to talk foolishly or without purpose;
??? you telling me I'm clueless
wtf ?!?!
its subtle way to notice that the way you talk, knowledge is insufficient
??? subtle
short of it
they think acting superior makes them genius or something ?!?!
waffling is slang which is subtle
no just seeing you talk makes me realize you have no idea what ur on about
what makes you think you have an idea yourself then
cause eforce on lunala is not run xD
what about more experience? especially when ur new to the "metagame"
because lunala is commonly found on tr BALANCE
that doesn't answer the eforce
where they DONT HAVE INDEEDEE SO IT DOESNT MAKE SENSE TO RUN IT!!
using archetypes to defend a specific moveslot is not very advanced gaming
ima let you yap tbh
better like this
my eyeballs
okay this shows you dont have idea
Eforce is run on lunala in teams that has indeedee while teams where more used lunala is not used indeedee those teams
No
Dillon reg for solarflare ends july 6 btw^
Your point of view isn't the whole understanding of the game btw
and yours is?
You surely think of it in this way since you think you got an idea
It took all of 5 seconds to find a team that earned CP at NAIC that had Lunala with Expanding Force alongside Indeedee
indeedee lunala teams is not even NEW idea
LMFAOOOO
its actually generally USED
ermmmm….
no expanding force lunalas?
for someone who spoke “meta” and “results” that seems quite odd you missed that
like eforce lunala is used in meta
someone needs to touch grass
eforce lunala is a niche from what you say
and we have here mad boy whose argument got destroyed
awww proven wrong now all whiney🥺
no, they are a niche
in instant when proven wrong .lul
do you even check meta gaming 
its not a niche😭
never said team wasn't run
@devout mist If you can find one Indeedee + Lunala regional/IC team that doesn’t have Expanding Force on Lunala, you’ll prove yourself right
thats like saying close combat ice rider is a niche
so requiring a partner to set something for you to use that move is not a niche
dillojn literally found team that earned CP at NAIC and also its used by plenty people in master ball tier
NO
expanding force + psyterrain is pretty common as its own archetype called psyspam
I love reading different opinions on the matter
do you even know what niche means 
id know bc i gained 200cp with it
Learn something everyday
Don't worry, I'm not asking you to explain it lol
its no longer nice when its actually used in competitive matches and actual ranked ladder quite often
as part of meta
Lunala barely shows up in most tournaments
@next stump can there be a server level minimum requirement before you can be here😵💫
There should be a minimum of civism though
Aggro folks like you make me go nuts
I've got tough skin for toxic elitists jerk this being said
goodle docs disagrees whats pinned 
They sort of agree though
It shows up, but barely
intolerable weirdos who think they know what they’re talking about is the problem
i see there 10 teams with lunala which is pretty big usage
that describes you right now, careful
You came into this chat, gave incorrect advice, got corrected by someone who’s worked with that archtype of team before, and then accuse them of being aggressive
lunala barely appears, but when it does WITH indeedee, it has eforce,
thats the case we are talking about
you were literally proved wrong almost immediately
I gave no advice, if you thought it was then everything you read could be mistaken as advice
yes thank you, someone gets what I'm talking about
wittyremy has given 1 Gen Rep to abused1
what
Lunala isn't showing up as the pick to be brought in every tournament I see
saying eforce makes little sense is advice given
im not even with u 
as a tech no
You realize how the person asking for Lunala help can construe that as advice, right?
because go fucking figure psychic terrain and expanding force go hand in hand😭
up to them, I just say lunala doesn't run eforce much
also witty, i've been here long enough i've seen this chat TOP competitive players also saying eforce on lunala in teams similar to mine
ya that's the niche
so psyspam is a niche?
ITS NOT A NICHE!!!
so i dont know what you're on 
what
psyspam is not a niche lmfao
for you it isn't ok
Okay y’all this is starting to get pointless, it’s arguing with a brick wall
fuss but yes
Just move on to a new topic or back to the original question about After You being an issue
hai tofu
@chrome knot you cant reason person out of position they have reasoned themselves into
a lot of players talk like they are pros xD
i need a third or here tofu im ngl
Good luck
tofu nailed them down
You realise I ain’t on your side
90% of people here actually are pros and experience more than you or me
I doubt
tofu just nailed you down
Tofu is not playing any circuit
because we cant 
bc tofu physically cant
Dillon:
Emma:
my man
Lol
A lot of players talk like pros when they can’t, a lot of people lack access cause of shit access and make the best results we can
You guys better get back on topic, very toxic so far
and to be pro playerr you dont need play in circuit but its how high you rank in ladder too
pro = professional
Bros running away
if you don't play pro circuits
i play in the pro circuit
then you're not pro
yeah some of you are good players
Damn
then you're not pro at being electrician when you got skill and knowledge but you dont work as a job
but I doubt everyone speaking so far is someone going in for pro
That is not coming accross how you think ja ja ja
dillon is going to worlds tho
these people are pro-level meaning they are pros
does that apply as ur criteria of "pro"
not my criteria
thats a VERY high critteria
you have no criteria you already mentioned you are really new and your only experience is the meta and results
it is your definition
let's steer back discussion to competitive things
get off your nothing high chair and show respect for people trying to help others
no, you want it to be, I learn fast.
like fucksake
funnily you acted as a toxic elitist jerk with me
and sprung most of that bs
Let’s stop backseat advising in a place you have 0 standing in with regards to an area you have 0 qualifications in
when you literally define that they're not pro beacuse they dont play in circuit, that is literally criteria for you to be pro is to be in championships or circuits
meaning it fits in your criteria
correcting you, as somebody whos heavily tested and played the archetype he is interested yes
nope
you corrected nothing
as i would know better than somebody who joined maybe an hour ago
and that archetype exists already in wider player base
nothing you brought changed any concept I already knew
meaning it makes it not niche at that point
so you stop being an elitist toxic jerk
so u never learned the concept of psyspam?
and let the helper help
LOL
You ain’t even listening to the helper
I am, trust
but this emma being a jerk to me nah
u literally ignored dillons claim
<@&663761167176433665>
@mighty stump @chrome knot you cant reason person out of position they have reasoned themselves into.
good call tofu TBH
Blocked
he ios lost cause in his small world
yeah honestly lmao
just annoying people constantly
haven't met yourself yet
you dont even wanna read how it started holy shit
''helper'' not on the pro circuit
let the helper help, has no experience in any tournament
yeah. for me i might have similar arguments but when i do actual research and wwhat is said hear aligns, i actually learn more what i alreayd do
by LOCATION he physically cant
I didn’t need to if this is the fucking attitude
🔇 Muted wittyremy for 1 hour
thx bae
Alright I’m back goodmorning friends lol
gm
The most blatant disrespect I have seen towards the people who are respectable towards the game
there we go i got lunala and necrozma now fused
you came too late for that lol
Like you absolutely cannot disrespect good players who know better by being the most fuckwitted troll I have seen yet

