You can't see schedules for events 2 months ahead right?

#

I can only find events for may

#

And june

solid frigate
#

yeah,both that i did not attend-

next stump
#

there won’t be any locals or regionals over the summer

#

so that’s probably why nothing comes up

willow vault
solid frigate
#

welp thats the only time i am free

polar canyon
willow vault
#

I’m in a tcg surrounded area

next stump
#

for some weird reason they always put a stop on any CP events for a couple months before worlds

#

probably so that no one earns an invite last minute

solid frigate
willow vault
#

I saw

solid frigate
#

also dawn Wings also Mentioned so noice

willow vault
#

It revealed the only strat meaning that more people will expect it making the surprise factor less strong

polar canyon
#

Last event in my country was in march

willow vault
#

Damn

polar canyon
#

I hope I can try something someday

solid frigate
#

i might need to build a different team if i do regionals

polar canyon
willow vault
#

huh uk really is blessed with tournies, I probably shouldn’t be complaining

polar canyon
#

Oh yeah you like terapagos

#

That's a good one

solid frigate
#

Terapagos and Dawn Wings might be my main ones

next stump
#

100% if you can ever attend a regional or international realistically, you should

solid frigate
#

Calm Mind Covert Cloak Balance and Power Herb Meteor Beam Trick Room

next stump
#

it makes playing the ladder seem like a completely different (and worse) game

solid frigate
#

yeah

polar canyon
solid frigate
#

i think Dawn Wings has Potential so i might use it

next stump
polar canyon
#

Lunala definitely has potential when it's double restricted

#

I wonder if it's already gonna be double restricted by the time summer ends

solid frigate
#

probably not but idk

#

but which Restricted do you think its high skill ceiling

polar canyon
#

I don't think skill ceilings are a thing as much as just some being harder to pilot

willow vault
#

As in played perfectly optimally the best?

polar canyon
#

Skill floors definitely exist

willow vault
#

I agree

polar canyon
#

Like the more op legends are definitely even more valuable and op when used by a low level player against another low level player

willow vault
#

Honestly I would be tempted to say terapagos, using Tera at the perfect timing has even more additional value for terapagos and it feels the most versatile of the restricted to me

solid frigate
polar canyon
#

I haven't seen terapagos in ladder in a surprisingly long time

polar canyon
willow vault
#

In all fairness I almost exclusively run into caly-I, Koraidon and Zamazenta

solid frigate
#

i did see some Terapagos

#

but yeah mostly Zama and Caly Ice

#

while some Miraidon

willow vault
#

The only times I see terapagos is when I use it

#

Oh yeah I see loads of miraidon I just wanted to forget those games

polar canyon
#

Who would've guessed that zamazenta would end up being one of the best legendaries this gen and surpassing zacian

#

Me

#

Because I saw that it got body press early

willow vault
#

Good for you

solid frigate
#

when i saw the moveset change i was like:Oh fu-

polar canyon
#

Honestly behemoth bash should have had the effect

#

And they just don't give it body press

solid frigate
#

true

#

also Terapagos with earth Power is better since zama and Miraidon

#

while also beating Tera Fire Koraidon

quasi cove
#

I don't see a casual battle discussion channel so ig I'll ask here.
The other night I tried using a legal volcanion in a casual double battle but it claimed that there was an issue with my volcanion. I removed it from my team and everything went fine. Is volcanion not allowed even in casual? I haven't been able to find a conclusive answer to this online.

And if volcanion Is restricted from online battles entirely, can it be used in link battles made through link codes?

molten oasis
#

Why have I been notified about entei and dusk mane

quasi cove
#

Are mythicals restricted entirely?

solid frigate
#

exactly

molten oasis
#

For vgc yes

solid frigate
#

Link Battles might allowed depends on the Ruleset

quasi cove
#

If standard rules set is put in for no dupe pokemon/items/all pkmn lvl 50, will it he allowed?

