Here's your healthy meta, /vp/
>>
Competitive Pokemon has never been taking seriously
>>
you are literally in a thread with an op picture from an event where people take it seriously
>>
>>59624604
>same exact teams
Jesus fucking Christ
>>
>>59624604
I thought mega dragonite was worse then the normal one. What happened?
>>
>>59624745
there's 3 held items that are different in their teams
>>
>>59624770
Guy won worlds with it so it got popular
>>
>swiss round 2

Oh, you're right, they're entirely different then! My mistake.
>>
>>59624604
>equal teams

So it's purely skill
>>
>>59624604
this is why much of the fanbase doesn't care about competitive
and also why gamefreak is already planning on shifting to a different style of combat for the main games
i'm glad compfaggotry will be contained to this shitty mobileslop "game"

Competetive Pokémon is about having the higher numbers and type matchup, not skill.
You need the best team to win.
It isn't like Street Fighters where a highly skilled master of the game can beat an intermediate player with Dan Hibiki, the worst character in the game.
>>
>>59624979
>Higher number
It's all about stacking them multipliers
Stab, +stats, type effectiveness, helping hands, weather, ground, it's all about stacking
>>
Pokefags
Please play other videogames
People use the strongest options at the highest levels of competitive play
Always
This is not a flaw
>>
>>59625030
There are over 1000 pkmn, surely there should be multiple viable options for teams of 6?
>>
>>59625030
People have reached high GSP and even won professional fights with King Dedede in Smash Bros, a bottom tier character, notorious for being slow.
In fact, in Smash people use every character. Because it's a game of skill, reflexes, tactics and quick thinking.
>>
>>59625047
Because Smash was made to be an actual game, p*kem*n is just a face to make shillmons look good
>>
>>59625043
>1000 pkmn
more like 100 because gamefreak can't port models
>>
>>59625055
Geg, true!
>>
>>59625047
>>59625054
>GSP
No one cares you wifi warrior. Ultimate is horribly balanced and everyone is running the S tiers. Fucking retard unironically bringing up Smash like it doesn't prove the point.
>>
>>59625054
Most of meta pokemon are not shillmons lol just look op only dragonite is popular the rest literally who
>>
>>59625145
>Incineroar
>not a shillmon
>>
>>59625157
they'll nerf it at the start of gen 10.
>>
>>59625043
>There are over 1000 pkmn, surely there should be multiple viable options for teams of 6?
>there are thousands of yugioh archetypes, so clearly the best ones are not always a bunch of 5 right?
>>
>Dexcut Virizion.
>Pokémon fans still get the game and buy the starterpack, subscription and battlepass.
This shows Pokémon fans are truely brainless cattle who will buy anything.

here's your virizion bro

THANK YOU GAY DRAGON
>>
>>59624889
Mirrors in Pokemon just come down to picking a good lead and winning speed ties.
>>
>>59625210
Except they didn't even include this fraud.
>>
>>59625222
>fraud
>looks 10 times better than virizitroon
>>
>>59625242
Still not included in Champions so it doesn't matter.
>>
>>59624604
Doubles are always a shit show like this. Vgc makes it fucking worse for sure but you just don't have as much room for creative team building in doubles.
You really only have meta, meta breaker and gimmick in any doubles format.

Singles are just better because more shit gets overlooked and 1 mon out at a time means you can get legitimate usage out of those overlooked elements.

Doubles are just more fast paced which is cool if your into that.
>>
>>59625287
Singles
>Turn 1008
Doubles
>Everyone uses the exact same team
>>
>people want a goddamn JRPG to be skill-based
>>
>>59625201
>dexcut verizion
I will by your game now
>>
>>59625390
>Rips out your heart like an over the top Mortal Kombat villain.
>>
>>59625399
all that because he insulted your swordhead deer tranny?
