i've spent $100 trying to make my laptop not overheat today
its still overheating, im not calling it a waste cuz i do now have some nice tools and a good stand for my next laptop, but im still pissed
This format is 50/50's. No restructured duo beats everything.
Play one of the best archetypes.
Accept the shortcomings.
Don't make the job harder than it needs to be.
Come join me on stupid OMs 🙏
Anyone has some creative miraidon parters? I'm trying to do some new stuff, but I just fall back onto farigiraf, whims, and ursh/hands.
how do u know, similar circles?
Diva

This team is such ragebait, I love it.

They survive everything too.
🐡
I have a lamp next to my bed that's also a nightstand
Imma shove a curtain rod up your ass
LMAO honestly same
I be looking in my closet like "damn that coat kinda look like a whole ass dude rn"
One time creepy figure was just chilling by my door and turning lights on or anything showed nothing I was like wtaf
Bro saw the Hatman
Nah I saw a fucking sleep paralysis demon I couldn’t move for five minutes to turn light on
Shit was not tight
Yeah that's what the fucking Hat man is
He did not have a hat
Nah wasn’t wide enough to be you
Okay
Was some slender man proportions
I used to have those proportions
How long ago
You did???
Yes bro
Slender man proportions is like Yao ming that is pretty hard to do
I literally from the time the pandemic started to the time I started working out
Gained 80 lbs
Ic
Yeah
This was recent so it was not past you
Unless we’re doing little nightmares time loops
Isn’t the hat man joke from like a Benadryl subreddit
no my brain just can’t handle being alone in dark
makes panic
LOOK ALL I KNOW IS I SAW A TALL MFER WITH A HAT AND NO FACE SO IT WAS EITHER HIM OR A GHOST
Why make panic
Dayum
That does not sound very fun
brain seems to believe theres a non0 chance that theres more than just me in here
It's ok
I'll live in your walls so you know for sure
ok so why tf didn’t u help me build bedframe yday
Yeah it was one of those type beats where like
You know when you get that feeling that someone is watching you
u asshole :v
Was the hat man hot monkey
I was busy :3
you WERE IN MY WALLS PROBABLY DOING NOTHINNNGG
He actually was, he just scared my ass since it was midnight
NUH UH
Bro he didn’t have a face and yet you were checking him out
How dapper was his hat
Almost like a bowler hat
Y'know the hat from Meet the Robinsons
Trying
That kind of hat
I'm going to run CIR-Origin Dialga hard TR.
Actually @spiral ridge what if it was just that one mfer that missed the catch in my room 
Huh
@chrome knot look at this uncultured swine
Back from shower and seems not much looking
i dunno what ur on abt either
at work type shit
I know the movie I just don’t watch shit
crash out mode

@bold geode customers are STARING at me at work should i kill them
no, thats when you put the fries in the bag lil bro
waow youre 12
Yes
Listen to the voices
Listen to the deep fryers beckoning you to kill the man with today's Happy Meal toy
good idea
@rustic mountain just found out two alts got dq
one was Wolfe and another was someone else (the winner)
idk it made me so uncomfortable lmao
so I was hearing correctly
Bro low-key if Wolfe brings Korai Lunala to Worlds or that same NAIC stuff, idk how far he's actually gonna go
That whole duo is kinda cooked
“They all hated me.”
I think he day 2’s off comfort
It’s looking like a 6-6 or a 5-3 to me ngl
Pokemon is a game of calculated risks.
If you're too scared to take risks, you'll never get to the next level.
But if you're too reckless, you'll never win either.
It's all about finding the perfect balance.
I don't think he'll bring it
Because its actually super weird that he brought Korainala to NAIC because at Milwaukee he said he didn't like the duo
AT LEAST SOMEONE KNOWS
Honestly
His team kinda looks like it was built to beat Shadow Rider and only Shadow Rider
He’s prob bringing it
He brought it to VR as well and I don’t see Wolfe switching so “late” despite it being a lot of time to practice still lol
maybe he tries korai csr
Would scorching sands be a good move on volcarona with ground Tera
Or would it be better to go with grass Tera and giga drain
this is cool asf
No harm in trying it, especially in bo1
Will throw some people
It's cleeeeaaannn
they play bss
giga drain is generally better
what's the team
interesting tech
but giga drain is generally better
I found the answer
It’s to play the team that fucking worked
(That I’m also comfortable with)
+1 12+ Atk Tera-Fire Ogerpon-Hearthflame Ivy Cudgel (1.2x Mask Boost) vs. 132 HP / 140 Def Tera-Grass Kyogre in Rain: 164-196 (85.4 - 102%) -- 18.75% chance to OHKO
That’s wild
Pokemon is a game of calculated risks.
