@next stump picture together today before i leaveBearWiggle

spiral ridge
#

bro looking at us on that live

lean ridge
#

Crazy finish to that set

bold geode
#

Oh damn
1

#

There's kind of not that many spectators for such a large tour

bold geode
#

Oh
Showing a 6-1

dense latch
#

that’s a weird record to show

bold geode
#

Really is
Could've done 7-0s or 5-2s
Hell Wolfe is 5-2, there's your views LOL

#

6-1 is weird to show at this point in the tournament
Cuz like
They're not doing win and in for Day 2 and the win and ins for top cut for X-1 players is tomorrow

#

Kinda have neither here

#

Anyways analysis so far
Zamazenta kinda goated

spiral ridge
#

dayum that live

#

oh yeah burn thats fine

bold geode
#

Zamazenta has been on damn near every stream match today or felt like at least

#

Seen a lot of Zam CSR and Zam Mirai

#

Weird cuz Mirai Nala was the 4th most used pairing but judging by the stream, you'd think Mirai Zam would be in that spot

#

Also can I just say Koraidon Lunala has done the exact opposite that I thought it would at the beginning

shadow wind
#

Any Groudons??

foggy lodge
#

Nah

bold geode
shadow wind
#

Where can I check?

bold geode
#

It'll be on a site called Pokedata later
Probably tomorrow morning if I had to guess

#

Keep an eye on that link

#

It'll show OTS and stuff for tours

#

You can also check past tournaments on this site and find OTS from past ones

shadow wind
#

Oh dang

#

Thanks goat

bold geode
#

Yup
What time zone you in?

shadow wind
#

MST

dense latch
#

i hope they drop later today but i cant remember how fast ics drop ots

foggy lodge
#

I think that for ICs they don't take too much time to shiw the teams

bold geode
#

Oh ok
So note that um
Idk about other regions but usually for EU tours for you teams get put on there later in the day and NA tours get the teams in the morning of Day 2

shadow wind
#

Well thank god it's Friday

#

Or whatever that song is

bold geode
#

So like EU regional happens which will end like in the morning/early afternoon for you
Later same day in evening they pop up
NA tour like this
Tomorrow morning

#

And it shows
EVERYTHING

#

Like deadass you can look at the OTS of the guy in last place KekHands

shadow wind
#

They'll need that for me if I ever go to an irl tour

bold geode
#

Months ago my favorite pastime was to scroll all the way to the bottom and slowly scroll up to try and find the most wack shit there is

dense latch
shadow wind
#

NAIC grabbed everyone on ladder 😔

foggy lodge
#

We have a game 3

spiral ridge
#

seems to be tangs game?

#

depending on WG or not but should be setting up for redirect d gleam time

foggy lodge
#

That was a so bad turn

spiral ridge
#

yeah sucker just is never it is it

foggy lodge
#

You lose both mons no wide guard and Volcarona gets a free quiver dance

spiral ridge
#

that too and burnt tera

foggy lodge
spiral ridge
#

i guess but like

#

switch or redirect makes that risky

foggy lodge
#

I think the mistake is just not pressuring Volcarona

spiral ridge
#

yeah

#

hell he coulda protected to see what mirai did if he was really unsure

#

yup

foggy lodge
#

If he made

spiral ridge
#

zama sacrifice!

foggy lodge
#

Tect tect he could have tera'd Zama and wide guard while switching to Miraidon

spiral ridge
#

oh holy shit

spiral ridge
#

sucker just is never really play there

foggy lodge
#

-1 Miraidon

spiral ridge
#

smart

#

d gleam BP gonna just cook here

#

oh wow double

#

can just struggle bug again this is over now

foggy lodge
#

Fiery dance Miraidon and then gleam just wins the game

#

Hands can't win the 1v2 even with crits

spiral ridge
#

fiery or struggle bug both work here no?

