rustic mountain
#

still trying to optimize csr/zama

#

idk if im bias but that to me is the best duo rn

shadow wind
#

It definitely is

spiral ridge
#

Curious cus still haven’t touched I but are weather wars lot more common?

shadow wind
#

Very consistent but it seems like the mirror is tough

turbid vale
#

wait then reg i

rustic mountain
shadow wind
#

Most of the top dogs(pun intended) don’t rely on weathers

molten oasis
#

I don’t think it’s bad

rustic mountain
#

especially these dumbass imprison players

molten oasis
#

Like at all, I think it’s really good you’re just relying on positioning

dense latch
#

i saw someone running imprison on both csr and zama lmao

molten oasis
#

So I don’t get why everyone else is lowkey hating on it

rustic mountain
molten oasis
#

Ok MORE reliant on positioning

#

Because you want kyogre to be at like 70-max hp

#

Or you’re relying on pulse

rustic mountain
#

usually around 75% range it starts to be weaker then pulse iirc

#

maybe im misremembering but yea

#

makes sense

#

i feel the main difference is

dense latch
#

sometimes i look up moves from pokemon on google forgetting they're like actual stuff most of the time

rustic mountain
#

u only need 1 spout now really

dense latch
#

had to scroll a bit to find pokemon water spout

rustic mountain
#

if u get the right spout out, idc if my kyogre even goes down

#

being as its not the pure vocal point anymore

solid frigate
# turbid vale wait then reg i

so rn trick room has split into 3

Hard TR,which dedicate to use trick room to sweep opponents,also the hardest to use (Palkia CIR or Dialga CIR )
Soft TR,you can go for non TR but its more like oppoturnisticly using TR for some use cases (CIR Lunala or CIR Kyogre )
Tailroom,basically Tailwind or TR mode build in and you can be more flexible on how you use it (CIR+Any fast restricteds like Miraidon or Zacian)

It depends what you want

rustic mountain

rustic mountain
#

hard tr

astral kelp
#

lol ikr

dense latch
#

hard tr has the lowest floor imo yea

solid frigate
#

easy MU most of the time if pokemon don't have anything else to counter TR

dense latch
#

but as you improve you need to think a few turns ahead to use hard tr at its best

solid frigate
#

which is why you rarely see me run it

rustic mountain
solid frigate
#

its linear sure

molten oasis
solid frigate
#

but its easy enough to use it

molten oasis
#

One spout is so much value

rustic mountain
molten oasis
#

Then zacian is the cleanup crew in the back and it’s like totally fine for the rest of the game

rustic mountain
#

generally or ur able to have em both out on the field ideally to threaten anything on the other side no matter tera and what not

molten oasis
#

Idk I might just, need to try and keep my mind straight and not let other people chance my opinion cuz I lowkey think swordfish is really good

rustic mountain
solid frigate
#

i think the hardest thing for hard TR rn is

Which restricted pair you want

molten oasis
rustic mountain
#

not saying swordfish is gna be miraidon lvl dominance but

molten oasis
#

Cuz it hasn’t felt bad lol

rustic mountain
#

maybe its better then wat ppl think

#

i dont play vs it much rn

Maybe encore would be better though

Isn't it crazy how 90 for a defense stat is considered low for a restricted

left bobcat

The minimum should be like at least 100-110

astral kelp

molten oasis
#

Hm

shadow wind
#

Only time I've used Hydrapple was Reg H with Torkoal

#

Nah it's literally imports of all my teams

cyan smelt
#

Is that in case showdown wipes your teams

Nah it's cause showdown was slowing down

lost sun
shadow wind
#

Yup

lost sun
#

250 teams is crazy

If you go to the bottom of the team builder you can click a backup button and it'll put all your teams into text and it'll all be highlighted

#

Maya has like 900 teams I swear

lost sun
#

900 teams for what 💀

shadow wind

Why what's wrong with Farig?