If you're too scared to take risks, you'll never get to the next level.
But if you're too reckless, you'll never win either.
It's all about finding the perfect balance.
Didn’t you send this already
thats a different post
No I swear he sent that earlier today
Right here.
WOBBLE IT WIGGLE IT WOBBLE IT WIGGLE IT WOBBLE IT WIGGLE HUUUUUUUUUUUH
y'all think upper hand or quick guard is better?
What's a good lunala counter? Rn I'm running:
Terrakion, whimsicott, zamazenta, sinistcha, miraidon, incineroar but I'm thinking of swapping some stuff
beat up strat from Terrakion?
ye
perchance your Miraidon is Specs or Scarf?
it's av 😔
can you send the pokepaste in here
Don't have the entire team but my miraidon is smth like this
you don't need Overheat Mirai
Or parabolic charge
you can just run Mirai Zama Hearthflame and its already better
does mold breaker even go through shadow shield or whatever its called
no draco on mirai is criminal
good luck when you play opposing mirai
or tera grass kyogre
or like anything really
there's not much overheat does that draco doesn't
also Hearthflame exists
Draco volt switch and edrift are required
What are good lunala counters though
maybe I should just run encore over endeavor on whimsi
Unless your calm mind
just give us the pokepaste
No one would steal your idea
it's not that I'm scared that people r gonna steal it I just don't have one
do you have the team on pokemon showdown?
no
You want Tera Electric on Av miraidon
start there
Mine has tera electric actually
terrakion is not good in this format and i dont see sinistcha working that well on this team
Oh the pic you sent has fire
i can close both eyes about Sinistcha
Yeah that's why I said something like this
but like Terrakion is like not good (Used Iron Boulder on kyogre team,it was something)
Terrakion beatup is fire 🗣️
is there anything on the team you wouldn't consider changing?
Can we see a paste?
Preferably terrakionwhimsi/zama, but I was thinking about taking out incineroar
The format of vgc 2013
I used it for a little bit
and i kinda see it in reg F but like why bother
I forgot what reg but I remember there was some encore tech with quick attack and you could use rockslide/etc with priority
Reg f is prob what I used it in too
I got a shiny one though 🥹
yea it's just not worth it and takes up a move slot on whim too
i don't think its gonna shine when this mf just psychic it
idk why but the calyrexes I've been facing haven't been scarfed/tailwind
because Shadow Rider with Tailwind is Optional lmao
like if you REALLY want to use terrakion then go for it, just know you're putting yourself at a pretty big disadvantage
I mean you prob want encore on whims anyways but yeah Terrak not worth this reg
Yeah I know 😭
What are good substitutes for incineroar though? H. sneasler w electric seed looked kinda funny
i mean incin is fine
Reg f
Incin is incin
i can find some mirai zama teams that did well
Sneasler is like, a thing you can do
for you to find some inspo
You’d probably prefer an incin
https://pokepast.es/2e9d13975674d4da
https://pokepast.es/5b2c5d25d6c76c1e
these are some decent teams
Volc is on Mirai Zama teams for the mirror Zama
ig you could use the hoj nielsen's team
the one with bloodmoon ursa and sneasler
i don't think it's great though the nielsen brothers are just v comfortable with it
What do people run on ursa?
Typically Bloodmoon, Hyper Voice, Earth Power Protect
Life orb or smth?
Idk what’s Neilsens team have but LOrb is a great item for it
https://pokepast.es/cbb412fbe23c2438 it's this
Why? I have a pao but it has kinda evil ev's with like max atk and spd
All paos are max max
Honestly that ursaluna thing looks kinda interesting, are tornadus's also max max usually?
lowers defense of all other pokemon on the field making body press hit harder
body press damage isn't affected by sword of ruin
I have a shiny torn so I might try this out, what evs would you recommend on torn/ursa? Also why raindance on torn?
just some extra options into koraidon i suppose
https://pokepast.es/9fa92fdb1acf3372 this is the team. This works, I feel confident with it.
