>>58581938Team Flare Nouveau really is the best battle theme
>>58581944Iron tail
>>58582001too slow. already moved away from it
>>58582007you're 100% right, i've wiffed like, 20 iron tails because this stupid deer trots as fast as 3 mega Pidgeotbest is to iron tail when it starts attacking i've wiffed those too
>Everyone using Gyrados, Garchomp, Skarmory, XerneasI wonder how I should go about countering this
>>58582035I'm trying to cook up some antimeta tactics
alright i'm gonna go get Xerneas.gotta play the meta ffs.i just want balls nigga
>>58582067gl bwo
>>58582035>>58582054>electric>ice>fire/electric>steelGlaceon eats Gyarados and Garchomp for breakfast, Stunfisk annihilates Gyarados and Skarmory. Mega Gengar can one shot Garchomp with icy wind after a nasty plot. Aggron shits on everything if you give it screens or blue buff.fire types can ignore xerneas for the most part, see >>58582001. Camerupt with assault vest can run heatwave for skarm/excadrill, flash cannon for faeries, and earth power for metagross/excadrillalso now that I think about it, stealth rocks might be cool vs xerneas with how fast that fucker moves.
>>58581877looks like it does the same amount
>>58582089Earthquake is a problem though
>>58582090Fucking sick.>>58582094Yep, every team needs a flyer because of how prevalent EQ is.>charizard & talonflameare good vs steel and are immune to EQ but are fucked by rock slide and water.>pidgeotworse talonflame until it mega evolves, but it has reflect>mega clefableimmune to dragon, immune to earthquake, can carry ice moves, fairy moves, fire moves, electric moves>emolgasmall, handsome, cute as a button, a gentleman, can put up light screen to tell Xerneas to fuck off and one-shots Charizard, mega skarmory, gyrados, talonflame, yveltal after one charge with a +tbolt
I am replacing emboar with our favorite gen 1 lizard
>bench reseting for Fennekin>shinies found so far>bagon>swablu>noivern>trubish>2 kanuna>2 weedleWhy'd they make this one so difficult?
>>58582159This was the best choice I made so far. Charizard is awesome, heat wave and hurricane are great!
>>58582285X or Y mega form?
>>58582325Y cause I wanna avoid ground moves.
>>58582054i considered using malamar just to topsy turvy all the xerneas because it would be really funny but i think it just gets bodied anyway
This team ended up being better than what I used last time. Slow starter due to needing to fill the mega gauge to get Mawile up, but Charizard became a good pivot for all the chomps and drills and metagrosses with their earthquakes. Slowking mostly just set up walls and chipped with psychic, sometimes snipping with hydro pump.
>>58582445posted the unedited version…
>>58582089Any good glaceon builds? Do most people go alpha or non alpha?
>>58582456Alpha has a larger freeze-dry hitbox but also has a larger hurtbox cause it’s bigger. It has good bulk though so it doesn’t matter, find an alpha.
>>58581938damn i was doing pretty well with my team until this lobby
>>58582067my fucking god.came back with Xerneas. its a cluster fuck, but I came winning and got balls.
>>58582067>gotta play the meta ffs.no you dont thats gay
Reposting from /shg/, doinf SwSh battle tower, anyone got an easier or more brainless set to clear with than CSR with specs and Lele with scarf? I have 60+ duos to get the ribbon on.
Metagross Heavy Slam eats Glaceons for dinner
there are people in my match garchomp, skarmory, chandelour
Been running Xerneas and Mega Excadrill and having pretty solid success with just those two, but still struggling to find a consistently good 3rd member. Really need something immune to Earthquake because every single fucker in competitive uses it and I always get hard walled by Metagross. I've got Tbolt on Xerneas so Gyarados/Skarmory aren't too much of a problem so I was thinking maybe Charizard or Talonflame, but having two mons weak to water in this meta still seems like a bad idea. Any other solutions?
>Mfw i'm fighting against three (3) xerneas for the 40th time in a row
>>58581944This always happens when Pokémon allows legendaries into a meta. It becomes a line with Legendaries on one end and their specific counters on the other and ruins the game every single time. You can maybe eke out some kills with unexpected mons, but let's be honest, it becomes, "Use the Legendary or its counters or die." I wish they had done just a couple seasons without Legendaries.
