Iker playing the MU super well
Ope that seals shit
If Víctor comes back from this, it'll be fuckin impressive
Should've hit Pao
Damn that was something
@foggy lodge AY
ZAMA IN FINALS
People gonna probably talk shit like "oh Zam only made finals cuz no one cares about this Reg"
Shut up
has eternatus won anything before>
i would google but idk the pro gamer website
ashmalah
Not in Gen 9 at least
thanks monke tickles you
wtf
Is Kyogre shiny locked in any of the games? I'm asking because somebody has a shiny Kyogre and idk if it's hacked or not
Hehehe stawp it 
Wait I just started watching Seville regionals a eternatus made top 4?
You can get it via Dynamax Adventures in SwSh iirc
Though I'd check the trading rules to make sure it's not a trade ban in the server
yeah
Yup it's on stream now
But it's down a game
Okay just checking, it's not somebody here it was somebody I was battling just now
Oh then yeah that's possible
I'm just hoping it's not hacked because I lost to it
Wouldn't really matter anyways, but I recommend we don't engage in that talk here
Okay
Man that set was a steamroll
Why did he go for sludge bomb
He kinda loses there anyways
Well yeah
Paonite
Zamazenta wins
LET'S FUCKING GO CHAT
Yay Zamazenta!
Ok, Regulation G is officially over and it ended the best way possible, lfg
me who has a reg g local today,,,,
Are you hit by the juice of perpetual sadness by this
LMAO
HELL YEAH
Didn't do that well, 2-4 in swiss
Damn
Everyone was just too good ahaha 
Lol
It happens, anything can happen bro
Good shot though
Are you excited for the first ever Regulation I regionals next week!
Yup
I'll try again on the next Ball League, whenever they announce it. Hopefully I at least get a neutral record.
Can't wait to see what's used
It's going to be brilliant!
We hope for these times 
if i see all CSR in top cut im not watching it lmao
A Zamazenta defeated a Calyrex Shadow team!
Nah bro's tweaking
Shoooooo
just now catching up with the stream
this CSR player in top 16 played like booty
he can just spore psychic for 3 turns in a row and probably win the game
throwing moment
Sounds like a me moment
It was fun but man New Zealand is so itty bitty
I lost to first place because of a crit in the last turn twice 2/1 it was sooo close
The itsy bitsy spiderrrrrr
aw man just a couple players away from having a top 4 bracket after the swiss rounds
Yeah I wishhh
Apparantly there was this other big event around the same (like a nerdy art con) so there was a bit less than usual
that makes sense, it’s also the end of the format and so players are a lot less willing to show up
and unfortunately they made some changes to locals this season that made them less appealing for people to go to, so hopefully they have some fixes/adjustments next year
gonna play a bit of Shadow Rider at the end of Reg G life Cycle
What happened?
Might as well
Going 12-1 and getting the same CP as someone who went 2-2 is crazy
holy shit lol is that real? do you have the johannesburg results? i don’t see it on pokedata
I heard that all of oce gets to send 20 people to world's which since new Zealand gets like no tournaments compared to Australia it means that unless I. Move there it's pretty much impossible for to make it to world's
I wish it was more separated by country
I mean did you see that it was done in someone's house?
long story short, the way that locals used to work is that there was a limit on how many locals a TO (tournament organizer) could run, but no limit on how many locals a store could run.
Most cities have one or two stores that host VGC, but more than one or two TOs who are willing to host. That was fine in the old system because the TOs could just rotate who hosted and the store was happy to host sometimes even 2 locals per week (at least in my area).
Now, with the changes, stores can only host one Challenge per month and one Cup per quarter (3 months). That means for VG especially, you’re looking at way less locals because the TOs who want to host need to find new stores which is really difficult
For anyone interested in what’s happening at the South African SPE
1. Judges have been using ChatGPT in an attempt to answer judge rulings.
2. Day 2 is currently being played at someones home…..
can i be brave and say that it’s absolutely crazy that i went 12-1 at a regional and got half the points of someone who went 2-2 this weekend
Someone found the house where they are playing btw lmao
Wait once per month wtf
LOL the strats
LMAO
I wonder what the neighbors thought when they saw like 15 cars pull up to their house
Wait can we earn points in online tournaments?
The neighbours looking at the big pikachu getting into the house to congrats the winner
Only the GCs
LMFAO
The neighbors when the whole house starts counting Population Bomb
I feel like having more tournaments would be nice to equalise the like regional advantagez
How many people are in VGC actually
Like online I mean
There was like 20 people for that event iirc
I know TCG should be full/almost full but idk vgc
😭😭😭
Godam like 20 people in a kitchen
That's the same as my local scene
It's why shit was so low
I mean like
The thing that people aren't keeping in mind with this argument is that they JUST started allowing events in South Africa
Tho one thing that was nice about the tournament is thag I got time to talk a bunch with every single person that attended
What's wrong with South Africa huh?
the only issue with online events counting for worlds is that you can’t guarantee who’s playing them. It’s always a little tricky to have worlds points on the line when you can easily have other people play for you or just stream your games on discord to a group of people
It's it like pretty good
Like sure it's wild that going 12-1 and going 2-2 in this context is weird but keep in mind rn it's probably around the same
Ah yeah that does suck
Nothing
Lost context
They should do online tournaments again
And not only GCs which are basically ladder tournaments
Obviously less prizes than irl events but idk
bringing back the players cup would be cool
Yessss
What's the players Cup?