and expect me not to get upset
I joined and was like oh I’ll just hover until it blows over haha
makan indomie bang
ngl its kinda funny how some people are so donkey that they are type of "My opinion is right while more experienced people who actually are pros at game says otherwise"
@zinc totem so for some minor adjustments, indeedee wants to be a sash breaker so id go dazzling gleam > expanding so ur not walled by dark types & ndws moveset wants to be expanding force moongiest beam meteor beam & trick room
the whole gimmick of psyspam is you want as many people as possible to be able to set it up lmfao
Also I would say the only criteria for being pro players are like people who are endorsed/sponsored/paid make a living out of Pokemon
on many teams of that level its common to see 3 trick room setters
yeah my core is tailroom
But pro-level is a different matter

Man
well its still used word pro for that aswell
im unsure ur tera but im sure ndw is already tera water
who are not in official tournaments or unable to be in those
fairy was my lunala
I don’t get upset often but after a long day and then having to read garbage like that towards decent people
ohh noo change to water for ndw
oh yea any advice deal with spore spam amoonguses?
This just proves my point skills don’t make a good player, it’s all about attitude
another type that 70% of time beats my team
KILL!
I’m genuinely upset
it moves before my pokemons too x_x so i can hit only one
generally dont set TR when theres amoonguss
i think vs teams that are more balancey with amoongus play tailwind mode and nuke it
plan it better
My highest recommendations is just to completely avoid engagement
please do try to appease the situation instead of adding fuel. it would help a lot. ty
so i fi see amoongus i use tailwind instead gotcha
ill try for the future
like ndw speed stat is flexible enough to play both for sure
Sorry, It get’s difficult when it becomes a bit personal. Idc about me, I care about the others
Psychic/Ghost
Prism Armor
97/113/109/157/127/77
680
Necrozma
and emma and tofu did try ease situation too
yeah and normally they run trickroom themselves for that amongus
That was a tame version of me
so they dont even bring it out before tr is up 
ive seen it a little but safety goggles indeedee is valid
like caly-ice or girafarig
tho psychic seed is a safety net vs knock off
i like seeds indeedee now, no knockoff extra damage is so nice
yeah i use rocky helmet due having seen so many physical mons that has multiattacks (rapid strike urshifu)
Ive seen Grass Tera. You still get chunked by U-Turn though
If you really want PsySeed
so follow me gives more of that safety for phys mons
in safety sense they think abit more that they dont just go rapid strike next turn but switch or forces them change move
Wtf did I even miss tf
newcomer
Also Leo
Why does Rilla learn Snarl
probably random guess beacuse people in discord doesnt go to those
so i assumed its an alt
Bro had a leak smh
I assumed it’s an alt
so it could also been banned person's alt 
it could be also an alt of person who got banned and is avoiding ban
I see
thats maybe more possible
Sigh
Why is it that whenever I'm gone, the shitty people come out
that dude could be you
Okay
only 1 shit people everytime monke
Well anyways

so now itts you that we have to deal with
Nah I talk shit to Tofu without using alts
Fuck you Tofu (love you Tofu)
or maybe you wanted throw wrench in cog to see server in flames 
Legitimately if people want to talk shit it needs to stop being behind an alt like wtf
i only shit talk tofus iron hands during our raid
And also tomorrow is my Region Rumble match
people are spineless
But Belly Drum Iron Hands go brrrr
I have 0 prep cause I was too busy moving LOL
for me legimitately if you gonna give argument and that argument gets shot down with proof and experience of players, you stopo being stubborn and do more research
but beacuse you're not professional your knowledge is invalid arguments are sooo dumb
I do not care if people want to argue and if I’m wrong I just end up learning more but for the love of Christ people need to lose the ego
No fucker gives advice cares if you take it or not
@mighty stump 😭 based on individual performances in their ideal teams and damage calcs and their flaws taken into account, Encore would be lower but if you make her a full normal attack bot and ignore rest of her kit you just need 2 healers/buffers to keep her up 
yeah but when his argument had no basis and basically shown that he dont know anything, he just still wanted argue
Havoc Rover kinda based
thats what i was referring 
ditch genshin, come arknights
ye it's gud swap in
Bro went for the ad hominem when he couldn’t strawman
already ditched both of those
Arknights I can say is one of the few gachas I played longer though
What
I’m convinced everything is a character attack to people more dumb when it comes from people who know better
i still play it after 5 years
actual f2p friendly gacha
yea I only quit arknights cause friends and myself slowly lost interest to keep going
shame. its going so strong with lots good content
Sanrio collab 
yeah. I kinda saw my past self in early 20s in him 
im convinced that people who argues something and is "meta" and "results" or something similar or like "this is used here and there not this" sees world from small lens that only players who are in worlds or in circuits or official tournaments are only valid people whose opinions matters
encore is nice tho 
@mighty stump my yinlin rn crit dmg electro electro atk atk
my encore hitts 28k charge + 3k per ttic with tthe gimmick thing
she plays like ass if you don't NA bot 
just play better 
what game is this btw
no like
i just recently learned that i can parry witth encores jump attack
it's just bad for her damage
so itts getting better
wuthering waves
interestin
though Imma drop the game upon 1.1's update
@chrome knot what was the move set for necrozma dawn wing again?
eforce
moongeist beam
meteor beam
trick room
does my lunala still keep its set even if fused with necro?
just of it like this
think of the item that fuses them as an item that holds their respective data
nvm i got one in my tm pcoket
oh omfg im sorry i spread misinformation
so how im gonna deal with pokemons like terapagos now that wide guard no longer option?
that only applies when unfusing oops
play better im ngl like if you get it in tr you win
i guessed that afdter lil bit thinking
yeah and i think messed up a bit on my evs for the other mons
i gave urshifu SS hypertrained speed so that might been mistake
while max speed and max attack evs 
same with bloodmoon ursaluna
cuz i think few days ago they said i should do it for my tailroom core
made by dillon no less @chrome knot