Omg Glalie sucks so much, even with max spatk investment, I need the power up or mega to 1-shot garchomps.
She's strong
>>58582463Perfect. Ty anon
>>58582813delphox not needed https://files.catbox.moe/cxftbb.webm
triple kill on garchomp sissies
god gunk shot is so fucking ass basically unusable
someone using diancie online so i think its safe to cheat her in
I was busy during the day, so hopped on like two hours ago in the fuckin' goblin autism hours and it's all just Garchomps and Metagross. What the fuck do I even bring to deal with these pieces of shit that doesn't get one shot by their insanely good type coverage? Also fuck these fucking meta slaves, I just wanna fuck around in a fun battle royale match for some apricorn balls, I don't wanna deal with some fucking pedophile killing time while he hunts for the perfect child.
>>58582930stong phys atacker with fire and ice punch
>>58582914>load into battle >all 3 opponents on xerneas>miss a swords dance gunk shot and instantly die>respawn right next to another Xerneas at half health, miss a gunk shot and instantly die to Geomancy moonblastThis games feels almost unplayable with off-meta pokemon. That or I just suck (probably both).
>>58582935Like what? It's gotta be something that won't die in one shot from a super effective move from either of these fags
>>58582951Like METAgross or Garchomp.
>>58582958But that's fucking boring. I thought flying used to not take damage from ground attacks, but I brought Hawlucha in and he popped like a balloon. Would Charizard also just die in one hit?
>>58582951idk lol i use mega medicham with icepunch is okay against garchomp, braixen is good for metagross heat wave is 120 power and has unlimited range you can 1 hit them a lot of the time delphoot might be a good call
Does anyone have a Mightiest Mark Porygon2 in a luxury ball they'd be willing to part with? I just realized months later that I should've caught 2 so I can have a p2 and a pz both with the mark.I'm offering mythicals from Gen 1-6, magearna, marshadow, and picrelI also have shiny deoxys I personally caught and cloned in emerald
Gee i sure love being matched against 3 chinks that don’t hit eachother and focus me all game. 3 games in a row.
>>58582951Ever since I put Hippowdon on my team, I've never taken it off. Completely fucks Excadrill, can take hits from Garchomp and Metagross (an ice punch from the latter doesn't one-hit-kill). Heavy Slam for Gardevoir/Diancie. I've been using Passcho Berry so that I can bait Waterfall from Gyarados and then kill it with Thunder Fang. It's a nice bulky switch-in.
>>58583016Avalugg feels great too, except it doesn't get thunderfang.
Finally got to A with Talonflame, Banette and Glalie. Going from B-A was pretty miserable. I would recommend not using Glalie, he was only ever a liability.
well, i'm a rank. now what?
>tryhard faggot with Yveltal killing everyone>knock out his shiny Ampharos then his Yveltal>teabag him cause he's a legendary using bitchGot my Delphox stone, that's all I cared about.
>>58583012are you using xerneas?
>>58582813Flutter clears. Booster speed is 10/10
>>58583092If you’re dying to Yveltal, you’re bad
anyone want a faggot shiny alpha scizor in a friend ball with a stupid pokemon website in the name? traded for it and didn't look at the stupid gay nicknameI fucking hate itfirst decent trade offer takes it off my hands
>Mega Blastoise>ExcadrillNeed a good third to round this out, I just keep swapping the third slot around.
>>58583341Dual Screens Explosion Metagross
Does Talonflame benefit from being an alpha or is the regular one better? Bigger Heat Waves seems more enticing.
>>58583432It's a FFA game mode, hitting as many people as possible at once should be your priority, especially if you're using AoEs.
Third doesn't matter you will always lose to 1 specific mon anyway, just have your n1 attacker liek Xerneas and then bait its counter by switching.
>>58583341Xerneas anything else is some weird cope pick you even have two steel resists. AV Dragonite if you have some furious desire to not use legends
>>58583341Whatever you get it should have an electric attack to beat gyarados and skarmory reliably, the meta fag answer would probably be like xerneas, ampharos or gardevoir
>2 blisseys>no one has skill swapwhat are these niggas doing
can someone trade me a trade evo pokemon real quick? (kadabra, haunter etc). I need it for a stupid quest
>>58583663
I have a shiny alpha metagrosswould anyone like to trade a shiny alpha tyranitar or shiny alpha dratini for this?
