Talk about battling and teams and ask about specific Pokémon. Someone might help you if you're lucky. Brainstorm on how to defeat angry fetuses and deer gods. Also don't forget to bitch about the meta.Just say SOMETHING and dont let the thread die.
Mewtwo is arguably better than Xerneas when pitted 1v1. Psystrike ignores geomancy boosts which is why it works.Mewtwo also has better coverage too. Its biggest weakness is actually its 4 move slots, they're precious and you can't cover everything.
I just Swords Dance and sneak on up Mewtwos with Phantom Force.
Knock Off/Snarl/Crunch/Reflect Umbreon is hilarious.Just knock items, Snarl down those special boosts, Reflect up on the physical attackers. I've had matches where all 3 people chase me for a good 20 seconds before taking me down.
>swords dance with beedrill when Im just barely in range>maaaaybe get off another swords dance if I go unnoticed for long enough>mega evolve>delete like 1 or 2 pokémonI know he's shit and dies to a light breeze but it's so funny to use
fun things I've learned while playing ranked tonightShuca berry umbreon with knock off and crunch destroys mewtwo. Run toxic if they just try to run away, it forces them to either switch or actually fightSupper effective berries in general are fucking amazing since they respawn alongside your pokemon. I run an ice weakening berry on my venosaur.plus solar beam ignores the long charge up time, it's the best way to snipe kills imo.
>>58711136>two swords dancesI thought boosts maxed out at 1. Like calm mind raises spc def/attack while nasty plot only raises special attack, but it lasts longer.
>>58711119Really?Normally pangoro just focus energy then CCs and that's a dead Umbreon through reflect.
zygarde is a fraud
>>58711163welp, didn't know that m8. Guess now I can stop hanging around in the backround like a cheeky cunt for as long.
>>58711191I’ve had games where I switch out Zygarde and 3 ice beams hit the air where he used to be, people have an utterly deranged hatred of him
>>58711137>Shuca berry umbreonYou mean Colbur. Shuca is for Ground
>>58711250fuck your rightSorry, I don't really play comp and this is my first time using these berries
>>58711119So how does that get you KOs then?
good Audino set?
>>58711342>using “audino” and “good” in the same sentenceLmao, even
>>58711342Wish, Hyper voice, Ice Beam, (coverage you need here) probably
>>58711342I ran Mega with Calm Mind, TBolt/Ice Beam, Dazzling Gleam and Fire Blast. It was serviceable, but really not the best use of the Mega slot. Regular with dual screens seems like the better set.
>>58711240Zygarde suffers for Garchomp's sins.Ice is just really good coverage in this meta so everyone carries it.
How many trained Pokemon do you all have for online?
>>58711631About a box and a half.
mega lass good or is it mega ASS?
>>58711631Getting closer to a box.90% are shiny alphas.
>>58711253No worries I was just saying in case someone else wanted to try it out. Haven’t seen much tech with the super effective reduction berries (or most items) so it’s cool to see
What is the logic of these people that are just standing in the corner attacking with one move only if you get close? Do they have a rubber band on their controller or something?
>>58711885MIGHT be trying to get a title with a turbo controller
>>58711885If I had a nickel every time a gross explode in front of my mon, just to give me a free kill because I attacked first with a gengar, I had 3 just this season
how do you guys play this slop
>>58711991On Switch. You can probably emulate it.
>>58711991We don't play Digimon though?
>>58711991It’s not fun, but it is easy. I just wish there were more formats than just Z-A ranked.
Is it possible to memorize the spawning locations and or timing of pick ups on the map?
>>58711828No answer. I assume she's ass. Shame.
>>58712286Don't use an alpha lass btw. She's so goddamn tall that she can be hit by anything.
>>58712299I figured her stature was basically a beacon for everyones attention. She might be fun as a screen setter and STAB LO option.
Is there a list of all the moves that gain larger hotboxes when the pokemon is an alpha?
>>58712371All of them, saar.
>>58712286It’s not terrible since it has STAB against common Pokemon but and good special defense but being weak to steel is a pain
>>58712425luckily the most common steel doesnt enjoy shadow ball
Alolan Marowak is gonna be so god damn broken if thick club is in
Is this a good game to jump into if I haven’t enjoyed any of these games since the DS
>>58712491No
>>58712486i'm going to tear that little ghost bitch a new asshole with knock off.>>58712491If you greatly enjoy pvp battling, it's a great purchase. If what you like about Pokémon games is also everything else, you're going to be sorely disappointed.
>>58712496>>58712505Thanks guys
What's a good moveset for Gyarados?
>>58712525Bounce Crunch Icefang Waterfall
>>58712541Thanks anon
>>58711082>Also don't forget to bitch about the metaI'll give you a bump just to bitch about the game, in general. The mechanics are so boring that I wouldn't have bothered to get the starter evo stones if it hadn't been for the Mewtwo event, and I'm so thankful that you can get all of them within 2 online matches. I wish Z-A at least had a ribbon / mark grind or something.
>>58712547The problems with the game are fundamental.Things related to movement speed, the imbalance of attack speeds and homing attacks that skip accuracy.
what are the chances of everyone playing the new meta for 1 or 2 months before the thread returning to being as dead as it is now