Its like rote learning
Failure to understand and apply the basics of the knowledge
hah yeah. it took mecouple years learn more flexible ways
hm?
i was age 23 or 24 i started have more understanding and apply stuff more generally in knowledges
oh yeah i wonder if i should give indeedee EP too 
i gave indeedee psychic to help finish off some pokemons and poison type pokemons
idk how i feel bout that
it can run 1 move but it rarely uses EP
wait did u mean eforce or earthpower
yeah i gave it psychic not to get rekt by taunt
what the hell
if u meant earth power no
eforce
why u blu
i always forget its force not power 
@chrome knot what should i fix on my indeedee move set?
whats the moveset currently?
followme, TR, Helping hand is like 3 very very common ones
trick room psychic follow helpingn hand yeah
dazzling gleam
follow me
helping hand
trick room
yeah id like gleam more
yeah
it can also run fairy tera
not for the damage aspect but like it covers well with its weaknesses
dark and fighting resist
my terapokemons were lunala with fairy and bloodmoon with normal and fighting on urshifu
and fairy in general is good defensive typing
but now i switch it to water for dawn wing necrozma
reason why lunala had it
keep ursh dark
ursh was fighting without changing 
max bonk wicked blow damage
cuz CC
i only ever played balance lunala so, it needs fairy
MB, CM, moongeist, protect
no dont
yeah this is why i run necrozma now water
tera dark wicked blow > bc you negate ur intim drops with always crit
tho i would love explanation why water
defensive monster
wouldnt then fairy or something work better or what water does defensively?
wym?
is somethnig wrong-?
ndw reduces SEdmg
what is SE?
and water has lots of resists for common moves like steel fire water
super effective
aaah i see
i c e
well chiyu wont be doing much now 
fairy is neutral to most stuff so it closes outt the ability
ah and that too
i relied on wideguard for snarl/heat wave chiyus a loty
Anyone have an av bolt spread?
Psychic/Ghost
Prism Armor
97/113/109/157/127/77
680
Necrozma
This Pokemon receives 3/4 damage from supereffective attacks.
according pikalytics its Modest 196/0/132/100/68/12
unsure tho
but i think its safer do 252/0/4/0/252/0
I don’t like pikalytics spread bcuz idk what they’re calced for
av also usually has bulk
they're usage statistics
which is why most used is 68 spd
but im sad my 20 wins 10 losses is now 20 win 20 loss
was doing so good till i met gimmicks
VGC do be like that
shelter goodras, after you clefairys and such
oh i didnt know follow me interrupts phantom force
thats funny
shelter goodra and after you clefairy aren’t gimmicks though, they’re pretty meta moves on both of those pokemon. If you write off losses to those pokemon as gimmicks it’ll stunt your growth as a player
because (at least with clefairy) you will continue to see it for the next 2.5 months
wait hisui goodra shellter is actually meta? 
for that specific mon
shelter on goodra is common, but goodra is not common
if you ever see goodra, immediately expect shelter or iron defense
the dude had hisui goodra with shellter, chiyu, grimmsnarl and tornadus
i was thinking building team with hisui goodra one time
but i was "meta is mostly legendaries and with certain ones it feels meh"
for this reg you should start on the restrcited anyway
NDW?
a top tier friend of mine was using a csr hoodra team it’s not bad ig
necrosma dawn wing
ah ok
Budget CSR Zama prep
i just love design of both 
oh thats an interesting combo
i wish i had pro friend who would help me build abit more team towards me haha
also wow i met actual trickroom team
i would've been cooked if i didnt have tr on NDW