What stats for ursa? (Sorry for another ping 😓 )
honestly not sure
it's not too common in this format
i don't really recommend the team if you're just starting out if i'm being honest
maybe modest max spatk max speed to take advantage of tailwind?
Very good team but its hard to pick up as a new player
It's fine I don't mind losing and I have most of the mons ready except ursa
Yeah that'd make sense but then it prob gets 1 hit by most things no?
i mean it still has decent natural physical bulk
So max spd max sp atk? And then like 4 sp def?
I think 4 HP reaches 199 and then you take less chip damage from the life orb
I think this is a max speed max spA Bloodmoon team
really little thing but usually it's easier to abbreviate speed as SPE and Special Def as SpDef
or SpD
fair
Oooo interesting, I'll get to training it later
Why are we playing skeledirge?
I like skeledirge
In a format where it doesn’t really do anything?
you’ll soon find out its easier to ignore lol
even in BSS Reg I it does nothing
Nah I like to know why
(I’m bored at work atm
I miss regulation h
Idt it was even good in reg h
What form is better for arcanine btw
Hisui id say
Once again
We need actual EVs
We need the numbers
Is this for singles?
didnt we have this convo a month ago or so
Am I at least learning
Seems Junie was right I should’ve said nothing
shockerrr
look at what we recommended the last time
Does that mean this set is bad
got 0 investment anywhere else bc defences HAVE to match😭
Looks like corn
does anyone know what the 16 Speed IVs are for? Who are they supposed to be underspeeding?
slower than normal Ursaluna and CIR that are min speed
And i guess Scraggy min speed idk
Amoonguss just needs relaxed nature to underspeed CIR in tr
I’m pretty sure it’s just that
I have a 27 Speed one, but my CIR is 0 Speed
not sure if the team will work the same way so I wanted to make sure
mmmm
I think Gavin never explained that lol
Maybe that's just the slowest he had
That’s what I’m thinking
aight I'm using 27 shroom and 0 CIR then
Would adding in brute bonnet over amoongus make this worse. Thinking it as an option for csr.
Surging Strikes in Rain just mauls CSR
Amoonguss is a lot better
I was thinking about getting into competitive Pokemon and was thinking about running a hyper offensive team based around Iron Crown as my main/ace Pokemon. Any suggestions for other 'mons?
For a team that wants to rotate out with fake out and rain
Amoonguss benefits more the team
and Urshifu just Mauls CSR in rain
Singles or VGC
Mainly VGC, but singles is fine
Iron Crown is very outclassed in VGC by Calyrex Shadow
eh, true
if its reg G then sure
but reg I is impossible to use it
The main reason to use Crown before was for psyspam with Indeedee and would cover Koraidon's weaknesses but now with CSR that's already done
252+ Atk Tera Water Urshifu-Rapid-Strike Surging Strikes (3 hits) vs. 100 HP / 236+ Def Zamazenta-Crowned in Rain on a critical hit: 132-162 (73.3 - 90%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
252+ Atk Tera Water Urshifu-Rapid-Strike Surging Strikes (3 hits) vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Calyrex-Shadow on a critical hit: 180-216 (102.2 - 122.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO
@warped mason btw you kinda don't need Brute Bonnet anyway
and you have another pokemon that beats CSR if Urshifu is not needed
Thx
What about singles anyways
Crown Still suck in Singles
Arguebly worse than in VGC
This was another team I wanted to build cus I got a shiny zenta. Thoughts on adjustments if I should?
Stellar kinda sucks
nah its not
it act as a kill button most of the time
it was not meant as a defensive tera
anyways,imo there's nothing to replace
How would I play into ice rider miraidon teams with this
Ik kyogre is pretty much forced to tera grass
But is it hopeless?
kill Mirai with Lando and let Kyogre beat CIR
Thats the base idea
So then ogre Lando is the lead here then usually?
What are we discussing?
gameplan against Mirai CIR
This team into cir miraidon
CSR?
With what?
