  1. SwSh Battle Facilities Discussion & Records

    it's good for REALLY easy BP, that's about it. But you also don't get much per battle - only 2, if I remember right? For Singles, I just ran...4 attack Mewtwo for the Sw/Sh Battle Tower: Psystrike/Aura Sphere/Thunderbolt/maybe Ice Beam. The other two team members were just filler in the...
  2. April 7* Raid: Samurott (Tera Bug)

    Ran the Extreme Killernite set from BSS Series 1 to get mine. Took a few tries, but ended up getting a group of randoms with a Corviknight, another Dragonite, and a Koraidon. The Screech support from the Corviknight helped IMMENSELY. Prior to that, I had tried Walking Wake (which was somewhat...

    Haxorus? Depending on the Tera it chooses, anyway. If it retains the ground weakness (i.e. Fire) you can still EQ it. I'm looking forward to using Flutter Mane, for sure. When I used Roaring Moon for some raids, I threw a Weakness Policy on it. If it survived a supereffective hit, it...

    Looks pretty solid. Other than Hydreigon's Tera type, the only thing I might change myself (which is purely because I don't know much about Cloyster in this meta), is something other than Tera Ice? I know you get the extra damage on Ice Shard/Icicle Spear, but I'm not sure how much that...

    I haven't watched too many streamers do BSS, and I stream it as well. I've thought about switching to a stall-oriented team, but it's boring.
  6. Resource Scarlet & Violet BSS Discussion

    When I first got to Master Ball, I was 35k rank. Peaked at 13k, currently over 100k after a lot of losses. Tried a few different Pokemon and I like a few of them: Haxorus, Gholdengo, Rotom-W. I want to try Sylveon and I have it EV'd, but I generally open with Terastallization/a Dragon. Even...

    Fairy Tera *might* be useful for the Dragon immunity, but I also feel like it's too niche to bother with it. I thought about Tera Blast, but couldn't find a reason to include it on the Moxie set; I ended up breeding a Timid/Special Salamence that I wanted to try in doubles/VGC (but that veers...

    It's not specifically a Salamence team, but I have been using it as a lead (my full team is in the Team Bazaar thread) Salamence @ Life Orb Jolly Moxie Tera type: Steel 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe - Dual Wingbeat - Outrage - Earthquake - Dragon Dance On occasion, I'll see lead Baxcalibur and...

    Been streaming my ranked battles on Twitch, peaked at around 13k so far, Master Ball Tier. The team: P95NMB - :Salamence: :Garganacl: :Annihilape: :Dragonite: :Jolteon: :Breloom: EVs are pretty standard/uniform: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe. Garganacl is 252 HP/252 SpDef/4 Def. Salamence is a solid...
  10. Gen III Battle Frontier Discussion and Records

    If you're emulating (and you have a Twitch/Youtube account), all you'd need is to stream it, which is extremely easy: you can set it up in OBS without ever using a capture card - window capture and you're all set.
  11. BDSP Battle Tower Discussion & Records

    Agreed. I ran into an Icy Wind Suicune earlier in Masters Doubles, and I was annoyed that it was able to use it while we can't. Honestly, the part that annoys me most about that is that some Pokemon I'd like to use? I can't, because the moves I want aren't available. I'll have to set up my...
  12. SwSh Battle Facilities Discussion & Records

    In my limited experience with the old legendaries so far (using an old Suicune set, which Jumpman used in a previous Battle Tower. In fact, the Suicune was from him, so he likely remembers what it had. Nicknamed Holy Water), he was pretty much untouchable. Granted, a defensive powerhouse like...

    Didn't even know it was keeper this year. I also forgot about the draft, but my team looked pretty solid. I tweaked it a bit because of guys on the DL (RIP Cliff Lee) & I like it. Good luck this year all.

  16. Ubers is now a tier; a new Metagame called Anything Goes is added; M-Ray is banned from Ubers

    Yes and no. It DOES become more manageable, but the problem is that it can still rip teams apart after an SD. I posted two calcs on an earlier page, but you can run the calcs Chaos posted & just adjust them to not include Life Orb.
  17. Ubers is now a tier; a new Metagame called Anything Goes is added; M-Ray is banned from Ubers

    That's part of the problem. Yes, Mega Rayquaza is weaker without LO, there's no denying that. The problem is, it's still capable of ripping teams apart - it's still got base 180 Attack, Swords Dance, Priority, and Dragon Ascent. Here's two calcs I did just now on IRC, both with SD/without LO...
