It's not Rock type normally, so it would get 1.5x boost to Rock-type moves with Tera. Ability gives it 1.5x multiplier to Rock-type moves as well, so it should be 2.25x multiplier total. Someone correct me if this specific case is different.

Confirming that this is an issue: off of Surging Strikes, Showdown lists G-Max Rapid Flow is 90 Power, when it should be 130 Power: BUG STATUS: FIXED at some point

This is the first VGC team I've created. The original focus was Grimmsnarl, but it has sort of evolved into a Tailwind team, with Grimmsnarl there to provide utility that will be mentioned in the summary below. I've tried it out on showdown, and I feel like there are some obvious changes that...

Very hypothetical question: if I have a Gigantamax Grimmsnarl and the opponent switched out a Pokemon that was asleep to a Pokemon that isn't asleep, will I violate sleep clause by using G-Max snooze?

I'm not sure how much longer this will be relevant, but if your opponent has a Pokemon that's asleep in the back and you use G-Max Snooze on an awake Pokemon, will you violate the sleep clause if your opponent doesn't switch out?

They can't, but if a G-Max Corviknight is in the daycare with 2 empty moveslots and another Pokemon that it can breed with is also in the daycare and knows Defog and Roost, the G-Max Corvi will learn those moves as well

Bumpity bump

Idk wtf I just read but I loved every word of it. Technically, Kommo-o isn't guaranteed Rocks, since Banded Dragon Darts will outspeed and OHKO it, but it's about as close as you can get. I'm not sure if Overcoat is the best play, since sand only affects you after you get the Rocks up and not a...

Try a rain team? Pelipper, Barra, Darm, Tox, Ferro, Rotom-W/Corviknight/something else you think works here.

I want specific examples please.

Is there ever a reason to run Jolly over Adamant?

Hi guys, Cobalt here. With a new generation of Pokemon upon us, it would only be a matter of time before I made a competitive OU team to use on showdown. This team stems heavily from what I have available in my boxes on the switch, and is based on two Pokemon I immediately grew attached to. My...

This is the team I've been using in OU singles so far. I'm looking for any advice to improve it, but I've found decent success with it: It's a very offensive team, with the occasional Ferrothorn and Corviknight for hazard support and removal. The motivation behind this team was to build...

This is probably a stupid suggestion, but I recommend adding Crunch as an option to not be useless against Shedinja.

Marshadow only does 66.1% to Flyingceus, and that's assuming Arceus doesn't invest in HP at all; HP Ice is even weaker. Being able to take a single hit and OHKO back with STAB Judgment is precisely the definition of a check.