#

Be*

next stump
#

otherwise yeah maybe it’s just a mythical issue

solid frigate
#

Moxie Boosted:No one thinks Rayquaza is gonna be the most Busted Pokemon of all time.

Me:I mean i think Rayquaza Fans that does not know competitve would argue

molten oasis
solid frigate
#

looks great for now

molten oasis
#

Thoughts? Idk if I’m keeping torn it was just an add as I’m not 100% sure what the team needs rn

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

I can’t bring pelipper into any matches with ogerpon

solid frigate
#

cuz it depends if Koraidon is gonna Tera Fire

solid frigate
#

cuz Pelipper looks good aganist Koraidon Teams

#

and it can help Zacian to Survive Opposing Hearthflame

#

which Zacian Hates

polar canyon
#

I think it was that way mostly so you couldn't have transfer only moves

#

Now transfer moves are entirely gone

molten oasis
# solid frigate which Zacian Hates

Yea, I mean the sun mu relies on me baiting out the Tera from koraidon to either Tera stellar it out of the game or surging strikes with torn+rain

#

Idk, I need to practice the mu with someone

polar canyon
#

I have a korai team

solid frigate
#

if its Koraidon i can't help it cuz i am bad using it

polar canyon
#

But it's not finished

molten oasis
#

Not right now I’m going to work lol

polar canyon
#

I need to finish some evs and final details

#

I think I'm ditching the scarf on koraidon and redoing the ev spread

#

I might do life orb

#

Not worried about incin since the team has kingambit

#

But I am worried about incin

#

Because it has wisp

#

I think I'll vive gambit a lum berry

#

Safety goggles never came into play anyways

solid frigate
#

i am fine against Kingambit cuz i have Chi Yu and Urshifu

polar canyon
#

Well what does chi yu have to say against koraidon

#

And what does urshifu have to say against rilla

#

That's why you play a balanced rounded team

solid frigate
#

252 SpA Choice Specs Beads of Ruin Chi-Yu Overheat vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Koraidon in Sun: 170-201 (97.1 - 114.8%) -- 81.3% chance to OHKO

Idk did i done any calc wrong

solid frigate
polar canyon
#

That looks cool but what's the point of cress

solid frigate
#

also that Thunder Wave can disrupt Koraidon Hard

polar canyon
#

252 Atk Choice Band Orichalcum Pulse Tera Fire Koraidon Flare Blitz vs. 252 HP / 180 Def Cresselia in Sun: 249-294 (109.6 - 129.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO

#

If you're using specs for your calc I think it's fair to use band for this

charred saddle
#

no one will run band koraidon tho?

solid frigate
#

so its not a fair deal on it

polar canyon
#

196+ Atk Orichalcum Pulse Tera Fire Koraidon Flare Blitz vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Chi-Yu in Sun: 133-157 (102.3 - 120.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO well then

#

This guy can also play that game

solid frigate
#

Dude do you hate my team or something-

polar canyon
#

Also this is a good calc to know

#

Now I know flare blitz can ohko chi yu

#

Noted

solid frigate
#

sigh

charred saddle
#

but yes koraidon doesnt really care about chiyu

polar canyon
#

Well at least now you know

charred saddle
#

chiyu is frail enough to die from flare blitz

polar canyon
charred saddle
#

especially since like chiyu goes to ghost when theres korai

#

and flare blitz neutral OHKOes

solid frigate
#

and also

I don't always go Chi Yu when against Koraidon

polar canyon
#

I just wanted to know too

#

Not trying to prove any point

solid frigate
#

sigh

#

now i have to back to being paranoid to Koraidon

mighty stump
#

Lol

#

Whats going on

solid frigate
#

great Minimize strat teams

#

give me actual teams

#

ok groudon team with Snorlax

solid frigate
solid frigate
solid frigate
#

ah yes Showdown BS

#

cyan smelt
#

Funny that someone thinks base necrozma is good

solid frigate
#

#

Dusk Mane? Ehhhh

@mighty stump tofuuuu whats the best way to like stay fresh during the off season

