hollow latch

#

never change a winning formula, that's what i've learnt

sudden remnant
daring jungle
#

I maxed it already

sudden remnant
#

oh šŸ‘Øā€šŸ¦Æ

cyan smelt
#

idk what battle pass even is

scarlet matrix
sudden remnant
#

battle pass

#

okay i found a team im comfortable with

daring jungle
#

Nice

sudden remnant
scarlet matrix
daring jungle
#

Ggs

chilly sluice
#

why is only your umbreon nicknamed

daring jungle
#

Was not sure leaf storm was gonna kill

sudden remnant
sudden remnant
scarlet matrix
sudden remnant
#

its a different language

scarlet matrix
#

what deals with floette here

sudden remnant
#

swords dance mikyukyu

scarlet matrix
#

eh

daring jungle
#

You okay @hollow latch?

sudden remnant
#

i should name my team fr

chilly sluice
#

2 mega stones

#

gaming

sudden remnant
#

gives me 2 megas to work with

cyan smelt
#

as soon as i changed my team back i beat sun

ocean pawn
daring jungle
#

Lol nice

cyan smelt
#

i'm no longer tilted

scarlet matrix
sudden remnant
scarlet matrix
#

i run floette and aero to deal with the things floette can’t handle

sudden remnant
#

Kalos i named the umbreon Ace

#

fitting dontcha think

cyan smelt
#

umbreon is goated, how does it deal with mega floette

sudden remnant
#

eat a hit and then click yawn

#

force a switch or let whatever i have next to moon cat smack it while its asleep (most likely SD mimikyu)

sudden remnant
#

SilvervaleSideEye are you doubting my cat

scarlet matrix
#

uhhhh

#

perchance

ocean pawn
scarlet matrix
sudden remnant
#

if i can eat 3 bug buzz a pixilate hypervoice and 2 pixilate quick attacks i think i can live a +2 moonblast

scarlet matrix
#

floette just wipes things at neutral

ocean pawn
#

yeah mega floette is bascially xern

#

and in a limited dex like champions it's very hard to deal with

tiny karmaBOT
chilly sluice
scarlet matrix
#

just trust me

sudden remnant
#

bro mega aerodactyl is a crazy strong mon

#

150 speed alone makes it good enough to use

scarlet matrix
#

it does well into sun which is a bad mu for floette so 🤷

#

good enough for me

sudden remnant
#

i have registered for the warm up challenge

cyan smelt
#

fuck yes i crit arch

ocean pawn
sudden remnant
chilly sluice
#

problem is its ability doesn't even make sense. Best moves don't even make contact and there's better speed picks

hollow latch
scarlet matrix
#

albeit i’ve never actually brought floette into sun so i might have to try that

cyan smelt
#

fuck i lost cos i megad too early

sudden remnant
hollow latch
cyan smelt
#

fuck rain

sudden remnant
#

i should hunt in sv for a shiny hisuian zoroark

cyan smelt
#

i should have sucker punched the basc

ocean pawn
sudden remnant
#

yes

#

its still hunting

cyan smelt
#

i don't think my team is good enough

sudden remnant
#

can i see it

sudden remnant
ocean pawn
#

yeah send so we can look at it

cyan smelt
#

wtf mega lopunny is faster than sneasler?

sudden remnant
#

yes

#

mega lopunny is base 135

cyan smelt
#

fuck's sake they always protect

sudden remnant
#

i was in this game and i wish my gardevoir had traced the kingambits supreme overlord but it traced the mega froslass snow warning instead i was sad

cyan smelt
#

i don't want to play vgc anymore

sudden remnant
#

bro moxieboosted’s team is wild

#

mega delphox gyarados alolan ninetales chomp orthworm and sneasler

cyan smelt
#

i keep losing to rain teams

sudden remnant
#

i keep losing to trick room and sand

#

we all have bad matchups gang

cyan smelt
#

i keep losing to every weather

hollow latch
sudden remnant
#

for delphox? yeah

hollow latch
sudden remnant
#

same for greninja chesnaught and floette

cyan smelt
#

this guy is using flare blitz in rain i can't believe i lost to that

sudden remnant

sudden remnant
hollow latch
# cyan smelt

Ik u dont wanna hear it but i feel like gilscor its meh here

#

Ik its a sneasler counter

cyan smelt
#

i tried garchomp and it was worse

sudden remnant
#

kalos just hear me out on this change ninetales evs to 32 hp 2 defense and 32 speed and make it timid

cyan smelt
#

it's already max speed max sp attack timid

sudden remnant
#

change it to max hp instead

ocean pawn
cyan smelt
#

garchomp sucked

grand horizon
#

Uh question, i thought champions was also gonna be available on mobile phone?

