[timber falcon]

but t100 is amazing

[shadow wind]

Eh my GXE is absolutely cooked on this account

I’m honestly not too hurt about it

I’m just happy I hit 1800

Mega meganium lowkey carried my final game too

[timber falcon]

meganium sand or rain?

[shadow wind]

https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9championsvgc2026regma-2600368530-7jteo0t6rbcvjpyu0tw3yp48u738wn0pw

Sand

[foggy lodge]

insane

Have you ever hit 1800 before?

[shadow wind]

Yeah once in Reg H1

With Ttar drill Corv 😭😭

[foggy lodge]

LMAO

[shadow wind]

What can I say

I like my sand

[foggy lodge]

You have to ladder on champions you are ladder demon

[shadow wind]

I would if I could

[foggy lodge]

Ah yeah i forgot

[shadow wind]

Maybe I’ll see if there’s an internet cafe I can chill at one day

[timber falcon]

kinda left kommo-o hanging 😭

[shadow wind]

Bro had to go

For the greater good

Excadrill also got exploded

[timber falcon]

with the burn too

[shadow wind]

But meganium beat literally everything but the harc

That solar beam does damage

[timber falcon]

thinking about it

are teams like that normal so high up the ladder?

[shadow wind]

Nah

Honestly when I saw I got matched into a Manectric I started rejoicing

Usually they’re all Zards and floettes and Sneaslers and chomps

[timber falcon]

meganium genuinely runs through most of that team alone wow

[shadow wind]

I haven’t played a single sand mirror

[foggy lodge]

Shoutout to Volc for letting us not have an instalose to Sneasler Bascu Gambit

[shadow wind]

Praise be

[timber falcon]

what does volc do for the team?

[foggy lodge]

Redirection tw support and its good into floette and other megas

[shadow wind]

Redirection for the fighting and fairies

[foggy lodge]

Its also cool to have it into Froslass

[shadow wind]

Yeah real

Struggle bug is honestly pretty mid in this meta but whatever

[timber falcon]

and corv is a wall + tw?

[forest arrow]

Rock slide says hello

[shadow wind]

Corv doesn’t have TW, just a Garchomp aero mu fixer

[foggy lodge]

We had Maushold before but even with chople it just lost to Sneasler Gambit anyways and both of our megas are giga weak to Sneasler so we went for volc because with investment it can live stuff from the triangle of this format

[timber falcon]

oh you both made this?

[shadow wind]

It lives an adamant rock slide from chomp

[foggy lodge]

Yeah

[timber falcon]

looks real cool

[shadow wind]

Power of teamwork

And it has a 75% chance to live a 32 jolly aero rock slide

I wonder if wisp is better than struggle bug

Nah

[foggy lodge]

Maybe

It went over my head that Volc is faster than Arcanine lmao

[shadow wind]

Volc is honestly the goat

[shadow wind]

Has more hp than Kommo 🥀🥀🥀

[foggy lodge]

And spa

And speed

[shadow wind]

And speed…

[foggy lodge]

And probably more spdef

[shadow wind]

And spdef??

[shadow wind]

Nah same

They have the same effective bst

[foggy lodge]

only if it had throat spray man

[shadow wind]

That’s funny

490 BST warriors

[foggy lodge]

lol

[shadow wind]

Not like Ttar

My wonderful king

[foggy lodge]

Nah Tytar is a monster

[shadow wind]

God I love Ttar

[foggy lodge]

How tf do you kill Aegislash through shield form😭

[shadow wind]

By being frickin awesome

We have 2 mons that do that…

[forest arrow]

Do yall not have overheat on Volc

[shadow wind]

Nah heatwave

The fire move is pretty whatever

Just something and I like disregarding redirection

[forest arrow]

yeah either way still good damage into it

Ttar is also SE into it

[shadow wind]

That Volc can live 2 spell tag poltergeists also

[forest arrow]

Wait drill too, yall have plenty for it lol

And weatherball

[shadow wind]

Honestly Aegislash is 0 problem

Basc is probably the biggest threat?

But both megas “can” kill it

I kinda wish we had some prio but sand breaks sashes anyway

[forest arrow]

Yeah basc is that guy

I think it beats everything not gambit lmao

[shadow wind]

Heliolisk 🤓

[forest arrow]

trueeee

[shadow wind]

But yeah the team is flames

[forest arrow]

Looks good

[shadow wind]

I’m happy with how it turned out

Went through 4 variations?

[forest arrow]

Meganium sand rocks

[shadow wind]

Big ones anyway

[foggy lodge]

Uhhh

We had the arcanine version

[shadow wind]

Sneak peak into the builder

[foggy lodge]

Oh yeah delphox

[shadow wind]

I’m so sorry Ttar for ever removing you 🤧🤧

[foggy lodge]

Delphox lasted like 20 minuted and we went to Tytar

[shadow wind]

God Delphox sucked

[forest arrow]

Don’t let Drago see that

[molten oasis]

Delphox Ttar is too clunky to function well

[shadow wind]

It’s funny seeing the progression of fire types

[forest arrow]

Lmao right as I say that

Can’t make it up

[shadow wind]

The fire type and redirection evolution the team had might need to be studied

[molten oasis]

I think Delphox needs to be in its mega too often for you to really use it next to Ttar

[forest arrow]

Anyways monke was convincing me on Meganium

So idk, I’ve been in a loop

Was playing scovillan and he’s actually pretty funny

[shadow wind]

And you want to bring Delphox too much I think

[molten oasis]

If you go a double mega route, which I did, and otherwise you just suck absolute ass into basc and gambit

[shadow wind]

I’m perfectly fine leaving the meganium at home

[molten oasis]

Yup

Ik he means with Ttar not in general

[shadow wind]

🙏🙏

[molten oasis]

Yeah this is fine

[shadow wind]

I’m just happy I got to not use Sneasler Basc or gambit

[molten oasis]

I feel like not bringing phox was detrimental

[shadow wind]

Pretty much

It’s too important to the team

134 speed does that to a mega

[molten oasis]

Yuh

[foggy lodge]

Tytar is also cool cuz he is just that guy and we can bring it next to Meganium and just mega meganium

[shadow wind]

Ttar is such a guy

[molten oasis]

Ttar’s really cool

Probably the only other mega I had even a remote amount of success with

Didn’t like Gengar, haven’t tried lass, and I don’t wanna play floette or zard

[foggy lodge]