#

I'm not dismissing the fusions, I'm wondering why someone would think base necrozma could beat the turtle

chrome knot
#

putting restricteds in 1v1 is stupid anyways

its the glue that wins games

LMAO

timber falcon
#

the one im using rn is called "groudonotot"

solid frigate
#

wtf they done to Terapagos

timber falcon
#

bruh

#

only the dozo and flutter set it somewhat reasonable

solid frigate
#

And Tatsu set is suppose to be with A Final Gambit Ape-

timber falcon
#

heck even an explosion mon wouldve worked

solid frigate
#

also Terapagos looks like a Harmless Turtle with this set

timber falcon
#

fr no good damage boosters

#

and flash canon?

solid frigate
timber falcon
#

oh yeah btw, whats ur pagos cres team look like?

solid frigate
#

solid frigate
timber falcon
#

solid frigate
#

Thunder Wave from Cresselia actually recommended by Tofu and That Tornadus is Drago's

#

so yeah kinda they are also in the team lol

timber falcon
#

twave is a pain lol

#

in fact i hated miraidon so much i made entei tera ground

solid frigate
#

so yeah Tofu and Drago kinda indirectly made this team real

solid frigate
timber falcon
#

what i need to work on most is rilla placement, taunt is needed for grimsnarl

solid frigate
#

its hard to think about it

#

so yeah

timber falcon

Like team draft leagues and such

timber falcon

oh yeah how long do regulations usually last

timber falcon

is that the person in ur pfp?

solid frigate
#

Basically Pneuma is just Human Version of Terapagos in Vibes

timber falcon
#

idk why but the word looks like a cold

#

the sickness

solid frigate
solid frigate
timber falcon
#

also unrelated but || gojo is in fact not back mochige ||

timber falcon
solid frigate
timber falcon
#

so some kind of elemental master of elements? korainothoughts

solid frigate
#

She is the Fusion form of Pyra and Mythra (Basically the Base and Terastal Form of Terapagos be like)

timber falcon
#

so some sort of fusion dragon

solid frigate
timber falcon
#

im just tryna make it make sense from a certain show

timber falcon
solid frigate
#

Pneuma is Pyra and Mythra's ascended form. She is the combined true form of Pyra and Mythra, merging both of their personalities into one.

As the embodiment of the true power of the Aegis, Pneuma is capable of rewriting the physical rules of her surroundings, resulting in all type of feats, from light-speed movement to slowing down time itself.

And what does Terapagos did in the Crystal Pool?

timber falcon
#

i forgot arkeknine

solid frigate
#

so both can do time travel shit

#

yeah thats why i name it Pneuma,but it would be better if its Female

timber falcon
#

wait pagos is genderless right?

how come though

idk story plot?

foggy lodge

Terapagos is a normal species that just like, extincted right?

I thought it’s the source of Tera energy in general

except for one.

Speaking of CSR

solid frigate
mighty stump
#

CIR and CSR usage is almost equivalent

#

Farigiraf on 17% of teams

solid frigate
#

huh

mighty stump
#

Miraidon actually on 4% of teams only

#

I think people cannot overcome the single formula which makes it easy to prep for

rustic mountain
solid frigate
rustic mountain
#

its still really strong

#

nd will roll over teams/players that dont respect it

#

but i think its partial surprise factor of what it did well has now been adjusted too by a lot

solid frigate
#

i still respect Caly S,is just my team is built kinda for this occasion

rustic mountain
#

ive played plenty of turtle teams too haha

#

especially if ur cm id just dunk on u

solid frigate
dull ibex
#

I put my friend in two of three bo3s

#

beat*

rustic mountain
#

idt its bad per say, i think a lot of ppl just play cm too linear

#

which makes it predictable

solid frigate
rustic mountain
#

nd my team is generally jus geared towards steamrolling so cm usually isnt the best way to counter that cuz imma jus out damage u

