what the fuck is going on-
then you end up here :3
is it Rocky Helm Incin or Goggles?
goggles
yeah you should be fine against Amogus
i alr won
yeah ik lmao

i have to update the list after San Antonio rn-
move zac/lunala up a tier and you can cut the rest ngl
I feel like Terapagos should be a bit higher
Maybe by a place
as a Turtle Main,It should not be that high
and with Kyogre doing Calm Mind and Koraidon getting More Usage
Its kinda in a lower spot,Still good tho c:
if you ask me in wave 1,yeah its in top 5
rn its top 8
I’ve not seen koraidon in a few matches
it got top 4
But its not a calyrex so they kinda don't have the same treatment on usage
However Terapagos has a like 40/60 MU against Koraidon,which is still fine but common threats can just make them lose momentum since Terapagos requires a lot of momentum to do anything,so Koraidon still is better
thats why i put Terapagos in between the Sun setters
Ok
this u w ur 3 rank wuns @torn parrot
huh?
ik where zacian lies in the meta you're not hurting me lol
i think Emma's tier list is accurate

I got a gift guys
Watch a replay of a Pokémon battle between Woodsnotiger and LinkHelper! Format: [Gen 9] VGC 2025 Reg G; Date: Feb 4, 2025
kinda feel terapagos needs flutter
put flutter in front of koraidon, itll most likely tera unless they can speed control
then boom tera starstorm SE (assuming u twaved it)
twave flutter is so annoying now
Thats why I put it back on the team
Volcorona also is the STAR player on my team
Tera water volc has walled so many threats it's insane
I need to shiny hunt a Volc
eh its not too hard honestly
Around 40/60
this is literally just Tera Water Hands but you have Average Bulk instead being a tank
volc and hands do different things
i'm still addicted to Water Hands
likw really addicted

【PJCS予選第1回 最終33位/R1755】パゴスドーブル寿司 - kimupoke https://t.co/3px1z1DK3S
Oh the image doesn't appear lol
Idk what's the last move from the Tatsugiri
And the Dondozo
I guess its yawn for Dondozo and Helping Hand for Tatsugiri?
I love how every mon has a normal type move
its protect for sure
the dondozo move is sub
"this dream is falling"
you can look up the japanese names on bulbapedia
Dazzling gleam pagos and scary face protect Tornadus
if you can guess them
Its a very cool team
ye
Negoto - talking in your sleep
Luckily i know how to read Hirigana and Katakana 😭
40/60 Match up deal with it
No seriously after i played so much turtle i don't think its that much issue now
No I'm aware I'm just relearning everything so it's already all like a 40/60

With FM I'm doing a lot better
And Volc too
its just sometimes you need Flutter Fish (Damn i already miss Luna)
Flutter Mane and Chi Yu
Just got back from football, what's cooking good lookings?
just look at my team in GC i use Flutter Fish
I was told to run Incin instead of Chi-Yu 👀
Terapagos specs with Chi-Yu Flutter should have a better match up into Zama
It still struggles into it but its an upgrade
if you are running CM then yeah Incin is good
I just love Chi Yu More cuz more offensive Pressure towards Zamazenta
Hmm, specs legendaries are tough though, it's why I swapped to Pagos after Miraidon
I'm assuming there's not a great set without specs though for offense
Maybe I'll try specs again to mess around, but overall CM is going decently well
I main both of them and i like them so far
#rental_teams my teams are there you can see it
Ty
i personally think Raging Bolt is very strong in Turtle Teams but eh why not
THE DREAM IS FALLING
As of RIGHT NOW this is what I'm running: https://pokepast.es/a1f7494500cd8c2e
God this team is so good
It's okay
I still can't believe Wolfe went undefeated at world's until top cut
the momentum was insane
How does this look? It seems, okay
I feel like it lacks a strong presence though, I have to work really hard to get a lead
Not a bad thing inherently
its alr
what friend guard pokemon were popular in gen 7 vgc?
at the start you'd see it with CSR
now its with Pagos and Miraidon
meaning its a mu you have to prep for more which sucks
good team
do you play closed team sheet bo1 or open sheets bo3
Tera of Volc is water no?
not bug right
im running diff Volcs depending on format ngl
@bold geode guess whos annoying ass you get to deal with again
FUCK I GOTTA DEAL WITH YOU
:3
SCOTTY
Now check it

