>>59399362GG bro I really need a Torkoal lmaooooo
Ffs stop walling me on singles
>>59399394gg, I wanted to click Hyper Voice and not Hyper Beam on turn 1 too lel
You DO have titles on all your teammates, right anon?
>>59399405what titles matter anyway?
>>59399406whichever ones you like, unless you like sociable.
Sociable means she's a whore btw
>>59399429thats former idol
I want to use Gardevoir professor but I fear I’ll look like a degenerate coomer
>>59399436WorseYou'll look like a casual.
picked up champions on my phone earlier in the week, anything looking especially egregious here?last played VGC three years ago running a team around sharpness gallade+indeedee - given that I already had a maushold in pokemon home I've been trying a similar idea for my first team here. gallade is too slow to sweep though with redirection and friend guard plus the option of aurora veil for damage mitigation I can usually get him to one-shot or severely dent a lot of threats, but whimisicott-staraptor is a lead that eats it alive. while zoroark is a fun lead option, a lot of times I'd like to disguise him as incineroar and it's a tell if intimidate doesn't activate. been fun getting to masterball and learning reg m-b threats but I think I'll work on another core soon
why do some battles give way more VP
Maybe the most annoying thing about archaludon is how electro shot takes 30 seconds to play the animation
>>59399474if you don't lose Pokemon i guess. Or how fast you take the other guy out
>>59399454a few things, does maushold outspeed staraptor when mega'd or the other fast attackers? If not, you might be better off redistributing the speed to defenses since you'll be getting charm/super fang off after it no matter what then. maybe you want to consider trickroom on gallade over possibly protect as it would allow you to still have speed control without putting your mega at risk without attacking for one turn and allows you to of course reverse trick room. if zoroark works for you, great, but 3/5 of your guys will give away the trick if they're used as an illusion assuming the opponent isn't retarded
>>59399406The best flexes are old game titles (the Triumphant, the Living Legend, the Model for Paintings, etc) or a fitting personality mark. The Rank Master is generally not great unless it's something ubiquitous like Incineroar.
Can these meta jerks just take it seriously and progress to Master already so I can get to Master too and live in peace
>>59399503no i need to finish getting my ribbons before i dab on the ladder
>>59399499I have a shiny sableye with the original "the Champion" and a metagross with "the Treasured Memory" :D
10% chance to lower special attack but my moonblast sure does it so kingambit can get that defiant boost
Post your team RIGHT fucking now
Its crazy how much worse archaludon rain became with grimmsnarl
Why the fuck does my goat typhlosion not have a mega yet? He has crazy potential with eruption and we’re stuck with the shitty gay pedo ass hisuian version
>>59399389Zard x is fucking GARBAGE what the fuck did they smoke at gamecucks? Literally got outspeed as a MEGA with a dd and one shot by fucking garchomp unboosted dragon claw, they need to fucking uner buff this shitty fucking pokemon and double his atk speed def and everything, fucking shit mega while y oneshots all the fucking mons thats retarded as fuck
>>59399703It was probably Scarf Chomp. Dragon Claw ain't nothing to scoff at either when it's SE.
>>59399674>Typedolosion>goat
>>59399722Thats the gay ass hishit version, my goat johtolosion didndu nothing
>>59399727But it was the OG that did it, anon... Hisuian is more into DILFs
>>59399703>Zard X one shot by a Dragon pulse from base Zard
>>59399499every in mumbai has the rank master title.no flex in it
>>59399714So garchomp base is literally a non mega that’s better than mega zard x boosted with dd and gamecucks find that normal ?
>>59399765I mean, Garchomp had to use an item to be faster than your Zard. Just because it wasn't a mega doesn't mean it's suddenly not a pseudo legendary.
>>59399703>>59399765Just because you get Dragon Dance up, that doesn't suddenly remove your type weaknesses, especially when Garchomp's whole thing is being slightly faster than base 100s and you can reasonably expect it to be scarfed anyway.It's not the game's fault you didn't get rid of your mon's counters before committing to a DD sweep.
>trick room in front of whimscott and forgot to switch>he encores my trick room, but also attack that slot in case I switch>kills me before I reset the trick roomThat was the right play, but fate was on my side
>>59399585How so? I only see grimm with mega bird
Can be hard to fit but Taunt is a very anti-meta move, hate sinistcha, fagiraf and whimsicott? have a dedicated taunt user (preferably non-prankster cause dark types, specifically sableye)
>>59399813It sets up screens then parting shots you so you have to get through dual screen archaludon and its a slow parting shot so you cant sunny day the rain away unless you telegraph a torkoal and bring it in same turn