Ive seen CSR/Kommo-o stuff too
girafarig slowbro ursaluna tornadus and ghost tree one
what-
not hoodra but same IDBP concept
that was interesting matchup 
trevenant???
Yeah Monke saw that and tried to build it, same concept. I'm just eh about it
trevenant imprison shadow force
lmfao
ngl if the person let me do trickroom instead of imprisoning
he had better chanse win 
oh yea also origin palkia shiny
what is the idea with csr and hoodra
Tbh a lot of the pros kinda just build on our own then meet up later and just be like “yes haha that’s funny and good”
Budget CSR and Zama
i see
Basically it's ideal complimentary
ghost type walls hoodra(budget zama) csr cleans up
If only Hoodra had wide guard
Wide Guard access also helps the mirror if necessary
And Snarl
So those chi-yus cna suck it
should i be trying csr and zama?
I was using Thunder wave archaludon in bo1 so free
Well you can't, cause it's not double restricted
haha yeah. its more find abit more like mmaking abit route middle of jungle how its done then giving me machete to finish it
Nah Mira/CIR
mmm right
Twave Achaludon? 
TWave goated
its vgc time
yeah for sure just never expected on Arch haha
It can’t be redirected
oh true stalwart
lmao how tailwind adamant urshifu is faster than swift swim kingdra
Water/Dragon
Swift Swim, Sniper, Damp (Hidden)
75/95/95/95/95/85
540
Fighting/Dark
Unseen Fist
100/130/100/63/60/97
550
Urshifu-Rapid-Strike
shifu just naturally faster base speed too
Kingdra can still outspeed Adamant if it was Timid
Well it's a SpAtker
i mean waterfall kingdra is also a thing no?
i see i see
but it does get dragon dance
i hate muddy water ngl, in one battle it lost me game cuz i missed wicked blow
also im in my 30s and it childish but would be fun have mentor who is pro 
I've coached people older than me before and I'm pretty sure I advise people older than me all the time
That;s also probably the general age group of competitive Pokemon players
haha would be fun to be coached by you @mighty stump
Watch a replay of a Pokémon battle between redstonejesus and inferno_on_top! Format: [Gen 9] VGC 2024 Reg G; Date: Jun 22, 2024
I like to think from feedback at least people have found a session with me useful
I concur with that feedback
I don't really have the time at the moment
Although never been in a session of coaching with Tofu, I can vouch that Im a much better player from advice
https://pokepast.es/3a520fe49ee8cbea thoughts? I’m probably gonna switch bolt for a an av set
what uses stellar tera has in pvp?
It's a purely aggressive tera
as long as its free ones, i defo would love few
yeah i lost to stellar tera lucario
vcuz i got t-waved by meowstic M
Well once I have more time I do everything here for free lol
you really want max SPE on Urshifu
you guys think spatck ray can work?
otherwise you don’t outspeed CSR guaranteed
Even with scarf?
Yep, you need 252 Adamant to outspeed
DAscent is far too good to give up lol
physical it is
tofu taught me everything I know, like how to click sleep powder into a grass type
You can just run 4HP with your current stat spread and that should work
Yea it does
do i gain value from wheezing rayquaza? maybe cancel intimidate?
hm
Like
Just use CA SD
@next stump do yk what restricted your running at worlds
NGas cancels Weather the same how Air Lock would, so it feels redundant, and you can just ClearAm
probably Kyogre or CIR
the point is id be able to use a different item that CA
but we’ll see what does well online and what clicks
gotcha
but im not seeing any other way it benefits in the current meta so im dropping the idea
yeah ill just be spamming the same team and just have more games than everyone now
what item lowers the speed of pokemon ? these are interesting ones
except for OPL ill change it up
room service lowers speed in tr
that’s gonna be the best approach tbh, especially for people like us at our first worlds
Iron Ball/Power Items/Room Service
just go ultra comfort
never heard of that before
ye I already have 200 bo3s on the team so far while taking good breaks to keep it relaxing