Sorry ice rider
I guess to have the accurate sandshears off the bat
That's a good idea
And then kyogre in the back could deal with cir
But I think opening with offense is good, you have ice spinner to handle the terrain from Mirai
Do cir mirai players usually lead cir?
usually lead Mirai
Mirai CIR usually lead incin Mirai, which, yes lando lead is good but I feel like it’s really easy to just lose lando t1 to Draco
So I think trying to bait Mirai into electric moves so lando is THEN strong into the duo is good
Yeah and then kyogre isn't doing anything there either
Yep
Or you can Tera early and click pulse and hope you hit the incin
But the issue is more Mirai here
But personally I like zama pao lead here anyway
CIR in that team usually run leech seed
So Zama Pao usually is free against it
That’s why we Tera grass zama clicks wide guard and I also think we’ve adjusted to playing clam again
They would probably want to switch onto the zama right?
we love clam
not the seafood
Just spam wide guard and let smth else take out CIR, but yea you can pivot it
Wouldn't they just fake out pao in that case?
If they lead CIR you’re fine
Is the wide guard for dazzling gleam?
Nvm brain farted. Cir spread move.
@molten oasis if we were to lead zama, would we want to go for damage or pivot into Lando.
That’s your call
Tera grass and press into incin would be good right?
Or I guess dealing with mirai should be priority
Well pao is killing Mirai with spinner anyway
Double protect t1 and see what happens first
Yeah to scout fake out.
I'm not in a game atm
I guess if they show volt switch I pivot

But then the mind games lol
mans just told me no for the sake of it 
but yea since most ppl know ig it was oliver eskolin as the other
which in hindsight is a bit silly to get dq'd wen ppl wound up finding out anyway, now u revealed ur sauce and didnt get the $ or glory
And that's how the VR ends with 0 dollars 0 glory and 0 confidentiality
Kinda sad
But if you are going to play a VR with an alt ig that you already know you aren't getting paid so meh
How popular is shadow rider zenta rn?
Not too much just the second most used duo
Its pretty under the radar, only second just isn't enough.
I have now have an urge to run ogre giratina o
why'd they get dq
they were alting in VR
Is it? Feel like it should be first rn
yea but to also get outted as who u actually are as well, idk its just like wats the point
big double whammy energy
I think I found my new favourite restricted
Okay what Pokémon are worth trying in bss
Idk Urshifu
I think the meta on there is just scarf koraidon and sash caly shadow
https://pokepast.es/3429152b5c9652eb is this a bad set of Pokémon
yes
I wanted to build a fun mono dragon team so what dragons would work better as a team
No shiny locked pokemon please
Dragapult is strong
How do u guys feel about 3 water move + protect kyogre?
@chrome knot helloing 
goodbhe
Wha why
sleepy
Ic
i dont wanna go to work…
I'm at work now and me neither LOL
L just for you
its been a very strong support for me this season
it looks derpy floating with his lil hands too
@bold geode i got like ratio’d yday
i used to laugh @ scotty for allowance and now he makes more than i do aftr conversion :v

Scotty how much you make
Minimum wage 😭
Bruh
cad sucks,,,,,
It's ok
Scotty still on peasant wage for retail
i wanna go work at costco thats like infinite money generator by doing literally nothing
What happened to Starbucks
i be hearing nothing back
Damn
Real but also sad
What happens when you have two Pokemon with Magic Bounce and one uses a status move like Spikes?
Volleyball
Idk I’m lying
I want to see what would happen.
This Pokemon is unaffected by certain non-damaging moves directed at it and will instead use such moves against the original user. Moves reflected in this way are unable to be reflected again by this or Magic Coat's effect. Spikes, Stealth Rock, Sticky Web, and Toxic Spikes can only be reflected once per side, by the leftmost Pokemon under this or Magic Coat's effect. The Lightning Rod and Storm Drain Abilities redirect their respective moves before this Ability takes effect.
That should answer your question
Tickle Whimsi is super good into Zama
Drop defense and with the atk drop bbash or heavy slam no longer kill you
The humble Dragon tera
LOL encore just repeats bloodmoon???
it struggles the next turn
Which is why you force them to burn the Tera early.
encore Ur own ubm
Yeah I found out but my ursa still took down a miraidon for free
What do I have that’s useful garbage
Galarian Weezing, Zamazenta, Flutter and Volcarona
Tho they are not good all together
Is behemoth bash and crunch and iron press 252 attack and 252 hp bad for zamazenta
Yes
Okay I need advice for how zamazenta is used then
@bold geode
First off what’s the main problem is it the moves or the evs
Both
Am I at least half right with the moves with iron press
Also how bad is behemoth bash for steel stab
Behemoth Bash is pretty good.