>>58583258This
>>58583258>>58583911Sounds like something a try hard bitch would say
>>58583258True. So many fairies to pick from and you’re losing it Yvetal?>>58584035>try harding = trying to win???
ngl if your teabagging in a Pokémon game you need mental help
Stunfisk strat doesn’t work anymore. Players gang up on you the moment you send it out. As soon as I stopped playing it they stopped ganging up on me
>>58582483Bro?Your Ice punch?
The deer gets gang banged
Is geomancy actually better than calm mind? Do the boosts last long enough that the cooldown is irrelevant? >>58582001>FlareonI kneel.
>>58584118I geomancy and I spam ranged attacksAnd if I need to do CC, I die and Geomancy again when I respawn
>>58584107What kind kind of idiot sets up geo in front of metagross. That’s being said I use Exa and Delphox as my metagross checks because fuck him.
>>58584107Why didn’t you tera?
>>58582834I used Braixen up until yesterday. Mega Delphox is too cool to not use. Use some mastery seeds on Braixen. Solar Beam+ has no wind up time.
>>58582834>>58584157Redpill me on Braixen. Why is Braixen unironically viable?
>>58584049Motherfucker I like using the team I have, plus did you not read the part where I said I knocked it out?>dying = badThis is the tryhard shit I mentioned. Take the stick out your ass. Do you think I give a shit if I get KO'd when it doesn't really fucking matter that much in the long run?>>58584080Where the fuck do you think we are? Since when is the fucking Pokemon board of all places on 4chan a shining example of mental stability? Give me a fucking break. Fucking delusional.
>>58584186You just said a whole bunch of nothing. You got made at someone “try harding” when it reality they are using the best Pokémon available to them. This isn’t trying harding. It’s literally just trying to win.>Where the fuck do you think we are? Since when is the fucking Pokemon board of all places on 4chan a shining example of mental stability?This is not an excuse to be a mentally retarded asshole. Teabagging in Pokémon? What are we doing?
>>58584183>I'm a retarded sheep, please spoon feed me because my gateway board was /pol/Use it yourself
>>58584183It’s not. Just use delphox.
>>58584183She's not. Only love makes her work.
This Pokèmon shit get serious frfr
>>58584091i added it to madicham after that match kek
Teabag shit in pokemon really nigga?
>>58584209If you cant tell the difference, then you're a fucking bot.>This is not an excuse to be a mentally retarded asshole. Teabagging in Pokémon? What are we doingHoly reddit newfag alert
>>58584233Get dunked on.
>>58584233Funny thing is, most Pokémon players don’t even know what that shit is LMAO
>>58584233>Welcome to online multiplayer little Timmy, tell.me how my sack tastes
>>58584233Funny part is that it’s probably some kid wondering why he’s not running away from an incoming attack
>>58584234However old you are it’s clearly not old enough to post here
Teabagging is so funny. Of all the way to bm or troll someone it’s the one I can’t get angry at, win or lose.
>>58581938OP is cookie cutter meta garbage
>>58584233I remember how butthurt people got when Nintendo made squidbagging harder to do in Splatoon 3. That was great.
>Xerneasfags mad at people teabagging their sweaty ass in a casual pvp mode
>>58584237probably most current gamers i bet you get banned teabagging in games now
>>58582246>3 more bagon>2 more swablu>another noivern>2 more kakuna>2 more weedle>2 more trubish>a pidgey>still no fennekin
>>58584426I wish Braixen had nasty plot.
>>58582246it shouldnt be easy also i can trade you a male if you got some other things for trade

A powerhouse with no moves.
>>58584452I know your painspent the better part of two evenings resetting for froakieended up with a whole team's worth of shiny bellsprout before the pale froggy appeared
Secret tech: a Delphox with life orb one shots every steel and ice with a +heat wave and they cannot dodge it unless they switch. It also does 35% to the deer and the bird and has a chance to one shot the electric rodents
damn hes massive
>>58584118That's my A rank team. You can get to A rank with anyone, did it last night.>no meta>no megas>no legends>Is geomancy actually better than calm mind? Do the boosts last long enough that the cooldown is irrelevant?It's gives you a large cooldown boost and with how fights are and Xerneas mach 7 ground speed, It's not hard to get off, but calm mind is probably more consistent. you could also just run an expert belt and reflect to not get one shot by steel moves
>>58584477Once the dlc comes out Mr. Rime will replace glaceon. You trade a little special attack for a great movepool and psychic typing and better defenses. Boltbeam, freeze dry, nasty plot, ice shard, STAB psyshock and psychic are all crazy
>>58584458Braixen still gets calm mind, which is probably better than nasty plot in this game mode.