>Annihilape the Teenyi hate it, back to the ranch you go
Spend more time team building and theorycrafting than playing award>>59399827Honestly, half the time it feels like people make mistakes in the end game by getting too cute with status moves rather than just attacking. Taunt is great to start, but I'm not going to taunt in a 2v2 most of the time so they fuck up.
>>59399827>tauntThen they somehow have Mental Herb
>>59399492yeah maushold hits 179, zoroark/jolly mega staraptor 178, alola ninetales 177. the +2 from charm is great when it works, but after seeing all the tricks whimiscott can pull with prankster I am thinking tickle might be better as I can then turn my mega staraptor into a bulky roost set. I played that on ladder and couldn't do much after it started boosting.when I was running my team in 2023 gallade had trick room, you make a good point it might be worth going back to that as zoroark is my only taunt option and in closed team sheet I never know what the hell has mental herb anyways.
>>59399838Can't you just take off the title in customization?
>>59399846Yeah, hate when that happens, players who use mental herb must've had ptsd from whim putting their giraffe in Encore loopvhell, probably better off having scizor use bug bite to take away possible Berry into a dark type move with its teammate
>>59399848I don't play staraptor, but it seems like you wouldn't want to use maus unless it was for redirection a lot of the time. That's what it's got on whimsicott and clef is somewhere in between yet worse than both.
>>59399852women are still gonna notice when your ape small cuh
>Taunt>Yawn>Foul Play>Snarl>can take an unboosted CC from mega staraptor>don't take no shi from basculegion Umbreon is so underrated, would be a menace on a perish trap team
>>59399899Oh yeah how could I forget Inner Focus, the amount of people who try to flinch it with Fake Out is hilarious
>>59399899Umbreon is mostly a BSS choice though it definitely gains an infamy with some CC
Man sneasler and basculegion really make me want to stop playing this game.>hey does your team have a good fighting resist?>doesn't matter, dire claw will hit sleep anyway!
Keeping Ychu in base against archaludon to set up with a water type is hilarious
>>59399899Umbreon is a shitty cartoon animal that only zoophiles like.
>try pyroar>get 3 mirrors instantlyFuck off game
Downloaded the game yesterday, hadn't played competitively since gen 4 and managed to hit master in a day for singles. Blowing shit up with Mega Medicham was really neat, shame Mega Staraptor and Basculegion are so prevalent and unfun to deal with.I have never engaged with VGC or any doubles meta, is there a resource of meta combos anywhere for me to use as a starting point? I'd be fine just trying shit randomly on the lower ranks, but I can't google abilities and base stats fast enough for doubles like I could with singles, too many things to consider
>>59399972My retarded ass somehow missed the usage links in the OP, I only clicked the rentry, disregard my question I guess
My ass keep getting kicked all the way to Timbuktu :(
Delphox rise up
I wanted torkoal for today's free pull but it gave me Armarouge my beloved.Do I replace Chomp with Arma bros? Or do I just wait for the koal... also running out of VP and slots lol
>>59399827Taunt Aero has been a godsend against the Giraffe when it doesn't eat a Fake Out.
>>59400010>Do I replace Chomp with Arma bros?I find armarouge usually works better with support, preferably psychic terrain. I think i rocked meowstic + rouge for the psy spam.Chomp on the other hand is more independent, though i see you use its mega under trick room. >Or do I just wait for the koal... also running out of VP and slots loldont you have that japanese sinistcha which i assume is traded, just trade for a torkoal. Also you cant tell me you actually are planning to use that sinistea or musharna
armorouge is gonna slap when you can weak armor + weak armor flip turn scarf palafin -> indeedee
>>59400016Thanks anon yea i'll just wait a bit for torkoal i'm out of vp anyway>dont you have that japanese sinistcha which i assume is traded, just trade for a torkoalI got it from another anon from the previous thread. If I still dont get him then i'll just put up another pidove in GTS lol>Also you cant tell me you actually are planning to use that sinistea or musharnaNo kidding i got floored by a baton pass teacup lead in singles once, and walled by a musharna lead in doubles yesterday. Biggest mistake was experimenting with quick claw ditto lmao
>>59400032I want mega alakazam overwhelming opponents with expanding force
Ceruledge laughs at mega staraptor
I highly suggest you guys write notes so you don't do stuff like use priority moves when giraffe or tsareena is on the field and use protect when your sweeper is on low health when an incineroar enters the field
>>59400037>If I still dont get him then i'll just put up another pidove in GTS loljust toss the pidove and screenshot your posting. Its just a torkoal, ill float one over