foggy lodge
#

Wait no it

#

Can be won with a tie and a crit

spiral ridge
#

bold geode
#

Zac CSR going 7-1 with Dnite is a sight to see lol

real prairie
#

Hi everyone

#

Any Ludis in NAIC? 👀

bold geode
#

@molten oasis I have unfortunate news
Jackson Ferris has switched to Zama

bold geode
#

ZamOgre tho

molten oasis
#

I hate it here

#

Lmao

bold geode
#

A Cresselia made day 2?

foggy lodge
#

I think the duo is better than I thought

bold geode
#

@lofty tartan you know how NE did?

bold geode
#

2 Sneasler have made Day 2

#

I lied
3 Sneasler

#

There are 3 Korai Lunala in Day 2, a fucking generational fall off compared to the beginning of the Reg

#

There's like double Mirai Groudon teams in comparison

shadow wind
#

That's because Groudon is frickin awesome

#

Lest we forget the goat

bold geode
#

Low-key I figured that Korai Lunala would've done the opposite it did
Where starting off it'd be meh but as time went on it'd be crazy
Now though uh
It's kinda disappointing

real prairie
bold geode
#

Idfk

molten oasis
#

so now zacogre is worse than zamogre

#

No wins for sworddog lol

bold geode
torn parrot
#

Uhhhh

#

Guys I just realized

#

Did I miss any crazy events in game

#

Like shiny miraidon koraidon giveaway

#

Awww I just realized I missed wolfey incin giveaway

foggy lodge
#

It's not over

shadow wind
#

When does it end?

foggy lodge
#

You can still exchange it

#

I think sunday or monday

#

Also @bold geode there are more Reshirams in day 2 than Ho-Ohs

bold geode
foggy lodge
#

Nope

bold geode
#

Man people disrespecting this mfer for real for real

foggy lodge
#

As they should

bold geode
#

I might have to cook with Ho Oh soon

torn parrot
#

I CAN STILL GET THE LEGENDARY INCIN

bold geode
#

If y'all wanna tell me I'm coping go ahead

torn parrot
#

I played pocket for too long you guys

foggy lodge
#

I think its a reminiscence of an early meta and that's it

astral kelp
foggy lodge
#

Was good for the teams around in early meta, it evolved and Ho-Oh just didn't keep up

bold geode
#

It can come back
Remember mfers doubted Zama then it came back at the last Reg G regional

astral kelp
#

such a good mirai answer

foggy lodge
#

Like discharge Miraidon, Latios Goltres Zama, etc

molten oasis
#

Still convinced ho-oh’s dead

bold geode
#

Idt it's like crazy strong but like
Seeing Reshiram make day 2 once and being like yeah it beat Ho Oh, the bird is ass is kind of fuckin crazy

foggy lodge
#

Best restricted of the format -> desperate to win the mirror

bold geode
#

Honestly a lot of Zam CSR, Ho Oh could come back

torn parrot
#

For anyone who likes competition I wouldn’t recommend pocket to anyone

molten oasis
#

Noted

foggy lodge
#

Also somebody tell Tofu that someone ended 5-3 with Snorlax

bold geode
#

Zam Mirai gives it difficulty, but find something that helps? Fuck it

foggy lodge
bold geode
#

Hell Ho Oh Ting Lu was already a thing

dense latch
bold geode
#

Or even Treads LMAO

dense latch
bold geode
#

But still
I am very disappointed by Koraidon Lunala

torn parrot
# dense latch brick season went too far?

Nah it’s just how it’s always been
Nothing big happened this season it’s just pocket isn’t a very good competitive game, the luck factors are really high

it’s telling that the rank 1 players have 55-60% winrate in that game

It’s not meant to have a ranked mode

It is fun to play with your friends tho!

molten oasis
#

Am I crazy

#

Is tofu not in here anymore or am I dumb

dense latch
bold geode
molten oasis
#

No, like, in the server

bold geode
#

I can still ping him

dense latch
#

nah he’s still in the server

bold geode
#

He's just busy with well
Life

molten oasis
#

wtf why can’t I

#

Oh well

bold geode
#

Bro actually has a life now

foggy lodge
#

Bro lasted like 2 regionals and died

dense latch
#

there’s a lot of tofus so his user doesnt show

foggy lodge
#

Less than a week between regionals and bro died lmao

torn parrot
#

the most skill based decks in the game are basically like “you can actually make decisions”