And I think with the VR tours they can see people are fine with online tours
a pandemic era tournament during sword shield where it was all online and organized officially by pokemon
Wolfey won one
ay yea thag sounds awesome
easier back then because it was closed teamsheet but still doable for sure
just need a different system
Idk i feel like that's just expected I would be surprised if he didn't lmao
It was quite big
It's actually fucking crazy how he makes the game look so easy
Oh really cts
yeah, SV is the first games to have OTS
It was also the only time he had a chance to win one so if he didn't he wouldn't be able to say he has won every type of events
Bro I need to practice ots. In the tournament I was overthinking trying to play around cc on his urshifu dark only to realize HE WASN'T RJNNJNG IT
LOL
lmao
Like on the third game
Bros filling the tournament wins pokedex
Btw what do you guys think of just straight up replacing amoonguss to use brute bonnet instead in reg I?
It doesn't underspeed cir but it does have sucker punch
Being weak to body press feels so ass tho
It's also decently tankier
If you’re running groudon, it could work. I don’t think it would work in any other team, even koraidon stuff
I just don’t see it working as much with korai bc of speed tiers, since with amoonguss would have a better anti caly ice
Ri was considering doing that on my wheezing team since it's like less antisynergy lol
Doesn't koraidon just wipe cir anywyas
Wait does koraidon one tap indeedde
It's been the piece used on those teams
Anyways, how good do y’all think calyrex shadow + zacian is?
it’s tough to have two restricteds weak to incin
I coped it for like 2 weeks
Its not it
It's like zacian is great but he doesn't really cover csrs weaknesses
Also is it just me or is he just weak to everything zamazenta is weak to but instead of amazing body press it gets 20% chance of hitting play rough lmao
Dude this guy at the tournament brought zacian and he missed like 4/5 play roughs it's actually fucking insane
Yeah let's make Incineroar LeBron James
Also @next stump (sorry for double ping)
What's your reaction on Zamazenta winning a Reg G regional again
Me gustaría compartir una reflexión acerca del SPE de Sevilla, y es que creo que ha sido el evento europeo de menor nivel desde pandemia.
Esto debido a ser SPE y no Regio, pero también al coincidir final de season/regulacion con una ciudad de difícil acceso desde fuera
(Sigue)
can someone translate
GASP ITS PATRICK
Y'all think CSR Kyogre could do smth? I mean, they don't have any real anti synergy, but wide guard or mons with a high spdef shut the duo down
this feels ass
Nope
I mean it is but yeah I can see how Horoark is hot garbage through and through
when people used it to counter maushold annihilape and bro somehow still didn't achieve anything
Hello friends, im looking to test out pokemon for competitive play. Want to help me out then lmk. I want to test out a Snorlax Build so feel free use something he is weak against . Im just looking to see if the snorlax i built is good for singles or doubles
@mighty stump
your son
also ummmm your username feels ummm inappropriate btw

Snirlax is kinda ass rn
just let Tofu do the job anyway
why Tofu specifically?
I need help making a team
@karmic oakPlease state format and ruleset
Ermmm the one on ladder right now
That’s 2 restricted right?
Ah just checked not in place till Thursday
But I have most of a team built just need thoughts on last 2 memvers
cuz he is the snorlax guy
@lofty tartan look what wife got for me after she got 2nd in a cup,,,,,🥺🥺
ok thats cute
Pompompurin is my goat
Anyone got a CIR I can borrow for Grand Challenge?
you mean like having it?
Well I'd give it back after
i probably can't i have few projects coming up
+EVs are for the Tailroom team anyway
That'd probably be okay since I'm planning on running it with imprison so fast is fine
show us what u got then
Thinking of going for kyogre tornadus miraidon and amoongus
Was debating maybe throwing lando in there aswell
no Urshifu?
I don’t really know would it be worth having another water type?
This is awesome. Sorry I just got back from my second Easter get-together
All of my holidays exist two or three times and it's exhausting
So if I have urshifu who would be the 6th?
yeah cuz you just go Hyper Offense Core for Mirai Ogre,i have tried it as my main core and
Its just too strong-
sure
you might have to redo the EVs yourself though
So wait I use ogrepon also?
and tera
We love to see it
Ogerpon during my testing is pretty mediocre on Mirai Ogre imo
But Amoonguss would be fine
So rn we got kyogre mirai tornadus amoongus urshifu
Cornerstone is pretty hot no matter how you slice it
yeah its just during testing for me its underwhelming
Could be wrong imo but like yeah
Could I rock lando at 6th ?