You can use either it or Heavy Slam, but that's up to you.
What did I say?
Y'know
I forget this is singles
Oh, it's for singles?
So I guess MAYBE it could work
But you want Def investment more considering you're gonna be attacking more with it
So 252 Atk is not it
Maybe 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def could work.
So remove some or all attack
I'd say like
Maybe 156 Def? Cuz you want some Spdef
Also, isn't there a page for Zamazenta on Smogon which provides you with a set and an analysis?
Is that an even split for defense and special defense
You don't need it
You need your Zamazenta to not eat shit to special attacks
Also secret
With Dauntless shield and Iron Defense
That shit won't be even
So 252 special defense instead with a special defense boosting nature
ohmygod
No no
You want Impish to boost physical defense
monke youre missing the key point here
defences must be the same by any means necessary
Even at the cost of my braincells?
Lmao
Look
Even split no matter
I don't understand the concept of why it needs to be that way
But that is not good
I don’t care about that anymore
And we need to stop
Anyways
I'd just start off like
252/4/156/0/x/4 with whatever EVs are left into Spdef
Be fat AF
Impish nature
I have tainted my error and I realize that I just suck
I should’ve left it to the professionals
liar
it is time we ev spread more mons to be exactly the same
monke did u know if all 6 of ur mons have the exact same stats they all fuse together
Anyways
Start out with what I said earlier
Can tweak but I would not go as far as to go FULLY into Spdef
And not be I don’t want to using gimmicky strategies anymore
I didn't know my team was the fuckin Exodia
Is that it, idfk Yu-Gi-Oh
But yeah just gave him 26 kelpsy berries
Which berry is that
The attack reducing one
Yea that
Do I need to lower its hp evs
Um nah keep max HP for now
Just like
156 EVs in Def (15 Vitamins and 6 feathers if curios)
I'd just put 4 EVs into Atk and Spe and whatever is left just dump that shit into Spdef for now
Also for Steel moves, unless you're having issues with something heavy, I'd do Heavy Slam cuz Zam is so fucking heavy that it hits for good damage most the time
156 defense or special defense
Defense
And what about special defense put the remaining evs into that
Yeah
If memory serves me correctly it should be 92?
Check on Showdown to be certain
I ultimately feel like a fool training everything wrong
Lol hey happens to the best of us
So that defense stat should make it 334 defense at level 100
I presume this is regular Zamazenta.
Yeah
Regular Zamazenta is very light compared to Crowned Shield and it doesn't even get Behemoth Bash.
Yeah
You can also plug it into SD and change the levels to compare (though note for Zam you have to compare regular Zam stats vs Crowned Zam stats)
Wait wait wait wait
Zamazenta
Without the Rusted Shield?

No I plan on using crowned
Crowned hits 400 Defense with those EVs.
its BSS singles
Yeah but in game you'll view Zam outside of Crowned form
The stats don't change until in battle
Yeah, it's kinda like the Primals.
Honestly I asked other comp helpers
You can just take stuff from Smogon tiers LMAO
i’m pretty sure munchstats has usage stats for bss too
so just steal sets and mons from there
Since there isn't a meme channel on this server as far as I'm aware, I'm going to post this here.
I got 389
I may or may not have run a mental calc using pre-nerf Zama.
The homeless man deflecting the microwaved honey bun I threw at him
no way max max min moment
Lmfao

Lol, I'm alright
That's good
How are you doing?
We vibin
On my last break rn
Ahh
Tonight gonna play some Rivals
And then tomorrow play in a big Smogon VGC tournament and try not to eat shit
Lol
Nice and I wish you much luc
haha fart
Hehehehehe fart
Being positive in mindset could definitely help
For sure
chat is there a way to use Ducklett competitively?
i didn't even know ducklett and swanna were in the game
well i want to have a Ducklett with the Master Ball tier ribbon
there's zero use for ducklett, i don't see a single niche it could fulfill
ig you could just slap it in a team and play with 5 pokemon
if I don't select Ducklett in the like... Pokemon selecting screen and win, will it still get the mark?
you
then I must obtain a Master Ball tier ribbon Ducklett
🫵
stinky
Just like you 
nooooo
hellou!
this is bullshit
:v
thought so
i dont see any message saying such things
actually went and deleted it
hmm my mysteroius reply calling you stinky where it says message replying to is deleted
I’m finding prio tw teams to be rough to deal with, maybe Fari isn’t the play
But I also like having helping hand so idk
?
you cant delete my messages
Emma stimky
Source: trust me bro
i cannor find the message he is talking abt
i am not stinky.
