you think Chi Yu is Frail

[willow vault]

Might have to test it I haven’t tried it out yet

[solid frigate]

hmmmmm

[sharp cobalt]

Sleep Talk Choice Band Komala. Thoughts?

[willow vault]

Why would you ever choose komala?

[sharp cobalt]

You really think Id walk in here with that set and be serious?

[willow vault]

Knowing you, yes

[sharp cobalt]

But you dont know me

[willow vault]

Fair point

With how silly this chat often is yes, I expect that would be something asked seriously

[solid frigate]

lol

[sharp cobalt]

Its a funny meme set. I read about it somewhehre, I just dont know where

[willow vault]

I mean specs terapagos often run sleep talk

So a choiced locked mon with sleep talk isn’t a new concept

[sharp cobalt]

Ah, except, Komala can get any move with sleep talk

Terapagos needs to be asleep

[sharp cobalt]

Which is why choice sleep talk is superior on Komala

[autumn vault]

Basic is the set i normally use on Zekrom

I have been theorizing that Ape and Zekrom might be a good duo

[willow vault]

I chose the most reasonable option

[autumn vault]

Ape with Final Gambit one shots Zamazenta btw

Probably

[willow vault]

I’m just sad there is no specs option

[autumn vault]

Max HP Ape one shots max HP Zamazenta

And no Physical attacker likes Zama

[willow vault]

How will you deal with follow me, rage powder or them simply switching out for something else to take the final gambit?

[autumn vault]

Well bye bye to their support

[willow vault]

Then you lost of ape and zamazenta is still alive

[autumn vault]

Or i can use Ape later in the match to kill Zama before Zama spirals out of control

[willow vault]

Zekrom still gets walled out by zamazenta

[autumn vault]

So does nearly every physical attacker

Koraidon sees it as free food

[willow vault]

I mean you can try it but I’m not sure it’s going to be a consistent strat for you

[autumn vault]

I have been experimenting which mon is great with Zekrom

And Ape seems promising despite the weakness to fairy

And Obviously Amoonguss and Incineroar

[willow vault]

Ok just have fun when tailwind makes your annihilape slower and vulnerable meaning you die and don’t kill your opponent with final gambit

[autumn vault]

Torn and Jugulis are weak to Zekrom

And i can always get Tailwind on my team

Whim does look scary

[willow vault]

Still get tailwind up, by the point torn gets tailwind up your forced to take crazy damage which is no fun

[autumn vault]

But i have incin for a reason

[willow vault]

I mean good luck, cause your likely going to need it

[autumn vault]

Ok

Someone is busy with the PC so i can't do anything yet

[autumn vault]

'

[polar canyon]

Wondering what bolt set I should run

I want protect but want calm mind but want tbolt to hit kyogre through prio control

[cold bison]

how competative can you make a ghost only team?

what would it look like?

[solid frigate]

hmmmm

Caly S and idk Flutter?

[polar canyon]

Just know you'll have csr

[solid frigate]

Mono Teams are kinda

meh

[polar canyon]

In doubles it's much harder to monotype I think

[solid frigate]

yeah

[cold bison]

i am trying to make a singles team

[polar canyon]

Ah

What format

[cold bison]

VGC i think

[solid frigate]

So BSS?

[cold bison]

my bad SV

[willow vault]

so where you have 6 and you bring 3 mons?

[solid frigate]

idk i forgot

[willow vault]

none of us really play singles tbh

[solid frigate]

also Mono Ghost is hard to buiild

[cold bison]

thats fair I wanted to make this team to face some friends and use in a more casual competitive. I figured mono ghost wouldnt be that good.

[solid frigate]

its good but hard to build

[strange fjord]

la regionals this weekend! bout to go 1-x

[solid frigate]

consider Normal Mono is kinda good as well and Ursaluna Bloodmoon can hit Ghost Types

but for me,idk mono which one is better

[cold bison]

thats true. so far I have chandalure, and a dragapult

[willow vault]

Woooooooo

[cold bison]

but I wanted to try lunala, basculegion, spiritomb, Shadow rider calyrex

[strange fjord]

Zoroark Hisuian 👀

[cold bison]

ooh true forgot that I could get that in SV

[autumn vault]

Nice

Stay in a good mood and you can get great results

[cold bison]

I could also use a mimikyu

[solid frigate]

also Flutter Mane?