You could
Just tryna slot in my shinys to save me hunting for another pokemon 😭
As a shiny hunter, myself, you should never limit yourself to just what you have available.
exactly
But Lando is fine on a rain team 🤷
Well I mean idm hunting another but if lando is a good option I could use I will
But got a few days till new format
It runs for a few months so you have plenty of time
+Miraidon Kyogre core is rather Hyper Offensive anyway so Urshifu Lando isnt bad
tried two combos for Kyurem white
Miserable to play
Oh really what was the team?
Kyogre KWhite
Zacian Kwhite
one of them is alright but the other one is just
Why make myself suffer
I mean I was thinkin of maybe doing a kyurem black team give him a assault vest and set up snow plus aurora veil
No.
And just hope he don’t die
GOD NO
Y.😭
Kyurem Black could ironically worse than Mewtwo-
Hot take i know but yeah it feels worse than Mewtwo
I mean his stats look good no?
Yeaaaaaaaaah stats aren't everything
Look at the movepool
At least mewtwo can use its movepool and its basically worse CSR stats and Ability
KYUREM BLACK DOES NOT EVEN HAVE A CONSISTENT ICE MOVE
That’s crazy
holy shit look at this dudes murkrow set
I mean atleast give him ice spinner or something they fumbled the bag
Dark/Flying
Insomnia, Super Luck, Prankster (Hidden)
60/85/42/85/42/91
405
@lofty tartan and i am not joking i put Kyurem black the lowest cuz its movepool is just so bad-
dude ikr its so stupid
loaded nice kyurem black isnt actually the worse thing ive tried
yeah for surelmao
I shiny hunted him with the intent on using him😢
unironically lugia is probablt better than kyurem black
My goat is making moves
its not escaping anti meta cuz of Koraidon
I may still try him is my kyogre team is buns I can change him
And lowkey I would have Koraidon and Zama higher than CIR
Erm actually he’s in meta
shut
Honestly would just drag Kyogre lower
So word of advice by SkrawVGC
That was pitiful damage what on earth
Looks so goated just to be so buns im devastated 😭
thats why its sucks
Pitiful damage for a 170 Atk stat-
like come on-
strongest Move is like Dragon Claw if you want to talk about consistent
yeah like it literally does no fuckibng damage even with 170 atk
its so stupid
Okay so I’m praying kyogres good then otherwise I gotta hunt a whole new team😭
definently good but Kyurem Black just drags it down
blizzard has that freeze chance
Yeah no kyurem black would be an alternative team
Just cause I have him chilling in a box rn
kyurem black is nice because he can get really fast with scale shot
Is latios able to work at all?
yeah but you gonna work harder than you need to
dies to Koraidon
Oh you Tera'd? dies to Kyogre,Terapagos,Miraidon etc
like holy hell
hey hey im tryna be positive 
no i can't give Kyurem Black any positives
@karmic oak if you wanna play consistent just try ones that are from Calyrex Honse to Meta if you want consistent duos or close to no misery
i was running this for a whole it was actually really fun
What in the clusterfuck am I looking at
Kyurem Black and Hitmontop are both so bad it's not even funny
Also why are you on Regulation G still
Last event for Reg G happened, get to some double restricted my guy
exactly
That was ages ago lol
The team
Yeah if you read what he said with the picture you'll see that it's an older team lol
put kyogre in meta and label groudon/zacian tier 'around' and its a decent list tho id argue some of the niche ones belong in why
which ones tho
What is Solgaleo's niche bro
That's a lot of words though
dialga, palkia, kyruem, solgaleo, dusk mane
like why r u choosing any of those guys
Yeah Solgaleo kinda dookie
Yeah
Still kinda dookie
chat do i bring swordfish or korai csr weezing to millwaukee
Wait
Palkia has seen use
both dont seem great
And I'd argue Dialga is probably fine
korai csr is good but idk bout weezing
in terms of what? the past? this is a new format what is palkias place
same for dialga like why dialga what does it do for u
Idk what it is
But I've seen people use it
Idk why
Tryna figure it out tbh
yea on cir/tr stuff that is not good
Yeah go ahead and just use Zam CSR (totally not me
)
Idk I think it's fine but for both it's kinda like
Dialga or Palkia just benefit off of having another restricted
That's really it
was bouta say av zam for the memes but then remembered it needs the shield to transform
Dialga works with CIR and Kyogre honestly and thats it
At least it can land its moves lmao
unlike Someone
i'm talking to you Palkia
they do but so does every restricted and theres quite a few that are just outright better. in other formats kyogre was a lot better so palkia had more of a place (dmax was a huge bonus in swsh), and similarly w/ dialga not necessarily for kyogre but dmax and then benefit of a solid typing but between power creep yet again and a different mechanic they just are there. like sure u could pick them and win some ladder games but it still belongs in why for me
Some people have ran non shield zam lol
Now I’m fucking up
may god bless their sanity
I think Kyogre is better rn than ya think
Reg G ended so this are my final thoughts
I finally have an argument for Eternatus lol I always thought it wasn't bad
I think it was for like the 10 extra speed points lmfao
its just toxic stall just makes it like a headache imo
But its stats are almost Perfect imo
not enough to justify using palkia as my restricted slot vs having tons of other tools able to handle it otherwise
i do think kyogres good
Dialga can be cool it also works as anti Kyogre
Is this based off results or just personal feel btw just curious
And doesn't insta die to Miraidon lmao
seems reasonable
Steel Dragon typing my goat
cuz if it was for results pagos and csr would be lower
???