I had a super weird endgame the other day where I had Meganium Tytar in front of Chari Y Venu and I had to Mega Tytar instead of Meganium

[shadow wind]

And drill is my favourite steel type of all time

[foggy lodge]

And Meganium lived a sludge bomb from Venusaur cuz i didn't mega lmao

[shadow wind]

Rock type weather ball 💥💥💥

[forest arrow]

Ttar is prob my fav suedo

[shadow wind]

Usually bringing meganium and not mega’ing it means you brought 3 mons

[foggy lodge]

Yeah

[shadow wind]

So you gotta be smart on when you bring it in weather wars

[foggy lodge]

83 spa🥀

[shadow wind]

Cause that Dgleam hits for like 20% on Garchomp 😭😭😭

And not stab

[foggy lodge]

And you dont have solar beam no stab dazzling and stuck using rock weather ball

[shadow wind]

And you even have weaker solar beam

[foggy lodge]

60 BP solar beam hell nah

[shadow wind]

60 BP Solar beam 🥀

That’s why Ttar eats those from Zard y

In sand anyway

[cyan smelt]

Maybe I'm struggling because everyone prepared for sneasler, gambit and basc

[molten oasis]

Doesn’t Meganium ignore other weather properties?

[shadow wind]

I know our team was literally designed to kill those guys

[shadow wind]

After mega yeah

[forest arrow]

Only mega

[bold geode]

Yes

[molten oasis]

Ok I thought so

[shadow wind]

But if you mega Ttar gg

[forest arrow]

they’re talking non mega

[foggy lodge]

It ignores the sand boost LMAO

[molten oasis]

Was gonna say isn’t it shit in fucking sand then lol

[foggy lodge]

It one shots opposing Tytars

[bold geode]

Pretty sure Meganium still one shots no

[molten oasis]

Wait that’s fire

[shadow wind]

Yeah

[cyan smelt]

I mean in gc there have been rotoms and scizors everywhere

[shadow wind]

Still haven’t seen a single other Ttar

[foggy lodge]

Ive seen a few

[molten oasis]

There was a good time I was playing Meganium with phox

[forest arrow]

Joe ugartes team should be popular

[molten oasis]

I just don’t think phox is a double mega Mon right now

[shadow wind]

Nah I don’t think so either

And if it is the other mega is crab

[molten oasis]

Lmfao

[shadow wind]

Just have 2 completely different modes

[molten oasis]

I mean I guess, I think it’s not that atmosphere for it

[shadow wind]

Nah me neither

[molten oasis]

Phox has a lot of good mu’s

And too little to leave behind

[shadow wind]

Yup

[molten oasis]

Not that it doesn’t have bad mu’s Milo and basc are fucking annoying

[shadow wind]

Which is why meganium is my fire type mega of choice

My favourite fairy fire type ❤️

Nah honestly it’s more a grass fire type than anything

[foggy lodge]

Fairy fire until it gets hit by weather ball from chari Y

[shadow wind]

Gulp

Nah but the grass type makes it better I swear

Garchomp mu 🤓

Honestly I think it’s typing is actually huge on a Ttar team

Cause Ttar drill get dumpstered by chomp

[timber falcon]

oh my god

wiped by stockpile lax

wonderful

[cyan smelt]

I'm still struggling against sneasler teams and I think it's because of the teammates like scizor, rotom/basc

[shadow wind]

Bro just said he’s struggling against the most used mon

Ggs

[cyan smelt]

I said it's because of the teammates

[loud bramble]

Aerodactyl + a priority negation mon like tsarenaa or the giraffe works wonders

[cyan smelt]

Idk how that'll go when the teammates are basc, scizor or rotom wash

[timber falcon]

whats ur team

[loud bramble]

It mostly depends on the rest of the team, i personally run scarf rena and so far she has deal with the washing machine well. Then i just have zard and kanga in the back to deal with scizor and basculegion

[cyan smelt]

Maybe my team is too slow, it's a9, gliscor, gambit, sneasler, skeledirge, mega kang

Still don't understand how that non scarf hisuian samurott outsped gliscor, must have been max speed

[loud bramble]

I think you could maybe swap gliscor for giraffe and go for a trickroom mega kanga with hammer hand team

[cyan smelt]

With sneasler being the only fast mon?

[sudden remnant]

did i just hear that watchog made day 2 at a tournament

[cyan smelt]

What does watchog do

[sudden remnant]

analytic ice punch i guess

[loud bramble]

Analytic crunch ice punch and fighting move + hypnosis

[loud bramble]

Basically lives hits from basculegion garchomp and kingambit and can trade into them

[cyan smelt]

Well I've learnt to not dismiss any pokemon

[loud bramble]

Its not a oneshot on legion tho

[sudden remnant]

thats so cool though

[cyan smelt]

I think conner was experimenting with watchog

[sudden remnant]

this is why i like lower formats cuz who would ever think to use mons liek watchog

[sudden remnant]

you mean mr groudon?

[cyan smelt]

Yeah

[sudden remnant]

hell yeah

chat is there a way i can see what mons all get entrainment in champions

is there a forum for that yet

[cyan smelt]

Can't you just type it in the showdown chat

[sudden remnant]

what

[cyan smelt]

Like isn't there a way in showdown to see a list of every mon that can learn a move

Wait, just type entrainment in the builder

[sudden remnant]

Lopunny gets it

interesting.....

entrainment scrappy

[loud bramble]

On what would you use it tho?

[cyan smelt]

Skill swap huge power onto gambit lol

[sudden remnant]

what

[cyan smelt]

Mega starmie skill swap huge power onto gambit

[sudden remnant]

gross

[loud bramble]

Ive seen intimidate wyrdeer skill swap to trigger competitive for meowstick

[sudden remnant]

umbreon skill swap inner focus could be cool

[loud bramble]

Too bad that mon is ass

[cyan smelt]

Yeah skill swap wyrdeer was a niche thing in sv too

[loud bramble]

Out speed and killed by half of the meta

[sudden remnant]

sucks the mon i want to use isnt in the game

[loud bramble]

Same

[cyan smelt]

Mawile?

