Since I'm done playing Reg J and there's only 8 days left of Regulation J on cart, here's the final version of my team! If you're reading this after the 5th of January 2026, feel free to use this team on friendly competitions or...
If you're looking for a BSS player's perspective, I'd be happy to share with you what I think about them. I play on cartridge ranked battles.

I wanted to push myself a little bit on the last days but I started uni and I have less chances to ladder.
Gonna do my best to make these less frequent sessions count, good luck with...
One change I suggested while discussing Reg J updates that I wanted to highlight is Caly Ice dropping from A+ to A-
EKiller Arceus in particular is heavily shaping the metagame and its presence is giving a hard time to Caly Ice. Its stalling/setup opportunities can be denied with Taunt and it's...