>>59400074Thanks
>>59400074Thanks anon
>>59400110And to compliment gyara
Thanks to the anon that gave me a greninja the other day I managed to make this meme snowscape teamGreninja is great, nobody runs herb in their trick room teams so I got a decent amount of instaquits The weather match ups are about 50/50 but manually flip turning with Basc into Vanilluxe is niceSo far the team dies to steel and has a pretty annoying time with Venusaur and Wide guard but those two are workableManaged to stay in master ball 2, if someone want to try it W84F3ULE50
>>59400159why sitrus instead of chople berry on gambit.And if you have trouble with steel types (archaludon, opposing kingambit) why not tech in a low kick on your own gambit?
Can someone explain to me the appeal of raichu-ypicking a mega where your stab attacking option is a literal coin flip in zap cannon
>>59400179Looks up Y's ability.
>>59400000Checked
>>59400167I feel gambit needs the extra hp for certain matchups and the ice types can handle every relevant fighting type except Sneasler which Talonflame handlesArchaludon si actually not that great against the team, double blizzard kills it even with spdef investment but you're right, enemy gambit is an issue, might drop kowtow
>>59400181>marketing made manifest, the mega evolution
>opp leads Arch + Basc, I lead Whims + Gambit>kowtow the Basc slot and sunny day to cover for Peli switch>T1 opp switches Basc for Peli, sun overrides and Arch now stuck electroshotting. Peli down to 11% from kowtow>moonblast Peli slot, low kick Arch since I don't care to protect>T2 opp loses Peli, his only weather. Gambit takes 70% from electroonshot, low kick does 52% to Arch>opp sends in Swampert, Whims uses TW while I kowtow the Swampert slot. Ignore the Arch.>T3 Swampert megas Arch protects, TW goes up, Kowtow into Swampert does good damage, Swampert EQs to KOs>I send in Sylveon, moonblast the Arch + Hyper Voice>T4 Moonblast takes Arch into KO range and Hyper Voice picks up a double KO in Arch and Swampert>opp forfeits
Experimenting isn't paying off and I've run out of vp so I'm going back to these guys but with the matcha and spatk starmie this time. Hopefully this still works against rain and sandstorm teams even without my ditto cheese but I'm worried about snow teams, don't have a lot of experience fighting those. Will definitely struggle against TR teams so I'm thinking of teaching matcha TR to counter. I don't see the value of rage powder because everyone defaults to targeting them anyway. Might also help with guys that start off with their own whimsi.
>>59400179Keeping it in baseform to switch into archaludon for an easy azumarill belly drum and proceding to mega evolve it to Focus Blast with +1 SpA, also kills mega staraptors on sight if they aren't under tailwind
https://play.limitlesstcg.com/tournament/69c7cead36f5b5c303dbfa0c/standingsIn case you did not see it, there was a great big charity tournament with 728 entrants. Joseph Ugarte won.Zard teams were almost half of top cut, M-B isn't much different.
I really hope they give us a new core 200 instead of just rotating shit with what we currently have. I know there will always be a gay meta but I’m so fucking sick of picrel.
How the fuck do I kill megastaraptor if they set up light screen with prankster klefki/grimsnarl?
>>59400259They need to increase box sizes first or allow us to transfer some of these mons, especially those in special balls to home.
the level of play in great ball was unironically a million times higher than ultra or master ball
is that charizard team the strongest rn or rain
Any news on what mons are coming to M-C?
>>59400259>I really hope they give us a new core 200 instead of just rotating shit with what we currently haveHow about buffing all the weaker Pokemon?Oh wait this franchise is too absolutely cuckolded for that.
>>59399405if you lose with tryhard titles it makes it more embarassing, plain outfit with no titles or shinies = i dont care if i lose and if i win it's even worse for you
>>59400265No lmao. We literally had no idea mons were coming with M-B until the patch dropped.
>>59400270Seriously this lmao. Im just playing to keep my noggin a knockin
>>59400270I still remember stomping some dude who had a full of team of Paldean champions a few seasons ago who clearly didn't know what he was doing. I felt bad...
can you really not get the flower fairy thing without playing a mainline game (including doing a lot of the postgame?)
>>59400264Zard Y archetypes have been #1 without question.
>>59400265as per usual we can extrapolate, but just like M-B, who knows.From the non-legendaries we still dont have>golisopod>tatsugiri (and probably by extension Dondozo)>baxcaliburProbably Z-legendaries>Absol Z>Chomp Z>Lucario Zlegendaries are most likely not coming in yet, but other mons which arent megas are most likely coming in as well. I have my wishlists on Oricorio
>>59400291>*Z-megaswoops
>>59400258>whomosicott>troonveon>faggolegion>tranny room>noodle bowlsomehow in the middle of all that slop, (((gholdengo))) players are the least faggy, but not by much.
>>59400291>golisopodthough claws, that’s how unoriginal they are.>baxcaliburthermal exchange, i never really liked this ability besides side-lining will-o-wisp, basc still folds to any fire move. its quite weak defensively.>mega tatsugirithis one is a bit up in the air, either something strong to make up for its low stats, and i dont see Commander not getting a nerf, since people seems to have a hard time understanding what counter play is and smogonbabies really hate CHADonzo + sushi mon wombo combo that you can see from a mile away.>Absol Zsome shit like inner focus or w/e, hopefully scrappy at least, but even that would be underwhelming.>Chomp Zim honestly expecting levitate>Lucario Zsame shit as normal lucario, adaptability.
>>59400283Paldea champ is literally just finishing the game. It's like the most basic title. Trusted partner, gourmand, itemfinder are all more tryhard gen 9 only ones.
>>59400311Yeah, but you can only beat the game once per file. Meaning this guy was either a campaignfag trying out comp or someone who went through the effort of beating the game with those mons just for the titles and was still super bad anyway.
>pick this game up>read that you can transfer pokemon go pokemon to champions to use>dont have anything good in pokemon goit's over, is location spoofing still a thing?
>>59400314No you get it after every time you beat the school tournament
Imagine if they brought back hail
>>59400315you can also just ask in the thread since pokemon home trades are a thing.You only need Go shitmons as a trade medium
>>59400318