[sudden remnant]

that too

[loud bramble]

I wanted mawile too

[sudden remnant]

mienshao mawile and archeops

[cyan smelt]

Mawile would be so good in tr

[loud bramble]

I hunted for a shiny alpha mawile in za

Just for champions

[sudden remnant]

mawile was good outside tr back when we had megas before

[cyan smelt]

Yeah but mega zard y

[sudden remnant]

zard y was always around

didnt stop mawile before wont stop it now

should mention mawile learns rock slide

and the elemental fangs and punches

[cyan smelt]

Lowkey thinking of putting rock slide on mega kang

[sudden remnant]

and even gets poison fang which could be cool

TPCI PLEASE GIVE ME MAWILE MIENSHAO AND ARCHEOPS

[cyan smelt]

Why archeops

[sudden remnant]

remember me asking what mons get entrainment?

[cyan smelt]

You want to entrain scrappy onto it?

[sudden remnant]

not necessarily

scrappy is for a seperate idea entirely

[cyan smelt]

Skill swap huge power onto archeops lol

[loud bramble]

Meg mawile oneshots no bulk legions with sucker punch

[sudden remnant]

i was hoping to entraiment Defiant

[cyan smelt]

Idt there's anything with entrainment and defiant

[sudden remnant]

there is not

[sudden remnant]

could skill swap meowscarada protean

that could be cool

[loud bramble]

Skill swap defiant would heavily rely on the opponent to switch multiple time their intimidate mon in anyways

[cyan smelt]

I still want to try toxic spikes + roar + kleavor

[loud bramble]

Man those glimmora pex mega venu teams are so unfun to verse

[cyan smelt]

I was thinking sneasler farig kleavor

[sudden remnant]

what in the Singles?

[loud bramble]

No doubles

It can work

[sudden remnant]

why are they using singles stall strats in doubles

[loud bramble]

They just wanna see the world burn ig

[sudden remnant]

i wish aurorus didnt have 2 common types as 4x weaknesses

[loud bramble]

It falls apart if you can just double glimmora and have a steel type in the back or something to cleanse spikes

[sudden remnant]

chat do i try the mega chimecho sylveon copycat boomburst shenanigans

chat what physical mega should i swap umbreon for

umbreon has been so good for me but theres a lot of matches i just cant afford to bring it 🫠

[loud bramble]

Depends on what you feel your team struggles into

[sudden remnant]

um

sand and mega floette

[loud bramble]

What are you entraining with araquanid?

[sudden remnant]

giving meow a fire resist after changing its type with protean, giving mega manectric a fire resist, and taking defiant away from enemy kingambits etc

[loud bramble]

I think you could use mega skarmory

[sudden remnant]

😀

[loud bramble]

Its not the best into sand

But good for floette

[sudden remnant]

i mean i can fight sand its just so hard

sun is incredibly easy, rain is just laughable

sand is so difficult for me though

[cyan smelt]

Sand is about the only thing I can deal with

[loud bramble]

Can also tailwind in regular form with sturdy

[sudden remnant]

i kinda wanna try weak armor skarm with beat up whim

its stupid but its funny

[loud bramble]

But youd probably want a sinitcha to heal brave bird recoil

Or some other support mon

[sudden remnant]

i dont even have a skarmory rn

aghhhh i gotta grab one

but like meow has brick break for aurora veil snow teams and sand teams

and its working really well actually

its just i had to swap out a slot for that yk?

meow does not have a dark move at all

[cyan smelt]

Brick break meow is scary

[sudden remnant]

it ohkos mega ttar

[sudden remnant]

and these stats are absolutely absurd btw

100 hp 150 defense

yk another mon i wish was in champions? i want fucking Roserade

[cyan smelt]

It is

[sudden remnant]

i have not seen it

anywhere 🫠

[cyan smelt]

It's on the roster

[sudden remnant]

im still salty mienshao and mawile arent in the game

like nintendo what did mianshao do to you

and you put the top support mega in history in the game BUT NOT FUCKING MAWILE???

[cyan smelt]

Ykw why

[sudden remnant]

it does get drill run

so thats something to deal with sand at least

[sudden remnant]

hm?

[cyan smelt]

Because of mega floette, that's why mawile and metagross aren't in

[sudden remnant]

they would both absolutely fucking cook floette

[cyan smelt]

I hope mega mence is added soon, it'd cook sneasler

[sudden remnant]

i think florges should also get a mega honestly

make it like fairy ghost and make the petals that drip from its flower like cursed souls trapped in the petals

[cyan smelt]

Maybe I should hop on the gc and play some more games even if my team sucks

[sudden remnant]

and since its a bulky pokemon naturally genuinely just give it like cursed body as its mega ability since it could actually use the ability

[loud bramble]

You could go bullet seed round scarf roserade and run it with sylveon. Scarf jolly rade outspeeds basculegion with 90% ko chance on 3 hits

[sudden remnant]

😀

how ghe fuck do i ev this skarmory like

[sudden remnant]

what do i do with this

[loud bramble]

I just went max speed attack going brave bird, iron head, rock tomb and tail wind.

Didnt really have time to perfect ivs

[sudden remnant]

im gonna not run brave bird im gonna go with drill peck

[loud bramble]

I think just try it a bit and see where it struggles

[sudden remnant]

iron head drill peck drill run protect/tailwind

[loud bramble]

I used to run max hp and spa komo-o before making adjustments and eving him to outspeed scarf legion after a clanging scales

Best way to see what needs changing is just to play games

[sudden remnant]

im gonna run tailwind on mega skarm

and then whim is gonna be infiltrator with beat up

means farig cant stop my taunts and encores and also lets me mess with substitute mega gengar

[loud bramble]

Think you can drop tailwind if you wanna use weak armor to outspeed things

[sudden remnant]

weak armor specifically lowers physical defense right

[loud bramble]

Yes

[sudden remnant]

cool

you right though maybe i run a dark move instead of tailwind

it does get rockslide that could be nice too

since ill be fast as hell with beat up weak armor

sure why not leta go with rock slide

[loud bramble]

You can go dual wing beat over drill peck to kill sash sneasler

[sudden remnant]

and i gotta remember to make whimsicott timid

[sudden remnant]

trueeeeeee

[loud bramble]

None runs sash on sneasler but still

[sudden remnant]

but just in case

i will in fact that is a valid argument

i just dont wanna swap anyone else to cover brave bird recoil

[shadow wind]

That does not bode well for me

I’m a big sand fan

[loud bramble]

Brave bird kinda strong af tho, it oneshots no bulk chomps at least from what i remember while playing it

[sudden remnant]

speak of the devil. hello mr groudon. i hear you were trying watchog for a bit

[sudden remnant]

i have other answers to garchomp

[shadow wind]

Trying is a bit of an over exaggeration

I just had 5 mon and couldn’t think of a 6th

But you need 6 to play on the ladder

[sudden remnant]

surely it did something right?

someone made day 2 at a tournament with it the other day so it can certainly do stuff

[shadow wind]

Nah he literally never came in the 5 games I had him

The 5 were strong enough and I just needed to see what I needed more

[strange fjord]

Yo, I was overhauling MunchTeams to show actual teams and such. And someone out here got a 80-1 (Bo1 CTS) with this team:

[shadow wind]

Holy moly

[sudden remnant]

Banette the goat

[shadow wind]

Wait how did they go 80-1 and only hit 1554?