i cant tell if shes defending me or just wanted to hit monkey
both
thats an option too
Open sheets bo3
Yeah water, not bug
Imma bonk you back
Actually y'know what no

that’s a pretty solid team
what team?
oh gotcha
Does bmu hypervoice hit phantom force user ?
it shouldnt if theyre in phantom force T1
thats how those moves wokr, like dive or fly
what HV or phantom force?
HV hits behind subs
yeah its a sound move

flying enemies arent hidden
If this move is successful, it breaks through the target's Baneful Bunker, Detect, King's Shield, Protect, or Spiky Shield for this turn, allowing other Pokemon to attack the target normally. If the target's side is protected by Crafty Shield, Mat Block, Quick Guard, or Wide Guard, that protection is also broken for this turn and other Pokemon may attack the target's side normally. This attack charges on the first turn and executes on the second. On the first turn, the user avoids all attacks. If the user is holding a Power Herb, the move completes in one turn.

no im dumb
no why would HV
im dumb dw
BECAUSE THEY DIDNT TURN THEY EARS OFF
MOST MONS CANT DO THAT
they’re just like 30 feet above me, HYPER voice I feel like it should reach em but I can be wrong I suppose
If someone is close enough for a jump uppercut they can hear me
Idc I stand on it
No arguing that
But hypervoice by description will shatter objects in the background
So I feeeel like SOME damage carries love
yeah well they arent calculating that so no damage
Wack
welcome to kids game, where what the move saids it does is more important than logic
Aye this is a good shout
wolfe did this ability on lapras with glacier for guaranteed OHKOS
oh that shit
was funny to watch
yk what doesnt make snese
Dude double spored me the other day and I was confused as shit
the fact chien pao can use recover
There’s no clauses in this is there
spore is 100% acc
no clauses in VGC
only way to avoid spore is safety goggles or being a grass type
Thanks. I feel like it isn't finished yet, but I've been liking it. These are all of the mons I've been interested in this season
https://pokepast.es/f41616e7f9968433
keonespirit has given 1 Gen Rep to mlbd
wdym by clauses?
vgc is everything rn except mythicals
On showdown there’s on sleep clause
certain showdown modes have rules called clauses
Item:
no bans on anything
No OHKO moves and stuff
OHHH THOSE THINGS
like you can’t sleep multiple pokemon and stuff
I want Mythicals to be legal so bad
yeah no welcome to we can do what we want lol
i doubt they will but maybe
Nooo
except Items
OU pls no legends
LET ME USE MELOETTA IF I WANT
didn't OU slipped some legends
I mean some yeah
like thats not an excuse for wanting OU then
But I’m tired of Kyogre miraidon and zenta teams lmao
then go groudon 
in 1.5 years you’ll be free
or a horse
I have horse. Horse isn’t that bad
I enjoy restricted formats
lmfao
in 1.5 years i wont be fighting incin for a bit
after Reg H V3 and reg G v4 we will all be free
Nah he'll be in the regional dex
double restricteds:
https://pokepast.es/2d0a1649f4d378cb anyway thoughts on this?
they like us sad and bored
no plz, the mf already pisses me off
didn't we said its alright for it
its solid
i cant thnk of a mon off top of my head that you cant cover fairly well so seems solid
i am kinda unsure on the bolt set, Keanu said to go fast which is what i think it is but i also like my bolts bulky
lorb bolt damage is really funny tho
what if just fast AV and be weird 
https://youtu.be/i7iM-Jnu0P8?si=pgexkPJDA1hpPD4H
MOXIE NOOOOO
This move is so strong, but on such a weak mon.

nah lol
fair enough lmao
i mean if you like LO then yeah be fast but
is 252 hitting anything significant?
can you lose some speed to go into bulk and rely on +1 for certain matchups if thats what you want
im not well versed with EVs and shit to know off top my head
i think thats why lorb sets are max speed
makes sense
though thats also goes other way cus slower ones will be AV to tank you better lol
you thought going fairy tera for the mirror LO matchup?
what does pao do into incin CSR
a protect sucker punch hopefully
i tend to lead bolt or shifu depening on sets and tera/s
gotcha
eh, i'll keep it for now ig
i also had bloodmoon over pao for a little bit to test stuff
how was it?
not great
ursa TW nuke?
just felt awkward in a lot of situations
gotha
I'm trying to figure out what this team needs, or if I need to go back to the drawing board.
https://pokepast.es/c3a5ffad2556beb8
Below are all the mons I've had my eye on, but idk if I should use any or not
@spiral ridge stew a
stinky…..
wtf body starts shaking again ig
how many games have you played with the team to determine it needs a change?
go drink water then damn
I'm probably nearing game 50, still running them while taking input
Usually I just write the input i get here down, then keep playing with the old team until I'm satisfied to go over the recommendations
@fluid fiber have u ever tried striggle bug over Screen?
Oh I've been using protect recently, is SB good?
yeah but tbf
Kinda fall flat when Pagos and CSR Run Cloak,Miraidon has Volt Switch anyways
And Kyogre just bullies Volcarona
you can run it over bugbuzz
This is what my friend runs lmao https://pokepast.es/f74b11d328c42906