30m left of work then i can SLEEP YIPPPEEEE
you legit deleted it dont even
i will not be gaslit today unlike usual
yeah you wore a sweater in summer to work youre sweaty therefore stinky ty for telling people here
i came back from doing trash and closer was like “?? are u here till 9? I thought emma was..?”
and my brain stopped bc like what im literally emma
Do you guys really think that most of my collection is useless
awesome
bc i have my nametag on so he was momentarily confused why i was giggling
then went “oh..OH im so sorry”
bro knew you must be struggling lol
dude im literally running kitchen
its not that idk what doing its just im sleepy and dont like being here late
its past my bedtime
or do you mean youre swapping out
what
Can I not get by with an alolan raichu as a sweeper
idk if either of the other 2 would appreciate being around atm even if it were my choice
nuh uh
Can I ask real quick if you think I execute strategy well enough I can get by with almost any fully evolved Pokémon
me?
Can I just ask if the favs over meta is really a good point of view
Can I win faves over meta
to a high level very much unlikely
But do you think I can at least reach master ball tier with a team of favorites rather than what is commonly used
master ball is p easy to hit you can go below 50% wr to get
i did that first time i reached it
crazy what a few generations can do
mhm
Yep lmao

https://pokepast.es/0c8926bfe271c984 anyway question fellas, the first 5 imo work great. But I’m now struggling with tw teams and im feeling Fari is usually a dead slot, thoughts on some members to help me out? It is also a big help into tr and I have liked helping hand, but I think it should be smth else
w/o actually playing the format much recently id prolly give even less helpful teambuilding advice then usual
Damn, figured I’d ask but damn
@chrome knot I played a demo of MKW we had at the store
Ok I see it now, shit looks clean AF

tricots screams and rare occasion just in general i dont find feeling elsewhere
im so fucking disappointed
She’s okay
i made some banger food at work but i just cant find good youtube
so now this food is meh bc no content
Thanks auto correct
just being real, i feel like a lot of insights id have wouldnt necessarily be as accurate or well informed as they need to be if im only basing it off results and hearing what other people have to say, format has undergone quite a bit of transformation since i was last engaging with it regularly battle wise which i think is by far the best way to gauge how things actual seem to feel outside placement or useage

Yea fair
I just if I can't find shit
I'll look up gameplay series of old games I played as a child
girl doesnt wanna watch celeste speedrun i sent her smh
Or actually anyone know MostAmazingTop10 YT channel?
not at all
They're just another top 10 YT channel like one of those format right
I have a long ass playlist where this one guy on there would do like top 10 videos and it'd be scary shit


fair enough its just fun going waow idk how theyre moving like dat
sorry i’ll go 
Come back 
n.o
:(
I did
Can someone give me the best starter team for ogerpon (I’m new to PvP)
pvp?
there is no pvp its not minecraft
Pokemon vs pokemon?
Yo
?
so what do you wan't?
you said ogerpon i gave you ogerpon
the fire one is better
We are actively giving you teams with Ogerpon
who tf is people
the best ogerpon form usually depends on the team
you’re not gonna be building a team around ogerpon in the current format
My friends
We?
The chat
Should I make a defensive team if I’m new
Uh I only see 1 person sending me a team
But should I make a defensive team if I’m new
Sorry for starting a problem
Ok
So someone sent you a team with Ogerpon
And you said not it
When you asked for that
Also defensive as in how
Idk like tanky
If you're talking stall, nah
Nah I wanna do damage
It’s just that I wanna use follow me with ogerpon while I have a good offensive pokemon
Then you want bulky offense, which honestly that one team they sent you achieves that very well
Have Follow Me Ogerpon and you have double Fake Out to support one of the busted restricted duos
And Ogerpon can still smack shit
Good team for new folks imo
Can you make one for me? (Sorry for asking so many questions it’s just it’s my first time getting into competitive pokemon)
I was finna go to bed I apologize
I was just checking in here before I did
Oh
Sorry for bothering your sleep I’m just tryna figure out how competitive pokemon works and get into master ball rank
It would be my first time getting in a global ranking
If you could, could you make me a team?
there are like
buttload of Wellspring teams you can find with Labmaus-
and like its pretty fuckin easy to build wellspring
how did you get spored when you have miraidon-
You know, I find it kind of interesting that Zamazenta players think they can take a +1 Tera Fire Ivy Cudgel from FirePon.