[strange fjord]

Also goddamnit replays are not loading correctly. I thought I fixed this to play replay locally.

it seems they used various alt accounts

[shadow wind]

I’m confused

[strange fjord]

Since the usernames are slight variations

[shadow wind]

Hmm

I might’ve lost to them at some point

Please don’t search for my name in the wins 🙏🙏🙏

I swear if it shows up I was uh testing?

[strange fjord]

trust, you were testing

[shadow wind]

I’m always testing unless I’m not

Yknow

A man who is always testing will never leave the lab

[sudden remnant]

i just absolutely crushed this guy with manectric sneasler araquanid meow

they had floette kngambit sneasler and i never got to see the 4th they just quit

[shadow wind]

You can take the man out of the lab but you can’t take the lab out the man 🔬🔬

[sudden remnant]

i should invest in a captcha card

[shadow wind]

Captcha card 🔥🔥🔥

[strange fjord]

finally, I fixed the replay issue on MunchTeams. Go check it out and find teams people are using. That guy is using mega bannette on bo1 and winning somehow. There's also another bo1 guy using pinsir with a 80-5 record

[sudden remnant]

chat what does mr rime want to do

sheer cold got it

[shadow wind]

Clean yo screen

[cyan smelt]

Ok i'm going to hop on gc and lose a lot of games 🔥

[shadow wind]

Gotta have a better mental dude

[cyan smelt]

Ok, I'm going to hop on gc, see how I do and take notes on what I struggle with

I need to get into the habit of notetaking during games

[sudden remnant]

damn

[cyan smelt]

Uh oh ur infiltrator

[sudden remnant]

yeah 😭

[cyan smelt]

Rip ur manectric

[sudden remnant]

manectric survived to the endgame

i still lost

but manectric was the last alive

the rime didnt get to sheer cold me cuz i have protect

i need something faster than mega hawlucha that learns encore taunt and beat up

well doesnt really need to be beat up

id actually ideally want it to be bullet seed

[cyan smelt]

idk if that exists, maus is only 111

well delphox is 134 and has encore

lopunny is 135

[sudden remnant]

do either of them learn taunt and beat up/bullet seed

how do i filter on showdown

[cyan smelt]

nope they only learn encore

go into builder and type a move into the pokemon box

[sudden remnant]

salazzle is 117

learns taunt encore and beat up

[cyan smelt]

1 point slower than hawlucha

[sudden remnant]

do hawlucha run max speed

[cyan smelt]

i have an idea, how about chlorophyll whims with mega zard y

[sudden remnant]

that would require changing my entire team

and i like what i have

[cyan smelt]

why not just use mega delphox to ohko hawlucha with psychic

[sudden remnant]

id have 2 special megas

i could do it for sure but then what do i swap skarmory for

cuz delphox would be replacing whim

[cyan smelt]

hmmm since you want to do beat up skarmory idk

i'm gonna see if there's anything else with beat up that's faster than hawlucha

[sudden remnant]

id absolutely use delphox which matches okay into my biggest issue of floette

but it makes my sand mu even worse

[sudden remnant]

no

im looking rn salazzle is the fastest at 117

mega houndoom is 115 whim is 116 maushold is 111

everything else is below 100

[cyan smelt]

weavile is 125 and threatens mega hawlucha with triple axel

[sudden remnant]

WAIT WEAVILE

[cyan smelt]

same brain cell lmao

[sudden remnant]

still wouldnt help my sand mu though

does delphox get aura sphere

[cyan smelt]

no

[sudden remnant]

honestly id even take focus miss 😭

[cyan smelt]

it does have focus miss

[sudden remnant]

i have pretty good luck landing focus misses

118+20+32=170 so is need my delphox to be 171 speed

cuz 0 investment max iv is youe base stat +20 at level 50 right?

[cyan smelt]

• nature

[sudden remnant]

i sincerely doubt hawlucha runs jolly

[cyan smelt]

what nature would it even run

[sudden remnant]

adamant? or maybe like +def - spa or +spd -spa?

[cyan smelt]

any mega hawlucha users in here lmao

[sudden remnant]

i dont think they run jolly but id have no way to know

[cyan smelt]

delphox handily outspeeds

[sudden remnant]

except to try 170 mega delphox and find out the hard way

[sudden remnant]

so gains 30 points

so i just need to be at 141

that gives me 15 points to work with do i just throw them in hp?

and delphox dont run protect right they usually opt for encore?

wait i can run grass knot for sand teams

[cyan smelt]

substitute i think i've seen

[sudden remnant]

i dont need focus miss i can use grass knot

and maybe scorching sands?

heat wave grass knot psychic scorching sands

and then what do i do with whimsicott

decisions decisions

i could use tsareena

means kingambit cant sucker punch my delphox

sure why not

[cyan smelt]

why not farig

[sudden remnant]

tsareena is grass which helps with my sand issue

farig cant do anything to ttar excadrill

also trop kick lowers attack by 1 stage 100% of the time

which is good

[cyan smelt]

u got low kick for gambits and ttars and excas

[sudden remnant]

i can run low kick on tsareena

and frees meow to run a dark move over triple axel

cuz tsareena also gets it

[cyan smelt]

just watch out for scarf mold breaker exca

[sudden remnant]

what would scarf mold breaker excadrill use that effects tsareena

[cyan smelt]

no, it destroys delphox

[sudden remnant]

could scarf the tsareena maybe

knock off triple axel low kick trop kick

which also means my bulky sneasler set can run sitrus berry

WHO IS THE MEGA LMAO

[cyan smelt]

not absol because it sucks

not garchomp because it sucks

[sudden remnant]

zard i guess its sash skarmory

swords dance absol

lmao

yep its mega zard

[cyan smelt]

why do people use absol, what does it even do

[sudden remnant]