I need my boy Clodsire in this kusoge
People never read do they?
When is this dzaddy coming to the game?
>>59400341lollmao
>>59400341in 5 years
>>59400330i see the vision. he was thinking you'd switch because both threaten an ohko with flare blitz and brave bird + tsarneena is now -1 attack. assuming he respected the ability, the switch would be the best play, probably. similar to how people will "cheat" by running sap sipper giraffe and don't get fake out'd since its assumed to be armor tail.
>>59400315You can easily manage with daily recruits. Only one pokemon is locked out unlike M-A
What team can I build with these? Also I only have 1.3k to spend, but the lycanroc is shiny -looking eyes emoji-
>>59400373honestly if you have zero coherence in a team, just minmax all your members and go play singles.Making a coherent 'team' is more a doubles thing. You legit can play random shit in singles and do well.>https://pokechamdb.com/enpick whatever mon, make Venusaur really fat to tank incoming damage, and you should be fine
>>59400344I'm starting to see it when you say it like that but it's 3 dimensions ahead of me, if i see a fakeout pokemon on the roster 9/10 times tsareena is staying in, especially since i know I'm gonna OHKO staraptor with slowbro. Even if tsareena goes down at least their sweeper is out.
>>59400389yeah 99% of the time you'd be better off online just playing the obvious move. you could just protect the tsareena and be safe even if he flare blitz'd and assuming he cc'd or throat chopped the slowbro (worst case, I guess), you can still regen the damage if you aren't gambling on a quickdraw meme kill
Cat 4 cat please
I saw a few channels had some shit with drops going while playing champions. Is there something with that or are they just trying to farm views?
>>59400445Now we have actual twitch drops tie ins with Champions>https://www.pokemon.com/us/news/tune-in-to-naic-to-get-a-blastoise-in-pokemon-champions-and-other-special-giftsThe last one was NAIC i think, and the next one should be Worlds. You can see the history of Mon giveaways here>https://www.serebii.net/pokemonchampions/giftpokemon.shtmlThere are other smaller channels which also do giveaways for Quick tickets but ive never tried that out
>>59400315transfer a bunch of crap and throw it in the GTS, I've gotten like 40 good mons including 5 sinistchas from just aggressive trading
>>59400407stop begging, faggot.
keep begging, it works
i got a delphox finally but its a male
retard here what are you supposed to do against a gengar doing perish song
>>59400471Sit in a corner and cry as your favorite Pokemon is too shit to be considered using.
>>59400471something that outspeeds it and use taunt.also there’s an item that lets you switch out regardless of condition you are on, shed skin.
>>59400471kill them in under 3 turns
>>59400471Double up on it.Spread moves like earthquake.Taunt.Uturn/volt switchAll in all, you either have the out, or you dont. Some teams outright just lose 100% of the time barring niche techs
>>59400471a lot of stuff will ohko. if you lead 2 of those, their incin can only fake out one of them
>>59400242I just got literally destroyed by Milotic and Freeze Rotom. I was only able to take down Garchomp. I'll need to take out Protect from Starmie and Arch and just run coverage moves. I noticed how every time someone runs Milotic I just get walled. Even worse if it's Milo and the matcha together. I'm so tired. He didn't even need to bring out his Mega Fros or Ditto.
>>59400484>vanilla starmieUnc this isnt RBY OU anymore. He sucks ass.
>>59400486erm he was good in gen 4 battle tower with the focus sash
>>59400486I needed something that could go first and bring down their speed with icy wind esp the chomp. I dont have vp to either recruit or even train a milotic either, i'll have to wait till season is over.
>>59400491>I needed something that could go first and bring down their speed with icy wind esp the chomp.H-zoroark seems right up your alley then. Has good coverage, bamboozle the opponent, really fast.>I dont have vp to either recruit or even train a milotic eitherWhat did you spend VP on? Do share screenshots of your team overall.If you want, i can just send you mons through Home, but itll take a bit of time since im not genning
>>59400491>lowering speed vs a miloticidk mang, i don't think that's the move if you aren't just instantly murdering it with solar beam, then you're dead to lightning bolt anyways. a ninetales is probably a better pick, you keep the water SE damage with freeze dry, can aurora veil before you mega, its fast, and doesn't double up on a tbolt weakness if that's your go to opening. icy wind actually has a huge distribution, like even toxapex and basculegion get it or zoroark lol
>>59400497I posted most of em above. I was focused on singles and got to M4 but doubles has been a real pain. I used to run H Zoroark in singles but never got to make him work in doubles even with sash bec i got matched with unironic galaxybrains that just 2 shot him every time. I spent too much on really bad comps over the past days
>>59400491wait, why not have whimsicott with tailwind/taunt as your charizard partner? you don't need to lower their speed if you're increasing yours, you already have a whimsicott, and moonblast will hit the dragons that resist heat wave/weather ball, and solar beam? i assume that's your arch rain setter, but that doesn't seem like you'd want to take that unless it's vs rain. additionally, since you have zard-y, you might be able to cheese not running prankster and having chlorophyll so you can bypass things like armor tail or the dark-type prankster protection.
>>59400471Swords dance into bullet punch
>>59400500I was trying to kill rotom first but then heat wave missed both of em. Then the solar beam only did about 60% of damage before it recovered. Maybe running timid zard this whole time was a bad idea
>>59400509Now that you mention it i never realized that thing could learn chlorophyll lol. I was just concerned with weather control. But i guess that could be covered with whimsi also having sunny day in case the opp does a switcheroo. But it opens up too many variables especially if they go on the hyper offensive
>>59400509>wait, why not have whimsicot>>59400299
>>59400517I can't really comment on zard builds since it's kind of the antithesis to how I'm used to playing, with a mega in the back and trying to set up the board so they can sweep average CSR player. seems like you're trying to make the square peg of starmie fit in the round hole of a support role, though. starmie was good in other gens because it has a good matchup vs fire, water, and some other stuff like gengar while being fast. a sash lets it hit twice, or should at minimum let it get a hit off, so throwing off an ice beam, two thunderbolts, or surf (but you wouldn't do that unless charizard was dying or protecting anyways). like the best thing I could see it doing for you is icy wind -> surf or ice beam vs a chomp/aero lead, and that kind of feels like you'd be better off with something that can protect your mega better in that spot. like i said before, toxapex gets icy wind to slow turn 1 and then wide guard for rockslide, and alolan ninetales outspeeds a lot of stuff and has blizzard, freeze dry, and aurora veil to provide support before you get sun up. although none of that really matters that much if you're at the whims of the pokemon slots and how much vp you have.
>>59400407sent :)
>>59400526he literally already has it on his team. >>59400242
How many different pokeballs are there? I fought someone with a cool digital polygon effect and i've never seen it before
>>59400532https://www.serebii.net/itemdex/list/pokeball.shtmlI think that's heavy ball. If you really want one, they're easy to get in ZA and can be RNG'd pretty easily in SV. Same for SwSh, but I've never tried it there so don't know how hard it is.
>>59400527I'll consider using tox that way, seems reasonable. A.ninetales i used to run but everytime there's always a guy with either a weather move or a setter at the back so either blizzard just misses both or veil just flat out fails. So i've got some really complicated feelings about that thing
>>59400464hi moet
>>59400547who
are there any good singles games i can use, ive been playing doubles since it seems more fun and have no idea what to do for singles