Did pagos have more than kyo? Idk just feel like saw kyo more
idk if id have zama in super good at the end of the format but its fine
My memory could be shitting itself
Pagos won japan nationals and that's it
Maybe not LMAO
Just because I didn't want to argue with monke ngl LOL
Real
yea pagos is another that never quite got there much
Idk
I'll give Palkia a slight chance but idt it's winning anything
Or even hitting like top cuts
and thats the meteor beam sets
Pretty close in some tournaments but always lost in the finals
I think Palkia just
Exists
Is anyone running pagos in reg I?
HEY
IT BETTER BE UP THERE BITCH
yea i think its moreso that monke, some1 might day 2 w/ it randomly but its just so underwhelming to me on initial impression
I've tried pagos csr and its kinda cool
tried to with Zacian
That's honestly my thoughts on it tbh
Alright
I just know it’s a huge Tera hog and another restricted makes that situation sound worse
pagos korai also got top 4 at the last VR
Like I'm not saying Palkia's cracked
I'm just saying it does exist
And I was labbing with it too
I need to actually play reg I some more
honestly Pagos only has like 4 usable pairs
With Zacian,With CSR,With Lunala,With Ho-Oh
btw
Really both those guys love Tera that’s interesting
Cool
Oh wait Max that tierlist is Reg G
Yeah no Zam could be lower
Don't believe in the Ho-Oh bait gang
But it's still objectively giod
its good
Bro you're tweaking
I loved zama in G but some stuff definitely better
Ho Oh I think has a fair shot in double restricted
i am unsure on ho-oh but it def is not in the why category
Like if there is a restricted in the middle range that I think can absolutely pop tf off, it's gotta be Ho Oh
it has a decent amount of reasonable use case
i just dont know if its sustainable wen the format actually takes off
i put it the lowest anyway
I see top cuts for Ho Oh
Idt it'll ever win
MAYBE very early but
😭
marco doesnt count
The humble rock cudgel
Is there anything that takes less than 90% from astral body press
Indeedee
34% is kinda iffy for a Ho-Oh who resist Fighting
u mean fighting
And that's not sword of ruin boosted
Horoark
takes 0%
lol
Farig
might be the meta call
only issue is horoark sucks
252 SpA Life Orb Calyrex-Shadow Astral Barrage vs. 60 HP / 252 SpD Assault Vest Iron Hands: 79-95 (33.3 - 40%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
+1 252+ Def Zamazenta-Crowned Body Press vs. 60 HP / 20 Def Iron Hands: 109-129 (45.9 - 54.4%) -- 49.6% chance to 2HKO
I mean Technically Hands but it really based on rolls
and yes i am using sample spread cuz i am lazy
I remember doubling up into Hands with Zama Pao and killing it
Bro might be onto something
It was crazy
Like some turns they would protect their mon and attack with Hands and I would just kill it
PFFT
It just needs one drain punch on pao and it’s safe dw guys!
Idk I got pissed off at a regular Zoroark today 
How lol
anyways I could never hate Zama with him I had my 5-3 at the spearpillar
illusion moment
My dumbass got tricked into thinking it was an Indeedee with the wrong ability
i love zama
Which is a shitty result but it was my first tournament ever and it was big lol
And genuinely was getting mad like BRO WHY YOU RUNNING KNOCK OFF AND CRUNCH ON DEEDEE
Our new comp helper people 
Istg If I used sludge bomb amoonguss instead of clear smog
I also fumbled the lead in my win and in if I had lead urshifu pelipper I would have won
vro sees zoroark in mon select and an indeedee without psy field and thinks “oh this mf pick the other ability” 😭 😭
Bro assumed own tempo
i don't think i have a second team for Reg I currently besides Mirai Ogre
But hopefully it changes
Hey I fought a Chlorophyll Whimsicott the other day so
who tf is smeargle
the demon
Some French guy idk
was it like a tr team??
Clove say that to yourself again
Why would you want a double speed ability in TR my love
no like the indeedee zoroark
Ohh ok
LMAO
Nope
Mirai Groudon
Indee on a mirai team?
i could only see own tempo being used to neg fake out but psy terrain does that already
Nope to that too
why did he use indeedee
Hey we fuck up sometimes
can i get an ots on this man???