#

But that’s as far as it really goes

foggy lodge
#

I wanted to get into pocket but the amount of meta cards is crazy

dense latch
#

i enjoy playing it from
time to time

#

ranked is fun but it’s way too luck based

molten oasis
#

I don’t think playing pocket is fun lol

#

I played when a9 has a special card and that was it

dense latch
#

it’s my plan b whenever i get tilted when playing vgc

foggy lodge
#

Tilt in VGC -> move to pocket -> tilt in pocket -> move to VGC -> repeat

dense latch
#

i love qd volc (ignore my gxe)

shadow wind
#

Bo1 or Bo3?

dense latch
#

bo1

#

1693 in bo3 would be insane

lofty tartan
foggy lodge
#

Either way yeah QD Volc is broken

dense latch
#

im gonna start doing bo3 ladder i feel so comfortable with this team

#

talked with the team creator, really nice and gave some cool insight

foggy lodge
#

I was working on some like Miraidon Lunala + Treads variant

#

I just need to find the right fire type and last slot

molten oasis
foggy lodge
#

I'm not sure about Entei or Hearthflame

foggy lodge
#

If we can know

dense latch
molten oasis
foggy lodge
#

Ohhh

dense latch
#

he's a spanish player

molten oasis
#

I think both are good but I really like single strike rn, but QD volc is strong too

#

hm

dense latch
#

i like #1 more

foggy lodge
#

Lmao that's so dope

dense latch
#

talk about commitment to the role

molten oasis
#

Single strike, Ty for your service Miraidonsalute

meager dock
#

man these cheesy ass poison/spikes/protect teams are brain dead copy paste froms google no thinkings required -_-

shadow wind
#

I feel violated

bold geode
#

One of em knocked out Wolfe

shadow wind
#

It's literally been less than like 2 hours

#

Wait this isn't even the team

bold geode
#

Lol

shadow wind
#

Ting lu for Indeedee

#

Isn't it messed up how Flutter mane is faster than a lot of Chlorophyll mons

astral kelp
#

Regenerator is so good and it's so bulky

#

Sacred fire is also kind of an insanely good move

#

Prolly only use it on a team that likes tailwind but doesn't rely on it?

ocean timber
#

Time to hit the builder

shadow wind
#

Does that mean you are going to use Rayquaza?

bold geode
lofty tartan
#

As long as Zama is good, Ho-Oh will have a niche. Niche things are rarely the meta thing to beat so you don't see it as an oppressive force all over the top tables.

bold geode
#

Yeah

#

Anyways I think today as far as stream goes was actually pretty good

#

Moreover
We got Dillon and Keanu in Day 2

molten oasis
#

It’s ok

lean ridge
#

i got inspired by the scovillain koraidon team its so fun to play

astral kelp
#

Ngl I feel like raywuaza is lowkey usable

astral kelp
astral kelp
#

By far my favorite team in reg G

lofty tartan
#

Outside of removing weather he doesn't do much. Speed too low and gets crushed by Miraidon. Tera Normal Espeed is good - the high rates of Indeedee and Farigiraf are bad for that.

astral kelp
#

And cir

#

You'd run no speed rayquza

lofty tartan
#

Yeesh

#

Anyway.

astral kelp
#

Lol idk just something I've Been testing seems usable so far

lofty tartan
#

Rayquaza isn't even low-key bad right now; it's pretty high-key.

astral kelp
#

LOL

#

I mean was it ever good tbh

#

Mega doesn't count ofc

lofty tartan
#

Long ago, in the before-fore times.

latent leaf
#

Just wait till rayquaza gets its mega back poliwhirlkek

astral kelp
#

The horrors

#

Wait lemme find the team

lofty tartan
#

Like in the regards of restricteds, it's just okay.