>Finally climbed out of the pit of despair that was MB mid-1200s and got back to mid-1500sThank god that Parental Bond still exists, but doesn’t it say a lot that the meta has mostly stayed the same since the update because of the busted ass Gen 9 DLC mons (yes Sneasler and Basulegion are in there too). Probably holding out a fool’s hope but I do wonder if ILCA will look at usage stats and decide to nuke the top 10 mons in both singles and doubles similar to what GF did that one time in SwSh.
>>59400572>MB mid-1200snigga wtf you playing lmao
scovillain or pyroar pick for recruit ?
>>59400471Cant you just earthquake it? Mega gengar doesnt have levitate

Really should have just led with whimsi and zard. It was my first time facing off against minecraftmon so i forgot about salt cure and shit. His sneasler was running quick claw that kept procing for some reason too. I just forfeited after a dire claw put my zard to sleep
Cna i haz floette cheezeburgr?
well then, any good Champions teams around this guy?
>>59400662Lolno.Wait for it's Z-mega to be available.
>>59400619>neither does regular gengarWait when did they change this... am I out of touch?
>>59400671it lost it at some point yeah
>>59400662Legit one of the worst Pokemon in the entire game, can hit hard but that’s it
>>59400666>>59400679damn, it's one of my favorite mons from gen 3
>>59400671it lost it gen7 because of mega gengar being a bit too much specifically in gen6, ruining the day of the brand new fairy types
>>59400681Wait a few months until it gets the zaza
>>59400471Throat chop.
>>59400574Combination of trying a new team without knowing how to properly use it at the time, incredibly bad luck and being paired almost exclusively with nips because I live in the same time zone as them.
>>59400699Even in Swsh and SV as an East coast American most of my opponents were JP, you just have to accept they will be most of your opponents the West gets butthurt about comp Pokemon

>>59400718b-but he's still here....
So raichu is a flop, both megas? I never see them
>>59400738https://play.limitlesstcg.com/tournament/69c7cead36f5b5c303dbfa0c/standingsThere's one Raichu Y here
>>59400729I've been farming legendaries and shinies on GTSStuff like Basculegion, Archaludon and Kingambit are pretty high value trade fodder that aren't too difficult to get if you have something of decent value like trade evo Pokemon. Gholdengo's a little harder to get but once you have one you can just browse the wanted section all day and see all kinds of shinies and legendaries being offered
>>59400738I’ve seen a decent amount of Raichu Y in the lower parts of MB4 and exactly one Raichu X. That being said, I’ve also been seeing a lot more Psychic Terrain shenanigans over the past week so if that keeps up X could see a bump to try and counter that.
I started today and somehow got to Master Ball 2v2 using the most godawful line up ever and cheesing with Trick Room. The recruitment is ass, nothing useful ever appears in the ranch. Wtf is this game does it get any better
How do you beat Corviknight in singles
>>59400751Zard Y or MEGAnium
>>59400749I've been surviving off Pokemon GO/HOME. >Get dogshit in GO>Send to HOME>Wonder trade spam>Send decent stuff to GTS and ask for ANY Floette.>Morons constantly deposit insane mons (legendaries, shinies, shiny legendaries) on GTS and ask for ANY floette instead of specifically Eternal>Snipe those retards and get the good stuffIt's so consistent it's actually scary.
>>59400749meanwhile i'm stuck with jerks running the most perfect counters to whatever team i bring, jerks that won't go up the ladder just to dab on us poor UB peasants
meta is soo skewed to dmg that any kind of set up is irrelevant.i just run high stat mons and plow everything all the way to master nutts (in your moms mouth) 2.running scarf ttar like a fucking CHAD, fuck you and your gay ass girafat/whim