You know that is an- interesting team
):
Hear me out...
Surf Ludicolo, absorb bulb Kyogre 🤣
give me a reason not to beat his ass
I have none
don't ever post that paste again pls thank u
sometimes people can't read
that's a team i guess
it's got 6 pokemon and stuff
It has a Palkia
👍
He refuses to change any pokemon because online it has like a 50/50 winrate
):
It’s not the worst Iv seen
Iv seen 0-20 before
50/50 is probably average for a new player
How
Is someone THAT bad
That HAS to be on purpose
it was probably a self built team that had very low chances of winning games
I have no idea...
even against low ladder opponents
honestly
going 50/50 with whatever that team is is a pretty decent accomplishment
Palkia is just
Its a restricted.
It’s a Mon
The worst i have used for a restricted is Dialga and NDW-
Bruh
why use Palkia when you can use These 2 Restricteds
The worst restricted ive used is Kyurem
Why use any restricted when you can just use those or Calyrex
Zamazenta:
wow its crazy were gonna have double restricted in a bit
I'm trying Dialga CIR lmao
at least Dialga would be better in Double restricteds cuz of Being Utility
Can’t wait for Calyrex similator
the only reason i use CIR cuz of Dialga being so fucking cool
Cool
as always
i hpoe we see some lunala partners cus of wide guard trick room tho
this guy exists
Theres LunaDon
LunaDon
LunaDon
zama iron defense
koraidon beats the darky mons lunala wide guards the glaciel and exanding force and astrals
and soft trick room into tailwind
maybe but it kinda depends
I would not doubt Koraidon's Potential since thats what my teambuilding Group is working on but yeah
meanwhile me:Turn Down Le Heat
on paper
it still good on Lunala just idk
I'm sticking to SWSH Dialga/CIR
Oh trust this has been the plan since day 1 lol
i think 31 IV Speed CIR would still work but yeah lmao
Quit taking my ideas
basically
Pretty much
Av and Band are the same way
+1 is 1.5 boost

Good morning guys
Choice Specs Hadron Engine Miraidon be like:
Any advice for my lineup I want to use for ranked , please feel free to replace any of my Pokemon I have 4 legendary but I feel like changing it up I am using noivern , talonflame, kyogre , zekrom , Lugia , zamazenta
1 we can only use 1 Restricted Legendary
2 this comp is Horrible-
You can only have 1 of the legendary Pokémon
Okay only one legend can be used
Which do you want to keep
Lugia
honestly i rather keep Kyogre ro zamazenta
If you want lugia try this team
I have Kingdra I can replace for kyogre ?
Oh yeah the one in Indianapolis tight?
Oh ok that looks cool
It was Los Angeles
I’ll try and find the Indianapolis team
https://pokepast.es/ca2c64e1a78663b7
6-3 at Indianapolis
close enough
@fresh epoch these are the evs if you want to make the team in scarlet/violet
Oh god not my friends team 💀
ofc someone you know is responsible for this 
For your line up? Ask your barber bro
Hes actually the one that gets me my pokemon lmao. I shouted him out after my stream match
aahhhh
Gotta remember to shoutout my family next time I was a little nervous and blanked out and forgot since it was my first stream match interview lol
Oh check dms lul
on a new level of tilt queueing into bo1 garbage
I feel this
Need to go back to bo3 asap but it's soo long
its just so boring 😭
the most random garbage come in and its ALWAYS "omg csr is so broken must do this!!!!!!"
just like okay man I get it,,, beat csr lose to everyone else 😭
Do they have a Dark Type on their Team?
If yea,Skill Issue
If No,Teambuilding issue
amoonguss my beloved