#

atleast from my experience. specs usually is more annoying cuz its immediate pressure

#

but thats just into my team specifically also

solid frigate
mighty stump
#

CM CSR >>>>

solid frigate
#

welp

rustic mountain
#

i like lo for bo1 tho

#

nd for this comp cm doesnt make much sense

solid frigate
#

i kinda just try to do shit

rustic mountain
#

lol

solid frigate
# rustic mountain lol

CM turtle still fits my style more so yeah i kinda wanna stick it untill something different

rustic mountain
#

always good to try other styles out

#

might be hindering urself w/o even realizing

solid frigate
#

yeah i tried Specs before

rustic mountain
#

i gta try atleast 1 other team before this month ends lmao

rustic mountain
solid frigate
#

also with Specs being around i think People would kinda let off guard on CMs

#

but then again like you said

#

its linear to play

rustic mountain
#

idt it has to be, should be an option instead of the default or dont always lead it

#

i think if ppl subvert what the tendencies are it isnt bad

solid frigate
#

yeah true...

rustic mountain
#

but most ppl dont

solid frigate
#

i have too many Lead combinations lol

rustic mountain
#

5 team members + turtle

#

alternate which member u lead w/ pepogld

solid frigate
#

Cresselia Tornadus,Terapagos Tornadus,Tornadus Urshifu,Chi Yu Amoonguss,Chi Yu Terapagos,Cresselia Amoonguss,Amoonguss Terapagos

#

Yeah thats a few i did

rustic mountain
#

atleast u a mix it up a bit

solid frigate
#

i think i lead it once before

#

but yeah i usually train on Placements,strats and Adapting the situation

stray badger
#

I'm just realizing, are Dialga and Palkia's crystals just straight up always better than the orbs?

#

I didn't realize they were held items since in PLA there aren't held items

stray badger
#

I kinda hate it when there are just straight up upgrades of other items like that

solid frigate
stray badger
#

Like I get they'd probably be broken if they weren't held items, but still, they're basically just the orbs but better

#

Why even have the orbs at that point?

solid frigate
#

they are in Gens 4-8

#

and if you don't want to use the Crystals and Globe you can use it for Altered form stuff

stray badger
#

Yeah, I know it's because the orbs already existed, but functionally there isn't any point to them since you get the form crystals at the exact same time in SV

solid frigate
#

the Orb version can make you play Altered with the boost but not the form change

#

but eh i would not complain it honestly

mighty stump
#

Id almost say, why not go Tera Starstorm + Hyper Beam

solid frigate
#

I just want that SpD against Miraidon-

#

but then again it 1 Hit KOs with EP anyway-

mighty stump
#

You know whats still a crazy concept to me

#

252 SpA Venusaur Earth Power vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Miraidon: 78-92 (44.3 - 52.2%) -- 16% chance to 2HKO

solid frigate
#

252 SpA Choice Specs Hadron Engine Miraidon Electro Drift vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Venusaur in Electric Terrain: 114-135 (73.5 - 87%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Damn

#

What's the point of playing Altered over Origin outside of some niche Smogon tier?

bold geode
#

Format?

#

I'm guessing singles cuz VGC don't go off Smogon tiers

#

Which if so, idk

polar canyon

If you're talking about singles I think it's probably because of the item

south shuttle
#

Terapagos is pretty good, I just think it kinda gets countered by any wide guard user

stray badger
#

To be more exact it's "why would you use the orb over the crystal"

south shuttle
#

Since it’s main damage is tera starstorm

mighty stump
#

Tera Starstorm does more damage pre Tera

south shuttle
#

I know Bc of the 0.75 multiplier

mighty stump
#

You lose STAB

#

Stellar Tera Starstorm isn’t STAB

But most terapagos users I fight instantly Tera

charred saddle
#

idk how relevant the jolly 188 is now that lando I pick rates have dropped significantly