dense latch
lost sun
shadow wind
#

Could just go Ogerpon

lost sun
#

no TR support other than hands

shadow wind
#

Do you need TR support?

lost sun
#

cress would give me more speed control against tw heal up and change miraidon to levitate

shadow wind
#

You have Ogre

#

The big bad of TR is CIR

lost sun
#

rock pon?

shadow wind
#

Either that or water pon

molten oasis
#

This sucks

shadow wind
#

What does?

molten oasis
#

The team

Losing to Mirai dusk mane, CIR NDW

shadow wind
#

Yeah I hate that dude too

lost sun
molten oasis
#

Shifu’s also struggling

cyan smelt
#

How about howl gouging fire

lost sun
#

but mirai gives a 93% chance to 1 shot

#

and if I use cress I could terra elec mirai and swap it to levitate

cyan smelt
#

Sounds gimmicky and gets shut down by taunt

molten oasis
#

I hate Grimmsnarl

shadow wind
#

Twave spam?

molten oasis

252+ SpA Thundurus-Therian Wildbolt Storm vs. 132 HP / 12 SpD Kyogre: 114-134 (59.3 - 69.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

252+ SpA Raging Bolt Thunderbolt vs. 132 HP / 12 SpD Kyogre: 132-156 (68.7 - 81.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO its a bit better

#

maybe i should just check for scarf ogre

cyan smelt
#

bolt doesn't insta die to water moves

rustic mountain
#

also its sp bulk is very good

shadow wind
#

140 spdef

#

Still less than my bird

astral kelp
#

oh jesus 140

#

maybe rilla then

rustic mountain
#

not really many things r gna b hitting it for a 1hko u gta slow play most times and either nullify its damage w/ wide guard or sun, outpace and double tap or utlilize resists to either chip it down or force it to tera

astral kelp

252 Atk Rillaboom Wood Hammer vs. 132 HP / 140 Def Kyogre in Grassy Terrain: 242-288 (126 - 150%) -- guaranteed OHKO

cyan smelt
#

i'm just worried about the ursaluna mainly because i run tailroom with indeedee and roaring moon

rustic mountain
#

variant i saw had lando over ursa

cyan smelt
#

even scarier

astral kelp
#

doesnt outspeed tho fuck me

cyan smelt
#

lando the real mvp of gen 9

rustic mountain
#

is it?

cyan smelt
#

lando, urshifu and rilla

rustic mountain
#

nah incin urshi rilla

cyan smelt
#

true

rustic mountain
#

lando def 1 of the best comp mons ever tho

cyan smelt
#

imprison zama is funny af

astral kelp
#

i just reallyhate running thunder clap and indeedee in the same team it feels so wrong

cyan smelt
#

terrain runs out and can be overwritten too

astral kelp
#

yeah i knoww

molten oasis
#

kinda bummed the wake concept failed

#

its also really bad into tr, however i really like single strike

turbid ruin
#

hey does anyone want to join my esports team

astral kelp
#

YOWTCH

vocal plume
#

Damn I'm nowhere with this trick room team

#

I'm so lost

cyan smelt
#

What's your team

rustic mountain
astral kelp
#

my team is finally feeling good

vocal plume
#

Or at least both with TR

astral kelp
cyan smelt
#

Indeedee redirects for lunala, otherwise lunala takes hits and you want to keep shadow shield as long as possible

rustic mountain
#

generally u want wg on lunala atm so its hard to fit tr on it as a move

vocal plume
cyan smelt
#

You can run heal pulse on Indeedee to heal any damage lunala takes

vocal plume
#

This includes giving Lunala wg as well

#

I just need two more mons

#

Was considering Hydrapple and Kingambit

#

Or I could bring Torn and someone else

lofty tartan
#

Hydrapple is just so bad

vocal plume
lofty tartan
#

Yeah raids and vgc are not even remotely similar. You can raid with just about anything.