been making a lot of minor adjustments though
ok so im stumped with rayquaza speed evs
Idk if anyone already shared it here but https://youtu.be/Aw4DJBdV4C0?si=Aar_sSbJ6x0QjnT7
Thanks to battle-crush for sponsoring this video: Pre-register for Battle Crush: https://ggcont.me/3xgcGMO . Enter the giveaway: https://ggcont.me/3KJ4VlU
Everyone wrote off Miraidon - but then, somehow, it won a tournament. Here's how.
Check out all my Scarlet and Violet videos here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLb_5fF_O3FvjEglm1tAGgGVu...
room service pelipper screwd me over hard
omg im in a wolfey video
more often than expect
he actually whenm talks about tournaments or something, he meets you 
sorry i cant understand what u just said 😭
yeha i think rayquaza just gonna be max max adamant for me
L
can u rephrase this
was actually write "Let me rephrase": When wolfey talks about some of pokemon tournaments he joins, he mentions you in some of those videos if you've been there
oh gotcha
and meets you in those instances
I mean i've fought him twice now
what if i dont run cleat am ray
we gotta settle our 1-1 score at worlds (real)
haha. Wolfey was one of people got me considere getting violet cuz i do love ranked competitive plays
1-2
online tours im guessing rather than regionals right
dragon crowned?
question is who is sukuna and who is the Gojo ||that dies||
exactly
Not even, I ran into him on the ladder in-game while he was streaming or something and I won cause I got lucky
LOL
LMAO
He missed a Wisp which mattered hard later into the game
ik that dragon is good to resist fwg and whatnot but in a dragon/iceheavy format i wouldnt-
hm...
Cause of the chip woujld have put me into range
he's really nice he said hes scared of facing aurelian,myself, and one other I forgot cuz we're like the young upcomers
Huge compliment
okay that is HUGE beacuse he wont say it about just anybody
aurlien is scarier tho for sure cuz hes been playing longer
I gotta lock in and catch up to him
i've never ben brave enough for competitive otuside tournaments in my country time to time
thing that aurelian and i both have is very supportive moms I realized that helped us a lot lol
Mine would have whooped my ass if I said I wnted to play Pokemon as a hobby
So now I'm a doctor
hasvent checking much of tyournaments in my country lately but yeah
tbh I did make a lot of money from pubg so it makes more sense in my families pov but like aurelians mom is a vibe
uh any relevant steel types in the meta i gotta account for?
meeting international players is definitely my favorite part of the ics
just gholdengo and zama tbh
oh shit yeah
zacian too ig
oh wow okay knock off klills necrozma instantly from rilla
aight thanks ill try get a mon that can cover for those MUS
Anyone have an av bolt spread? 🙏
dont forget goodra hisui
TR bloodmoon ursaluna
wait a sec
earth powerr hurts them
they hate gholdengo
cant zama OHKO outside though
chandelure
and normally run tera grass
:0
thats why you run protect
oh thats interesting
not very consistent answer though, considering im not running tr-
i havent decided on whoch form of speed control yet, also it remains an inconsitent answer
ngl restricting to 1 restricted pokemon is more balanced fun
i think i like twave
its fun until u show up to a tournament and face only your counter which u cant do anything abt xd
i cant decide weather gholdengo or chandelure helps me more
Just dodge the matchup
Lemme see the team
U don’t know the legend of my bad luck do ya
its just gambit rayquaza rn lol
I don't wanna talk about bad luck
I can’t even dodge fissures let alone matchups
cant have bad luck if you dont think about it
That doesn't cancel out bad luck
^
I got quad crit by mott to get eliminated from LA xd
hmm most ho ya say
Like
Yeah you could say that
I don't mind if it still has holes in its matchup roulette either
tyos Zacian team xd
Send paste, is it public
i think ive forgotten how to team build
haha that is why i think team composition is best