>>59400808yeah but at that point its a waste of a mega slot.Espathra is how you do a baton pass bot well.
>>59400804I think it’s supposed to be played kind of like Corviknight or Hisui Goodra>bring it in late game>iron defense+speed boost>mega and use leech life to shrug off damage >you can’t be crit so if they don’t have special answer they’re screwedBut too much work for not enough payoff in a game where M Charizard Y can delete 70% of two mons HP with a button

>>59400646Anyone still got an extra cloned Floette-E lying around? WeedleGo is still here
I only needed Bulky Adamant MChomp, Tox, and A.tales to clear out a sun team. I feel like the matcha is necessary to this core too. But how do I deal with rain and sand teams?Should I replace the first lil dude with Grimmsnarl? And Gambit with something else that's tanky and strong enough? I am worried about Basculegion though. Maybe Snorlax is an option for the ghost immunity? Or probably just run Milotic?
>>59400817
Definitely don't play this game during Jap hours

How's the character customization in this?
>>59400934Ass for now, all we have is a small selection of sporty shit. No double-tone hair like in ZA either.
I feel like hard trick room has kinda stalled out around 2k and I'm coinflipping if my opponent is fully retarded or not.How do I develop hard tr into a team that has modes? SO many of the recent high player tournaments have farig, but don't really have many/any tr abusers. Are they just doing shit like having zardy be 1 speed less than normal zard? Is it really that simple?
>>59400967>Is it really that simple?yes
>>59400971That's pretty miserable, and will just devolve into speed undercreeping by 1. I bid 10, I bid 11, I bid 12! It's also super lame and not in the theme of tr.
We simply don't have any good TR monMaybe they'll add Ursaluna next format
>>59400971what do you think the guys are scribbling in papers during tournaments?speed ties and what not, that’s it.

I'm stuck in ultra guys I'm not gonna make it
>>59399389Okay is official, I hate that we have so little box space because I want to make Pokémon for singles and Pokémon for VGC but I can't because I don't have the space for it. Them there is the multiple mega problem too, or a mega and a not mega build, Can I buy more space? I don't care if it cost 200 tickets or 200000 VPoints
>>59401122Do you care if it costs 50 bucks a year?
>>59401122>Can I buy more space?technically you can.Get a nintendo switch, play champions there and cough up 7 bucks.Or pay for the membership.Alternatively, you can get to Masters twice and then get 10 spaces
>>59401122how isnt the 50 slots they give you not enough?i have a doubles team and a singles one, total 12 slots, add some shitmons here and there and on total im using 21 spots.shit i don’t need gets sent to HOME.
>>59401128>Get a nintendo switch, play champions there and cough up 7 bucks.lmao that one time payment thing isn't on mobile?
>>59401128>get to Masters twice and then get 10 spacesif you get them on Doubles you don't get them again on Singles and vice versa
>>59401132>how isnt the 50 slots they give you not enough?>i have a doubles team and a singles one, total 12 slots, add some shitmons here and there and on total im using 21 spots.I need at least 700 spaces
>>59401138there arent even 700 mons in the game
>>59401134>that one time payment thing isn't on mobile?it is you have to go through the nintendo official page. Or maybe it isnt, i dont know, im getting mixed signals. some anons here swear they paid it using the page, but others say it doesnt work? I cant say for certain.
I wonder how well baiting people with Mega Raichu having a support set + skill swap and skill swap to fissure snorlax would work in this meta.Like probably not S+ team but I wonder if it would work.
>>59401145do TR MR.Rime with sheer cold.
>>59401147Genuine question is he even in the format? Also I'm a little concerned about his ability to take a hit which is a bonus to Snorlax.That said fissure not hitting flying in a format full of fliers is concerning so might have to do that.
>>59401145>skill swap to fissure snorlaxEveryone will see this coming from a 100 mile radius thanks to that one Wolfey video of him doing it with Mega Hawlucha.
>>59401159Was he doing it? Dammit.
>>59401153www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gcRrRuTzVs
>>59401142>there arent even 700 mons in the gameMultiple builds for the same Pokémon
>>59401170there arent even that many builds for the amount of mons in the game
>>59401169i guess hawlucha + snorlax is a dedicated team, whereas raichu + rime is kind of a gimmick stapled to an actual team. Rime has no bulk, but better support moves. Now that i say it out loud, this isnt too bad, he is kind of cooking
>>59401110>TR will NEVER compete in hogh level meta btwTR teams are good even in tournament setting wtf are you saying
>>59401167(Non-Alola) Raichu doesn't get any aility passing moves on its own, does it? That'd make it worse than the Entrainment Mega Hawlucha build Wolfey because your OHKO mon needs to be the one who transfers the ability instead of attacking straight in turn 1.
>>59401173>there arent even that many builds for the amount of mons in the gameI saw VGC players with 7 different builds just for Garchomp
>>59400967They're not using Farig for anything other than threatening to reverse TR and anti priority. They'll generally run Tbolt to improve its coverage, but it's not a very offensve mon.
>>59400904>OMG I HATE INCIN SO MUCH BROS JUST LIKE WOLFEThe difference here being that Wolfe is an excellent player and you're a shitter probably trying to force hard TR to work.
I think Incin is cool and cuddly
>>59401252I didn't care about Incin even when it was on 60%+ of teams.The people complaining about Incin at a time where its usage is the lowest it has been since it recieved its hidden ability are just parroting the opinions of better players.This is a very Incin hostile meta where its primary niche is on protect the queen Floette teams. Not as splashaboe as it used to be.

