Yo. Wanted to pass a team with final gambit Mega Staraptor that went on a big streak up into Champion tier. It's an ethical version of Staraptor with no stat drop moves on the team and can serve as a late game menance, or early game deletion to set up mega metagross in the back.

Hey Poke and community. I've been playing showdown for a couple of months now, and I haven't gotten further than 1500, but this is my team, I created it myself by watching your videos, and I would love it if u checked it out. It's open for anyone who is game as well.
It's double choice with Rotom and Scizor, and double AV with Iron Treads and Volcarona, an adamant Grimmsnarl with prankster and loaded dice Kyurem. I'm telling you, this team is pure fire.

https://pokepast.es/8c56e38f07c3db96 yoooo I almost hit #1 on PokeAAAbilities with Munkidori! This thing has hard carried me up the ladder. I went on a 19/1 win streak peaking at #11 on the ladder before I decayed. I would love to see a vid with it if you ever get the time! Pig Perfect out, Peace!

Team Sheet

Hello,

This is a Pokeabilities AAA team I made that peaked at #50 (~1500 elo) on the ladder. It's a HO team featuring Ursaring, and Battle Bond Gredninja.

Not the strongest team as it's extremely weak into First Impression spam/Phys Eleki with galvanize, but extremely fun to play outside of those matchups. No replays saved because I'm forgetful, and matches against higher elo players are more rare.
____________________________________

Set Explanations:

Araquanid:
Endeavor + Sturdy is meant to help set up KOs for Gredninja
Mirror Coat helps against key threats the team is weak against like Regieleki
Surf is to get around fluffy Corviknight and to scout for water immunities for Gredninja
The 0 IVs/EVs in Def are specifically to go into Custap range against Hisuian Samurott

Hoopa:
Self Explanatory, Rare spinblocker, big damage. Can swap Psychic with Psyshock for better Stall/SpD Wall matchups. Easily replaceable, I just wanted to put them on the team.

Talonflame:
Brave Bird spam is good against fast threats/Other priority spammers like Toxic Boost Breloom. Usually good to cleanup teams after you get chip on walls.
Flare Blitz is just general coverage/Damage against Dazzling mons.
Defog is for the rare rare occasion for hazard removal. Replaceable move if you swap Hoopa for an offensive great tusk with Rapid Spin.
Tailwind helps against Fast threats with immunity against Priorities. Also works as a secondary temporary sticky web in late game.

Ursaring:
Quick Feet lets it outspeed mons like Great Tusk/Galarian Moltres. It has a speed of 313 after being poisoned.
Just spam facade. it 2HKOs non fully Def Corv/Non Fluffy Corv. Most mons take a lot of chip from this.
Protect lets you get poisoned/good against first impression.
Throat chop rarely used but good against ghosts and prevents parting shot from Pech if it's full Def

Gredninja:
Water shuriken is for priority mons like Talonflame/Breloom, it's also good to finish up mons after an Araquanid endeavor.

Regidrago:
Dragon Energy Dragon Energy Dragon Energy Dragon Energy Dragon Energy

Hey Joey, this is a fun Pokebilities AAA team that I have been using recently. I'm currently at #100 on the ladder and steadily climbing. It's a dual screens offense team with Regenerator Grimmsnarl.

Additionally, it features Pokémon like Bulk Up Wind Rider Great Tusk, Stamina Hatterene, and (my favorite) Well-Baked-Body Power Trip Corviknight for surprise sweeps with the defensive bird. Stored Power is banned from the tier, but surprisingly Power Trip is not.

Have fun!

---

Boring Usage Tips: Well-Baked Body synergizes very well with Power Trip, raising its power by 40 every time Corviknight is hit by a fire-type move. You can change Well-Baked-Body to Volt Absorb if needed, but I found more set-up opportunities with the fire immunity despite there already being another fire immunity on the team. If you come across a troublesome electric type like Zapdos, try to use agility to become faster than them and use Roost to get rid of the weakness to electric.

Try to use Heatran to trap Alomomola or Slowking-Galar early on, so they cannot scald burn or thunder wave potential sweepers. Water Absorb is the preferred ability, primarily so alomomola cannot flip turn out of magma storm.