I know you could so say moments about me but hey I’m not orange
orange moment
Well if it really was own tempo indee which sounds like he didn’t see it cus it was zoroark
Maybe so it isn’t a terrain war
Wow
Talking shit about staff huh
I'm calling mods
brooo i found a super old reg g tier list
@tranquil kraken this yo man he just fell for a zoroark
Super early meta so basically from a year ago
Ah yes I felt it
Oh?
wtf was I cookin LMAO
tell that to the past that Miraidon Won worlds lmao
BRUH
HAHAHA WTF STONE HENGE DOING HERE
Miraidon is in B tier in this tier list💀
cir in c tier??? send this man to the guillotine
DARK LANDO?
TORN AND WHIMS IN C WTF
I was cooking sneasler long ago sorry gang
@spiral ridge stewwa do u have shield without zam caught.:,.
Okay I’ll forgive RM that took a while
Same with CIR
But korai torn 😭
dark shifu
I could tell this was made when Chi CSR Indeedee was all of the ladder
NAH THIS TIER LIST IS BEYOND COOKED
Umm actually maybe yes why
Absolutely
Dark shifu is kinda eh
i want love ball one for milwaukee
Lemme go checkkk
yay!
I was gonna offer you mine but I forget you're so cute and demure
Why did no one mention the fucking garchomp LMAO
Name?
i might do a tier list on the relevant Mons
GIRLHELL1999
oh scotty i saw this awesome fucking hoodie i gotta tell you about
I remembered my switch case was downstairs came down to it. Forgot this case was empty and it’s up in my bed
the place I just left.
Transfem doom girl
actually no i wanna do reactor
You would be doom girl it started cus his bunny died
lemme think of names for a little
it was funny valentine’s back scars on the back of the hoodie and the text of the corpse heart on the front it was so tough i gotta get that shit man
I caught the zama in this save :(
want me to run through it? How much time
Wait maybe I didn’t?
I don’t see a zama anywhere in my boxes
Does it say I have no main quest before I’ve caught the zama?
It says adventure to your hearts content rn
Chef boyardee
mhm found building group on a team i really like

Ok good we like to see that
Team has some of my fave stinkers on it
Hop hate was undeserved man I didn’t mind this kid
Oh fuck he’s facing me
Is my team busted or shit rn
We may be chilling
Eww I'm your friend? Disgusting
nvm bru dawn wings lowk fraud
0 Atk Incineroar Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 164 HP / 60 Def Shadow Shield Lunala: 128-152 (54.9 - 65.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
0 Atk Incineroar Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Prism Armor Necrozma-Dawn-Wings: 174-207 (85.2 - 101.4%) -- 6.3% chance to OHKO
im staying w lunala
Trick room I think?
i guessed as much
It’s a solid C tier
i'll stick with dawn wings for now
NDW is like
Purely Psyspam+Hard TR
i love psyspam lowk
i had amoongus on my hard tr at one point but then swapped it for a restricted
Gotcha
aughhhhh i feel im not piloting it right though
I’ll watch you sometime
i usually let indeedee die t2 after tr t1 so i get a free swap
like depending on the setup i js usually go ind-f + cir start into follow me tr
if its csr open i tr ind-f and prot cir
Keeping indee alive can be useful
Helping hand and follow me great
Plus uhh if you’re goggles anti sus sleep
How good y'all think duos like Zacian Lunala or CSR Kyogre are? Been thinking about building around those, but idk if it's even worth the while
I’ll watch backseat you some time again clove
and then once tr ends i have no way to get it up again bc mfs target cir
Does dawn not have it?
cir and ndw die b4 i can get tr off again 💔
Also don’t be scared to act like they’ll think you’re doing TR
Protect or attack can throw em off
yea i usually just atk when tr ends
Your mons are still mons without TR
i remember fighting a guy with jumpluff that had tr on it 💔
lol wut
vro tr jumpluff t1 when i clicked tr to neg and i thought he would go for it again so i didnt click tr t2 then he set up tailwind
Discombobulated
I still have yet to play reg I so I’ll just spitball cook a team and face tou eoon
Gimme a restricted actually
uhhh like any?
anyways i finally done making it-
Jesus
Christ
im be so fr i have not seen a ruin mon, hands, or oger in a hot minute
What
Unofficial TorrentAegisVGC Reg G Tier list (Controversial)
I’m gonna be honest
Play more cus you should definitely see oger and hands at very least
And a chi yu
Or pao
i have seen like hands and chien and oger fire/stone like once each on ladder
not a yu in a while
Shocking
what is your Elo
like 1100 😭
ok no wonder
hmmm
protect is always a good choice when building a moveset but i feel maybe snarl on bolt would also be nice
I was gonna say this but I knew I could only say it in a mean way lol
People do this
AV bolt
Tankier more chunk damage than big bits of damage
Raging Bolt @ Booster Energy

Change to AV with bulk like that
we just gonna ignore vivillon p2 comps?