sudden remnant
#

it is later in the year

grand horizon
ocean pawn
#

they did say it will be avalible later in the lastest pokemon presents

grand horizon
#

Cuz i dont wanna lose my shiny serperior

sudden remnant
grand horizon
#

Cuz some of them took months to hatch and train

sudden remnant
#

and if you send them back to champs the changes you made will be there

grand horizon
#

You have no idea how hard it was to hatch a perfect iv shiny snivy with hidden ability

sudden remnant
#

i do actually

grand horizon
#

Ik u can make em perfect by capsule its just i wanted natural mons

grand horizon
sudden remnant
#

im gonna start breeding for a shiny hisuian zorua later

grand horizon
#

Im gonna try and hatch a mareanie ha shiny

sudden remnant
#

you should see my violet boxes

#

do you need a nuzzle mystical fire hatenna by any chance

cyan smelt
#

that was a tedious battle, mega gengar kept using sub and they had 3 dark types

sudden remnant
#

bro i had this one gengar click reflect type on my dark protean meowscarada

chrome knot
sudden remnant
#

it died to cc from my lopunny immediately after

grand horizon
#

I kinda want naturals

sudden remnant
grand horizon
#

Which is genuinely frustrating

chrome knot
#

isn’t there an item that passes down ivs

sudden remnant
#

yeah destiny knot

grand horizon
#

Except i also have this insane obsession that my mons should come from their corresponding generation game

#

Ik im crazy

sudden remnant
#

😨

#

yesh thats too far

grand horizon
#

Honestly much more enjoyable tho

sudden remnant
#

i mean i could hunt for hisuian zorua in arceus

#

but i dont wanna do that

grand horizon
#

Imagine the flex tho

chrome knot
#

ig other shiny hunters would care or smth

sudden remnant
#

that its from arceus and not bred in sv?

cyan smelt
#

how is whims faster than sneasler?

tiny karmaBOT
sudden remnant
#

probably max speed timid

cyan smelt
#

i hate this shit

#

and the gambit has brick break wtf

sudden remnant
#

kalos its a new format theres a lot of stuff we all have to learn

cyan smelt
#

this is not fun for me

winter fox
#

Finally got a chance to play. I built two teams in the two hours that I've played.

sudden remnant
cyan smelt
#

i'm getting my fucking ass whooped

sudden remnant
#

psychic fangs might be better

#

but that requires me to run a physical move on my manectric

cyan smelt
#

every time i get to ultra ball 3 i get kicked right back down again

sudden remnant
#

brick break would be on meowscarada

winter fox
cyan smelt
#

i'm not using that

sudden remnant
#

peli arch basc sneasler

winter fox
sudden remnant
#

dont lead torkoal

#

lead your tr setter and either farig or magic bounce hatterene

#

or make them the tr setter that would work

#

and hear me out

#

shed tail orthworm

#

farig or hatterene set tr shed tail orthworm into torkoal

winter fox
sudden remnant
spiral zealot
#

hatterene is really good for trick room

sudden remnant
#

hatterene is good in general it gets a lot of good moves

winter fox
#

I have Farig and Mimikyu for Trick Room

sudden remnant
#

i can get you a hatterene

winter fox
#

Might replace Mimikyu it's just there lmao

wild knot
cyan smelt
#

some people are really cooked and some have never played this before and there's no in between, it's frustrating

winter fox
sudden remnant
#

i have 5 boxes of hattenas

#

the offer stands lmao

cyan smelt
#

i honestly just have to play smarter against sneasler

#

lead a9 sneasler and fake out

hollow latch
#

A lot of chomp,guardevoir and inc

winter fox
#

Anybody else struggled to find their Mega Stones or other items too?

sudden remnant
#

no

hollow latch
#

Quite surprised about the Lack of mega foletta

winter fox
spiral zealot
chrome knot
#

itll pick up more as time goes on

#

planning on climbing to masters today with it

sharp cobalt
#

I need a shiny Aromatisse...

hollow latch
#

I mean i would like to try the mega fox but dont have the guy

hollow latch
cyan smelt
#

lessssgooooo i beat sneasler mega froslass snow

#

chrome knot
cyan smelt
#

floette is cooking

hollow latch
#

how speedy is floetta?