thank god i brought araquanid

BYE ZARD LMAO

MY MANECTRIC IS BETTER THAN YOUR FAKE DRAGON

not only did i win i didnt have a single death

they got crushed

manectric araquanid is such a crazy lead

[cyan smelt]

is it because it wide guards and tbolts

[sudden remnant]

yeah

and the volt switch loquidation

what the fuck do i do against this

[cyan smelt]

pray

[sudden remnant]

for sure a mega delphox match but jesus 😭

ARAQUANID I LOVE YOU

[cyan smelt]

did it wide guard again

[sudden remnant]

yes

into a typhlosion-H eruption

[cyan smelt]

sun users are brainless

[sudden remnant]

its not even sun

its mega garde

why do they have water tauros if typhlosion-h has the choice scarf

i lead good again and it just won me the game

araquanid meowscarada with tsareena and delphox in the back

what am i looking at rn

[cyan smelt]

dual weather probably

aurora veil and then sun with zard y

[sudden remnant]

lets try these 4

hopefully i didnt lead terribly

i did not

thank god

tsareena please dont miss this triple axel

THEYRE AN IDIOT LMAOOOOOO

they faked out with their meowstic while my tsareena was on the field

[cyan smelt]

Reminds me of yesterday when their sinistcha strength sapped into my gambit

[sudden remnant]

💀

[shadow wind]

I love when people rage powder against my meganium

[sudden remnant]

i love when they rage powder into my meow lmao

the guy i fought just forfeit

[shadow wind]

Yo decay happened 🙏🙏🙏

Praise be, now my ranking gets inflated

[sudden remnant]

they lead chomp meowstic and the chomp never got to move cuz i landed all 3 hits of triple axel

[shadow wind]

Used to pray for times like this

[sudden remnant]

scarf tsareena was in fact the play i guess

OH GOD WHAT IS THIS TEAM 😭

is this mega garde sand? 💀

[cyan smelt]

Are you playing gc or ladder

[sudden remnant]

ladder

theres a gc rn?

[cyan smelt]

Yes

[sudden remnant]

i didn’t even know or i would have participated

[shadow wind]

Still can

[cyan smelt]

You can still participate

[sudden remnant]

why did they even lead their tsareena into my team

what kind if lead is corviknight tsareena

like. thanks for free delphox food i guess

scarf arcanine lmao

get knocked off fool

and they quit

guys im fucking cooking with this team

[cyan smelt]

Woah mega delphox is good

[sudden remnant]

ive ranked up twice just with this team

and have yet to lose since adding delphox and tsareena

is this just meta slavery?

is that what this is?

[cyan smelt]

How fast is scarf tsareena compared to aero

[sudden remnant]

WHY ARE PEOPLE CLICKING FAKE OUT INTO MY TSAREENA

YOU IDIOTS

[shadow wind]

Replace Dnite with Zard and Sylv with Floette and yeah

[sudden remnant]

mystical fire sylveon is certainly a choice of all time

[shadow wind]

Although they’re also missing chomp so who knows

I hate fighting against chomp aero Zard y

Feels like I’m just playing the game of lead right or lose turn 1

[sudden remnant]

they just insta lost

they lead sneasler sylveon against my tsareena mega delphox

and they forfeit

now THATS meta slavery

[shadow wind]

Yeah pretty much

[sudden remnant]

its fine i got this

i wish they would give me the sun

my mega delphox would absolutely love it

[shadow wind]

What’s your Delphox moveset?

[sudden remnant]

heat wave grass knot scorching sands and psychic

[shadow wind]

😧

[sudden remnant]

what

if you cant tell i really hate sand

[cyan smelt]

No protect and no substitute

[sudden remnant]

has not mattered

i have scarf tsareena to protect delphox

[cyan smelt]

Maybe in master ball the teams will be less random than gc and will be a better test of my team

[sudden remnant]

why did thwy just earthquake

what the fuck is happening bro

i have a tsareena mega delphox on field

[cyan smelt]

It doesn't help that I don't have anything faster than mega delphox

[sudden remnant]

and they double swap

lmao

and then they mega their zard with my delphox on the field

these people suck dogwater bro

[cyan smelt]

What rank is this

[sudden remnant]

ultra 2

[cyan smelt]

I swear that ultra 1 and 2 was easier than anything below it

[sudden remnant]

unburden bulky sitrus sneasler for the W lmao

and i win again

garchomp vs tsareena araquanid

yeah i win here

6 win streak and im now ultra 1

im so close to master ball

erm what 😭

[cyan smelt]

I had a 6 win streak to get me to master ball, idk whether that means the team is ok or other people are bad

[sudden remnant]

is this mega floette mega delphox or mega aero

mega chomp isnt even worth mentioning

[cyan smelt]

Not mega aero

Sash aero, either floette or delphox

[sudden remnant]

they lead chomp incin so i still dont know

its mega floette

luckily i brought sneasler

they double protect on floette

oh dear ive now lost

maybe

yeah i lost

if they hadnt gotten the double protect id have instantly won

oh well it happens

[cyan smelt]

Maybe i should ladder more in mb to see what I struggle with

[cerulean nacelle]

Can be a mix. What's ur team rn

[cyan smelt]

Gliscor, gambit, sneasler, skeledirge, a9, mega kang

Seem to struggle with sneasler and chomp and friends the most

[cerulean nacelle]

Yeahhhh I noticed that in my testing, dirge didn't really block the physical attackers other than sneasler very well unless you invested heavily in its physical bulk. And even then, it was still at risk of eating a last respects from basc

[cyan smelt]

Even with tw it's slow

And sneaslers might have throat chop for some reason

[sudden remnant]

1 win away from master ball i go against another hawlucha lets see if its jolly

why do they have a beedril lmao

mega beedril lmao

[cyan smelt]

Why not

[sudden remnant]

willowisp incin and stamina arch

i did not deserve to win that one

[shadow wind]

Man there’s not one person above me with a lower GXE than me

I really cooked it huh

[sudden remnant]

ive gotten 1 game away from master ball 4 times now and then i lose 2 games in a row

[shadow wind]

Many such cases

[sudden remnant]

please people just let me reach master ball 😭

[sudden remnant]

why is it the opponent always succeeds the double protects but i always fail them when i need them

IM ULTRA BALL 1 PLEASE JUST LET ME REACH MASTER BALL 😭

[cerulean nacelle]

Because the game swings in roundabouts. I never get a double protect but I can't tell you the amount of times I've gotten a clutch double freeze or double burn.