#

and also ur running koal id even just drop waterpon and go rockpon

#

rockpon is just more consistent in ur team

#

handles fire type still and can go max max and isnt tera hog

molten oasis
#

Imo. Ogerpon should honestly just be max max

charred saddle
#

sturdy follow me also ensures TR, but tbf idk how id feel with the TR solely being in sinistcha

molten oasis
#

Unless you REALLY need to live something

autumn ferry
#

i want a trick room sweeper here just in case

autumn ferry
molten oasis
#

Maybe not wellspring but with hearth and corner I think max max is just fine, yes attack and speed

charred saddle
#

i just dont like koal is specs --> means tthat u kinda want it in TR and play through it. but also u dont really have a way to set it up

molten oasis
#

Max att max speed jolly

charred saddle
#

and even like if u do set it like u need one of the mons to be dead to get koal in for eruption

#

by then they can stall 2 turns easily

autumn ferry
#

ohhhhhhhhhhh

molten oasis
#

I’m messing with Hearthflame with focus energy as a way to beat zamazenta

#

As zama is a menace

#

And hard to take out

charred saddle
#

id even be more inclined to be like eruption heatwave helping hand protect charcoal torkoal or like eruption heatwave EP protect

#

but like koal there is in weird spot tbf

#

and same as sinistcha

autumn ferry
charred saddle
#

if u really want to have TR set, you can run like fari also to have like some sort of prio stop

molten oasis
#

Ah, I don’t like ting Lu on that team ngl

charred saddle
#

sinistcha doesnt provide anything? idk thats how i feel

#

i kinda wanna mess around with CA ironhands haha

#

CA iron hands + CC

#

thats just beeg damage

molten oasis
#

Fr

charred saddle
#

with fari you can even do like fari IH to stop incin + something

#

and set TR where IH can still play in it

molten oasis
#

I think cc can just kill incin

charred saddle
#

then if its dead koal is in

#

yeah i mean like if theres fari, no FO to IH

#

forcing it to tera or do something else

#

which probably be WoW or parting

#

anyway thats what i feel anyway, take my word with a grain of salt

#

gl

autumn ferry
#

i will adjust it . thanks a lot
u provided some good points .

charred saddle
#

oh i think i dont really hate sinistcha IH?

but thats also when i met a set up IH

#

like swords dance or Belly drum then sinistcha in

#

like IH doesnt really like fairy and ground and i think sinistcha can handle it quite well

#

amoonguss provides a similar support tho, but it doesnt have TR and no heal on switchin

#

just better typing

sharp cobalt
#

I like Sinistcha

ooh i see

#

time to plan my lucario team then BCSalute

#

cuz im gonna have intereersting team in mind

mighty stump
#

If you plan on getting into competitive i'd temper your expectations about using non-meta pokemon/favourites.

#

Realistically something like Lucario is gonna have a sheer uphill battle in usage.

bold geode
mighty stump
#

You'll find little to no success with it, unless you're a very good pilot.

thats why its only pokemon i probs gonna use while building around

I wonder who’s the best person at piloting teams is

If there’s even one

Hey so remember how we were talking about Tera Dragon Rillaboom winning Santiago?
The runner up had Tera Water Raging Bolt

mighty stump
#

I told you, I put in the work to get good enough to run whatever I want and play how I want

#

Most people don't do the former.

Also the Santiago finals mirror was both IDBP Zamazenta so pog

Why are you running Smeargle

This is actually the counter Keanu was talking about right
He's running Ditto to get a 2nd Zamazenta

balmy glen

Hmm do I become reg gs villain or do I just run the team

#

I ended up getting sick so I couldn’t cook a new team tbh

bold geode

"What's worse than one Zamazenta. I KNOW, TWO ZAMAZENTA!"