molten oasis
#

i wish hydrapple was good

vocal plume
#

Guess I'm getting back to thinking

molten oasis
#

its just not, that typing sucks

vocal plume
#

I'll probs run a Tailwind team on the side so I can mix and match

molten oasis
#

lunala zac seems a lot better than i thought, wide guard is really nice for it

vocal plume
#

Then I'm taking a break and going to the gym cause I've been tweaking with this team for probably 2 hours

lofty tartan
#

Already did my workout earlier. SealFlex

cyan smelt
#

I feel like I hardly bring lunala and Groudon together

#

It's because I usually want tr or tailwind

vocal plume
#

I think I've also come to the decision that Terapagos Lunala just won't work

cyan smelt
#

Terapagos zacian is good

vocal plume
#

I'm working with limited resources here lol

cyan smelt
#

Terapagos is an awkward mon to use

lofty tartan
#

I'm at work right now though so it'll be a few hours

lofty tartan
#

Eh suit yourself 🤷

vocal plume
#

I'll probably find a pairing somewhere

lofty tartan
#

I'm never gonna use the non shiny anyway lol

vocal plume
#

It just feels cheap being gifted legendaries yk

#

Even if they are good ones

#

I could try Lunala Zama

cyan smelt
#

Kinda some overlap there

#

Both wide guard users

lofty tartan
#

How is it cheap being given one? It's a consolation prize for finishing Sword lol. It's literally a guarantee

vocal plume
lofty tartan
#

So like it's gonna happen either after an arbitrary task or just stumbling onto one

vocal plume
#

I might find one in the Shield DLC tho tbf

lofty tartan
#

You won't

cyan smelt
#

It's not in shield

vocal plume
#

🤦‍♂️

lofty tartan
#

Zacian/Zamazenta do not appear in raids

#

Or Dynamax Adventures rather

cyan smelt
#

Box legendary means you get em as part of the story

lofty tartan
#

Yup.

#

And buying a whole 50 dollar game for a single poke is silly

vocal plume
lofty tartan
#

Yeah there's a few exclusive Dynamax Adventure legendaries but you can just get someone to share a path with you for those

vocal plume
#

That's not too bad then

rustic mountain
cyan smelt
#

I'm thinking about replacing wide guard on lunala with tr because having tr only on Indeedee feels not great

#

Prone to non prankster taunt

vocal plume
cyan smelt
#

Better than playing through the shield DLC to find out you can't get it lol

molten oasis
#

i think moonblast is really nice

rustic mountain
#

atleast u have the threat of meteor beam tho or yea just go moonblast

#

ive seen a lot of tera fairy lunala

cyan smelt
#

+1 moonblast hurts

vocal plume
rustic mountain
#

just transfer them thru home

vocal plume
molten oasis
rustic mountain
#

y r they stuck there?

#

im unsure wat u mean

vocal plume
#

You have to transfer Caly and Spectrier separately

rustic mountain
#

unfuse them then put them thru home?

vocal plume
rustic mountain
#

not sure the issue

#

no i wasnt actually asking i meant like wats the problem

vocal plume
#

I needed to get Shield again

rustic mountain
#

oh u jus dont have the game

#

i think its cartridge based if u dont have the cart u had it on originally those guys are gone

vocal plume
rustic mountain
#

theres no cloud storage for pokemon

cyan smelt
#

The save data is stored on the switch though

pine lotus
#

howdy yall

cyan smelt
#

But yeah you need the cartridge to transfer stuff through home I think

rustic mountain
#

the memory is cartridge based for pokemon games 🤨 if u lose ur cartridge ur save is gone idt any backup does anything

pine lotus
#

saved data is all on the switch

cyan smelt
#

I lost my violet cartridge and bought the sv DLC pack and it was still there

pine lotus
#

yee

rustic mountain
#

u used a diff cart and still had everything?

cyan smelt
#

Yes

vocal plume
#

It doesn't change a thing