[cold bison]

thats probably better

thanks for the suggestions I just really like Ghost types 😅

[polar canyon]

Caly shadow is probably a top choice

[solid frigate]

i could make you a team of that

[polar canyon]

Basculegion sounds cool

I forgot about that guy

[cold bison]

that would probably help because I am new to competitive team building

[polar canyon]

Whats 92 speed bolt for exactly?

[solid frigate]

https://pokepast.es/1a1ce796cd1b5463 there

[cold bison]

thanks

looks way better than what I had 😅

[polar canyon]

That setup calyrex when dark types

You do not want protect for singles

Id even give it tera blast

[solid frigate]

i still have Doubles Moment

[polar canyon]

And recover over protect ghold

Scarf basculegion?

[solid frigate]

i used AV

[polar canyon]

Yeah it could be scarf

Especially for 3v3 too

You won't have to worry about its longevity with wave crash as much so you can just spam it

[cold bison]

thats true I have the scarf rn

[polar canyon]

Also you're like really dead to kingambit

Pretty sure that guys pretty solid in singles right?

[cold bison]

um i think so from what I have seen

wouldn't flutter help with that

[graceful flare]

Why do people run moon blas instead of dglea

On flter

[rough magnet]

It’s way stronger against single targets

[graceful flare]

It's only 15 points stronger

[rough magnet]

When a move hits two targets the damage is reduced to 75%

[solid frigate]

huge difference

[graceful flare]

Running another move Is an even bigger difference

[solid frigate]

dude i rather run Moonblast As primary attack and Dgleam for Secondary

Reduced 75% really impact on the damage

and 90 BP is very good

[autumn vault]

*95 BP

Its basically a 60 BP move that hits both opponents vs a 95 BP move with a secondary effect

And getting huge damage in a pinch is very useful

[cold bison]

Thank you so much for the help!

[polar canyon]

Also flutter does not 1v1 kingambit

[solid frigate]

tats even more better

[graceful flare]

How is dgleam 65 power it's 80

[cold bison]

would chandalure with terra grass/fire work

[graceful flare]

Oh I didn't see

[solid frigate]

and also i think it does not Kill Miraidon

100+ SpA Protosynthesis Flutter Mane Moonblast vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Miraidon: 192-228 (109.7 - 130.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Yeah even Booster Flutter Barely can kill it

[graceful flare]

That's cool and all but my mom's making me do science for third year and if I don't I have to repeat second year and that means I have to hang out with all the wierd first years that came in this year

[solid frigate]

100+ SpA Protosynthesis Flutter Mane Dazzling Gleam vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Miraidon: 120-144 (68.5 - 82.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

[solid frigate]

and what does it do with this situation?

[graceful flare]

Idk im just very sad abt it

It's probably gonna be very hard and I will have to quit all games entirely now

[craggy dagger]

[solid frigate]

[craggy dagger]

sounds like a skill issue to me

just study before you go play games?
like it’s not that hard-
finish al hw and like maybe an hour or two of studies and then play games or smth

heck i literally made Terapagos Rental in my Biology Exam and i got an A

[chrome knot]

me when finishing an hour of homework and having the next like 7 hours to game is a rough schedule

[graceful flare]

Bro it's science even if I study all day I'm gonna get maybe 50 if I'm lucky

[chrome knot]

bruh

[craggy dagger]

science is easy huh?

