Ice Punch > Avalanche

#

Also, what is Dragon Claw for on Tyranitar?

quasi apex
#

I thought it was a good move to have on it

  • Tyranitar won't hit very hard witout STAB moves
  • Garchomp's primary selling point is STAB Earthquake--it synergizes with allies that are immune to it (and thus won't be teamkilled); also idk why it's running Liquidation
  • Lucario probably won't get the chance to SD cuz it'll be OHKO'd or statused
  • Idk how Ceruledge plays
  • I'm pretty sure this team loses to a lead of Sash Weavile + Banded Staraptor

Chomps clear amulet set should just go like this
Tera ground
Ability rough skin
Protect
Swords dance
Earthquake
Dragon claw

^ standard

#

Also if you want to use ttar still run it with sand rush lycanroc it’s a funny core

#

Dual rock slide spam plus fast endeavors is really funny

vestal salmon
#

this team will get absolutely shit on by Dondozo Tatsuguri combo as well

Except for gastrodon if it actually had storm drain

spice zenith
#

lucario has no steel stab - add bullet punch or meteor mash. instead of shadow claw/thunder punch. add protect too.

Ttar - swap moves for rock slide + crunch at least for STAB.

ceruledge item swap to safety goggles so you dont take chip damage from sand or get spored - change nature to Jolly or adamant

gastrodon - swap ability to storm drain which covers water weakness of ttar/cerluedge,

sacred cedar
#

I’d personally swap Lucario for Gallade, sacred sword hits hard without having to SD and he’s got utility with truck room and wide guard, lucario hasn’t really been good since he lost follow me.

#

I'd replace the team in its entirety I don't see any synergy apart from Sand Veil trolling

#

Also how is this thread still alive

gloomy dragon
#

The team is bad sorry man

#

For playing lucario u should have him justified and maushold using the dark attack that hits multiple times to boost its atta

#

Then, and only then if he’s still alive spam bullet punch or extreme speed

#

Gastrodon needs storm drain

#

Like that ability is a m u s t

#

All the pokes are wrong in some way

gloomy dragon
#

I would recomend u to google “vgc 2023 games and learn by watching

#

And for startes google “tyranitar vgc build/ strat” this with all pokes

#

For starting

#

Also use “pokemon showdown” to train pokemon there

#

For the strat u using w tyranitar i would recomend changing garchomp for lycanrock as they have the sand combo

#

But if u want a weather combo i would HIGHLY recomend liligant torkoal

Ttar lycanroc is seeing a rise in usage tho which I recommended earlier