Covert Cloak Hatterene protects against salt cure Garganacl, flash cannon sp. def drops, thunder paralysis, malignant chain toxic, etc. She is your most reliable sweeper on the team. Works great into Guts Breloom's bullet seed and corrosion pokemon.

Wind Rider Great Tusk is immune to Zapdos's Thunder, Hurricane, and Heat Wave, gaining +1 atk on the latter two. Use Zapdos as set up fodder whenever possible. Otherwise, Zapdos can be a major issue for the team. You can alternatively replace wind rider with sap sipper to surprise Meowscarada Flower Trick, Rillaboom Grassy Glide, and Solar Beam users as well and get +1 atk.

Hi Joey,

I built a fun(?) stall VGC team based around Toxapex and M-Dragalge. Toxic and Infestation do a lot of chip very quickly and regen pivoting around with sinistcha and Incineroar give this team a ton of staying power.

Gambit gives much needed priority to deal with Basculegion and fast psychic types like M-Delphox. Mamo almost never comes, but Ice Shard OHKOs non-bulky chomp and Stomping Tantrum does massive damage to Gambit and other steels. Draglage is EV'd to live Stomping Tantrum/EQ from full health

Dragalge isn't necessarily amazing, but it can put in work. I also can't figure out any other way to use it. I haven't moved it to Champions yet, but would send you a team code once I do if you're interested!

https://pokepast.es/5f9d08d22075a906
Joey, I built a cheesy King's Rock beat up Dragapult team featuring mega staraptor and stole a couple of good wins from some real teams and cracked top 500 Champion's ladder, I know the doctor will be able to pilot this team excellently for a good video. (P.S: Curse excadrill always catches unsuspecting Corviknights off guard since you'll be slower so they can't roost or u-turn on you)

Extremely fun team. Got a 13 win streak in Casual and 1950s Master Rank with this.

Kommo O is kind of like Sash Chomp but has Priority and focusing on his Dragon Stab. Flame also super nice into Corvi, Mawile, Ghold, Sciz.

Snorlax is the same set is before. He is the catch all guy. If you see a threat then Snorlax will most likely handle him.

Arcanine is a very troll defensive set. With this set you beat Arch, Metagross, Mega Raptor if you switch in on the turn they Mega, Mega Maw, Scarf Meows, etc. Snarl is really cool because with it you you can sit on Zard Y, Volc etc. Really good for burning Screens turns vs Slowking boosting special attacker.

Hey Joey :]
I wanted to share my team that I made that got me to Double Masters in Champions.

I usually lead Weavile and Farigiraf, Fake Out + Trick Room. If Weavile survives turn one, Fling does surprisingly huge damage + you get a lot of under speeds with it.

Mega Camerupt does huge damage with its stab, Hatt can help get max power eruptions with life dew, does good reliable damage with dazzling and psychic, and it is a great back up Trick Roomer.

Mega Chesnaught is a really good answer into sand and rain teams and ID+Body Press can put up some crazy numbers. Kingambit is great for anti intimidate and against all the ghosts running around, which double ghost usually stops my lead strat of running Weavile + Giraffe and getting a Fake Out off.

I wanted to say Road (Weavile) is my ribbon master. I hope to get to Champion rank with this team so I can get that final title to "offically" have all obtainable ribbons/marks/titles for him.

Thank you Joey for all the videos :] I've been subbed a long time and I love seeing the content everytime it comes up, and thank you for letting us share our teams :]

very fun trickroom team with dual mega mawile and scrafty, follow me maushold goes crazy and wide lens population bomb is fun. armarouge goes crazy into zard y teams and mega staraptor

https://pokepast.es/e875048e76726e7a

Hey joey, this is a Mega Mawile team. The team goes through ultraball with ease(excluding the hax ofc). The team focus on setting up mawile for either early setup sweep or late game sweep. With Swords Dance, mawile can one hit ko most bulky mons like garchomp after fake out. The team biggest opps(meaning opponent) is mega swampert rain, where swampert can easily sweep the team. This is where froslass came in and set up the team with aurora veil to hopefully chip down the mega swampert. Although this mode can fight swampert rain but its still inconsistent as you need to make lord plays to take over the game. I hope you can check it out and give me insight on how to handle swampert rain team better, cause right now froslass and sylveon feel the least useful in many scenario which mawile usually dominate. Thank you for reading!