In what world do you think you're taking that shit, bro?
Even a crit drops you the moment you're anywhere below 172 HP.
I'm around 1300 on Showdown, they should know.
But realistically speaking, right?
pivot is a thing 
In what world are you taking a super effective move with around 240 BP from a Pokemon with an actual Attack stat of 151 who just got a +1 off for free?
you'd be suprised
I don't even need Whimsicott for that crap, Zama just gets cooked for free.
Was their team CSR-Zamazenta?
can i see your team first
I don’t even remember the team now, I just remember Rilla and Porygon 2
Trick Room then
Legit replace Hands with CIR and you will be cooking people.
You can use two restricted Pokemon now.
proceeds to have Iron Hands
So does CIR.
Replace Hands with it, I swear it's GOATed.
Unless you're still playing Reg G.
i mean the only reason why Tailroom CIR got a finals Mirror Match is just Tang gang moment
It's goddamn Ice Rider Calyrex.
It can do almost anything it wants.
You can even go with Leech Seed to get recovery.
That's your problem.
Feel free to restrict yourself, I guess.
Does that work with Arubega?
He doesn't want Trick Room, so Ursaluna is out of the question.
Arubega is dead in this format i don't know what to tell you
He self-admittedly runs the Arubega team.
I’m not a bitch, I refuse to use Ursa. If you have to use Ursa you have no skill
Ursaluna gets cooked by so many things.
It takes skill to not switch it right in front of a Knock Off.
https://pokepast.es/5a84a3181dfd1c2f
You can swap Ursa with Hands if you really want
Only if Hands moves first and Ursaluna can't go Tera Ghost.
I mean my team is fine as is. I’m not worried about anything
i'll deal with it Paul
Cool.
its best Tera is just tera Ghost,Bug or Water for CIR matchup
its actually pretty easy to deal with
I get it. I refuse to run CSR too.
I’m saying the ones I’ve ran into are Tera Normal, I yet have ran into a Tera Ghost Ursa
what is your elo btw just asking
i mean i don't like playing CSR not because its no skill
Its more like i have skill issue on that restricted
i played all restricteds and i can say that case
GB1?
Great Ball 1.
I’m playing S/V not Showdown
thats like
also playing Comp with a mindset of
This pokemon has no skill and should not play it even tho its like good
Really,and i mean REALLY hinders your way to improve
If you want, I'll fight you in S/V.
you literally said this mon has no skill-
Putting Flame Orb on a Guts Ursa and Tera Normal is no skill
you crossed the line on Pagos
It's not even in the top 5.
It’s the biggest pain in the ass to deal with
Pagos is the most mid out of every relevant restricted tf you talking about-
Iron Hands is right there.
And Iron Hands with access to Electric Terrain.
AV Hands cooks Pagos so hard that it isn't even a joke.
like i love that you glaze pagos cuz i play it before but its so fucking mid that its best showing is only in junior division
master division is only top 6
its a restricted that if you want to get top 8 and then stop
Are they...deleting messages?
idek
yeah they're deleting messages
This is my first exposure to comp… I am doing what I can.
Sorry I don’t no life a game and know how to build a team
any new player is like that, you are not like the only one struggles
thats like only 1% of players in VGC (Ladder Grinders)
all the comp chat helpers have a life lol
He's left
What's happening in here
Considering this Whimsicott uses Tickle, I honestly couldn't have found a better OT for it.

fragile mindset ig-
he glazed the turtle and yeah he kinda just told em the truth
Yeah, it requires quite a bit of skill to use.
Everything kind of (except stall we don't talk about that)
arguebly more than just the better teras lmao
Cuz you forfeited a Miraidon immunity (On electric)
Fair enough not as easy too use on older reg due too much more better attack flying around now
It was probably going to click Draco into you anyway.
man
its harder than Bloodmoon ursa
i'd say BM ursa is easier
I mean yeah BM ursa doesn't need to worry about ghost type while regilar ursa does