#

only played 1 time and got lucky that i outspeed because that thing hits like something else lol

chrome knot
#

max timid lmao

cyan smelt
#

light of ruin hurts my gambit badly

chrome knot
#

i’ve debated evs a bit abt being full bulk vs min bulk and

#

outspeeding even at neutral does insane damage

cyan smelt
#

is mega clefable unaware?

chrome knot
#

magic bounce

hollow latch
#

bounce

cyan smelt
#

thank fuck

sharp cobalt
#

Boioing

sharp cobalt
#

But yeah I get your thought prices

#

Process*

hollow latch
hollow latch
chrome knot
cyan smelt
#

i feel like i'm getting to grips with this team again, maybe i will replace gliscor with chomp

hollow latch
#

arch was nice because it could get hit with special move and survive but wihout it losing hard to strong hitting guys

hollow latch
south pumice
#

Yeh although having flash cannon ensure ttar dies

hollow latch
south pumice
#

No body press still hurts

sharp cobalt
#

Who's the best tr setter rn? Hat and Aromatisse I think?

foggy lodge
#

Farigiraf

hollow latch
#

but ye without assualt vest ur die

sharp cobalt
south pumice
#

I’ve been running protect againt the very ouchy moves

hollow latch
#

with bridge?

south pumice
#

Yeh seems to be doing fine

hollow latch
#

hmm got try it

cyan smelt
#

ykw maybe ultra ball 3 is just tough to get out of

hollow latch
#

i feel like aura sphere helped against the mirror and gambit/incin and sand so idk

south pumice
#

Might try aura sphere later

chrome knot
#

floette is ruining my swag tho

#

5 love balls & 1 pokeball on my character lmfao

shadow wind
#

Ultra ball rank 1, one more rank

hollow latch
#

u got this man

shadow wind
#

Genuinely so much harder than the SV ladder

foggy lodge
#

emma what are you running with floette

chrome knot
#

sand

foggy lodge
#

i saw someone running something with pelipper basculegion floette

chrome knot
#

the worst mastchup for floette is sun

cyan smelt
#

i'm proud that i managed to lead sneasler a9 into sneasler harc and fake out sneasler

chrome knot
#

by alot, so I just running it w/ basic sand

daring jungle
#

I just ran into a team that has 5 of the same mons

#

Help

shadow wind
#

Has anyone here hit Masterball yet?

daring jungle
#

Yes, i think simple has

foggy lodge
#

Day 1

shadow wind
#

Goated

#

I couldn’t play day 1 šŸ˜”

#

Didn’t have me Aegislash

foggy lodge
#

you got this bro

cyan smelt
#

i'm never getting to masterball

foggy lodge
#

genuinely laddering here feels so good idk how i could even play a single in game ladder in SV

#

How did i even get to master ball in that game

shadow wind
hollow latch
#

ladder in SV felt bad man

pearl wind
#

go get that masterball !!

foggy lodge
#

Tera in cts is just terrible

hollow latch
#

but i think because there is more bots in champion and most of the player are pretty new

shadow wind
#

Spell tag Aegislash is my goat

#

That poltergeist be doing way too much

daring jungle
#

I think my favourite pseudo is chomp. Ive never dropped him from my team

hollow latch
#

chomp is just the guy. man if only the cooked a blue shiny for it

daring jungle
#

Ya

#

Ive just hit 50 wins with it

#

Im sure others have already hit 100

#

Someone rage quit after i knocked out their first mon being farigiraf

#

It was venu and torkoal vs incin and farigiraf. Turn 1 was sleep powder into fari, incin fake out torkoal

#

Turn 2 was sleep powder into incin, eruption

hollow latch
daring jungle
#

Venu torkoal kinda destroys TR

cyan smelt
#

Maybe the way i beat sneasler teams is to lead sneasler a9 and fake out the sneasler first and set up screens, every other approach i've tried has failed

daring jungle
#

Cause they always lead farig

cyan smelt
#

It seems like the right approach

daring jungle
#

Well, cause of torkaol, they cant set it otherwise etuption go brr

#

But without it, venu just spans sleep powder (hopefully it doesnt miss)

