[shadow wind]

Yuh.

[nocturne holly]

But weak to 5 types is tuff

*tough

[shadow wind]

Just slightly.

That’s why you slap screens on him and call it good.

252+ SpA Choice Specs Gholdengo Shadow Ball vs. 252 HP / 164 SpD Skeledirge through Light Screen: 157-188 (74.4 - 89%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Specs modest by the way.

[rustic mountain]

koing muk t1

[molten oasis]

yea i was like, if you follow me im cooked

if not you're cooked

then got close to losing anyway

[shadow wind]

Smeargles that run follow me and wide guard making me have a 50/50 every turn is why I don’t like Reg G currently.

[rustic mountain]

eh idk i think if u play all my friends are dead u have a good shot

[molten oasis]

true yea

has to break through zacian too

muk cant hurt zac too much

[rustic mountain]

yea

cant toxic

knock off does nothing

[foggy lodge]

yess i hate it

[molten oasis]

yea

[foggy lodge]

If i make it rain and they wide guard im cooked

[rustic mountain]

maybe dont have ur gameplan come down to that?

[molten oasis]

lmao

[foggy lodge]

If they click follow me and i click shadow ball im cooked

[foggy lodge]

Yeah that's what i do

[balmy glen]

Zama didn’t win

[foggy lodge]

Its still a 50/50 machine sometimes

[molten oasis]

opponent just played better

[rustic mountain]

yea

[molten oasis]

im sad tho that would have been awesome

[rustic mountain]

goated run for zama tho

[shadow wind]

I’ll screen peak next time then.

[chrome knot]

goat cir had to step in

[balmy glen]

I would’ve beaten it with my variant

[chrome knot]

mom said its my turn

[balmy glen]

tbh if I beat my oppo in the 50/50 then somehow managed to beat Marco in the hardest mu I think I win worlds

[chrome knot]

keanu do u know anyone with early morning reservation tomorrow

[molten oasis]

beat a sun team without setting rain lol

[balmy glen]

I auto beat the guy Michael beat in top 8, the Japanese top 4 guy has nothing against my Zama Amoon and then I 50/50 in finals so rip

[balmy glen]

Hell no lul

[molten oasis]

torn set tw and zacian did its job

[chrome knot]

nuts (!)

[molten oasis]

[chrome knot]

i trying to find someone who has one bc i want backpacky

[molten oasis]

im kinda debating giving shifu aqua jet over taunt rn

not sure how i feel about it

[foggy lodge]

whats the set?

[molten oasis]

goggles tera water shifu

[foggy lodge]

hmmm i think taunt

[molten oasis]

ight

[forest arrow]

substitute

[molten oasis]

maybe

its worth testing i suppose

ok well i have to go bed now, i'll play this more after work

https://pokepast.es/d1c75c7c9f1cc43d

[foggy lodge]

What's the stone edge Entei for?

[molten oasis]

checking koraidon

[rustic mountain]

firepon

[molten oasis]

and tera fire CIR

[foggy lodge]

I was checking and there wasn't a single Tornadus in the top 16

[molten oasis]

that too

i mean, them not being in top 16 doesn't mean they arent good

[foggy lodge]

And i think neither top 32 but i may be wrong

[foggy lodge]

Ah makes sense

[molten oasis]

incin isnt in top 4, i still think its one of the best in the format

[foggy lodge]

I don't like the 85% but i get understand it

[rustic mountain]

torn isnt in the best of spots. nd its usual best friend kyogre opted for other friends for this tour

[foggy lodge]

i think its kinda niche rn

[molten oasis]

i have torn for zac due to not wanting to fuck up my entei with peli

[foggy lodge]

Its only played with Kyogre as you said

[rustic mountain]

i used torn for awhile on my ho csr team. i dont think its bad its just not as good as it has been

[molten oasis]

its not as crazy as it was

[rustic mountain]

main tw archetype needs whims over torn

[foggy lodge]

I just played Torn on my Terapagos friends due to the rain dance + urshifu mystic water lines

it's doesn't has the bulk for this meta i think

[molten oasis]

theres still reasons to use torn, whims and peli are better rn

[foggy lodge]

Yep

[pearl kettle]

Sup everyone

[chrome knot]

fell off so hard cir adopted never melt ice

[molten oasis]

lol ig

[foggy lodge]

lmao

[molten oasis]

i think the sudden rise of shifu probably played a role in that

[foggy lodge]

That Caly was made to just press the A button

[molten oasis]

?