I haven't done a ranked match in champions in a while. Got a bit sick of running into zard or mega floette lol

[sudden remnant]

thats like all youre gonna run into

[cerulean nacelle]

Exactly. Eventually you're gonna get burnt out.

I already reached master rank so I'm not too fussed tbh.

[sudden remnant]

i got 1 game away from master ball yet again…. and then lost again

and again im one away from winning

PLEASE 😭

welp looks like i gotta give up on manectric for a bit

OH MY FUCKING GOD

WHY

EVERY FUCKING TIME I GET CLOSE TO MASTER BALL I LOSE 2 GAMES AND THEN I HAVE TO START ALL OVER

[chrome knot]

you want it too badly

[sudden remnant]

ykw you right i dont even want this shit for real honestly its just a title and shi 😒

[spark siren]

Best held item for Heliolisk?

[sudden remnant]

im gonna lose to scarf archaludon

😭

[cerulean nacelle]

For doubles? It's frail, I'd probably say sash.

[spark siren]

Yeah

[cerulean nacelle]

NOT THR SCARCH!

[sudden remnant]

scarf archaludon

dark pulse flinches my delphox peli hurricane confuses my tsareena

peli hurricane then proceeds to confuse my meow and my meow hits herself in confusion

aight bro fuck you TPCI

fuck you

[shadow wind]

Dude has a funny stat distribution

And crazy weather based abilities

[sudden remnant]

sand veil should have the additional effect of making the mon immune to sand

[shadow wind]

Agreed

Sand rush does it

Why not sand veil

[shadow wind]

Jokes

It does give an immunity

Guess you learn something new every day

[sudden remnant]

and it benefits 2 pokemon lmao

wugtrio and heliolisk

[shadow wind]

Wugtrio got buffed in champions

[sudden remnant]

wtf is this team

[shadow wind]

Cacturne as well

[sudden remnant]

cacturne has done unspeakable evils we dont speak of cacturne

[shadow wind]

ONLY MONS WITH 2 TYPES ALLOWED

[sudden remnant]

good thing i have a mega gardevoir

and an araquanid

[shadow wind]

Holy moly

I just realized I don’t have access to my usual showdown background

[sudden remnant]

they just tried to double fake out with infernape incin and i lead tsareena

[shadow wind]

This might be the worst news I’ve received all year

[sudden remnant]

😐

[shadow wind]

Many such cases

You’re just informing the masses

[sudden remnant]

do they not know what serene grace is????

[shadow wind]

Serene grace 🥀🥀🥀🥀

[sudden remnant]

queenly majesty

same thing fr

they do sound like theyd be the same

[shadow wind]

Lowkey

I think I’m done on the ladder for tonight

I love playing the team but the games are so incredibly hard right now

[sudden remnant]

psychic primarina

interesting

[shadow wind]

I fought a psychic mega gengar once

I lost turn 1 🔥🔥🔥

[sudden remnant]

what 💀

[cerulean nacelle]

I just ran into a white herb archaludon

[sudden remnant]

its fine i have thunderbolt mega gardevoir

[cerulean nacelle]

Colour me surprised.

[shadow wind]

White herb Archaludon???

[sudden remnant]

i ran into one too

[shadow wind]

Wrong herb 🥀🥀🥀

[sudden remnant]

i cooked it of course but still

[cerulean nacelle]

Yeah this was on the same team as T wave dragapult and heat wave mega delphox.

[shadow wind]

I mean heat wave mega Delphox is real

And Dragapult has been used as a support Mon in the past

I’m starting to see more espathras on the ladder and I’m not happy about it

[cerulean nacelle]

My lead of bulky froslass + aerodactyl made them have to play really defensively. I got the tailwind off and then proceeded to just output damage with rock slide and use aurora veil on froslass which put way too much pressure on them.

[cerulean nacelle]

Oh yeah I'm not saying it's not. However this is the first support dragapult I've seen on ranked.

[cerulean nacelle]

Gravity + hypnosis?

[sudden remnant]

calm mind baton pass with speed boost?

[cerulean nacelle]

Ohhh are you on about singles?

[sudden remnant]

ive seen it in doubles

[cerulean nacelle]

Damn, people really be getting greedy. Anything for a stat boost ig.

[sudden remnant]

calm mind protect baton pass with sash

[shadow wind]

Yeah it’s the baton pass stuff

Cause they essentially have quiver dance

And then they baton pass into like Floette or something

[sudden remnant]

🥀

how does archaludon live that

what the fuck

[shadow wind]

Or they baton pass into Archaludon and my life flashes before my eyes

[sudden remnant]

truw

its okay i ran into a scarf archaludon with dark pulse a little bit ago

it flinched my delphox of course cuz naturally it did

and i naturally instantly lost

[shadow wind]

Freaky

[sudden remnant]

crits ignore my own attack drops eight

[shadow wind]

Yes

[sudden remnant]

cool

[shadow wind]

And the targets defense or spdef raises

And screens

[sudden remnant]

scarf knock off is just not it bro

bye araquanid 😔

i think i lose

my tsareena is locked into knock off into incin peli with a basc in the back

and guess what i was 1 away from master ball yet again

[cerulean nacelle]

I'm tryna think how I wanna utilise mega manectric

Part of me wants to use it alongside a support sableye.

[shadow wind]

I had a mega Manectric team

https://pokepast.es/63b3be38f062e329

[cerulean nacelle]

Against sun, the sableye can fake out the venusaur and let mega manectric OHKO with flamethrower.

Against anything else, it can set up rain dance to let mega manectric fire off full power thunders.

[cerulean nacelle]

This is fair. I do like volt switch as an option but I also like the coverage of flamethrower for grasses because snarls damage can be underwhelming.

[shadow wind]

For sure

That team was really experimental and I didn’t fix it up at all so it’s still a rough idea

[keen quiver]

Clawitzer 1 tapping mega gengar.
anyway

[chrome knot]

#ok

[sudden remnant]

i just lost to espeon psyspam and clorophyll whimsicott

🫩

[sudden remnant]

120 bp ok

aight i just lost my 4th game in a row i think thats enough for today

[keen quiver]

note to myself
always give mystic water to clawitzer to 1 tap charizard Ys

holy shit
last respect adaptability is busted as shit

[sudden remnant]

https://tenor.com/view/fork-found-in-kitchen-fork-found-in-kitchen-edit-gif-14425799655335924125

[keen quiver]

okay
buff ice hammer accuracy 💀

yea buff it at this point.
Miss 3 in a row

this game is so unreal

[sudden remnant]

welcome to pokemon

[near crag]

Been running this team, any ideas on how to improve the korai lunala mu? https://pokepast.es/f6b26f37005b1bb8 I've also experienced with switching lando to pelipper, but it's still not perfectly accurate

[keen quiver]

pressing rock slide on an inner focus mon.