>>59401290>they have TR which means they are TR teamsAnon, get help. There isn't a Zard out there that is slower than Adamant Basc.The mons are calc'd for the neutral matchup and then TR is entirely situational or matchup dependent. Tailwind is a much more powerful tool in this meta.

>>59401314Your post is so retarded. They're called balance teams.Having TR doesn't make a TR team, it's situational. Having both TW and TR support is a hallmark of balance teams.On the other hand actual TR teams have fucking sucked since day 1 of champions.If "having TR" is the only qualification for what constitutes a TR team then they all are. No one is going to agree with your retarded assessment and no one is running a Zard slower than Adamant Basc.>hurr durr actually everyone Brave and Quiet natures on any team with TR

It's so baffling that they clearly take a great cares to minimize looking at outside source by clarifying bajillion terms and effects of moves and abilities, and yet they don't let you see Mega's stats and abilities when you build a team

currently running:>Whimsicott>Raichu>Metagross>Sylveon>Basculegion>GarchompI want to run Kingambit but idk who to replace. Maybe Metagross, but then I'd be losing psychic and ice attacks.
the fun thing about rain teams is half the people running them have room temperature IQs. I've won way too many battles against them that they really should have won themselves if they knew what they were doing.
>>59401362yeah unfortunately
>>59401362Yes, also Masuda comes to your home to suck your dick.

I just got rotom wash. Is it the answer to rain teams I was waiting for? I am going to make it extra bulky on the physical side to handle Swampert and basc.I just hope I don't miss hydro pump
>>59401492The answer to rain is one grass move, one electric move, opposing weather and a pokemon that can chunk Archa.
>>59401492Watch out for Archaludon though.
>>59401425Chomp is Zard's BFF, change Raichu Y to Zard lol.Change Metagross for Gambit.
>>59401505any mons that can run grass, electric and onetap archaludon in the game atm? best i got rn is sunny day whimsicott with energy ball + blaziken for archaludon but pelipper is a headache because it can get lucky with hurricane in the sun.
>opponent ragequit from a match that he could easily turn around
>>59401515The cat can fuck up both swampert and pelipper if you give it thunder punch.Any strong special attacker that can outspeed archa is nice to have, zard Y being the most obvious and boring one, overheat in sun is a OHK.
Anyone feel like their 90acc moves are landing at the frequency they should?
garchomp, jolly, focus sash, swords danceit's that easy
>>5940156690 is 90% chance to miss. There's no way it isn't weighted to fuck you over its crazy how often 90 accuracy moves miss
>>59401566Asking people about their feelings on probabilities is pointless. Humans are just not good at that.
>>59401566Just don't run 90 acc moves ;)
>>59401560Which cat
>>59401566All of my 90acc moves hit less often than my hydropump, and that means shit.

>>59401597>when did she get popularPeople got sick of everyone leading fake out mons i guess.
>>59401612I tend to attack the opposing Whims if I see my opponent's mon can't 1hko my Whim's partner, getting rid of their whims is very usefulyYou can always get TW up T2 and if they send in fake out then you just set it up T3 and enjoy massive staggered TW.
>>59401568>One (1) icicle spearHeh...
>>59401594If HOME accepts it, then it's legalEven if it screams hacked they can't expect to punish the kid who unknowingly got it via trade because it already passed all their own checks
>>59401597Tsareena is also just good.You can get it to 1hko uninvested Basc with Trop Kick, survive Adamant +32 Dire Claw, and outspeed Aerodactyl under TW.Adamant 22HP, 18Atk, 17 Def, 9SpeIt was my mvp during the first season.
>>59401625The question was more whether Home would accept it in the first place.
Having two of the same pokemon is funny.
>>59401634you sick fuck
wait, pokemon sizes are a thing in this game?
>>59401594Generally they don't give a shit about bugs when they're still functional unless it duplicates a pokemon. That said, older games have more checks to move things up than home seems to have right now as home will reset moves when moving to newer games and swsh had you reset moves before you could play online. Hacking in unobtainable stuff, like getting a hall of origin arceus is still blocked from moving to bank, I think, but that might be gen 4->5 instead. Shiny manaphy is legal to take to home, same as that one cap pikachu, and they're both bugs/mistakes (pikachu doesn't even have a shiny palette)
>>59401628Wide lens?