>>58584512He'll be a very cool option, but i'll disagree that he'll replace Glaceon.Glaceon's job is to do fat damage and its damage will always be fatter. It also has great bulk compared to mr rime
>>58584512Glaceon for comparison
>>58584512I think Baxcalibur might end up being the go to Ice type, even if it can't use Freeze Dry. And I personally already prefer using Vanilluxe over Glaceon anyways, because I can just click Explosion to Extreme Jihad stuff.
>>58584512and what might go crazy is eviolite Mr. mime (kanto). Evoilite bumps up his def to like, 98 which is pretty good and his special defense fucking 180. hes a fairy so he can come in on dragon attacks and threaten with calm mind icy wind and tbolt.Last fairy move is drain kiss probably. dazzling gleam and drain kiss are both melee where mr mime doesn't want to be and it doesn't learn moon blast.
>>58584546>>58584551It's still better on the special side. I don't think physical defense really matters on ice in this format because you are gonna die to a heavy slam or something similar anyway no matter the investment. You would rather have the special bulk to survive ampharos or a special dragonite attack.Also the extra physical attack means ice shard sucks a lot less.
>>58584573I think bax will be good but it losing to metagross and xerneas and zygarde(assuming he is allowed as a restricted at some point) and any dragon rush user it can't kill immediately will suck pretty hard.
>>58584631Yea it’s built for VGC.
>>58584581I don’t think that works Kanto Mime cant evolve
>>58584726ooo, you might be right actually.
>>58584520I rough tested with Delphox. Calm mind lasts about 12 seconds and Nasty plot lasts 20 seconds.
>>58584773CM also takes little longer to activate compared to NP.
Are small mons the meta?
>>58584785nah you get larger attack hitboxes with larger mons.
>>58584785no, but being small is a nice niche. it's also easier to get around unseen compared to the giants waling around making themselves big targets.mega metagross is a big offender for taking up too much screen space.
Trying to get rid of these shinies. Anyone wanna trade for some bottle caps?
>>58584816Im retarded, here's the pic
>>58584512Well the thing is I hate Mr Rime and all Galarian meme mons so I'll stick to Glaceon or Avalugg
>>58581938Do you need your Pokemon to be Alpha to be competitive in ranked? Do they get the Alpha stat bonuses in ranked?Also why EV hunt Pokemon when you can max their stats with Vitamins? I see threads where people talk about hunting for hours to get the right EVs, why is that? Do rare candies make Pokemon weaker since they don't get EVs as they level? It seems people are using rare candies after level 80 then EV maxing with Vitamins. Is this the method?
>>58584828>Do you need your Pokemon to be Alpha to be competitive in ranked? no>Do they get the Alpha stat bonuses in ranked?they have a bigger size which is bigger attack, and they have HP EVs maxed out along with three perfects, but apart from size any Pokémon can be trained the same way. so tl;dr, no>Also why EV hunt Pokemon when you can max their stats with Vitamins? I see threads where people talk about hunting for hours to get the right EVs, why is that?it's cheaper, and you can EV trainer 5 Pokémon at once. Money is easy to get but if you don't need to get it then hunting out pokemon is easier.>Do rare candies make Pokemon weaker since they don't get EVs as they level? No, you can EV train after max level>It seems people are using rare candies after level 80 then EV maxing with Vitamins. Is this the method?either way works.
>>58584822i'll take the delphox, a hawlucha and the froakie. I've got plenty of silver and some golds.
>>58584844I probably should have specified the party Pokemon aren't for trade. I can hook you up with the Froakie and Hawlucha though. Theyre both Alphas, so do you have s gold bottle csp for each?
>>58584858anon there's a delphox sitting right next to the froakie in the boxi do have a gold bottle for those 2, as well as a 3rd for the delphox in the box if needed
>>58584869Oh wow, I really am retarded. I forgot I had that thing. Its an alpha too, but its male. If you still want it, you ca. Have all 3 for a gold cap each.