[pearl kettle]

I mean

Dose anyone have a arceus

[cyan smelt]

Congrats Keanu and unlucky you didn't go further but at least you can focus on reg h now

[chrome knot]

sudden…? it was always at the top of the format

[pearl kettle]

Dose anyone have a arceus

[molten oasis]

sorry, bigger spike in usage ig

[foggy lodge]

The sash shifu rise was interesting to me

[molten oasis]

dillon explained it well i think

[foggy lodge]

Almost all urshifu were sash i think

[molten oasis]

scarf hs to play around rilla and bolt a lot

and it kinda sucks

[foggy lodge]

Yeah ive never liked scarf

More on this meta with Raging and Rilla

[chrome knot]

sash cool, protect, prio without 300% commitment & you’ll always live 1 so you can play a little reckless

[balmy glen]

Thing is abt torn is that with raging bolt its not as hard to deal with tbh especially since the prio spammers are both bad into raging bolt even tsareena tera ice Triple axle is lol

Unless your Psyspam TW teams

Torn is really good at farming people who panick with balance/some tr teams or TW mirrors so it can never be bad

I personally enjoy playing torn people tho so

[cyan smelt]

Torn is goated

[cyan smelt]

Cringe

[foggy lodge]

ahhh makes sense

Whimsi also kinda outclassed it right?

[balmy glen]

With the addition of Bolt Mirai whim kind of outclasses it in typing and being able to set lightscreen as a bonus to tailwind yeah

[frozen edge]

what a hater

[molten oasis]

I like the rain dance aspect that’s kinda why I’m running it

[cyan smelt]

I like kingambit but it's nowhere in reg g because it's bad

[balmy glen]

I’m in reg h now. Glhf to all my opponents

[molten oasis]

Have fun

[frozen edge]

i wonder if it will be good in reg h

[raven sun]

I imagine it will be okay.

Solid check for Sylveon

[frozen edge]

oh i need to redeem that code

im hyped for ghold tho

[molten oasis]

Gambit should be solid in reg h, I’m not seeing it too much but I think a lot of people are on stuff that kingambit doesn’t like seeing

[frozen edge]

it seems to me it usually trades fine though

with no ogerpon allowed it could be good

tera fire

with low kick for incin

80bsp

[cyan smelt]

Struggles with arch peli and mausape

[frozen edge]

isnt low kick 120 on arch

[cyan smelt]

Also with prima and hisuian decidueye

Arch is not heavy

[frozen edge]

surprising

[frozen edge]

why is it 31atk

[modern harbor]

did it not have 31 atk when it won? it probably just did lol

[frozen edge]

it likely did

i guess it would never really matter

but still

we need those rusty bottle caps already

[modern harbor]

real

bro yuta's team was so cool

[frozen edge]

i didnt watch a single game today except that one italian guy

luca

[modern harbor]

oh he cool

[balmy glen]

It’s ok

It’s good if incin is good which means ape is good which means gambit is ok

[frozen edge]

ig being better into fairies is kind of it

[balmy glen]

Ye it’s typing is solid but being annoyed by body press arch and ape and Gallade on Psyspam is like so annoying lol

Someone will make it work tho

[frozen edge]

ive realized that psyspam is more annoying in vgc

thought it was worse in singles lol

[cyan smelt]

So has worlds finished or is there something tomorrow?

[raven sun]

Finals tomorrow

[cyan smelt]

Sweet

[cyan smelt]

What time does day 3 start

[next stump]

finals likely will be on in about 14-16 hours from now

[cyan smelt]

Thanks

[balmy glen]

Dillon what did u face after going against me

[next stump]

screens Miraidon with Low Kick Iron Hands

that shit does like 80% to Kyogre

[balmy glen]

Low kick?

[next stump]

whatever the weight based move is ye

[balmy glen]

Oh hell nah 😭

[raven sun]

Saw a lot of Low Kick Hands this worlds, lol

[next stump]

yeah it’s a cool meta tech, it completely dunks on something like raging bolt

or even the iron hands mirror

[raven sun]

And Caly-Ice too

[next stump]

also congrats on top 32 keanu, that’s an awesome accomplishment

[balmy glen]

After Zee got 9th at worlds with close combat I think it made a lot of people realize a move other than slam can be used

[torn parrot]

im sleepy

[balmy glen]

ty

[gentle crag]

keanufps has given 1 Gen Rep to mlbd

[graceful scaffold]

has an aussie ever won worlds?