Was that in reg G?
Reg G
Yes I was saying that asking emma cus I didn’t know
dude if thats reg H i will put Vivi P2 in like A tier cuz i like that comp
so be to av and prot to snarl
Yeah sure
Cus iirc bolt doesn’t need his ability? It’s helpful but I don’t think all AV bolt had a way to prod it
Never used it myself
well its a bonus for damage purposes
Mhm
i used that during reg G wave 1
https://pokepast.es/7b16155f347b4718 the wonders
ignore tera fairy tera blast clodsire
Try charkoal tork
wait im stupid

i really like Urshifu Dark in this team ;-;
Band darkshifu would prob be great yeah but clod time
why cant indeedee get expanding force
Faer
I’m gonna sit you down and hold your hand gently as I say this
Tell me what psychic terrain does
weird ass
male one does
Forgot a word just answer
What does psychic terrain do clover
ok we drop fake out for heal pulse
NO
yeah cuz beats Shadow rider anyway but yeah- i feel clod is just a huge liability-
i will probs make a second team that is just this but band darkshifu instead of clod
Also give indee goggles over seed you have no sus answer when it’s in TR
but not today
sus
Protect over solar beam tork
Dropped specs you can be safer
grr

https://pokepast.es/804d25ae4e534fc7 - Does anyone have any idea for the walking wake set?
I was using specs but didn't like how restricting it was
like isnt blueberry and teal mask separate things>?

Smeargle gotta be the worst mon to ever exist
I feel like I need taunt on my team
It just doesn't fit well
what does smeargle do, is it spore or decorate?
Follow me to let CIR set up TR then I get shmoked by Iron ball Kyogre
you need spread moves then
then imprison
That doesn't just slot into a team
well then you need your own tr answer
Gee thanks for the suggestion
it's all good to go fast but you need something that can work in tr
Tell me something that lives Glacial Lance Water Spout in rain that functions on a sun team
rockpon
Are you on crack
How does that live Glacial Lance and Water Spout
And Firepon for sun teams is just better
i'm just trying to help, idk how to live multiple spread moves
Tbf atp you need prio or wide guard
Or imprison TR. Nothing lives that
Maybe Ursh with bulk
Or Tera Water Moon
Wide guard isn't a terrible plan but it's only so good when the mons can just click single target moves
i guess rotom-w is out of the question then
Was bro ever in the question??
then wide guard it is
Wide guard is literally such a nothing tool though
it's not nothing to force your opponent to click single target moves
When those single target moves OHKO the wide guard mon it is

Ah heck nah
i need to play bo3 again

ili when are you becoming world champ
Shoulda ss that notif lmfao
When you guys are making teams in showdown do you keep the order of your moves the same across mons/teams?
do you guys order least powerful moves to most powerful
Depends I guess
My order of moves is like this
Priority attacking moves
Stab Attacking moves
Coverage Attacking moves
Status moves
Protect
Like this set just makes me cry
It should be
Moongeist
Moonblast
CM
Wide guard
I go
-STAB descending based on damage/accuracy
-Non-STAB, usually but doesn't have to be a secondary type (proceeded by any non-damaging moves of the same type); if more than one type, see above descending order
-All normal-type moves last specifically, going down from attacks to status/protective measures
Addendum: if my primary-type move is just status, I still put that first
I think my favourite archetype is screens
Groudon just took less than 50 from sun boosted lorb CC from Koraidon

Like wow
yeah i really want to make ateam with grimmsnarl
but specifically parting shot grimmsnarl
because thunderwave is the worst and most broken move
I’m currently testing out taunt Grimmsnarl
I’m not a huge fan of prio taunt just cause it gets blocked by a lot but that’s why it’s testing
But besides twave I usually run scary face
Although to be fair prankster taunt is also very useful
i wanna make a team thats just a fuck ton of switching in and out
Don’t want something to protect for the next couple turns? Taunt em
Amoonguss? Taunt em
sounds really good with csr
I mean imprison protect does the same thing
Oh yeah
i really want to make a ho oh team that abuses regenerator
with screens and parting shot grimm
I originally had that but with ho oh Groudon and it probably didn’t work too well cause there weren’t any good switch ins for Grimmsnarl
bro wanna be Sierra Dawn so badly
holy shit chat am i about to run u-turn koraidon
chat am i COOKING
prolly miraidon and remove slither wing thunderous put in a scarfshifu
i feel bad for all of the Koraidon Mains here
is this the most boring possible team
bruh i lose against all the meme teams but slither wing fucking wiped that team ^
why are you using slither wing
stab u-turn plus it looks cool (im on my throw shit at a wall and see what sticks phase)
if you're running sun at least use brute bonnet which is actually viable
i mean im not
now im kinda invested in trying to make slither wing work consistently
it won't
not with that mindset it wont :3
double res with koraidon, miraidon, torn and kyogre everywhere idt it's working
yeah i feel like i would have to run sash
bro it has shit stats and shit typing like why 💀
gamefreak hates bug type
Ludicolo really does put in work https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9vgc2025regi-2352365303-8jt4mh7g12g4w9r86j6jd1jwlm20guppw

like
Flutter should have had less speed, its broken
can see it getting a speed nerf in gen 10
miraidon needs a nerf
maybe they will make it 60 60 60 130 130 130
think its more likely they just move 10 speed to HP
idk they haven't nerfed calyrex yet
for miraidon i think maybe they nerf the ability?