>>58584871that's completely fine, i have 3 golds for all 3. just post the code when you're ready
>>58584877Another heads up (because i like to be transparent), i believe the Froakie and Delphox are from facebook giveaways, so i cant promise they're not genned. If you still want em, code is this post #
Postan my shiny shitbox mons up for trade.Both froakies are male.
>>58584822I'll have a ghastly and houndour for a gold cap each if you're still offering
>>58584901No problem. Code is this post #
>>58584890Are you looking for anything in particular
>>58584884oh they're 100% genned. 6 perfect iv's on shiny alpha's. i really don't care though, just want every shiny mega for the dex in this game.
>>58584908cheers for themhave a nice afternoon
>>58584923Yea, figured that. That's why I wanted to be transparent about it. Thanks for the caps tho!>>58584929Same, thanks!
>>58584921Shiny Alpha Charmander, Shiny Alpha Skarm, or Shiny alpha Phantump.That's really it but I'll probably take whatever I don't have. I doubt anything in my box is worth one of the things I mentioned.
>>58584890Would you do a shiny alpha lopunny for a Froakie? What size are they?
>>58584943>Shiny Alpha LopunnyOnly if it's female. Both froakies are M sized. I found a small one but I think I might keep it. I wish i could find size comparisons.
>>58584963Balls?
>>58584970I'm pretty certain none of them have been fixed.
>>58584963I got a female. 25800.
>>58584979
>>58584963Cool thanks.
>>58584980Thanks anon. I hope Froakie does you some good.
>>58584940Damn I wouldn’t feel right trading if you’re not getting what you want. If I find any of these I’ll say something in one of these threads
>>58584997That's very kind of you, anon. If you want a Falinks I'll trade that shit for anything. It's gotta go. I'm serious. Hell I'll take bottle caps, too and not mons.

>>58585013What a Falinks? I'll take it but you sure you don't want something else?
got a load of alpha Goomy and Sliggoo for anyone who wants onesend unwanted shinies, caps, or just fun nicknames
>>58585032I'll trade you a Falinks for a goomy. Name the Goomy Puddin. Use this post number please.
>>58585024If you’re willing I’d take the other Froakie but Falinka works too. Currently hunting in their wild zone and it’s driving me insane
>>58585036I see now why you wanted it gone lol
>>58585048I'll throw you a froakie for a bottle cap, hell yeah. You want me to name it something? >>58585050It's actually mine, I just thought it'd be funny. I had mulled over naming shinies I wanted to evolve online with other anons this so they're more likely to not steal them.
>>58584842Thanks bro this was good info
>>58585054No nickname but I appreciate it. Do you want a shiny in return or it doesn’t matter? Have 2 rows of Shiny Beedrill if so

>>58586316I'm so happy ampharos can be viable
They keep making trades they can't win.
>>58586373Nice.I personally can't stand how slow gunk shot is with how fast Xerneas is
>>58586451I just stalk them and wait before I commit. They're never a threat to you since their only SE move against G-Slowbro/King is Night Slash which nobody is going to take. This guy is genuinely the Xerneas hard counter.
>>58586493what about Scizor or does he die to mystical fire.
>>58586493That Xerneas in the pic literally uses Thunderbolt
>>58586497I'd need to try it. The issue you might run into is that even if you follow up with Bullet Punch, Scizor's lack of REALLY hard hitting STAB (gunk shot is 120 base power) is going to give the opponent an opportunity to switch, and I find Iron Head just whiffs way too easily.>>58586518Yeah? Which doesn't come close to killing me on its own (it even has the attack boost power up aura active) and just gives me a free shot to 1HKO them.
Anyone have a Shiny Alpha Fennekin (or anything in that line) for trade in any Apriball? I have some decent stuff for trade, just let me know what you want.
can anyone help me evolve my scyther through trade and give it back? Legends ZA
>>58586536Post a code, senpai I'll do it. I could use a break from froakie grinding.

Got to A with MDragalge/MGreninja/MAerodactylAerodactyl is so ass, crazy how things live through SE Stone Edge+ and how little Ice Fang+ does to Chomp
Is it always worth it to upgrade to + moves?