These are teams from the builder Eniigma. hes an LC legend with eclectic builds and lots of great ideas i thought you might appreciate it. He plays weird lines and somehow always has the tools he needs for the lines its incredible.

:charmander::mienfoo::vullaby::mudbray::glimmet::foongus:

This utility charmander set does the most stuff charm can do. The offensive setup sets are kinda mid but charm can burn key threats and force switches against certain mons (ie foongus and sandshrew alola) this allows for dragon tail to chip mons with spikes.

Burn allows for mienfoo to setup in the back. If you dont like sd taunt, try sd substitute. Taunt is for bluffing the set and stopping impish mudbray with roar, foongus with spore, vullaby setting up a plot.

More heat coming soon joe

Team ID : 12P4KMUSP9

Was able to reach Master Ball 1800 in a single day and am currently on a 6 win streak, best ever was 8. I had selected Snorlax as my Starter and am still using him, Aboma, and Gambit from my initial 6.

The team might not be the best but I kind of liked that I had to use whatever I got because I would never have used Abomasnow but he ended up with the highest wins on the team (53). Snorlax is another mon I was surprised by. Always getting a KO + damage/ yawn on another.

Overall a pretty fun time I had playing BSS.

yo, long time pokémon player and lurker here. I was a bit tired of the M-A regulation meta already so I wasn't planning on climbing this split, but I got a last minute urge to hit Master Ball before the season ended and wanted to share the team that got me there. I'm pretty proud of it with the queen of queens, Mega Gardevoir, because I couldn't find any MGarde teams I liked lol. I think it turned out pretty cool, with a few nice techs so I wanted to share, even if it's somewhat too late

Here's the team, and there's also a team ID for pokémon champions in there

the main mode of the team is Expanding Force with male Meowstic to set up the terrain, which doubles as a relatively fast fake out user. Talonflame is the tailwind setter that stops Sneasler dead and flare blitzes the steels Garde can't Aura Sphere, as well as getting priority Acrobatics before Whimsicott can set up Tailwind on their side if they're not max speed. Gardevoir's is also EV'd to outspeed max speed scarf Basculegion under Tailwind. Maus and Sinischa are just neat redirectors with some anti Trick Room measures, and Tauros-aqua is the Intimidate support which doubles down on the Fighting coverage with some last resort priority

I'd love to say I breezed through to Master Ball rank with this team, but god knows I'm not good enough lol. Still, I think it's cool enough to share, I hope you like it!

Hey Joey, I posted this RMT of my Rabsca Gravity Sand team that I used to get #10 on the OU ladder, but I posted it right before your channel got hacked lol, so I figured I’d send it to you here in case you haven’t seen it with being busy with that whole deal.

https://pokepast.es/8899b206aa445de2

It’s honestly a really fun team and I’ve had a lot of consistent success with it on the high ladder (it legit raised my GXE by like 6%). Gravity is such a fun team archetype that doesn’t really get explored often because there’s not a lot of great setters and it’s hard to take advantage of it, but Lando is a great setter of it since it can also abuse it, and Rabsca being able to revive mons as well as set Gravity actually makes it a decent strat.

Excadrill with Gravity up is almost unwallable, and Darkrai with 100% accurate Focus Blast and Thunder lets it hit basically the whole meta except for Fairies, not to mention Zap Cannon Zapdos (83.3% accurate under Gravity). And even if you don’t get Gravity up, you can gamble with the low accuracy. And even if you miss, you can revive your mon and gamble again.

(I also have this version with Boots and Memento on Rabsca if you want more consistent momentum into a Gravity abuser, but I think Leppa might be a bit more consistent
https://pokepast.es/16a6b68f60b05108
You can also use Tera Grass on Drill for Oger/Rillaboom but Tera Ground is great for brute forcing through defensive structures, up to you).

