:dragonite::diancie-mega::magnezone::victini::tapu fini::landorus-therian: wpnite+subendia: My take on the dnite sample team, but with zone>ferro. I find ferro to be a pretty big momentum sap when paired with fini since setting up spikes is counterintuitive with two sr weak, and trading hazards...

:kyurem-black::tapu koko::hawlucha::magearna::gyarados-mega::landorus-therian: zicekyub+specskoko: It was actually originally my team that inspired the modern day xtra ho that features koko+medi, but I still fancy gyara for this build since it gives the team double intimidate for easier entry...

Hello. I wanted to do one final team dump to get some closure on this tier since I feel like I left this generation somewhat prematurely. This is an effort to share my collective knowledge that I’ve amassed from my time playing this game in hopes to help newer players understand the tier better...

Just going to group these since they are very similar. I definitely see where you all are coming from and agree with you. I do not think boots is obviously broken enough to warrant a ban, but I do believe it is an unhealthy aspect of the metagame that should be examined. There are definitely not...

Hello there. I'm just a washed and crusty player watching from the sidelines, but I would like to open discourse on this topic to gauge the opinion from the tournament community as a whole, regardless of your skill level in the tier. Before getting into the issue of gen 8, I just wanted to...

https://pokepast.es/e9c8eff3c1fc9279 sub endeavor kyurem hazard stack offense - pretty offensive bulky offense team that takes advantage of some huge threats in the metagame. specs kyurem is a bit too prediction reliant and sub roost is a bit too passive for my taste, so i opted for this set...

being the perfectionist that i am, i optimized all of the teams here i think are still worth using or have some sort of value to it variety wise. also removed the ones that i didn't think were worth keeping and added some new ones that i made or appropriated from others that i thought were...

if your facing blissey that mon inherently gives up momentum and can't do much regardless. i would gladly give up hp on nido to trade for bliss since nido can take 3 stosses at full. if nido is too low then switching to helm clef after you taunt it also works since you can also encore it into...

hi i was bored so i made some teams. this metagame is a lot more diverse compared to home and dlc1 so it gave me enough motivation to attempt something like this again. sorry in advance for the dull tone as opposed to my usual artistic flair, but teambuilding is pretty much the only thing i...

This thread has seen better days but considering this tournament is finally over, it would be a waste not to give credence to all the sets and ideas that made it all possible for us to get the trophy. i'll only be mentioning sets that aren't particularly seen in standard play, but have...

not really sure how i want to start this post, so i guess I'll just type as I go. this tournament has been a roller coaster of extreme highs and lows for me personally and without a doubt one of the hardest, most stressful and time-consuming of endeavors i put forth in any tournament on this...

Since i'm not playing this season, i figured i can offer some insight this time around on some really banger match ups :p 1. ABR VS. 16. Santu [75-25] obviously the favored player, but i wouldn't put it past santu to not get run over as easily as you would think. most people wouldn't have...