#

The use-cost of that is pretty high though

astral kelp
#

Fuck the team is on my home pc

#

It started like this

#

But I changed okidogi to rilla boom and I'm running the SECRET SAUCE

#

Instead of fari

lofty tartan
#

So a lot of guys that care about their abilities, minus horse, and weezing. 👀

#

It's definitely a thing.

astral kelp
lofty tartan
#

Yeah but you're running it with 4 mons that care about their abilities. It's not just some - it's almost the whole team.

#

The other two are the horse that can't have the ability removed, iirc, and weezing itself

astral kelp
#

The only one I'd say that weezing anti synergies with is chien pao

astral kelp
#

Or oki dogi

#

If weezing is in the field there's no weather and no I tímida te

#

Intimidate

lofty tartan
#

Air Lock is one reason to use the thing over Dragonite, which tends to do the job better having Inner Focus or Multiscale.

Weather will happen at times despite Weezing because switches and 4 pokemons on the field.

#

Oki-Dogi's main niche is an Incineroar foil

#

So if you're voiding Intimidate with Gas, you're not using him to the fullest and can use almost anything else

astral kelp
lofty tartan
astral kelp
#

But it's a positioning thing at that point

lofty tartan
#

Yeah you have to end up doing Air Lock, but with extra steps

#

You're working harder for something that should just be an option.

astral kelp
#

If you're in a position against a weather team where you have switched weezing out letting them get weather in and got raywuaza and weezing next to each other while weather is on

#

Then it's kinda like skill issue lol

#

Weezing is more just to work against farigirafe indeedee and incin so i don't bring it every game anyways

lofty tartan
#

There are times that you don't start Weezing, but now we're talking about a bunch of hypotheticals in a vacuum, which don't necessarily disprove that you have four guys that really like their abilities and Weezing. 🤷

#

But I stand by that Rayquaza isn't good.

astral kelp
#

Oh no I don't disagree lol

#

Someone gave me a rayquaza so I'm just playing around trying to find a way to make it work

lofty tartan
#

You didn't catch the free shiny raid Rayquaza?

astral kelp
#

Rayquaza with weezing so far is the best

#

WHAT???

#

THERE WAS A SHINY RAYQUAZA RAID AND I MISSED IT??

lofty tartan
#

In December there was a tera raid for a shiny Rayquaza.

astral kelp
#

Oh I didn't have a switch back then :(

lofty tartan
#

Ahhh

molten oasis
#

I remember that

#

I clicked SD with zacian 2 times and nuked it

shadow wind
#

It was almost the same team too

astral kelp
shadow wind
#

Nah that's the portland team

dense latch

#

Guys

shadow wind
#

Maya come back to VGC !!!

torn parrot
#

When people say Pokemon shouldn’t have gone 3d
I think what they really mean is the 3D models weren’t animated very well

astral kelp
#

sword and shield was okay

#

violet is just so much worse

torn parrot
#

I can’t really blame since they always rush their games but

#

the 3d models defintely could have been really lively with enough time and passion I feel

solid frigate
foggy lodge
#

btw there are 9 Sneaslers in day 2

shadow wind
#

A discord server I'm in was theory crafting Sneasler big time

foggy lodge
#

I always thought Sneasler would have a better niche in double restricted

solid frigate

#

And I think I was correct in that

shadow wind
#

Ah heck yeah

#

It's been so long 😔

molten oasis

Double fake out is the bane of my existence

#

In gen 5 was Hydreigon putting up Jordan numbers?

molten oasis
#

it was strong yea

#

latios i think was like, hella busted

#

although anything that could dragon gem draco was nuts

shadow wind
#

Should they bring back gems?

molten oasis
#

no lmao

shadow wind
#

Gems were just z moves but everyone could use em

solid frigate
#

pls no

shadow wind
#

Wait it's just specs

solid frigate
#

like genuinely no

shadow wind
#

It's just a choice item boost

tiny karmaBOT
#
Item: Dragon Gem

Holder's first successful Dragon-type attack will have 1.3x power. Single use.