>>59401668It is for me but only because I am profoundly retarded
>>59401679Armarouge
is ceruledge good for anything? it looks really cool
>>59401690It survives an Adamant +32 150bp last respects 63% of the time and from the scarfed Jolly set(way more common early on) it's every time.Sneasler has fallen off a lot, but in season 1 it was very prominent, so that was the calc. It also survived things like dual wingbeat from sashed Aero.Don't let the board state become Tsareena v Basc.
>>59401655I ran Sitrus in season 1, but you might do wide lens this season for triple axel.
I don't know why I keep playing this game, it just makes me angry.
>>59401742It's good if you can manage to set up some bulk up, with support pokemon and/or by putting it in front of pokemon it can wall like charizard-Y.

>>59401750respectable, what moves do you run? i got wide lens triple axel + power whip. not sure what move to run last and you had trop kick over whip?

>lose game solely because the enemy Sneedler got a Dire Claw sleep onto my A-Ninetails stopping me from 2HKO'ing it next turn with Blizzard.
I tried to make Hoge for doubles, but it just doesn't seem feasible. Even less feasible than Hoge is by default.The Minimize+Instruct is actually great and results in Sandaconda almost never being hit, but>even with minimum HP, everything being set to level 50 means it's actually kind of hard to always trigger the Focus Sash, and Endeavor is useless if you're not super low HPEndure helps with this, but leaves me with no attacks.>in addition to the problem Hoge always had of ghost-types being immune to Endeavor, there are three types who are immune to SandstormSo many matches end in a dozen turns where Sandaconda can't be killed, but he can't do anything to the enemy either because his HP isn't low enough for Endeavor or the enemy is ghost, ground, rock, or steel.I'm going to try switching out Endure for Sand Tomb, but given how useless Endeavor has been, it would probably be better to give up on the Hoge strat entirely and just swap it for Substitute.
>>59402064why is it 50 anyways and not 100
>assumed my opponent would try to kill my mon (they outspeed and oneshot) so I click priority move to get value>he doesn't and I would've won if I clicked the damage movedamn I got outplayed, rip 5 streak
>>59402064run substitute/belly drum
>>59402053I only run 3 of those my team is SOVL
>>59401377They are too one dimensional, I won yesterday cause they switched the rain back on with pelipper allowing +6 azumarill to OHKO sinistcha, i was barely paying too much attention that game and almost lost from a couple dumb plays but overwhelmed another rain team 4-0 with base raichu switching into electro shot while azu set up and umbreon put things to sleep
>>59402079While that would be better than Endure for getting his HP low, it still wouldn't fix the issue of four types being immune to the strat, leaving him with no way to even kill them.At least Hoge only had to worry about ice and ghost.
>tfw you select 2 megas and can't back out
>>59401594it depends on the type of glitch; I've moved some RNG manip and ace mons with no issues, as long as the critical stuff looks correct.iirc you have to go through pal park/poke transfer/poke transporter, and those have some anti-glitch checks, and even then, if you manage to get stuff to Home, once you move them to a newer game, you're forced to delete moves to use them online
>>59402138>once you move them to a newer game, you're forced to delete moves to use them onlineDoes Champions check for whether a pokemon can legally know all the moves it has? I know it checks for whether those moves are in Champions at all, and forces you to change them if they're not.
>>59402146>Does Champions check for whether a pokemon can legally know all the moves it has?afaik no, because that's Poke Transporter/Bank/Home's jobConsidering you have to get through at least one of those to get your mon to Champions, yeahhttps://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/240672/what-does-pok%c3%a9mon-banks-legality-checker-react-to
Mega eelektross is the middest mid that's ever midded, mega scrafty comes a close 2nd
If you're tired of weather, please try cloud nine, it's so funnyPrimarina is a great partner for mega drampa, baits electro shot and solar beam, water hyper voice hits full power in the sun and against rock types in the sand, snow is more complicated unless you predict the aurora veil to fuck with themBut yeah, protect on both to play accordingly, can't wait for throat spray
>lose because I had never run into an opponent using Wide Guard before and assumed it was like Protect and couldn't be used twice in a row
>>59402197You're gonna flip when you go against a Quick Guard user for the first time.
One malestick please
>>59401505so literally just a t-tar?
>>59402183Nothing like switching in a Lightningrod mon into an Electro Shot, also Mold Breaker gets past Stamina so your mega gyarados can set up while manectric uses Howl or snarl. Azumarill is great for this too paired with base raichu who can transform into its mega and focus blast bridgimon
>>59400764>Snipe those retards and get the good stuffWhat's the best way to do this? Just use the Wanted Pokemon feature and browse the listings a couple of times a day?
>>59402207I never considered non mega manetric, but that sounds like a great support
Weedle go is still here and untraded... anon fren do you still have e.floettes to spare? :3
>post-nerf Salt Cure now does the same damage as burn, except without halving the enemy's attack and can be cured by just switching outAnd with what advantage, no types being immune to it? Only one type is immune to being burned.Salt Cure seems like shit now.
New bread. >>59402280>>59402280>>59402280>>59402275It's shit. Like I don't even think most Gargs are going to bother running it at all nowadays.
>>59402197Someone mentioned that using Protect after Wide Guard DOES work like a double Protect and gives Protect the 50% failure chance, which I had the pleasure of seeing firsthand a couple days later when it cost my opponent the game.
>>59402202sent
>>59402060Should've used Aurorus instead of Ninetales.Resists Poison.
>>59402275Game Freak realized that they accidentally let a Rock type Pokemon have something decent so they fixed it.