Shout-out to this mfer on Discord

PROMISE
Tofu is apple man still funny
why would i not
What a beast is specs pagos lol

On who?
Could give flutter mane a bit of bulk
someone call me?
Goggles tera grass volcarona or if you are sticking with Cloak give it TW for additional speed control options
is it worth putting clear smog on my moongus in order to counteract the effects of intimidate and caly-rider's stat boosting with calm mind and Chilling/Grim Neigh?
i dont really want to replace rage powder, pollen puff, protect, or spore as I use all of them. But stat changes are consistently a struggle for me
not really, because most run clear amulet
haze is the only thing you can do to negate Caly Ice stat boosts
oh shit right, forgot about that part. thanks!
ice isnt usually much of an issue for me, ghost caly on the other hand...
foul play is great tech for countering caly ice, especially with a couple stat boosts
and Amoongus learns it
its alright, my win ratio is higher than my lose ratio rn so im doing something right
Removes sun without having to Tera, helps terapagos set up with AV, does STAB to Koraidon and Groudon
bare in mind both of them are almost instant Tera's
dies to flame charge tho
both have fake type syndrome and hog fire tera
True, but protect on Ninetails + Tera starstorm
Or protect on terapagos and AV
Then put Grassy terrain down
☝️
Even without terra it keeps resetting Pagos' ability
that doesn’t stop clear smog
That doesn’t stop clear smog
still wouldn’t run it tho imo protect is better
That doesn't stop clear smog
That doesn’t stop clear smog
i don’t think it’s clear enough yet

So, so confused
I'm off to sleep, night folks
@dapper crag what about it man?
idunno seems interesting to test out
@dapper crag just as FYI we are mostly VGC player. Not Smogon format
i mean isn't that also viable in vgc
Not atm
Only in like one regulation tbh.
Right now the regulation allows for 1 restricted Pokémon and all Legendaries and Paradox
This team is fodder for those
@dapper crag nono. Just wanted to let you know that we arent as into the rules and meta of smogon formats
i honestly don't know about that format either
@dapper crag doubles ou
Or ubers and stuff is smogon
Or at least thats how I differentiate them
oh ok
The competitive format is VGC regulation G right now.
Its the format that official tournaments are played in
Its also playable on Showdown
It's a 6v6 but you only use 4 mons each picking the best squad to beat ur opponents
Finally tried out the caly gang.... And almost 1600 atm on showdown ladder.. so much easier lol

shaymin's a mythical?

ok idk how steals work ngl
nor did i, i just winged it lol
The world is playing games with me
I got rid of an alolan Meowth last week, now someone wants SEPCIFICALLY alolan Meowth for Gouging Fire
Wha do you need gouging for
I wouldn't have made that trade tbh
Sounds really fucking fishy
Pokedex?
Its just for my dex
Like why ask for an Alolan Meowth for a Gouging Fire
No value out of it
I'd be questioning if it was legit
stealing sees a bit meh, want to try a normal one?
yeah
Oh it's probably not but a dex entry is a dex entry
steals are rough. but ngl since u cant steal what has been stolen its cool
Its on home though, so idk how good their anti hack is
You can definitely have hacked mons there LOL
you can just evolve a mon to steal a lot of times
yeah exactly
Yeah home is not perfect for anti hacked mons
seems daft
less do without

what's the Foul Play difference between 0 IV atk and 31 IV atk?
wrong chat tho
like 12 dmg? imma go calc
yeah run that real quick before @dreamy tusk moves it
Grimmsnarl Foul Play vs. 244 HP / 0- Atk / 156+ Def Amoonguss: 42-51 (19 - 23.1%) -- possible 6HKO after Sitrus Berry recovery
3 CIR in a row wtf
Grimmsnarl Foul Play vs. 244 HP / 0- Atk 0 IV / 156+ Def Amoonguss: 36-43 (16.3 - 19.5%) -- possible 7HKO after Sitrus Berry recovery
Oop
I had 10 or so tang teams in a row
yeah I'll pass bud
like its good stuff to use for breeding
just breed it with a 0 IV ditto with a power band
its not tang teams for me
Should I ask the Breeders if they'd want it?
sure idk