https://pokepast.es/dbdf33d695435838 i changed something but forgot what lol...
brb supper
In case it isn't obvious I see a line to shove Snorlax in a team as long as it's aggressive enough
https://pokepast.es/bfc2dbe4a8d7636f This was what I had to get to t20
I slap my volcarona with anything like its rice
We love rice
yup
can you eat rice with ketchup
i just wish i could somehow integrate my lucario in
oh u can
but lucario base stats makes it so unusable 
only reason how i made lucario work few times was calyrex-ice teams
where its niche is beat ice and flutter manes
haha
Just saying
it beats flutter?
Lucario can help you against Incin stuff lol
meteor smash
Fighting/Steel
Steadfast, Inner Focus, Justified (Hidden)
70/110/70/115/70/90
525
Lucario-Mega
Who cares
u forget the other mon is faster-
Inner Focus is nice
tr/tailwind
Oh thats the new Lax set
Honestly atp if your not prepping for worlds just slap anything for fun lol
It should be the old one
those who play cimpetitively 
Not really
competitively*
Like Keanu said
wait does the format change after or smth?
I just take my ladder shit more seriously than the average joe cause it's all I have at the moment
to get worlds, i need beat europe competition fiurst
and I need it for content
haha
Plus I like to think good habits build a good player
when is it double restricted?
post worlds, but we dont know when exactly
is this bo1
probably
yeah it is
roaring moon is usually a 2-2-2 tw setter plus typing with less fairies is generally good
that reminds me, i gotta update munchteams rn lol
oh lol, i just pressed ur pfp and never saw the site b4 so had a look
i see, so it can potentially be a csr answer with iron head???
whilst setting tw
wait ur the munchstats creator?
so there might be more replays you can go through
yup usually on 2-2-2, can set tw, forces a 50/50 wiith csr cuz they have to tera to not die to knock off and can get flinched/dealt lots of dmg with iron head
Coolio I use your site a lot
How do you guys get a lot of the pros spreads btw
Pizza and me influenced the Munchlax line statistics so heavily cause the sample size was tiny
Do you just rewatch the stream replays?
nice, happy to see a top 8 regional player use my site 
how do yall enter tournaments ? is it like a server ?
like online tournaments or in person
online cuz i’m new
Use Limitless
gotcha, usually limitless ye
Just filter by VGC
thankyou
man I cant believe I have to run lines for sub protect cm terapagos
lol
can i use rentals in online or no ?
Yeah