>>58586972The difference between the Garchomp meta and the Xerneas meta is that Garchomp has a STAB aoe move that coems out almost instantly that lingers, and an invincibility move, and can mega evolve for a second invincibility move.Xerneas needs 5 seconds of build up, and is a general menace unless one of the 4-5 steel types in the current meta comes out to stomp on its neck.>>58587123As in, making your moves +moves with a seed or upgrading them to +moves in battle?
>>58587140Both, I got a bunch of seeds
>>58587123no reason not to, i got like 132 of these seeds simply by playing the game, any alpha you defeat gives you one pretty surethey can come in handy since + moves can attack pokemon mid protect
Anyone help me with the ZA trade evo research? I need 2 more, any two, will return the mon if needed.
>>58587151Saves your seeds lol for TM moves, they get mastered after like 3 levels for level up moves.>in battle+moves are a 20% damage boost roughly, and I think it was 30-40% boost on super effective moves. they also deal damage through protect and are a way for none megas to stay competitive since it uses mega gauge. A +move can turn a 2hko into an OHKO. also keep in mind that some nerds did data mining and math and turns out>screens only block 1/3 of damage instead of half like other games>all damage is reduced by 30%
>>58587162>>58587140I'm retarded, how long does it take to level up + moves in battle?
I caught a second shiny Larvitar in za and I'm not gonna use it. I'd be glad to trade it if anyone's interested.
>>58587173Three levels after they are normally learned
>>58587181What are you willing to take?
>>58587194My current target is Pansear but I'm flexible. What do you have?
>>58587107Chomps are running insane bulk and in mine's case, an ice reduction berry.Because speed is nearly useless it means everyone runs bulky spreads.
>>58587156Sure thing, search my post numberIt would also be great if you could help me with this as well if you can: >>58586799
>>58586316Charge is so busted. Needs to be 1.5x
>>58587201Nothing lol I was just curious my bad but maybe a different anon here has one
>>58587217Thanks bro, youre a real one
>>58587189Thanks, guess I need to do a few more level ups.
>>58587243No problem, and thanks for the touch trade
>>58587224I think it's fine because earthquake and dig exist and are so widespread.>>58586316Same. It's annoying, but not in the same way garchomp is.
Anyone willing to trade me a hisuian Growlithe or Arcanine in Scarlet? I don't have anything good to offer, unfortunately.
>>58587357Can you not get one from Perrin or something? Does it have to be FROM that game or just in the game?
>>58587375Nah, just in the game so that I can breed it. I haven't done the Kitakami dex thing on this save file.
Glaceonbros is xs that much better than s?
>>58587380Gimme a bit then I can
>>58587394Thanks. Appreciate it.
>>58587383its cuter
So is there any reason to go for Alphas for PvP and not XS? It feels like a larger pokemon means a larger hitbox.
>>58587394Crap, never mind. Apparently I have one in Home.
>>58587405hmmm you have a point
>infestation+ghost curse
>>58587396Ok, I’m back. Post code whenever
>>58587425Oh well nevermind >>58587456 then
>got two lure balls for getting masterball last seasonSince when has this been a thing? At least I’m GB 9 to start
Anyone willing to trade a Love Ball, for any other apricorn ball?
>>58587487yes. i'll trade one for a moon ball
>>58587498No problem.We can use the last numbers in this post for the trade code.
>>58587498Thanks anon!That was the only one I was missing.
>>58587597same here. fucking grinding for it was a nightmare.
>>58587210I started using expert belt for it.The chomp is going down.
>not a single /wfg/ za battle room since the game releasedaren't you guys done building your team by now?
I’m never using this ugly sport ball, anyone wanna give me 2 friend balls for it?
>Just had a 14 kill matchRNG just kept throwing attack cards at my feet and with sword dance, I became death on wheels.
Despite the Metagross population expert belt aurorus is working.
fucking fennekin dude.
For anyone curious, Xerneas is a lil bitch that dies to charged volt tackleSincerely, zap mouse
I plan on running beedrill, aggron, but idk for my third. Any suggestions that isn't the same shit like xerneas?
>>58587892Meganium, or emolga for resists.
>>58587839I know that feel.
I need a friend ball, i have love, heavy, level, lure and moon
>>58587913Cute male gardevoir btw
>>58587913i'll take a moon ball for my friend ball
>>58587892>who can beat beedrill>who can beat aggrook, so take those pokemon>who isn't beat by the people who beat beedrill?>who isn't beat by the people who beat aggron?>who can beat the people that beat beedrill?>who can beat the people who beat aggron?the easy answer is garchomp, but you can look other options
>>58587928>>58587897tyty
>>58587924Thanks, let’s use this post number to trade
>>58587924Thanks anon, do you want your pokemon back?