i think its stats are kinda fine tbh
Yeah but Calyrex as broken as it is, doesn't hit 307 speed
they can't nerf miraidon's ability because then they'd have to nerf tapu koko
i mean the second part
yeah, can see that becoming 1.2x
rediculously busted
they nerfed grassy glide they have to nerf that too or nerf electro drift
1.3 * 1.3 * 1.5
i feel like volt switch is more miraidons signature ability tbh
wait what if they just made it not learn dazzling gream
For 5 turns, the terrain becomes Electric Terrain. During the effect, the power of Electric-type attacks made by grounded Pokemon is multiplied by 1.3 and grounded Pokemon cannot fall asleep; Pokemon already asleep do not wake up. Grounded Pokemon cannot become affected by Yawn or fall asleep from its effect. Camouflage transforms the user into an Electric type, Nature Power becomes Thunderbolt, and Secret Power has a 30% chance to cause paralysis. Fails if the current terrain is Electric Terrain.

dude just base volt switch stab is 177 bp
LOL 1.33 aswell if SE
if its se its dead even withgout that boost LOL
244+ SpA Choice Specs Hadron Engine Miraidon Electro Drift (Super Effective) vs. 252 HP / 252 SpD Assault Vest Kyogre in Electric Terrain: 280-331 (135.2 - 159.9%) -- guaranteed OHKO

omg it lives without e terrain tho
252+ SpA Choice Specs Miraidon Electro Drift (Super Effective) vs. 252 HP / 252 SpD Assault Vest Kyogre: 160-192 (77.2 - 92.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO im actually shocked
even if you force miraidon to use draco meteor there's no guarantee you win
not as shocked as kyogre will be if he gets hit by drift lmaol
dude in the tournement this guy did a crazy play
predicted my rilla switch and helping hand draco meteor the slot
big brain play
yeah that one stuck to me ive neveer thought about that
sometimes you need to make reads to win
but the thing is even tho he made that crazy read the -2 spa is so inpactful that the only reason he won was because of a crit on the last turn just barely getting the kill
if you position well you don't lose to luck
Its valid imo
But yeah technically without Tera Nerfs Miraidon’s Damage already
and also
CSR did not get nerfed so idk
I mean they can LOL
wait until gen 10 just Powercreep Kyogre
you think miraidon would be balanced if they just removed dazzling gleam as an option?
Dazzling Gleam is not the main issue
its the Multipliers
if they did not nerf Xerneas or Calyrex then they will not nerf Miraidon
i think removing spread damage makes Miraidon more manageable
so basically being special attacking Zacian
but what about multiplier
is it worth running Gambit as a Lunala counter?
counters both its base and tera fairy
not really but you can try
finding i dont need TW as much as i can TR, but i get pretty stuck with Lunala
the humble fighting type
monke when are you making a team with munkidori
?
any fighting type destroys gambit, you'd need to run it in tr
your 4x fighting weakness
ah yeah, there is that. but most fall to Kyogre
urshifu watr
Often 1shot by Kyogre unless its sash
kat said it doesn’t ko and she lived and breathed kyogre in g asw so ill take her word
Depends on the Urshifu build
252 SpA Tera Water Kyogre Water Spout (150 BP) vs. 60 HP / 196 SpD Urshifu-Rapid-Strike in Rain: 163-192 (89 - 104.9%) -- 31.3% chance to OHKO
thats a bulky RSU
you also are assuming whatever is next to ursh also isnt just gonna outspeed
I run scarf Kyogre, so im fine in that regard, but wideguard is an isuse with Lunala
oh ok so
I can also thunder tbf
yeah, i could thunder the urshifu and hope it wide guards
then Gambit has a free hit
but its all mind games
does it ??
