cant say

So I was able to get a team transferred over from Y (shoutout Lady Valkyrie) and locked my Battle Box, since I normally do this before the comp starts I didn't know that it forces you into a battle straight away if the competition is running. Not a big deal except that my DS had been on red for a while and I didn't have my charger handy.
The guys team looked pretty standard in team preview, Cres and Groudon were there so obviously there's gonna be Trick Room shenanigans, he also had Mawile and RayQ so I figured he might have some weird non-mega spread on Ray.
He proceeded to lead with Ray+Crobat, turns out Crobat was Inner Focus (I suck at double, thought for sure it would be infiltrator) and was able to set up Tailwind while Ray Protected. Luckily Xerneas isn't OHKOd by Dragon Ascent so I'm able to take it out with Dazzling Gleam (even though Crobat had Haze). He then sent out Cres who took me out with Ice Beam, and then regular Maw in the back! If it weren't for a Play Rough miss on my Ray I would have lost!
I'll hopefully be able to play a bunch of games when I'm home from basketball, so I'll be posting updates on my experience. Stay tuned for 'cant say learns doubles'
tl;dr support Crobat is cool
edit: lol, reading that battle description back reads horribly. I think I was just trying not to divulge much about my teamnot that it would give away anything