no thas crazy unoptimal 😭
thats the team of a dude that made 10th in the FC
Tubnation
purely a Bo1 tam
i think that player that played this team has skill issue
its nice but
A lot of stuff would kinda damped it
it worked cause no one know it was weird shit
is it before worlds
this GC
i know that Iron Valiant would have Encore but eh neat stuff
it’s a one slot counter to zama teams, alex underhill said that’s y he added it but he only brought it once the whole gc lmao
one or two he said on tubtakes
Meanwhile me with CIR and zama being my worst mu and I ran into at least 10 out of the 30
Bro honestly lol
i think i'm gonna un retire my miraidon team
might be for the best tho my lines get better and better
Anyone versed in VGC Draft (Gen 5 specifically) mind helping me out with this team I picked up? Kinda rusty on VGC since I've been on hiatus
I only play Koraidons now
I got... This
Scrafty, Lilligant, and Thundy are huge but like... Wtf does Azelf do
cress is insanely huge too
^ probably the biggest
Oh yeah,
& Cress
If they don't have an answer you just win
(Imo Thundy's bigger bc this is him pre-nerfs)
W1's opponent is: Rain and Perish Trap :))))
i get why you said liligant was huge now
East Coast 
happy 5:19
Man I sure was tired
happy 5:20
Tbh Pikachu's a pain in the neck otherwise Thundurus sweeps
Just lando
Happy 2:21
and pray tell where you see Lando here
happy 10:20

@Hello_Vinnie is protect worth using? it doesn't do any damage :/ feels like a waste of a move
The soul of every VGC player leaving its body reading this
watching his journey through my timeline has been interesting
You guys think myths will ever be legal?
hopefully not
They were once in Sw/Sh
But it was only in ranked because tournaments for Sw/Sh already ended
They're making them all so much more obtainable, so I feel like we might head in that direction
So i think TPCi doesn't want mythicals in tournaments
I wonder if that ranked season was to test waters
eh i’d argue it was more for the fun of it
Probably not because that season didn't have limit in restricteds lol
there were no restrictions whatsoever
im perma losing to 95%% accuracy misses
lmao
How's everyone this fine evening
Lost to 2x 99% accuracy misses earlier, wanted to throw my laptop out the window 🤣

Good man
Well deserved
I would’ve aired out bro
the salt at the end lmao
“pure luck” - the muk smeargle player
I would’ve clapped back
There was salt?
Pffff
“You played this all wrong” you sure about that
Think taunting your smeargle kinda screwed you
If anything you should enjoy bottom tables you play muk smeargle
they should enjoy bottom tables because they didn't do psych up caly, i thought that was always the play for muk smeargle cheese lol
Plus Zac really just wins endgame if shifu died
It didn’t matter
Shifu was healthy and they didn’t kill torn so I kinda just won with Tera
I say uh

That was horribly played

🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧

Does PASRS just not work anymore or do I need to be on a computer for it

@torn parrot https://youtu.be/gFUfUCH0z38?si=nn3tu6AppxhTGN_W
Zacian with Weezing & Regigigas was very popular in Gen 8 with Dynamax in VGC 2022 and has recently got 1st place on the Pokemon Showdown Ladder in Generation 9 Scarlet & Violet Regulation G VGC. 2020 LAIC VGC Champion & 3rd Place at both the 2019 and 2022 Pokemon VGC World Championships tries out a nerfed version in Regulation G to see if they ...
Zacian moment
sick team congrats!!
anything that is Zacian auto approves by Drago
unless you are Regidrago
THANK YOU
mayahoppins has given 1 Gen Rep to eriksp
I’m not like
The CEO of zacian lol
you clearly are in this server+TSN lmao
I mean sure but that shouldn’t affect your opinion on it
Just cuz Regidrago doesn’t work for me doesn’t mean it won’t for others
i mean it depends if you like the horrid Speed tier
ig, also the weezing Zac stuff, I get the idea and concept and it works
Just not for me personally
I understand the way you feel
i did think about before
LUNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I MISSED YOU
I wouldn’t be caught dead using dondozo or ting lu 
Heya
I am however on the fence about stellar blast
Debating if I stay committed to it or switch to sacred sword
Won’t go ground going weak to shifu and rilla kinda sucks
stay to where you are good at
If you good at Stellar Blast then go for it
pawmot up next hopefully
True
I also need to start getting more comfy with losing it’s boost
So i can just, take ir more often
yeah agree with it
Also debating if I change spreads on shifu
Haven’t run into the tclap bolt situation too much