How people be thinking when facing Inner focus

[sudden remnant]

rock slide is still a damaging move bro

its not always about the flinch

[keen quiver]

until you face a mon that tank its and fucks you over

[sudden remnant]

which happens all the time

thats how pokemon works

[keen quiver]

also alot of rock slide users use kings rock
So yea it was mostly all about the flinch

[sudden remnant]

kings rock is in the game?

[keen quiver]

yes

[sudden remnant]

damn i should do fling weavile strats

[keen quiver]

you a bitch for that 😭

[sudden remnant]

fake out turn 1 fling turn 2

[sudden remnant]

i mean my friends never play pokemon with me so i got nothing to worry about

(thats a lie jack or paul would 100% battle me if i asked)

[keen quiver]

would be funny asf if they did switch in nerfs where pokemons take additional damage when switching pokemons during that turn

[sudden remnant]

??

[keen quiver]

im joking
i know they wouldnt do that lol

why are they people STILL trying to do the perish song strat

[winter fox]

Literally no way it should miss if it's like Hammer Arm

[timber falcon]

No no they’re right

Buff hammer arm while ur at it, ive missed too many times

[spark siren]

Can a timid Heliolisk with full speed investment outspeed zard y and basculegion without choice scarf?

[bold geode]

Just asking

Has anyone in here been dumb enough to try to make Mega Meowstic work yet or

[dense latch]

if it's worth anything i think moxieboosted made a video on meowstic

[keen quiver]

it needs buffing

[keen quiver]

time a perfect Trace

[timber falcon]

https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9championsvgc2026regma-2600675537-yb3c633x8glm7arp0f4ilusmb0pqr9gpw tried this team with a new mindset. I think im finally figuring out how certain MUs work and what role each mon fits

[winter fox]

100 power and the boost from Iron Fist is more than enough

[keen quiver]

accuracy Buff

[bold geode]

Yeah he was more blatant about it sucking than he was with Mega Chimecho which is concerning lmao

Hell I think Beedrill might be better than it

[dense latch]

it just sucks that it's objectively worse than mega alakazam which is not a good mega to begin with lmao

with the correct evs alakazam just has better stats

[bold geode]

Does spread e force save it

My thing is
It might be the worst mega rn
But when it gets spread e force

It won't be anymore not cuz of spread e force but cuz by that point we'll have Malamar

[loud bramble]

Unironically just go gravity delphox for spread e force

[dense latch]

alakzam also gets it

[loud bramble]

With a farigiraf/tsarena in the back to block suckerpunch. You just end up having a way better time vs whats meta

[bold geode]

Too much setup

[dense latch]

this is just really sad

why did they think giving another pure psychic type mega trace was a good idea

[timber falcon]

Just a worse alakazam?

[bold geode]

Let's just accept the fact that Delphox isn't gonna be an E Force spammer and that's ok

[winter fox]

It's 90 the same as Hammer Arm it's fine

[timber falcon]

Should be at least 100% accuracy tho

Lowers speed

[bold geode]

For TR which you use it for, that's a good thing

[timber falcon]

It’s not a good thing when I miss ttar twice in one game

[bold geode]

Well shit happens

Something you gotta accept when running inaccurate moves

[timber falcon]

😔

[winter fox]

Me missing Rock Slide twice on Zard-Y

[river tangle]

Anyone got recommendations for a team built around Mega Froslass and Mega Delphox?

[timber falcon]

Why those 2?

It’s not like either are secondary Megas I don’t think

[river tangle]

I like going hyper offense

Though if I’m switching one out, it’ll be delphox

[mighty stump]

There is nothing I like playing this meta

I’m bored of my Rain team too

[timber falcon]

Why not go off meta

By the rate the meta is going I wouldn’t be surprised of there’s a lot of hidden synergy people have yet to capitalise on

[mighty stump]

Do you even remember who you’re talking to

[timber falcon]

I’ll be honest I kinda forgot what everyone here does for teams

Ik you like bulky sets iicr

[stuck perch]

Im that guy let's gooo

[chrome knot]

?

[timber falcon]

were you ever losing this

[stuck perch]

Lol it was close but no since I had my Archuladon killer

I didn't know Meganium outspeeds Milotic wtf 😮

[chrome knot]

milotic is mostly 32hp 32def and is a singular base spe stat higher than meganium

[stuck perch]

Well my Meganium had outsped his Milotic for some reason I have 0 points in speed btw

[chrome knot]

no idea then

[stuck perch]

Wrong Meganium

[chrome knot]

both of these outspeed 0 investment milotic bruh

[stuck perch]

Damn lmao well that's good to know

[rustic mountain]

0 points in speed
proceeds to show pictures w/ neither 0 points in speed

[stuck perch]

Yeah I said mines have 0 invested in speed before I posted them

[rustic mountain]

hahaa ik that was the point

[stuck perch]

https://tenor.com/view/so-we-do-a-little-trolling-we-do-a-little-trolling-trolling-troll-trollface-gif-20296362

Wow I literally just lost becuz Dragonite outspeeds my Rotom wtf

[timber falcon]

https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9championsvgc2026regma-2600836221 nothing but psychic and double edge

[stuck perch]

Bro Dragonite shud not outspeed my 151 Speed Rotom bruh

[timber falcon]

mega?

[solid frigate]

Mega Dnite easily can Outspeed with Timid nature

And if you run Modest you usually see mega Dnite hit 152 in Max speed

[stuck perch]

How? The math ain't mathing on this Dragonite 💀. I tried to understand how it outsped my Rotom I guess by 1 point like you said

[bold geode]

It gets faster when it mega evolves

[stuck perch]

Ahhhh hell nah 🫩🫩

[bold geode]

Idek how much

[timber falcon]

speed points go up by 20, so from 132 max to 152

[bold geode]

Yeah it gets like a whole 20 points faster

So that CAN outspeed Rotom

@chrome knot turns you into marketable plushie

[stuck perch]

I thought I had a chance after Scizor cudnt move

[stuck perch]

I gotta slow Dragonite down off rip if I'm not able to get trick room up. I might just have to sub in Pelipper tailwind

Or use Whimsicott again

[keen quiver]

okay damn i got baited by a mega charizard X in doubles
Switched out to cloud nine drampa 😭

[winter fox]

I try to set up Trick Room ➡️ I get Faked Out ➡️ They target my Trick Room Sweeper ➡️ They outspeed me in Trick Room 🔁

[keen quiver]

Do you not have a ghost type or armor tail farigiraf?