solid frigate
#

its lorb but close to no reprecussion

shadow wind
#

That doesn't sound that broken

molten oasis
#

it was in gen 5

solid frigate
#

there are almost no counterplay

shadow wind
#

Flying gem acro was busted

#

That's like saying there's no counter play to specs Miraidon

molten oasis
#

they then nerfed it and then removed it lmao

#

it was more busted cuz you couldnt resist it well, gen 5 had no fairies

shadow wind
#

See that's what I mean

#

Like if gems were in the game now would they even get used?

molten oasis
#

probably not but maybe occasionally

tiny karmaBOT
#
Item: Normal Gem

Holder's first successful Normal-type attack will have 1.3x power. Single use.

shadow wind
#

They should just add em back 😔

molten oasis
#

not gen 9 tho

#

you get that from tera

shadow wind
#

I hate tera !!

molten oasis
#

ik

#

i hate fake out, nothing we can do about it

shadow wind
#

You can use armour tail

#

I have to wait a year

molten oasis
#

thats not always such an easy option for teambuilding lol

#

idt fari works for what im playing rn

shadow wind
#

At least you HAVE options

molten oasis
#

fair point

shadow wind
#

My option is to stop playing

#

Or go play natdex or something

molten oasis
#

pff

shadow wind
#

Or what I will do

molten oasis
#

natdex time fr

shadow wind
#

Just suck it up 😔

#

I can't wait for Gen 10 though

molten oasis
#

yea, still, its more like

#

rilla incin sucks ass for zac mirai

shadow wind
#

Oh yeah 100%

molten oasis
#

like idk wtf im supposed to do

shadow wind
#

It's crazy how Rilla annihilates Miraidon

molten oasis
#

which is, zacians job but

#

zacian cant stand seeing incin, and i cant SD everytime i expect it to switch in

shadow wind
#

I just climbed from a 63% to a 67% and like 200 elo, yippee !

molten oasis
#

#

sorry im kinda ranting that was the 2 losses i had lol

shadow wind
#

Nah it's chill

#

And completely understandable

molten oasis
#

idk, team has little spread but

#

idk where im gonna get spread that hit both for good damage consistently

solid frigate
#

idk why but Bo1 Players don't know when to click fake out

shadow wind
#

I don't know when to click fake out 😔

molten oasis
#

and its grass volc

shadow wind
#

Over 20 games

molten oasis
#

and fould play grimmsnarl

#

and water hands

#

ok hold on

shadow wind
#

Over 20 games clicking fake out 8 times might be seen as a crime

#

By the way over 20 games I clicked pblades 42 times

Iron Moth kinda goes crazy on double bike

#

Quad resists the fairies

molten oasis
#

yea, i have no idea how to solve this issue lmfao

#

iron moth is kind of a joke mon idt thats waht i need

#

if it got sludge bomb, then i would, but it doesnt

shadow wind
#

Yeah nah

#

Maybe a cloak mon

#

You could even replace hands with Incin

molten oasis
#

meh

#

id replace volc with incin tbh

shadow wind
#

I was having similar issues with my team and lowkey Incin solved it all

molten oasis
#

hands has been nice

shadow wind
#

Yeah try that

molten oasis
#

but uh

#

ok, think about this

shadow wind
#

🧠

molten oasis
#

hands incin zac and mirai

#

what do those mons ALL have in common

shadow wind
#

GROUND

molten oasis
#

so nah lmao

shadow wind
#

Groudon eating

#

That's why I suggest hands for Incin

#

One ground weak for another

molten oasis
#

idk, i think i may just have to redo cuz

#

hands is my line for ursa for the most part

#

like yea, intimidate but that doesnt solve everything

shadow wind
#

Nah don't worry I know

molten oasis
#

ugh, close

shadow wind
#

What does Shifu provide?

molten oasis
#

idgaf what the volc set is i just cant figure out the rilla incin mu

shadow wind
#

He feels kinda off with this team

molten oasis
shadow wind
#

Well if Incin + Rilla is the problem then Shifu isn't the answer

molten oasis
#

ig, zac needs anti incin things tho

#

like, mirai is a lot but, usually needs 2

shadow wind
#

Oh yeah I'm just saying maybe just something other than shifu

molten oasis
#

oh wait

shadow wind
#

Something that can beat Rilla too

molten oasis
#

when in doubt landorous

shadow wind
#

Covert cloak lando ?!!

molten oasis
#

no but at least lando pressures both

shadow wind
#

Tera ghost?

molten oasis
#

with ep and sludge bomb

#

ok its not that fake out is the issue, as annoying as the fake out pressure is

#

its not being able to hit the fuckers pivoting in an out

shadow wind
#

The team just looks fake out weak

molten oasis
#

any team without a fucking ghost is fake out weak

shadow wind
#

Not teams with Incin

#

Fake out back !