[chrome knot]

this that US education @craggy dagger

[graceful flare]

U sure I haven't done it but I've heard horror stories abt jt

[solid frigate]

i literally got an A last time in Exam

[willow vault]

Oh us education

[craggy dagger]

ohhhh true true

[chrome knot]

[craggy dagger]

i forgot they existed

education i mean-

[willow vault]

My uk brain was like a 50 is a C dependent on level of education

[craggy dagger]

95% equivalent in physics (IB)

[willow vault]

95% damn

[solid frigate]

eyyyyy

[solid frigate]

i think last time i get 95% higher is in Primary School

[graceful flare]

Bro even the Down syndrome kids in my class can do better on science than me

[craggy dagger]

something about electromagnetism?
idk that was easy though-

[willow vault]

I got a max mark on like 4 or 5 music papers at gcse

[craggy dagger]

just study more and pay attention in class instead

[solid frigate]

ok then thats a Skill Issue-

[willow vault]

Outside of music though I was a B/C student

[craggy dagger]

like-
that’s a proper skill issue if you’re not paying attention, studying, doing hw-

[graceful flare]

I have an sna with me at all times during class

I pay attention all the time but I forget everything abt 30 secs after she says it

[craggy dagger]

so wouldn’t that be easier-
you have someone who can explain stuff again-

[solid frigate]

exactly

[graceful flare]

Is tsareena good

For av

[willow vault]

If you forget so quickly why not write down notes so you have the information stored on paper if it won’t stay in your brain

[craggy dagger]

i’m also happy i don’t have physics anymore-
half of my classes just got vaporized out of existence

[graceful flare]

Writing down notes is crazy

[spiral ridge]

Same my phone is dying so fast just being on my phone all day

[craggy dagger]

so getting 50% in science is a skill issue got it

[solid frigate]

physics just sucks

[solid frigate]

Lmao

[craggy dagger]

IB classes end mid may so that’s half my classes just done :)

[spiral ridge]

Nice

[craggy dagger]

[craggy dagger]

How do I get into regional and worlds

[solid frigate]

regionals just apply and connect to your Account,Worlds you need at least 300 Championship Points

[polar canyon]

Getting to worlds is a long process of winning or placing high in multiple other tournaments

[polar canyon]

I thought it was 500

[graceful flare]

Do I go to the places were it's happening or do I need an invite

[solid frigate]

i forgot isn't like either both

[willow vault]

It’s 400 or 500 dependent on region I think

[polar canyon]

Go where it's happening and sign up

[solid frigate]

For Regionals Yes, but Worlds is invite

[polar canyon]

Damn which regions are 50 and which are 400?

[graceful flare]

Bro that's so messed up I can't fly to Jamaica to do a regional

[solid frigate]

welp,tough luck for Me cuz UK does not have It

[polar canyon]

I'm sure it has tiny things like premier challenges at least

[bold geode]

Aight boys

[polar canyon]

Wherever it is

[willow vault]

Ireland regionals championships winner is me

[bold geode]

Bitch what

[polar canyon]

I want to use cm bolt but want tbolt on it but also don't want only one type of move

[bold geode]

There isn't an Ireland regional lmao

[bold geode]

No Protect then I guess
Tofu did that

[polar canyon]

Cm double stab and thunderclap it is then

Now I figure out a spread

The only speed control I have is twave

[willow vault]

That’s not good

More speed control is extremely useful

[polar canyon]

I mean the team is in the slower end other than koraidon and scream tail

[solid frigate]

i might need to do some of these,But for actual Live Events my only shot is When they make Internationals in London

which i would be folded

[willow vault]

Same

My nearest tournaments for most games would be Bristol, but in like 1 and 1/2 weeks my nearest tournaments will be Brighton again

[polar canyon]

I'm fine with only being able to do premier challenges

[solid frigate]

i need to see if i can find local Tournaments in Manchester

[next stump]

100% there are locals in the UK, but there are no locals over the summer for any region

the season basically ends on June 9th

[willow vault]

Wooo no locals for me in Brighton then

[solid frigate]

DAMN IT ITS TCG

[polar canyon]

There's regionals for a lot of places

[willow vault]

Guess I gotta wait till like August / September back to Bristol

[polar canyon]

Even where I live there's regionals

[willow vault]

I checked out something to try find both pokemon and smash tournies my nearest is Bristol which isn’t to far

[next stump]

there was a liverpool regional and a london international

you guys are eating well in the UK
