Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Theres a lot of strategies I want to use, but they all require the use of the ability patch item. An item you can only get at the battle facility for 200 BP.
Hence why in my battle 49 Palmer 2 report, i'm using Sand Veil Garchomp instead of Rough Skin Garchomp.
I'm at about 164 BP right now...
I finally did it! I beat Palmer 2!
Here's the team I used to get to him.
Cloyster (Male) (Quick Ball)
Item: Focus Sash
Ability: Skill Link
Nature: Adamant
EV's: 6 HP, 252 Attack, 252 Speed
IV's. Best! Best! Best! Pretty Good, Best! Best!
Moves:
Icicle Spear
Rock Blast
Razor Shell
Shell Smash...
Hey guys. it's been a long time since i posted a run. I'm the guy who used Venomoth to get over 200 win streaks in generation 6 and 7!
Introductions aside, I'm using this exact same team to get through the first 42 battles. (done loads of breeding over Christmas)
but i'm using Garchomp instead...
So after Mimikyu red cards out the mismagius and I see espeon, I immediately switch back to Durant. X-scissor, then switch back to Mimikyu. ok cool thanks. i'm glad you replied to my post.
Just double checking the damage calculation as well for Espeon using Shadow Ball on the switch in.
252 SpA...
Thanks for adding me to the leaderboard NoCheese
My current streak is coming along nicely. I saved my game at battle 60 for the night, and I've already had a scary match which was decided in a literal coin toss. battle code below.
Battle 54: CA7G-WWWW-WWWT-T85E
I had a game shortly after...
Well I just lost another run at battle 54 because a Carracosta has sturdy. I was being extra careful planning my every step. Checking the spread sheets. seeing what movesets it might have. Its held item (i was checking for focus sash of all things). Even the ev spread. I then checked the battle...
I noticed her Drampa carries Quick Claw and Fire blast. That is absolutely terrifying for any Durant team. thankfully in my battle i was able to remove the item before it did any harm.
I had no idea that punishment even had 5 pp. wow. i could of protect/ sub spammed until it had all been used...
Well I just lost my super amazing, super singles run to Sina. SINA of all people. Wow!!
Got all the way up to a win streak of 139, with a modified version of GG Unit's winning singles team but with my trademark star from the battle Maison... Venomoth. Here's the rundown:
Durant: Male...
Having a debate at the moment for super singles with my friends, as they keep having near misses, since their plus 6 set up Pokemon from Durant strats get the board cleared thanks to Whirlwind and Roar.
My very best friend is trying to run the same Venomoth as me with Durant and he's...
I considered Tyrantrum back in ORAS Super singles. I tried it, but it ultimately lost around battle 37/38, after a string of misses. Head Smash is fun but 8 PP is awful.
I'm trying to use Venomoth again. I got a 260 Super Singles streak in ORAS using Venomoth, which I posted in Smogons Battle...
Just started playing this again and faced Kukui at battle 20 in super singles. I noticed something was wrong with a Pokemon in the battle tree spreadsheets, (Battle tree look up) based on the moves his lead Incineroar was using.
The Pokemon in question is Incineroar 3. (The only one that makes...
Just a quick question about Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. Are Totem pokemon allowed in the battle tree. because i would love to use Totem Mimikyu in my run.
This time i managed to take Durant to the mid 40's but a lead drampa used quick claw and used fire blast. i'm able to switch to my sableye which knows the move spite, and reduce that fire blast pp to zero but drampa's next attack activates the red card hold item, sending in a slowbro. i try to...
just had a strange match i lost a win streak too. Durant's entrainment fails twice on a lead Wishiwashi. it was holding no item because i used knock off from my Sableye on turn 1. wasn't much of a deal since it was only in the mid 10's (not even a 20 win streak)
Is Wishiwashi immune to ability...
After much grinding on on the GTS, (and my reluctance to pay £5 a year for pokebank) I finally got a Truant Durant in a trade. now the real fun in super singles can begin.
And with help from my mate who was able to obtain a Venonat for me from GTS i can now have my old super singles Battle...