Joey i absolutely… made a team lol
Nah so beside the triple ground, triple fire weakness peep this Bibz HO. XD got 1 win and immediately had to post, enjoy this replay!

https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9nationaldex-2631070377-7y07oq34nlc505xwv7bso5jwq5wc6vqpw

Bibarel got two kills on Slowbro and Ting lu lol

Adamant SD Simple Bibz sounded kinda nasty to me with quick attack, crunch sounded good for ghold potentially, and ended up putting aqua jet to clean up landos
& weakened zards & etc

feat. webs for maximum Bibz goobage & rain with no swift swim haha

https://pokepast.es/326d4b9a5a753a2d



was thinking with webs Bibz outspeeds thunder clap with quick attack and that was the inspo

*i made ghold timid later because i got outsped by choice scarf urshifu under webs

this team is really bad

https://pokepast.es/d5eb1034a7a9e25d https://pokepast.es/a65cd9f26574413b Hey Joey, me and my friend made some cool scrafty teams using the core of guard dog scrafty, regenerator jirachi, and physdef zapdos. The abilities scrafty gets all synergize with each other to become a really dangerious set up sweeper. It gets Intim to set up along with shed skin for status used to stop a sweep/help with rest and moxie gives you much needed attack boosts which are greatly appreciated on a Mon with only base 90 that isn’t invested in and guard dog means you can’t be phased or intimed. The only real things that hamper it are fairys which are kind of rare in pokeabilities aaa and unaware/haze. I really hope you have fun with these teams

https://pokepast.es/a0880ae59174048f
Hey Joey, I know that you are really into Pokebilities AAA At the moment, so I tried the tier myself. I managed to peak at number one (1649 elo) on the ladder with a fresh account I made a few days ago. Anyways, here is the team I used for that. It features some pretty cool sets and is stromg both offensively and defensively. Hope, you like the team. Would be great to see it in a video.
Have fun
Max

https://pokepast.es/2994a7d1ea9ab865 - :ohnepixel german accent: WASS??? a decent team with no gimmick? almost, it has an electrode! it's an antimeta mon which breaks the corviknight alomomola ting lu regen core which has been running rampant and disrupting my fun, go get 'em and aim to be a champion!
Also mold breaker pranskter encore tinkaton is exellent vs queenly majesty set up, you steal their item with pickpoket and ignore lando intimidate
with this being said i will say, if you see a haxorus RUN, and hold ur balloon otherwise eq might 6 - 0 if they damage ur mola

https://pokepast.es/0c62e8326771557a - the fabled hariyama team, enam also goated, same as mimikyu - i'll call it triple fairy room

This team got me back into compcompetitive pokemon. Not the most original thing but im showing this moreso as just a self serving thing. https://pokepast.es/fe25749a533cccde

Hey Joey, I recently hit Gen 9 National Dex ladder #77 with a Snorlax and Krookodile team... Thought you might have fun using it and I hope you get to use it someday: https://pokepast.es/d21022765fa470c3


I know there have been far more impressive Natdex feats but I just really wanted to show it to you once regardless because I really enjoy your videos... Sorry if it's not impressive enough

Idea is simple, set up webs vs most matchups and you have 2 wall breakers. Snorlax mainly takes hits from sun mons, walls Ceruledge with this set and is a good bait for fighting type mons, delay some momentum with yawn (feel free to swap it out)and ofc gets to explode on them...

You can use Moxie Krook too, both work well in fact... But I keep intimidate vs Kingambit and stuff.

Other potential changes that can be made is skill swap over stun spore for Ribombee but yeah that's mostly about it.

I also somehow liked 4 attacks Medicham with zero priority, in a way helps check many things such as gholdengo as well

Sorry I didn't take a better screenshot lol but yeah there's that as well...

Hope you like it or use it someday!

Champions Mega Lopunny + Skill Swap Mega Chimecho + Hydrapple

https://pokepast.es/6c4bbd01efd1ad64

Has both a Tailwind mode and a Trick Room mode. Got me to 1800+ ELO both seasons as a new player. Main modes are:
1. Lopunny, Talonflame, Incineroar, and Glimmora
2. Chimecho, Incineroar, Glimmora, Hydrapple (Skill Swap can remove Incin/Glim Ground weaknesses, also reactivates Intimidate with Incin, can remove Defiant/Competitive/Inner Focus from opps)
3. Lopunny, Incineroar, Glimmora, Hydrapple (usually for anti-Trick Room)

Pokebilities AAA fake stall
https://pokepast.es/550289adf1c3e360

You can lead Heatran and pretend it's earth eater only to lock the opponent with magma storm for a free kill. It also solo'd a regidrago. Primordial Sea Alomomola took a surprising amount of kills. Guts breloom gets to 1182 attack after swords dance and kills things it has no business killing.