[winter fox]

Galarian Slowking. I'm using Mega Crab rn.

[keen quiver]

ghost types are better for setting up trick room
or armor tail farigiraf if they're trying to priority

[winter fox]

That stupid fucking bridge that I hate always outspeeds Crab and I die before I can get a move off.

[stuck perch]

Me? I got Spiritomb I use and Froslass

[winter fox]

Any changes y'all would make?

[molten oasis]

https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9championsvgc2026regma-2600860209-gs8c5iewfoh9ohdt7ahfd1f45mulcv7pw I missed heat wave 4 times

[timber falcon]

Atp I just assume any charizard without Venasaur or with sinistcha is zard X

Once swapped in torkoal to tank a hit only to be obliterated by sun boosted flare blitz

Especially in ots it’s smth to watch out for

[timber falcon]

this was painful to watch

[molten oasis]

It was painful to fight

[timber falcon]

whats ur speed control btw

icy wind im assuming?

[molten oasis]

Icy wind yea

Meow’s scarfed and phox outspeeds like, pretty much everything

[timber falcon]

even aero?

[timber falcon]

[molten oasis]

Yep

ive had a few recently be game deciding

[molten oasis]

The times it missed I was just like

https://tenor.com/view/dobby-gif-22195730

I knew the game wasn’t over by a long shot but like

His redirects were at so little hp for that whole fckn game

[dense latch]

holy shit lmao

[rustic mountain]

still on delphox i see

[molten oasis]

Yuh

I tried Gengar and Megan’s

Megan’s lmao, Meganium

[rustic mountain]

seems like a rough speed tier

but in certain spots, man it can put in work

[molten oasis]

They weren’t fun, Gengar doesn’t click with me and Meganium, while I think it’s good isn’t for me

[dense latch]

https://x.com/FedeCampoVGC/status/2050977822127034604?s=20 average reg m-a experience

Federico Camporesi (@FedeCampoVGC)

Top 8 in Victory Road may challenge, out because of 4 rock slide flinches out of 5 targets and a Poltergeist miss, unfortunately Reg M-A is the most luck based metagame since I started playing VGC and there is not a lot to do about it.

Will train more to not tilt the next times.

X · May 3, 2026, 4:36 PM

[molten oasis]

The fast speed tier mons are more my style

[molten oasis]

Me after that game

[dense latch]

can't relate im too busy getting parahaxed in reg i :))))

[rustic mountain]

i saw this earlier lmao

[molten oasis]

The hax of this format are miserable

Rock slide is everywhere

[rustic mountain]

yea

it can be very unfun

[dense latch]

when i go back im def using wide guard on my team

[rustic mountain]

i just try and figure out ways to minimize it as best i can (still gna happen)

otherwise just gna be infuriated by the 800th rock slide flinch that puts me in a tough spot

[dense latch]

i tried to push for 80% gxe in bo1 reg i and lost at 79.9

im trying to play bo3 but man are queues long

[chrome knot]

when you a loser

[rustic mountain]

what im using atm

more ppl seemingly jumping onto it but its not super widespread

[molten oasis]

I smack aero early so it’s dead that’s my strategy

Cuz I can’t fit wide guard, like I’ve consider aegislash over gambit but gambit does too much for phox

[molten oasis]

Fuckass format

Did the twave flutter set get more popular?

[dense latch]

na

not in any majors i believe or my experience in ladder so far

i only really see flutter next to koraidon

but for some reason i just keep queuing into grimm

[molten oasis]

Grimm Mirai I’m guessing?

[dense latch]

yea

[molten oasis]

That blows

[rustic mountain]

how do u outspeed? delphox and

[molten oasis]

Scarf meow

[rustic mountain]

bruh

[molten oasis]

Hey, it was tofus idea

I’m not even joking, and it’s fucking working

[rustic mountain]

i just remember me mentioning playing vs scarf meow the other week and u were like wtf hahhaa

[molten oasis]

I didn’t see the vision

But also it’s patching my issues into Milo and basc

[rustic mountain]

is good vs basc

[molten oasis]

Phox needs to go to too much shit to really leave it behind for a grass mega

[rustic mountain]

r u not dual mega?

[molten oasis]

And from experience idt gambit has been enough, plus I have a way to nuke mega aero

[molten oasis]

https://pokepast.es/da31848abf92a748

[rustic mountain]

gotcha

[molten oasis]

I feel like those 5 were already strong

The encore disable stuff with a9 and phox has been great too

Wild

I think that mon’s good because it’s a heavy physical metagame

En redes sociales hay muchos "jugadores profesionales" que dicen que para mejorar hay que jugar meta, aprender poco a poco y bla bla bla

FALSO. La mejor forma para convertirte en un gran jugador es jugar equipos anti meta que logren rachas de 57 victorias en Masterball 4.000 ELO

X · May 3, 2026, 5:19 PM

[stuck perch]

Yeah if it hits or I even get a chance to use it

[stuck perch]

I did it 😮‍💨

[fluid fiber]

When does the GC end?

[clever root]

New team concept, gotta find

• a mon who can be annoying in TR
• a speed controller
• idunno

Will probs swap rock slide off skarm

[next stump]

1.5 hours i think

[next dust]

Annoying tr Mon. That's easy. Put any mon next to encore disable sableye and voila annoying tr. Use monkey for maximum effect.

[clever root]

The humble dark type who says nuh uh

[rustic mountain]

def majority good mons

nd then the niche pick

[molten oasis]

Yuh

Tho it would have been Rotom, but I think Rotom kinda sucks so

[rustic mountain]

y

[shadow wind]

Rotom goated 😧

Oh tree I hit 1820 yesterday

Showdown ladder

[molten oasis]

The things I need it to do, it fails at

Basc is rough but I have something for basc, meow is extra

I cannot beat Milo consistently with Rotom

And hydro pump feels bad to use

It’s cosplaying as a bulky mon as well