#

But im now in ultra 3 on a 5 win streak

#

Im scared

cyan smelt
#

Also if i ever encounter mega aggron again i don't have to worry about body press into gliscor

#

And i can wisp it with skeledirge

#

Dunno why i was so eager to abandon what was working

shadow wind
#

Rotom is my goat 🤧🤧🤧

#

Bro lived everything and double ko’d for me to win

cyan smelt
#

Which rotom

shadow wind
#

What do you mean master ball rank 4

#

Top 10 plot twists

shadow wind
#

Yo what do you mean Masterball rank 4😭😭😭

#

Champion tier 🫩

#

That ain’t a ball

daring jungle
#

Im seriously thinking about putting some special bulk on my garchomp. It keeps getting ohkod by stupid draco meteor

shadow wind
#

Haban berry moment

daring jungle
#

For so e reason, hydreigon and dragonight always outspeed

shadow wind
#

So happy I’m ranked #1,818,395

#

Man I hate it here

daring jungle
#

Where do you see that

shadow wind
#

When you hit Masterball

daring jungle
#

Oop

shadow wind
#

Bro it is 3 am

#

I’m dying

#

All that hard effort just to be told I’m not even in the top million players 😭😭😭

shadow wind
#

Yeah

mighty stump
#

You can check??? sick

shadow wind
#

But there’s one above it now

#

So there’s 16 ranks before you’re capped out I think

daring jungle
#

Why does mega ttar reset sand when it megas. Its stupid

shadow wind
#

Ok I went like 28-6

#

That’s not even bad

mighty stump
#

Champions

cyan smelt
#

I don't want to know, i've lost so many times

mighty stump
#

Where do you check your WR

shadow wind
#

Don’t know how many I lost for sure but I kept track of 6

#

You can see how many times you won though

cyan smelt
#

New format so ofc it's gonna be a struggle

shadow wind
#

Profile then gameplay stats

mighty stump
#

okok

#

thx

shadow wind
#

Yuh

#

Man this game just got so much harder though

mighty stump
#

any ribbons for winning in masters

shadow wind
#

Not sure haven’t won there yet

#

Just got there and now I’m calling it a night cause it’s 3 am

mighty stump
#

lol

#

what team you using

shadow wind
#

After the soul crushing info of being 4 ranks away still

#

Pretty much this but Garchomp is white herb and Aegislash is spell tag

mighty stump
#

neat

shadow wind
#

It’s ok at best

#

No set up in this kind of meta is cranking me

#

Set up is like essential right now

#

Cause no boosting items anyway so might as well click sd

#

Oh I got the free Meganium from the battle pass

#

Makes it so worth it…

#

Oh wait it’s in a cherish ball

#

Maybe it was actually worth it

#

Wait does that mean everyone using mega meganium already made it this far in the battle pass?

cyan smelt
#

I think i might replace drain punch on kang with power up punch if it gets it still

shadow wind
#

It doesn’t

cyan smelt
#

Well there goes that plan

shadow wind
#

I run drain punch on Kang

#

I like it

cyan smelt
#

Me too and double edge

shadow wind
#

Yur

cyan smelt
#

I'm wondering if i switch a9 for mega froslass because it's way better into sneasler and can't be faked out

shadow wind
#

Oh ok

#

Wait

#

My rating is 1800

#

Not #1.8 million

#

Also just lost to a scarf Zoroark into dire claw sleep

#

So fire

#

But anyway

molten oasis
#

I haven’t played yet

shadow wind
#

Why did they decide 3 decimal places was needed for a rating

molten oasis
#

Been busy playing Magic

daring jungle
molten oasis
shadow wind
#

I’m so confused on this rating system

#

@foggy lodge what’s your rating

daring jungle
#

Why did they decide to give mega altaria the fairy type

shadow wind
#

Ok I really don’t understand this rating system

#

I’m Masterball rank 4 but I have like a global challenge rating

#

Maxi you got any clue what’s going on?

#

Cause how do we go higher than Masterball rank 4?