then ur locked into thunder and assuming ur sucker punch/thunder
also we missing the part where this lunala is gonna also wanna change its type eventually
or the fact that lunala is USUALLY paired with koraidon…
yes ma'am
maybe i don't change the team this close to Grand Challenge and just run with it
this feels okay:
Nah
He already done that with Infernape so give him a break
speaking of which is it just me and Monke who use Starters that are not Incin and Rilla in Reg G
Woo I am finally medicated lmfao
It only took like half a year and 800 dollars
Adhd be gone
hit top 500 for the first time ever ever going 43-21 on the reg i ladder 
noice
wait is this just your reg g team with a caly ice
Few minor changes
Best i can do it 1513 with 60% GXE
When I'm dead
I'm pinning a Munkidori team to a kill switch
Munkidori my least fave of the 3 lol
Mojojojo looking monkey Mon
Don’t you dare disrespect mojo jojo like that again
its so bad that its worse than Kyurem black
I’d rather have a caterpie cus at least I like looking at them
at least Butterfree is like good
in some cases
Yeah I didn’t wanna say butterfree cus genuinely has a use case lmao
Munkidori has a use case
you use it to force the opponent to target it and murder it
as everyone wants to kill it
He looks like a bean
In the worst way
Poison/Psychic
Toxic Chain, Frisk (Hidden)
88/75/66/130/90/106
555
130 106 is okay ig lmao
106 in this economy-
actually real
Water/Dark
Torrent, Protean (Hidden), Battle Bond (Special)
72/95/67/103/71/122
530
Greninja-Bond, Greninja-Ash
imma be real this shit is so ass
like greninja is more frailer but it has a wide Movepool and fast enough to outspeed Modest 252 Miraidons
munkidori has NOTHING
is dialga-o the best one out of these 5 ?
Why are the gen 7 starters all so fuckin slow
its a common trend ig lmao
Dialga >Palkia and Giratina
thought so
but in SWSH
Palkia>Dialga>Giratina
oh whys that?
better dynamax Attacker
Resist Kyogre
oh i see makes sense
1/4 damage to kyogre
BRO I WAS JUST BUILDING A TEAM I ALREADY MADE LMAO
my dumbass lmao
I like how they just make him ugly as fuck first then just like give him nothing LMAO
loyal3 are so ass
Like keep in mind this frail son of a bitch gets Fake Out AND Parting Shot
But doesn't have the bulk to use it
And you can't even use it as a frail attacker cuz like
It's not fast enough and idt it really hits hard enough at least in my experience
It's just ass
Okay to their credit
I don’t wanna see another usable incin
real tho
Yeah but like
Honestly it kinda makes me mad that they'd put that and give it like
No bulk at all
Shoulda just not given move
icin is cppl at least
Like you gotta realize Incin is also Incin cuz it has Intimidate
Like it's gonna be bulkier when it's lowering an offensive stat
It had Fake Out and U Turn before Intimidate but until it got Intimidate, it wasn't used
So Munkidori would've been fine if it had a tiny bit more bulk
But no let's fuck with a random number generator to figure out this guy's stats
Yeah intim very important but
This Pokemon's attacks have a 30% chance of badly poisoning. This effect comes before a move's inherent secondary effect chance.
True actually
If I saw a team of parting fo cycle that could poison
I’m out
Grimsnarl has parting fake out but none of them use that
People use fo on grimm

The Mursic
Gravity
Manageable when it's single target
fair enough
@mighty stump do you think 100 men could take down a gorilla
yes lol
LMAO
we're talking bare handed here
yes?
You're genuinely an idiot if you think a gorilla can't be taken down by 100 men
Well the Internet been arguing and memeing about it recently
The internet memes and argues about stupid things
Aight
How many people do you think the gorilla gets before it's taken down
Probably 25
Yeah
I loved this video where they were like "we'll fight in the jungle, make it fair" like bruh you're giving it home court?
I think the gorilla gets closer to 50
My thing is like
People are gonna see the gorilla brutally murder at least one of em
You think ALL of the other 99 are gonna fight after that
Y'know what
Probably 25
But if we give the gorilla home court advantage, closer to 40-50
10 people could probably figure out a plan
Yeah probably
Idk I just love watching the argument
Cuz it proves how simple men can be
Like it's like that one meme where the woman is like "I bet he's thinking of other women"
And the dudes just like "hmmm
Yeah I bet 100 dudes could Fist fight a gorilla"
Dude human civilization came to be by us being social hunters
I hope we win in groups
Our ancestors hunted wooly mammoths by chasing them til they were tired
I think 100 all at once could restrain and fuck up a gorilla
why are we talking about Gorilla vs Humans-
Yeah I think we could probably get it
Like I think we could take down the gorilla, but there'd be quite a bit of casualties
Do you think 100 men could take down a gorilla?
Keep in mind
No weapons involved
how much damage can a human actually do to a gorilla
i feel like a fist wouldn't do shit to it
are they like gym bros or like norml average people
heavy casualties on the men side but they probably win bc the gorilla cant attack from all sides and will get tired after some time.
cuz either the boys gonna overwhlem them
But the Gorilla has a speed advantage imo
gorilla probably will go crazy in the beginning but they cant keep it up for too long.
do we allow tatical retreat
tactical retreat probably hurts men side bc that gives gorilla time to recover stamina
i do think the 100 dudes need a strong strat
try to subdue the gorilla somehow between the 100 ppl
100 Dudes has teamwork advantage tho
Whatever
Just 100 men vs a gorilla
100 dudes will probably scare the gorilla into running away.
What about 100 Gorillas vs 1 Man?
No both you and the gorilla are throwing hands