#

But your fake out is ultra slow

#

And when you can't fake out aka a ghost type

#

Incineroar is there to aura farm

molten oasis
#

why is the answer to everything fucking incin

shadow wind
#

Because he's the GOAT

molten oasis
#

:/

shadow wind
#

Just sayin

molten oasis
#

one team where i dont NEED incin would be LIT

shadow wind
#

Can't exist

#

Or you go Gapdos

molten oasis
#

clearly a bunch of teams can

shadow wind
#

Cause that guys lowkey awesome

molten oasis
#

idk, i'll figure it out

im still figuring it out

shadow wind
#

I have seen some electric seed volcs

#

Also W names

molten oasis
#

eseed volc, thats kinda cool

dense latch
#

i have exactly 49 grass tera shards 🫠

#

eseed volc essentially gets an omniboost after a qd

shadow wind
#

Yeah pretty much

#

I feel like I'd rather reflect

#

Like reflect + lefties

dense latch
#

i changed the set to giga drain lefties too

shadow wind
#

Ohhhh

#

Wait so right now you're giga drain?

dense latch
#

i think the ability to flip the sheet on water types is nice

dense latch
shadow wind
#

Ah ok

#

Then yeah that's chill

#

I need to make my team in game 😔

#

Which means I need to get a Miraidon

#

To the trade channels I go !

#

I hate the trade channels

molten oasis
#

real

shadow wind
#

I also wish there was a way to change nicknames from someone else

#

Cause I was stupid and named my shiny Groudon on the other account 😔

molten oasis
#

oof

shadow wind
#

I could grind for another one

dense latch
#

if you can get it back to the original account you can change the name

#

that's how i got to change my cir's name

shadow wind
#

I’d rather just get an unnamed one

#

So then I can change it whenever and not only when it’s back in that account

#

The question is where do I grind for it

molten oasis
#

swsh

shadow wind
#

Yeah dynamax adventures are goated right?

molten oasis
#

the odds are pretty good yea

shadow wind
#

Ooh boy I’m so excited to grind for this

#

I remember I shiny hunted Arceus in BDSP

#

Full odds

molten oasis
#

why lmao

shadow wind
#

Shiny Arceus bro

#

You telling me shiny Arceus ain’t cool?

molten oasis
#

good flex ig

#

well, it is i just dont shiny hunt things unless i plan to use them competitively

shadow wind
#

That’s fair

molten oasis
#

although i have a bunch of shinies of useless mons lol

shadow wind
#

I’m so glad I already have a shiny Volc

#

The yellow fellows get to play

molten oasis
#

ye

#

i like volc just kinda struggling to get it working with other guys lol

shadow wind
#

I had that yeah

#

Thankfully Erik put me on that good QD screens stuff

dense latch
#

(:

molten oasis
#

idk if QD is what zac mirai wants

#

but also, its jsut a lot of holes to patch that i havent figure out yet

shadow wind
#

When using Zacian or Groudon you’ll have holes

molten oasis
#

well theres holes with everything

#

they just have more of them

shadow wind
#

Yes but the holes with 2 are harder to patch

molten oasis
#

fair point

shadow wind
#

Like Incin for you

molten oasis
#

i do think zac mirai are a good duo, just gotta figure out the rilla incin stuff

shadow wind
#

I think Groudon is a cool guy

molten oasis
#

yea

shadow wind
#

I can’t even say I believe he’s competitive optimal

#

Because even I don’t believe that

molten oasis

fair lol