#

There’s no gauge for wins anymore

#

Yeah I got no idea

#

All I know is that you get more VP for champion rank

#

Whoa you can check the mons being used??

#

And their exact spreads and the usages of them šŸ’€

#

This is crazy

#

I wonder if Masterball ranks higher than 4 are locked behind higher ratings

#

That seems like a terrible system though

#

@mighty stump You do indeed get ā€œX mom The Rank Masterā€ ribbons still from winning in Masterball

chrome knot
#

losing games to calcs ive never put in before lmao

cyan smelt
#

What are you losing to

chrome knot
#

random lucario milotic at the function

shadow wind
#

Milotic lowkey a problem

chrome knot
#

cyan smelt
#

That's weird, have not seen a single lucario

chrome knot
#

NEITHER HAVE I UNTIL NOW LOL

shadow wind
cyan smelt

Milotic the only scald user in the meta

shadow wind
#

Also it got cm

cyan smelt
#

And it's really bulky with lefties

chrome knot
#

cyan smelt

Floette is a nuke

sudden remnant
#

why is this mega dnite running espeed

shadow wind
#

I don’t know best I can think of right now but if it’s working then probably just leave it how it is

#

It’s also 4:30 am so my critical thinking skills are in the toilet

sudden remnant
#

WHAT IN THE REG H IS THIS

shadow wind
#

And maybe they’re just using the premade gift Dnite set

shadow wind
#

I hate Whimsicott

sudden remnant
#

what in the reg h is this team

cyan smelt
#

where do i go to claim machamp

shadow wind
#

Probably submenu then there’s probably a mystery gift section

sudden remnant
#

mystery gift menu same menu you claim achievements

shadow wind
#

I just be assuming I know how PokƩmon makes their menus

#

And usually I’m right

#

Cause there’s 4 buttons on the menus 😭

hollow latch

What is bright powder

#

Fairy coverage

sudden remnant

Garchomp run poison jab ror Whims, Mega Garde, or Mega Meganium

My mega Garde lived a chomp poison jab once

#

Still don’t know how it did

sudden remnant

#

I haven't played a ton yet, but think im like 9-1 atm

shadow wind
#

W

sudden remnant
#

MEGA AMPHAROS??? I LIKE THIS GUY ALREADY

shadow wind
#

I was like 28-6 when I hit Masterball

real prairie
#

have to account for the 2 bots they make you fight in the opening games though i guess

shadow wind
#

But you could do it quicker if you streak better

real prairie
#

hate bots in comp, absolute nonsense

shadow wind
#

There’s just so many ranks

shadow wind
#

Haven’t seen one in a while

real prairie
shadow wind
#

W lose streaks !

real prairie
#

apparently you will get a bot any time you lose 3 on the bounce

shadow wind
#

Oh weird

#

I only ever lost 2 in a row and it only happened once so I wouldn’t know

real prairie
#

but not sure what rank(s) that applies too

shadow wind
#

I’d imagine like great ball and below

real prairie
#

Pokemon once again managing to make a game without any clear information 🤣

shadow wind
#

Yeah

real prairie
#

lets code a bunch of shit and not tell anyone lol

shadow wind
#

Masterball makes zero sense

cyan smelt
#

ugh skeledirge got owned by blizzard and dazzling gleam from floette

shadow wind
#

Many such cases

sudden remnant
#

jack claim the mystery machamp

real prairie
#

whats the code bro?

sudden remnant
#

code is CHAMP10N

shadow wind
#

When’s it expire?

real prairie
#

danke, will claim now

cyan smelt
#

oh shit first mega aerodactyl

shadow wind
#

Mega aero is sick

sudden remnant
real prairie
#

I also dislike it picks and chooses when i can use the touch screen, do you know how much nicer it would be to play the whole thing touch

shadow wind
#

I’ve played with it docked the whole time so I got no clue

#

And now that I’ve played for 5 straight hours I gotta take a week break or something

real prairie
#

whats the set for mega starmie atm?