>>58587944and thank youplease take it as a token of anonship.i have too many of them from my hunts btw
>>58587934And off the rip, your team >resists fairies>hits them for super effective>resists poison>can both carry a strong ground move that hits them for super effective>huge fire weakness>no groud immunitybedrill is kinda stuck with lunge, poison jab, drill run, swords dance but that means he KO's xerneas for sure. Aggron can carry the elemental punches, along with heavy slam and head smash
>>58587971thanks for the pointers. didn't play actual competitive at all, so all this stuff is new to me
So whys Xerneas so good? Takes advantage of the battle system the best? Doesn't have many counters due to the limited pokemon pool?
>>58587981Geomancy makes it hit like a nuke and be hard to kill, and items like the quick claw can activate it instantly making it insanely broken
What is this bullshit where people can not only instantly switch out their pokemon after doing a move and they get invulability doing it.But I have to wait to do it and, can still die in the middle of it?
I'm having extreme difficulty one shotting fucking ANYTHING, even after they've taken chip, yet everything is taking out my units left and right like it's nothinghttps://files.catbox.moe/zm1hff.mp4
>>58587981He's not, he's not as bulky on the physical side vs any boosted Pokémon. He IS fast as fuck, so often your attacks can whiff, and you waste your one card against him while he kites you for daysthe answer to that is ranged attacks, but thats usually special and >>58587983 happens.>>58587993Should have used +moonblast if you wanted a one shot.The Ampharos had charge up, and he STILL used a +tbolt to make sure he secured the kill. Also, should have mega'd
>>58587981Basically it's fast, gets faster after geomancy and hits like a truck with some bulk.I'm not joking this asshole can juke a lot of moves with minimal effort.
>>58587998>+tboltSo THATS what happened, okay, feels little less bullshit Still fucking gay though
>>58588000>gets faster after geomancyHe gets shorter cooldowns on his attacks, he doesn't actually get faster
>>58587993Why did you remove the HP EVs from your alphas? Speed is shit, that's why everything is bulky
>>58588018I did that before I started researching meta, just havent gone back to fix it yet
>>58588015Really because it feels like it got faster, bastard gets out of the way of iron tail like it was nothing.
>>58588015i thought it does. the move says it gets faster and that thing looks like its booking itidk i might be brain dead. no work
>>58588023He's just really, really fast. He can't move faster than your characterPop him out and do small circles, clockwise and countercheck wise and he how much he moves position
>D Rank onwardI'm just quitting matches now than dealing with bullshit groups. Game doesn't punish you for it either.
>>58588116Not sure why you need to let everyone know you're a quitter but ok, you're just wasting your own time.
>>58588116There are groups?
>>58588144If game freak doesn't want you dropping out of matches because of how imbalanced the game is and how shitty the netcode is, they'd institute a penalty system for doing it.
>>58588160Sure, but like, the rewards for 1st and second place aren't crazy different. It's maybe 30 seconds to a minute to get into another match.If you dip from the first match, dipping from the second match and getting into a third match would be the same amount of time as just playing out the 1st match, and you get nothing out of it
>the japanese
>>58588174To obad the rewards for 3rd and 4th are trash. Easier to dip and save some time overall than get garbage rewards.
>>58588178> programing a "twerking" of sort in-game> "WHY IS THAT HAPPENING TO US?"I mean ... it is their fault for not learning about their horny fanbase OR they already knew but they are engaging underhandedly
Where do I sign to ban xerny next season?
>>58588264I think the problem is that poison and steel attacks got no real range or speedy projectiles outside of heavy slam.Sludge bomb can be blocked by a fucking lamp post so no orbs or beams either.
>>58584890What would you like for the Froakie? I have about 6 boxes of shones
>>58588264I saw an anon days ago that said Geomancy was ass in this game yet it isnt
>>58586316BASED AMPHY
I'm going to try to grind Ranked for the stones and balls, what's the best core if I want to use my Shiny Alpha Gardevoir?What's the best moveset I should give her and Nature?
