Team recommendations?

[analog hawk]

Finished up my team, I wanna know if theres any i should swap out or any strats i should go with!

[mossy locust]

Give scizor choice band
And give goldengo choice specs

[distant delta]

@mossy locust you should always give your reasoning to this.

@analog hawk what mode? singles or VGC doubles?

[analog hawk]

Singles rn. I wanna do vgc doubles too though

I honestly might want to replace my goldengo, haven't liked his playstyle much

I rlly just want to learn team synchronization

[distant delta]

Keep Scarf id u keep it. Its better for aingles.

[analog hawk]

On the other hand, im not sure of toadscruel is just a worse amoonguss

[distant delta]

Scizir would do better with the berry that weakens fire type attacks or with a life orb to boost dmg.
Shell Bell is ass. Defo swap that.

With Mycelium might active yeah. Amoonguss is better defensively

[analog hawk]

Im doing life orb for mimikyu. Im gonna do water terra type for scizor to give people the runaround when they send out fire type attackers

[analog hawk]

Good to know. Does he basically do the same stuff?

[distant delta]

You can give Annihilape an Assault vest depending on his set

He get ls really specially bulky

[analog hawk]

Im gonna get a new annihilape cause that ones for raids

So ill keep that in mind

[distant delta]

Its way less offensive. Amoonguss is used in doubles a lot. But its just a sleep bot with Spore ans redirection with Rage Powder.

Both arent that powerdul.in singles.

[analog hawk]

Shiny annihilape is just so ass lol

[analog hawk]

Gliscore js probably a better stalling tank

But he has been working out okay tbh

[distant delta]

Sure. Maybe also think about Hazards

Sticky web would benefit ur team.

[analog hawk]

Whats the best pokemon that uses that?

[distant delta]

They are all low high tier speed. 1 sticky web and they outspeed everything

3 options imo.
Ribombe for fast and frail with sash.

Aranquid for hyper defensive with Liquidation

[analog hawk]

Of course shuckle isnt in sv

[distant delta]

Or Charja Bug with Eviolite

[analog hawk]

Araquanid is defensive?

Also I'm curious, what makes charja bug super good

[distant delta]

Nothing

But its decently bulky and funny

Sticky web setters arent crazy good cause its bugs

[distant delta]

Low attacks. Really hugh defenses

Araquanid (M) @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Water Bubble
Level: 50
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 252 HP / 76 Atk / 116 Def / 60 SpD / 4 Spe
Adamant Nature

• Leech Life
• Liquidation
• Sticky Web

[analog hawk]

Ill probably make this a doubles team then

[distant delta]

Huh. Hazards arent used in Doubles so Id scrap the sticky webs idea

[analog hawk]

I have an idea with scizor too. Using game8 as a template i wanna give him a water tera type and replace u turn with tera blast

[analog hawk]

Oh are they not?

Then ill just do singles

[analog hawk]

This'll bait out fire types

[distant delta]

No. Its too fast paced to be worth it. Games are limited to 7 mins and usually finish faster

[distant delta]

Solid idea tomtry yeah.

But id defo get an AV Annihilape with Drain Punch, Rage Fist

[analog hawk]

I might replace goldengo with araquanid

I know hes good, just doesn't have my favorite playstyle

You've gotta predict with his trick while also being slower.

[distant delta]

U can run a boosting set and make him bulkin to.live any one attack when terad. Then Nasty plot and spam Make it rain with life irb and steel tera to pick up a few KOs