When does reg G end
Alright, which restricted is winning worlds?
One of the calyrexs, Pagos, Miraidon, Zamazenta, Koraidon and Kyogre are possible candidates
CSR CIR or Pagos
My bet is gonna be CIR
CIR and it’ll be me 
My predictions will be CSR, CIR, Pagos, Miraidon, Zamazenta or Kyogre
Most likely not Kyogre
pick 3
you just picked the used restricteds
NO
If it had to be 3 then go with the first 3 i addressed
I actually am gonna do a blogpost covering events and I'm gonna do a top 5 prediction at the end
(it's gonna be basic AF lol)
It’s pretty easy to beat if your anything other than csr tbh
Yeah lmao
It's just a bit more annoying is all
I’m gonna say shadow rider

Hi, so recently i have been really wanting to get into competitive and dont really know where to start. I feel like singles would be easy for me to understand so i think i would like to start out there. I dont have a team yet, so im wondering if i should try to build my own or use an already popular one to get started. Any suggestions?
Hello 🙂
Most people in this chat tend to focus on doubles (since it’s the official competitive mode for tournaments, otherwise known as VGC) but there are some singles players here. I’d recommend looking on YouTube for videos of people playing Battle Stadium Singles, the name of the format you’re looking for
In general though, building your own team is not really recommended until you have a grasp on the basics

dillon do you think mirai+lando i could work as like a faster bm ursa
I think it’s worth testing
I think part of the charm of Ursa is that you can play towards TR with Farig/Hands/Ursa but Lando being faster than a chunk of the meta can be beneficial
Oh you're here again
does lucario work better with a physical or special attack build?
While you shouldn't usually use lucario, if you do you probably should use physical
One thing I can maybe see it doing is the tera normal espeed gimmick
Like a bad entei/dragonite/rayquaza

Hi
I wonder what physical hit I should calc for with alomomola
It does live grassy glide from rilla and horn leech from adamant ogerpon
why-?
Because I wanna try using it
Water
Healer, Hydration, Regenerator (Hidden)
165/75/80/40/45/65
470
It can live a max modest booster energy thunderclap at 68 hp 204+ spdef
hm
I thought it looked interesting with wide guard and regenerator + flip turn + 165 base hp wish
well wouldn’t most live a se tclap (that’s meta relevant rn) with that investment?
Well yeah
Like
That's the point
I'm not stating it trying to make it impressive
Just saying a calc for stats I wanna use
hm
try calcing wood hammer, wild charge i think-
That would be a good start-
to calc higher bp first
Fair
I don't think it's taking any grassy terrain wood hammers with a reasonable amount of investment
yeah
if anything try calcing some lower stuff as well-
play rough zac, standard pao set, etc etc
+1 252 Atk Sword of Ruin Zacian-Crowned Play Rough vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Alomomola: 204-241 (85 - 100.4%) -- 6.3% chance to OHKO
Not sure if I have to worry about this one
I could try to get a 3hko with leftovers when no sword of ruin or something
It could be tera ghost for fake out and live a specs psychic from calyrex
Maybe that's interesting?
😱
Bestie blue
Wha happen
I knew something was off