>>58588598Do you want it to kill because that's kind of hard to do in this meta.Too many steels and bulky deers mean everyone is packing fairy hate something fierce right now.You could try to support with it double screens thunderbolt and psyshock.
>>58588178the power of cunny
Beedrillers, do I want an alpha for online? or tiny assassin?
>>58586316How do you run Thunder? When I used it I found Tbolt and Volt switch to be way better
>>58588650The smaller the mon the harder it is to hit them, but flying invalidates that so go hog-wild and choose what you want.
>>58588744I understand now
>tfw no frog overnightit’s over
>>58588870There was a frog but you got 11 shinies.
Friends, I’m looking for a shiny alpha Fennekin in any Apriball. I have shiny alphas for trade, regular shines, gold bottle caps, etc Willing to trade multiple shinies or a combination of whatever to get this done. Who do I need to kiss to make this happen?
>reddit spacing
>>58589062Can you draw? I'll be willing to do it for art of my request and if supply the apriball.
>>58589151Not at all, sadly.
>>58584970>>58584979lmao
>>58588997MORE FALINKS
>switch out>metagross>run away across the entire mapWOW SO FUN
>>58589315oh wait sorry i forgot>MEGA EVOLVE AND AVOID YOUR ATTACK LOLOLOLOL
Anyone have any duplicate shiny starters for trade or they don’t mind giving away? I have a bunch of random shinies and alpha shinies that I’ve accumulated. For a Shiny Fennekin, we can work out something specific you want.
>>58589350I've got a fennekin. What shinies do you have?
>>58589407is it alpha, by chance?
>>58589424I could part with an alpha if you have a shiny xs I like.
>>58589472Soooooo, i would be willing to trade you literally every single shiny i have to you for an alpha shiny fennekin (or anything in that line). The “valuable” shinies i have are:Shiny Alpha GibbleShiny Dragonite Shiny Totodile Shiny Alpha Goodra
>>58589488So no shiny xs? I can trade regular shiny fen for your shiny totodile.
>>58589517yeah i checked, no shiny xs would you accept a golden bottlecap on top of the totodile for the alpha? but that works for me. searching this post number now. ty anon
>>58589532If I find another alpha I'll be more willing to let go but for now it's my only one. I'll make a post about an alpha if I get another one.
>>58589549ty anon.
anyone have an extra shiny froakie in any decent looking ball? alpha preferred, but if it’s in an apriball of any kind that is more than fine.have bottlecaps or you can just let me know what you want.
I fucking hate season 2, and I had a ridiculous amount of fun in season 1. It's just 3 people bringing xerneas, spamming light screen and reflect, and playing like a bunch of sissy faggots and it's gay as hell. Just isn't as fun and exciting as before.
>>58589837Yea, its pretty weird they'd allow Xerneas and Yveltal in ranked.
>>58589837I don't see the issue, Metagross one shots it and Garchomp.
>>58589720I have a shiny Greninja in a moonball that I got in a giveaway. I have two, so i dont need the second one.
>>58589869The problem with Xerneas is it moves too fast, if you try to engage it they'll just tun and run while waiting for someone to get you from behind
>>58589889>someone moves from behind>eq their assnot an issue
>>58589876That’s perfect. What would you like for it?
>>58589837Uh just use brick break?
>>58589892>Yveltal used heatwave>Ampharos used charge+Thunderbolt>Excadrill/Garchomp used DigYou'll die if you don't switch
>>58589904>uhh just use ___???You dumb nigger, the point is the entire fucking format feels gay as shit. It's a pussy format, it's a twinkletoes format. It's a boring format. I'm not having problem winning, it's just NOT AS FUCKING FUN.
new bread?
>>58589919>ice punch Yveltal>eq Ampharos>eq Excadrill>ice punch Garchompi literally never lose
new bread>>58589930>>58589930>>58589930
>>58589902A gold bottle cap is fine. Im at the gym for another hour though. Ill let you know when I get home.
>>58589948I’d do a gold bottlecap for an alpha, but not a regular shiny. I currently only have two golden bottlecaps. Is there anything else you would take?
>>58589957It is alpha though.
>>58589961WAIT I DIDNT KNOWYeah, sorry, let’s do it I’ll search my post number now
>>58589978Like I said, I'm at the gym. Give me like an hour to get home.
>>58589985BASED FIT ANONOkay *sweats nervously while you sweat for real at the gym*