[chrome knot]

go bed silly

[balmy glen]

i dont think so

[graceful scaffold]

sadge 😔

[cyan smelt]

It's difficult for Aussies to even qualify

[graceful scaffold]

true, so much harder to travel for internationals lol

[cyan smelt]

Esp since they got rid of ocic

TPC hates Oceania fr

[graceful scaffold]

why did they get rid of ociccic

[cyan smelt]

No idea

[graceful scaffold]

huh.

oh well ty kalos lol

[cyan smelt]

They don't even stream any Aussie regionals

[graceful scaffold]

oh yeah well done with top 32 keanu, hope you had a great time

[balmy glen]

tyvm much appreciated 🙂

it was a wonderful first season although the way i lost hurts lol

[graceful scaffold]

losing must really hurt yeah lol

[cyan smelt]

Can't believe that wolfey did so badly

[graceful scaffold]

yeah i thought he was gonna keep going

nah that was a dumb question lol

i was not cooking with it.

[snow fiber]

He lost? dang, that sucks

[sharp cobalt]

He did well at the start

[patent marsh]

Wouldn't say he did badly when he went day 1 without losing a set

[cyan smelt]

But he lost every game day 2

[knotty mirage]

I have question if were playing a match and both get to our last pokemon one of the player use recoil and kill both of our pokemon which one will win the one who use the recoil move or the one who's not ?

Because there someone who use steel beam archuladon it ohko my alolan ninetales it die to the recoil but for some reason i'm the one who win what's gives ?

[cyan smelt]

whoever faints last wins

[knotty mirage]

Hmm i mean when my openent use other recoil move like flare blitz theyre the one who do win is this just a steel beam thing

[mighty stump]

Probably cause the recoil goes first before the KO then

Dunno

It shouldnt but 🤷‍♂️

[solid frigate]

lol

that Lando T

[cyan smelt]

hi torrent

[chrome knot]

the wording is different

i think steel beam is guaranteed 50% so it takes it away first then checks for KOs where moves with undefined recoil values ie Flare Blitz, Wood Hammer check recoil last bc its based off how much damage YOU do and & not a predetermined amount

Cbutty (Farigiraf's Strongest Soldier) (@CbuttyVGC) on X

Here is the team my friend Pokeknight used to place 18th at #PokemonWorlds2024 in the seniors division. We felt Eternatus was a good check to the common FWG + Bolt cores, and the stupid bulky Araquanid messed up Caly-I 6 ways from Sunday, we hope y'all enjoy the team :)

[molten oasis]

Nah this shift will be fine, I’m just not used to getting up this early plus it could be worse

It’s the better half of my job

Not sure when worlds is but I can probably tune in mid shift

[wet wedge]

Istg

If Miraidon wins this tour

Lizard's got more to than Rajan for than Florian/Juliana themselves LMAO

[chrome knot]

what

[polar canyon]

What does that mean

[chrome knot]

im having a stroke

[wet wedge]

Everyone was calling the mon a fraud until Rajan cooked up the team for it in Indianapolis

Then it became a fan favorite in every tourney

Lmao!

[chrome knot]

gang that team was in limitless tours

[torn parrot]

https://pokepast.es/f272226336f5b13e

I’m rooting for yuta

Can’t wait to see him on stream

[chrome knot]

before indy but sure

[wet wedge]

Ik but Rajan won the first w it lol

[chrome knot]

and this isnt even the same 6 anymore

[polar canyon]

Gotta admit that valiant is fire

[wet wedge]

99% sure that most Miraidon teams were running different compositions too

[wet wedge]

Yeah ik but that's where the hype started is what I mean

[torn parrot]

I’m sick of this same fucking Miraidon team

Every time I look at it I feel like im gonna throw up

[chrome knot]

even tofu called mirai/farig being insane so

[chrome knot]

i need cir to win AND urshifu at sash broken to get the final hit game 2/3

and i have a decent shot at winning the big arcanine plush

[polar canyon]

Wait you placed bets on the finals?