left the server for a break-
looks like that didnt go well
Oh
I sorry
Morning all
Morning
Say what time is it for you now
Dang

gm tofu
Ok so you are hmmm
12 hours apart is crazy
Im whatever time difference we had +1
Is it ahead or behind I never know
Ahead cause of dates
Ahead for me
Tofu's in the future
Tofu why didn't you tell me today was gonna be bad at work
Tofu probably just wanted to watch me suffer tbh
If I could see the future I wouldn't be telling anyone
Wow
If I had powers I wouldn't tell anyone.
The cia would capture you to research your dissecated brain
You'd think the beast is some kinda monkey
How Monke felt:
Lmao
That's the beast inside of him
Trying
This fucking dog taking forever to pee though
Just now did it after like 7 minutes lmao
lol gl lmk
So
Ig im not playing my Region Rumble match
Idk where my opponent is and its way past out scheduled time
And I got life things to attend to
I mean to me it depends on what I'm fighting for
If it's for fun yeah that's lame
If there's any reward involved yeah that's one hurdle skipped
Well it's a team event
I want to win in life without a fight tbh
Waiting for some old uncle to reveal he's a millionaire and I'm his closest relative and will inherit his fortune
That's different though
I don't gain anything personally out of this
Like playing the game is the point of it
Welp sucks you had to wake up early for nothing
it do
There's gonna be more for fun tourneys ig
i had to anyways
I mean
Region Rumble is going on for like
Another 4+ weeks
Lol

Playing Fortnite with Riley is something I never thought I’d say I’m doing
The real worlds practice
Aw hell nah, they used an XL Exp candy for sure
gotcha

https://pokepast.es/df3f24792669b592
Which of these two teams do you guys think looks better
Is he cracked?
just too used with whim miraidon so
and honestly
dont think u need iron hands there
idk might be great bbut like parting shot incin might help out more especially with miraidon not being able to protect
not really experienced on this,
but i think its very similar to rajans regional winning team so
World may never know
Now I have James Evans and Riley playing Fortnite
Lol
Most random interaction
Yea I was also thinking of incin over hands
yall fw dialga
torn tera type?
dark or ghost is what I usually see
ok ty
dark ghost, for more like of a niche ones, dark for taunt, ghost for FO
but if ur looking for defensive tera, like i think theres a use for rocky helmet bulky torn spread it can run steel
steel is what i tend to use along with ghost
Would anyone who knows a bit of comp theory be willing to take a look at my draft league team and do a sanity check?
I don't need in depth advice or anything
Good to see you back, proud of you for taking a break.
amonnnn
hiii it’s good to be back :3
even though i think it was only a day 
A break is still a break.

smelly
so r u son-
go take a shower
damn
Damn gottem
Welp 3-3 drop
All cuz Snarl missed
snarl missing is like rolling a NAT 1
sad but it happens
Well they had Caly S and Wellspring Ogerpon in the game right (with Chi Yu and Urshifu Rapid Strike) and like
I was basically stuck in Snarl spam unless
Yeah Throat Chop don't look to have been in range until the turn where Snarl missed
So I was basically stuck in Snarl spam cuz like
Otherwise I'm playing a mindgame of when Oger will redirect and like usually that ain't so bad, but they were so fuckin sporadic with it that I basically couldn't tell at all when they would and wouldn't
Like I was making decent reads the whole tour
But I couldn't read them at all cuz they kept doing shit that didn't make sense
T1 swapped out Caly to Urshifu, which died to a Grassy Glide that I figured was obvious AF
Then they NEVER tera'd Caly S in front of Ting Lu (I know Snarl Ting Lu don't do much, but it was Sash Caly so like I'd still be scared a bit) and they just were doing whatever tf with Oger
Like I basically tried changing up shit, going from Wide Guarding to just Helping Hand Snarling or even went for Helping Hand Heavy Slam on a turn they should've follow Med but I predicted they wouldn't and they didn't redirect
Just like nothing made sense
Probably just don’t think about it then review it again like in 1-2 days time with a different perspective
I mean tbf it wasn't like
I actually played fairly good so
First loss was a one turn misplay
Second loss I brought a wrong Mon but was still close AF
Third loss just needed the Snarl to connect tbh
That vs my wins which were pretty clean
