After playing on and off this has been my most successfully team hitting rank 1 on the ladder. Crits deal with the majority of team archetypes, high damage and ignoring stat boosts. Stone edge is the arguably the best distributed non contact move to always crit. i have managed to beat a few...

killo is easily handled by regen hydreigon. I did start runnning more spdef on garg for Noivern, but it is difficult to handle. what checks are people currently running for it, any decent punk rock users?

Broke into top 50 with this team. the idea is hazard stack and then blocking nearly all spinners/defog with garg and gholdengo. scrappy tusk to beat opposing earth eater gholdingo/ skeledrige allowing prankster wisp/encore to beat setup sweepers. Garganacl @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Good as...

I'm going to post this here... seems pretty good at trapping and catching people off guard. roaring moon has a very good stat distribution and very good defenses. I run shed tail to swap out if jaw locking onto a bad matchup, i haven't test other items Roaring Moon @ Shed Shell Ability...

pressure only reduces pp of attacking moves.

This may be obvious but i just realised that physical tera blast also ignores fluffy

Hey guys i was reading around ways to counter fluffy, and i was wondering if the new item punching glove would work as described by bulbapedia. Punching glove Effect Punching Glove increases the power of punching moves and prevents contact with targets. surely this would mean i could equip...

My thoughts on terrastalisation After playing the last couple of days, I don't believe terrastalising to be as broken as initilly thought. I have seen alot of discussion around the power of terestalisaiton type on offensive mons. The early meta always tends to be more offensive and once the...

Ah I'm glad somebody asked this :) I deal with Prison Mew by letting Mimikyu get transformed (it can't get trapped) and going into Porygon to hardwall it. Also, unrelated to the previous post, I found a lil glitch. If a prankster mon has two status moves linked, the first one will get +2...

Me I admit i have been spamming regieleki/ koko on the ladder. Regieleki is a deadweight against half the teams i face.I am surprised how many people don't protect their ground types. When i see more than one ground, its a good sack/ explosion to maintain momentum. in regards to mew, i don't...

Nice sets, for weavile any advantage to running fake out instead of ice shard, or knock off instead of assurance

SO after catching covid, isolating and playing this OM the whole week. finally topped the ladder. 1 antsdownmypants 1519 71.2% 1670 ± 29 Things i have learnt, that structure my best team Electric terrain is very match up dependent, but can easily overwhelm unprepared teams. It is easy...

I agree completely, dragapult is difficult to manage but i have been managing with priority. Volcorona is serverly restricting team building.

anyone got some good dracovish (Water-dark) counters (not checks), that isn't a dead weight on it own/ lose to other rain sweepers Edit. I think i found what i was looking for Bewear @ Leftovers Ability: Fluffy EVs: 216 Atk / 40 Def / 252 Spe Adamant Nature - Dragon Claw - Drain...