shadow wind
#

I played a bulk up set

#

Like against it

cyan smelt
#

why did i lead kang and a9 into sneasler

shadow wind
#

It’s probably either bulk up or aqua jet

#

Then just both stabs

#

I’d say triple axel but it doesn’t learn it anymore

cyan smelt
#

damn aerodactyl is good, looks like i lose another

shadow wind
#

I didn’t see any really freaky teams when I played

#

It was all boring rain or sun

chrome knot
shadow wind
#

And my team was just ok into them

real prairie
#

someone tried the anger point krookadile team against me like it wasn't my first ever comp team lol

cyan smelt
#

i need to start thinking about what i lead

shadow wind
real prairie
#

just jet punched the krook and let them kill it with flower trick lol

cyan smelt
#

because i keep losing because of stupid decisions

shadow wind
#

I guess I should’ve made a ā€œrentalā€ for my team

cyan smelt
#

ultra ball 3 is so tough to get out of

real prairie
shadow wind
#

Cause I hit Masterball šŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„ or whatever

#

Not even the highest rank anymore

jack my zoroark landed a focus miss and ohkod my opponents archaludon

#

this is landed focus miss number 14

real prairie
#

this is why i run sturdy arch lol

shadow wind
#

I’d rather see sturdy than stamina any day

#

I hate stamina arch

#

Probably cause I have no set up

cyan smelt
#

just 4-0ed a sun team, feels good bro

real prairie
#

its bit shit now, no body press

cyan smelt
#

no AV either

sudden remnant
#

true

shadow wind
#

I mean stamina + electro shot in a format without Lando or Ursa BM he’s gonna be good

real prairie
#

when the AV comes back maybe, can still run aura sphere

shadow wind
#

Earth power doesn’t exist anymore šŸ˜”

#

I miss any mons actually using it

cyan smelt

sun teams are always so predictable

real prairie
#

think my politoed still has it lol

shadow wind

Bros dealing 30% to Archaludon 😭😭😭

Weather ball lowkey does more

cyan smelt

I wish PokƩmon explained the entire new ranking system for Masterball at all

#

But they love trolling šŸ˜”

knotty mirage
#

What's wrong master ball tier ?

chrome knot
#

theres 4 tiers of it but master 4 is just a rating

shadow wind
#

Exactly that

#

And the rating means nothing really

#

Cause there’s no ranking to go with the rating

knotty mirage
#

Ah i see so it just some kind of visual bug

shadow wind
#

Nah it looks intentional

#

Also in the format rules it says there’s higher ranks but you can’t get to em

knotty mirage
#

Will just see maybe they would fix it on the maintenance and next update steamhappy

cyan smelt
#

mega kang rules

shadow wind
#

Sure does

cyan smelt

just beat a rain team

shadow wind

But yeah I don’t know Masterball right now is cooked so whatever

Maybe I play some BSS

also holy moly sneasler CC ohko an arch

Hit Masterball in both šŸ”„šŸ”„

BSS isn’t even a real format

i wanna hit master ball today but theres so many different floette teams i wanna try

maybe i just needed to learn how to pilot my team

i gotta trust the sneasler CCs more

Xerneas lite

What’s with you and bwahacough bro 😭😭

he's the most goated person ever

oh shit i just realised my skeledirge's evs are suboptimal for lefties recovery

#

unless that's now changed

sleek vortex
#

I’ve just found out imma have to play pla all over again 😭

#

I lost my save and need a sneasler

cyan smelt
#

what's the formula now for lefties recovery

shadow wind
#

16x

sleek vortex
cyan smelt
#

so my hp stat needs to be an even number?

shadow wind
#

Needs to be a 16x

cyan smelt
#

ohhhh gotcha

harsh depot
#

Can you pre-train in other games for Champions? Unsure if the 7 bucks before tax is worth it

cyan smelt
#

you can

harsh depot
#

Yeah

shadow wind
#

Cause if it rounds down at 159 hp you’ll get 9 but at 160 you’ll get 10 and 161-175 you’ll get 10

#

So optimal is exactly a multiple of 16

sleek vortex
cyan smelt
#

ok skeledirge is now 208 hp, perfect

harsh depot
#

True, but box space?

cyan smelt
#

50 mons

shadow wind
#

You actually unlock box space by getting new ranks

supple latch
#

For us Aussies, it’s $10 before tax

shadow wind

20 extra in total SO FAR

harsh depot

Oh, so there's no need if I'm just trying it out

Whole point of vgc is that your partners can cover your weaknesses

it has nothing to hit fairies very well with they don’t die to flower trick and triple axel likes to miss when you need it not to

Why would it be fair that one mon gets to hit every Mon