You know what i am thinking rn? That Annihilape can ||OHKO|| Zamazenta with Final Gambit, might be a great counter and a great intimidate deterrent for Non-Amulet restricteds that are Physical

mighty stump
#

Why did you even spoiler that

solid frigate
#

eh idk Final Gambit is kinda risky to play

autumn vault
#

OHKO Zamazenta

bold geode
#

cough cough Protect

autumn vault
#

And Ape walls Body Press

#

With Bulk Up can tank Behemoth Bashes well

autumn vault
#

So even non-gambit apes can do great against Zama

south shuttle
#

might as well use a stall team

autumn vault
#

Assuming they are Bulk Up

autumn vault
solid frigate
south shuttle
#

i just dont think its fun to run final gambit

mighty stump
#

I see we're still using pointless terms like cheap

autumn vault
#

You risk OHKO'ing one of your pokemon

solid frigate
#

i rather use Final Gambit than Stall teams

autumn vault
#

It isn't cheap, its very risky

bold geode
autumn vault
#

But rewards you for piloting it right (Example: OHKO'ing a restricted when you still have one to get a theoretical advantage)

mighty stump
bold geode
#

That's right
Gotta represent

autumn vault
solid frigate
#

at least you can recover on Being Final Gambited

autumn vault
#

Ape also has 115 HP

#

So it can OHKO many pokemon with max HP

solid frigate
#

But Stall is just I need to get my eyes washed

autumn vault
#

And it has 1 more HP point than Amoonguss, the Shroom menace

solid frigate
#

is it Max HP?

autumn vault
south shuttle
autumn vault
#

Assuming max HP then always will OHKO

#

Amoonguss has 114 HP

solid frigate

fair

autumn vault

And it OHKO's a good chunk of restricteds too

#

Koraidon Miraidon Zama Zacian CSR CIR to name a few

Terapagos Terastal Form

autumn vault

so basically, annihilape just uses gambit while scarfed?

And it also OHKO's Mewtwo Ho-Oh Lugia Kyogre Groudon Rayquaza Dialga Palkia Zekrom Reshiram

Because nobody likes Eternatus TOxic Stall

i didnt even know eternatus runs stall

Toxic Stall is basically playing Singles but even worse

but then again,Taunt is viable here

And you can't OHKO it with Final Gambit Ape which is also bad

Except Design and Lore

Incineroar is trash and Great Tusk is very good

south shuttle

And Landorus Therian is very good in both

south shuttle
solid frigate

only VGC terms are valid here and we can see Caly S although being great,its not in Big 4

south shuttle

its just comp

autumn vault

And most here don't even play singles

solid frigate
#

we mostly play doubles here

autumn vault
#

I also hate OU

south shuttle
#

i mean i play doubles too

autumn vault
#

And no its not because of Gholdengo

solid frigate

and yes Tofu and most of us also confirms that Miraidon,Caly Ice,Terapagos and Zamazenta are Big 4

autumn vault
#

Yup

#

But we can't let our guard down with CSR

solid frigate

Calyrex Shadow is at least top 10 in 6th-8th

CSR can kick our asses when we don't prepare as much as we do rn

Caly shadow is the classic caly shadow ev spread

It didn't go so well

Cuz idk Dozo AT ALL

mighty stump
bold geode

Do I still have the team

mighty stump
#

Flutter basically helps out Pagos if need be with Speed Control and Raging Bolt can just close

mighty stump

Dondozo is for Zamazenta/Koraidon, the former being the numbre 1 worst MU for Pagos

bold geode

Lmao I deleted it, it was so bad

I did considered Bolt and Flutter Combo but decide to drop it cuz idfk

mighty stump

It's also still good into CIR as well

I can't even show the team now

Zamazenta,Koraidon and Caly Ice are worst MU for tortol

i just go with Chi Yu cuz its a fucking nuke

but Dozo i might consider

caly-ice i feel like is at worst a 45/55 for terapagos if not 50/50 or higher

lower than i expected but eh