[chrome knot]

official worlds fantasy draft

[polar canyon]

Gambling on a game that's already partially rng based is the peak pokemon experience

[chrome knot]

you just pick mons you think will appear in t8

based on a few categories

[polar canyon]

These finals are mirai vs cir right?

[chrome knot]

yes

[torn parrot]

Yuta’s team is so ballsy

I’m excited to see it in action

He got this far

[worthy lark]

I don't think yuta goes for tr unless it's late game too

[molten oasis]

When’s worlds live

[pastel blade]

2:45 I think

[foggy lodge]

in about one hour

But i think its tcg finals and all that

[worthy lark]

Match won't be for like another 6 hrs probably

Or even later

[foggy lodge]

Vgc starts 5 hours later i think

[nocturne holly]

And mausape

[worthy lark]

Man I shouldn't gone to singles ladder I forgot how cancerous it in there. Evasion spam every where

[chrome knot]

amoonguss & gholdengo

[chrome knot]

nooo noooo

X not good & thats just not right

all at the same time

[craggy dagger]

huh-?

[craggy dagger]

spread eforce for mausape, you already have sacred sword gallade for archa

that was my idea at least

[modest lagoon]

my brain's not braining guys and girls and every other gender

[craggy dagger]

endgame so basically true if you want uhh
want it early game

[modest lagoon]

I will replay sword and shield just to get it

[craggy dagger]

after the uhhh-

[modest lagoon]

hatt is nice cause you can’t be encored into trick room

[nocturne holly]

Yea

[craggy dagger]

or taunted-
not that it really matters cause terrain but still

arma’s good for meteor beam +1 and better physical bulk

[nocturne holly]

there are still a lot of things running non prio taunt

I have intim tho

[craggy dagger]

also arma can work outside of trick room while hatt kinda needs trick room to function

[modest lagoon]

I have just discovered how awful this wingull location is

It was good but it gives me a headache

Also Mortal draw my beloved

[torn parrot]

Why does this happen

[pallid hare]

bad connection, server issues, etc

[brittle harness]

Aight, so after some testing, Bax feels like a weak link, and I've been struggling with Sneasler and other weather, any tips?
Reg H

[foggy lodge]

Only two mon have protect

I think that the team is pretty vulnerable to intimidate too

I don't like the triple ice type

[brittle harness]

I mean, it is a snow team

[molten oasis]

Ping me when VGC starts plz

[foggy lodge]

Why tera grass Electabuzz?

[foggy lodge]

oki

[brittle harness]

Tbh I never planned on doing Tera Electabuzz, but I just put Grass to take less Ground damage and dodge Amoonguss

[foggy lodge]

Give it vital spirit

Vital spirit redirects spore safely

[craggy dagger]

ping :3

[chrome knot]

634449839204

[brittle harness]

Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of Follow Me Electabuzz tho?
Like, isn't the entire point to punish physical attackers with potential paralysis?

[foggy lodge]

No

[chrome knot]

add me asshole

[foggy lodge]

You prefer the match up for Amoonguss

Also static is kinda inconsistent

[craggy dagger]

you sent it like a second ago jeez

[foggy lodge]

Considering that the only match up you have is the tera grass on Gyarados/Electabuzz

I think vital spirit is much better

[brittle harness]

And the 3 Ice Types

(Maybe 2 if I ax the Bax)

And Typh

[foggy lodge]

3 ice types is not match up into Amoonguss

Tera water

gg

[brittle harness]

Who do I replace Bax with then

[foggy lodge]

bax is fine

I don't like the Mamoswine

[craggy dagger]

mams is weird

[brittle harness]

Mamoswine's fine, it was actually doing work, and it does heavy damage to Archaludon

[craggy dagger]

no i don’t doubt it but wouldn’t thick fat be better?

[chrome knot]

cool whale

[brittle harness]

I thought about it, but I decided the Intimidate immunity would've been better

[craggy dagger]

yaya
it’s Bao the Kyogre

So the bye given to travel-award winners counts as if they won r1 against someone with 100% wins. This leads to players with effectively 8-2 be seeded over players with a 9-2 record.

Winning a round for free is already a decent boost, but this feels like a bit too much imo

I prayed and asked God to not let you in

[mighty stump]

Depends on the set

Thats why it ranges from 156 which is bump and 252 which is max

Anythjng below that just feels unimpactful

[foggy lodge]

Insane game 1

[mighty stump]

Damn I have to get to work so I’ll have to miss the rest of the set
